Earlier today, Huawei teased the upcoming launch of the Huawei P50 Pocket S smartphone in China. The device is set to break cover at 7 PM on November 2 in the domestic market.
Ahead of the launch, tipster Parag Guglani has shared the renders of the P50 Pocket S revealing its design and color options.
Huawei P50 Pocket S render
Design-wise, there appear to be no changes compared to the P50 Pocket, which launched back in December 2021. It has three cameras in a circular camera island accompanied by a flash module. The other black circular cutout on the back houses a secondary display that can display notifications and other crucial information from a variety of supported apps.
The image reveals five color options – blue, pink, rose, green, and yellow. Earlier reports have also mentioned that the device will come in white and black colors too.
The original P50 Pocket launched with the Snapdragon 888 4G chip under its hood. However, the P50 Pocket S is rumored to come with a Snapdragon 778G 4G chipset. Other than that, we expect to see a 120Hz OLED foldable display on the device, along with HarmonyOS 3, and the company’s XMAGE image processing technology. The device is expected to be quite affordable as the 256 GB edition of the Huawei Pocket S is expected to cost around 4,999 Yuan (~$689). On the other hand, its 512 GB edition, may arrive with a 6,999 Yuan (~$965) price tag.
More information about the clamshell smartphone is expected to be revealed as we get closer to the November 2 launch date, so stay tuned.
With the launch of the Apple iPhone 14 series, the company had officially killed off its iPhone mini series. Now, a new report has suggested that the base 6.1 inch iPhone’s days are also numbered.
For those unaware, there have been rumors going around that the Cupertino based giant has been working on an iPhone Ultra model. However, this doesn’t just mean that the brand is simply planning on adding a new phone to the iPhone lineup. Rather, it is rumored that the company might discontinue the 6.1 inch base iPhone model (Via PhoneArena). This rumor had sparked backlash from many, who took to Twitter to voice out their disapproval of the iPhone 15 Ultra model.
Some stated that the iPhone Pro Max models are already too large. At the moment, the base model is the only true compact flagship phone from the brand, which some people prefer. So, it is not surprising that there are people against another big iPhone model. There is also a chance that Apple will launch the iPhone 15 Ultra with some exclusive Ultra features, which has also raised concerns with its customers that do not wish to have another Pro Max model in the market, despite rumors of the Ultra being the replacement for the top end Pro Max series.
Interestingly, there was a recent rumor regarding the iPhone 15 Ultra featuring a premium titanium build. If this is true, it might address some of the issues of Apple users that complain of the iPhone 14 Pro Max being too heavy and unwieldy with one hand since titanium is 45 percent lighter than stainless steel but still just as strong. But keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report, so take this news with a pinch of salt for now.
Redmi finally confirmed today that the Note 12 series will be launched on October 27 in its home country, China. The lineup is expected to include four smartphones— Note 12, Note 12 Pro, Note 12 Pro+, and the Note 12 Pro Ultra. Now, just days ahead of the launch, some new information about the Pro phone, likely the Note 12 Pro+, has surfaced online. And the company itself has revealed some camera specifications of the device. Here are the details.
A leaked product banner shared by a Twitter user shows a Redmi Note 12 phone, likely the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ with a curved display. We can expect the panel to be AMOLED. Further, Redmi recently posted a teaser on its official Weibo handle, revealing the Redmi Note 12 Pro phones will come with a 50MP Sony IMX766 main sensor, with a 1/1.56″ outsole, and 2μm fusion large pixels. It will also have OIS (optical image stabilization).
The company says the Note 12 Pro will make use of Xiaomi’s self-developed imaging technology and will offer better image quality optimization, improved speed, as well as intent recognition. The handset is claimed to have better imaging styles and more advanced features.
The Redmi Note 12 series is said to feature an AMOLED display and support for a high refresh rate. The Pro phones in the series are expected to be powered by the Dimensity 1080 chipset. This processor has an octa-core CPU architecture design, including two Arm Cortex-A78 cores clocked at 2.6GHz, with Arm Mali-G68 GPU.
