Xiaomi is gearing up to launch the next-generation K50 series smartphones in the Chinese market. While the company has not yet confirmed the launch date, the devices are expected to go official later this month.
Now, with the launch date nearing, a new leak has surfaced online related to the Redmi K50 and K50 Pro smartphones, which reveals the camera module design for the phones as well as the camera setup.
An image showcasing the phone cases for the Redmi K50 and K50 Pro smartphones has surfaced online. In the photo, it appears that both the phones have a triple-camera setup with sensors arranged in a triangular shape and placed on a rectangular module. The whole camera setup is placed in the top-left corner.
Previous reports have revealed that the Redmi K50 series smartphones will feature an OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate support and a punch-hole cutout on the top of the screen for housing the camera sensor.
Internally, the K50 will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset while the K50 Pro will pack MediaTek Dimensity 8000 chipset. They will also come with fast charging support, rated at 66W and 67W respectively.
The phones will be running the MIUI 13 custom user interface based on the Android 12 operating system. The company will be launching four models in the lineup and three of them have already passed through the TENAA certification process in China, which indicates that the launch date for these smartphones isn’t far away.
Lenovo is expected to announce the launch date of the Legion Y90 anytime now, but ahead of that, the gaming phone has made an appearance on Geekbench, giving a glimpse into its performance.
The phone with model number L71061 will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor and Geekbench reveals that it will be booting into Android 12 out of the box, most likely layered with Lenovo’s skin on top. The listing reveals 18GB of RAM out of which 16.65 is actually available (via MySmartPrice).
Benchmark scores stand at 1227 and 3780 in the single-core and multi-core tests, respectively, which are only a slight upgrade over the preceding Legion 2 Pro model. Hopefully, better results will be seen once retail units begin flowing in.
The Lenovo Legion Y90 gaming phone series is expected to be launched as Lenovo Legion 3 Pro and 3 Elite in global markets and will sport a 6.9″ FHD+ AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate.
A range of gaming-specific features will be offered including RGB lights, a twin cooling fan system, ultrasonic shoulder keys, and two rear capacitive buttons. The phone will pack dual 2,800mAh batteries, totaling at 5,600mAh, with support for 68W charging.
For photography, you get a dual-camera setup comprised of 64MP and 13MP sensors. Selfies will be handled by the single 16MP sensor upfront.
At the Realme GT 2 series launch event in China in early January, the brand announced a new laptop called Realme Book Enhanced Edition. A little over a month later, this notebook is now said to debut in India under a different name. A rough launch timeline for the computer’s launch in the country has also been tipped.
Realme Book Enhanced Edition
According to Mukul Sharma (via 91Mobiles), Realme will launch a new laptop in India by April. This notebook will be officially called Realme Book Prime.
The tech influencer says that the computer will most likely be a rebranded Realme Book Enhanced Edition. He also adds that the product will also make its way to other international markets.
Talking about specs, the Realme Book Enhanced Edition sports a 14-inch 2K display (LCD) with a 100% sRGB color gamut, 400 nits peak brightness, and 3:2 aspect ratio. It is powered by an 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11320H processor paired with VC liquid cooling system.
The laptop comes with 16GB LPDDR4x RAM and 512GB PCIe SSD. It runs MicrosoftWindows 11 and gets its juice from a 54Wh battery.
The computer offers connectivity options, such as WiFi 6, a USB Type-C port with Thunderbolt 4, another USB Type-C port (USB 3.2 Gen 2), a USB Type-A port (USB 3.1 Gen 1), and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It also has features like a backlit keyboard, dual stereo speakers, fingerprint sensor, ColorOS PC Connect.
Finally, the notebook measures 14.9mm in thickness, weighs 1.47kg, and arrives in two colors (Sky Blue, Island Grey).
According to sources close the matter (Via ArsTechnica), Team Green’s deal with the Japanese multinational conglomerate has collapsed due to regulators in the US, UK, and EU raised various concerns regarding the possible market effects it will have on rivals within the semiconductor industry. Some of these concerns included anti competitiveness and even national security risks, while the known graphics card maker also faced a lawsuit by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) last year.
For those unaware, this deal was expected to be the largest ever in the chip industry and would have had Nvidia acquire the company behind ARM’s technology that powers most smartphones across the globe. While companies like MediaTek and others supported the acquisition, others including Qualcomm and Microsoft had objected to the purchase. The report further added that SoftBank will be receiving a fee of up to 1.25 billion US Dollars despite the deal collapsing and is now planning on putting up Arm on an initial public offering.
This will reportedly take place before the end of this year as per one of the people close to the matter. SoftBank might now list Arm in New York as Nvidia reportedly abandoned this deal earlier this week on Monday. This is still an unconfirmed report so take it with a pinch of salt for now, and stay tuned for more updates.

