Xiaomi CIVI review featured — Xiaomi CIVI

Xiaomi unveiled MIUI 13 at the Xiaomi 12 series launch event at the end of December. Since then, the firm has been updating the eligible smartphones and tablets to the new version of its mobile operating system.

The new software is being finally rolled out to Xiaomi CIVI with build number V13.0.2.0.SKVCNXM. Apart from bringing new MIUI features, the latest system update for the phone also come with Android 12.

Like any other OTA software update, this one is also being seeded out in batches. In simpler words, some users may get the update earlier, while others may have to wait longer. Anyway, everyone should get access to the software in the coming days.

The Xiaomi CIVI debuted with MIUI 12.5 based on Android 11 in late September. The device was updated to MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition in November. Three months from that, it has begun to receive its first major system update in the form of Android 12-based MIUI 13.

Usually, Xiaomi provides two Android updates and three MIUI updates for mid-range and flagship smartphones. Therefore, CIVI will likely receive another Android update and two more MIUI updates in the future.

Feb 15, 2022

While the Google Pixel 6 series has seen great success, the latest flagship lineup is still quite limited in the regions it is available in. But now, the company is releasing the high end premium devices in another market, which is Singapore.

Now, the Search Engine giant’s Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will be available for purchase in the Southeast Asian country. For those unaware, the Pixel 6 series was first announced back in October of 2021. So its launch in Singapore arrives around nine months since its official release, which is quite a long time. However, Google clearly believes that it is better late than never. Similarly, the company had even launched its current flagship in Italy and Spain as well, earlier this month.

The Pixel 6 and Pixel6 Pro will be available in Singapore through the Google Store (Via 9To5Google). This appears to be a quiet launch as Google had previously confirmed that the flagship phones were on their way to Singapore, and now we even have the official pricing as well. The Pixel 6 is available in Stormy Black and Sorta Seafoam. while the Pixel 6 Pro is available in Stormy Black and Cloud White.

Looking at their pricing, the Pixel 6 starts from 999 Singapore Dollars (roughly 742 US Dollars). On the other hand, the Pixel 6 Pro is available in the region for 1,299 Singapore Dollars (roughly 965 US Dollars). Google is also releasing the smartphones with the protective covers worth around 49 Singapore Dollars (roughly 36 US Dollars), Pixel Stand that costs 119 Singapore Dollars (roughly 88 US Dollars), and a 30W USB Type C charger worth 45 Singapore Dollars (roughly 33 US Dollars).

Feb 15, 2022

The Redmi K50 Gaming Edition has been teased extensively over the past week ahead of its February 16 launch, with nearly all of its specs and features now known save for the pricing. But thanks to a new leak, the gaming phone’s alleged price tag has now been exposed as well.

The leak (via My Drivers) comes in the form of a screenshot of the device’s Tmall listing, which shows its 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant listed for 3,499 Yuan (around $550). The authenticity of the leak remains to be confirmed though.

Of course, this pricing is specific to China and the global variant will most likely be priced a bit higher. The device will probably also be ditching the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition name and may be called the POCO F4 GT globally, just like last year’s POCO F3 GT.

Presently, the key features of the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition have already been revealed. It uses a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen from Huaxing Optoelectronics and is equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. For photography, you get a 64MP main camera at the rear, and the battery is sized 4,700mAh with support for 120W charging.

A number of gamer-specific features are also offered, starting with dual shoulder keys. The device has also been claimed to achieve a couple of breakthroughs in the audio and haptics department.

OnePlus 10 Pro adds support for 1Hz AOD

Feb 15, 2022

The OnePlus 10 Pro is the brand’s latest flagship smartphone. It is currently limited to China, however, the company has started teasing its international launch. Ahead of that, the handset is receiving a new system update in its home country with a number of optimizations and a very useful feature.

OnePlus 10 Pro review featured 1 — OnePlus 10 Pro

The OnePlus 10 Pro is one of the few smartphones in the market with an LTPO 2.0 display. This means the screen on the phone can refresh as low as 1Hz to save power.

A month after the device’s release, the brand is finally making good use of the aforementioned technology by introducing a new feature. This feature is currently being rolled out with the latest A.09 firmware update.

