After teasing it for some time, Lenovo finally launched its latest laptop under the Yoga series in the Chinese market, dubbed as Lenovo Yoga 14s Pro Carbon 2022. For those who are unaware, the Yoga series devices are positioned in the premium category and are aimed at business users.
The newly launched Lenovo Yoga 14s Pro Carbon is using silver carbon fiber and magnesium-aluminum alloy for the body. As the name indicates, it comes with a 14-inch display offering 2880 x 1800 pixels screen resolution.
It comes with support for a 90Hz refresh rate, DCI-P3 wide color gamut, and 1.07 billion colors. The color is calibrated one by one at the factory, ΔE＜2, with a peak brightness of 600nit. It has also passed DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification.
Lenovo’s Product Manager Lin Lin has said that the laptop isn’t White-colored but will be offered in Silver color. Further, he added that the device will have integrated graphics and have support for touchscreen.
There’s a camera sensor placed on the ultra-narrow top bezel which measures 3.9mm. Unlike the recently launched MacBook Pro 14-inch and 16-inch models, Lenovo didn’t adopt the notched display design for housing the camera sensor on the narrow bezel, but how good is the camera sensor remains to be seen.
Additionally, the company has also revealed that the device comes with support for Dolby Atmos sound system with stereo sound as well as high and low-frequency crossover and an array of four speakers.
We expect the company to reveal more details about this laptop thorugh teaser posters in the coming days, ahead of announcing pricing and availability details for the Chinese market on 2nd November, just days ahead of the Double 11 sale.

Taiwanese tech giant HTC has been quiet on the smartphone scene for a relatively long while. No thanks to stronger brands that have relatively edged the company out of the perking order. The brand has in recent times shifted focus to the VR headet market with the launch of the Vive Flow VR headset only recently. The tech giant has now unveiled a Truly Wireless Earbuds dubbed HTC True Wireless Earbuds Plus.
The HTC TWS Plus utilizes an in-ear design with silicon tips making it gentle on the ears. The earbuds’ design also include short stems that guarantee their portability. The earbuds come with Active Noise Cancellation, a feature which places it at the high-end of the spectrum. Each bud has a battery life of 4.5 hours wth ANC turned on and 5.5 hours when it is turned off.
Further, like all other pair of earbuds, the HTC’s latest model has a charging case which is touted to extend the battery life up to 86 hours of music playback. The earbuds are also equipped with an IPX5 sweat and water resistance rating which makes it suitable for use during workouts.
As for the pricing and availability, the HTC True Wireless Earbuds Plus is on offer in the UK for £69. It is available in Black and White colour options. The company is yet to reveal the roll out itinerary for the US, European and other markets.
Xiaomi 12 isn’t expected until next year but thanks to popular Chinese tipstter Digital Chat Station, we are already getting an idea of how the device will look like and its features. The Weibo tipster has now diclosed that the Xiaomi 12 will arrive with a high screen-to-body ratio. The tipster equally hinted that the device will come with a smaller punch-hole design.
Xiaomi 12 Concept
Xiaomi has over the years consistently made efforts to reduce the size of the bezels around its smartphone displays. The most successful of such venture has been without doubt on the Mi Mix series. The flagship Mi, now Xiaomi series have also had its own fair share of significant reduction in the sizes of the bezels. Thus, a high screen-to-body ratio can only mean that the company is planning to further trim the bezels around the display to further increase the screen ratio. Perhaps, we’ll see a reduction of the bezels around the chin to match the size of the side bezels.
In addition, the tipster hinted that the flagship device will feature a curved-edge design and a flexible display panel. Digital Chat Station also hinted at a smaller punch-hole compared to those of the Mi 11 series.
Earlier on, the same tipster had disclosed that the Xiaomi 12 will likely feature three 50-megapixels camera sensors at the rear. This sounds ridiculous but you never can tell.
