The new ZMI charger comes in a matte green color option. As the name suggests, it supports up to 33W output and features two ports (USB Type-A, USB Type-C). It also sports a foldable pin.

The power adapter supports Xiaomi’s proprietary charging protocols (22.5W, 33W), USB PD (Power Delivery), and Apple 20W charging. Hence, it can be used to charge Xiaomi group smartphones, the latest iPhones, and other USB PD compatible devices. Additionally, as mentioned in the beginning, ZMI claims that this charger can be also used to fuel the upcoming iPhone 13 series.

It is worth noting that only the USB Type-C port maxes out at 33W, while the USB Type-A port is limited to 27W. Both the ports can be used at the same time and during those sessions, the power adapter is capped at 22.5W.

Lastly, like any other ZMI charger, there’s also a Xiaomi variant of the ZMI 33W Charger 1A1C in white color. But interestingly, that product is sold in Taiwan instead of China.

The ZMI 33W Charger 1A1C is priced at ¥79 ($12) in China. But for a limited time, it will be available at ¥69 ($11). The charger is scheduled to go on sale from September 1.

MIUI 12.5 update is now available for POCO X3 in India

By
Sudarshan Ravichandran
-

The POCO X3 was one of the best smartphones launched in India in 2020. The handset debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 10. But unfortunately, it got the Android 11 update only a few weeks back in the country. Now, it has also started receiving the MIUI 12.5 update.

POCO X3 NFC 023

POCO released the POCO X3 in India as an alternative to the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max in the region. A higher variant of this device called POCO X3 Pro followed later. 

The latter phone debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 11. Hence, it got the update to MIUI 12.5 earlier. On the other hand, the former is getting the new MIUI update only now as it was treated with Android 11 at around the same time.

Having said that, the MIUI 12.5 update for the POCO X3 in India arrives with build number V12.5.2.0.RJGINXM. Apart from bringing new features, the new software update also bumps up the security patch level to July 2021.

Like any other OTA system update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. Hence, some users might receive it earlier, while others may have to wait for some time.

The POCO X3 has so far only got access to a single Android update. It is yet to get any major MIUI update. Hence, the phone will likely get more than MIUI 13 and Android 12 in the future.

By
Jed John Ikoba

Taiwanese fabless semiconductor company MediaTek announced the Dimensity 810 chipset alongside the 6nm Dimensity 920 on August 11. At that time, there were speculations that Realme will be the first smartphone maker to launch a Dimenity 810-powered phone after Madhav Sheth sought the opinion of fans if they would want the company to be the first to bring MediaTek Dimensity 810 Processor in the world.

Realme India has now confirmed today that it will launch a Diemsity 810-powered smartphone soon, the first in the world. The teaser was silent on the exact launch date and the name of the expected smartphone. However, there are speculations that the smartphone will be the Realme 8s. It is expected to feature a 6.5-inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate alongside a 64MP primary camera and a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W fast charging.

The Dimensity 810 chip is a 6nm chip that sits below the 7nm Dimensity 820. It features 8 cores made up of four Cortex-A76 cores clocked at 2.4GHz and four Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2.0GHz. MediaTek claims that it brings a 20% increase in performance compared to the previous generation. The GPU is the Mali-G57 MC2.

The chipset supports 120Hz FHD+ displays, LPDDR4x RAM, UFS 2.2 (2-lane) storage, and up to 64MP cameras. The chipset also has high-end AI-camera features such as AI-Bokeh and AI-Color in collaboration with Arcsoft.

Apart from Realme, OPPO is also expected to launch a Dimensity 810-powered phone soon as per a recent leak.

OPPO A16K, OPPO A55 get essential certifications ahead of launch

By

The OPPO A series is the company’s most affordable smartphone lineup. These devices don’t offer value-for-money features like the similarly priced products from Xiaomi group as well as realme. However, still they are quite popular. According to findings, the next phones in the lineup will be OPPO A16K and OPPO A55.

