Sep 12, 2023

Xiaomi is set to launch the 13T and 13T Pro smartphones globally on September 26th in Berlin. Ahead of the launch, renders of the upcoming phones have leaked online, revealing their design. The European price of the devices has also been leaked.

The renders, which were shared by tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore, show the Xiaomi 13T and 13T Pro in three color options: black, light green, and light blue. Both phones have a similar design, with a flat display and a punch-hole camera cutout in the top-left corner. The rear camera module is also similar, with a triple-lens setup and a Leica branding.

Both phones are expected to share many features, including a 6.67-inch 144Hz AMOLED display with 1,220 x 2,712 pixels resolution and a peak brightness of 2,600 nits. They will also be IP68-rated and have Gorilla Glass 5 protection for their displays.

Apart from the display, the 13T duo will allegedly have a 50MP main (IMX707 sensor), 50MP tele camera (50mm lens), and a 12MP ultra-wide (15mm), plus a 20MP selfie module.

The rumored specs for the chipsets and charging are where the 13T diverges from the 13 Pro. The latter is expected to feature a Dimensity 9200+ chipset and a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging. The regular Xiaomi 13T will get the Dimensity 8200-Ultra instead and a 5,000mAh battery with slower 67W charging. However, both phones will be the first in the Xiaomi family to get top-notch software support, with four OS updates and five years of security patches.

As for the pricing, the Xiaomi 13T with 8GB of RAM and 256GB storage will reportedly cost €700. Whereas, the Xiaomi 13T Pro is said to be priced at €900 for the 12GB + 512GB configuration option.

iPhone 15 Pro Could Get Up to 8GB RAM, 1TB Storage

Sep 12, 2023

The upcoming iPhone 15 Pro is expected to be a major upgrade over the current generation. It is rumored to have a periscope zoom lens, a titanium frame, and a USB-C port. Now, a report suggests it is expected to come with 8GB of RAM and a storage capacity of up to 1TB.

According to a recent report from MacRumors, Apple has tested 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage configurations for the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

These storage options would be the same as those offered on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. There were some rumors that Apple might offer a 2TB storage option for the iPhone 15 Pro, but MacRumors suggests there’s no evidence to support this claim.

As for the RAM, Apple is planning to use LPDDR5 DRAM for the iPhone 15 Pro. MacRumors says that two RAM configurations were tested: 6GB and 8GB, although it is unclear which configuration Apple will choose for the final mass production units.

But the RAM configuration may vary depending on the storage capacity of the phone. However, a recent report from TrendForce suggests that Apple will offer 8GB of RAM on all iPhone 15 Pro models. This means that the 6GB configuration may have been scrapped. The RAM for the new iPhones is reportedly supplied by Samsung, Micron, and SK Hynix.

Ultimately, we will have to wait until the iPhone 15 series is officially announced tonight at the Wonderlust event to know for sure what storage and RAM options will be offered.

In related news, Spigen, a case maker, shared an image of an alleged iPhone 15 case ahead of Apple’s event. The case shows an oval-shaped button instead of the classic mute switch, suggesting that the iPhone 15 Pro will have a new Action button.

Spigen shared the photo in a tweet with the caption “something different”. This is more than a hint that the mute button will be replaced with the Action button.

HMD Global to Launch Own Smartphone Brand After Years of Making Nokia Phones

By

Sep 12, 2023

HMD Global, the brand licensee of Nokia Mobile, has announced plans to launch its own smartphone brand. The company co-founder and chairperson, Jean-Francois Baril, made the announcement on LinkedIn, saying “We are establishing an original HMD brand.”

The new HMD-branded smartphones will be introduced alongside the Nokia-branded devices. Baril said that the new brand will also bring collaborations with “exciting new partners”, but these partners have not yet been disclosed.

The decision to establish its own brand is a significant one for HMD Global. The company has been manufacturing Nokia-branded smartphones since 2016, and the Nokia brand has a long and respected history in the mobile phone industry. However, the smartphone market is increasingly competitive, and HMD Global is likely looking to differentiate itself from other brands.

No additional information has been released about the new HMD products, including a potential release date. However, Baril’s posts suggest that HMD Global’s independent smartphones will continue to focus on a clean user experience, 5G, and easy repairability, which are common features on Nokia-branded smartphones.

Additionally, Nokia phones released in recent years have largely been budget-to-mid-range devices. It seems that future HMD devices may follow suit, as Baril has suggested that the company will continue to “design for a more sustainable and affordable future.”

Whatever the case may be, the launch of the HMD-branded smartphone brand is a major development for the company. It remains to be seen how successful the new brand will be, but HMD Global is clearly determined to make a mark on the market.

Nintendo Switch 2: Fans May Have to Wait Longer Than They Think

Sep 12, 2023

Nintendo Switch 2 is undoubtedly one of the products we’ve heard the most about lately. As the release date for the Japanese gaming giant’s eagerly anticipated second-generation handheld approaches, the number of leaks about it is also increasing. For example, we recently told you that Switch 2 could be more powerful than the Xbox Series S and would have DLSS technology. Now, the latest Nintendo Switch 2 rumors suggest a possible March 2024 event, sparking speculation about whether it’s a teaser, announcement, reveal, or release date. Here are the details…

Nintendo Switch 2 Release Date Could Be March 2024, But Is It a Teaser or a Reveal?

First of all, it is important to note that there is no official information about the release date of the Nintendo Switch 2. However, there have been some rumors and leaks. For example, it has been said that the console will be released in the first six months of 2024. However, there has been no concrete date. Fortunately, the latest leaks have changed that. According to the Nate the Hate podcast, which also features ModernVintageGamer, the handheld could be released as early as March 2024.

