iQOO Z5x launch date is now confirmed. Today, iQOO took to its Weibo account to reveal that it will be unleashing the Z5x on Oct. 20. The launch date poster released by the company gives a good look at its design.
As can be seen in the poster below, the iQOO Z5x will be available in an attractive orange color. The back panel of the device is equipped with a 50-megapixel AI dual camera setup.
Last week, the iQOO Z5x with model number V2131A was approved by the TENAA authority of China. The certification n revealed all the major specs of the phone. The V2131A handset was also spotted at the Google Play Console with the Dimensity 900 chipset back in August. The handset was also spotted with the same SoC at Geekbench in the previous week.
iQOO Z5x specifications (expected)
The iQOO Z5x measures 163.95 x 75.30 x 8.5mm and weighs 169 grams. It houses a 6.58-inch TFT screen with a top-centered punch-hole. The screen offers an FHD+ resolution. It is also expected to support a high refresh rate. For photography, it has 8-megapixel front-facing camera and a 50-megapixel + 2-megapixel dual-camera unit.
The D900 powered phone will come with 6 GB / 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB / 256 GB of storage. It could be backed by a 4,880mAh rated battery. Its 3C certification revealed that its retail package may include a 44W rapid charger. At present, there is no word on the pricing of the iQOO Z5x. However, it seems that the device will be positioned lower than the iQOO Z5.
Acer, the Taiwan-based company known for its hardware and electronics devices, has announced its new laptop during a recent launch event — Acer Hummingbird Future Environmental Edition.
As the name indicates, the device is made using PCR environmentally friendly materials. The company says that the body and the screen frame uses 30 percent PCR plastic while the keycap uses 50 percent PCR plastic. Further, it also comes equipped with a 100 percent recyclable packaging box.
It features a 15.6-inch IPS LCD Full HD anti-glare display with a 16:9 aspect ratio and DC Dimming. It is powered by Intel’s 11th generation Core processors — Core i5-1155G7 and Core i7-1195G7. The laptop comes with a monochrome backlit keyboard and supports fingerprint recognition.
The company says that the laptop is assembled with standard Phillips screws for easy disassembly. Further, it adds that a memory slot has been reserved, making it convenient for the users to upgrade the device with more RAM.
The device comes with two USB 3.0 ports, one HDMI, a USB-C port, a USB 2.0 slot, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and RJ45 network cable ports. It is powered by a 48Wh battery which is said to provide around eight hours of usage. Software-wise, the product comes pre-installed with the latest Windows 11 operating system.
The base model of the Acer Humminbird Future Environmental Edition which features a Core i5-1155G7 processor, 16GB RAM, and 512GB storage is priced at 4,899 yuan (~$761). There’s another variant that packs a Core i7-1195G7 processor, 16GB RAM, and 512GB storage, which is priced at 5,999 yuan (~$932).
In September, a Vivo phone model number V2102A was spotted at the Geekbench benchmarking site. Last week, it received approval from China’s MIIT authority. Now, it has been certified by the 3C regulatory body of China.
As can be seen in the screenshot shared by Digital Chat Station, the V2102A is a 5G-ready device, and it may ship with a 44W charger. According to the tipster, this device will be released in the Chinese market with the Vivo Y71T moniker.
The V2102A’s Geekbench listing had revealed that it could be Vivo’s first smartphone powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 898 (part number sm8450). It can be said based on tipster’s Weibo post that Vivo had conducted a reliability test on the sm8450 chip and it replaced the model number of the actual device with V2102A.
Hence, it appears that the V2102A is not a flagship phone. It is now expected to arrive as a Y-series phone with the Y71T moniker. Now that it has been approved by the 3C authority, it is likely to appear with some of its key specs at the TENAA certification site.
In related news, a few other Vivo phones with model numbers V2009A, V2115A, and V2156A were recently certified by the TENAA authority of China. The V2156A is expected to arrive as a rebranded version of the upcoming iQOO Z5x. The specifications of the V2009A were found to be similar to the V2156A. The V2115’s specifications suggested that it could be a rebadged version of the iQOO Z5.

Realme will be holding a launch event on Oct. 19 in China to announce the Realme GT Neo2T smartphone. Fresh information reveals that the event will also the arrival of other Realme devices such as the Realme Q3s and Watch T1 smartwatch.
According to Chinese tipster WHY LAB, OPPO will be launching the OPPO K9s smartphone on Oct. 20 and Realme will be announcing the Realme Q3s on Oct. 19 in China. To those who are unaware, both phones are packed with almost identical specs.
