OPPO A6v: Dimensity 6300 CPU, 6,500mAh battery, 50-megapixel camera

OPPO has introduced two new big-battery budget phones. There’s the OPPO A6i+ and — the one we’re looking at today — the OPPO A6v. The OPPO A6v comes with a 6,500mAh battery. That’s slightly smaller than the A6i+’s 7,000mAh capacity. Both phones do have 45W charging. They also share the same MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor, with the A6v having 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. Sadly, it still ships with ColorOS 15 based on Android 15, instead of the newer version. The A6v is IP64-rated for dust and splash resistance and has glove and wet-screen touch support. For the cameras, there’s a 50-megapixel main camera on the back. But for selfies, you only get a 5-megapixel sensor. The OPPO A6v is now available in China for CNY1,199 (~Php10,100). Would they launch it globally? We may or may not find out soon. OPPO A6v Specs Android 15, ColorOS 15 Dual SIM, Dual Standby 6.75-inch HD+ IPS display, 1520 x 720 pixel resolution, ~256ppi 120Hz variable refresh rate,...

Anker launches Solix C2000 Gen 2 Power Station for off-grid use

Anker-Solix-C2000-Gen-2-Power-Station

If you’ve ever wanted to run a microwave at a campsite or power heavy tools from your van, a new power station from Anker might be the solution. The company has launched the Solix C2000 Gen 2, a heavy-duty portable power bank aimed at campers, van-lifers, and remote workers who need serious electricity far from the grid.

The Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 power station delivers a continuous 2,400 watts of power, with a surge capacity that can jump to 4,000 watts to start demanding motors. Anker says this means it can handle things like electric cookers, power tools, portable air conditioners, and most kitchen appliances you’d find in a home.

It’s not light, weighing in at 18.9 kg, but it is designed to be carried by one person.

Inside is a large 2,048 watt-hour (over 170,000mAh) lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery. This type of battery is known for longevity over being lightweight. Anker claims the battery can withstand over 4,000 complete charge cycles while maintaining performance, which they suggest could mean a functional life of more than ten years with daily use.

Using a wall outlet and solar panels simultaneously, the Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 can recharge from empty to 80% in roughly 45 minutes, thanks to a maximum dual-input charging rate of 2,600 watts. Using just a wall outlet, it can accept up to 2,300 watts.

For off-grid scenarios, it can be charged by solar panels with a maximum input of 800 watts, from a 12V car outlet, or from a fuel-powered generator. This flexibility is key for users who move between different power sources on long trips.

On the front panel are two high-speed USB-C ports, each capable of delivering 140 watts. That’s enough to quickly charge multiple laptops, phones, cameras, or drones without extra power adapters.

For users whose power needs grow, Anker offers an optional expansion battery. Adding one doubles the total energy storage from 2,048 watt-hours to 4,096 watt-hours (4 kWh), which could support longer stays off-grid or powering high-wattage devices for many hours.

With its high price, substantial weight, and professional-grade power specs, the Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 is clearly targeting users with defined, heavy power needs rather than casual weekend campers. It is now available in select global markets.

What does the “IP” rating on your smartphone mean?

If you look at your new phone’s specifications, you will notice something like “IP69 Water and Dust Protection.” This is a common selling point that phone manufacturers and brands show on their specifications. At first glance, it may appear too technical, but it’s actually straightforward. What does the IP code mean? The “IP” in the IP code stands for Ingress Protection, an internationally recognized standard defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that indicates the level of dust and water protection of a gadget, such as a mobile phone or other electronic device. As you notice, the letters IP are usually followed by a mix of numbers and/or letters, like ‘IP69’ or ‘IPX7,’ indicating their water and dust protection rating.  We already mentioned what IP stands for. Now, let’s look at the next two digits. What does the first digit mean? The first digit after IP indicates solid particle protection, including dust, wires, or body parts. It will range from ...
