The world is increasingly gravitating toward a green society with efficient and environmentally sustainable energy solutions. The transformation from combustible engines to electric vehicles has been astonishing and fast in some countries. Traditional carmakers are reinventing their manufacturing choices with targets for ultimately exiting the gas-powered engines for all-electrics as early as the turn of the next decade. Mercedes Benz is renowned for its luxury lineup of fast and efficient vehicles. It is now making steady progress in transiting to a full EV manufacturer by 2030. There are several models under development, but the company has teased with the super-efficient VISION EQXX all-electric vehicle which is billed for launch on January 3.
The Mercedes Benz VISION EQXX will come with some solid features and great efficiency across several segments. It offers a driving range of 1,000 km on a single charge, which is as high as it can get presently. The initial range specification for the VISION EQXX when it was first announced last year was 1,200km. In the opinion of Marcus Schafer, Mercedes Benz COO, the company is making strong progress in its strategic ambition to lead in Electric Drive. Schafer says the VISION EQXX is set to become the most efficient EV ever built to date.
As Mercedes Benz continues to pursue its electrification goals, it hopes to continue to improve the efficiency of its EV offerings for it to have a competitive edge in a fast-growing market. The battery cells that will power the batteries, according to the company, will offer a higher energy density than what obtains presently. Although still a concept vehicle,, the Mercedes Benz VISION EQXX could provide hints on how the company’s EV lineup may look.
Earlier this month, Samsung’s ‘Edge panel’-like feature made its way to MIUI. The Chinese tech giant called it ‘Smart toolbox’. The feature is still under testing but its name has already been changed within a few days.
Xiaomi recently introduced ‘Smart toolbox’ in the MIUI weekly beta channel. The feature is nothing but a clone of ‘Edge panel’ found in Samsung smartphones and tablets. It is also offered by other OEMs.
For some reason, Xiaomi took more time to implement this feature. Above all, the company gave it an unclear name. Thankfully, the firm has now fixed the name.
According to MIUI SYSTEM UPDATES Telegram channel, ‘Smart toolbox’ has been now renamed ‘Sidebar’. The new name comes via an update to the MIUI Security app, which bumps up the version to V5.8.1-211123.
The official changelog mentions the renaming of the said feature, fixing known bugs, and improving overall performance. Since there’s no indication of any addition, we don’t expect them either.
Like most MIUI options, we expect ‘Sidebar’ to get better with inputs from users in the coming days. Currently, it can be accessed always, while playing games, or while playing videos. It is only capable of showing pinned applications and some tools.
We first heard about Xiaomi Ingres at the end of August. A month later in September, certain details about the phone emerged. Two months from that, a report now says that this handset will be sold under three names worldwide.
Redmi K40 Pro
According to a report by Xiaomiui, the upcoming Xiaomi Ingres bears shortened model number L11. This model number was recently tipped to belong to the Redmi K50 series.
The smartphone has now appeared in the IMEI database with three different model numbers confirming multiple regional variants and brandings. At present, it has the following model numbers.
Xiaomi Ingres (L11) Model Numbers
22011211C – China
22011211G – Global
22011211I – India
The listings say that in China, the device will be released under the Redmi brand. Whereas, in India, it will sport Xiaomi branding. Elsewhere, it will be a POCO smartphone.
Previous findings from MIUI code have revealed that the handset will be powered by the yet-to-be-announced Qualcomm SM8450 (Snapdragon 8 Gen 1). Hence, Xiaomiui suggests that this phone could be called Redmi K50 Pro in China, Xiaomi 12X Pro in India, and POCO F4 Pro in other parts of the world.
Further, the device is said to sport a triple rear camera setup consisting of a 64MP OmniVision OV64B primary sensor, an ultrawide unit, and a macro snapper. It is expected to feature a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, however, a reliable tipster Digital Chat Station hinted at an in-display fingerprint sensor not long ago.
As far as the launch timeline is concerned, the smartphone is anticipated to debut in January 2022, as per the first four digits of its model numbers. Lastly, although the MIUI development for the handset began in August 2021, there’s a chance it might hit the market with MIUI 13 based on Android 12.
Chinese phone maker Vivo recently launched the Vivo Y76 smartphone in Malaysia with specs like Dimensity 700 SoC and 50MP triple cameras. Now, the company is gearing to launch another phone soon as a phone dubbed Vivo Y32 has appeared on TENAA certification.
