FOSSiBOT launches its first-ever solar generator the FOSSiBOT F2400, globally in US and Japan. The Chinese tech brand is known for its portable power stations and related accessories and now with the launch of F2400, they have stepped into the clean and green energy market. Fossibot aims to offer a portable and renewable energy solution with their powerful solar generator that comes with a 2048Wh large capacity, 2400W high-power, and 1.5 hours super fast charging.

USAGE:

FOSSiBOT F2400 solar generator is designed to be a large capacity and powerful power station that can solve your temporary energy problems. Whether you are facing a power failure, a power cut due to maintenance, or a natural disaster you can depend on this solar generator to power your appliances and keep you and your family safe and secure. Moreover, if you are a camper, RV rider, or adventure enthusiast who likes to spend time outdoors and off-grid, then the F2400 can be a great device to power your appliances on the go. With FOSSiBOT F2400 you can easily power up to 99% of your home appliances, gadgets, and tools, including microwaves, projectors, electric grills, electric kettles, mini coolers, space heaters, drones, hair dryers, lawn mowers, etc.

HIGH-CAPACITY BATTERY:

FOSSiBOT F2400 solar generator is one of the most powerful and high-capacity generators available in its price segment. It features a capacity of 2048Wh which can easily power your house for almost half a day. Your lights, LEDs, projector, laptop, coffee machine, router, smartphones, etc can be easily kept running with this power station.

If you are planning a camping trip then this is one of the best power solutions as it can easily power your RV for almost a day (an average RV uses 2.0kWh power per day). The device can suffice the needs of an average camping trip of say 8 people and power all necessary and life-saving gadgets during your trip.

SUPER FAST CHARGING:

It’s all good to have a powerful and high-capacity generator. But the biggest drawback of a power generator is the time taken to recharge it. On average it takes anywhere from 2 to 3 hours to recharge a 2048Wh battery. However, with the advanced bi-directional technology, you can recharge the FOSSiBOT F2400 faster than an average generator.

The device comes with 3 charging options viz. Solar panels, AC outlet, and Car outlet. F2400 can be fully recharged within 2 hours by a 1100W AC charge. By AC and 500W max solar panels charge simultaneously, it only takes 1.5 hours to charge from 0%-100% which is over twice faster compared to similar products on the market. By car charging, it takes 17 hours @12V, and 8.5hours @24V.

CHARGING PORTS and POWER :

Fossibot F2400 comes with16 output ports viz. 6 AC output ports, 4 USB-C ports, 2 USB-A ports, 2 DC5521 ports, 1 cigarette lighter, and a 12V/25A outlet for RV. With a 2400W total AC output, the Fossibot F2400 can power 99% of your devices. Moreover, when the total load exceeds 2400W power, the F2400 can continue to power all the loads by decreasing the voltage until the peak power reaches 4600W and the voltage below 78V.

DESIGN:

We can find many power stations in the market. But not all of them are designed to be portable. Before selecting a generator it is important to focus on its design and portability as you have to carry and use the device in the harsh and unpredictable outdoors.

Keeping in mind the usage scenarios and extreme outdoor conditions, the designers of Fossibot F2400 have added some special features to the device to make it optimum for outdoor usage. The generator comes with fan covers which keeps the dust, dirt, and insects and flies away from the fan blades thereby decreasing the chances of short circuit and blockages. Fossibot designed rubber plug covers for the DC and USB ports making them water-resistant and dust-proof. Also, on the top of the machine, there is a dedicated space for collecting the charging cables which helps to collect and arrange all your cables in one place.

PRICE, AVAILABILITY, and DISCOUNTS:

FOSSiBOT F2400 solar generator is now available for sale at the official FOSSiBOT website, Amazon Japan and Rakuten Japan. The power station is launched for a retail price of $1699. However, as a part of its launch promotion, the company is giving massive discounts of up to $400($200 discount + $200 coupon) on the pre-sale of the device.

Nov 21, 2022

A Geekbench listing from last week revealed that Samsung is gearing up to launch the Galaxy A14 5G smartphone featuring a new mysterious mid-range Exynos chipset. Later, it was speculated that this could be called the Exynos 1330.