However, a report from Notebookcheck suggests that this may not be good news. The original Nintendo Switch was first teased under the codename “NX” in the spring of 2016. The official announcement followed in October of the same year, with additional details like price and specs landing in January 2017. Finally, the console saw its global release in March 2017. This suggests that what we might see in March 2024 could be a teaser for a console that won’t be released until months later. In fact, it could even launch in March 2025.

So, if we want to see the Switch 2 in March 2024, Nintendo will need to show something soon. Fortunately, there is a chance of this happening. One of the biggest gaming events in the world, Tokyo Game Show, will be held in September. Nintendo’s participation in the event is very important for one of the announcements mentioned above.

If the company shows the Switch 2 here, March 2024 could really be the release date. Of course, what I am saying now is just a guess based on the past. However, let us not forget that Nintendo is a Japanese company that is very attached to its traditions. This gives our guesses a very good chance. Still, we have no choice but to wait for now to learn all the truths.

Ant Group launches AntGuard, China’s first large model security solution

By

Sep 12, 2023

Ant Group has launched “AntGuard,” a significant development in addressing the security concerns tied to large AI models. This solution consists of two main parts: “AntScan 2.0” and “TianGuard,” with the aim of enhancing the trustworthiness and dependability of large AI models employed across different industries.

AntGuard: Enhancing Security for Large AI Models

The primary goal of AntGuard is to tackle security issues related to problematic training data, uncontrollable inference processes, and external malicious influences. It focuses on three essential areas: measuring large model security, intelligent risk management, and cleaning up data-related issues.

AntScan 2.0 acts as a security expert for large models. Before these models are put into action, it thoroughly checks them, identifying vulnerabilities across various aspects like data security, content security, and ethical considerations.

TianGuard, on the other hand, acts like a protective shield for large models. It uses smart risk control technology to protect models from harmful external queries and filters out potentially risky responses generated by these models. This approach ensures security throughout the entire process, from user inputs to the model’s outputs after deployment.

Moreover, Ant Group and TianGuard are dedicated to maintaining model security during both the training and application phases. They achieve this by implementing strategies like cleaning up problematic data sources, aligning training processes, and conducting research to improve model transparency.

Both AntScan 2.0 and TianGuard are now accessible to the public, providing a robust security framework for large-scale AI applications.

Apple renews 5G modem deal with Qualcomm

Sep 12, 2023

Apple has apparently extended its agreement with Qualcomm for modems. The renewed deal will have the latter continue to supply the former for another three years. This news is in contrast to our previous report that the brand will be shifting to its own 5G modems soon.

Apple 5G Modem Delayed

For those unaware, known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo had previously revealed that the Cupertino based giant is planning on shifting to its self developed 5G modems by 2025. However, the latest report from Bloomberg reveals that the proprietary modem isn’t ready for iPhones yet. Apple had acquired Intel’s modem unit in the past and has been working on its own 5G modem to move away from Qualcomm’s hardware.

The analyst added that the iPhone SE 4th Gen will be the first to feature the new modem, with its launch expected in the first quarter of 2025. But now, it seems like Apple will still be with Qualcomm till 2026 and rely on its modem. Since the iPhone 12, Qualcomm has been the sole supplier of Apple’s 5G modems. Apple is currently the chipmaking giant’s largest client, accounting for 22.3 percent of the orders.

In recent years, the iPhone maker has been working on becoming more self reliant. It is developing technology and components, which would have it reduce its dependency on third-party suppliers. At the moment, Qualcomm basically holds a monopoly for 5G modems, offering the most advanced modems for mobile devices. Top smartphone brands like Samsung also employ its modems for wireless networking.

The 1More Fit Open Earbuds S50 features a DLC diaphragm and PurePower Drivers. 1More boasts that the model provides EQ presets from Sonarworks and excellent tuning from a Grammy Award-winning sound engineer. The Fit Open Earbuds S50 are the first 1More earphones to adopt an open-ear design. The open-ear form factor is a fast-developing design that is very appealing to athletes or sports-oriented consumers. 1More is silent on the presence of bone or air conduction for the S50 but mentions the Directional Sound Loop. The Directional Sound Loop funnels the audio into the user’s ear, while the new no-pinch ear-hooks are primed for extended use.

The S50’s charging case can deliver up to 38 hours but lacks waterproof (IPX7) ingress protection available for buds. Customers can order the 1More Fit Open Earbuds S50 for $149.99 via the official 1More website. The OEM is offering an early-bird discount that reduces the price of the earbuds to $120 with the code SPORT20. As with other 1More offerings, the earbuds are also available on Amazon (20% off).

Realme introduced the Realme Buds T300 earbuds in India earlier this month, featuring 30dB ANC technology. These earbuds provide an appealing alternative for those who are not considering the Realme Buds Air 5 or Air 5 Pro. As of today, they are now accessible for purchase on Amazon India.

Realme Buds T300 price & availability

The Realme Buds T300 is now available for a special price of ₹2,199 on Amazon India. The earbuds are also available on the Realme website for the same price. After the special offer period ends, the price will jump up to ₹2,299. The buds are available in two color options: Stylish Black and Youth White.

Realme Buds T300 specs

The Realme Buds T300 earbuds come with 12.4mm speaker drivers and connect easily via Bluetooth 5.3. They are tough and can handle dust and water with their IP55 rating. Plus, you can control them by tapping on them.

These earbuds support different types of audio, including SBC and AAC. They also have Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that can reduce unwanted sounds by up to 30 dB. They give you a 360° audio experience and have a low delay when you use them for things like games or videos.

In terms of battery life, these earbuds are quite impressive. Without using ANC, they can play music for up to 8 hours on one charge. If you use the charging case, they can last for a total of 40 hours. When you turn on ANC, the battery life is a bit shorter, with 6 hours of music and 30 hours with the case, which is still pretty good.
