May 20, 2026

Huawei’s next-generation Mate series has started appearing in early leaks, hinting at major upgrades focused on zoom photography and battery capacity. Tipster Digital Chat Station reportedly shared the information before deleting the post shortly afterward, but details were later reshared by one of his followers online. While the tipster did not directly mention Huawei in the original leak, the emoji and specifications shared strongly suggest that the information could be related to the upcoming Mate 90 lineup, including the Mate 90 Pro Max and Mate 90 RS.

Huawei Mate 90 series may finally embrace dual periscope cameras

As per the leak, Huawei is reportedly testing dual periscope telephoto cameras on its upcoming flagship models. So far, this kind of camera setup has largely remained limited to Oppo’s Find X-series smartphones. The engineering prototypes are said to feature two 50-megapixel periscope sensors, while the larger “super-large” model is currently being evaluated with a 10x optical zoom periscope lens.

The leak further suggests that Huawei could significantly increase battery capacity on the Mate 90 Pro Max and Mate 90 RS Ultimate models. Both devices are expected to feature batteries ranging between 6,800mAh and 7,000mAh. In addition, the smartphones may arrive with a next-generation 6.9-inch Tandem OLED display, which could bring improvements in brightness, efficiency and overall panel durability.

The chipset powering the lineup is also tipped to receive a noticeable performance upgrade compared to the current generation. For reference, the existing Huawei Mate 80 RS uses the Kirin 9030 Pro chipset and features a 6.9-inch dual-layer OLED display with LTPO adaptive refresh rate support. The phone also includes multiple 50-megapixel cameras and Huawei’s in-house imaging technologies.

If Huawei introduces dual periscope cameras across its top-end Mate models, it could directly compete with Oppo’s flagship imaging approach, especially in long-range zoom photography. The addition of larger batteries and upgraded display technology may also help Huawei strengthen its premium flagship lineup further.

Vivo X500 Pro Max could pack a huge 8,000mAh+ battery

May 20, 2026

Speculation is growing that Vivo may unveil the Vivo X500 series earlier than its predecessor. The lineup is expected to include three models, namely the Vivo X500, X500 Pro, and X500 Pro Max. Recent reports have already revealed the display sizes of all three phones, and now a new leak has surfaced, revealing the battery capacity of the Pro Max edition.

Vivo X500 Pro Max battery size tipped

Since there was no Pro Max edition in the X300 lineup, the upcoming Vivo X500 Pro Max will be a new model expected to feature a massive 6.85-inch OLED panel with support for 2K resolution.

It is expected to be powered by a next-generation 2nm chipset, which could be the MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro. The tipster added that the prototype unit is currently being tested with an 8,000mAh battery, although the final hardware design has reportedly not been completed yet. Vivo is said to still be working on the internal structure and hopes to achieve the targeted battery capacity in the final version.

The new leak aligns with a recent report claiming that the entire X500 lineup will feature high-density 7,000mAh+ batteries. This would mark a significant upgrade, considering that the Vivo X300 packs a 6,040mAh battery, while the X300 Pro houses a 6,510mAh unit. The X300s, which debuted a few weeks ago in China, features a 6.78-inch display similar to the X300 Pro but packs a larger 7,100mAh battery.

Reports further suggest that the Vivo X500 will feature a 6.59-inch display, while the Vivo X500 Pro could arrive with a 6.37-inch panel. Both devices are also expected to feature Dimensity 9600-series chipsets.

Xiaomi confirms T-series return to India ahead of Xiaomi 17T launch

By

May 20, 2026

Xiaomi is finally bringing the T-series back to India after skipping the market for several generations. The company recently posted a short teaser on X saying, “The T is coming,” more or less confirming the return just days before the global Xiaomi 17T launch event on May 28.

This will be the first T-series launch in India since the Xiaomi 11T series back in early 2022. Since then, Xiaomi skipped India entirely with the 12T, 13T, and 14T lineups, even while the series continued doing fairly well in global markets.

The comeback is interesting because the premium mid-range segment in India has become much more aggressive over the past few years. Brands like OnePlus, iQOO, Vivo, and Realme have pushed hard into the space, while Xiaomi’s presence above the Redmi lineup has felt comparatively quieter.