In other aspects, the flagship 12 series is expected to be powered by the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 898 SoC. The device is also likely to cram a massive 5,000mAh battery under the hood with 120W wired fast charging support and 100W wireless ffst charging. Xiaomi is yet to release any official detail pertaining to the 12 though. So, these are just rumours at best.
There have been numerous reports of an iPhone SE 3, a successor to the iPhone SE (2020). The phone is expected to be the last Apple smartphone with an LCD display and should have 5G support. New info has surfaced and it reveals the iPhone SE 3 has been postponed. However, a new model called the iPhone SE Plus will launch next year.
iPhone SE (2020)’ successor said to be the iPhone SE Plus
The iPhone SE series is a line of affordable small-screen iPhones that was first introduced in 2016. The second phone in the series didn’t launch till last year and a successor is expected to arrive in 2021.
According to Ross Young (@DSCCRoss), the latest news regarding the iPhone SE series says Apple will launch an iPhone SE Plus in 2022. This phone will have a 4.7-inch LCD like the iPhone SE 2020, which is actually the same display as that of the iPhone 8. The phone will also have 5G.
We now hear the next LCD iPhone will be introduced in 2022 and called the SE Plus with the same 4.7" LCD as the 8 along with 5G. We hear the iPhone SE3 with a 5.7" – 6.1" LCD is now pushed to 2024. https://t.co/9gxiAAk8Yi
He adds that the iPhone SE 3 which should have an LCD between 5.7 and 6.1 inches has been postponed to 2024. The new release date means Apple is sticking to a 2-year cycle for the iPhone SE line. Unfortunately, there is no explanation as to why Apple has changed its plans.
None of the info above has been confirmed yet, and while the source has a great track record, we still advise readers to take it with a pinch of salt. Manufacturers are known to change their plans and it can sometimes include the cancellation of a product.

Compact flagships are not a trend, but Apple keeps releasing them and a lot of people choose them due to their compact dimensions. The latest compact flagship released by Apple is the iPhone 13 mini: it has nothing to envy if compared to all the other devices from the iPhone 13 series, but it comes with smaller dimensions. A lot of people are wondering whether it is worth spending more for this handset or to get the very affordable iPhone SE released in 2020 which is currently the most affordable iPhone on the shelves. This comparison will highlight the differences between the specifications of the iPhone 13 mini and the 2020 version of the iPhone SE.
Apple iPhone SE vs Apple iPhone 13 mini

DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT

141 g
DISPLAY
4.7 inches, 750 x 1334p (HD+), Retina IPS LCD
5.4 inches, 1080 x 2340p (Full HD+), Super Retina XDR OLED
You just need to look at them to recognize them: the iPhone 13 mini has the best design ever seen on a smartphone by Apple, with a borderless display and a notch 20 percent smaller than the one found on the iPhone 12 series. The handset is built with a glass back and an aluminum frame and it has the IP68 certification making it waterproof and dustproof. The iPhone SE, instead, has a very old design: the same as the old iPhone 8 with thick bezels around the display, a glass back, an aluminum frame, and the IP67 certification guaranteeing water resistance. Despite the iPhone 13 mini having a bigger display, it is more compact thanks to its narrow bezels around the screen. It also comes with better water resistance and higher resistance thanks to Ceramic Shield.
Display
The display of the iPhone 13 mini is 10 times better if compared to the iPhone SE 2020. Unlike the SE, it has a Super Retina XDR OLED panel with the HDR10 certification and Dolby Vision support, as well as a higher Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. The iPhone SE 2020 has a lower-end IPS panel with an HD+ resolution. The iPhone 13 mini relies on 3D facial recognition for authentication, while the iPhone SE 2020 has the old Touch ID which consists of a fingerprint reader. There is definitely no challenge when it comes to the display: the iPhone 13 mini wins with a wide margin.