The feature in question is support for 1Hz refresh for AOD (Always-on Display). Thanks to this new addition, users need not worry about power consumption while using AOD on their OnePlus 10 Pro.

Anyway, it is worth noting that the official changelog for the new software update says that only select AOD styles have support for 1Hz refresh rate. Hopefully, the brand extends the compatibility in the future.

Apart from this feature, the latest update brings optimizations for portrait mode shots, white balance in third-party camera apps, night mode, system fluency, haptics effect, overall performance as well as gaming, Bluetooth earphones compatibility, carry-on card label, and WiFi performance.

If you happen to own the Chinese variant of the OnePlus 10 Pro, then make sure to download and install the latest software update from Settings.

China is the largest semiconductor market, as global chip sales hit record high

By

Feb 15, 2022

A new report has revealed that the global chip sales had hit a record high last year. The market saw great performance in 2021, with China being the largest individual semiconductor market in the world.

The news arrives from SIA (Semiconductor Industry Association) earlier this week (Via LiveMint). As per the report, the chip sales across the globe reached 555.9 billion US Dollars last year. This marks a sizeable rise of 26.2 percent year on year. It further adds that the the semiconductor industry is projected to see another 8.8 percent growth this year as well as chipmakers continue to build up production capacity to meet the rising demand. China lead the market with a total sales of a whopping 192.5 billion US Dollars in 2021, marking an increase of 27.1 percent year on year.

SIA CEO John Neuffer stated that “It’s still really trending very strongly towards increased demand. We’re just not going to get this kind of slingshot effect that we had in the pandemic.” In other words, the industry may not maintain its explosive growth but will still see a steady rise year on year in 2022. Back in 2020, semiconductor sales were up by just 6.8 percent over the previous, but just a year later in 2021, chip sales crossed 1 trillion for the first time since 2018.

Notably, major chipmakers like TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company), Samsung, and Intel have announced billions of dollars in investments to expand chip production through new facilities. Neuffer added that “We think in the foreseeable future that there’s going to be plenty of demand for us to do very, very aggressive plant construction.”

Redmi Note 10 gets MIUI 13 based on Android 12

Feb 15, 2022

The Redmi Note 10 was launched early last year, targeted at those looking for some great specs without blowing a hole in their wallet. It first booted into Android 11-based MIUI 12.5 out of the box and has stayed on it ever since — until now.

Yesterday, the global variant of the Redmi Note 10 received the much-awaited MIUI 13 update based on Android 12. It is joined today by its Indian variant that got updated to the same as well (via Xiaomiui).

The update currently rolling out in India carries firmware version V13.0.0.6.SKGINXM and its changelog is rather short. Sized 2.6GB, the build’s release notes only mention improved system performance, security, and stability, although some of the MIUI 13 goodies like new wallpapers can be expected too.

Said MIUI 13 update for the Redmi Note 10 is currently under its early rollout stages so it may take a while to reach your device. Only those registered for the Mi Pilot testers program seem to be getting it at the moment, but once declared bug-free, it should be released for all.

Still, you can perform a manual check for the latest available firmware by heading over to Settings > About phone > MIUI version and tapping the “Check for updates” button.

Xiaomi working on an AR based shopping navigation system: Patent

By

-

Feb 15, 2022

Xiaomi has just been granted authorization for an interesting new technology that is based on AR (augmented reality). This new system is an AR powered shopping navigation system that was just spotted in a patent.

The patent description states that the new technology is a “shopping navigation method, device and system based on augmented reality technology AR.” In other words, its likely a system that is designed to improve the users’ shopping experience. This could be done through various ways, including providing location information of the product that the user wishes to find while even offering navigational information to guide them to the store (Via ITHome).

This would be especially intuitive with augmented reality tech, which offers a layer of information on top of the real world. Picture yourself wearing AR powered glasses while you’re looking for a particular smartphone. The Chinese tech giant’s AR shopping navigation system would help you locate the store in which the device is available and offer you waypoints as you find your way to the retailer. All in all, this is a system designed to make shopping more interactive and efficient.

