For those unaware, the OnePlus 9RT will be launching in India under the name of OnePlus RT.

91mobiles, in collaboration with reliable tipster Mukul Sharma, has shared a screenshot of the Indian version of the Official OnePlus Care app, which shows the OnePlus 9RT listed in the app. The name is likely a placeholder and might later be replaced with the OnePlus RT moniker. This listing all but confirms the smartphone coming to the Indian market and is indicative of an imminent launch.

Moving on to the camera department, the rear module packs a 50MP primary + 16MP wide-angle + 2MP macro camera setup. Upfront, there’s a 16MP selfie shooter fitted within a left-aligned punch-hole. The device is powered by a 4,500mAh battery with support for 65W fast charging.

Yadea launches new low-cost KS3 e-scooter with front suspension, priced at $569

Electric scooter manufacturer Yadea has launched a new handy, lightweight, and low-cost e-scooter. The Yadea KS3 electric scooter is a clear departure from the heavier and more expensive e-scooters that the company had been producing before now. These include the Yadea KS5 and K35 Pro e-scooters.

The Yadea KS3 is a scaled-down version of the more expensive, powerful, and heavier Yadea e-scooters. It is designed for riders who need to carry it by hand when they reach their destination, hence no fear of lack of parking space and theft. It is a foldable scooter weighing just under 15kg with a carrying capacity of about 100kg. It can reach a top speed of 25km/h and has a 500W rear motor providing the needed power.

The Yadea KS3 e-scooter is priced at $569 and can be gotten via Amazon. The KS3 competes favorably with the e-scooters within its price range. It also boasts of some added features that will draw further attention to it. The Yadea KS3 has a front suspension which helps to smoothen the ride, especially in undulating and rough surfaces. The 8.5×2.4-inch tires do not need to be inflated and remove the possibility of having a flat tire. The tires have a minimum wear capacity of about 5,000km. With a stated range of 30km on a single charge, the tires could last more than 150 full charges spanning several years.

The front drum brake is also an innovative feature in the KS3. The drum brake is maintenance-free and is sealed to better protect it from contamination and damage from the road and the weather elements. The brake drums do not fade under wet conditions; likewise, the rear brake is durable and maintenance-free. The rear brake will charge the battery momentarily during braking while on a commute.

The Yadea KS3 is less expensive than its faster predecessors but is a great vehicle for those needing a handy e-scooter with impressive features for quick commutes.

Google had planned to ship Pixel 5 with Tensor SoC, Here’s why they didn’t

In a recent video, Youtuber Marques Brownlee has revealed that Google had plans to introduce their Tensor chips back in 2020 with the Pixel 5 but didn’t at the last moment.

Google Pixel 5

The smartphone community has always wondered why the Google Pixel 5 featured a Qualcomm 765G SoC, weaker than Pixel 4‘s Snapdragon 855. Well, we might have an answer for you. In a recent video discussing every Google phone, the famous Youtuber Marques Brownlee revealed that Google was working on Tensor for a long time and wanted to release it earlier.

“They were actually planning on Pixel 5 being the first phone with Tensor. But then with Covid and the supply chain issues and a bunch of things getting in the way, at the last second they kinda had to bail on that,” Brownlee claimed.

“But they still wanted to drop a new phone, so they just put a Snapdragon 765G in it, shipped it, called it a day, and kept putting their heads down for Pixel 6.”

Brownlee claimed that through his talks with people at Google, he learned that Google was planning to release the Pixel 5 with a Tensor chipset. But with the global pandemic going on, supply chain and many other issues arose, forcing Google to equip the phone with the midrange Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G SoC and wait out the release of their Tensor chip till next year.

So what would a Tensor-equipped Pixel 5 have looked like? For starters, the processor would’ve been a significant improvement over the Snapdragon 765G’s allowing for a smoother performance. We could expect around twice the performance in the GPU department thanks to the Mali-G76 GPU on the Tensor chip.

Alas, the Tensor-based Pixel 5 didn’t see the light of day, but on the other hand, it gave Google more time to mature and optimize the Tensor chip which they offer in the Pixel 6 lineup.

