boAt Stone 135 specs
The Stone 135 is a 5W portable speaker that uses Bluetooth 5.0 as the primary mode of connectivity. It offers a range of up to 10 meters. The portable speaker also comes with a TF card slot that allows users to play songs directly using a microSD card. Other than that, FM radio can also be played directly via the speakers.
One quirky feature offered on the Stone 135 is the TWS support that allows for another speaker to be connected, providing richer and louder sound.

Last but not the least, the speaker features decent water resistance with the IPX4 certification.
While DJI is best known for launching drones, the company is also quite popular for its gimbals as well. Now, the company has launched two new gimbals, namely the RS 3 and RS 3 Pro, along with a new Transmission wireless system.
Interestingly, all three of the new products that were recently unveiled borrow features from the Chinese company’s first cinema camera Ronin 4D. The RS 3 is basically the successor to the RSC 2 and is the smaller model of the two new gimbals. It features a new axis locking mechanism that releases automatically once the gimbal is powered on. In other words, it is meant to help make the filming process set up quickly.
The RS 3 also features a new Bluetooth shutter button, which means you can begin recording wirelessly, without needing a camera control cable. Notably, the company claims a “20 percent improved performance over the RSC 2,” which should be noticeable when filming moving subjects like cars from a low angle. Other notable feature includes a 1.8 inch OLED display that should also help make finer adjustments on the go. Although, the interchangeable battery grip only offers 12 hours of battery life compared to the previous gen’s 14 hours.
The RS 3 is a handheld gimbal and weighs just 1.3 kilograms and has a maximum payload of 3 kilograms. But for those that feel that this limit is too low, DJI has another product that has a higher payload capacity. The new RS 3 Pro is the larger model between the two and weighs 1.5 kilograms but has a maximum payload of 4.5 kilograms. Similar to the base variant, the Pro model also shares all of its features like the Bluetooth shutter control button, a 1.8 inch OLED touchscreen panel, and the physical mode button on the grip.
However, there is one notable feature that the RS 3 Pro offers. It is the new LiDAR focusing technology, which was also found on the Ronin 4D. With the help of this technology and the improved motor focus, the DJI LiDAR Range Finder helps turn manual lenses into autofocus lenses. Furthermore, the ActiveTrack Pro also promises to help offer a steady and in focus shots despite demanding scenes by improving subject detection and tracking.
The company’s third and final product is the new DJI Transmission, which is its wireless video solution. Its tech again borrows features from the Ronin 4D cinema camera. It allows for remote monitoring and control of your camera, the RS 3 Pro gimbal, or even both at the same time. The new O3 Pro transmission also supports video casting up to a range of 6 kilometers at 1080p 60fps with live audio monitoring as well. The new wireless video transmission system arrives with a transmitter that sits on top of whatever device one wishes to pair it with and has a receiver mounted on a 7 inch monitor that has 1500 nits of peak brightness.
The two new gimbals from DJI starts sale today (16th June 2022), with the base RS 3 starting from 549 US Dollars. On the other hand, the RS 3 Pro costs 869 US Dollars. Prospective buyers can also bundle the RS 3 with a number of different accessories like an extra handle, a new focus motor, a carrying case, and more, but it will cost you another 719 US Dollars. Similarly, the RS 3 Pro combo includes an extended quick release plate, phone holder, new focus motor, Ronin image transmitter, and more for another 1,099 US Dollars. Lastly, the DJI Transmission starts sale later this year for 2,499 US Dollars.
The Indian-based electronics and AIoT products manufacturer Noise has launched new affordable TWS earbuds in India dubbed the Noise Buds VS104. So let’s take a look at the pricing, launch offers, and specs of the new TWS earbuds.
Noise Buds VS104 pricing and launch offers
The Buds VS104 has a retail price tag of ₹1,499, however, it is currently available with an introductory price of ₹999 on Amazon India. The TWS earbuds are available in Green, White, and Black color options.
Noise Buds VS104 specs & features
The Buds VS104 comes with large 13mm drivers and features strong bass output thanks to the Noise ‘Tru Bass’ tuning. For connectivity, the earbuds come with Bluetooth 5.2 for connectivity which provides an uninterrupted connection up to 10 meters. A convenient feature offered on the Buds VS104 is Noise’s version of instant wake and pair called ‘Hyper Sync’. This allows the TWS to connect with your paired smartphone as soon as you flip the lid of the charging case.
