Earlier this month, realme confirmed that it will be launching the realme 8i alongside the realme 8s in India. Ahead of this announcement, the realme 8s had already leaked in full glory. Now, we also get to learn more about the realme 8i.

Reliable leaker @Onleaks (Steve Hemmerstoffer) has partnered with Digit India to reveal the upcoming realme 8i. The tipster has not only exposed the design of the smartphone via renders but also its specs.

According to the renders, the forthcoming realme 8i will be identical to the other models in the lineup in terms of design. In other words, it will have a matrix camera array design. However, unlike the expensive 8 Pro, the 8i will have a glossy finish but will retain the plastic build.

Talking about specifications, the realme 8i will be the world’s first smartphone with a MediaTek Helio G96 chipset. It will sport a 6.59-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a punch-hole at the top left corner.

The device will have a triple rear camera setup consisting of a 50MP primary sensor, a 2MP macro sensor, and a 2MP depth sensor. It will also have a 16MP shooter for selfies and video calls.

Interestingly, the leakster says that it will only have 4GB RAM and 128GB UFS 2.2 storage. But we believe there could be a higher RAM variant as well.

The remaining features of the handset include a USB Type-C port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, a 5,000mAh battery, unknown fast charging, 8.6mm thickness, and 194g weight.

Unfortunately, though we know almost everything about the realme 8i, the phone’s launch date is still a mystery.

OPPO Reno6 vs Realme GT Master vs Samsung Galaxy A52s: Specs Comparison

A few days ago, the Realme GT Master Edition was officially announced for the global market, including Europe. Next month, the OPPO Reno6 5G will hit the global European market as well. The Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G, an upgrade of the Galaxy A52 5G, made its debut a few days ago as well. These three devices share a lot of things in common: they come with similar specifications and they are sold in the same price range. That is the reason why we decided to publish a comparison to highlight the differences.

OPPO Reno6 vs Realme GT Master Edition vs Samsung Galaxy A52s

	OPPO Reno6 5G	Realme GT Master Edition	Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G
DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT	156.8 x 72.1 x 7.6 mm, 182 g	159.2 mm x 73.5 mm x 8.7 mm, 180 g	159.9 x 75.1 x 8.4 mm, 189 g

BATTERY	4300 mAh, fast charging 65W	4300 mAh, fast charging 65W	4500 mAh, fast charging 25W
ADDITIONAL FEATURES	Dual SIM slot, 5G	Dual SIM slot, 5G	Dual SIM slot, 5G, IP67 certification

Design

While the OPPO Reno6 5G and the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G come with traditional designs including a plastic body, the Realme GT Master Edition has unique aesthetics thanks to leather back designed by the known Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa. That is the reason why, if you want the most interesting design, you should go for the Realme GT Master Edition. On the other hand, OPPO Reno6 has a thinner and lighter body, while the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is the only one to offer water and dust resistance with the IP67 certification.

Display

All of these phones are equipped with a Super AMOLED panel sporting a Full HD+ resolution. The Realme GT Master Edition and the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G have a higher refresh rate with a max of 120 Hz, while OPPO Reno6 5G stops at 90 Hz. The Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G has a slightly wider panel with a diagonal of 6.5 inches (instead of 6.43 inches) and it comes with the Gorilla Glass 5 protection by Corning. All the phones come with an in-display fingerprint reader.

Specs & Software

These devices are powered by upper-midrange hardware departments. The Snapdragon 778G mobile platform found on the Realme GT Master Edition and the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is a bit more powerful than the Mediatek Dimensity 900 found on the OPPO Reno6. But the OPPO Reno6 is the only one to offer up to 12 GB of RAM, so consider it in case you need a long-lasting phone for your productivity. OPPO Reno6 5G and Realme GT Master Edition have similar user interfaces based on Android 11 (Realme UI is based on ColorOS), while Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is totally different due to the One UI.

Camera

The Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is the most advanced camera phone of this comparison. Its 64 MP main camera is the only one to support OIS. Further, the secondary ultrawide camera is better than OPPO Reno6 and Realme GT Master Edition with its 12 MP resolution. You also get a better 5 MP macro camera and an additional 5 MP depth sensor.