TENAA images of Realme Q3s
Realme has been selling its smartwatches in many markets, it is yet to launch its first smartwatch in China. Rumors have it that the Oct. 19 event will see the arrival of the Realme Watch T1. It is expected to arrive in green and black colors. A tipster has shared a couple of images of what appears to be of the Watch T1 smartwatch.
The images show that that Watch T1 will be sporting a round-shaped dal. Apart from health and fitness features, it may also carry support for voice calls. If the Watch T1 is really arriving on Oct. 14, Realme China may soon release an official confirmation.
Coming back to the Realme Q3s, it will be arriving with a 6.59-inch LTPS FHD+ 144Hz display, a 16-megapixel selfie camera, a 48-megapixel + 2-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera unit. The device will boot to Android 11 OS.
Apple has confirmed its new “Unleashed” event for 18th October and it appears that the technology giant is set to launch its new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro devices powered by the unannounced M1X chipset.
Now, a new report coming from @PandaIsBald on Weibo claims that the Cupertino-based company will also be launching its third-generation Apple AirPods at the same event. The true wireless earbuds were previously reported to get launched along with the iPhone 13 series and Apple Watch Series 7 but that didn’t happen.
Apple AirPods 3 Render
Last month, we reported that the Apple AirPods 3 have already entered production and the suppliers have also started shipping the product to Apple. However, the initial shipments were low which is likely the reason for not releasing them last month.
We expect the second-generation of AirPods Pro to also get launched along with the third-generation of AirPods. But so far, there has been no confirmation regarding this.
An image of the upcoming AirPods 3 has already leaked online, which reveals the earphones’ design which seems to be inspired by the Pro variant. The earbuds will come with a short stem and a sensor, as well as a microphone on the front.
Internally, it is also expected to come powered by a new chipset and is said to support Apple Music Lossless Audio. Additionally, the earbuds are expected to come with improved battery life performance compared to the AirPods 2.
There’s also a possibility that the next-generation AirPods may come with support for Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). In that case, Apple needs to have something major to offer with the next-generation AirPods Pro to justify the “Pro” tag and higher pricing.
OPPO is soon going to announce the OPPO K9s smartphone in China. Ahead of the launch, the handset is now available for reservations on Chinese retailer sites like JD.com and Suning. The retailer listings have revealed the design and variants of the K9s before its official announcement.
The OPPO K9s can be seen in colors like Magic Purple Quicksand, Neon Silver Sea, and Obsidian Warrior in the official renders. As far as the design is concerned, the K9s can be seen sporting a punch-hole display on the front, a side-facing fingerprint scanner, and a 64-megapixel triple camera unit on the back.

The retailer listing reveals that the OPPO K9s will grace features like a 120Hz display, Snapdragon 778G chipset, and an X-axis linear motor for gaming. The handset will be available in two variants like 6 GB RAM + 128 GB storage and 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. At present, there is no information available on the pricing of these variants.
The reservations period mentioned in the listing suggests that it may debut on Oct. 20. Even the listing on Suning states that its pre-orders will begin on Oct. 20. The handset will be aimed towards the upcoming Double Eleven (Nov. 11) shopping festival in China.
OPPO K9s specifications
The OPPO K9s has a 6.59-inch LTPS FHD+ 120Hz screen. It has a 16-megapixel camera on the front and a 64-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera unit on the back. It has a 4,880mAh rated battery, which is likely to carry support for 30W fast charging. The Snapdragon 778G SoC fuels the device, and it runs on Android 11 OS.
Google had unveiled the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro smartphones a couple of months back and the technology giant is now all set to officially launch both devices next week, at a launch event on 19th October.
Ahead of the official announcement, almost everything related to the upcoming phones has leaked online. Now, a new report reveals one of the major features for the upcoming Pixel 6 series flagship smartphones.
A tipster going by the name Snoopy (@_snoopytech_) on Twitter has revealed that the upcoming premium smartphones from Google will offer four years of operating system upgrades and five years of security patches.
This means that the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, which will come pre-installed with the Android 12 operating system, will also be getting the upcoming Android 13, 14, 15, and 16 versions, with security patches guaranteed till 2026.
If it turns out to be true, then it is a major advantage for the users of the Pixel 6 series given that most smartphone manufacturers only promise up to two major OS version updates, which basically means two years of support.
It appears that this is becoming possible for the company as it will be using its own Tensor chipset for smartphones. Prior to this, Google smartphones were powered by Qualcomm’s processor, which may have created an issue for the search engine giant to guarantee a smooth transition to newer OS versions.