The Vivo Y32 carries the model number V2158A and sports a Vivo Y33s-like design. For those who are unaware, the Vivo Y33s was launched last month and it seems that Y32 will be its sibling with a similar design footprint. The smartphone features a water-drop notch display and has a triple rear camera setup.
It seems that the Vivo Y32 will be just another budget offering with similar specs to the Vivo Y33s for different markets. Recently, the phone passed China’s 3C certification revealing an 18W fast charging support. It also affirms that the phone could be a budget 4G offering for the Chinese market.
As of now, there’s little information about the phone, but we expect the device to pass more certifications soon followed by a launch this year.
Vivo Y33s Specifications
The Vivo Y33s comes with a 6.58-inch water-drop notch display with a Full-HD+ resolution. It has an LCD panel with a 60Hz refresh rate. Upfront, it features a 16MP single-camera setup. At the rear, it has a 50MP + 2MP + 2MP triple camera system.
Under the hood, it comes powered by the MediaTek Helio G80 SoC paired with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage. It packs a 5,000mAh battery with support got 18W fast charging technology. The smartphone boots on Android 11 out of the box and has FunchTouch OS 11.1 on top of it. As for ports, it has a USB Type-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy A13 5G soon as it has already passed multiple certifications. Now, news broke that the 4G variant of the same device may also launch soon as the company has started the initial production for the phone. In fact, a piece of news touts that Samsung has started the production for the Samsung Galaxy A13 4G in India itself.
According to 91Mobiles, Samsung has begun the production of the 4G units in its Greater Noida factory in India. Rumors are rife that the phone will come with a plastic body featuring a glossy finish. Unlike the upcoming 5G version, the 4G version will have a quadruple camera system placed vertically at the back.
Samsung Galaxy A13 5G
The smartphone will come with a USB Type-C port for charging, which hints for a fast charging support on the phone. And, it will have a 3.5mm headphone jack and a speaker grille at the bottom. It will have the power button and the volume rocker on the right spine.
Apart from this, there’s no other information about the device but since the device has made it to the leaks, we expect the renders of the 4G version to appear soon.
Samsung Galaxy A13 5G Specifications(Expected)
In related news, the Samsung Galaxy A13 5G is slated to launch soon in select markets. Recently the smartphone passed multiple certifications andit was learned that it will be come powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 700 SoC. It will be pairedwith a 4GB or 6GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of onboard storage.
The device is expected to feature a 6.48-inch LCD display with an FHD+ resolution. It will come equipped with a triple camera system with a 50MP primary lens, a 5MP ultra-wide sensor, and a 2MP depth sensing lens. Under the roof, it will house a 5,000mAh battery with a support for 25W fast charging technology.
In the last few days, we found out that there is an old phone which is still popular among Gizmochina’s readers: the Vivo V15. Despite this handset making its debut almost three years ago, there are a lot of people still interested in this device for various reasons. But does it still make sense to buy such a phone in 2021 or it is passed and you should opt for something more recent? In order to answer this question, we decided to compare the Vivo V15 with one of the most recent phones sold in the same price range: the Vivo Y50t. This handset hitten the shelves earlier this month with midrange specifications and no 5G in order to provide a very affordable price. Here is a comparison between the specifications of the Vivo V15 and the Vivo Y50t.
Triple 48 + 8 + 5 MP, f/1.8 + f/2.2 + f/2.4
32 MP f/2.0 front camera
Triple 48 + 2 + 2 MP, f/1.8 + f/2.4 + f/2.4
8 MP f/2.0 front camera

Design
The design of the Vivo V15 looks very suggestive for two main reasons: the first is the fact that it provides a full-screen experience, without a notch and without any hole, thanks to the presence of a motorized pop-up camera. The second is the very high screen to body ratio, with very narrow bezels around the display. This phone is entirely built of plastic with the exception of the front glass, but it still looks premium. Further, its display is protected by Gorilla Glass 5. The design of the Vivo Y50t may look more modern on the rear side due to the camera module, but the front panel is less impressive. That is why I would go for the Vivo V15.
