The GREE TOSOT G7 runs Android-based HALO UI 6.0 and has a ‘64MP Matrix AI Camera’ text below the cameras as well as TOSOT branding at the bottom of the rear panel. On the other hand, the Meizu 18X runs Flyme 9.2 based on Android 11 and features ‘18X Dark Vision’ text underneath the cameras as well as MEIZU branding at the back panel’s bottom.

A few days ago, Honor had announced the 5G smartphone under its X-series, dubbed as Honor X30i. Today, the Chinese company has officially started selling the phone in its home country, for a starting price of 1,399 yuan.
It comes in four different color options — Rose Gold, Titanium Silver, Charm Sea Blue, and Magic Night Black. The device is offered in three memory variants — 6GB + 128GB, 8GB + 128GB, and 8GB + 256GB, costing 1,399 yuan (~$219), 1,699 yuan (~$265), and 1,899 yuan (~$297) respectively.
In terms of specifications, the Honor X30i features a 6.7-inch LCD full-screen display with a punch-hole cutout in the top-center position of the screen. It offers a 2388 x 1080 pixels screen resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, and 93.6 percent screen-to-body ratio.

Recent reports have revealed iQOO is working on two Neo branded devices. Today, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station claimed that the two Neo models are on the way, which indicates these devices may launch this month. The names of these models are yet to be confirmed. Reports have claimed that these devices may launch in the Chinese market as iQOO Neo5s and iQOO Neo6 SE.
The first model has a 120Hz OLED panel, Snapdragon 888 mobile platform, a 4,500mAh battery with 66W fast charging, and a 48-megapixel primary camera. It is said to be an updated version of the iQOO Neo5 Vitality Edition that debuted earlier this year.
Past reports have revealed that the iQOO Neo5s has a 6.56-inch screen, a 16-megapixel front-facing camera, and an OIS-enabled Sony IMX598 48-megapixel main camera. It is also expected to arrive with other specs like 12 GB of RAM, 256 GB of built-in storage, dual speakers, and a linear motor.
The other model, which may debut as the iQOO Neo6 SE, is said to be powered by the Snapdragon 778G or Snapdragon 778G Plus chipset. It is likely to carry support for 66W fast charging. It seems to be the V2157A Vivo phone that was recently certified by the 3C authority of China. Unfortunately, the other details of the Neo6 SE are under wraps.
There are some speculations that these devices will be arriving in the market as iQOO Neo6 and iQOO Neo6 Lite. It is advisable to wait for newer reports to know their final monikers and other specs.
Qualcomm is likely to announce the next flagship chipset for mobile devices through the Tech Summit event in December. The SoC that will be succeeding the Snapdragon 888 that powered many Android flagship phones this year is being tentatively called the Snapdragon 898. Tipster Digital Chat Station shared an image of a mysterious phone powered by the SD898 chip. The image shows the phone running a benchmarking app named Device Info HW that confirms some of the key details of Qualcomm’s upcoming flagship chip.
As can be seen in the image, the model number of Qualcomm’s next flagship chip is sm8450. The SoC has a tri-cluster architecture featuring Cortex X2 prime core working at 3.0GHz. It is accompanied by three Cortex-A710 cores working at 2.5Ghz, and four Cortex-A510 power-efficient cores clocking at 1.79GHz.
For graphics, the SoC is equipped with Adreno 730 GPU. While it is not mentioned in the screenshots, reports have claimed that the chipset will include the Snapdragon X65 5G modem that is said to offer 10Gbps of downlink speeds.
There is no word on the name of the device that can be seen in the screenshot. It is equipped with slim bezels, but its top design is not clearly visible. Probably, it features a punch-hole at the top-center position.
Xiaomi and Vivo are the two brands that are expected to announce a Snapdragon 898 SoC powered flagship phone as early as next month. Last year, Xiaomi had announced the Xiaomi Mi 11 5G with Snapdragon 888 in December 2020. Hence it is likely that it could be succeeded by the Xiaomi 12 in the coming month.
Vivo’s Snapdragon 898 powered flagship was spotted at Geekbench back in September. It is unclear whether it will be an X-series or a NEX branded model.
A few weeks ago, the South Korean government had passed an amendment to the country’s Telecommunications Business Act which now prohibits Google and Apple from forcing their own payment solutions on developers.
Now, to comply with the new law, Google has announced that it will allow developers to add an alternative in-app billing system in South Korea. Along with the developer’s chosen billion systems, the Google Play Store‘s billing system will also be available.
This new change will be applicable for both mobile as well as tablet users in South Korea. Users will be able to choose which payment or billing system to use for the in-app billing during the checkout process.
Google is also warning users that the alternative billing systems may not provide the same protections or features that the company’s own billing system offers. Currently, the tech giant’s billing system offers several payment options, including gift cards and Play Points along with the usual set of options.
The company has said that it will be sharing implementation details for developers in the coming weeks and months. While Google has not provided an exact timeline for this, it’s safe to assume that the alternative in-app billing system will go live next year in Korea.
Apple still doesn’t allow third-party payments for the app or in-app purchases and says that alternate payment options would increase financial risks for users. Last month, the company pushed back against the rule change, claiming that it didn’t need to change anything in its system.
Apple Fitness+, a new service from the Cupertino-based technology giant that offers a home-based workout program through Apple Watch, has been available in the United States for about nine months.
Now, the company has confirmed that it is expanding the service by making it available in 15 more countries. These new countries include Austria, Brazil, Colombia, France, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Switzerland, and the United Arab Emirates.
Prior to this expansion, along with the US, the service was also available in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Ireland, and New Zealand.
The service features 11 different exercises with dozens of classes and many instructors to help everyone. The classes range from 5 minutes to 45 minutes. Every week, there are new workouts and videos, which means that the catalog keeps growing, allowing users more options to choose from.
Apple Fitness+ also includes Time to Walk, Guided Meditations, and more. With the launch of iOS and iPadOS 15.1, tvOS 15.1, and watchOS 8.1, the service can also be used with SharePlay, letting friends and family workout together over FaceTime.
Do note that to use this service, users need Apple Watch Series 3 or later. The service costs around $10 per month but users can also opt for the Apple One Premier subscription that already includes access to Apple Fitness+ along with a few other services from Apple which can also be shared with up to six family members.
For the first time ever, the Redmi Note series has a Pro+ variant. Its name is Redmi Note 11 Pro+ and its killer feature is the incredibly fast charging speed. But besides that, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is also one of the most complete mid-rangers in the current market. Is it the best device you can get in its price range or there are good competitors? There is no better way to understand it than comparing it to the most amazing phones sold in the same price range. Today it is the turn of the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G being the rival of the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ in this specs comparison. If you want more, stay tuned in the next few days for other comparisons including the Redmi Note 11 Pro+.

