Transsion is a brand present in a few regions only, but it makes amazing phones. One of them is the Tecno Camon 17 Pro, one of the best and most original phones in its price range. Is Tecno able to compete with other mainstream smartphone manufacturers? We think yes if we talk about budget phones like the Camon 17 Pro. And in order to demonstrate it, we decided to publish a specs comparison between two best-buys of the actual market. When it comes to budget phones, Realme and POCO are kings. That is why we chose the Realme 8 and the POCO M3 Pro 5G for this comparison.

Design
My favorite design in this trio is the one of the Realme 8, not only for the look but also because it has a thinner and lighter body, with a thickness of just 8 mm and a weight of 177 grams. Despite that, it has the same battery capacity as the Tecno Camon 17 Pro and the POCO M3 Pro 5G, and it is even more compact thanks to its smaller display, so it is the best for one-handed users. Last but not least, it has an in-display fingerprint reader.
Display
If you need the best display, go for the Realme 8 without thinking twice. Only the Realme 8 is equipped with an AMOLED display, that is why it is able to show more brilliant colors and deep blacks. Further, as said above, it has an in-display fingerprint reader making the authentication more comfortable. And it is not all, as the Realme 8 comes with the HDR10 certification improving the image quality on the streaming platforms and it has a very high peak brightness (it goes up to 1000 nits). Tecno Camon 17 Pro has a very wide display, but it is an IPS panel so the image quality is inferior. The POCO M3 Pro 5G sits in the middle with its 6.5-inch display, but still an IPS panel.
Hardware/Software
The most powerful hardware belongs to the POCO M3 Pro 5G. First of all, it is the only one supporting the 5G connectivity. Further, it has a processor built at 7 nm, a better production process compared to the 12 nm of the Helio G95. Last but not least, the Dimensity 700 is stronger than the Helio G95. On the other hand, you can get more RAM with the Tecno Camon 17 Pro: up to 8 GB. But it lacks 5G support and it has an inferior chipset, especially in terms of power management. All the phones run Android 11.
Camera
The most advanced rear cameras come with Tecno Camon 17 Pro and Realme 8. They have a 64 MP main camera, an 8 MP ultrawide lens, and a pair of 2 MP cameras for macros and depth calculation. The Tecno Camon 17 Pro adds a much better 48 MP front camera including dual LED flash.
Battery
The battery capacity is the same for each device, but the Realme 8 should provide a longer battery life because of its AMOLED display. Further, it comes with a faster 30W charging technology.
Tecno Camon 17 Pro vs Realme 8 vs Xiaomi POCO M3 Pro 5G: Price
Tecno Camon 17 Pro costs Rs. 16,999 / $233, Realme 8 starts from the same price, and POCO M3 Pro starts from Rs. 14,499 / $200. POCO M3 Pro 5G has a higher value for money, but Realme 8 wins the comparison due to its AMOLED display. However, if you do not mind about it, you could find Tecno Camon 17 Pro better due to its amazing front camera.
Samsung is expected to launch a new budget 5G smartphone in the market. It will be called the Galaxy Wide5 and will carry the model number SM-E426S. The smartphone will also debut with the Galaxy F42 5G moniker in some markets. Ahead of its official unveiling, the smartphone has arrived on Geekbench certification, revealing its key specs.
According to the Geekbench portal, the Samsung Galaxy Wide5 a.k.a the Galaxy F42 5G runs on the latest Android 11 out of the box. It scores 558 single-core points and 1513 multi-core points. The listing reveals that the phone will come powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 700 SoC paired with 6GB of RAM.
As said earlier, the phone will debut as a rebranded Galaxy F42 5G. If it is believed to be the same, then it will have the same specs as the Galaxy F42 5G. The Samsung Galaxy F42 5G was recently spotted on Google’s Play Console listing.
The smartphone has an Infinity V display with an FHD+ resolution. The screen will have an exact resolution of 1080 x 2009 pixels. It is touted to feature a side-facing fingerprint scanner for added security. Rumors reveal that it will come in a Blue color variant.
The Chinese market has seen some significant changes in the last few years. Huawei which used to be the market leader is no longer in the top five. Following a poor second quarter, its worst in nine years, a new report for the month of July has surfaced and it too brings new changes.
