Last month Motorola announced two amazing flagship phones: the Motorola X30 Pro and the Motorola S30 Pro. While the former is the top-tier flagship, the latter is a flagship killer more focused on the quality price ratio. That is the reason why it is definitely one of the most interesting phones of this year for those who search for the max performance at an affordable price. But in order to understand whether or not this is the best flagship killer you can buy, it is worth comparing it to its most important rivals in the current market. Among these, we got the Realme GT 2 released earlier this year: we chose this device because it is currently available at very interesting street prices, so it is a perfect rival for the new Lenovo handset. So, here is a comparison between the main specifications of the Realme GT 2 and the Motorola X30 Pro.

Design
The design of the Motorola Moto S30 Pro is more premium and curated than the Realme GT 2. First of all, this device is thinner, lighter, and more compact than its rival. Further, it comes with a curved screen at the sides, just like the most beautiful flagships. Last but not least, it has a glass back protected by Gorilla Glass 5 and it is splash and dust resistant. You can not find any of these pros on the Relame GT 2, but it is still an interesting device because two of its three color options are made with a special bio-polymer resembling the touch and feel of real paper. You can even draw on the phone with a pencil and erase with a rubber. However, this is not enough for it to win the design comparison as we prefer the elegance of the Motorola S30 Pro. Do you agree with us?
Display
The display of the Motorola Moto S30 Pro looks better than the one found on the Realme GT 2. It is a P-OLED panel manufactured by LG which is able to show up to one billion colors. It has a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a great 144 Hz refresh rate, and the HDR10+ certification. It comes with a diagonal of 6.55 inches, curved edges, and an in-display fingerprint reader. The Realme GT 2 has an OLED display with a Full HD+ resolution and HDR10+ as well, but its refresh rate is lower at just 120 Hz and it is not able to show one billion colors. On the other hand, it is the only one featuring stereo speakers, even though it does not provide a 3.5 mm audio jack. Do you prefer having a better display or better audio on a phone?
Specs & Software
Even though these devices are very similar in terms of performance, the Motorola Moto S30 Pro is slightly better. First of all, it has a superior chipset: the Snapdragon 888+ is actually an upgrade of the Snapdragon 888 found on the Realme GT 2. It is a chipset built with a 5 nm production process coming with an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X1 CPU running at a max frequency of 2.99 GHz, three Cortex A78 CPUs running at 2.42 GHz, and four Cortex A55 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, as well as an Adreno 660 GPU. The chipset is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage, while the Realme GT 2 stops at 256 GB of internal storage in its most expensive configuration. Both handsets run Android 12 out of the box, customized by Realme UI 3.0 and MYUI 4.0, respectively. Note that the GT 2 will get three major Android updates and four years of security patches as per the latest Realme update policies.
Camera
The Realme GT 2 and the Motorola S30 Pro come with the same main camera: a 50 MP Sony IMX766 sensor with a 50 MP resolution, an f/1.8 focal aperture, and OIS. The Motorola actually sports a better ultrawide camera with a 13 MP resolution (against just 8 MP), as well as a better front camera with a 32 MP resolution (against 16 MP). So, we can definitely say that the Motorola S30 Pro has a better camera setup.
The most important advantage of the Realme GT 2 over its rival is definitely the battery capacity. Thanks to a 5000 mAh battery, it lasts a lot longer on a single charge and its rival is not able to compete in any way, especially if we consider that it has similar specifications but a 4400 mAh battery. The charging technologies are very similar, so expect similar charging speeds, but the Motorola will obviously be quicker to reach full charge due to its smaller battery.
Price
The Motorola S30 Pro starts from €330/$330 in the Chinese market, while the Realme GT 2 can easily be found for less than €400/$400 in the global market. Overall, the Motorola S30 Pro is superior, if we exclude the battery.
Since the launch of the MIJIA M365 electric scooter in 2017, Xiaomi has continued to improve on the model with subsequent releases due to the popularity of the e-scooter. Earlier this year, the company unveiled the MIJIA Electric Scooter 3 Lite in China. The tech giant has now quietly launched the same model but named Xiaomi Scooter 3 Lite in Europe.
The Xiaomi Electric Scooter 3 Lite is currently accessible in several countries on the continent through Amazon. The scooter, for example, costs €446.27 ($444.07) in France, €449.99 ($447.77) in Spain, €453.71 ($451.47) in Italy, and €495.88 (US$493.43) in the Netherlands. While most countries only offer the e-scooter in white at the moment, a black variant of the scooter is available in Spain. The scooter retailed at 1,899 yuan (~$298) in China and so, is selling at almost twice the price in Xiaomi’s home market.
As a reminder, the Xiaomi Electric Scooter 3 Lite’s frame is said to be 10mm thinner than that of the MIJIA Electric Scooter 1s which was launched in 2020. The reduced frame size is said to offer the scooter a lower center of gravity and a more stable ride. The body is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material, which makes the body lighter and easier, and more convenient to carry.
In terms of design, the Xiaomi Electric Scooter 3 Lite removes the complicated design of the forehead to create a visual minimalist and light feeling. At the same time, the light is moved down to “reduce the burden” on the forehead. The screen ratio of the instrument cluster is also increased and you get an optimized screen control experience.
Furthermore, the new electric scooter has a 13% increase in climbing ability, a maximum speed of 25km/h, and a rated power of 250W. The scooter’s range is just 20km making it suitable for short commutes. Also, the front hub cover is set to add retro elements.