Battery

The Samsung Galaxy A52s should provide a longer battery life because it sports a bigger battery (4500 mAh vs 4300 mAh), but OPPO Reno6 and Realme GT Master Edition support faster charging (65W vs 25W).

Price

Overall, Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G is a more interesting phone, but its price tag is higher and it will be surely higher once it hits the global market. The Realme GT Master Edition has the best value for money since it is priced at less than €400/$470, while OPPO Reno6 5G will begin at €500/$587. Note that these are just the European prices: the listing prices vary depending on the market.

Nothing ear (1) next sale in India set for August 31 via Flipkart

Aug 24, 2021

UK-based consumer tech company Nothing finally took the wraps off the Nothing ear (1) earbuds last month and the earbuds went on the first sale a couple of weeks back. The product was sold out in less than two minutes with just 4800 units made available.

Nothing has now announced that the earbuds will go on sale again via Flipkart on August 31st at 12 noon. Just like the first sale, buyers will get access to free 6 months subscription to Gaana Plus music streaming services. In addition, holders of ICICI Bank Credit cards who make the purchase using their credit cards will get an instant discount of Rs. 500.

The Nothing ear (1) is priced at Rs. 5,999 (~$80) for the Indian market. This is a fairly decent price tag and a further Rs. 500 discount is sure attractive. Unfortunately, Nothing hasn’t disclosed the number of units that will be available for the next sale. We also expect the product to be sold out in minutes in the next round of sales. As a reminder, the Nothing ear (1) adopts a transparent design that exposes the internal components such as the microphones, magnets and circuit board. The earbud utilizes an 11.6 mm driver and brings support for Active Noise Cancellation as well as Bluetooth 5.2. In terms of durability, the ear (1) delivers up to 5.7 hours of music playback on a single charge and that is extended up to 34 hours if the charging case is factored in. The case features ultra-fast charging and supports Qi wireless charging protocol.

Huawei will launch an All-in-One PC, desktop printer, and Nova 9 series next month

Huawei has taken a more serious approach to its PC business since the trouble with its mobile phone business took a turn for the worse. Last year, it announced its first desktop computer, the MateStation B515. It has also released a couple of standalone monitors, with the latest ones being the MateView and MateView GT. Now, a new leak has revealed it will announce two new computer products next month.

According to serial leaker of Huawei-related news, Teme (@RODENT950), Huawei will launch an All-in-One PC and a printer next month. The tweet includes an image of the All-in-One and it looks just like the MateView monitor.

This is not the first time we have heard of a Huawei All-in-One PC. Back in December of 2020, it was reported that it had been granted a patent for the computer. Now it is ready to announce it after nine months.

New All-in-one PC and printer coming next month. Also new Nova 9 series phones. #Huawei pic.twitter.com/yZuTu2MS7Z

— Teme (特米)😷 (@RODENT950) August 23, 2021

Huawei will also announce a desktop printer along with the computer. While this will also be its first desktop computer, it isn’t its first printer. Back in 2018, Huawei announced a portable photo printer that uses ZINK inkless printing technology. With its first desktop printer, Huawei will be going against established brands such as HP, Canon, and Epson.

The leaker has also reaffirmed that the successor to the Nova 8 series is also on the way. An earlier report from last week said the Nova 9 series may launch in mid-September. The new Nova 9 series is coming 9 months after the Nova 8 5G and Nova 8 Pro 5G were announced, however, it may not have 5G like its predecessors.

Huawei has had to resort to launching phones with 4G processors as a result of the ban. Only a few devices with 5G have been announced and they usually arrive later than the 4G models.

Lenovo Mobile GM confirms Legion Phone 3 Pro will have a Snapdragon 898 processor

Aug 24, 2021

Lenovo made its entry into the gaming smartphone market with the launch of the Legion Phone Pro/Legion Phone Duel last year. This year, it followed it up with the Legion Phone 2 Pro a.k.a. Legion Phone Duel 2. Now it has revealed details of its successor which will launch as the Legion Phone 3 Pro.

The General Manager of Lenovo China Mobile Division, Chen Jin, took to Weibo earlier today to talk about Qualcomm’s upcoming processor with part number SM8450. Multiple reports have revealed that it will launch as the Snapdragon 898.