Current leaks suggest India may only get the standard Xiaomi 17T and not the higher-end 17T Pro. The regular model is expected to feature a 6.59-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, MediaTek’s Dimensity 8500 Ultra chip, a 6,500mAh battery, and 67W charging support.

As for the optics, Xiaomi is reportedly using a Leica-branded triple-camera system with a 50MP main sensor, 50MP telephoto camera offering 5x optical zoom, and a 12MP ultrawide sensor. A 32MP front camera is expected on the front.

The 17T Pro, meanwhile, is rumored to come with a larger display, top-of-the-line Dimensity 9500 chipset, a bigger 7,000mAh battery, and faster charging. But its pricing could overlap too closely with proper flagship phones in India, which may explain why Xiaomi appears hesitant to launch it locally.

Early pricing leaks for the standard 17T (via Smartprix) suggest the phone could land somewhere around the ₹75,000 range depending on storage configuration.

If that happens, Xiaomi will be competing directly with performance-focused Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 flagships like the OnePlus 15 and iQOO 15, as well as camera-focused devices like the Vivo X300 FE, which uses the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5.

That said, there is still some confusion around the pricing. Another recent leak hinted at a lower figure closer to ₹55,000, though that number was reportedly after launch offers and discounts. That pricing would make considerably more sense for a Dimensity 8500 Ultra-powered Xiaomi device in India. As of now, there is no reliable confirmation regarding the final Indian pricing.

There are also rumors that the Xiaomi 17 Max, the company’s upcoming battery-focused flagship, could launch in India shortly afterward.

Oppo Find X10 series to pack 8,000mAh battery

By

-

May 20, 2026

When Oppo unveiled the Find X9 series, the company stated that it would not launch a flagship phone with a battery smaller than 7,000mAh. That is why even the compact Find X9s, which features a 6.32-inch display, packs a 7,025mAh battery. A new leak now suggests that Oppo could further increase the battery capacity with the upcoming Find X10 lineup.

Oppo Find X10 lineup battery size tipped

According to tipster Smart Pikachu, the Oppo Find X10 series may feature batteries in the 8,000mAh range. A recent leak also revealed that the lineup could include four models with different screen sizes, including 6.32-inch, 6.59-inch, 6.78-inch, and 6.89-inch variants.

While the exact name of the 6.32-inch variant is still unknown, the tipster claims that the 6.59-inch model will be the standard Find X10. The 6.78-inch and 6.89-inch variants are expected to arrive as the Find X10 Pro and Find X10 Pro Max, respectively.

The lineup is also said to include the Find X10 Ultra, which could feature the same display size as the Pro Max model. The Ultra variant is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset, while the remaining Find X10 models may feature MediaTek Dimensity 9-series processors. The Ultra model is expected to launch in the first half of 2027.

Coming back to the 6.32-inch variant, it could reportedly launch as the Find X10s Pro. Interestingly, the leak suggests that Oppo may have managed to fit a massive 8,000mAh battery inside the compact device. If accurate, the phone could stand out as an engineering achievement, especially since it is also expected to include premium cameras similar to other Find-series devices.

Casio’s new earU earbuds want to make better hearing stylish

By

May 20, 2026

Casio has introduced a new kind of wearable audio device called the earU ER-100 under its newly announced earU brand. Positioned as a hearing assist earphone rather than a traditional hearing aid, the new product combines open-ear comfort, wireless audio support, and digital sound enhancement in a more lifestyle-focused form factor.

Casio earU ER-100 specifications and features

The earU ER-100 features a cuff-style open-ear design that sits around the ear without blocking the ear canal. Casio says this approach reduces discomfort such as pressure, heat, and irritation that are commonly associated with conventional in-ear hearing devices. Each earbud weighs around 8 grams without accessories, making it suitable for longer usage sessions.

Casio has also focused heavily on natural sound reproduction. The company says the earbuds combine surrounding environmental audio with digitally corrected sound to make voices easier to hear while maintaining a better sense of direction and distance. The earbuds are also designed to reduce sound leakage and suppress unwanted resonance that can lead to feedback noise.

Users can adjust sound settings through a dedicated smartphone app. The app can automatically tune audio levels after analyzing hearing conditions and also allows switching between listening profiles designed for places such as offices, restaurants, outdoor areas, and meeting rooms.