Another very practical use of this technology might be in appraising products. For example, you enter a store that sells laptops, the technology might help list the specification of the laptops and its online pricing as well. Although, the patent does not hint of this feature in the patent, so take it with a pinch of salt. It is also unknown if Xiaomi is actually working on such a system or just covering the bases related to AR.

realme Narzo 50 storage and color options leaked ahead of Indian launch

By

Feb 15, 2022

The realme Narzo 50 is expected to be launched pretty soon in India, and ahead of the big day, the device’s RAM and storage options have been leaked.

Tipster Mukul Sharma has revealed to MySmartPrice that the realme Narzo 50 will sell into two memory configs. The more affordable model will have 4GB of RAM combined with 64GB of internal storage while the pricier model will come with a 6GB+128GB config.

Color options appear to be four — black, blue, gray, and green.

The tipster did not share any other details of the phone but a China Quality Certification database listing had revealed its battery specifications. The realme Narzo 50 will pack a 4,880mAh battery that could be marketed as a 5,000mAh unit. It will support 33W fast charging.

Another exclusive report by 91mobiles showed that the realme Narzo 50 features a triple camera setup at the rear, with the primary being a 50MP sensor. The info comes from its Amazon ad which also shows the device in green and grey colors. The ad also shows that the sim tray and volume buttons are positioned on the right, making it likely that the left edge will house a power button + fingerprint sensor implementation.

An exact launch date is yet to be pinpointed, but considering the device has already appeared on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), NBTC, and EEC certification websites, it should not be too far off.

POCO plans to launch new 5G phones in India to refresh existing series: Exec

By

-

Feb 15, 2022

A POCO official has just revealed the company’s plans for this year. In an interview, the executive stated that the brand is planning on launching new 5G smartphones while also refreshing its entire existing lineup of devices as well.

Speaking to Gadgets360, Anuj Sharma, Country Director of POCO India, stated that the brand is planning on refreshing its entire lineup of smartphones to the fourth generation within the next four months; or in other words, the first half of this year. The senior official said that “We’re not adding more complexity right now. We’ll definitely have at least one model in each of the series.” This means that the company will be refreshing part of the existing POCO F, X, M, and C series of smartphones.

Kicking this plan off is the POCO M4 Pro 5G, which is its first model of this year, that has just launched in India earlier today (15th February 2022). Back in December 2021 alone, the company revealed that it sold over three millions units of the POCO C series. So its clear that it is a popular brand in the region, especially in the entry level segment. But, maintaining affordable pricing but with better specifications with each passing generation isn’t easy.

The executive stated that “Affordability is going to be tough because if you look back for the last two, three years, at least in the entry level lineup, there isn’t too much of an option. Things haven’t really changed too much. I will probably breach the price points that we had on the Poco F3 GT and go up a bit more, but may not be a massive step, because I don’t really want to put a shock to the system suddenly.”

POCO F3 GT Gunmetal Silver — F3 GT Gunmetal Silver

But while smartphones is its primary focus, the company is also shifting efforts beyond handsets as well. The brand is aiming on expanding its truly wireless earbuds portfolio. Sharma said that “From a team perspective, one of our key priorities for 2022 is to go beyond phones. I don’t want to say anything, saying that we’ll definitely do it because we’ve been trying to do it for the last, I think, five quarters. And we’ve basically run into roadblocks, mostly internally saying that we don’t like it, or this is not really hitting that particular threshold.”

Moto G22 bags multiple certifications, key details revealed

Feb 15, 2022

Motorola Moto G22 launch date could be drawing near. The device was spotted at Geekbench last month. Now, it has been approved by the NBTC authority of Thailand, FCC in the U.S, and EEC. Hence, it appears that it may not take too long for the smartphone to go official.

The Moto G22’s NBTC listing has no information on its specifications. It only reveals a few things like the XT2231-3 model number and support for LTE connectivity. Last month, the XT2231-3 and its country variants with model numbers such as XT2231-1, XT2231-2, XT2231-4, and XT2231-5 were certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance. The listings revealed that the device will come preinstalled with the latest Android 12 OS and will carry support for dual-band Wi-Fi.