Samsung retakes top spot from Realme in Philippines smartphone market in Q3 2021: Report

A new report has just revealed that the Philippines smartphone market saw a 9 percent year on year decline in the third quarter of this year. But despite the overall market seeing a slight fall, Samsung managed to regain the top spot in the region.

Samsung

According to a Counterpoint Research report, the South Korean tech giant managed to overtake Realme to become number one in the country in Q3 2021. During this time, the company had a market share of 23 percent, while Realme followed close behind with a market share of 22 percent. Back in Q3 2020, the Chinese smartphone brand had a market share of 23 percent while Samsung accounted for just 15 percent of the market share.

The report added that the company managed to retake the lead thanks to the success of its mid range smartphone offerings. This includes the Galaxy A12 and Galaxy A21s, which were among the major contributors during this quarter. On the other hand, Realme continued to strengthen its presence in the e-commerce segment, while Vivo (17 percent), Oppo (15 percent), and Xiaomi (13 percent) took rounded up the top 5 spots.

Samsung Galaxy A12 with Exynos 850 and 5,000mAh battery launched in India

As per Research Analyst Tanvi Sharma, “Businesses tried to increase the pace of their digital efforts to keep up with the continued expansion of cashless payments and e-commerce. Smartphone brands offered heavy discounts and exclusive schemes in the 9.9 Super Brand Day Sale. Besides, consumers were seen rapidly moving towards 5G-enabled smartphones. E-commerce growth will continue and is expected to sustain a long-term adoption of online channels. Shopee and Lazada are among the top e-commerce platforms, grabbing most online sales.”

Samsung Galaxy Note series is now history and will never return, new report suggests

A new report now suggests that Samsung has decided to do away with the Galaxy Note series completely, halting its development altogether and deeming it history. The series has also been excluded from the 2022 annual production plan, and its design will be incorporated into the next iteration of the Galaxy S series. This is all being done to boost the sales of Samsung’s foldable phones (via ETNews).

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra featured
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra

News concerning the Samsung Galaxy Note series simply refuses to die out even though it’s been over a year since the last release. The chronicles commenced last year when reports began pouring in about Samsung killing off the Note lineup and letting it get consumed by the S series. However, it was found soon after that the rumors of the Galaxy Note’s demise had been greatly exaggerated, because a Samsung official confirmed that a new Galaxy Note device would be coming in 2021.

But it’s now nearly the end of 2021, and there’s still no sign of any Note series phone launching this year. The only flagship offering from Samsung in 2021 has been the S21 series, with the S21 Ultra from it even coming with stylus pen support.

Regardless, another Samsung official recently confirmed that the release date for a new Galaxy Note device has now been set for 2022. The news does feel a bit out of place considering that the upcoming Galaxy S22 Ultra device has already been touted to be a true successor to the Note 20 Ultra, complete with a boxy design and an S Pen slot.

Samsung

Putting things together, it’s almost as if Samsung itself can’t make up its mind about the Note series.

Still, Samsung’s faith in its Fold series is not misplaced at all. The company already managed to sell about 2.3 million foldables around the globe in the first half of 2021. This is not counting the very successful Galaxy Z Flip3 5G which was only released in H2 2021.

Doing away with the Note series should offer Samsung an increased production capacity for its foldables, particularly the Z Flip series – a series that the company plans to sell 13 million units of, next year.

And as for those missing the Galaxy Note series already, it will be heartwarming to know that it’s virtually only the ‘Note’ name that has been dropped. The series’ legacy will live on with the Galaxy S22 Ultra, which leaks suggest will be inheriting most of the features from the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, and perhaps even offer more.

Xiaomi 12 may feature Curved display & symmetrical Stereo Speakers: Tipster

Xiaomi is gearing up for the launch of its latest flagship handset, the Xiaomi 12. The device is set to launch next month, but prior to its release, a tipster has revealed some details regarding the upcoming smartphone.

Xiaomi 12 Ultra Leica

According to known Weibo tipster DigitalChatStation (Via SparrowNews), the Chinese tech giant’s next gen premium smartphone will feature a 50 megapixel primary camera that features OIS support along with an ultra wide angle lens and a macro sensor. Furthermore, he added that the curved display on either sides will be the standard on the entire Xiaomi 12 series. The tipster also claimed that the 12 series will arrive with a symmetrical stereo speaker design as well.