Several reports have claimed that Motorola will be launching the Motorola Edge 30 Pro in India and Europe this month. A fresh teaser released by the Lenovo-owned brand confirms that a new Edge-series phone will be launching on Feb. 24 in India. It appears that the company could be teasing the arrival of the Edge 30 Pro flagship phone.
Reports have revealed that the Motorola Edge 30 Pro will be a rebranded version of the Moto Edge X30 that debuted as the world’s first Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 phone back in December 2021. The leaked renders of the Edge 30 Pro have revealed that it will look exactly like the X30. However, there is a possibility that the Edge 30 Pro could be equipped with an in-screen fingerprint scanner instead of a side-facing one, which is available on the X30.
Motorola Edge 30 Pro specifications (expected)
The Motorola Edge 30 Pro may come with a 6.7-inch OLED display with a punch-hole design. It may offer an FHD+ resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and a 576Hz touch sampling rate.

The device is likely to come preinstalled with Android 12 OS and MyUI. At present, there is no information available on its pricing. It is likely to arrive in black and white color options.
REDMAGIC announced the REDMAGIC 6 and REDMAGIC 6 Pro gaming smartphones in March 2021. The REDMAGIC 6R was made official in May 2021 as a budget-friendly gaming flagship phone. Hence, it appears that the REDMAGIC 7 lineup will include at least three models such as REDMAGIC 7, REDMAGIC 7 Pro, and REDMAGIC 7R. Today, the Chinese manufacturer confirmed that it will be holding an unveiling event at 3 PM (local time) on Feb. 17 to announce the REDMAGIC 7 series.
It can be said based on recent reports that the upcoming launch event may see the arrival of two models: REDMAGIC 7 and REDMAGIC 7 Pro. These devices have reportedly appeared respective model numbers of NX679J and NX709J at Chinese certification platforms. The 3C certification of these models has revealed that REDMAGIC 7 and 7 Pro may debut as the world’s first smartphones with support for 165W fast charging. As far as the REDMAGIC 7R is concerned, the company may announce it a few weeks later.
REDMAGIC 7 specifications (rumored)
The REDMAGIC 7’s TENAA listing has revealed that it has a 6.8-inch OLED FHD+ display that may support up to 165Hz refresh rate. The screen is likely to be integrated with a fingerprint scanner. It will come preinstalled with Android 12 OS and the latest version of Red Magic UI.
REDMAGIC 7
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 will be present under the hood of the REDMAGIC 7. It may come with up to 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 3.1 storage. The typical value of its battery could be around 4,500mAh. The rear side of the device has a 64-megapixel triple camera unit.