The commitment of Google to offer updates for more years could also force other Android smartphone manufacturers to expand the software support duration. Although it is still not up to Apple’s standard, it’s good to see companies making an effort in this direction.
Realme recently launched its first tablet: the Realme Pad. A few weeks after, even Nokia came up with its first tablet: the Nokia T20. Both the manufacturers decided to start with an affordable tablet instead of a flagship, in order to provide a device that can be suitable for everyone. While we are waiting for higher-end tablets from these two brands, it is time to compare their specifications in order to understand which one is the best affordable tablet you can buy at the moment. If you are looking for a great Android tablet with a minimum expense, go ahead with this comparison and find out the differences between these two devices.
The Realme Pad is the tablet providing the best design. It is thinner and even lighter, with narrow bezels around the display and a single camera on the back. It has an aluminum frame and aluminum back guaranteeing a solid build quality. Despite it has the same display diagonal, the Realme Pad is slightly more compact than the Nokia T20 because it has a higher screen to body ratio. The main reason making the Realme Pad a better tablet in terms of design are its dimension, thickness, and weight, but for the rest, these devices do not differ too much. The Nokia T20 has a high screen to body ratio and an aluminum body as well. Further, it is splash resistant, unlike the Realme tablet.
Display
The displays of the Realme Pad and the Nokia T20 are very similar. They both feature a diagonal of 10.4 inches and the same IPS LCD technology, as well as the same Full HD+ resolution with 1200 x 2000 pixels. So you get the same level of detail and a similar (average) image quality. It looks like the Nokia T20 has higher brightness, but if we exclude that, the display experience should be the same. Both the tablets come with stereo speakers and a 3.5 mm audio jack to connect headphones. Unfortunately, there is no fingerprint reader on any of these tablets. There is also no keyboard support and no stylus support.
Specs & Software
The Realme Pad wins the hardware comparison thanks to a more powerful chipset. We are talking about the octa-core MediaTek Helio G80 built at 12 nm. Just like the Unisoc T610 found on the Nokia T20, the Helio G80 is composed of 2 Cortex A75 CPUs and six Cortex A55 CPUs, but the Cortex A75 is clocked at 2 GHz instead of 1.8 GHz on the Helio G80. The memory configurations are the same: either 3 or 4 GB of RAM and 32 or 64 GB of internal storage. The tablets run Android 11, but the Nokia T20 has a stock version of the operating system, while the Realme Pad is customized. Note that both the tablets come in an LTE variant supporting 4G connectivity and a SIM slot.
Camera
The rear cameras of the Realme Pad and the Nokia T20 are exactly the same: an 8 MP sensor which can not provide a great photo quality, it is just an entry-level camera and even on low-end phones you can actually find better sensors. The Realme Pad provides a better front camera with a resolution of 8 MP, which is an important detail if you want to use your new tablets for video calls and conferences. The Nokia T20 has an inferior 5 MP front snapper.
The battery of the Nokia T20 is bigger with a capacity of 8200 mAh, which is the reason why its battery life is superior to the Realme Pad. On the other hand, the Realme tablet provides the support of reverse charging which allows using it as a power bank to charge other devices through a USB cable.
Price
The Realme Pad launched in Asia with a starting price tag of €150/$174, while the Nokia T20 starts from about €200/$232 in the base variant with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of native storage. If we exclude the battery life, the Realme Pad is a superior tablet: it has a better chipset, a superior front camera, and reverse charging. But if you need the longest battery life, then Nokia T20 might be a better choice for you because the rest of the specifications are still at a similar level: the SoC is weaker, but the difference is marginal; further, the Nokia T20 offers a splash resistant body and a scratch resistant front glass which you do not get with the Realme Pad.
Fujifilm has launched a new mobile printer, the Instax Link Wide Smartphone Printer, which uses a larger Instax wide-format film. The Instax Link Wide Smartphone Printer is similar to the currently available Instax Mini Link. It connects to your phone via Bluetooth and uses an application to edit and print Polaroid-style snapshots in your camera roll.
Instax Wide film is much larger than Instax Mini, about the size of two credit cards side by side. This means that the photos printed by your Link Wide may not be as easy to put in your wallet as Instax Mini photos, but they should be more visible and can be used for other purposes.
Instax Wide printers are also compatible with Fujifilm’s X-S10 mirrorless camera launched last year, allowing you to print directly without using a mobile phone. Of course, you can also print photos taken with other cameras, just upload them to your phone and then upload them to the Instax Link app.