The Redmi Note 12 could support 67W charging, while the Redmi Note 12 Pro and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ may feature 120W and 210W fast charging, respectively. Rumors suggest the lineup will be released by Q1 2023 in the global market.
ZTE is not a popular smartphone brand worldwide despite being in the business for years. Yet, the company keeps releasing new models across its three brands, namely ZTE, Nubia, and Redmagic.
Back in late August, an alleged 10th Anniversary Edition of the Nubia Z40 handset received 3C certification. Two months later, this phone has been now certified by TENAA revealing some of its key features.
An upcoming Nubia-branded smartphone with model number NX703J has cleared TENAA certification. This device was earlier certified by 3C and was revealed to ship with a 66W charger.
As per TENAA, the 5G-enabled phone will be built around a 6.67-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels (FHD+) and 10-bit color depth. It will be powered by an unknown chipset with a maximum clock rate of 3.2GHz.
The handset will come with a 108MP rear camera accompanied by an 8MP shooter. On the front, it will sport a 16MP snapper. Since the number of cameras is listed as 5MP, the device may feature two more sensors on the back.
Further, the smartphone will arrive with an under-display fingerprint sensor and a 4,900mAh battery (rated). The typical value of the battery should be 5,000mAh.
Last but not least, it will be available in multiple storage options, such as 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB.
We are looking forward to learning more about this so-called Nubia 40 10th Anniversary Edition in the coming days as the brand has also started teasing it officially.
Leaked renders of the Samsung Galaxy A14 had surfaced online earlier this month. It revealed the design of the upcoming smartphone from the South Korean brand. Now tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore has uploaded new design renders of the device citing case makers as the original source of the images. The latest development corroborates the previously leaked renders of the smartphone.
As per the latest leaked renders, the Samsung Galaxy A14 will feature a flat frame design. It has three vertically stacked camera rings on the back panel and an LED flash unit beside it. The power and volume rocker buttons are located on the right edge of the device. The latter will likely double up as a fingerprint scanner. A 3.5mm headphone jack, USB-C port, and a speaker grille are all located at the bottom of the device. The Galaxy A14 is seen in Green colour but we can expect more options at launch.
The renders from case makers don’t reveal the front design of the Galaxy A14. However, in previously leaked renders, the upcoming smartphone is seen with a U-shaped notch and a slightly thick chin. The device is tipped to feature a 6.8-inch LCD display bearing an FHD+ resolution. The Galaxy A14 was recently spotted on WiFi Alliance certification website with the model number SM-A146P. The listing reveals that the device will come with dual-band WiFi support and run on Android 13 OS out of the box. Apart from this, the internal hardware specifications of the Galaxy A14 remain unknown at the moment.
Samsung is yet to reveal any official details about the Galaxy A14. We expect the smartphone to launch in the coming weeks.
Garmin is collaborating with Porsche to launch a new special edition smartwatch model. The new watch model is the Porsche x Garmin Epix 2 limited edition that comes with some exclusive watch faces and design.
The new special edition smartwatch model is essentially the same as the regular Epix 2 watch in the market. However, there are some key differences in this limited edition model. The new wearable comes with a design that is inspired by the famous sports car brand. Thus, we can see the iconic black, silver, and red color scheme along with a 22mm silicone strap and a clasp that bears the Porsche brand logo. This branding can even be seen on the start/stop button and the watch’s dial as well.
Furthermore, users can even customize the new limited edition smartwatch through a selection of various Porsche logos and designs that will be displayed on the Epix 2 watch’s face. Since the only difference is design and some software aspects, the gadget still sports a 1.3 inch AMOLED display that has a sapphire glass screen for protection. It is a touch enabled panel, but users can still control the wearable with the control buttons. As per official claims, the smartwatch can last for up to 16 days on a single full charge and comes with 10 ATM waterproofing.