OPPO A55 Brisk Blue Featured
OPPO A55

The upcoming OPPO A16K and OPPO A55 have been certified by three different agencies, namely BIS, NBTC, and EEC. Their certifications suggest that they could be launched in India, Southeast Asia, and India.

Going by the brandings, the OPPO A16K with model number CPH2349 should be the cheaper of the two. On the other hand, the OPPO A55 sporting model number CPH2325 is expected to be the 4G variant of the OPPO A55 5G from earlier this year.

The certifications don’t reveal anything about these handsets, except that they are limited to 4G connectivity. Fortunately, these phones are also listed in the Camera FV-5 database. Hence, we know some of their camera specs.

Being budget smartphones, the forthcoming OPPO A series devices don’t house impressive cameras. The OPPO A16K and the OPPO A55 may come with 2MP and 4MP front-facing cameras respectively. Lastly, the latter handset might feature a 13MP primary sensor.

Apart from the above-mentioned specifics, we know nothing about these soon-to-be-launched OPPO A series smartphones. But we expect to learn more about them before their official announcement in the coming days.

Apple, Google face scrutiny in South Korea over in-app payment rules

Google and Apple are facing scrutiny in South Korea over their in app payment rules. Both companies were criticized by the government in South Korea, which is considering a ban on their payment rules that could also potentially shake up their dominance in the industry.

AppleAccording to a TechCrunch report, the Cupertino based and search engine giant are facing trouble in South Korea due to their established rules for how third party apps in their app stores charge for services. In the country, parliamentary committee passed a bill earlier this month to prevent both firms from charging software developer’s commissions on in app purchases. As of right now, this bill is the first of its kind in the world.

Furthermore, the final vote for this planned ban on Google and Apple payment rules by all members of the National Assembly, which was expected to be held in a plenary session on the same day, has been delayed at the moment. Media reports stated that the plenary session was postponed to August 30. If the new bill is adopted, South Korea will become the first nation that banned the global tech firms from charging third party developers on in app payments.

Apple

The bill has been called the “Anti-Google law” and was approved by the legislation and judiciary committee of the National Assembly to revise the Telecommunication Business Act. In a statement, Apple said that “the proposed Telecommunications Business Act will put users who purchase digital goods from other sources at risk of fraud, undermine their privacy protections, make it difficult to manage their purchases, and features like ‘Ask to Buy’ and Parental Controls will become less effective. We believe user trust in App Store purchases will decrease as a result of this proposal—leading to fewer opportunities for the over 482,000 registered developers in Korea who have earned more than KRW8.55 trillion to date with Apple.”

TV prices may finally come down before the end of 2021

By
Sudarshan Ravichandran
-

TV prices are going up since the beginning of 2021. This is due to the prolonged global shortage of LCD panels. This trend is now said to change in H2 2021. It will be due to the rising competition among the TV OEMs.

OnePlus TV 40Y1 Featured 01
OnePlus TV 40Y1

The price of LCD panels has been increasing for more than a year. As a result, televisions got expensive starting in early 2021. Thankfully, we can finally expect the price to go down as per a report by Omdia.

According to the research firm, the price of LCD TV panels has started declining from Q3 2021. This trend is forecasted to continue in the second half of 2021.

The dip in panel price will be driven by the competition among the television manufacturers, the widening gap in profitability between Chinese and South Korean television manufacturers, and strong bargaining power. Since the supply chain has now become hard to predict, OEMs need competitive strategies to make use of the situation.

If all goes well, companies will stop hiking the price of their TVs. As of now, all we can do is hope for the best. The results will probably start appearing in the last quarter of 2021.

What are your thoughts on the current TV market? Did you postpone your purchase due to the increase in prices? Do let us know in the comment section below.

Huawei has just patent another smartphone that features a rollable display. We had previously reported on a possible future Mate phone with an Arc display and what appeared to be a Mate X Rollable a couple of weeks ago. Now, a new patent reveals another futuristic Mate model with a rollable display and a triple camera setup.