Apart from hearing assistance, the ER-100 can also work as regular wireless earbuds for music playback and calls. The device supports Bluetooth 5.4 along with SBC, AAC, and aptX codecs. It features a 10mm dynamic driver and IPX4 splash resistance for the earbuds.

The battery is rated to deliver over 9.5 hours of continuous use in listening mode and more than 14 hours in streaming mode. Casio also says a 10-minute charge can provide around 90 minutes of listening time.

Casio earU ER-100 price and availability

Casio has confirmed that the earU ER-100 will go on sale in Japan for 49,940 JPY ($315), starting May 28 under the company’s new earU brand. The available colors include ER-100PT-NB Navy Black, ER-100PT-WY Ivory White, and ER-100SH-WY Ivory White, with different style accessories bundled depending on the variant.

At the moment, the ER-100 appears to be limited to the Japanese market. Therefore, it not clear whether it will be released in other markets.

May 20, 2026

Xiaomi is set to launch the Xiaomi 17 Max on May 21, which is tomorrow. Just before the launch, the device has now made its debut on Geekbench, revealing its performance scores.

The Xiaomi 17 Max appeared on the benchmark under the model number 2605EPN8EC. According to the listing, the phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip and comes with 16GB of RAM.

The benchmark results show strong performance. In Geekbench 6.7.1, the device scored 3750 points in single-core performance and 11,674 points in multi-core performance.

Xiaomi 17 Max Specifications (Expected)

Moving from the SoC, the Xiaomi 17 Max will feature a massive 8000mAh Xiaomi Jinshajiang battery. The company recently did a livestream showing the battery prowess of the phone, and it surprisingly outlasted two iPhone 17 Pro Max in video streaming.

The front will be home to a 6.9-inch flat panel with very slim bezels. Xiaomi is calling this a Super Pixel display, which uses a new RGB sub-pixel layout and red luminous materials.

The company claims it can deliver near 2K clarity while consuming less power than a typical 1.5K OLED screen. It is also expected to support a 120Hz LTPO refresh rate, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, and symmetrical stereo speakers.

For cameras, the Xiaomi 17 Max is expected to feature a Leica-backed 200-megapixel main camera with a 1/1.4-inch sensor, along with a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens offering 3x optical zoom and a 50-megapixel ultrawide camera.

Memory specs include LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. Xiaomi has also reportedly redesigned the internal layout to improve cooling, which should help during gaming and heavy multitasking sessions.

Xiaomi will launch the Xiaomi Band 10 Pro, Xiaomi YU7 GT, and other products alongside Xiaomi 17 Max.

The company is expanding AI-powered experiences across Search with smarter tools, deeper personalisation, AI agents, and custom interactive experiences.

Honor announces Honor Win Turbo launch in late May, to feature 10,000mAh battery

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

May 20, 2026

Honor introduced its Win series late last year with two phones, the Honor Win and Honor Win RT. Both devices pack massive 10,000mAh batteries alongside flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite series processors. The company is now preparing a more affordable entry in the lineup.

Honor recently started teasing the Honor Win Turbo, and has officially confirmed today that the smartphone will launch in China on May 29.

Honor Win Turbo specifications (expected)

Meanwhile, tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo claims the phone will share several specifications with the Honor Power 2.

As a result, unlike the Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered Win models, the Win Turbo is expected to run on MediaTek’s Dimensity 8500 Elite chipset. The phone could also arrive with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.

On the front, the device is expected to feature a 1.5K LTPS flat display paired with a metal frame. It’s also rumored to include a 50MP primary camera with OIS (optical image stabilization), housed inside a horizontal matrix-style camera module.

However, the tipster notes that the Honor Win Turbo will not include a built-in cooling fan, unlike the original Win.

What may remain unchanged is the massive 10,000mAh battery. Honor hasn’t officially confirmed the battery capacity yet, but Win is more about big battery, so it’s safe to assume this. The device is also expected to support 80W fast charging.

For photography, the rumored setup includes a 50MP primary rear camera, a 5MP ultra-wide sensor, and a 16MP front-facing camera for selfies and video calls.