Specs & Software
The iPhone 13 mini wins the hardware comparison as well because it has a stronger processor and a higher quantity of RAM. The Apple A15 Bionic found on the iPhone 13 mini provides a 50% CPU performance boost compared to the Apple A14 Bionic and a 30 percent GPU performance boost. The iPhone SE 2020 has the Apple A13 Bionic chipset which you can also find on the iPhone 11 lineup: it is still a high-end chipset, but it is very inferior to the A15 Bionic. Further, the iPhone SE 2020 has just 3 GB of RAM instead of the 4 GB found on the iPhone 13 mini. Last but not least, iPhone 13 mini runs iOS 15 out of the box and it will get two more years of software support, while iPhone SE 2020 ships with iOS 13.
Camera
The iPhone 13 mini has a stronger camera department composed of a 12 MP main camera with an f/1.6 focal aperture and a 12 MP ultrawide sensor with an f/2.4 aperture. The iPhone SE 2020 has just a single sensor on the rear: a 12 MP camera with an f/1.8 focal aperture. With the iPhone 13 mini you can shoot better photos under every light condition and record better videos.
With a capacity of 2438 mAh, the iPhone 13 mini provides a bigger battery and a longer battery life. Besides its bigger battery, it also provides a lower energy consumption thanks to its efficient OLED display and a 5 nm chipset.
Price
You can currently find the iPhone SE 2020 for less than €400/$400, while you need at least €800 or $700 to get the iPhone 13 mini. The 13 mini is a superior phone from every point of view (display, camera, battery, hardware, and software), but you can save a lot of money with the SE while still getting great performance and a solid user experience.
Apple iPhone SE vs Apple iPhone 13 mini: PRO and CONS
Around the second half of August this year, Indian startup ebikeGo unveiled the Rugged G1 and G1+ electric scooters purpose-built for the Indian market. The electric motorbikes are not only designed to withstand the rugged Indian terrain, they also key into the government’s drive to achieve sustainability in the electric two-wheeler market. While the e-scooters are not yet rolling out from the factory, the company commenced bookings for the rugged bikes immediately.

Despite launching the Redmi Note 10 series this year, Xiaomi‘s independent Redmi brand is set to take the wraps off its successor in a couple of days times. The Redmi Note 11 series is already confirmed to launch on October 28. Ahead of the launch, Xiaomi has been quite generous with details of the new series which is being dished out by way of teaser posters.
The Redmi Note 11 is confirmed to pack a 4500mAh battery
Redmi went ballistic today, releasing several teaser posters in quick succession, as a way of counting down to the launch date. Some of the teasers are reiterations of what the brand had earlier revealed like the presence of an AMOLED screen, the retention of the legendary 3.5mm audio jack, and support for 120W fast charging.
Redmi’s latest teasers show the device will also bring support for NFC for contactless payment as well as Bluetooth 5.2 and WiFi 6 support. The device is also shown to pack a 4500mAh battery under the hood which can be topped up in a short while thanks to the 120W fast charging capability. The safety of the 120W charging is guaranteed as the technology is TuV Rheinland certified.
One of the teasers also reveals the presence of an X-axis linear vibration motor aimed at delivering shorter, crisper vibrations and a better reminder experience.
Redmi is yet to confirm the processor onboard the device but at this rate, we won’t be surprised if that is done in the coming days, right before the launch. There are speculations that the vanilla Note 11 will get its juice from a MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset while the Pro model will be fired up by a Dimensity 920 chipset. The topmost Note 11 Pro Plus is rumored to pack a Dimensity 1200U chipset. We’ll have to wait to see if indeed it’ll entirely be a MediaTek affair.
The Motorola Edge S launched in China early this year as the first smartphone powered by the Snapdragon 870. The phone later made it out of China as the Moto G100. A successor is now on the way and it is expected to launch next month as the Moto G200.
The Moto G100’s successor arrives next month as the Moto G200
The first mention of the Moto G200 was on Twitter via the famous leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks) who revealed that the phone is codenamed “Yukon”. Now the folks at TechnikNews have revealed more details about the phone.