Noise claims that the Buds VS104 TWS can offer up to 30 hours of total playback including the charging case. The earbuds can also offer up to two and a half hours of playback time with just 10 minutes of charging.
Samsung Electronics has recently seen a drop in its market share for premium TVs. The company has apparently seen a noticeable dip, while Huawei manages to see a rise in the same category.
According to TheElecreport, analytics based firm DSCC (Display Supply Chain Consultant) has reported that the company has seen a substantial drop over two years. The South Korean tech giant’s high 20 percent market share in 2019 had dropped to just high 10 percent in 2021. On the other hand, the market share of its rival, Huawei, went up in the Chinese market for premium TVs.
In 2020, Samsung’s market share fell below 20 percent for the first time during the fourth quarter of 2020 and even down to 13 percent in Q4 of 2021. For those unaware, premium TVs include LCD panels with quantum dot films, which the South Korean firm markets as QLED. But while the brand saw a dip in its share, Huawei saw a rise in its market standing. The Chines tech giant saw a bump in premium TV share from 10 percent in 2019 to high 20 percent in 2021.
In other words, Huawei could have stolen Samsung’s market share in China. During this same period, other brands like TCL and Hisense also saw a dip in their market share in premium TVs. So despite its smartphone business being crippled, it seems that Huawei still has a strong foothold in other tech categories.
Last month, Vivounveiled the Vivo X80 and X80 Pro smartphones in China. Yesterday, the X80 Pro went official in the global markets. While there is no information on the arrival of the global Vivo X80, a recent report revealed that the company is working on the Vivo 80 Pro Plus flagship for the international markets. According to a new report by RootMyGalaxy, Vivo is working on another X80 series phone for the global market.
The publication has come across a new Vivo phone with model number V2208 in the firmware code. It has been found that the model number belongs to the unannounced Vivo X80 Lite 5G smartphone. At present, there is no information available on the specifications of the device.
Vivo X80
Vivo launched the X50 Lite model back in May 2020. It hasn’t launched a Lite model for the X60 and X70 series. The moniker of the device suggests that it could be a toned-down version of the Vivo X80 handset. We hope that the device will soon show up in the database of certification platforms, which will give us more information about it.
In related news, Vivo is reportedly working on a flagship phone powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset. This device is likely to debut in the global market with the Vivo X80 Pro+ moniker. There is a possibility that this device may come equipped with better cameras as compared to the Vivo X80 Pro.
The X80 Pro+ may feature a 50-megapixel main camera, a 48-megapixel Sony IMX598 lens, a 50-megapixel Samsung JN1 snapper, and a 50-megapixel Samsung JN2 camera. This device is also speculated to have support for 120W fast charging. It is expected to break in October this year.
Zepp (formerly Huami) is popular for its Amazfit-branded smartwatches and Xiaomi Mi Bands. Very few people know that the company also sells Amazfit-branded fitness trackers called Amazfit Band. This product line may soon get a new model after nearly two years.
Amazfit Band 5
The last self-branded fitness tracker from Zepp went official in the second half of 2020 as Amazfit Band 5. It can be termed as a pro version of Mi Band 5 as it is similar to the Xiaomi-branded wearable but with some additional features.
Recently, the Xiaomi Band 7 was released in China. It is expected to hit the international markets very soon. Ahead of that, a report by Logger (via Xiaomiui) suggests that Zepp may also release its own-branded fitness tracker soon.
However, unlike the Amazfit band 5, which is based on Mi Band 5, the upcoming Amazfit Band will not be similar to the Xiaomi Band 7. Codenamed Bari, this product will likely carry the model numbers A2177 (standard) and A2283 (NFC).
It is expected to sport a rectangular display with a resolution of 194 x 368 pixels. Most importantly, it will be backed by a 232mAh battery, which is larger than the 180mAh and 200mAh batteries present inside the Xiaomi Band 7 and Redmi Smart Band Pro, respectively.
As for software, it will ship with the new Zepp OS. Finally, it will offer GPS and pin unlock feature.