Display
On the paper, the displays of the Vivo V15 and the Vivo Y50t have the same main specifications, with the exception of the Gorilla Glass 5 protection which is present only on the V15 and the punch hole of the Vivo Y50t. They are IPS LCD panels with a diagonal of 6.53 inches and a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, and they have a standard refresh rate. We are talking about average displays in the mid/low-end segment, nothing special but nothing disappointing. The Vivo V15 has a rear-mounted fingerprint reader, while the fingerprint scanner of the Vivo Y50t is side-mounted.
Hardware/Software
There is a big difference between the hardware of these two handsets. The Vivo V15 is powered by the MediaTek Helio P70 chipset, while the Vivo Y50t has the Snapdragon 720G. The Snapdragon 720G is much more powerful than the Helio P70 and it is built with an 8 nm production process, which means the energy consumption is lower. Further, the Vivo Y50t has 8 GB of RAM, while the Vivo V15 stops at 6 GB. Last but not least, the internal storage of the Vivo Y50t is UFS 2.1, while the Vivo V15 has an eMMC storage. Even when it comes to the software the Vivo Y50t is more recommended: it ships with Android 10 and OriginOS out of the box, while the Vivo V15 is still based on Android 9 Pie.
Camera
If you need a superior rear camera, then you should go for the Vivo Y50t: it has a better 48 MP main sensor. On the other hand, the Vivo V15 has better secondary sensors: an 8 MP ultrawide camera and a 5 MP depth sensor, while the Vivo V15 provides two useless 2 MP cameras for macros and depth. Another advantage of the Vivo V15 is its amazing 32 MP front camera, while the Y50t has a low-end 8 MP snapper.
Battery
The Vivo Y50t is equipped with a bigger 4500 mAh battery which, alongside the 8 nm processor providing a lower energy consumption, allows for longer battery life.
Vivo V15 vs Vivo Y50t: Price
Despite it being released in 2019, the Vivo V15 is still a great phone nowadays. Its original price was €310/$351, but now the street prices are a lot more affordable and close to the Vivo Y50t selling for about €190/$215. The Vivo Y50t wins the comparison because of its better chipset, bigger battery, updated software, but the Vivo V15 is a better phone for selfies and includes an ultrawide camera and a better design among its pros.
Apple iPhones and other products are very popular all over the world even in China. This is mostly due to their quality – both hardware and software. They are also seen as status symbols perhaps due to their high prices. But the US company started experiencing a dwindling fortune in China as a result of the rise of indigenous firms like Xiaomi, OPPO, Vivo, and Huawei who tend to offer flagship smartphones with almost the same build and camera quality as iPhones at half the price of Apple’s flagship smartphones.
However, the shift to designs that are more appealing than the large bezel styles of previous iPhones seemed to have engineered a resurgence as the brand has seen a steady rise in its fortunes since the iPhone X to date. The rise culminated in Apple rating among the top 4 brands in China as of September 2021.
A report by market research firm Counterpoint Research has now revealed that Apple threw a surprise by edging out Vivo to emerge as the number one smartphone vendor in China! The reach firm noted that this is the first time since December 2015 Apple was emerging as the largest smartphone vendor in China.
The feat is no doubt made possible by the exploits of the iPhone 13 series that got released not too long ago. The brand’s sales grew 46% over the figure for September. This is the highest growth recorded in October 2021 by any vendor in China. In contrast, the entire Chinese smartphone market grew by just 2% MoM during the period. Also, the fall of Huawei as a result of the US trade ban contributed to Apple’s growth. Huawei’s flagship smartphones have often heated Apple’s in terms of the camera prowess on DXOMark. The smartphones also offer the same build quality and amazing features as those on the iPhones but for a lesser price offering.

BBK subsidiary Vivo is expected to launch the S12 series in China next month. The series is comprised of the Vivo S12 and S12 Pro. The two upcoming Vivo phones were recently certified by TENAA and 3C in China bearing the model numbers V2162A and V2163A. A tipster has now released a couple of images of the S12 on Twitter, showing the front and rear designs.
Although the image is blurry, we can see that the Vivo S12 will have a similar front design as the S12 Pro. What we can’t say for sure is if there will be a curved edge display on the side of the display screen. We already know, from leaks, that the S12 Pro will have a curved edge display. The S12 may likely have the same curved-edge display considering that both models have the same notch design at the top of the display.
Vivo S12 First Look Launching Next Month in China.