The source reports that the Moto G200 will have an FHD+ display with a 144Hz refresh rate. The display type isn’t mentioned but there is a possibility it is an OLED panel like that of the Motorola Edge 20 Pro/Motorola Edge S Pro.
The Moto G200 will swap the Snapdragon 870 chipset for the Snapdragon 888 which will be paired with 8GB of RAM. It will also replace the 64MP primary camera on its predecessor with the Samsung S5KHM2 108MP sensor of the Edge 20 Pro. There is also a 13MP ultrawide angle camera which should be able to shoot macro photos and a 2MP depth sensor. Those who didn’t like the double punch hole of the Moto G100 will be pleased to know there is a single 16MP front-facing camera on the Moto G200.
There is no specific date for the launch of the Moto G200 save for the report that it is arriving next month. Unfortunately, it will run Android 11 out of the box and not the latest Android 12. It has also been reported that it will be sold in China as the Motorola Edge S30.
Last year, Redmi launched its first fitness tracker, the Redmi Band, in China. The fitness tracker eventually made its way to India as the Redmi Smart Band and to Malaysia as the Mi Smart Band 4C. Now, rather than a Redmi Band 2, it appears what we will be getting is the Redmi Smart Band Pro.
The Redmi Smart Band Pro is not far away. Actually, as reported by Winfuture.de, the fitness tracker is expected to arrive this week in Europe.
According to the source, the Redmi Smart Band Pro is the Xiaomi subsidiary’s take on the Huawei Watch Fit. As shown in the image, it has a larger display than the Redmi Band and even the Mi Band 6. We are not sure but the rectangular display should be AMOLED. There are no buttons on the side which means operating it is entirely via touch.

Earlier this year, we had reported on Huawei unveiling the Arcfox Alpha S, which was a new electric vehicle that was co-developed with BAIC and featured HarmonyOS. Now, the company has officially announced that it will begin the production and delivery for a small batch of Arcfox Alpha S units in the fourth quarter of this year.
While Huawei has stated in the past that it is not planning on building cars, it has been actively working with other carmakers for the launch of its own in car systems for both hardware and softwares. The Arcfox Alpha S is a great example of the Chinese tech giant partnering with an automobile brand for an advanced car with autonomous driving features. For those unaware, the Alpha S is the result of over a billion dollars worth of investment for research and development of EV and autonomous driving based research.
Despite the Arcfox being branded under BAIC, the new electric car’s highlighting features is the Huawei’s “HI” systems. This system is short for Huawei Inside and offers the Level 4 capabilities, which means that the car is capable of full autonomy. The car is priced between 388,900 Yuan and 429,900 Yuna (roughly 60,000 to 66,000 US Dollars) and runs HarmonyOS and related applications powered by a Huawei HiSilicon Kirin processor.
This allows it to offer automated driving, fast charging, and even cloud computing as well. While the company does claim L4, it clarified that the L4 is in experience but it is legally required to note l2 since China has only permitted a small number of companies from testing autonomous vehicles and is far from allowing consumer vehicles being driven autonomously on the urban roads. But Huawei did showcase the L4 function, with the Arcfox traveling 1,000 kilometers in a busy Chinese city without any human intervention. The car managed to achieve this through a series of sensors, including LiDAR, six millmeter wave radars, 13 ultrasonic radars, and 12 cameras along with Huawei’s own chipset for self driving.
Earlier this month, OPPO launched a budget smartphone called OPPO A55 in India. A few days from that, details about a higher variant of this device called OPPO A56 5G have now emerged. As the name suggests, the latest model arrives with 5G connectivity.
According to the industry sources of 91Mobiles, OPPO will soon launch the OPPO A56 5G in India. Apart from sharing a picture of the device in all colors, the sources have also revealed all the key features of the handset to the publication.