The FCC certification of the Moto G22 handset will be revealed that it may come in two variants such as 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage and 4 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. The XT2231-4 variant of the device has been spotted at the EEC certification. However, the EEC listing suggests that the device will carry a Lenovo branding instead of Motorola in Europe.

The Geekbench listing of the Moto G22 had revealed that it may ship with Helio P35 chipset and 4 GB of RAM. The device had scored 170 in the single-core test and 912 in the multi-core test of Geekbench. With multiple certifications and Geekbench appearance in tow, it appears that the Moto G22 may launch within Q1 2022 in different markets.

Unfortunately, there is no information on the other specs of the Moto G22. Motorola did not release a phone with Moto G21. Hence, it appears that the G22 will be succeeding the Helio G35 powered Moto G20 from last year.

Feb 15, 2022

Last week, Realme debuted the realme C35 in Thailand. This budget smartphone is also expected to launch in India very soon. The brand is yet to officially reveal the launch date. Ahead of that, details about the variants coming to the country have leaked.

According to tech influencer Mukul Sharma (via MySmartPrice), the Realme C35 will come in two memory configurations in India. He says that both the versions will have 4GB RAM as standard and they will only differ in terms of storage. The base model will have 64GB storage, while the higher model will feature 128GB storage.

Further, the handset will arrive in two colors. These hue options will be called Glowing Black and Glowing Green.

Finally, as far as specifications are concerned, the variant coming to India is expected to sport the same specs as the version released in Thailand.

Hence, the device should come with a 6.6-inch FHD+ (2408 x 1080 pixels) display (LCD) with 600 nits peak brightness level, UNISOC T616 SoC, LPDDR4x RAM, UFS 2.2 storage, 50MP (wide) + 2MP (macro) + 2MP (monochrome) triple camera setup, and 8MP front-facing camera.

It will also have features like a dedicated MicroSD card slot (up to 1TB), 3.5mm headphone jack, USB Type-C port, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, 5,000mAh battery, and 18W fast charging. Last but least, the phone will boot realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11.

Redmi K50 Gaming Edition teased to feature “breakthrough” audio setup

By

Feb 15, 2022

The Redmi K50 ‘universe’ comprised of the Redmi K50, Redmi K50 Pro, Redmi K50 Pro+, and Redmi K50 Gaming Edition is all set to go live on February 16th in China. From these, Xiaomi seems to have huge expectations from the Redmi K50 Gaming and has been teasing its features extensively for the past week, with the latest focusing on its audio prowess.

With a post on microblogging site Weibo, Redmi has talked about the concept of frequencies. While most of the music and other other “mainstream” audio is limited to the 500-2000Hz mid-frequency band, nailing higher frequencies on speakers has been asserted to be just as important. Redmi says if frequencies are higher than 2000Hz are missing, outputted audio sounds unnatural and less lively. The same holds true for lower frequency sounds as well.

Manufacturers thus aim to achieve an optimum “crossover” of both high-frequency and low-frequency sounds at the same time with a single speaker. But getting this right, unfortunately, is rather difficult.

Redmi says that the solution for this is dividing speakers into units dedicated to either higher or lower frequencies, and firing audio through them together for more balanced sound. This has been claimed to be essential across a number of gaming scenarios such as in FPS games where the ability to distinguish footsteps and gunshots is crucial.

The Redmi K50 Gaming Edition has been revealed to be doing just that and comes with a dual symmetrical stereo speaker setup by JBL, further enhanced by Dolby Atmos support. The special audio config is being marketed as a “breakthrough” and should result in significantly better speaker performance over last year’s Redmi K40 Gaming Edition.

Apart from audio, the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition has also been claimed to have achieved another breakthrough in the haptics department, coming with an enhanced version of the X-axis linear motor.

Google to launch its foldable Pixel phone in Q4 2022: Report

Feb 15, 2022

Back in 2021, we had reported on various rumors regarding the first foldable smartphone from Google. However, the latest reports regarding the foldable Pixel hinted at the device no longer being in development. But it seems that this might not be the case anymore.

According to Ross Young from DSCC, the Search Engine giant has apparently revived its foldable smartphone project. Now, the company is planning on starting the production for the Pixel Fold’s display in the third quarter of this year. Ross Young further added that the device is set to launch in the fourth and final quarter of 2022. Unfortunately, apart from these timelines, the tweet did not reveal any finer details regarding this upcoming handset.