The post mentioned that the chipset, which will power the Legion Phone 3 Pro, will bring a new flagship GPU with a significantly upgraded performance. He also claims that the flagship phone will feature industry-leading fine-tuned performance.

Mr. Jin also took the chance to market the Legion Phone 2 Pro. He stated that the Snapdragon 888-powered phone is now discounted and worth buying.

It is also worth noting that it appears Lenovo does not plan on launching another gaming phone this year even though its competitors are planning to or have already launched refreshed models powered by the Snapdragon 888 Plus processor.

The Snapdragon 898 should launch by the end of the year going by Qualcomm’s previous announcements. The chipset should be announced at the annual Qualcomm summit and if all goes well, we may even see the first smartphones powered by the processor get announced before the year ends.

Samsung will be the foundry in charge of producing the 4nm processor. Leaks have revealed it will have a Kryo 760 CPU, an Adreno 730 GPU, Spectra 680 ISP, and a Snapdragon X65 5G modem.

Vivo V2130A & V2131A with Dimensity 900 chipset spotted on Google Play Console

By

Aug 24, 2021

A Vivo smartphone powered by MediaTek Dimensity 900 processor has been spotted on the Google Play console, pointing to an imminent launch of the device. This is coming after the recent certification of the Vivo X70, which sources had predicted was to be the next smartphone offering by the company.

The model number of the device spotted on Google Play Console however indicates that the imminent model that could be released soon will be from the V21 series. It has a model number of V2130A, and together with the Dimensity 900 chipset, points to the direction of the V21 series.

Some specs details for the incoming Vivo smartphone include 8GB of RAM, Android 11 operating system from the box, full HD+ screen resolution, a conventional panel with a punch-hole screen. Going by the nature of the Dimensity 900 chipset, which is below Qualcomm Snapdragon 870, we expect the Vivo V21 upcoming smartphone to be a mid-ranger.

There is no official statement by Vivo yet at this time. A Google Play Console listing always indicates the imminent release of a device, although the fine details about the device name and other specifications could be absent. Subsequent information from the OEM and even leaks will possibly unmask the device listed on the Google Play Console.

For now, we have no information on the pricing, availability, and other specs of the Vivo smartphone with model number V2130A.

China Mobile U-Magic 30e 5G with Snapdragon 480 launched for ¥1599 (~$247)

By

Aug 24, 2021

One of China’s three major carriers China Mobile earlier this year unveiled a new smartphone brand dubbed U-Magic. The telecoms giant has now launched a new 5G mobile phone under the series. The device is dubbed China Mobile U-Magic 30e 5G.

The U-Magic 30e 5G features a 6.5-inch high-definition display with a waterdrop notch at the top. The mobile phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 480 5G chipset which we have seen on premium mid-rangers like the Redmi Note 10 JE, Maimang 10 SE 5G, Moto G Stylus 5G and others. The processor is an 8nm chipset with CPU consisting of two 2.0GHz A76 large cores + six 1.8GHz A55 small cores. It is also the first Qualcomm chip to support dual 5G and integrates the Adreno 619 GPU.

At the back, there is a dual camera setup consisting of a 13-megapixels main shooter and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. The device crams a massive 5000mAh battery and it has support for 22.5W fast charge. The U-Magic 3e 5G runs on a deeply customized version of Android 11 which is said to be similar to Huawei’s EMUI OS.

The phone will be available in three color options: Moonlight Silver, Magic Sea Blue, and Elegant Black. In terms of the price, the U-Magic 3e 5G will retail for 1599 yuan (~$247). The device is presently on pre-sale while the first sale will kick-off on September 1 in China via major China Telecom business halls, authorized retailers and authorized e-commerce platforms. A MediaTek-powered version is also expected to be launched in due course.

Redmi 10 Hands-on: Budget segment gets a level up

By

Paco Zheng

Aug 24, 2021

Redmi 10 got a silent launch earlier this month, with Malaysia being the first market to get the device. However, this budget device will be launched in more markets in the coming weeks, including India (confirmed as Redmi 10 Prime). And those who can’t wait to get their hands on this device, you can already buy the Redmi 10 as low as $149 from Aliexpress.