HuaweiAccording to a LetsGoDigital report, the Chinese tech giant has patent a new device that sports a wrap around display that cover the front side and most of the rear panel as well. But its most highlighting aspect is that this display can be pulled out from one side on the front, which extends the display to a small tablet size. When extended, the display is extended from the right side of the handset, while the display on the rear rolls towards the front.

Notably, Ts Designer even offers us a 3D concept render of this device and its rollable display in action on his YouTube channel. Looking at this video, we can observe the device in three modes. One is where the device resembles the Xiaomi Mi MIX Alpha in its compact form, while the other two is when its screen is rolled out. In one of the positions, the screen is enlarged by 35 percent or only extended to half of its total capacity, while the other has it completely rolled out, reaching a size 70 percent larger than its compact position.

HuaweiIn other words, a 6.5 inch display can reach a size of up to 11 inch to achieve a tablet format. This is basically the size offered by modern day foldable smartphones. Furthermore, it is also quite a practical design and could very well a Mate series of phone that launches sometime in the future. The lack of a hinge and folding mechanism could also ensure no creases being formed on the surface of the display as well. The front side may even house an in display camera technology, while the rear offers a triple camera setup. Keep in mind that this is still a patent and it is unknown if the company is actually working on such a product.

All smartphones use lithium-ion batteries. It’s a known fact that these batteries degrade over time when they are charged up to 100% regularly. Hence, OEMs offer software solutions to slow the degradation. Samsung only used to offer such a feature on its tablets. With the launch of the Galaxy Z Flip3 and the Galaxy Z Fold3, this feature has now made its way to its smartphones as well.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Phantom Black Galaxy Z Flip 3 Cream

The Device Care application on the Samsung Galaxy products is responsible for battery, storage, memory, security, and mobile data usage-related settings. This app is equivalent to the MIUI Security application on the Xiaomi group devices.

Under the Battery section, the app has a feature called Protect Battery on the Galaxy Tab series of tablets. Turning this on will limit the charging to 85%. It can help in extending the battery life over the years.

As per SamMobile, this ‘Protect Battery’ feature is now also available on the new Galaxy Z Flip3 and the Galaxy Z Fold3. They are the first smartphones from Samsung to come with this feature.

At present, it is not known whether this feature will be made available for other Galaxy smartphones. Because it did not get added on the Galaxy S21 series with the latest so-called One UI 3.1.1 update. Hopefully, Samsung brings ‘Protect Battery’ to its phones as most other OEMs offer a similar feature on their handsets.

Xiaomi is popular for its Redmi Note series of budget smartphones worldwide. These devices offer a good set of features at an affordable price. The realme number series phones have been their prime competitor for the past few years. Looks like this may change as realme might soon debut the realme Note series.

Realme GT NEO logo featured Review

The sister brand of OPPO and OnePlus is gearing up to launch its next batch of budget smartphones with realme 9 and realme narzo 50 brandings. As per multiple reports, there will be more models in the lineup than ever before. Looks like the company is mimicking Xiaomi’s approach.

In addition to these handsets, the brand may also introduce the realme Note 9 series consisting of realme Note 9 and realme Note 9 Prime. These two devices are listed in the import database. Apart from their names, we know nothing about these phones. It’s not sure if these products are even real.

However, it is worth noting that a couple of days back, four realme 9 series handsets were also spotted in the same database, namely realme 9, realme 9 Pro, realme 9 Prime, and realme 9A. Hence, the realme Note series could probably exist.

Also, realme has confirmed to add two more models to the already existing realme 8 series. One of them is the recently leaked realme 8i and the other one is realme 8s. The brand will be soon launching the realme narzo 50A and realme narzo 50i too.

All the brandings of the upcoming realme budget smartphones are identical to that of products from Xiaomi. This clearly suggests that the fastest growing smartphone brand wants to compete even more fiercely with its archnemesis.