Design
Do you prefer having a better design or better materials? If your answer is the first, then Samsung Galaxy M52 5G offers something more, in my honest opinion. It has a cleaner design with a camera module coming with the same color as the rest of the rear side. Further, it is a thinner and lighter phone than Redmi Note 11 Pro+. But the latter has a glass back just like premium phones, and its front glass is protected by Gorilla Glass 5. It is a bit more compact, but it is thicker and heavier than Samsung Galaxy M52 5G.
Display
The displays of the Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus and the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G are more or less at the same level. They both come with the AMOLED technology and a Full HD+ resolution, as well as a high 120 Hz refresh rate. The Redmi Note 11 Pro+ adds the HDR10 certification which helps provide a higher image quality on streaming platforms, while the panel of the Galaxy M52 5G is dubbed Super AMOLED Plus due to its better image reproduction if compared to other AMOLED panels. Note that despite being AMOLED, these phones have a side-mounted fingerprint reader instead of an in-display biometric sensor. The audio provided by the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is louder thanks to its stereo speakers tuned by JBL, while Galaxy M52 5G has just a mono speaker.
Hardware/Software
Here we got a very interesting battle: Mediatek Dimensity 920 5G vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G. According to benchmarks, the Snapdragon 778G mobile platform found on the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G is slightly more powerful than the Dimensity 920 found on the Redmi Note 11 Pro+. On the other hand, you can get a higher amount of internal storage with the Redmi Note 11 Pro+: up to 256 GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Given the marginal differences between the hardware departments, we believe the amount of storage is a more relevant detail if you need 256 GB. The phones run Android 11 out of the box with heavily customized user interfaces.
Camera
The Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is equipped with a better main camera: a 108 MP sensor that supports 4K video recording against the 64 MP main camera of its rival. On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G has better secondary sensors: a 12 MP ultrawide camera (instead of just 8 MP) and a 5 MP macro camera (instead of 2 MP). Last but not least, the Galaxy M52 5G has a way better front camera with a 32 MP resolution.
Battery
The Samsung Galaxy M52 5G actually has a longer battery life simply because it packs a bigger battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh. Instead, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ has faster charging speeds thanks to 120W fast charging bringing the charge from 0 to 100 percent in just 15 minutes.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus vs Samsung Galaxy M52 5G: Price
The starting price of the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ in the Chinese market is about €260/$300 (still not available globally), while you need €400/$462 or more to purchase the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G globally. For some people, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ is a more interesting handset because it provides faster charging and a better main camera, but for others the Galaxy M52 5G may be better due to its thinner and lighter design, bigger battery, better secondary sensors, and superior processor. Which one would you pick?
Google’s latest flagship Pixel 6 Pro smartphone has been ranked by DXOMark among the top 10 powerful phones according to its camera capabilities. The DxOMark ranking is based on several performance metrics that yield a final ranking of smartphone models. The broad categories are picture quality, zoom capability, and video quality.
The Google Pixel 6 Pro, as per the DxOMark assessment, had a total score of 135, with 143 for the photo, 115 for video, and 71 for zoom. The Pixel 6 Pro had an impressive performance in all lighting conditions. It has a wide dynamic range, accommodating long-range shots via zoom, together with a great texture.
The detail preservation capacity of the Pixel 6 Pro was shown to outclass Apple’s flagship iPhone 13 Pro in the same lighting conditions. However, the overall DxOMark score puts the Pixel 6 Pro below the Mate 40 Pro, the iPhone 13 Pro, and the 13 Pro Max.
The assessment also highlighted some design areas that could be drawbacks of the Pixel 6 Pro camera setup. The narrow depth of field, especially in low light, impacts performance negatively. This design is commonly present in cameras with a large sensor. The assessment also showed that noise was observed in low-light situations.
In all, the DxOMark ranking of the Pixel 6 Pro is another credit to Google for its flagship offering.