The report which is by Counterpoint Research is for the month of July 2021(China), and it puts Vivo at the top with a market share of 24%, an increase of 1% from last quarter. OPPO takes the second spot with a market share of 20% while Xiaomi holds on to the third position with a 15% market share.
Things get more interesting as former Huawei subsidiary, Honor, overtakes Apple to grab the fourth position with a market share of 13%. That is nothing short of impressive considering Honor wasn’t in the top five at the end of the second quarter. Apple now sits at the fifth spot with a market share of 12% while Huawei comes in at sixth with an 8% market share.
A further breakdown reveals that Apple and Huawei lead the premium smartphone category with devices priced over $900. They also lead the category for phones priced between $600 to 800. However, for devices in the $200 to $300 category and $300 to $600 category, Vivo and OPPO are the leaders. For more budget phones priced below $400, OPPO is first while Honor comes in second. Xiaomi is the market leader for devices in the sub $100 category.
The tablet market has picked up after a few years of declining sales, and now almost every manufacturer wants a piece of the pie including those that never cared for the tablet space before. UMIDIGI is one of such new players and it has teased the arrival of its very first tablet.
The Chinese manufacturer has announced that its first Android tablet is coming soon and it will launch as the UMIDIGI A11 Tab. The teasers give us an early look at the design and also provide some details of the device.
As seen in the image above, the UMIDIGI A11 Tab will have a pretty large display. While the size is unknown, our guess is that it is about 11-inches in size. What we do know is that the screen has a 2K resolution. It also has curved corners and is surrounded by moderately sized bezels of equal thickness. The tablet is shown to have its front-facing camera on the left side bezel if you were to hold the device in portrait mode.
The back of the tab appears to be made of metal and the antenna lines add a bit of detail to the overall appearance of the device. The corners are curved which should make it comfortable to hold for a long while. There is a single camera on the back and it sits in a small housing along with an LED flash. In landscape mode, the power button is on your right while the volume control buttons are at the top. While there are four grilles – two on each side – we can’t confirm the UMIDIGI A11 Tab has four speakers.
UMIDIGI is running a giveaway for the yet-to-be-announced tablet and the promotional poster reveals that the A11 Tab will have a detachable keyboard case. The keyboard is shown to have a touchpad unlike that of Xiaomi’s Mi Pad 5 series.
UMIDIGI is yet to announce a release date for the tablet. Once it does, we will be sure to inform you, but before then keep your eyes peeled for more details about the device.
Unbridled by the constraints of traditional ground infrastructure, Starlink has the potential to deliver high-speed broadband internet to remote locations. With an aim to deliver services internationally, Starlink is now operational as a beta for the early birds and is continuously expanding. The only downside being in beta is the internet speed but it looks like that will be taken care of very soon. Responding to a query, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has claimed that Starlink satellite internet service will have the capability of data transfer as high as the speed of light. SpaceX plans to deploy laser-equipped satellites into orbit that will play a major role in eliminating the reliance on ground stations.
At present, the Starlink network relies on a dish, satellites, and ground stations. From what it looks like, the company is aiming to get rid of these ground stations that have proved to be a hindrance to fast data transfers due to the long time they take to communicate with the satellites. With lasers, the transmission speed, as Musk claims, is expected to be around 40% faster than what it usually is in optical fibers. As a result, we might witness blazing fast internet transfer capabilities without having the need to touch the ground.
Processing is not an issue. Lasers links alleviate ground station constraints, so data can go from say Sydney to London through space, which is ~40% faster speed of light than fiber & shorter path.
Also, no need for ground stations everywhere. Arctic will have great bandwidth!
Considering Musk’s statement and calculating the speed based on the existing speed with optical fiber, Starlink will be able to transfer data packets at 180,832 miles per second and it turns out that this speed is approximately 97% of the speed of light in a vacuum.
Musk has ensured that Starlink will soon cut down the ground station element from the whole of Arctic and provide enough bandwidths as well. Considering the fast-paced developments in the SpaceX camp, this doesn’t seem far-fetched. SpaceX plans to further increase the data capacity by three folds, reduce latencies to 50ms, and enhance coverage to polar regions with the help of the company’s second-generation satellites.