Apple last updated its iPhone SE smartphone in 2020 and keeping the tradition of refreshing the device every alternate year, the Cupertino-based technology giant is now gearing up to launch an updated iPhone SE this year.
There have been several leaks related to the upcoming budget iPhone from Apple, including reports about the phone’s arrival in spring this year. Now, a new report claims that the launch could happen sooner than expected.
Apple iPhone SE (2020)
A new report coming from Mark Gurman of Bloomberg claims that Apple could be hosting its first launch event of the year on 8th March and at that event, the new iPhone SE 2022 will also get launched. Earlier, there were reports indicating that the device could go official sometime around April or May.
If the latest report is to be believed, then along with the iPhone SE with 5G support, the company will launch three more products at the same event. The Apple iPad Air is also expected to get a refresh. There’s also a possibility that Apple could announce new entry-level MacBook devices powered by M2 chipset or the new 27-inch iMac.
As for the iPhone SE with 5G support coming next month, the device is expected to come with the same design as the currently available model but will arrive with a better set of specifications. It will look like an iPhone 8 but will feature upgrades in terms of internals.
It will come with a 4.7-inch Retina HD LCD display and will also feature a Home button with a fingerprint sensor embedded. It is likely to be the last Apple smartphone to come packed with an LCD display panel and a home button.
The device is also said to be powered by the Apple A15 processor along with 3GB of RAM while there could also be a Plus variant that will pack 4GB of RAM. The chipset also brings support for 5G connectivity to the phone. There will still be a 12-megapixel single camera sensor on the back with improved photography features.
The upcoming flagship smartphones and tablets from Samsung have been subjected to a lot of leaks and with the launch event just days away, there’s a new leak related to the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab S8.
The official press release of the Galaxy Tab S8 series has been leaked by well-known tipster Evan Blass ahead of the official launch on 9th February. It basically confirms what the leaks have revealed so far in terms of features and specifications.
It has been confirmed that Samsung will launch three models this time, including a larger Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra. All the models will come powered by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset.
As for the memory, the devices will start with 8GB of RAM and reach up to 16GB RAM while the storage option will start from 128GB and go up to 512GB. There will also be a microSD card slot for expanding storage up to 1TB.

Foxconn Group, the company known for being a contract manufacturer for Apple, is rapidly trying to increase its footprints and has already announced its plans for entering the rapidly growing electric vehicles market.
The National Petroleum Corporation of Thailand (PTT) has announced that its electric vehicles factory in the country, which is a joint venture with the Foxconn Group, will start mass production in the first quarter of 2024.
If the reports are to be believed, then both these companies are planning to invest around $1 billion in setting up this new factory in Thailand. The National Petroleum Corporation of Thailand estimates annual production of about 50,000 vehicles initially which will later be expanded to a capacity of about 150,000 vehicles.
It’s noteworthy that Foxconn isn’t limiting the electric vehicles production business to Thailand but it is spreading it across regions. Just a few days ago, the company announced that it is partnering with the Indonesian Investment Ministry along with other firms for the development of electric vehicles in the region.
Prior to that, the Taiwanese company had also signed an agreement to acquire its first electric vehicle manufacturing plant in North America. It is a part of $280 million in deals with U.S. electric vehicle startup Lordstown Motors that also include a share purchase. It is also considering setting up electric vehicle plants in India, Europe, and either North or South America by the year 2024.
A few months ago, Foxconn unveiled three prototype EV models that the company aims to release in commercial quantities sometime this year. The three new prototypes are a culmination of Foxconn’s partnership with Taiwan’s Yulon Motors.
Huawei is finally back in the global market with two flagships, no matter that it is not able to use 5G components or put Google Mobile Services into its devices. The Chinese giant came up with two handsets from the same series: the Huawei P50 Pocket and the Huawei P50 Pro. The first is a foldable phone with a clamshell form factor just like the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3, while the latter is a traditional top-tier flagship. Unfortunately, both of these devices lack the 5G connectivity and Google Mobile Sevices, but for the rest, they have nothing to envy if compared to other flagships. In this comparison, you will find the differences between their specifications.

