POCO F2 Pro
The MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update for POCO F2 Pro is currently live in Indonesia. It arrives with build number V12.5.2.0.RJKIDXM. Apart from bringing new under the hood changes, the latest system update also bumps up the security patch level to October 2021.
As always, the OTA software update is being rolled out in batches. Therefore, it will take days to reach every user. At the same time, the update should be also available for other regional variants like Global, EEA, Russia, and Turkey.
The POCO F2 Pro is known as Redmi K30 Pro. This version of the handset got access to MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition in August itself.
Both POCO F2 Pro and Redmi K30 are just one and a half years old. These phones have only received a single major MIUI as well as a sole Android update. Hence, they will likely get Android 12 and MIUI 13 in the near future.

With no shortage of 5G smartphones, manufacturers are now turning to tablets as the next set of devices to stick a 5G modem into. The TCL TAB Pro 5G is one of such 5G tablets and it is powered by the Snapdragon 480 chipset.
The Snapdragon 480 is Qualcomm’s cheapest 5G processor and we have seen it appear in a lot of budget, mid-range, and frankly expensive devices too such as the Nokia XR20 which is priced at ₹46,999 ($638) in India. Thankfully, the TCL Tab Pro 5G isn’t as expensive.
The tablet packs a 10.36-inch NXTVISION display with a 1200 x 2000 resolution and HDR. The bezels are not slim but they are fine for a tablet this size. The corners are rounded and should make it comfortable to hold, although a tablet this size is not one you want to be holding in your hands for long.
The Snapdragon 480 5G is paired with 4GB of RAM and there is 64GB of storage that can be expanded via a MicroSD card slot (1TB max). There is a 13MP camera on the back along with an LED flash while the front-facing camera is an 8MP sensor. TCL has added a fingerprint scanner to the tablet and it is buried under the power button. There is also Face Unlock.
The TCL TAB Pro 5G has Hi-Res dual speakers but no audio jack which is disappointing. The tablet runs Android 11 out of the box. It also has support for mmWave and Sub-6GHz 5G networks. There a five pogo pins at the bottom of the device which may be for attaching to a keyboard accessory.
The tablet packs an 8000mAh battery that should last up to 17 hours based on usage. It charges via USB-C and has support for 18W fast charging. It also supports reverse charging
The tablet will be sold exclusively by Verizon for $399 and it is already available for purchase.
MagSafe is not a new feature but this proprietary magnetic charging technology that first appeared on a MacBook Pro back in 2006 is now making its way to more Apple products.
Earlier this week, Apple announced the AirPods 3rd generation and among the features it brings is a MagSafe-compatible case that allows it to be charged using a MagSafe wireless charger. It turns out the 2019 AirPods Pro has also gotten a MagSafe Charging Case.
New orders of the AirPods Pro will ship with a MagSafe Charging Case instead of the regular wireless charging case that shipped with it when it launched in 2019. Apple has also updated its website to reflect the change. At the moment, there is no listing of the MagSafe Charging Case as a separate purchase for those who want.
The AirPods Pro is Apple’s top-of-the-line wireless earbuds. They have Active Noise Cancellation, Adaptive EQ, and Spatial audio with dynamic head tracking. There is an H1 chip with 10 audio cores for real-time noise cancellation and the force sensor on the stem of the earbud will allow users to switch between Active Noise Cancellation and Transparent Mode.
The AirPods Pro is sweat and water-resistant, has a 4.5-hour battery life on a single charge but with the charging case, users can get more than 24 hours. With the new MagSafe case, owners can charge the AirPods using a MagSafe wireless charger. They can also use a regular Qi wireless charger or a lightning charger.
You can order the AirPods Pro with the MagSafe Charging Case on Apple’s website for $249.