SpaceX is also accelerating the launch of a little above 1,200 Starlink satellites over the next few months but may face a little delay due to rocket oxidizer shortages and a tedious satellite manufacturing process.
The Realme 8s 5G is one of many new products Realme has planned for release this month. The new smartphone will launch as the first phone powered by MediaTek’s new Dimensity 810 processor. Ahead of the launch, Realme’s CEO has shared a photo of the phone.
The Realme 8s 5G is shown in blue in the photo and while we can only see the rear side, there are a number of details it reveals. For starters, the Realme 8s 5G will have triple rear cameras even though the camera array is set up to look like there are four sensors. This is the same design as that of the Realme 8 5G.
We can also see the indentation on the side of the frame where the power button is positioned, which confirms that the Realme 8s 5G will have a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. The volume buttons are on the left side of the frame.
In this photo, the phone is shown in blue with a light streak that runs from the top to the bottom of the phone. However, we expect there will be other colors at launch.
Apart from having a Dimensity 810 processor, it has been reported that the Realme 8s 5G will have a 6.5-inch screen with a 90Hz refresh rate. The processor will be paired with 6GB or 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of storage.
Xiaomi has a launch scheduled for September 15 and one of the products expected to be announced at the global event is the Mi Pad 5/Pad 5. While there is still no confirmation the tablet will be unveiled on that day, we can confirm that the new tablet will indeed get a global release thanks to an unboxing video that has been uploaded on the internet.
The video was uploaded on Instagram by the Belarusian store NSV.by. The store has also put up a post on the social media platform that says the Mi Pad 5 is now available for pre-order.
In the video which was reposted on Twitter by Xiaomiui, we see the Xiaomi Pad 5 will come in a white box just like the Chinese variant. However, this box is significantly thicker than the one that is sold in China, thanks to the included accessories such as a charger and USB cable.
The film on top of the tablet shows a few specs such as a WQHD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, quad spealers, a Snapdragon 860 processor, and a dual-cell 8720mAh battery. The video also shows that the global version of the Mi Pad 5 will be available in white and black colorways.
The store has put a price tag of BYN 1199 (~$479) on the tablet and this gets you the variant with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. This is significantly higher than the CNY 1999 (~$310) price tag in China. We will have to wait until the global launch to know if the official price will be lower.
At the end of July, Huawei announced the HUAWEI P50 series. Unlike its predecessors, the new lineup is not only limited to 4G but also comes with a Qualcomm SoC. Now, as per a reliable tipster, the company will be using more Qualcomm chipsets in the future.
HUAWEI P50
According to Digital Chat Station, Huawei has got access to two other Qualcomm Snapdragon SoCs other than Snapdragon 888. These are Snapdragon 778G and the upcoming SM8450 (aka Snapdragon 898).
Just like the HUAWEI P50 series phones, the handsets using these chipsets will also lack 5G connectivity. That’s because Huawei will be getting a special 4G version due to the US sanctions. Unfortunately, the leaker does not mention which HUAWEI phones will be using these two SoCs.
Going by the Chinese tech giant’s now disrupted smartphone release cycle, the 4G version of Snapdragon 778G might power the rumored HUAWEI nova 9 series. On the other hand, the 4G variant of the unreleased SM8450 could drive the delayed HUAWEI Mate 50 series.
As of now, we don’t have any solid proof for this claim. However, since most of the information shared by Digital Chat Station has been accurate so far, the new details posted by him on Weibo could also be indeed true.
Last but not least, the leaker also says that Huawei might also use MediaTek chipsets, however, the deal is yet to be finalized.
Lately, Xiaomi has been working on improving MIUI, which is not only the company’s mobile operating system based on Android but also its first-ever product. This year itself, the Chinese tech giant has released two new minor updates, namely MIUI 12.5 and MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition. Additionally, it is also working on multiple other features. One of these latest features is ‘MIUI Pure Mode’.
Xiaomi has started recruiting testers for a new feature called ‘MIUI Pure Mode’ in China. This is an optional feature that helps users in protecting themselves from malicious applications.
