Oct 11, 2022

Huawei has a clamshell foldable smartphone in the form of the Huawei Pocket P50, and now it is being reported that the company is gearing up to soon launch a successor model in this foldable lineup.

A tipster from China has claimed that a new model in the Huawei P50 Pocket series will be launched in the Chinese market by the end of this month. However, the company is yet to revealed anything related to this new phone.

As per the report, the upcoming smartphone model will come with a 6.9-inch internal display and will lack the external screen. The device will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G processor which will be limited to 4G connectivity.

In the camera department, there will be a triple-camera setup on the back which will include a 40-megapixel primary camera sensor, a 13-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 32-megapixel hyperspectral lens.

If the previous reports are to be believed, then the smartphone is likely to be called Huawei P50 Pocket New and is expected to be priced much lower than the original model as the company is aiming to undercut the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip series.

The pricing of the upcoming foldable smartphone from Huawei could be as low as 50 percent than its predecessor. The starting price of the smartphone with 256GB of internal storage could be 4,999 yuan (~$695) but it’s just a speculatoin at this point in time.

Samsung is also rumored to be working on a budget foldable smartphone under its Galaxy A-series but we may have to wait for a couple of years for the affordable Galaxy A-series foldable smartphone to be available in the market.

Oppo is working on a new premium mid-range smartphone called the Oppo Reno 9. Leaks regarding the upcoming device have already started to surface, revealing some key specifications along with the retail box of the Reno 9. Now, another such leak has hinted at the camera array design of the smartphone.

Popular Weibo tipster @熊猫很禿然 has shared an image showing the camera island of the upcoming Reno 9.

The overall camera design appears to be the same as the last generation, with two large cutouts and one small cutout. In addition to a ring flash, the image reveals another flash module, likely with a different color temperature. Details regarding the cameras are still largely unknown, but a previous leak suggests that the device might feature a 64MP primary sensor. It remains to be seen if this is an improvement or a downgrade compared to the current Reno 8, which uses the tried-and-tested Sony IMX766 sensor.

Other than the camera, the leaks suggest that the device will be equipped with the Snapdragon 778G chipset. The Reno 8 Pro, on the other hand, can break cover with the Dimensity 8100 onboard. Additionally, the Pro model is also said to have a 50MP Sony IMX766 sensor for the primary camera. The last bit of information available on the devices states that they could feature 4,500mAh capacity batteries.

The Reno 9 series will likely debut in Q4 this year in China. So, we expect more details to emerge very soon.

Oct 11, 2022

A recent law by the European Union has forced Apple to adopt a USB Type-C port for charging Apple iPhone. Now, it is being reported that the Cupertino-based tech giant will also adopt USB-C ports for other products.

The latest report from Mark Gurman of Bloomberg claims that Apple will transition to USB-C ports for all the AirPods models as well as the Mac accessories like Magic Keyboard and Magic Trackpad from the year 2024.

Mark Gurman believes that Apple will beat the legislation’s date of application in late 2024 with most of its products. The iPhone 15, launching next year, will come with a USB Type-C port, while the iPad is expected to switch to USB-C by the end of this year.

He notes that all AirPods models, as well as the Magic Mouse, Magic Keyboard, and Magic Trackpad, will need to make the switch when new versions are released. He anticipates several major Mac updates next year, including a new iMac and a Mac Pro.

It is also being said that moving to USB Type-C port on its devices will just be a temporary solution to avoid getting banned in the European market. Eventually, the company aims to shift entirely to inductive charging.

V3s Max box and other robot vacuum box is about the same size, inside in addition to the robot vacuum and charging dock, there is a remote control, 2 batteries, a filter, and 2 extra side brush. A power adapter, user manual, and 3 dust bags.

Dustbin also has a Cleaning tool on top that helps you clean up hair that gets tangled in the vacuum. I really like the design so I don’t lose this little thing again.