Redmi 10 Hands-on

The Redmi 10 unit we’ve got is the Carbon Gray color variant. But the phone is available in two more colors, Pebble White and Sea Blue. The gray color looks very premium for a phone in this price range and is a safe bet for those who don’t know which color to choose. However, we feel the gradient Sea Blue shade will also be an interesting option for the Redmi 10, especially for those who want to stand out.

The Redmi 10 comes with solid upgrades in the design department, including a new camera module design inspired by its much more expensive siblings. Despite its plastic body, the phone doesn’t feel cheap and looks way more premium than a $150 smartphone. However, in time, the back has a tendency to attract fingerprint smudges.

It weighs 181 grams and is under 9mm in thickness. So it’s pretty easy to hold and carry around, which is a big plus considering it has a 5000mAh battery inside.

The Redmi 10 comes with a 6.5-inch 2400 x 1080 LCD panel with AdaptiveSync refresh rate (45Hz, 60Hz, 90Hz), and a centered punch-hole. Yes, this budget device gets a high refresh rate display panel that supports both Reading mode 3.0 and Sunlight display.

The new Redmi budget device is powered by the MediaTek Helio G88 chip with up to 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. It runs MIUI 12.5.1 based on Android 11.

At the back, the phone features a large 50MP primary camera along with an 8MP ultra-wide, a 2MP macro shooter, and a 2MP depth sensor. Honestly, the last two sensors are pretty much useless, but we were quite impressed with the 50MP sensor. While the preview often comes out grainy, when you check the gallery, you’ll see that the samples retain a lot of good details and colors.

We’ll talk about the camera in detail in our Redmi 10 review.

On the connectivity front, the Redmi 10 is well loaded, featuring dual stereo speakers, a dedicated 3.5mm headphone jack, side fingerprint sensor, MicroSD card support, IR Blaster, and a USB-C port.

The phone features a large 5000mAh capacity battery inside with 18W charging. The company provides a 22.5W charger inside, so you can charge other devices at a faster rate but on the Redmi 10, it’ll be capped at 18W.

So this was our first impression of the Redmi 10. The phone looks well loaded for a $150 device.

What are your thoughts?

OPPO N series might return, could be placed between Find and Reno series

By

-

Aug 24, 2021

OPPO currently sells smartphones under five series, namely A, F, K, Reno, and Find. According to a tipster, the brand’s total lineup may increase to six soon. This is said to happen with the re-introduction of the OPPO N series.

OPPO launched only three devices under the OPPO N series. These were OPPO N1, OPPO N1 mini, and OPPO N3. All three phones had a unique rotating camera module, which enabled users to click high-quality selfies from the primary rear camera.

The camera modules on the first two OPPO N handsets had to be rotated manually. On the other hand, the third device had a motorized rotating camera module.

OPPO stopped releasing new phones under the N series after OPPO N3. In fact, the company dropped the rotating camera module design altogether.

Right now, the trend is under-display cameras. Hence, if the leaker is right and OPPO indeed brings back the OPPO N series from the dead, then there’s a chance that these phones may feature an in-screen camera.

As per Digital Chat Station, a reliable tipster from China, this lineup may cost around ¥4,000 ($618). In other words, the alleged new OPPO N series will sit between the OPPO Find and OPPO Reno series.

OPPO is yet to issue a statement regarding the OPPO N series. Until then, we cannot say for sure if the lineup will return.

Xiaomi will no longer release Mi-branded products including smartphones, Here’s why

By

-

Aug 24, 2021

The Xiaomi brand has been a huge success story since it began as a business concern. The Chinese company seems to have arisen from the shadows of Huawei in the wake of its problems with the US government. Xiaomi has now become the leading global smartphone brand, even with minimal presence in some major markets. The rise of the company within the past year has been meteoric, driven by strong sales of its array of product ranges between mid-range and flagship offerings.

Xiaomi is also known to have several product offerings apart from smartphones, all underscored by its innovative design policy, affordability, and bespoke products for specific markets and demographic segments. Xiaomi sells products from the lifestyle, smart home, computing, and mobility categories. Its array of products include laptops, televisions, refrigerators, smartwatches, scooters, robots, and much more.