The marketing name of this forthcoming Amazfit Band is not known at the moment. Perhaps, more details may emerge in the coming days.
Last week, Huawei announced the Enjoy 50 mid-range phone in China. As scheduled, the device went on sale starting today in the home market. It offers a massive 6.75-inch display and a huge battery of 6,000mAh battery. The device carries a starting price of 1,299 Yuan (~$193).
Huawei Enjoy 50 price

These variants are priced at 1,299 Yuan (~$193), 1,499 Yuan (~$223), and 1,699 Yuan (~$253), respectively. The device comes in shades like Crystal Blue, Pearl White, and Midnight Black. The handset is a tweaked version of the Huawei Nova Y70, which went official in the Philippines last week.
Huawei Enjoy 50 specifications and features
Huawei Enjoy 50
The Huawei Enjoy 50 has a 6.75-inch IPS LCD panel that delivers an HD+ resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels, an aspect ratio of 20:9, and a pixel density of 269 ppi. Its display notch houses an 8-megapixel selfie camera.
There is a dual-camera system placed on the rear shell of the Enjoy 50. It includes a 13-megapixel main camera and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. The smartphone runs on the Harmony OS 2.0. For security, it has a side-facing fingerprint scanner.
The Kirin 710A chipset powers the Enjoy 50. A popular tipster recently revealed that the Kirin 710A chip that powers the device offers better performance than its regular version. The tipster claimed that the SoC should be called Kirin 710A+. The device packs a 6,000mAh battery that supports 22.5W fast charging. The device offers dual 4G VoLTE, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, a USB-C port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
Apple recently unveiled its latest entry in its MacBook lineup of notebooks, which were powered by its new M2 chipset. Now, a leaked benchmark has revealed the performance bump offered by its M2 chip over the previous generation’s M1 chip.
The news arrives from a leaked benchmark on GeekBench. This benchmark was of the newly announced 13 inch MacBook Pro that was running on the M2. The chip had a clock speed of around 3.49GHz, which is higher than the 3.2GHz of the last gen M1 chipset. The M2 managed to get a score of 1919 points in single core tests and 8928 points in the multi score tests.
In other words, the M2 was 12 percent faster than the M1 in single core, since it achieved just 1707 points, and up to 20 percent faster in multi core tests, with the M1 getting just 7419 points. This basically hints at the M2 being around 18 percent faster than the M1 overall, when considering the GeekBench 5 listing. However, that is not all, as the M2 chip scored 30,627 points in the Metal benchmark, which is quite a bit higher than the M1’s 21,001 score.
CPU Benchmarks have leaked for Apple's M2 chip!
3.49GHz CPU clock vs M1's 3.2GHz Single-core performance gain vs M1: 11.56% Multi-core performance gain vs M1: 19.45%
This is likely possible thanks to the 10 core GPU on the M2, over the M1’s 8 core GPU. As of right now, the latest generation of proprietary Apple chip is only available on the new 2022 MacBook Air and the 13 inch MacBook Pro model. Although, the Cupertino based giant is expected to announced new models that will feature the M2 soon. So stick around for more updates.

A few days back, the Realme Pad X was tipped to launch in India in the first half of June. Now, it is being said that the tablet’s debut in the country will be delayed. Let’s check out when it may release in the region.
According to Youtuber Sahil Karoul (via Abhishek Yadav), the Realme Pad X will launch in India before July 10. Previously, the tablet was tipped to debut in the country in mid-June.
We believe the new release timeline could be accurate. Because we are already halfway through June and Realme hasn’t announced the launch date for the tablet yet.
Talking about the product, it was first announced in China in May. It is only available in the brand’s home country for now.
The Realme Pad X is the company’s most advanced tablet to date. It comes powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 SoC and offers an 11-inch LCD screen.
Unlike other tablets in the firm’s portfolio, this one runs the Android 12-based Realme UI 3.0 for Pad software. However, it’s not known whether the product will ship with the same software outside mainland China.
The tablet’s display comes with support for stylus input and DC dimming. It houses Dolby Atmos-supported quad speakers and arrives with 33W fast charging support.
Last but not least, despite featuring a 5G-enabled Snapdragon 695 chip, the tablet only comes in a WiFi-only variant.