Fujifilm says that the Link Wide printer should be able to print about 100 Instax photos when the battery is charged. There are two printing modes, Rich (Rich) and Natural (Natural), allowing you to choose between “bright and immersive or saturated and classic” color output, as well as editing the image by cropping or adding text in the application ability.
Fujifilm will release the Instax Link Wide Smartphone Printer at the end of this month, priced at $149.95. The company will also launch a new black-framed Instax Wide film, a pack of 10 sheets, priced at $21.99.
Among the new products announced at the Realme event in India today is the Realme 4K Smart Googe TV Stick. It is the first streaming stick from a third-party manufacturer to launch with Google TV. Those who live in India will be particularly considering the Chromecast with Google TV isn’t sold in the country.
Prior to its launch, a leak revealed the specifications of the realme 4K Smart Google TV Stick and among the provided details was the storage capacity which was stated to be 16GB. That was pleasant news as the Chromecast with Google TV’s measly 8GB of storage wasn’t sufficient and that resulted in user complaints. In my excitement, I even penned down an article about how it was better than Google’s own streaming dongle. Turns out the information was incorrect and the Realme TV Stick doesn’t have 16GB storage but 8GB!
It is disappointing to see manufacturers making the same mistake as competitors. With 8GB of storage, of which less than that is available out of the box, users will soon run into storage issues within a short period.
The spec sheet on the product page states the Realme 4K Smart TV Stick has 2GB of RAM and 8GB of storage. It also has a processor with four Arm Cortex-A35 cores for its CPU and a dual-core GPU. It has HDR10+ support and can stream in 4K at 60fps. The product page also mentions Bluetooth 5.0 and HDMI 2.1.
The Realme 4K Smart TV Stick doesn’t have a stylish Bluetooth remote like the Chromecast with Google TV but it isn’t bad. Its buttons include a circular directional pad with a yellow ring inside it, a mute button, a power button, a settings button, volume control buttons, a Google Assistant button, and shortcut buttons for Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, and YouTube Music.
Realme has put a ₹3,999 (~$53) price tag on the streaming stick which is a few bucks higher than the $49 price tag of the Chromecast with Google TV. The manufacturer is yet to reveal when it will be available for purchase.
Luxury smartwatch maker Withings is set to launch the ScanWatch in North America this November. The smartwatch comes with some impressive innovations and happens to be the first FDA-cleared smartwatch to feature both ECG and blood oxygen level monitoring via some new sensors.
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the regulatory body for such health-related features. The new smart wearable device will be able to measure atrial fibrillation and blood oxygen levels, which are very important health and fitness metrics.
The ECG and SpO2 monitoring offer an additional layer of health safety for users. In a press release, Withings stated that the ScanWatch is the first smart wearable to record both ECG and SpO2 measurements, and will help to detect significant departure from the normal readings to trigger further health intervention. The wearable has been clinically validated and can aid in the detection of breathing disturbances indicative of some deeper respiratory issues.
The ScanWatch will be a useful health and fitness companion for its users. It has a degree of water resistance up to 5 atmospheres, a 30-day battery life, and will have a starting price tag of $277 for the smaller model while the bigger watch will cost $299. From November 1, the ScanWatch will be available via the Withings website, Amazon, or Best Buy.
The Withings ScanWatch comes with a design philosophy quite different from some of the popular smart wearables. Rather than touchscreens, the ScanWatch is a combination of dials and digital screens giving a traditional appeal to the tech-powered smartwatch.
TECNO was expected to launch the Spark 8P soon and this week, the company has silently announced it. The TECNO Spark 8P brings a large 6.6-inch display and a 50MP triple rear camera system.
TECNO Spark 8P Pricing, Colors, and Specifications
Unfortunately, the TECNO Spark 8P’s pricing is yet to be revealed but the phone’s colour variants are known. The smartphone will come in four colour variants like Turquoise Cyan, Iris Purple, Atlanta Blue, and Cocoa Gold.

The Camon 18 is powered by the MediaTek Helio G88 SoC and the Camon 18P is powered by the Helio G96 chipset.
DJI’s upcoming Mavic 3 drone has been the subject of much speculation and leaks recently. The scenario is yet to abate as shown in the latest leak of images of the drone showing some fine details of the device. The DJI Mavic 3 is scheduled for release on November 5, as tweeted by the company via its official Twitter handle.