The company says that due to the open nature of Android, users can easily become a victim of an attack through hostile applications. The smartphone maker explains that 40% of apps installed by MIUI users have never passed its security audit. Also, 10% have been recognized as potential risks.
To fix this, Xiaomi is introducing MIUI Pure Mode. When this feature is enabled, users cannot install apps from external sources. Also, it blocks any installation happening in the background without the consent of users.
Unlike Apple, Xiaomi lets users disable this feature. Hence, they can install apps from other sources if they want to.
As of now, it’s not known when MIUI Pure Mode will make its way to the stable channel. Most importantly, there’s also no information regarding its availability in international markets.
MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition is currently the latest version of Xiaomi’s mobile operating system based on Android. The company unveiled it last month and even started rolling it out to the first batch of devices in the next few days. Now, this version of MIUI has reached international markets as well. The first phones to get it are Mi 11X and POCO F3.
POCO F3
The Redmi K40 was one of the first handsets to receive the MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update in China. Hence, it’s not surprising to learn that the international variants of this smartphone called Mi 11X and POCO F3 are the first to get this update outside mainland China.
The latest software update for Mi 11X arrives with build number V12.5.3.0.RKHINXM. Since this device is exclusive to India, this is the only build available for this handset.
On the other hand, the POCO F3 is sold in multiple markets. Hence, it has many regional MIUI builds. At present, the new MIUI version is live for the ‘Global’ variant of the phone with build number V12.5.3.0.RKHMIXM. It should be available for other regional variants in the coming days.
Xiaomi Mi 11X
Having said that, like any other OTA system update, the MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition for Mi 11X and POCO F3 is also being rolled out in batches. Hence, the complete rollout might take some time.
After marking decent success in March 2021 with Red Magic 6 and 6 Pro, Nubia aims to level up the game with an all-new addition to its portfolio. The company, via its official social media handles, has been on a streak of teasing the upcoming Red Magic 6S Pro features ahead of its September 6 launch. A 120W air-cooled charging with a GaN charger is what we saw recently and now, the company goes on to confirm that the device will also feature 500Hz AirTriggers, along with a 10000mAh power bank and a Fly Wise G1 Handle.
These triggers, as can be seen from the poster, will respond to touches with a sample rate of up to 500Hz. This will come in handy while playing games. The ability to customize the controls makes it a perfect gaming companion.
Well, there’s more to it than just that. Nubia has also teased that an additional Red Magic Fly Wise G1 handle to supplement the gaming experience. The product itself has a rocker function and a side button. The product is expected to replace the rocker function of the touch screen on the left side of the game for more precise control. The weight of the product has also been kept on the lower side and weighs only 40g.
Additionally, Red Magic 6S Pro will be accompanied by the Red Magic 10000mAh power bank. The overall aesthetics gets more appealing with an armor-shaped structure with a Red Magic logo on the front and is expected to support luminescence. The official teaser also confirms that the product has a digital display that shows real-time power. As mentioned in the description, the mobile power supply will have a dual interface and support a 20W plus 22.5W output capability, which clearly is significantly slower for a device that packs a 120W fast charger.
All these add-ons will be launching alongside the smartphone on September 6. Major highlights of the device have already been released and can be found here.
All eyes are on Qualcomm‘s next flagship chipset – Snapdragon 898 (SM8450), which will be powering a bunch of upcoming premium devices. It has already been confirmed that the chipset is going to be manufactured using Samsung’s 4nm process and will have a 20% increment in performance. Well, to corroborate the earlier claims, we now have the first Geekbench scores and it runs on an imminent flagship from Vivo with model name, Vivo V2102A.
With a score of 720 for single-core and 1919 for multi-core, Snapdragon 898 appears to be on top of the realm in this fierce competition. If we go by Geekbench benchmarks for multi-core, Snapdragon 898 will have a comfortable win over the others. Among other specifications are a dual Part 3400 architecture, and an Adreno 730 GPU. The current run-point version, though, is the same as the original SM8350.
Additionally, Snapdragon 898 chipset has a total of 8 cores, and for now, the main frequency appears to be just 1.78Ghz, the renowned leakster Digital Chat Station is hopeful that these numbers will certainly rise as soon as the mass production kicks off. And with improvements this radical, expect power consumption to be on the higher side, too.