With the official launch just days away, Honor likely won’t keep the remaining details under wraps for much longer.

iQOO 15T Roundup: Here’s Everything You Need To Know

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

May 20, 2026

iQOO is preparing to launch its next performance-focused flagship, the iQOO 15T, in China. With the official launch just around the corner, the company has been slowly revealing almost everything about the phone. And from everything we know about the device so far, we can predict that the device is built for performance without compromise.

So here’s everything you need to know about the iQOO 15T before its launch.

Prev Next

1. 2K display with high refresh rate

On the front, the iQOO 15T will feature a 6.82-inch flat display with a 2K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. The panel uses an 8T LTPO structure and BOE’s Q10+ substrate, which should help with smoother refresh rate switching and better power efficiency.

The display is also described as a high-end “Everest” flat screen with very thin bezels and a 2K resolution.

The phone also supports advanced gaming features like 2K resolution combined with 144fps frame interpolation, depending on the title and optimisation.

2. Dimensity 9500 and Q3 gaming chip

At the core of the device is the Dimensity 9500 chipset from MediaTek. This is paired with iQOO’s self-developed Q3 gaming chip, designed to handle heavy graphics workloads and gaming optimisation.

Together, the system is tuned for sustained performance rather than short bursts. iQOO claims the phone can maintain near full-frame gaming performance for long periods while keeping power consumption under control, even in demanding games like Genshin Impact.

The Q3 chip also enables features like full-scene ray tracing, super-resolution rendering, and smoother frame generation. In supported games, users may even get 2K resolution combined with 144fps output. The iQOO 15T will run OriginOS 6 based on Android 16.

As is common in flagships now, the iQOO 15T uses a silicon-carbon battery of 8000mAh. Despite the large capacity, the phone still supports 100W fast wired charging. iQOO also includes a system called Global Direct Drive Power Supply 2.0, which helps reduce heat when the phone is charging and gaming at the same time.

3. Cameras

For cameras, the iQOO 15T introduces a major upgrade for the brand. It will feature a 200-megapixel main rear camera, which is the first time such a high-resolution sensor is used on an iQOO flagship.

This main camera uses a large sensor and supports CIPA 4.5-level stabilisation, similar to what is found in some Vivo imaging-focused flagships. It also supports 4x lossless zoom, which should help maintain detail when cropping or zooming into images.

Along with the main sensor, the phone also includes a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera. On the front, there is a 16-megapixel selfie camera.

The camera system also supports full focal-length portrait photography and AI-based image enhancements. While iQOO is still clearly a performance-first brand, this setup shows it is also trying to improve its imaging capabilities.

4. Design and build

In terms of design, the iQOO 15T follows the styling of the iQOO 15 Ultra. It comes with a square camera module that has a transparent-inspired look.

The phone will be available in three colour options: Qingyun, Track Edition, and Legend Edition. It weighs around 216 grams, depending on the variant, and measures roughly 8.25mm to 8.4mm in thickness.

Despite the large battery, iQOO has managed to keep the design relatively slim for a device in this category.

The phone also includes practical hardware features like a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, a metal frame, and IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance ratings.

5. Price

There is still no official pricing for the iQOO 15T. However, based on its specifications, it is expected to sit in the upper-premium segment in China.

Global availability is also unclear at the moment. iQOO has not confirmed whether the device will launch outside China.

May 20, 2026

Earlier this month, tipster Digital Chat Station revealed the existence of a new Redmi phone equipped with a huge 10,000mAh+ battery. At the time, the tipster did not mention the chipset powering the device. However, a new Weibo post now appears to reveal additional details. While the phone’s name has not been officially confirmed, it is believed that the leak could be referring to the Redmi Turbo 6 Max.

Redmi Turbo 6 Max key specs tipped

According to the leak, the Redmi Turbo 6 Max may feature a 7-inch display with support for 2K resolution. The current engineering prototype of the device is said to be equipped with a 3nm Dimensity 9-series flagship chipset.

The existing Redmi Turbo 5 Max is powered by the Dimensity 9500s. Based on this, it appears that the Turbo 6 Max could either retain the same 3nm chipset or arrive with the Dimensity 9500. The tipster also claims that the device’s battery capacity exceeds the 10,000mAh mark.