Now, the smartphone has appeared on Geekbench again, this time rocking a MediaTek Dimensity 5G chipset.

The Samsung Galaxy A14 5G was identified as SM-A146P in the Geekbench benchmark database. The device will be powered by an octa-core processor with a 2 + 6 core configuration. This is the MediaTek Dimensity 700 processor. For those who are unaware, the Dimensity 700 is manufactured on a 7nm process and includes an integrated Mali G57 GPU. This is the same processor that powers a number of mid-range smartphones, including the Oppo A58, POCO M4 5G, Redmi 11 Prime 5G, and others.

In the single-core round of the Geekbench 5 benchmark test, the upcoming entry-level A-series smartphone scored 522 points. In the multi-core round, the smartphone received 1710 points. The Geekbench listing for the device also reveals that it will have 4GB of RAM. We can anticipate Samsung releasing it in other memory configurations as well. According to the listing, the Samsung Galaxy A14 5G will ship with Android 13.

Comparing these results with the Exynos version, it is clear that the Dimensity variant will come as a more affordable version for certain markets.

The Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro is the company’s latest smartwatch. It was unveiled in August at the Xiaomi Mix Fold 2 launch event. Even after months, the wearable still remains exclusive to China.

Earlier today, the brand announced that it has released WeChat app for this smartwatch. Let’s check out the features offered by this application.

WeChat is the most-used instant messaging application in China. It is what people use to stay communicated over the internet.

This application is now available on the Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro. Thus, the company’s new smartwatch becomes one of the few RTOS-powered wearables to have support for WeChat.

Users can pretty much use all the basic functionalities of WeChat on their wrists. The app allows them to reply to messages in multiple formats. They can not only use text but also voice and emojis. Also, they can view the images they receive in chats.

Users will likely have to install the WeChat application through the companion app on their smartwatch.

The Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro is the most premium wearable sold by the company right now. It is priced at ¥1,499 in China. At launch, the watch already had support for a few third-party apps like Baidu Map, NetEase Cloud Music, QQ Music, and more.

More third-party apps for the RTOS platform could arrive. Because almost all Chinese OEMs use RTOS for their affordable as well as premium smartwatches. Unfortunately, we cannot say whether this trend will catch on outside mainland China.

Sony Xperia 10 V leaks hint at a new chipset & minimal improvements

Nov 21, 2022

About a month ago, leaks of the next-gen Sont Xperia Ace lineup device called the Xperia Ace 4 appeared online. The leak revealed an upgraded display and a new-generation Snapdragon chip will be on-board the device along with other minor improvements.

Now, a new leak has revealed the specifications of another upcoming mid-range smartphone from Sony called the Xperia 10 V. The smartphone will be the successor of the Sony Xperia 10 IV, which launched in Q1 2022.

According to a report by SumahoDigest, the smartphone will apparently support a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset. The new chipset is based on a 4nm node, offers superior efficiency, improved Wi-Fi speed support, and can handle LPDDR5 memory at 3,200 MHz when compared to the previous-generation Snapdragon 695.

The display department will see a slight size upgrade, going from a 6-inch OLED panel on the Xperia 10 IV to a 6.1-inch OLED panel on the Xperia 10 V. The resolution of 1080 x 2520 (FHD+) and 21:9 aspect ratio will remain unchanged. It will be interesting to see if Sony decides to keep up with the competition and finally offer a higher refresh rate panel instead of the current 60Hz that it offers on the Xperia 10 IV.

The memory and storage configuration sees only minor adjustments, with the 6 GB + 128 GB combo returning. On the current-generation gadget, LPDDR5 RAM might be available in place of LPDDR4x RAM. A slight bump in battery capacity is also coming, as the upcoming device will now reportedly offer a 5,150 mAh vs the 5,000 mAh on the current iteration. Fast charging speeds, on the other hand, will remain the same at 30W.

It is unclear if the camera details will change if Sony will decide to roll with the same 12MP + 8MP + 8MP setup as the current gen. That being said, the Xperia 10 V is not expected to make its debut until Q2 2023.
