TSMC is apparently planning on building its first ever chip production facility in Europe. Germany will be the site for its latest semiconductor facility and the company is reportedly in advanced talks with the German government for this plan.

According to a new report, the world’s largest contract chipmaker is in serious and advanced discussion with the German state for the building of this new chip plant. As per sources close to the matter, the move from the company arrives after the local government had announced subsidies to support the investment. For those unaware, the European Union had unveiled the European Chips act to ease government funding rules for semiconductor plants that had previously faced state aid bans.

One of the sources added that the talks between TSMC and Saxony are “serious and advanced”. Furthermore, the delegations from the eastern German state has also been coming to Taiwan for move forward this plan with the chipmaker. Setting up an advanced semiconductor production facility is a hefty investment and the costs also includes labor as well. Thus, TSMC is in discussion over subsidies that it could get in return of setting up the first European chip plant in Germany.

As per the company’s official statement back in December 2022, there is still “no concrete plan” to build a chip factory in the region. The German and Saxony government are open to provide subsidies but are also seeking further EU funds since “without subsidies nobody will come,” as per one of the sources.

Alleged Google Pixel 7a prototype Selling on eBay months before Launch

Mar 16, 2023

Smartphone leaks are pretty common, but nothing leaks like a Google Pixel. The company’s upcoming Pixel 7a should launch in three months and we’ve already seen everything from its hands-on images to detailed specifications. Now an alleged Pixel 7a prototype has shown on eBay, and the listing also features photos of the device powered on. Here are the details.

An eBay user with the username nikoskom-94 is apparently selling a Pixel 7a prototype. The handset has been pictured with the same design that has been revealed by various reports but there’s one anomaly— the logo. Pixel smartphones have Google’s “G” logo on the back but this prototype features a logo more similar to the Pac-Man silhouette.

The eBay listing revealed that nikoskom-94 had attempted to auction off the prototype device for a whopping $5,000, but unsurprisingly, there were no takers. Consequently, the price was reduced to $2,500, then to $1,650. However, the device is now listed again with a price of US$2,550 and the auction is set to end on Saturday. This pricing is still exorbitant for a device that is expected to retail for under $500.

The Pixel 7a is reported to debut in May during Google’s I/O 2023 conference. The company may also showcase the Fold and Pixel Tablet at the same event. According to previous reports, the Pixel 7a will sport a 6.1-inch FHD+ OLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. It will likely feature the Tensor G2 chipset, similar to the Pixel 7 series, coupled with 8GB LPDDR5 RAM and 128GB UFS 3.1 storage. On the software front, the handset could boot Android 13 OS.

Mar 16, 2023

With the entry of brands like Xiaomi and Oppo, it became hard for Lava to stay relevant in the Indian smartphone market. However, the home-grown brand is not giving up to the Chinese rivals and has in fact launched some decent smartphones recently. The newly launched Lava Blaze 5G arrived with some notable specifications for the price and it seems the brand will soon be launching its successor—Lave Blaze 2.

The information comes from reputed tipster Mukul Sharma who also shared the live image, price as well as some specifications of the handset. Sharma says the Lava Blaze 2 will be launching in the Indian market in April. While the specific date is not known yet, the tipster says the handset will be priced under Rs. 10,000 ($123) in the country. For reference, the Lava Blaze 5G (review) carries a price tag of Rs 10,999 (~$135).

As mentioned, Lava Blaze 2’s live image has also surfaced. As you can see in the image, the smartphone has a flat back with two large rings housing the camera sensors. The back is apparently made of glass. It has flat sides with the right edge housing the volume rockers and a power button, which is integrated with the fingerprint sensors. The front of the device is not depicted in the image but we can expect thick bezels as well as a waterdrop notch.

Sharma claims the Lava smartphone will be powered by the Unisoc T616 processor. Manufactured on the 12nm processor, it is an entry-level octa-core SoC with two fast ARM Cortex A75 cores clocked at up to 2 GHz and six power-efficient ARM Cortex A55 cores at up to 1.8 GHz. The rest of the specifications of the device are yet to be known. We should learn more in the near future.

New TWS earbuds from Nothing’s alleged Sub-brand ‘Particles By XO’ Get Bluetooth SIG certified

Nothing – a relatively new company with only three products launched so far – is developing a sub-brand called Particles By XO, as per a December 2022 report by 91Mobiles. The report also included renders of the sub-brand’s first true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds. Now, the same unnamed hearables have been spotted on the Bluetooth SIG website, hinting at a nearby launch. Let’s look at the available details.