Design
The Huawei P50 Pocket is one of the few foldable phones in the market and it wins the design comparison just for this reason. But besides being a foldable phone, this is also a very beautiful device. Its circular external display looks gorgeous just like its materials. Being a clamshell phone, it is able to fold in half and become extremely compact. Last but not least, it is very thin while unfolded: its thickness is just 7.2 mm. The Huawei P50 Pro is a beautiful phone as well, but it is a traditional smartphone with a glass back and an aluminum frame. However, unlike its internal rival, it is waterproof and dustproof with the IP68 certification.
Display
The technical specifications of the displays found on the Huawei P50 Pocket and the P50 Pro are more or less the same. They are OLED panels with one billion colors, a Full HD+ resolution, and a 120 Hz refresh rate. They are not the best displays in the market, but they definitely belong to the high-end segment. The Huawei P50 Pocket is more interesting because it has a foldable display with a 21:9 aspect ratio. As already mentioned, it is able to reduce its dimensions by folding and, while the phone is folded, you can use a small external display to check notifications and shoot selfies with the rear cameras.
Specs & Software
The Huawei P50 Pocket is powered by the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform: one of the two best Qualcomm chipsets of 2021, providing flagship specifications. Despite being a flagship chipset, it lacks the 5G support due to the U.S. ban restrictions, but it is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of internal storage. You can get exactly the same hardware department with the Huawei P50 Pro, but in some markets, this phone is powered by the proprietary Kirin 9000 chipsets. Even the software is the same on both the phones: HarmonyOS 2 in China and EMUI 12 without Google Mobile Services in the global market.
Camera
The Huawei P50 Pro is the best camera phone without any doubt: it is not only better than the Huawei P50 Pocket, but it is also better than almost every phone on the shelves right now. It has a 50 MP main camera with OIS and laser autofocus, a 64 MP periscope sensor with 3.5x optical zoom, a 13 MP ultrawide camera, and a 40 MP monochromatic sensor co-developed with Leica. There is no way for the P50 Pocket to compete with its 40 MP main camera, 13 MP ultrawide sensor, and 32 MP lens, but it allows shooting selfies with the rear cameras thanks to an external display.
The Huawei P50 Pro is able to provide longer battery life thanks to a bigger 4300 mAh battery. It even features wireless charging, unlike the P50 Pocket. Last but not least, the fast charging technology is more powerful as it is rated at 66W.
Price
The Huawei P50 Pro has a listing price of €1200/$1372 in the global market, while you need €1300/$1487 to grab a unit of the P50 Pocket. If we only look at the technical specifications, the Huawei P50 Pro is a better phone due to its superior cameras, bigger battery, waterproof body, and wireless charging. But the P50 Pocket is a foldable phone and for those who love innovative and compact devices, it may be a better choice.

Oppo Reno7 Pro Specifications
The Reno7 Pro comes in a 6.5-inch FHD+ AMOLED display. It is a flat-screen panel that doubles up as an in-display fingerprint scanner. The screen has a 90Hz refresh rate. It comes with a 32MP Sony IMX709 selfie snapper and a 50MP IMX766 + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro + a color temperature quad-rear camera system.

Chinese fans of power vehicles in the class of the Hummer H1 will soon be serenaded with the Dongfeng Warrior M18 electric vehicle with 1,070 HP power capacity. The Warrior M18 electric vehicle is touted as China’s EV version of the Hummer EV and it is the electric version of the Dongfeng Warrior M50.
Dongfeng Warrior M50 uses Diesel
Dongfeng had done a great job of reinventing the original AM General vehicle with both civilian and military applications well factored into the designs. The Dongfeng Humvees bear a very striking resemblance to its more popular Hummer H1 model, The diesel-powered Dongfeng Warrior M50 has a 200hp engine, but the proposed electric version of the Humvee will pack a monster 1,070hp power. Reports monitored in China indicate that Dongfeng will equip the car with electric motors that could deliver up to 800kW (1,070hp) with a possible top acceleration from 0-100km/h within 5 seconds, and a 500km range for the vehicle. This could translate to up to 26kWh/ 100km energy consumption.
The Warrior M18 EV could weigh up to 3.1 tons, which will be a significant reduction from the diesel-powered version which weighs up to 3.5 tons. If indeed the sources are accurate, a significantly lighter EV version to its internal combustion version will be a massive feat. Dongfeng will manufacture the Warrior M18 in a brand new factory currently under construction and it is expected to be priced cheaper than comparable electric trucks available in the global market, especially in the US.
Dongfeng Warrior M50
There is no mention of the possibility of bi-directional power for homes coming from the huge electric motor of the Warrior M18. It is also unlikely that the Dongfeng M18 could be exported outside China when it is released, with massive demand for such monster EV machines within the mainland. There are no clear indications yet at this time about the pricing and release date for the Dongfeng Warrior M18.
Last week, a render leak revealed many details about the upcoming OPPO flagship dubbed the Find X5 Pro. And now, the renders and specs of the vanilla Find X5 have also surfaced giving us a detailed look at its design and features.