OnePlus for a long was rumoured to bring the Pac-Man edition of the Nord 2 smartphone. In October, Max Jamborshared a picture teasing the upcoming OnePlus Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition phone. Today, after almost a month, the company itself has officially teased the device.
OnePlus on its social handles shared a picture of the Pac-Man game teasing the Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition. However, the picture doesn’t reveal the design or specs of the smartphone. Well, considering that it will be a limited edition model, it’s evident to have a different paint job. But, rumours in the past revealed that it may also have different hardware.

Xiaomi is the only Android OEM to release weekly beta builds of its mobile operating system MIUI based on Android. The company is known for introducing new features first in this channel. Just a few days back, we learned about the addition of a feature called ‘Front Camera Assistant’. Now, the firm has introduced yet another feature called ‘Smart toolbox’.
With the introduction of curved displays, Samsung started offering a feature called ‘Edge panel’ on its flagship smartphones. This helps users to pin certain applications and functions for quick access.
The feature is now not only available on all Samsung phones but also on handsets from other companies like OPPO. The Chinese smartphone maker calls this ‘Smart Sidebar 2.0’ in ColorOS 12.
A similar feature has finally debuted in MIUI as ‘Smart toolbox’. Xiaomi’s implementation is similar to fellow Chinese OEMs.
Users get three options to choose from. They can either access this toolbox always, during gameplay or during video playback.
If always is selected, users can quickly access pinned apps. While with the other two options, the toolbox will show tools related to gaming and videos, in addition to pinned applications.
The feature is currently in its initial stage but eventually, it may get ‘smarter’ like OPPO’s implementation. For instance, ColorOS 12’s Smart Sidebar 2.0 is capable of showing tools based on different usage scenarios.
Xiaomi is known for copying features faster than other companies. But for the first time, it is the last one to introduce a feature that’s available on almost all Android phones.
Budding Chinese automaker Hozon Auto has released the Neta V Pro electric vehicle in partnership with renowned software security firm Qihoo 360.

The Hozon Neta V Pro has an L2 intelligent assisted driving system that can be upgraded to higher versions. The car also has lots of high-impact chips, high-performance sensing devices operating in real-time. The new vehicle is capable of getting a real-time map of its surroundings and road conditions in all directions, hence assuring greater safety in its operations.

The two models enjoy some subsidies that yielded the official price, thus the pricing may be much higher than the stated amount.
The Qihoo 360 security technology will help across three core functions of the vehicle namely cleaning system cache, privacy protection, and greater security of apps on the vehicle’s user’s smartphone. The recent huge investment outlay by Qihoo 360 Technology in Hozon Auto resulted in Qihoo becoming the major shareholder of the company. Hozon Auto has continued to enjoy rising sales numbers across several models, and the new models will further show its presence in the Chinese market. The new vehicles will enjoy the full complement of Qihoo’s security and connected ecosystem for a safer and exciting driving experience.
