Xiaomi had unveiled the new CyberDog robot a couple of weeks ago during a product launch event. Now, the company has officially announced earlier today (1st September 2021) that it will be showcasing the four legged robot in over 100 Mi Home Stores across its home country of China.

The Chinese tech giant shared the news regarding the CyberDog on the Mi Home Weibo account, with image posters. Looking at these promotional posters, it is clear that the company aims on unveiling its latest product in areas like provincial capitals, capitals, and municipalities in China first. For those unaware, the CyberDog is a bio inspired quadruped robot is powered by NVIDIA’s Jetson Xavier NX AI Supercomputer for Embedded and Edge Systems paired with 128GB of SSD storage.

Furthermore, the new robot also houses a number of cameras, microphones, and sensors on the head of the robot that gives it spatial perception capabilities that is comparable to the human eye. This includes AI cameras, binocular ultra wide cameras and Intel’s RealSense D450 depth camera module that enables it to avoid obstacles as it navigates its way around. It even sports SLAM mapping and auto tracking.

While a similar quadruped robot called Spot from Boston Dynamic sells for a whopping 74,500 US Dollars, Xiaomi is offering its robot for just 9,999 Yuan (roughly 1,540 US Dollars). In other words, it makes this product significantly more affordable than the US made robot.

Samsung has been pushing the foldable smartphones in the market and the strategy might be working for the South Korean giant as it is witnessing record bookings for the newly launched Galaxy Z Fold3 and Galaxy Z Flip3 phones.

Now, it seems that the company is now looking to expand the foldable technology to the laptop segment as well, starting with the Samsung Galaxy Book Fold 17. The device was showcased as a concept at SID 2021 but it’s reportedly being developed by Samsung.

Samsung Galaxy Book Fold 17 Concept Showcased at SID 2021

The report, coming from @UniverseIce, confirms the Galaxy Book Fold 17 moniker for the upcoming device but nothing much is currently known about this product. It is likely to come with a 17-inch foldable display.

We expect the actual product to look a bit different compared to what the company showcased at SID 2021 earlier this year. The concept device showcased had very thin bezels around the screen, and an Under-Display Camera (UDC).

As noted, currently there’s not much known about the Samsung Galaxy Book Fold 17 but if the device is indeed real and set to launch soon, we expect to know more about its features and specifications, as well as pricing and availability details in the coming weeks.

Last year, Lenovo had launched the ThinkPad X1 Fold laptop, featuring a 13.3-inch foldable OLED display with a screen resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels. It was first showcased at CES 2019 as “the world’s first foldable PC.”

Samsung has officially teased the arrival of One UI 4.0 beta based on Android 12 for the Galaxy S21 series. It’ll come with several major user interface changes, including updated icons and colors, and the Material You element of Android 12. It may also bring optimizations to Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and Exynos 2100, as well as improvements to Samsung Knox and Samsung Notes App.

The company has been making user-friendly changes to its custom user interface and has confirmed that it will remove the advertisements from its stock applications that come pre-installed with Samsung phones. Although the company has already removed ads from the Weather app, major changes are expected to be available with One UI 4.

Now, the company has officially announced that the industrial and commercial registration of the Xiaomi Automobile Co. Ltd. has been completed. The firm has been set up with registration capital of 10 billion yuan and Lei Jun, founder, Chairman, and CEO of the Xiaomi Group is leading this new entity.

It’s not yet done with the hiring process and is looking to invite more people to join the team.

The Chinese company has been in talks with several car manufacturers for a partnership but nothing has been materialized so far. But in the recent development, it was reported that Xiaomi is looking to acquire a stake in China Evergrande’s Electric Vehicle unit.

A few weeks ago, Lei Jun visited the SAIC headquarters, adding the company to the list of other auto manufacturers that he visited, including BYD, Great Wall, Wuling, and some other well-known car-making companies.

In the past few months, Xiaomi’s management has had 85 industry visits, in-depth exchanges with more than 200 automotive industry veterans, four internal management discussions, and two formal board meetings.

Xiaomi is aiming to offer high-quality smart electric vehicles to its users globally to enjoy ubiquitous smart life, says Lei Jun. Although the initial investment of the company is about 10 billion yuan, it is set to invest around 60 billion yuan over the next 10 years as the business grows.

Sep 1, 2021

Google has already unveiled its next-generation Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro flagship smartphones and has confirmed that the devices will get launched in the fall this year, without revealing the exact timeframe.

Recently, it was reported that the devices will get launched on 13th September, just a day before the Apple iPhone 13 series launch. Now, Jon Prosser refutes that and claims that the Google Pixel 6 lineup will launch on 28th October.

He also adds that both the upcoming smartphones — Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will be available for pre-orders from 19th October and will start shipping on the day of its launch, which is set on 28th October.

It’s important to note that the launch date here refers to the date when the devices will start shipping and be available for purchase. It is not yet known when Google will host its event revealing more details about the Pixel 6 series, including pricing and availability.

Although the date for the Pixel 6 series launch event is not yet known, it’s likely that the device could be officially announced on the day company begins taking pre-orders. So, the date may be 19th October or somewhere around it. We will get to know more details pretty soon as the launch date nears.

So far, Google has revealed some key details about the smartphones even though the full specifications sheet hasn’t been shared. The Pixel 6 comes with a 6.4-inch Full HD+ display offering a 90Hz refresh rate while the Pro model has a 6.7-inch QHD+ display offering a 120Hz refresh rate.

The standard model features a dual-camera setup on the back while the Pixel 6 Pro has a triple-camera setup — a wide-angle lens, an ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 4x telephoto lens. The photography performance is expected to top the charts as the chipset is said to be focused on photo output and uses artificial intelligence along with machine learning.

The highlight of the Pixel 6 series remains its processor as the phones will come powered by Google’s own chipset — Tensor, which the company says is made especially for Pixel devices. Apart from on-device AI and ML capability, the chip is also claimed to have significant improvement in translation, captioning, and dictation. The chipset is likely to be an unreleased Samsung Exynos 9855 SoC.

Huawei is bringing a cool new feature to the Watch 3 series. The smartwatch will be getting gesture controls highlighted by three smart gestures. Users can turn on the gesture control feature by heading to the application menu and click on Settings> Accessibility> Gestures to turn on the smart gesture feature.

The three smart gestures that will be available to users include raising your wrist and rubbing your fingers on the screen to open the Alipay QR code for contactless payment. The second one is making a fist and releasing it to answer an incoming call and finally, flipping the wrist to mute the call instantly is the third gesture. These are pretty cool and we expect the company to add more gesture control options in the future.

The Huawei Watch 3 series comprising of the Watch 3 and Watch 3 Pro was released in June this year after a hiatus since 2017 when the Watch 2 was released. The four-year wait was apparently worth it as the watch comes with several interesting features including a 3D rotating crown as well as a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 466 X 466 pixels, a pixel density of up to 326PPI, a maximum brightness of 1000nit, and a refresh rate of 60Hz. The watch also features a stainless steel body, a 3D large-curvature mirror design, a 450mAH battery and is available in different strap options.

It runs on Huawei’s homegrown HarmonyOS 2 which is availing users of this cool new feature. Apart from gesture control, the watch also features 100+ sports modes, supports temperature, heart rate monitoring, fall detection, sedentary reminder among others. You also get support for remote camera shutter, music control, remote car control, smart home control, etc.

There is no release schedule yet for this update but since the watch is sold in markets outside China, we expect this feature to be available on the global version too.