Realme is gearing up to launch the Realme 10 series in the global market soon. Currently, two devices are expected to debut first – the Realme 10 and the Realme 10 Pro Plus. Both devices have made appearances on certification websites, and their specs have also been leaked.
Now, tipster Paras Guglani has shared a screenshot revealing that the Realme 10 series will globally launch in the month of November.

The Realme 10 Pro Plus recently made an appearance on the TENAA certification database revealing its design. The smartphone has many design changes including a new camera array. However, the most notable change is the display, which is a curved panel rather than a flat panel on the Realme 9 Pro Plus.
The Realme 10 Pro Plus is expected to feature a MediaTek Dimensity 1080 chipset with 8 GB / 12 GB RAM options, and 128 GB/ 256GB storage options. It will feature an AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. The device will have a 5,000mAh battery with 67W fast charging.

The Poco F4 is one of the best flagship killer smartphones released in 2022. Before its launch, there were leaks about a Pro model.
The so-called Poco F4 Pro was later revealed to be canceled. Now, months later, this unreleased smartphone appears in a video.
A Malaysia-based Xiaomi reseller called Xiaomi Kluang Technology showcased (via Xiaomiui) the canceled Poco F4 Pro in a Facebook live stream in late September. The video confirms what the initial leaks about this device stated earlier this year.
The Poco F4 Pro is indeed a rebranded Redmi K50 Pro. If it had gone official, it would have become the first Poco-branded smartphone with a QHD+ display.
The reason behind the product’s cancellation is a mystery. However, it is worth noting that the brand was undoubtedly testing it for global markets.
The phone in the video boots the last known internal MIUI Global build (V13.0.0.18.SLKMIXM). Xiaomi stopped releasing internal MIUI builds for this handset two months ahead of the launch of Poco F4.
If the Poco F4 Pro had been released, it would have offered features like a 6.67-inch QHD+ (3200 x 1440 pixels) 120Hz OLED display, MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC, LPDDR5 RAM, UFS 3.1 storage, 108MP primary camera, 20MP selfie camera, dual stereo speakers, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, 5,000mAh battery, and 120W fast wired charging support.

Furthermore, when charging a MagSafe enabled iPhone, the device can be kept in either landscape or portrait orientation. The Cube also comes with a 1.5m USB Type C to Type C charging cable and a 30W charger as well. Moving forward, the brand also listed the new extendable HoverBar Tower from Twelve South.

A new leak by tipster Digital Chat Station reveals that the Xiaomi 13 duo will sport narrower bezels than its predecessor.
According to the tipster, the Xiaomi 13 will have a curved-edge OLED panel manufactured by a China-based company. It is unclear whether its display will be supplied by CSOT or BOE. The Xiaomi 13 Pro, on the other hand, will come equipped with a Samsung AMOLED E6 display with curved edges. The tipster further said that the bezels of the Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro are narrower than those of the Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro.

Apple has transitioned to the Apple Silicon chips, and almost all the devices from the company come powered by its own processors, except for the Mac Pro, which was last launched in the year 2019.
The new Apple Mac Pro is expected to go official sometime next year, and it could end up being the most powerful computer ever launched by the company so far, thanks to the new M2-series processors from the brand.
According to a report from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the upcoming Apple Mac Pro will come powered by the new and powerful in-house chips named M2 Ultra and M2 Extreme with 24 CPU and 48 CPU cores, respectively. It will be coupled with a 76-core GPU or 152 cores GPU, along with up to 256GB of RAM.
It is also being reported that Apple is currently testing a Mac Pro configuration that features a 24-core CPU, 76 GPU cores, and 192GB of RAM. It runs the macOS Ventura 13.3 operating system, which is set to roll out today to eligible devices.
The new Apple Mac Pro is expected to launch next year, but no timeframe is available as of now. Ahead of the Mac Pro launch, the company will be launching new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros powered by the M2 Pro and M2 Max chips, as well as a new Mac Mini powered by the M2 chip. These three devices are expected to go official in the coming month, most likely next month.
Moto G52 sits just about in the middle of Motorola’s mid-range phone lineup in terms of pricing, offering a stunning display, a decent battery backup, excellent speakers, and clean software. It’s almost a perfect mid-ranger but its cameras fall short. The handset ships with a 50MP primary sensor accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide and 2MP macro camera. The device takes fairly average photos, even in broad daylight, with overprocessed elements dominating the frame. Luckily, you can improve your Moto G52’s camera capabilities with an appropriately ported GCam.
In this post, we have gathered some of the best GCam APKs for Motorola Moto G52. We have added the most stable and user-recommended versions that are expected to work for most people.
For the uninitiated, Google Camera (GCam) is a camera app developed by Google for Android OS. Initially, it was supported on all Android 4.4 and higher devices, but it became only officially supported on Google Pixel devices over time. Fortunately, some developers unofficially port GCam to other Android phones and modify versions with features only available on Pixel phones.
GCam adds plenty of impressive features to the phones, and its post-processing algorithms fairly improve the pictures. It offers a number of advantages over the stock camera, giving better exposure, greater detail, and cleaner images. Further, GCam comes with some useful features like Night Sight, Panorama, Motion Photos, Lens Blue, Astrophotography mode, and more. However, to make the best out of GCam, you’d have to tune it correctly. You can adjust it the way you want to get the best pictures.
Download GCam for Motorola Moto G52
Moto G52 comes with Camera2 API enabled, so you can easily install the GCam port on it. However, it is important that you download the appropriate port, which is supported by your device. The most stable one is GCam v8.4 port by BSG. This version offers significant improvements over Motorola’s stock camera app.
The stock camera of the phone produces photos that are over-sharpened, and the colors as well as dynamic range performances are not up to the mark. On the contrary, GCam produces images that look realistic and have better colors. It offers better details, especially in low-light situations, and there’s also better noise reduction. It eliminates the over-sharpening issue and provides a better dynamic range.
Download Urnyx05 GCam
Alternatively, you can download GCam 7.3 by Urnyx05. This port is also perfectly compatible with the Moto G52 and brings significant camera improvements. It goes without saying that both GCams listed in this post are not as good as the official version and may have some bugs.
Download GCam 7.3 by Urnyx05 for Moto G52 from here
How to Install GCam on Motorola G52
Follow the steps given below to install the GCam port on your Moto G52:
Download the GCam APK file from the above links
You will be asked to give permission for the system to install apps from unknown sources as soon as you open the APK file.
Give the permission by going to the Settings > Security/Privacy > Enable Installation from Unkown Sources.
Now, launch the installer package or APK file again.
Wait for the process to complete, and you’re all set.
Next, open GCam folder and create another folder inside with configs7 name.
Move the config file to the configs7 folder.
Now, open the Google Camera app and double-tap on the area around the shutter button.
Select the config file and press the restore button.
Head to the app drawer and then open the app again.
To recall, Moto G52 was launched earlier this year with a 6.6-inch pOLED display that offers an FHD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. It is powered by the Snapdragon 680 chipset, paired with up to 6 GB of RAM and 256 GB of native storage. The G52 packs a 5,000mAh battery that supports 30W fast charging. It runs Android 12 OS with MyUX skin on top.