The Mavic 3 is primed to offer overall improvements from its predecessor in terms of video recording capabilities and other important features. The new images show the drone folded and taped onto a tray plate on a tripod, with the blurred outline of a person holding the basic remote controller of the device. The new RC Pro DJI Smart Controller will only be part of the package for the DJI Mavic 3 Cine Premium Combo.
The image of the battery of the DJI Mavic 3 also reveals clearly that it is a massive improvement from its predecessors and will over a greater range for the drone. The battery is loaded from the back of the drone and bears some close semblance with the DJI FPV model. There are four visible LED lights indicating the charge status of the battery and on/off functionality.

DJI Mavic 3 battery
The tipster Jasper Ellens via Twitter also states that the new DJI Mavic 3 drone battery is 30% bigger than its predecessor and offers up to 46 minutes in additional flight time for the device. These improvements could be very substantial and will also reflect in the pricing of the DJI Mavic 3. However, we await the official specs outlay for the Mavic 3 series, and these details will be available as we inch closer to the November 5 launch date for the DJI Mavic 3.
Mobvoi has announced its latest smartwatch, the TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra GPS, today. The new watch is an upgraded version of the TicWatch Pro 3 announced last year but even with the new features, refreshed design, and upgrades, it has the same launch price as the 2019 model.
The TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra GPS has been redesigned. The tachymeter is different and the ring around it has markings similar to those on the buttons and on the strap.
Coming to its specs, the watch has a 1.4-inch 454 x 454 full-color AMOLED display and a second FSTN display on top. One new feature that has been added is the ability to change the color of the backlight of the FSTN display. Mobvoi has included a palette of 18 different colors that owners can choose from.
The display is protected by a sheet of Corning Gorilla Glass and has an anti-fingerprint coating. The watch case is also stronger as it is made from stainless steel and high-strength nylon with fiberglass. It also has a MIL Standard 810G certification. Attached to the watch is a 22mm interchangeable fluoro rubber strap which Mobvoi claims is not only soft but strong.
There is still a Snapdragon Wear 4100 and Mobvoi dual-processor under the hood along with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage. It also still runs the old Wear OS, but like its siblings, it will get upgraded.
The new features of the watch include support for more than 20 professional workout modes compared to the 10+ modes of the TicWatch Pro 3. Among the newly included sports modes are high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workouts, soccer, table tennis, lawn tennis, and basketball.
The TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra GPS also has an upgraded heart rate monitor that can detect irregular heartbeat (IHB) and AFib.

It also has an IP68 rating, a speaker, and a microphone. The battery capacity is unchanged at 577mAh and it will last 72 hours on a single charge in Smart Mode but go up to 45 days in Essential Mode.
The TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra GPS is priced at $299.99 and is already available for purchase on the Mobvoi website. It can be purchased in Shadow Black.
The trajectory of the development of audio accessories like earbuds is taking a more powerful function. A report monitored on the Wall Street Journal indicates that Apple may be developing AirPods that could sync with the Apple Watch to take temperature measurements, evaluate body posture, and even function as a hearing aid for those that have a hearing impairment.
As per the report from WSJ, the prototype of the new AirPods indicate that it will measure the body’s core temperature from inside the user’s ear. Furthermore, the in-ear temperature sensors are expected to synchronize with the temperature sensor in the Apple Watch Series 8. The new feature of the device operating as a hearing aid could also have far-reaching implications for those with some hearing difficulties. The Conversation Boost feature is a new function in the AirPods Pro that enables the user to have enhanced volume and voice clarity from persons directly in front of the user. The basic AirPods design consists of microphones, amplifiers, and the necessary processor for enhanced voice clarity and volume.
It is however unclear whether the new designs will approach sound amplification through another route or it will just be an enhancement of the current Conversation Boost feature. The full design of the prototype will have to be seen to ascertain whether it could serve as a hearing aid. Importantly, the battery life of the model has to be improved upon tremendously for all-day use as a hearing aid. The report noted that it is possible that battery expansion considerations could be made by the FDA for such a new class of multi-functional hearing aids.
There is no indication when this rumored AirPods will become a commercial product if indeed it makes its way to the market. No confirmation has been gotten from Apple yet on the matter.

Smart glasses seem to be the new rave these days. This year, we have seen new players enter into this budding market category and the number is expected to keep growing. Anker is the newest player in this space and its first product is the Soundcore Frames.
The Soundcore Frames is similar to the Razer Anzu smart glasses that launched in March in that both have built-in speakers. However, Anker takes the design further by offering up to 10 different designs, unlike the Razer Anzu which is available in only two designs.