A previous leak suggested that the device may also include an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, a metal middle frame, and IP68/IP69-rated dust and water resistance. As for the launch timeline, the phone is expected to debut by the end of this year.

In related news, rumors surrounding the Redmi K100 series suggest that the lineup could launch earlier than its predecessor. Expected to go official in September, the series may include the Redmi K100 and K100 Pro powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, while the Redmi K100 Pro Max could feature the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset.

Redmi is also reportedly working on the Redmi Note 17 lineup, which is expected to launch in July or August this year.

Xiaomi announces its most premium cordless vacuum with automatic dust collection system

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

May 20, 2026

It’s a new day, another new Mijia product announcement. After announcing a mini washing machine, an AC, a French-style refrigerator, and whatnot over the past few days, Xiaomi today unveiled the Mijia Cordless Vacuum Cleaner 4 Max. And as far as we know, it’s currently the most expensive cordless vacuum cleaner by Mijia.

Xiaomi Mijia Cordless Vacuum Cleaner 4 Max Specification

The vacuum is powered by an 800W high-speed brushless motor capable of spinning at 150,000 RPM. According to the company, it can deliver up to 280AW suction power and a maximum vacuum level of 27,000Pa. That is enough for handling everything from dust and pet hair to larger debris like cat litter and dry food particles.

Xiaomi MIjia Cordless Vacuum Cleaner 4 Max Design

The machine is fitted with Xiaomi’s new dual-airflow self-collecting dust system. As a result, users do not need to manually empty the dust cup after every cleaning session. The vacuum automatically transfers debris into a 3-liter antibacterial dust bag inside the charging base instead. Xiaomi claims the system can achieve a 99% dust collection rate and can empty the dust cup in as little as 11 seconds.

The company also says the dust bag includes a silver-ion antibacterial layer with a claimed 99.99% antibacterial rate. Under typical use, you can reportedly go as long as 100 days before needing to replace the bag.

12-cone separation and 90-minute runtime

The vacuum also includes several technologies, like a 180-degree wide-angle blue light dust detection system to reveal fine dust particles that are difficult to see with the naked eye. The floor brush uses a right-edge design to improve cleaning along walls and corners, while there’s a 12-cone cyclone separation system that helps prevent clogging and maintain consistent suction over time.

The Mijia Cordless Vacuum Cleaner 4 Max runs off a built-in 4000mAh battery pack with up to 90 minutes of runtime. Good thing, the battery is removable!

Mijia Cordless Vacuum Cleaner 4 Max Battery

Like many recent Xiaomi smart home products, the vacuum also supports Xiaomi HyperOS Connectivity and works with the Mi Home app. Users can monitor battery health, adjust suction levels, receive dust bag replacement reminders, and trigger automated smart home routines.

Xiaomi says the vacuum can even interact with other smart devices, including air purifiers and smart locks, to create automated cleaning scenarios.

Pricing and Availability

The Cordless Mijia Vacuum Cleaner 4 Max is available for CNY 1,999 (~ $295) at Xiaomi Youpin. As usual, there are slim chances of the product making its global debut.

Lenovo announces Legion 300W GaN4.0 adapter for under $60

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

May 20, 2026

As scheduled, Lenovo has announced a new 300W Legion GaN charger, alongside several other products, including the Lenovo Yoga Air 14 Ultra and the Lenovo Legion Y70 smartphone, yesterday.

And while laptop chargers are usually the least exciting part of a gaming setup, Lenovo seems to be betting that people are tired of carrying giant power bricks around.

Lenovo Legion 300W GaN adapter Launch Specs Price

Lenovo Legion 300W GaN Adapter Specifications

The new Legion 300W GaN adapter uses GaN4.0 technology, which allows it to deliver high power output in a smaller body compared to traditional adapters. Lenovo says the charger is compact at a body footprint of 82 x 82 x 33mm, so you don’t have to carry oversized adapters that typically ship with high-performance gaming laptops.

The charger supports Lenovo’s proprietary 20V/15A fast charging protocol and is designed for Legion gaming laptops that run in performance mode.

Lenovo Legion 300W adpater with GaN 4.0 tech

The adapter uses a three-prong grounded plug design that the company says helps prevent static leakage. It also claims the charger can maintain a stable 300W output by operating within a “golden voltage range” between 200V and 240V.