The rear aspect of the vanilla S12 is shown to hold a triple camera setup aligned vertically at the top left corner of the rear panel. The camera specification is not known but the S12 Pro is expected to have a 50-megapixel main camera. There may likely be some variation in the camera setup on the S12.
In addition, the Pro variant is expected to come in three color variants while the S12 will be available in a single color. The leaked image is that of a gold color model.
Vivo is yet to officially reveal the launch itinerary of the S12 series but we expect the launch schedule to be revealed soon.

Smartwatches have become a necessity not only for people who want to lead an active lifestyle, but also for those who want to keep an eye on their health at all times. Modern smartwatches and smart bands have evolved from being fitness-centric devices to overall health and well-being-focused accessories. They come with a number of useful and life-saving features like 24 x 7 heart rate monitoring, sleep monitoring, blood oxygen monitor, and even fall detection. Haven’t we heard enough stories about how the Apple Watch has saved the lives of people in need of help.
If you are looking for a smartwatch to get from any of the top brands, this is a perfect time. Most smartwatches from Apple, Fitbit, and Garmin are on sale right now, with Fitbit watches getting the maximum discount.
So let’s take a look at the Best Smartwatch Deals for Black Friday 2021.
Best Apple Watch Deals for Black Friday 2021
Apple Watch 7 Series Deals
The Apple Watch 7 series is the latest smartwatch lineup from the Cupertino giant. So there aren’t any huge discounts on offer on these watches.
If you are looking for the 45mm model, the GPS model gets a $10 discount ($419) right now) but the GPS+ Cellular hasn’t got any big discounts right now.
Apple Watch SE Deals
The Apple Watch SE is the model to get right now, with both 41mm and 44mm sizes getting a solid $60 OFF from its retail prices! Unfortunately, the GPS+ Cellular models haven’t got any good discounts right now.
You might be tempted to get the Series 3 for $220 but honestly, getting the SE instead makes a lot more sense right now.
Best Fitbit Watch Deals for Black Friday 2021
Fitbit is known for its wide range of smartwatches and fitness bands and like we mentioned above, most of its products are heavily discounted this week.
Fitbit Sense
The Fitbit Sense is the brand’s most feature-packed smartwatch, and it comes with practically every health-centric feature you could wish for. This includes features like Stress Management with EDA sensor, Heart Rhythm assessment with ECG app, Skin temperature tracking, Blood Oxygen SpO2 monitoring, and notifications for abnormal heart rate not usually found on cheaper watches. This is in addition to the usual health centric features like sleep tracking, step tracking etc.
Usually retailing for $300, the Fitbit Sense is down to its lowest ever price of $199right now. If you were looking for a smartwatch that could do it all without spending too much on something like an Apple Watch, this is the watch to get.
Fitbit Versa 3
The Fitbit Versa 3 is the slightly watered down version of the Fitbit Sense. But for most consumers, the Versa 3 packs enough features making it a really good value for money. This watch lacks a couple of premium features like stress management, skin temperature, and heart rhythm assessment, but in return offers a slightly better battery life and a cheaper price tag.
You can get the Fitbit Versa 3 for just $179.99,down from the usual $229 price tag. I know, this brings it closer to the Fitbit Sense, so most of you might consider the Sense a better value at its current $199 price.
Honestly, right now, the Sense is a better buy than the Versa 3. But if you really want something cheaper, why not get the Versa 2 which is down to just $119, the lowest price we’ve seen for this smartwatch yet. It lacks fast charging but at this discounted price, you can’t go wrong with the Versa 2.
Fitbit Charge 5
If you don’t fancy a large smartwatch on your wrist, then the Charge 5 is an excellent option. This smartband comes with a touchscreen color display with all the essential health-centric features like blood oxygen SpO2 tracking, skin temperature and heart rate variability tracking, built-in GPS to track running pace and distance, along with 6-months of Fitbit Premium membership too.
If you want something more basic, you can get the Fitbit Luxe which is down to $99 from the usual $150. While you do get some premium Fitbit features like stress management and 24×7 heart rate monitoring, it lacks GPS and blood oxygen monitoring (said to be rolled out later). But for a smartband it has a very crisp color display and looks good on your wrist.
Garmin Smartwatches have also got pretty decent discounts for Black Friday 2021.