So, this upcoming device is expected to be the latest addition in the series, dubbed the Sony Xperia Ace IV. The leak suggested that this device will also be made available out of Japan with a different name.

The smartphone is rumored to feature the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 chipset, which is the successor of the Snapdragon 480 featured in the Ace III. The new chipset will provide a 15% bump in CPU performance and a 10% increment in GPU performance.
In addition to that, the smartphone is said to feature a starting configuration of 6GB + 128GB. As for the battery, we can expect a 4,500mAh unit, which is quite respectable for the smaller form factor. The battery is also said to support 18W fast charging. The device is not expected to break cover anytime soon as rumors suggest a 2023 launch window.
The brand is yet to reveal anything regarding this smartphone, so we suggest our readers take these leaks with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more.
Realme 10 series is expected to debut in the global market by early November. It is speculated to hit the Indian market by the end of November. Recent reports have claimed that the company will initially announce the Realme 10 and Realme 10 Pro+ smartphones on the market.

While there is no confirmation yet, the Realme 10 Pro+ may feature an identical display. At the TENAA certification platform, the 10 Pro+ was recently seen with a curved edge AMOLED panel.
The Realme 10 Pro+ will be powered by the Dimensity 1080 chipset. It is expected to arrive in three variants: 6 GB RAM + 128 GB storage, 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage, and 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage. It is likely to feature an OIS-enabled 50-megapixel primary camera and pack a 5,000mAh battery with 67W fast charging support. The handset is expected to be available in three colors, such as Hyperspace, Dark Matter, and Nebula Blue.
Rumors are rife that the Realme 10 lineup will include multiple models, such as the Realme 10 4G, Realme 10i, Realme 10 5G, Realme 10 Pro, and Realme 10 Pro+ 5G.
In August, an upcoming clamshell phone by Huawei was approved by China’s TENAA telecom authority. The listing only revealed the images of the phone. Following reports claimed that the device may be released in China with the “Huawei P50 Pocket New” moniker. However, the company released an official confirmation that the device will be called the Huawei P50 Pocket S and it will be made official at 7 PM on Nov. 2 in the home market.
The official teaser video released by the brand does not reveal the design of the Huawei P50 Pocket S. However, it confirms that the device will be made available in as many as six colors like black, blue, pink, white, green, and yellow.

The original Huawei P50 Pocket, which went official in December 2021, was powered by the Snapdragon 888 4G mobile platform. There are a lot of rumors that the Snapdragon 778G 4G chipset will power the new Pocket S.
It is speculated that the Huawei P50 Pocket S will not feature a secondary display. The device is speculated to arrive with a 120Hz OLED foldable display, HarmonyOS 3, and the company’s XMAGE image processing technology. The inclusion of the SD778G chip is a good hint that it will be an affordable clamshell phone. The 256 GB edition of the Huawei Pocket S may cost 4,999 Yuan (~$689). On the other hand, its 512 GB edition, may arrive with a 6,999 Yuan (~$965) price tag.
It appears that the Huawei P50 Pocket S will not be the only device to debut on Nov. 2. A recent report claimed that Huawei may unveil the Huawei Watch GT Cyber alongside the P50 Pocket S.