Nothing has been on headlines for its first ever smartphone, the Phone (1), for sometime now. With its launch edging closer, the number of rumors and teasers have also gone up. Now, the company has officially revealed its complete design and it is quite the head turner. So let’s have a look.
Ahead of the July 12 launch event for the Phone (1), the brand hosted an in person event in Switzerland for select media. Here, Nothing showcased the smartphone’s design in all of its glory, highlighting its transparent back panel. Unlike most events where the smartphone is revealed and one would get a chance at holding the new devices, the company locked the upcoming handset inside a transparent box.
Looking at a YouTube video from Rafael Zeier, the Phone (1)’s transparent back panel isn’t the only highlighting aspect of its design. The device also includes some LED lighting on the back as well, which certainly adds to its overall appeal. One strip surrounds the camera, while one is simply slanted and situated on the top right. There is also a vertical strip on the bottom of the rear shell as well.
While LED lighting is not an unseen feature, the Nothing Phone (1) easily has a unique glowing profile through its transparent back panel. It remains to be seen if the company lets users customize the color of these LEDs like some other brands. So stick around for more, as we will be covering any other notable updates regarding this phone.
Huawei is gearing up to launch its second-generation flagship true wireless earbuds in the market, dubbed Huawei FreeBuds Pro 2. While the exact launch date is not yet known, the company is expected to launch it sometime next month.
As per the report, the upcoming Huawei FreeBuds Pro 2 will be the first earphones from the brand made in collaboration with France-based audio products manufacturer Devialet.
Devialet is known for elaborately constructed and high-priced speakers and the company will be responsible for tuning the integrated speakers in the Huawei earbuds.
The Huawei FreeBuds Pro 2 will come with dual drivers where one driver will be handling the bass and another the mids and highs. The second-generation earbuds are said to deliver a frequency response range of 14Hz to 48,000Hz.
The earbuds will come with support for Hi-Res Audio and a “Triple Adaptive Equalizer” in which the volume, position, and sound are adjusted simultaneously in order to achieve optimal playback, says the company.
They are also expected to come with a more powerful Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) where the noise reduction depth can reach 47dB. As for the battery life, it is said to offer four hours of usage with ANC enabled and up to six hours of usage without ANC. It can last for about 30 hours when charged with the carrying case.
The Huawei FreeBuds Pro 2 will be launched in three color options — Blue Silver, Ceramic White, and Frost Silver respectively. In Germany, the official price recommendation will probably be 199 euros, which is about $207.
The European smartphone market has witnessed a huge 12% decline in shipments in the first quarter of 2022, as per a report. This is said to be the the lowest first quarter shipments for nearly a decade. Ongoing component shortages and COVID-19 related lockdowns in China are the main culprits here. Samsung remained as the region’s top OEM, with its highest market share since Q3 2020.
A report by Counterpoint research says that European smartphone shipments reached 49 million units in the first quarter of 2022, marking a 12% percent year-on-year (YoY) decline. This is the lowest first quarter total since Q1 2013.
Several factors such as component shortages, COVID-19 related lockdowns in China, deteriorating economic conditions and the ongoing of the Russo-Ukraine war are responsible for the decline. The report says Europe will witness more such drops in future due to the “Deteriorating macro and geopolitical environment”.
Samsung remained the largest contributor to smartphone shipments in the first quarter of 2022 with shipment share of 35 percent, the report states. Apple took the second spot with a shipment share of 25 percent. The Cupertino company saw a year-on-year decline of 6 percent.
Xiaomi ended up in the third spot in terms of smartphone shipments in Europe. The company recorded a 36 percent annual decline with a 19 percent market share.
Oppo and Realme captured the fourth and fifth spots in the European smartphone shipments market with 6 percent and 4 percent shipment share, respectively. Realme became the only OEM to register annual shipment growth in Q1 2022.
“Existing issues such as COVID-19 and component shortages have been exacerbated by new economic and geopolitical challenges,” said Counterpoint Research’s Associate Director, Jan Stryjak. “Rising inflation levels across the region are impacting consumer spending, while Samsung and Apple, Russia’s first and third ranked smartphone vendors, halted all shipments into Europe’s largest market in early March 2022,” Stryjak added.