Stylistically, Find X5 is almost the same as the Find X5 Pro featuring a screen with curved edges with a punch-hole cutout placed on the top left for the selfie camera. The power button appears to be located on the right side while the volume rocker is present on the left.
Even the unorthodox-shaped camera is also the same as the Pro variant but it features a minute change. The Find X5 has a thin border on the outside of the camera island which is not present in the Find X5 Pro.
The German publication WinFuture states that, unlike the Find X5 Pro, the vanilla variant will feature a Snapdragon 888 SoC and boot ColorOS 12.1 out of the box. It will only be offered in one memory configuration in European markets, being 8GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256 GB UFS 3.1 storage.
The device will feature a 6.55-inch 2400 x 1080p AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and Corning Gorilla Glass 7 protection.
The triple-camera on the device will be identical to the Pro model and will use two 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 sensors to work as a primary camera and an ultra-wide one. Both of these camera units will feature optical image stabilization. The third cutout will house a 13-megapixel telephoto lens capable of 5x hybrid zoom and 20x digital zoom. The front camera will have a 32-megapixel Sony IMX615 sensor.
The cameras will come with Hasselblad tuning and will use the newly developed MariSilicon X Imaging NPU for image processing and AI-based applications and enhancements.
OPPO will offer a 4800mAh battery with 80W fast charging support and wireless charging capabilities. For connectivity, it will have 5G, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and NFC. The dust and water resistance on the vanilla X5 is not on par with the Find X5 Pro’s IP68 as it only offers IP54 dust and water resistance.
The pricing of the device is hinted to be around 1000 Euros for the European markets but it is too soon to say for certain so stay tuned for more updates.
Oppo is expected to launch the Find X5 series soon in the market. The series will have the vanilla X5, X5 Pro, and X5 Lite. Ahead of the series’ launch, there have been multiple leaks and certifications. Now, Winfuture has shared fresh renders and detailed the specs sheet of the Oppo Find X5 Lite.
Previously, a tipster Sudhanshu Ambhorerevealed that the Oppo Find X5 Lite will be a rebranded version of the Oppo Reno7 5G. Now, the renders from the German publication confirm exactly the same. No doubt will indeed be a rebadged model.
Since it will be a rebadged model, the specs will be the same as the Reno7 5G. As per the specs sheet shared by the publication, the Oppo Find X5 Lite will sport a 6.43-inch AMOLED display with an FHD+(2400 x 1080 pixels) resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. It will have a Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

The smartphone will come equipped with a triple camera system. It will feature a 64MP main lens with an f/1.7 aperture, an 8MP ultra-wide sensor with a 118.9-degree FOV, and lastly a 2MP macro lens. Upfront, there will be a 32MP Sony IMX615 selfie snapper.
Under the hood, it will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 900 octa-core SoC. It will have 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The device will have dual-SIM support and pack a 4,500mAh battery. It will be supported by a 65W fast charging technology. As for security, it will have an under-display fingerprint scanner. Lastly, the device will run on ColorOS 12 based on Android 12.
Last month, the Realme Narzo 50A Prime moniker was spotted on the Realme India website hinting towards an imminent launch. And now, a tipster has hinted at some of the specs that the phone will likely carry.
According to leakster Mukul Sharma, the Narzo 50A Prime will feature a 4890mAh battery which will likely be marketed as a 5000mAh battery and will support 18W fast charging. Considering the 6000mAh battery on the Realme Narzo 50A, the Prime variant is bringing a considerably smaller battery than its non-Prime sibling. No further specifications of the device have leaked yet so it remains to be seen if the Narzo 50A Prime will offer improvements in other departments.