Canalys has released its report on India Smartphone Market for Q3 2021. According to the research firm, the shipments dropped by 5% YoY. However, Xiaomi continued to dominate the market. At the same time, the Chinese tech giant tried to increase its share in the premium segment.
Canalys says that vaccination played a key role in the increase of smartphone demand in India in the third quarter of 2021. But unfortunately, the shipments fell short of 5% compared to last year due to the shortage of components.
As the low-end models were in short supply, brands were forced to offer promotions on high-end models to lure in customers. Xiaomi pushed its Mi 11 series heavily to increase its share in the premium smartphone category in India. Apple also offered attractive deals on the iPhone 12 series ahead of the iPhone 13 series launch.
On the other hand, realme took a different approach. It focused more on affordable 5G handsets, and therefore, managed to ship around 1 million units of realme 8 5G. A whopping 70% of the brand’s shipment occurred online. Lastly, Transsion also tried to scale up its sales in the country.
Talking about rankings in terms of shipments, Xiaomi came first with a 24% market share (11.2 million units), followed by Samsung with a 19% share (9.1 million units). Then, vivo acquired third position with a 17% of the market (8.1 million units). It was closely followed by relame with a 16% market share (7.5 million units) and OPPO with a 13% share (6.2 million units).
As far as the whole market is concerned, the demand is said to persist during the upcoming Diwali festive season, in addition to the shortage of supplies. We will have to wait and see how the brands will face the situation.
Huawei has shifted its focus from smartphones to other goods such as smartwatches and laptops following the US ban. It has been expanding its Huawei Watch portfolio with back-to-back releases. And ahead of the upcoming Huawei APAC Autumn Launch event, two more models have been spotted on a certification website – Huawei Watch GT 3 and Watch GT Runner.

The Bluetooth SIG certification website (via MySmartPrice) has confirmed a few details about the Huawei Watch GT 3 series including their model number, moniker, and Bluetooth connectivity standards. The Watch GT 3, which has the model number JPT-B19, will support Bluetooth 5.2.
Huawei will also be debuting the GT Runner watch alongside Watch GT 3 on October 28. It has the model number RUN-B19 and is the sports version of the GT 3. It may thus come with a few sports-related features including better durability.
Apart from this, no other details were revealed by the Bluetooth SIG certification website. Huawei’s event teaser, however, had given us a glimpse into what to expect with the Watch GT 3 and showed that it will have a circular dial.
The Huawei APAC Autumn Launch event will also be lifting the curtains on the Huawei Nova 9 series phones and the Huawei MateBook 14s laptop.
The Huawei Nova 9 phone features a 6.57-inch 120Hz OLED display, a Snapdragon 778G SoC, and a 50MP quad-camera setup. Its battery is sized at 4,300mAh and it seemingly supports 66W fast charging.

Wing, a subsidiary of Google‘s parent company Alphabet, has recently announced that it will be bringing its drone delivery service to the Texas city of Dallas. This marks the first densely populated market that it is launching its service in.
This means that soon you can expect to see drones flying around in Dallas-Fort Worth with small containers that will be filled with products like Tylenol and Band Aids. In other words, Wing is starting its deliveries for small products that will be available in just one Walgreens to the city of Frisco and town of Little Elm. According to the company, it will be using its new operation model to ship small containers parked next to the store act as tiny hangers out of which Wing’s drones will be deployed.
Notably, the Walgreens employees will be trained in how to attach the packages to the company’s packages rather than Wing’s technicians. For those unaware, major tech giants like Amazon and Uber among other brands have been working on launching their own drone delivery services as well. These drones seeks to revolutionize the process of shipping goods and products. As of right now, the technology has mainly focused on small scale experiments like delivering vaccines and blood to remote regions.
In the US, drone delivery has mostly been limited to the smaller towns that are less crowded and less complex. But now, Alphabet owned Wing has seen minor success with its service, with its operations completing its 100,000th delivery while operating in three nations, including the US, Finland, and Australia.
Redmi Watch 2 has been confirmed to launch on October 28 alongside the Redmi Note 11 series in China. Ahead of that, the brand has started teasing the features of its upcoming wearable. The latest teaser reveals the details of the product’s display.
According to the official Redmi Weibo account, the forthcoming Redmi Watch 2 will sport a 1.6-inch AMOLED display with a larger screen-to-body ratio. For comparison, the original Redmi Watch from last year has a smaller 1.4-inch LCD panel.
Further, as per the listing of the smartwatch on JD, it will be available in three colors. These hues are named Elegant Black, Space Blue, and Ivory.
The Redmi Watch 2 is expected to be similar to its predecessor – Redmi Watch. In other words, it will be a fitness tracker disguised as a smartwatch.
It will probably run a customized RTOS like almost every other so-called budget smartwatches in the market. Anyway, it should be a slightly better version than the older model.
We can expect the second-generation Redmi Watch to arrive with features like a heart-rate sensor, SpO2 sensor, GPS, multiple sports modes, sleep monitoring, water resistance, and more.
Having said that, since we are a week away from the official announcement, the company may reveal almost everything about the wearable in the form of teasers in the coming days.

