The Xiaomi 13 series is believed to be the next flagship from Xiaomi. While the lineup may include multiple models, the company is likely to announce the Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro in November 2021. Tipster Digital Chat Station has been consistently leaking information about the Xiaomi 13 series. A new leak by him reveals the display resolution of the Xiaomi 13.

The Xiaomi 12, which debuted in December 2021, is a compact flagship phone featuring a 6.28-inch AMOLED display with curved edges. It carries support for a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate.

Rumors surrounding the Xiaomi 13 have claimed that it will continue to be a compact flagship featuring a slightly bigger display. The Xiaomi 13 is expected to feature a 6.36-inch OLED display with ultra-narrow bezels. The machine translation of DCS’ new leak states that it will be a “straight screen.” As mentioned above, the Xiaomi 12 featured a smaller display with curved edges. Hence, there is a possibility that the Xiaomi 13 Pro’s screen will have curved edges.

The tipster further claimed that the technical data of the engineering prototype of the Xiaomi 13 reveals that it supports a Full HD+ resolution. He went on to say that the phone may support 1K or 1.5K resolution. The Redmi K50 Ultra, which debuted in August in China, carries support for a 1.5K resolution of 1220 x 2712 pixels. The vanilla 13’s screen may support the same resolution.

The Xiaomi 13 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. It is expected to feature a 50-megapixel + 50-megapixel dual camera setup on the back. There is no information on the Xiaomi 13’s battery capacity. However, reports have claimed that the device will have a single-cell battery with 100W rapid charging and 50W wireless charging.

According to a new leak by reliable tipster Digital Chat Station via TechGoing, OnePlus’ next flagship phone featuring the SM8550 chip will debut by the end of 2022.

The SM8550 chip that the tipster is talking about is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile platform, which is expected to launch in November this year. Rumours are rife that the SD8G2 will be a 4nm chip with a 1+2+2+3 architecture design instead of 1+3+4, which was seen on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipsets.

The alleged OnePlus 11 Pro 5G will not be the first Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 to launch in the market. Rumors are rife that Xiaomi may unveil the Xiaomi 13 and 13 Pro with SD8G2 onboard in November.

Oppo has just officially unveiled its new Service Center 3.0. With this, the company plans on greatly improving the service experience for its loyal customers. We got to experience this first-hand, thanks to Oppo offering us a visit to one of these modern service centers in India. So let’s have a look at what’s new with Service Center 3.0.

After-sales is an integral part of a brand’s operations given how simply selling a smartphone to customers is not the end goal for a company. Ensuring robust post-sale services to its customers helps maintain brand image and goodwill while also building trust regarding the smartphone maker’s commitment to both quality and customer relations. While every OEM offers after-sale customer service, Oppo seeks to take this a step further with its new Oppo Service Center 3.0 experience.

Oppo

Oppo’s Customer service Head, Saurabh Chaturvedi stated that “Having a customer-first model, we believe in listening to customer feedback on various channels and deploying initiatives that are best suited for their needs. The recurring insight coming from our conversation with them was a need for a transparent, convenient, and premium service experience. Attuned to this feedback, we set a new industry benchmark in after-sales servicing with the launch of service center 3.0. Further, to offer a faster, easier, and more convenient customer experience, we have introduced device pickup and drop services which will ensure accessibility of quality technology across the country.”

The brand will offer full transparency during servicing. This means that the company’s service team will work on your device right in front of you for quality assurance. Oppo does place an emphasis on booking an appointment as it helps the service center procure any necessary parts and equipment before hand, which will help reduce the time taken for servicing. Once work has begun, the company claims that you will have a working smartphone in your hand within the hour.

At the moment, Oppo’s latest Service Center 3.0 is located in Chandigarh, India, which is also the site we visited for the media briefing. The Service Center 3.0 featured a new modern look, which blended Experience store aesthetics with a service center’s functionality. There were comfortable couches to sit and wait, while the center also offered magazines, a smart TV, and even a small private area as well for customers that may need to attend important business calls. There were even small toys to keep kids occupied.

Oppo

The Oppo Customer Service Head confirmed that all of the current service centers are planned to be upgraded to the Service Center 3.0 standards in the near future. Right now, four of such state-of-the-art centers are already open, with one situated in Lucknow, Chandigarh, Calicut, and Kochi. Oppo will also offer users updates through emails and even SMS regarding the repair status of the customer’s device to ensure transparency remotely as well.

Here’s some quick info regarding Oppo Service Center 3.0:

  • Repairs will be operational across 13,000 pin codes in India.
  • Repaired devices have an expected return time of 3 to 5 working days.
  • Senior citizens are offered the option of a home pick up and delivery for Oppo products.
  • OPPO plans to expand its service center 3.0 upgrade to all the service centers by 2024 across Tier 1, 2, and 3 cities in India.

Xiaomi 12T

A person from Peru claims that they have got hands on the yet-to-launch Xiaomi 12T. In a conversation with Xiaomiui, they disclosed that they bought the handset from a store where it was on pre-sale.

Apart from revealing certain features, the person has also shared images of the phone. Going by the pictures, the Xiaomi 12T looks near-identical to the Redmi K50 Ultra, which is expected to release as Xiaomi 12T Pro with a 200MP main camera.

Talking about specs, the Xiaomi 12T with model number 22071212AG is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8100 Ultra SoC. Despite housing a high-end chipset, the phone is limited to recording videos in 4K 30fps. We do not know if the company will add support for 4K 60fps recording via a software update in the future.

Further, the device boots MIUI 13 based on Android 12. It is backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for 120W fast wired charging. The charger is included in the retail box.

On the front, the smartphone sports a 6.67-inch centered punch-hole OLED display with a resolution of 2712 x 1220 pixels (1.5K). Going by the screen resolution and size, it could be the same panel used by Redmi K50 Ultra.

There’s a triple camera system on the rear comprising a 108MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide, and a 2MP depth sensor. For selfies and video calls, it uses a 20MP shooter.

The handset arrives in 8GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB memory configurations. The person purchased the latter variant for approximately $616 in Peru. Anyway, the pricing may differ across different markets.

Motorola is preparing to announce a couple of new Edge series of smartphones soon. But it appears that there are multiple other launches outside of the lineup as well, with one of them including a new Moto E22i model that was just spotted on a certification website.

Motorola Moto E22s

Previously, we had also reported on this new E series model being spotted on the FCC and TDRA certifications websites. And now, the Moto E22i has also surfaced on another such database, which is the NBTC website. In all three listings, we can see that the upcoming smartphone has a model number of XT2239-19. Furthermore, these listings also hints that the handset in question will have a global launch.

Based on its name, we can safely assume that the Moto E22i is an affordable smartphone that will target the low cost budget category in the market. But unfortunately, the latest sighting on the Thai based certification platform did not reveal any other finer details regarding the new device. So we still have no information related to its specifications and design as of right now.

Although, the certifications does make it clear that the model will not feature 5G connectivity. Notably, the two IMEI numbers on FCC also indicate that it will arrive with support for dual SIM. This is all the information we have at the moment, so stick around for more as we will be providing updates when additional details is available regarding this smartphone.