As per the image, the phone will arrive in three colors, namely Soft Mist Black, Wind Chime Purple, and Cloud Smoke Blue. It will house a rectangular camera island on the rear with two cameras, LED flash, and 5G branding. The back of the smartphone will also include an OPPO branding,
As far as specs are concerned, the OPO A56 5G will sport a 6.2-inch LCD panel with HD+ resolution and a dewdrop notch. It will be powered by a MediaTek Dimensiity 700 SoC paired with 4GB/6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.
The handset will come with a 13MP (wide) + 2MP (depth) rear camera setup and an 8MP front-facing camera. It will run ColorOS 11.1 based on Android 11 and will be backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for 10W charging.
Interestingly, the phone will not only have a side-mounted fingerprint sensor but also NFC. Last but not least, it will measure 8.4mm in thickness and weigh 189g.
Huawei‘s smartphone business may be in the lurch at the moment but the company has been pushing its ecosystem products in several markets. There were reports of the company planning to launch the Watch FIT New in India in the coming days. Before that will happen, the company has made a surprise unveiling of the Watch FIT Mini. The smartwatch is listed on Amazon Germany.
Both the new Watch FIT Mini and the unannounced Watch Fit New are offshoots of the Huawei Watch Fit that made its debut last year. The Watch Fit came with an elongated square-shaped design and was well-received both in China and overseas. The new iteration retains the same design as its predecessor but is a bit smaller.
In terms of specification, the Watch FIT Mini features a 1.47-inch display with a resolution of 194 x 368 pixels. In comparison, the Watch FIT packs a 1.64-inch screen which is 0.17-inches bigger and has a better resolution. But the display type is still an AMOLED panel.
The watch retains the sports and health-tracking features smartwatches are known for. Some of the health/fitness features include a SpO2 sensor, stress monitoring, and sleep tracking.
Furthermore, the watch features up to 96 sports modes, supporting activities such as swimming, cycling, walking, running, and many others. You won’t have to worry about taking it out jogging or while in the shower as it comes with 5 ATM water resistance.
The Huawei Watch Fit Mini carries a price tag of €99 in the EU. The watch crams a 180mAh battery under the hood which Huawei claims can last up to 14 days. We can’t say when the company will launch the watch in other markets soon.
Sony has a launch event scheduled for tomorrow, and from a teaser video, we already know it is a smartphone. This is not just any Sony smartphone, but according to one early user that appeared in the teaser video, it is the “best smartphone camera”. Just a day to the event, official press renders of the phone have leaked, giving us an early look at this camera beast.
Sony Xperia Pro-I
The photos, which were posted on Twitter by @nokishita_c, show the phone from various angles as well as some of its features. According to the sources, the device should launch as the Sony Xperia Pro-I.
The Xperia Pro-1 seems to get its name from the 1-inch camera sensor on the back of the phone. The camera is said to be a brand new sensor that will be making its debut on the new Xperia flagship. This 1” sensor will be one of the highlights of the phone’s launch tomorrow. In one of the photos, it is shown that the sensor has a variable aperture and can switch between F2.0 and F4.0. Alongside the 1-inch sensor are three other cameras, all of which are stacked vertically in the middle of the phone.
The phone shares some of its design with the Xperia Pro that was announced back in January but has enough to distinguish it. The middle frame has three parallel lines running across it. On the right side of the phone are the volume rocker, a power button that doubles as a fingerprint scanner, a Google Assistant button, and a textured shutter button.
Unlike the Xperia Pro which served as a companion device to Sony cameras, thus acting as a viewfinder. The Xperia Pro-I is designed to be the only camera you need. In one of the photos, the phone is attached to a gimbal and a handful of accessories including a microphone and a small display that serves as a vlog monitor.

In another photo, the Xperia Pro-I is seen attached to a white Sony VR headset which means Sony will likely announce a VR headset at tomorrow’s event.
The Xperia Pro-I will be pretty expensive just like the Xperia Pro which launched for $2499 in the US. Considering this new phone has better features, it should have a higher launch price.