Nothing is already scheduled to launch the successor of the original Ear (1) in the global market on March 22. They are expected to follow the same design language as the original model, flaunting a transparent body and charging case. The Carl Pei-led company may soon launch another set of wireless earbuds but under its alleged sub-brand, Particles by XO.

The earbuds have been spotted on the Bluetooth SIG website today by the folks at 91Mobiles. The listing lacks substantial details, other than confirming that the earphones will be equipped with Bluetooth 5.2 and are assigned the model number B154.

Developer Kuba Wojciechowski discovered that model number B154 is allegedly linked to a pair of peculiar-looking true wireless earbuds with an unusual bulbous shape. Wojciechowski reportedly discovered images of the earbuds, as well as the branding “Particles by XO,” listed as a product made by Nothing in firmware obtained from the company’s servers.

As depicted in the image, the earbuds from Particles by XO have a distinctive L-shaped design, which should mean that they will be oriented upwards when inserted into the ear. These earbuds are like the eccentric cousin in Nothing’s family of semi-transparent earbuds with their wacky peanut-shaped design. But don’t be fooled by their odd appearance because they could potentially be in the elite TWS club with features like LHDC and ANC support.

China sees a 17% fall in Semiconductor output in 2023

Mar 16, 2023

Chinese semiconductor output has fallen down by 17% in 2023. The first two months of the year saw the country producing only 44.3 billion units of ICs (Integrated Circuits) as compared to the 53.7 billion units for the same period in the last year. The 17% drop in January and February alone is way more than the overall drop of 11.6 % recorded for the whole of 2022.

The US sanctions have crippled the Chinese semiconductor industry, the result of which can be seen in the sharp decline in semiconductor production. Dwindling consumer demand and the economic downturn have also contributed to the fall in the production of chips in the world’s largest semiconductor market.

In the first two months of 2023, Microcomputer shipments saw a drop of 21.9% whereas the smartphone output saw a 14.1% reduction year on year. When it comes to semiconductor imports, China saw a sharp drop of 26.5% which is way more than the 15% drop recorded in 2022. Last year the IC exports of China surprisingly showed an increase of 0.5%. However this year the IC exports also decreased by 20.9% year on year.

Effect of US Sanctions and Zero Covid Policy on semiconductor business:

China which is the largest semiconductor market in the world has generally shown an upward growth trajectory in its semiconductor business. However, the ongoing US sanctions combined with the zero covid policy and economic slump saw the country recording its biggest monthly decline ever. Last year in October the semiconductor output fell by 26.7% year on year making it a record-breaking fall for the sector.

However after Beijing changed its Zero Covid Policy, the overall economic situation has become better in the country. China’s manufacturing sector is now rebounding from the slump and showing an upward trend for January and February 2023. This year in February, the manufacturing purchasing managers’ index (PMI) beat all expectations by rising to 52.6, the highest reading since April 2012. Even the semiconductor industry which showed an overall decrease in output is performing slightly better as compared to its performance in October last year.

According to Mysmartprice, Motorola Razr (2023) will have a Plus in its moniker which has never been seen before in the company’s Razr lineup. The device is also rumored to have the model number XT2321, and sources suggest that it will support 30W wired fast charging. The phone will also feature a 2850mAh battery capacity.

In terms of design, leaked renders suggest that the Motorola Razr (2023) will feature a larger 3.7-inch cover display, which is even bigger than the OPPO Find N2 Flip’s 3.26-inch screen. This may justify the “Plus” branding, as it will likely offer an improved user experience compared to its competitors.

Another leaked render suggests that the phone will have an under-screen front camera sensor, which would eliminate the need for a notch or cutout on the display. This could also be a great feature as the cover screen is large enough to be used as a viewfinder for taking selfies using the rear camera. Unfortunately, the camera specs are not yet known. A live photo of the phone was recently leaked where it shows the device in Maroon-Black dual color with a dual-camera setup and a LED Flash next to that.

Although other details such as the processor and foldable display size are not confirmed, the leaked details so far make the Razr 2023 look quite promising on paper. Overall, the upcoming Razr 2023 foldable phone from Motorola is shaping up to be an exciting addition to the smartphone market.