In other words, we can expect a dual stereo speaker system. The last generation’s Xiaomi 11 series also featured a dual speaker design, although, the stereo speakers had an asymmetrical design. Unfortunately, this is all the information shares on the Chinese microblogging website. But since it is still an unconfirmed report, we suggest you take it with a pinch of salt for now.

Xiaomi

As per previous reports, the company is working on a Xiaomi 12X model as well along with the base variant. While the 12X is expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC, the flagship model is set to be one of the first smartphones to feature the next gen Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 mobile platform. So stay tuned for more updates, as we will be covering any rumor or report leading up to the launch.

BGMI to bring parental control for minors via OTP authentication

Earlier today, Krafton introduced the ‘Game Responsibly’ initiative for BGMI, which will enable a level of parental control over the much-loved battle royale game via time limitations and OTP confirmation.

BGMI game responsibily

Ever since Krafton brought back PUBG mobile in the form of BGMI to India, the company had made a conscious effort to promote a healthy game-life balance when it came to its player base, especially minors (under 18 years of age). With that in mind, Krafton has introduced an upcoming feature that will allow parents to take control over the playtime as every player below the age of 18 will need to register a parent or guardian before beginning each session – upon which the parent/guardian will receive an OTP to authorize the session, or not. Granted permission, the player will be able to play the game for the next three hours.

With this update, BGMI will now have a plethora of features aimed towards a responsible game-life balance as well as parental control, namely-

  • A virtual world reminder that announces your arrival into a virtual world when you join a match lobby.
  • Censorship in the form of censored nudity, decreased levels of violence and bloodshed.
  • Playtime limitations for players below the age of 18 will limit them to play up to 3 hours per day.
  • Break reminders to ensure that playing times don’t go on for exceedingly long hours without a break.
  • Daily spending limits for players below the age of 18 that caps the amount the player can spend in-game per day to RS 7000 ($94).
  • OTP authentication to play the game in case of an underage player.

OPPO Reno7 series is here with slim and light builds, flagship-level light-up cameras

OPPO held a product launch event today for multiple products including the Reno7 series, new additions to the Enco earbuds lineup, and even a smart TV. But the star of the show was obviously the Reno7 series, which has seen much hype over the past week thanks to quite a few leaks and teasers. The suspense has now been put to rest with the launch, as all details about the OPPO Reno7, Reno7 Pro, and Reno7 SE are out in the open.

First and foremost, the OPPO Reno7 series brings a refreshed design but retains the overall boxy rectangular build that was first introduced to the series with the Reno6. However, the bezels this year have been reduced significantly, so much so that the Pro variant sports a screen-to-body ratio of 92.8%.

oppo reno 7 pro

The back panel of the series has seen upgrades too. An “aerospace-grade lithography technology” has been applied to the rear to create a fine grating texture and a meteor shower-like visual appearance.

And lastly, the Reno7 Pro comes with the much-talked-about notification light around the cameras, which quite frankly, has to be the best use of a protruding camera module. It lights up in a breathing manner for incoming calls, incoming messages, charging, and even for games.

This isn’t all the phones have to offer though, and we have listed all of their specs below.

OPPO Reno7 Pro

The OPPO Reno7 Pro is obviously the priciest among the bunch and is powered by MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity 1200-Max chip. It comes with an FHD+ 6.55-in OLED screen with a refresh rate of 90Hz. The battery of the device is sized 4500mAh which can be quickly filled up at 65W. The phone comes with a star-ring breathing light, measures 158.2 x 73.2 x 7.45mm, and weighs just 180g. To keep heat under control, there’s an ultra-dense graphite sheet paired with superconducting vacuum VC liquid cooling. The phone also features an X-axis linear motor and dual stereo speakers.

But perhaps the greatest highlight of the device are the cameras. A flagship-level 50MP f/1.8 Sony IMX766 sensor has been used for the primary lens which OPPO says has ‘omnidirectional focusing’. It is joined by 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro cameras.

On the front, the OPPO Reno7 Pro debuts the 32MP IMX709 sensor – a “super-sensitive cat-eye lens jointly developed with Sony.” This one comes with multiple advanced features and should offer better low-light performance while greatly reducing noise.