LG Electronics has announced it will incorporate non-fungible tokens (NFTs) technology in some of its smart TVs. This comes just a few weeks after a similar move by Samsung. LG has also floated a new NFT marketplace called LG Art Lab. The first artwork from the new NFT platform will come from sculptor Barry X Ball.
The service will be available from September 22, 2022, when the first artwork will drop. The app is accessible in the US market for LG smart TVs running on WebOS 5.0 or later. You can download the app from the TV’s home screen. Subsequently, users could be able to buy and sell artworks on the platform via NFT drops. The first drop features the metallic-looking NFT from Barry Ball. Users will use the USD coin stablecoin platform to purchase artwork on the app. The user will scan the QR code and open the Wallupto app on a smartphone to complete the transaction.
The LG NFT platform is built on Hedera which uses the hashgraph technology. Most platforms like Ethereum and Solana utilize Blockchain technology. It is claimed that hashgraph is faster and more efficient than Blockchain. LG says the NFT drops will be released monthly. There is no activity currently on the LG Art Lab and pricing details are lacking.
The app features a video of Barry X Ball promoting the upcoming NFT drop on 22 September. LG is silent on the availability of the LG Art Lab in other markets. The artwork can be displayed on the smart TV when not in use.
In recent years, more and more companies have started to focus AI and Robots. Recently, Xiaomi unveiled its bionic robot called CyberOne, which looked quite interesting and advanced. And Last week, during the China International Service Trade Fair, Lenovo unveiled its first self-developed “remote stand-in” robot called the Lenovo Morningstar Robot S1.
As a “remote stand-in” robot, Morningstar S1 innovatively integrates the metaverse and industrial robots, says Lenovo. The robot is claimed to be used for remote inspections. It can be widely used in ordinary manual assembly lines, spraying workshops, radioactive laboratories, and other environments according to the needs of different production scenarios.
Morningstar S1 comes with a pair of AR glasses that can be used to view all the images and videos the robot captures in real-time. As per the company, the Robot’s body is made up of recycled plastic and low-carbon aluminum, which improves performance and durability while also leaving fewer carbon footprints, hence being more environment friendly.
Lenovo Morningstar Robot is said to have a height of 142cm, which is somewhat similar to the height of human vision. It uses a four-wheel independent suspension design, which improves the S1’s walking stability. It also provides a stable image output thanks to the addition of a two-axis high-performance gimbal. The robot is claimed to offer stable and clear images. It also reduces dizziness when users monitor remotely.
The Lenovo robot seems like a great product that can help many companies to a large extent. It has been developed for commercial use and we are not aware of its pricing. Moreover, the robot will likely be sold only in Mainland China.
LG has showcased its next-generation MoodUP smart refrigerator during the ongoing IFA 2022. The new smart refrigerator features a user-controlled LED panel that enables it to display a variety of color combinations. The door-mounted LED panels have 22 colors on the top and 19 colors on the lower panel. The refrigerator has a single-door and a four-door variant.
The IFA 2022 in Berlin, Germany has already seen a raft of unique products being showcased. The MoodUP uses the ThinQ app to mix and match colors while several preset modes are available. The preset modes include place, mood, pop, and season. It also has a standard grey and white combination mode.
The door-mounted LED panels when a person walks toward the fridge or when the door is left open. It also syncs with the music when the Bluetooth speaker is connected to an input source. The MoodUP features LG’s advanced refrigeration technology and AI chip. It could also feature the LG InstaView technology that allows the user to view what’s inside without opening the door. While LG was silent on InstaView and smart cooling technologies, we expect the LG MoodUP to be brimming with advanced technologies. There are still lots of details yet to be released by LG. This includes its pricing as well as the launch date.
An AI-powered smart refrigerator with a colorful Bluetooth speaker mounted atop it is a great view. We await official details of the LG flagship refrigerator.
Huawei is slated to launch the Huawei Mate 50 Pro alongside a bunch of other smartphones on September 6.

Newer Huawei phones are limited to 4G connectivity due to the sanctions imposed by the US government. However, a company named SoyeaLink sells a case for Huawei P50 Pro, which enables 5G support. According to certifications, this firm will release similar cases for the upcoming Huawei Mate 50 series.
Huawei Mate 40 Pro
Three new 5G cases from SoyeaLink have been certified by China’s MIIT (Ministry of Industry and Information Technology). They bear model numbers SY108-618, SY108-658, and SY108-688.
These cases are expected to be designed for Huawei Mate 50, Huawei Mate 50 Pro, and Porsche Design Huawei Mate 50 RS. According to reports, there will be a fourth device called Huawei Mate 50e. Hence, there may not be a 5G case for it.
As per leaks, all the aforementioned Mate 50 series models will be powered by Qualcomm chipsets. The vanilla, Pro, and Porsche Design variants are said to house a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC. Whereas, the Mate 50e is tipped to feature a Snapdragon 778G chip.
These two system-on-chips come with a 5G modem as standard. But on the forthcoming Huawei smartphones, 5G connectivity will be disabled on them. Hence, the SoyeaLink cases.
The SoyeaLink case for the Huawei P50 Pro weighs 52g and measures 3.2mm in thickness. It features a 5G model with an eSIM. It runs on a 1.35GHz dual-core CPU and supports sub-6GHz 5G (NSA and SA). It is priced at ¥800 ($115).
Similar specs and prices are expected for the yet-to-release three cases for the Huawei Mate 50 series.