There are also some smaller hardware touches for durability. It has a reinforced Slim square connector, soft rubber reinforcement around the cable, and a 1.5-meter charging cable in the box. An optional version with a digital display can show real-time charging power through what Lenovo calls its “AI Power” monitoring system.

The adapter supports a long list of Legion laptops from 2023 through 2026, including models in the Legion 7000P, 7000X, 9000P, and 9000X series. Lenovo also says that other laptops using its Slim square charging connector may technically work with the adapter, though charging performance could vary depending on the system and BIOS limitations.

The Legion 300W GaN adapter is priced at 399 yuan (~ $58) in China and will officially go on sale on May 31.

After staying away from the smartphone market for several years, Lenovo has officially returned with the new Lenovo Legion Y70 in China. The company’s last branded gaming phone was the Legion Y90, which launched back in 2022.

Now, Lenovo is trying to re-enter the gaming phone segment with hardware that has flagship-grade specs.

Lenovo Legion Y70 Specifications

The Legion Y70 comes with a 6.82-inch BOE Q10 OLED display featuring a 2K resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and LTPO technology for adaptive refresh rates. Lenovo says the panel can reach up to 7,000 nits of peak brightness and also supports Dolby Vision.

Powering the device is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor, paired with LPDDR5X Ultra RAM running at up to 9,600 Mbps and UFS 4.1 storage. You can choose between 12GB RAM with 256GB storage, 12GB with 512GB, and 16GB with 512GB. There is also a higher-end variant with 1TB of storage.

For cooling, Lenovo uses a large 5,500 mm² vapor chamber system, which the company claims can reduce CPU temperatures by up to 7 degrees Celsius during heavy workloads like gaming.

Backing this up is a massive 8,000mAh battery. The phone supports 90W fast charging and also includes bypass charging. Lenovo claims the battery is designed to maintain long-term health for up to 1,200 charging cycles.

On the camera side, the Legion Y70 features a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-710 main sensor with an f/1.8 aperture, along with an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera capable of focusing as close as 2.5cm for macro-style shots. A 32-megapixel front camera handles selfies and video calls.

The phone also includes features such as IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC, eSIM support, a 500Hz gyroscope, and Android 16 with Lenovo’s Tianxi AI 4.0 software features.

Price and Availability

The Legion Y70 is currently available for pre-order in China in Ice Soul White and Carbon Black color options. Pricing starts at CNY 3,099 for the 12GB + 256GB model, which roughly converts to around $450.

OBE has launched a new budget-focused projector in China called the C3 Pro, following the recent debut of the Max variant. The projector carries a price tag of 1,175 yuan (around $172) and is currently available through JD.com.

OBE C3 Pro Specifications

The C3 Pro comes with a built-in gimbal stand, which allows for up to 120 degrees of vertical tilt. This makes it possible to project images directly onto the ceiling from a bedside table without needing to prop the device up on other objects.

The base of the stand also functions as a touch-controlled ambient night light, indicating it is designed to sit on a nightstand or side table. Weighing approximately 2.04 kg (about 4.5 pounds) and measuring 150 x 135 x 263 mm, the device is compact enough to be moved between rooms if needed.

For its display capabilities, the C3 Pro outputs a native 1080p resolution with a brightness rating of 570 CVIA lumens. It uses a fully sealed optical engine called the Wukong X, paired with an LCD panel developed in collaboration with TCL CSOT. The projector provides a 2800:1 contrast ratio and supports HDR10 as well as 4K video decoding.

To help with the initial setup, the projector includes a Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor and a full-color camera. These components enable automatic focus, keystone correction, obstacle avoidance, and wall color adaptation.

Internally, the device is powered by an MT9-series processor, 1GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage. It runs on the DaYanCheng OS, which supports local media playback from USB drives, voice commands, and standard screen mirroring protocols like AirPlay, Miracast, and DLNA. For connectivity, it supports Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3, and includes standard HDMI 2.0, USB 2.0, and 3.5mm audio ports.

The projector also features a built-in 6W speaker that can operate as a standalone Bluetooth speaker when the display is off. It includes a low-latency mode for connecting gaming consoles like a PlayStation or Nintendo Switch. According to the manufacturer, the cooling fan operates at a noise level below 26dB.