Garmin Fenix 6 Series Deals
Fenix is the brand’s most premium smartwatch lineup, marrying the concept of outdoor watches with a premium design. Usually, Fenix watches are very expensive, but at this week’s Black Friday sale, the Fenix 6 Pro gets a whopping $200 price cut. It’s down to just $449 for a limited time.
Along with the usual fitness tracking features like HR sensor, blood oxygen monitor, exercise tracking, the Fenix 6 Pro brings in outdoor centric features like preloaded topo maps, ski maps for over 2,000 worldwide ski resorts, multiple global navigation satellite system (GPS, GLONASS and Galileo) support and built-in sensors for 3-axis compass, gyroscope and barometric altimeter.
The biggest difference between the Fenix 6 Pro and the regular 6 and 6S is the presence of music, maps and WiFi, which the standard 6 /6S variant lacks.
Considering the solid price cut on the 6 Pro, it’s actually not a bad idea to shell out a few more bucks and get the premium Fenix 6 Pro right now instead of the 6.
This is the ideal smartwatch for runners with advanced running centric analytics like cadence, stride length, ground contact time and balance, vertical oscillation to give you a clear view of how your body is performing during your runs.
Garmin Vivoactive 4
Garmin’s Vivoactive series is ideal for those who lead an active lifestyle and need regular health-centric data. And the Vivoactive 4 brings the ability to play music, track your workouts, and monitor regular fitness centric data like respiration, menstrual cycle, stress, sleep, estimated heart, hydration and more.
The Venu features a round AMOLED display with Wi-Fi, more outdoor-centric sensors like altimeters, and can even play offline music. For $199, it offers great value for money.
The Venu Sq is a lite version featuring a square LCD display having most fitness-centric features as the Venu but lacks Wi-Fi and altimeter, and you can only control music via your smartphone. Naturally, the Sq also features a longer battery life than the Venu. And at $129, its a solid bargain.
So these were the best smartwatch deals for Black Friday 2021 on Apple, Fitbit, and Garming watches.

Vivo announced its first smartwatch aptly named Vivo Watch in September last year. The watch is about to get a successor – the Vivo Watch 2. Before now, the Watch2 had appeared on certification websites and in leaks. A leaked picture showing three renders of the second-generation Vivo smartwatch has now appeared online pointing at an imminent launch.
The renders not only give us an idea of the design, but they also show some of the features expected onboard the smartwatch. Some of the notable features include heart rate monitoring, in-built GPS, and a step counter. The renders also show the device will come with support for voice calls. This aligns with previous rumors that tip the wearable device to come with e-SIM support.
In terms of the design, the Vivo Watch 2 will adopt the same circular design as the predecessor. The watch also comes with the options of leather and silicone straps. The watch is also said to come with a 501mAh battery which is twice the size of the first-gen Vivo Watch. This means it will have better endurance.
There is no word yet on the launch. We expect other details to emerge as time goes on.

Niantic has collaborated with financial company Fold to create an augmented reality game called Fold AR. The game allows users to earn bitcoin and in-app benefits by exploring their physical surroundings. It is currently undergoing testing and the Fold AR team will allow a small fraction of users to test the game for a limited time daily.
Pokémon Go is an obvious inspiration for the game, but Fold’s press release has gone a step further by calling it a part of the metaverse. The difference between the two games lies in the prize – while Pokémon Go revolves around capturing cute monsters, Fold AR is based mostly on finding cubes and tapping them to reveal a prize.
And it’s the prizes bit that makes the game special, as some of them are in the form of Bitcoin in the denomination of Satoshis. Satoshis is currently a very small unit worth 1/20th of a penny. The reward also contains power-ups for the Fold app.
There’s another difference, however, concerning the world it’s set in. Fold AR doesn’t virtual locations that correspond to real-world places. Instead, the game spawns a block between 1 and 50 feet away from the player every 10 minutes, corresponding to the rate of real Bitcoin mining.
The Fold AR team hopes to add more features with time, even including one that lets players hide Bitcoins for friends to find as well as some form of NFT.
Fold CEO Will Reeves says that the goal of the game is to partly make a virtual currency feel real by creating an AR setting for it. The game is full of cryptocurrency-related memes and other related stuff, but it’s still supposed to appeal to both crypto-enthusiasts as well as regular players.