The Chinese company had used the moniker Mi to preface some of its products for about 10 years. However, a new branding campaign will see Xiaomi dropping “Mi” from its product names going forward, according to a report by XDA Developers. The change has already begun with the Xiaomi Mix 4 released just weeks back, and there is some in-house confirmation that this would be the case for subsequent products.

Since 2011 when Xiaomi unveiled its first-ever smartphone the Mi 1, it has blossomed tremendously. It was among the first Xiaomi products that started using the Mi moniker, although Xiaomi’s pioneer user interface MIUI was the very first to bear the name. The Mi 1 was a flagship offering at the time, and thus birthed the company’s tradition of delivering cutting-edge, innovative products on the high-end of the spectrum.

A Spokesperson has provided an official statement affirming this new development. The statement reads;

“Starting in 2021 Q3, Xiaomi’s product series “Mi” will be renamed to “Xiaomi”. This change will unify our global brand presence and close the perception gap between the brand and its products. This change may take some time to take effect in all regions.

With the introduction of the new brand identity, two distinct product series will sit beneath the parent brand. Xiaomi products represent the pinnacle of technology and offer a premium experience. Redmi products bring big innovation at a more accessible price point and are aimed at younger audience. This differentiation is also reflected in our updated logos, with both the Xiaomi and Redmi logotypes under the parent brand logo.

The product series naming convention — Xiaomi and Redmi — will also be applied to our ecosystem and IoT products over time.”

The OPPO F19 series made its debut in India in March. Initially, the brand introduced two models, namely OPPO F19 Pro and OPPO F19 Pro+. A month later in April, the company released the vanilla OPPO F19 in the country. Now, four months from that, the Chinese smartphone maker is tipped to launch yet another model in the lineup.

According to a report by 91Mobiles, OPPO is gearing up to launch a new device called OPPO F19s in India. This smartphone will be a special edition of the already available OPPO F19 (review).

Unfortunately, the publication has no details about this phone. It merely speculates the handset to retail around ₹19,000 since the regular OPPO F19 also costs the same.

For those unaware, the OPPO F19 sold in India is also known as OPPO A74 in some markets. The phone comes with a 6.43-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 SoC, 48MP (wide) + 2MP (macro) + 2MP (depth) triple camera setup, 16MP selfie camera, ColorOS 11.1 based on Android 11, and a 5,000mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging.

Other features include dual SIM card slots, an in-display fingerprint sensor, a dedicated MicroSD card slot, a 3.5mm headphone jack, a USB Type-C port, an 8mm thickness, and a 175g weight.

The OPPO F19s, which is said to launch during the upcoming festive season in India could have a similar set of specifications. Maybe, it could be just an OPPO F19 in different color like the OPPO F17 Pro Diwali Edition.

Xiaomi is expected to unveil the Xiaomi 11T and 11T Pro flagship phones in September. A fresh tweet by tipster Ishan Agarwal reveals that a European retailer has leaked and confirmed that the 11T series will include a standard and a Pro variant. He shared the configurations, color variants, and the expected pricing of both Mi 11T models.

The upcoming Mi 11T models will not be called Mi 11T and Mi 11T Pro. Xiaomi has reportedly decided to drop “Mi” branding from the names of its upcoming devices for the global markets. Hence, it appears that the upcoming flagship phones will be called the Xiaomi 11T and Xiaomi 11T Pro.

The 11T and 11T Pro will be arriving in two variants such as 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage and 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage. The European retailer listed the Mi 11T’s 128 GB and 256 GB storage variants for £633.96 (~$871), whereas the 256GB model is priced at £660.95 (~$908).

The Mi 11T Pro’s variants such as 128 GB and 256 GB were spotted with price tags £758.69 (~$1,042) and £785.42 (~$1,079). These models are expected to arrive in three colors such as Celestial Blue, Moonlight White, and Meteor Grey.

Rumors have it that the Mi 11T and Mi 11T Pro will feature a 120Hz OLED panel. The vanilla model will come with Dimensity 1200 chip and a 64-megapixel triple camera system, whereas the Pro model may offer Snapdragon 888, a 108-megapixel triple camera unit, and a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support.