As learned earlier, the production will be split between Samsung and TSMC, and it appears that the Plus variant of the Snapdragon 898 processor may hit the market as early as the second quarter of 2022. Interestingly, Vivo will be among the first few brands to launch a smartphone powered by Snapdragon 898. We will have more information in this regard when the processor gets officially unveiled in December Qualcomm Summit.
It’s been a while since we heard about the Samsung Galaxy M22 smartphone. Last time, we saw the phone’s renders revealing its key details. The smartphone was also certified on NBTC and Bluetooth SIG certification. Now, the Galaxy M22 was spotted on Samsung’s Russia website.
Samsung has already created a landing page for the smartphone. The device has the model number SM-M225FV/DS and it confirms its existence. Unfortunately, it doesn’t reveal anything else other than this. But, the phone with the same model number emerged on Geekbench, NBTC, and other listings. Hence, we do have plenty of its details.
The device scored 374 single-core points and 1361 multi-core points on the Geekbench 5. It was spotted with 4GB of RAM and MediaTek’s Helio G80 SoC. It runs on Android 11 out of the box and is expected to have Samsung’s OneUI on top of it.
The phone’s FCC certification revealed that it will support 25W fast charging support. However, the phone is touted to ship with a slower 15W fast charger in the box. In terms of battery, it is expected to pack a 5,000mAh battery cell.
The smartphone is expected to come with a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED display sporting a 1600 x 720 pixels resolution. It may come with a 90Hz high refresh rate. It will feature a quadruple-camera system with a 48MP main lens, an 8MP ultra-wide sensor, a 2MP macro lens, and lastly a 2MP depth sensor.
Considering that the phone is listed on Samsung’s official website, we can expect its debut to be imminent.
Xiaomi‘s partner Segway-Ninebot has been relatively quiet this year with just a few new products released so far. Perhaps, that is because the company is busy cooking up an interesting product. The company has now unveiled a new robot lawnmower dubbed Segway Navimow.
The robot mower is touted as the world’s first ultra-quiet boundary intelligent lawn mowing robot. The robot eliminates the stressful procedure involved in manually pushing a mower. Even a self-propelled or riding lawn mower will need a human in the driver’s seat. But this robot mower can do the job by itself once a path is set for it via the app. It will also improve the efficiency of the mowing by up to six times.
Navimow adopts the EFLS (Exact Fusion Locating System) fusion positioning system, using the satellite signal of the global positioning system, through RTK (real-time differential positioning) to achieve centimeter-level outdoor precise positioning, can independently plan the optimal working path, and easily have a carpet-like level Beautiful lawn garden.
In addition, Navimow also integrates a variety of other sensor information to assist positioning, such as inertial navigation, odometer, geomagnetic information, differential barometer, etc., and it can operate stably even when the satellite signal is temporarily weak.
Its original blade stop technology can better protect playful cute babies or pets. It is also equipped with an ultrasonic sensor, which can perceive the surrounding environment in real-time, avoid obstacles safely and avoid collisions.
Segway stated that the highest decibel when Navimow is in use is only 54 decibels, which is lower than most 60 decibels in the industry and 4 decibels lower than the currently lowest level of 58 decibels in the market.
According to different mowing areas, Navimow provides four models to choose from, corresponding to a range of 500-3000 square meters of lawn. The four models in the range are the Segway Navimow H500E, H800E, H1500E, and H3000E.
The Segway Navimow is expected to go on sale next year. The H500E is priced at €1,199, the H800E will retail for €1,499 while the H1500E and H3000E will sell for €1,999, and €2,499 respectively.
Lenovo is indeed benefiting from the work-from-home strategy that has been deployed the world over to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19. The company has seen a spike in its market share and is looking to grab more. The Chinese company has launched a new laptop – the IdeaPad Slim 5 Pro for the Indian market, touted as the world’s third-largest market.
The Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 Pro adopts an ultra-thin build and is available in a 14-inch 2.2K and 16-inch WQXGA IPS anti-glare display versions. The two sizes come with a 16:10 aspect ratio, 100 percent sRGB color gamut and narrow bezels on all four sides.