2-in-1 Robot Vacuum and Mop

When you look at the end of the robot vacuum, you know it supports mopping. 600ml large dustbin and 200ml water tank allow the V3s Max to vacuum and mop at the same time. Unless there are special cases, the V3s Max is able to clean the floor cleanly.

ILIFE HOME APP

Of course, it can be controlled with APP and you can set the running time of the robot vacuum. The APP UI is relatively simple, so the advantage is that even if you do not want to open the phone, just use the remote control or manually open the vacuum can be cleaned.

2000Pa Strong Suction

A big upgrade to the V3s Max is the 2000pa powerful suction, which doubles the suction power compared to the Pro version. The effect of strong suction is very obvious, if you have a large carpeted area on the floor in your home like our company, then the Max version will be a better choice.

If there is a lot of hair and pet hair on the floor, V3s Max can also better clean them up. Do you remember the three dust bags in the package? You can replace the dustbin with a dust bag, so you can also clean your robot vacuum more easily.

90mins Long Runtime

Self-emptying robot vacuum cleaner lasts up to 90 minutes of work, automatically docks and recharges when the battery power gets low, the robot vacuum is always prepared to clean your floor.

POCO unveiled the POCO F4 5G this year. It debuted a tweaked version of the Redmi K40s, which was made available exclusively in the Chinese market. A new report by Xiaomiui has revealed the key specifications of the POCO F5 5G.

The report reveals that the POCO F5 5G will be a rebranded version of the Redmi K60 5G, which is expected to debut in Q1 2023. A new Xiaomi phone with model number 23013RK75C (Chinese variant) has appeared in the IMEI database. Its Indian variant with the 23013PC75I model number and the global version with the 23013PC75G model number have also surfaced in the IMEI database.

The handset will first debut in China with the Redmi K60, and later it will debut as the POCO F5 5G in global markets and India. In the 23013PC75G/I model number, the “23” means 2023, the “01” means January, the letters “PC” refers to POCO, the 75 hints to “M11A” model number, and G/I refers to Global/India. In the same way, the letters “RK” in the 23013RK75C model number seemingly hint at the Redmi K-series for the Chinese market.

The report further states that the POCO F5 has a “Mondrian” codename. It will arrive with an AMOLED display that produces a 2K resolution of 1440 x 3200 pixels, a 120Hz refresh rate, and 1000 nits of brightness. The device will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1. The same specs are likely to be available on the Redmi K60. The other specifications of the POCO F5 / Redmi K60 are yet to be revealed.

With eSIM functionality becoming more popular day by day, OEMs will soon replace physical SIM cards with electronic SIM cards. Although there is still time for that to happen since most smartphones don’t support eSims, not even alongside a standard SIM card. Xiaomi’s smartphone lineup was no exception to this. However, the Chinese company has rectified this with its latest Xiaomi 12T Pro.

Xiaomi 12T Pro was introduced in the global market on October 4, and it is the company’s first globally launched smartphone to offer eSim functionality. However, it is supported by a limited number of carriers, and the availability may vary depending on the country/region and carrier.

It is worth noting that the 12T Pro was launched in two sim card configurations— nano SIM + eSIM and nano SIM + nano SIM. Currently, users residing in countries like Germany, Italy, France, Japan, and Malaysia, among others, can use eSim. You can check the full list of countries/regions, and carriers with eSIM support here.

eSIM functionality is also available on the Redmi Note 10T, but only in Japan. Further, it is reported that the upcoming Xiaomi 12 Lite NE will also support this feature.

To recall, the Xiaomi 12T Pro comes with a 6.67-inch AMOLED display offering a resolution of 2712×1220 pixels and a maximum refresh rate of 120 Hz. The handset is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, clubbed with 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB storage.

It is equipped with a new 200-megapixel primary sensor. The handset also has an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera with an F/2.2 aperture and a 2-megapixel macro camera. On the front, the device comes with a 20-megapixel selfie camera. 12T Pro has a 5000mAh battery and supports 120W fast charging.
