According to a 91Mobiles report, BMW Motorrad, the automobile giant’s motorcycle unit, is gearing up to launch a premium electric scooter in India. The model in question is the BMW CE 04 maxi scooter.

The C 400 GT maxi model had performed well for its 1 lakh INR (roughly 12,511 US Dollars) price tag, so it appears that the brand plans on launching another premium model.

With such a price tag, the company is clearly targeting the wealthy and motor enthusiasts in the country. The robust sales of the previous model likely also gave top executives more confidence in the Indian market. So now, it is rumored that BMW plans on launching the CE 04 premium electric scooter model in India through the CBU route. The report adds that the CE 04 maxi model will be imported through the CBU import and could cost somewhere between 15 lakhs INR to 18 lakhs INR (roughly 18,765 to 22, 517 US Dollars).

Notably, we had previously reported on the Indian variant of the T1x being different than the version launched in Malaysia.

It will be equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 SoC that will be paired with 4GB of RAM and up to 128GB of internal storage.

A cancelled mid-range Microsoft Surface Duo briefly appears on eBay

Microsoft Surface Duo range is a unique take on the foldable phone, with a book-like physical factor and two distinct screens instead of one folding display. However, these devices were initially quite pricey, starting at $1400.

A mid-range Surface Duo tablet that has been discontinued is now listed on eBay, according to Windows Central. The outlet was nevertheless able to save a few pictures even though the item had already been sold and the listing had been taken down.

According to the source, the tablet, code-named Cronos, was slated to be on sale later this year as a less expensive alternative to the Surface Duo 2. This means flat screens without the look bar, a plastic body, a twin camera configuration, and an upper mid-range Snapdragon processor. A precise price range wasn’t mentioned, so it’s unknown if the less expensive Surface Duo would have provided a 90Hz refresh rate like its more expensive stablemate.

The device was abandoned in late 2021 so that Microsoft could concentrate on the following high-end Surface Duo (presumably the Surface Duo 3). The launch of this main product is supposedly planned for the following year.

We haven’t yet seen a mid-range Surface Duo device, which might be a good thing. Microsoft’s initial Surface Duo was a shoddy mess when it first came out, and the Surface Duo 2 had a similar rollout. What are the chances that a third Surface Duo model will again be released with a number of problems? Even still, a more affordable gadget would increase the accessibility of Microsoft’s dual-screen devices.