Following is its pricing:

  • 8GB+256GB – 3699 Yuan (~$579)
  • 12GB+256GB – 3999 Yuan (~$626)

OPPO Reno7

The OPPO Reno7 is powered by the Snapdragon 778G mobile platform and offers 8+128/8+256/12+256 RAM and storage variants. It has an FHD+ 6.43-in OLED screen with a 90Hz refresh rate. Its front camera uses the 32MP IMX709 (f/2.4, RGBW) sensor as well, while the back is made up of a 64MP main camera (f/1.7) + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro lens setup. The phone packs a 4500mAh battery, weighs 185g, and measures 156.8 x 72.1 x 7.59mm. Like the Pro, it also comes with advanced heat dissipation features.

Following is its pricing:

  • 8GB+128GB – 2699 Yuan (~$422)
  • 8GB+256GB – 2999 Yuan (~$469)
  • 12GB+256GB – 3299 Yuan (~$516)

OPPO Reno7 SE

The OPPO Reno7 SE is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 900 chip and uses a 90Hz 6.43-inch OLED screen. Its rear camera module comprises 48MP (IMX581) primary + 2MP macro + 2MP portrait sensors. The device measures 160.2 x 73.2 x 7.45mm and weighs 171g.

Following is its pricing:

  • 8GB+128GB – 2199 Yuan (~$344)
  • 8GB+256GB – 2399 Yuan (~$375)

The Reno7 series boots into ColorOS 12 based on Android 11. The three devices have only been launched in China as of now but a global release shouldn’t be too far off.

Due to a robust regulatory and incentive framework from both national and regional governments, there has been a boom in electric vehicles in India.

The e-scooters are priced at Rs. 68,000 ($913) for the D5, Rs. 73,000 ($980) for the D7, and Rs. 77,000 ($1,033) for the D14. The great-looking Darwin e-scooters were designed for the younger population with their impressive and sharp styling. The design is bound to draw the younger segment of the population to the three e-scooters and added to the fanfare, the bikes were unveiled by World Amateur Boxing Champion MC Mary Kom.Darwin D5

Some of the features of the new Darwin e-scooters for India include keyless entry, regenerative braking, USB mobile charging port, hazard switch, and an appealing overall look.

Darwin Group will continue to scale up its investments in India ranging from research and development to, production of green vehicles and strategic collaborations. The Darwin D5, D7, and D14 will compete with some very successful electric two-wheelers in India for a share of the huge market.

Oppo launches the Enco Free2i TWS, Enco M32 earphones, & Watch Free NFC in China

Oppo has just officially announced the Reno7 series in China earlier today (25th November 2021). Alongside the latest smartphones, the company even launched a bunch of new wearable products including the Enco Free 2i TWS earbuds, the Enco M32 wireless neckband earphones, and even the Watch Free NFC variant.

Enco Free2i

The Chinese smartphone maker has just launched two new hearable products. These true wireless earbuds feature an in ear design with a silicon tip. Furthermore, one of its highlighting features is its active noise cancelling up to 42dB. It even supports connection to two smartphones simultaneously.

It even arrives with various touch controls that even supports inputs like double tapping to click a picture, apart from the usual music controls.

Furthermore, it even supports dual smartphone switching as well along with IP55 dust and water resistance, and runs on Bluetooth 5.0.

Oppo

Watch Free NFC

Apart from the wireless earphones, Oppo had also announced a new smartwatch. Although, rather than being a completely new product, it is the NFC variant of the previously launched Watch Free smartwatch that was released back in September. As the name suggests, the primary addition to this smart wearable is the NFC support while the other features are basically identical. This includes the usual blood oxygen, heart rate, and other health related monitoring systems. The device also has a battery life of 14 days, supports various sports modes, and even a number of watch faces for its 1.64 inch 2.5D AMOLED display with a 280 x 456 pixels screen resolution, DCI-P3 color gamut, and a 326 PPI pixel density.

On the other hand, the Enco M32 has been launched for 199 Yuan (roughly 31 US Dollars), and the Watch Free NFC will be available for 599 Yuan (roughly 94 US Dollars).