Apple recently introduced two new laptop models at the WWDC 2022 — MacBook Air and MacBook Pro, both of which come powered by the latest Apple Silicon M2 processor.
Now, the company is expected to launch other models in the MacBook lineup refreshed with the new processor. Amid this, there are reports which claim that a new 15-inch MacBook could also get launched.
Apple MacBook Air 2022
As per the latest report from Ming-Chi Kuo, the technology giant could launch a new 15-inch MacBook powered by the M2 processor and the unannounced M2 Pro processor. The laptop is expected to go official sometime next year, i.e. in 2023.
The new 15-inch MacBook powered by an M2 chip could come dual-port 35W power adapter while configurations with the M2 Pro processor might come with a more powerful 67W adapter. These power adapters are already options for the new M2-powered MacBook Air launching next month.
Recently, there were reports about a new 12-inch MacBook but Kuo says that he has not heard anything about this. Previously, it was reported that Apple is planning to launch a new 12-inch MacBook at the end of 2023 or in early 2024.
There were also reports about Apple working on a new 15-inch MacBook Air, which might be the same device that is now being referred to as MacBook. It remains to be seen how the company decides to name this new 15-inch MacBook model.

Picking a username can be tricky but choosing the wrong one could be a disaster as most social media services won’t let you change it in the future. Snapchat users might be the ones who’d have suffered the most with this restriction. Users of the popular social media service have been requesting to add the ability to change their username ever since the inception of Snapchat. The instant messaging app has now finally heard its users, and in this guide, we’ll show you how to change your Snapchat username.
According to a recent report, users can change their Snapchat username from February 23rd onwards. This means users can now conveniently switch their usernames instead of creating new accounts. However, there is a catch while doing this, and we’ll discuss it on the run.
No longer switching accounts
Until recently, the only way someone could change their username was to start anew. This changes from February 23rd. You could change your username by following these given steps.
Tap on the Bitmoji icon in the top right corner to go to the profile section.
Go to Settings (gear icon) > Username > Change Username.
You can now update your username.
But remember the catch we mentioned earlier. Even though Snapchat will let you change your username, you will be limited by the following restrictions.
You’ll only be able to change your username once a year.
You can’t use any previously used username.
You can’t use usernames that are already taken. Also, keep in mind that you can’t use a username discarded by other users. This is to prevent the misuse of already taken usernames. The first thing you want is to block someone from becoming you.
This might be the best thing from Snapchat if they manage to do it the right way. Snapchat has already confirmed that changing the username won’t impact the user’s contacts, memories, Snap Score, or Snap code. So we hope they manage to pull it the right way.

At the beginning of this year, Samsung announced the Galaxy S21 FE 5G with Exynos 2100 onboard in India. According to GalaxyClub.nl, the South Korean company is working on a 4G variant of the S21 FE. A support page for the smartphone has gone live on Samsung Netherlands’ website, which indicates that it may not take too long for it to go official.
The SM-G990B model number belongs to the regular Galaxy S21 FE. It has been found that a new variant of the device with the SM-G990B2 model number could be in the works. The support page available on Samsung Netherlands’ site mentions the model number.
In addition, the SM-G990B2 variant has appeared in the database of the Bluetooth SIG certification platform. The listing revealed that the device carries support for Bluetooth 5.2. The publication further revealed that the device has appeared in two Scandinavian online shops. Both listings have mentioned the key specs of the device.

The retailer listing has revealed that the Galaxy S21 FE 4G will be powered by the Snapdragon 720G. The listing also says that it has a 6.4-inch screen with a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels, Android 12 OS, a 4,500mAh battery, 8 GB of RAM, and 256 GB of storage.
For photography, the Galaxy S21 FE 4G may feature a 32-megapixel front camera, and a 12-megapixel + 12-megapixel + 8-megapixel triple camera unit. Except for the change in the chipset department, the rest of the specs of the S21 FE 4G seem to be identical to its 5G sibling.
It is unclear why Samsung is planning to launch a 4G version of the S21 FE. It appears that the device will be succeeding the Exynos 990 powered Galaxy S20 FE 4G, which was announced back in October 2020.