Although, we do have some information based on our previous reports. The Pixel Fold will reportedly sport a LTPO OLED display with a variable refresh rate of up to 120Hz. On the rear, it was believed to feature the 12.2 megapixel Sony IMX363 sensor paired with 12 megapixel Sony IMX386 sensor for an ultra wide angle lens and two 8 megapixel Sony IMX355 sensors as well. Other features include Android 12L operating system. Unfortunately, this is still an unconfirmed report so take it with a pinch of salt and stick around for more, as we will be providing updates when additional information is available.

Motorola Edge 30 Pro may cost under ₹50,000 for 8GB + 128GB variant

Feb 15, 2022

Motorola has scheduled a global launch event for February 24. The Lenovo-owned brand is expected to unveil the Motorola Edge 30 Pro at this conference. This handset is said to be a rebranded Moto Edge X30, the world’s first Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 smartphone. Ahead of its official debut in the international markets, certain details about its Indian variant have emerged.

According to tipster Yogesh Brar, the Motorola Edge 30 Pro will arrive in a single memory configuration in India. The phone will be only available in an 8GB + 128GB version.

He further states that the device will have support for 13 5G bands. But unfortunately, just like the memory variant, it will be available in a sole Cosmic Blue color variant.

Unlike most recently released Android smartphones, this one will ship with Android 12 out of the box. It will be also eligible for two Android updates throughout its lifetime. So buyers can expect to use Android 13 as well as Android 14 on this handset in the future.

Finally, the leaker says that the phone will cost around ₹45,000-₹50,000 in India. This goes in line with the retail box leak from yesterday, which suggested an MRP (Maximum Retail Price) of ₹55,999. Usually, products don’t sell at their MRP, and therefore, we also guessed it to be priced under ₹50,000.

ASUS ROG Phone 5s series launched in India with Snapdragon 888+ and fancy RGB lighting

By

Feb 15, 2022

The ASUS ROG Phone 5s series was first launched in August last year but did not make its way to some markets including India. That changed today, though, with a virtual launch event lifting the curtains on the Indian variants of both phones. While the duo is identical in terms of specs, the Pro variant differs in terms of memory configs and design.

First things first, the ASUS ROG Phone 5s series is equipped with the Snapdragon 888+ CPU that’s aided by the Adreno 660 for graphics. The chip is top-of-the-line but is now superseded by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, although both should offer similar performance.

The displays on both models are again identical. Sized 6.78″, they’re super-fluid 144Hz FHD+ sAMOLED panels with 24ms touch latency and support for HDR10+. Touch sampling rate stands at 300Hz and the brightness peaks out at 1200nits. For protection, there’s Gorilla Glass Victus.

Audio is handled by front-firing 7-magnet stereo speakers with Dirac HD Sound. The battery is sized 6,000mAh but is split into two 3,000mAh units for improved thermals. It can be filled up to 70% in just 30 minutes thanks to 65W charging support.

The temps are kept under control through an extensive cooling system comprised of a couple of large graphite cooling pads and a ‘copper 3D vapor chamber.’ An optional cooling fan accessory that can be attached to the back is available too.

For photography, you get a triple camera setup at the back comprised of 64MP primary (Sony IMX686), 13MP ultrawide, and macro cameras. On the front, there’s a 24MP selfie snapper.

On top of all of the above, the ASUS ROG Phone 5s series comes with a number of gaming-specific features as well such as dedicated triggers, landscape USB-C charging, intelligent Wi-Fi/mobile data switching, and Aura RGB Lighting.

The key difference between the ROG Phone 5s and ROG Phone 5s Pro lies in the rear RGB lighting system. While the standard model features regular RGB lighting at the back, the Pro model takes things a bit further with a mini-display with a bunch of pre-defined animations for various scenarios. Additionally, the Pro variant is only available with 18GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 512GB of UFS3.1 storage.

The ROG Phone 5s starts at Rs 49,999 for the 8GB+128GB config while the ROG Phone 5s Pro sells at Rs 79,999 for its sole config. Both phones are selling exclusively on Flipkart.