Anker has put a price tag of $199.99 on the Soundcore Frames while additional frames some of which have polarized lenses for blocking UV rays or blue-light filters will sell for $49.99. There is also support for prescription lenses. Users will be able to remove the temples which house all of the components and swap them to another frame they own. To know if a frame fits you before purchasing it, there is a virtual try-on page on the website and on the Soundcore app for Android and iOS that allows you to try on different frames.
The manufacturer says the glasses have four speakers for an OpenSurround experience. There are two microphones that work together with a noise reduction algorithm to block out ambient noise when making calls. The Soundcore Frames also has its own local assistant for music control and calls. It has a battery life of 5.5 hours and is rated IPX4 water-resistant.
If you plan to get the Soundcore Frames, you can get an extra frame for just $1 if you pledge before October 31st. A code will be sent to those who do so and they are required to complete their order for the glasses from November 1st through 10th on the official Soundcore website or on Amazon. The code sent to them earlier can be used to get a free frame.
Just as scheduled, Samsung has launched the W22 5G foldable smartphone in China. The foldable device will be a China-only model and is an ultra-high-end customized flagship mobile phone jointly created by Samsung and China Telecom.
Just like its predecessor, the Samsung W22 5G adopts a foldable design and features support for the S Pen stylus. The device also packs Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 888 chipset as well as other topnotch features such as 5G connectivity, under-screen camera, internal and external dual-screen 120Hz refresh rate support. Despite the improved features, the W22 5G will retail for 16,999 yuan (~$2,644) which is 3,000 yuan cheaper than the previous generation. We must note, though, that the W21 5G utilizes a Snapdragon 865+ chipset but Samsung didn’t include the Plus variant of the Snapdragon 888 on this model. The processor pairs with 16GB of RAM while there is a sole 512GB storage option.
The W22 5G adopts a symmetrically streamline design for the internal and external displays. The displays are protected by the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus. This is the strongest glass in the Samsung W series. The device comes in a sleek black color scheme with a gold accent at the hinges.
The small display is a 6.2-inch screen with a resolution of 2260×832 pixels and a pixel density of 387PPI. The bigger internal display is 7.6 inches in size and has a resolution of 2208×1768 pixels and a pixel density of 374PPI. As stated earlier, both the internal and external screens support a 120Hz refresh rate. The Eco2 OLED panel used for both displays reduces power consumption.
The W22 5G also arrives as the first W series phone to feature the under-screen camera technology. It packs a 4MP sensor and supports high-definition selfies. At the rear, it features a triple camera setup consisting of a 12MP wide-angle main camera, a 12MP telephoto lens, and a 12MP ultra-wide-angle sensor.
The rear casing of the device features the “Heart to the World” logo which uses dynamic light and shadow to create a majestic and atmospheric texture that will show different visual effects from different angles.
In terms of battery, the W22 5G foldable phone is equipped with a 4400mAh battery that supports 25W fast charging, 10W wireless charging, and 4.5W reverse wireless charging. The phone also supports IPX8 water resistance, which is yet another first for the W series. There is an S Pen stylus that can be handy for office or entertainment.
Reservations for the W22 5G will start at 10 o’clock on October 14 while the device will go on sale from October 22nd.
OnePlus today held an event in China where it launched the flagship OnePlus 9RT. The company also took the wraps off the OnePlus Buds Z2 Truly Wireless Earbuds. The Buds Z2 arrives with flagship-grade 40dB active noise cancellation (ANC) feature and an affordable price tag of 399 yuan (~$62). This ranks the Buds Z2 as perhaps the TWS headset with the best noise-canceling experience in this price range.
The OnePlus Buds Z2 is an upgrade of the Buds Z that was launched last year. It features better sound quality, battery life, connection, and other improvements. The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) feature is perhaps the most outstanding feature on the Buds Z2 but the wearable can also achieve noise reduction for three-mic AI calls, effectively reducing call noise. It is equipped with an 11mm moving coil unit that can be used with smartphones running ColorOS 12 to turn on “Dolby Atmos”.
The earbuds also bring support for Bluetooth 5.2 as well as a 38-hour long battery life inclusive of the charging case. It equally has an IP55 waterproof and sweatproof rating making it suitable for use during workouts. The OnePlus Buds Z2 truly wireless headset will go on sale on October 19 but is already on pre-sale in China. There is no word yet on the global launch but we expect the brand to launch the wearable for the global market soon.