Foxconn is planning to build a new electric vehicle plant in India, Europe, and either North or South America by the year 2024. This marks a major move for the major iPhone assembler who is diversifying its operations into the growing EV market.
According to a NikkeiAsiareport, the news arrives from the chairman of the world’s largest contract electronics maker. In other words, electric vehicles and its emerging industry is a key part of its growth strategy. Young Liu, Chairman of Foxconn stated that “Regional manufacturing will be a key to developing our EV business globally. We will share details of a European facility, followed by India and then the South American market.”
Liu further added that all of its plans will have it partner up with local government or government recommended enterprises. He said that “In Europe, through collaboration, we will work indirectly with German automakers.” Furthermore, a new America factory would also serve the South American market, with the site possibly ending up being located in Mexico, which is now a crucial hub for automotive supply chains and an important manufacturing base for Foxconn.
As of right now, the company is increasing its efforts to enter the EV segment, with a recent acquisition of a manufacturing plant from Lordstown Motors in the US state of Ohio. This plant will be used to produce full size pickup trucks for the American market from April 2022. The company is even building a production facility in Thailan as well, working with the state backed oil and gas company called PTT for the Southeast Asian region.
Huawei Technologies published a patent on Tuesday revealing that it’s working on a new advanced sports posture correction feature for its wearables.
According to the Chinese Intellectual Property Database, the patent is titled “Sports Gesture Recognition Method, Terminal Equipment and Storage Media”, has a publication number of CN113509173A, and was filed back in April 2020 in China (via IT Home).
The feature works by collecting real-time motion data from the accelerometer built into a device. This helps it recognize the motion state of the athlete through the motion data or auxiliary data and analyze it for any incorrect motion postures.
The patent technology aims to provide adequate info to athletes to make them avoid wrong movements. A wearable with this function will be able to not only detect wrong moves but also notify through an alarm or other means about it. It will encourage professionalism in players during workouts and reduce the chances of injuries.
It is unclear if the sports posture correction feature will be making it to any of the Huawei watches given above through an update, or whether it will be shipped with a new smartwatch.

The Galaxy Unpacked Part 2 event was held yesterday and it seemed to focus more on software and Samsung’s ecosystem than anything else. No new hardware was announced – a disappointment once again for those awaiting the Galaxy S21 FE. However, the disappointment was made up for with some pretty cool stuff, starting with a formal One UI 4 unveil, finally.
The latest iteration of Samsung’s custom Android skin has gone big on cross-platform interoperability with remarkable features such as Quick Share that allows seamless transfer between Galaxy devices, and much more.
Quick Share allows transfers of images and other files between devices like the S21 series and Galaxy Book. New photo editing tools, for example, can help crop out an object from a photo and that object can be transferred quite easily to another device, effectively keeping a project in sync between devices. Of course, this is only an example use-case and there’s a sea of possibilities to explore.
Samsung also demonstrated One UI’s ability to set health goals with others with Samsung Health Together, so groups can compete in completing training or exercise goals.
Similar to Apple’s Lost Mode, the new One UI update also expands SmartThings Find to stuff such as the Galaxy Buds and S Pens, leveraging up to 1.5 billion instances of data exchange between Samsung devices in a network to help pinpoint a lost accessory’s location.
Last but not the least, Samsung showed off its Material You implementation for One UI by demonstrating how a simple wallpaper change can set new colors for the interface, giving it an all-new look. This was paired with added Android 12 widgets support, complete with new animations and rounded corners.
One UI 4 is based on Android 12 and is currently undergoing beta testing. It is limited to users from China, Germany, India, Poland, South Korea, the UK, and the US. Only select handsets are eligible for the program currently namely Samsung Galaxy S21, S21 Plus, and S21 Ultra.
The patent in question was first spotted by PatentlyAppleback in March 2020 and showcased future iMac and MacBook Pro with a notch that appeared similar to the notch on iPhones. While the newly launched MacBook Pros feature a notch that houses its front facing camera, TrueTone sensor, and other sensors, it does not offer any form of biometric authentication based system like Face ID.
However, the patent describes the Macs with Face ID support on their notches. As per the patent, this system enabled the device to capture “face gestures and emotions, video chatting, generating emoji, encrypting data, unlocking the computing device, supplementing passwords, differentiating different users, and the like.” In other words, the newly launched MacBook Pros might have been initially slated to support Face ID as well, but it seems that the feature will likely be included in future iterations of the notebook.