Casio unveils CRW001JB-9 ring watch in collaboration with J Balvin

May 19, 2026

Casio is releasing a new version of its ring watch, this time in collaboration with reggaeton artist J Balvin. The CRW001JB-9 takes the standard digital watch module Casio is known for and shrinks it down to fit on a finger. It costs $200 and will be available for pre-order starting May 28th, 2026, with a general release following on June 4th.

Design Details

To be clear, this isn’t a smart ring like the Oura or the Samsung Galaxy Ring. There are no health sensors, step trackers, Bluetooth connectivity, or companion apps. It is simply a very small, fully functional digital watch.

The design is specific to the J Balvin collaboration. The stainless steel case has a gold ion-plated finish and features a textured brick pattern around the small digital display. There are small rhinestones set into the top and bottom bezels, and the back of the case is engraved with Balvin’s signature flower logo. It also ships in custom packaging that matches the gold brick texture of the hardware.

From a technical perspective, the ring measures 25.2 by 19.5 by 6.2 millimeters and weighs 16 grams. Despite the small footprint, Casio managed to retain standard digital watch functionality. The module includes a 1/100-second stopwatch, dual time, an auto-calendar, and a white LED backlight. It runs on a standard SR621SW watch battery, which Casio estimates will last for about two years before needing a replacement.

The ring is manufactured at a single fixed size: a US 10.5 (which has an inner diameter of 20mm). To fit smaller fingers, Casio includes two physical spacers in the box that reduce the inner diameter to 19mm or 18mm. If your preferred finger doesn’t fit one of those three exact measurements, you won’t be able to wear it comfortably.

In related news, Casio has recently launched new G-Shock watches with polarized gradient glass in the US, alongside affordable retro-inspired AQ-240 models.

Lenovo launches Legion Y960 gaming headset with physical 7.1 surround sound

Lenovo has introduced the Legion Y960 gaming headset during its latest hardware launch event in China. It is priced at 599 yuan (around $88) and stands out by offering a physical 7.1-channel surround sound system. The headset comes in black and silver colors.

Lenovo Legion Y960 Headset Specifications

To achieve this physical 7.1 setup, Lenovo has engineered a patented six-driver acoustic architecture inside the earcups. The system pairs two primary 40mm drivers with four secondary 20mm drivers.

According to Lenovo, this hardware-level separation of audio channels is designed to help players better distinguish overlapping in-game sounds, like footsteps, gunfire, and environmental cues, with improved directional accuracy and lower latency than standard virtual processing allows.

The headset has Hi-Res audio certification and a frequency response range of 20Hz to 40kHz. It uses titanium-coated diaphragms, which are designed to help with audio clarity and dynamic range.

Lenovo also included a feature called Soundprint Perspective, which is tuned to identify and highlight specific in-game sounds to help players understand where sounds are coming from.

For communication, the Y960 comes with a detachable, unidirectional microphone. It features a cardioid pickup pattern and AI environmental noise cancellation. It also supports sidetone, so you can hear your own voice through the speakers and avoid talking too loudly.

The headset includes an inline controller with a dual sound card setup. This allows users to switch between 7.1 and 2.0 channel audio, and change between Game, Music, and Cinema sound profiles directly from the cable, without needing to install extra software.

In terms of design, the headset features customizable RGB lighting with 16 million colors and works with Microsoft Dynamic Lighting. For comfort, it weighs 346 grams and uses a suspended dual-side headband design to distribute the weight across the head, which is intended to make it more comfortable for longer periods of use. The ear cushions are fully enclosed to block out background noise passively.

The Y960 connects via a cable and comes with USB-C and USB-A options, plus a dedicated 3.5mm microphone port. It is a plug-and-play device, meaning it does not require you to download drivers to use it. It is compatible with PCs, consoles, handheld gaming devices, and phones.

At the same event, Lenovo also unveiled the Yoga 32 Ultra Aura all-in-one PC featuring a 4K 165Hz OLED display and Intel Core Ultra X7 358H processor, alongside the new YOGA Air 14 Ultra Aura laptop powered by Intel Core Ultra chips.
