Honor has a new smartwatch but you can’t get your hands on it now because it is sort of not official yet. The new smartwatch is called the Honor Watch GS 3 (there wasn’t a GS 2) and Honor only briefly talked about its new heart rate sensor at its launch event today.
The highlight of the Honor Watch GS 3 is its 8-channel PPG sensor which also uses an AI algorithm and AI Engine to accurately measure heart rate. As shown in the image below, the heart rate module includes an 8-channel PPG module, a heart rate AI Engine, a frequency tracking algorithm, and an AI heart rate algorithm. Honor says they all work together to capture your heart rate data faster and more accurately.

There is no comparison, so we can’t say how well this compares to other heart rate sensors. We hope more details will be revealed in the near future.

We were able to confirm the existence of the Honor Tab V7 via the specification sheet of the Magic-Pencil 2 stylus. The spec sheet contains the devices compatible with the stylus, and apart from the Tab V7 Pro, it also includes last year’s Honor V6 and the yet-to-be-announced Honor Tab V7.
We do not know when the Honor Tab V7 will be announced neither do we know what specifications it will have, save for it having support for a stylus. Nevertheless, we are sure it will be cheaper than the pro model. So if the Honor Tab V7 Pro is above your budget, then you may want to wait for the Honor Tab V7.
The pro model starts at ¥2599 (~$401) and that gets you a Kompanio 1300T-powered device with an 11-inch 2K LCD screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. You also get 13MP + 2MP dual rear cameras, quad speakers with DTS:X Ultra, a 7250mAh battery, and support for 22.5W fast charging. Honor will ship the tablet with Magic UI 5.0 based on Android 11.

Honor announced a new flagship tablet today. Called the Honor Tab V7 Pro, it is the first device to be powered by the MediaTek Kompanio 1300T chipset. Alongside the tablet, Honor also announced two accessories for the tablet – the Honor Magic Floating Keyboard Case and the Magic-Pencil 2 stylus. Here are their features and price tags:
Honor Magic Floating Keyboard Case
The Honor Magic Floating Keyboard Case might as well be the best of keyboard cases from a Chinese manufacturer, at least compared to that of Xiaomi’s Mi Pad 5 series and that of the Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2021 but it is also the most expensive of the three.
The keyboard case has a floating design like that of the iPad Pro’s Magic Keyboard. When attached, the tablet can be adjusted between 90º and 120°. Unlike the Mi Pad 5’s keyboard case, there is a trackpad and it supports gestures. Users will be able to switch between open apps and windows, enter multi-tasking mode, and return to the desktop all with a three-finger gesture.

Another interesting feature of the keyboard case is a garage for the Magic-Pencil 2. This garage not only stores the stylus but also charges it. Other features of the keyboard case include a 1.3mm key travel and a dedicated microphone button for voice-to-text dictation in multiple languages including English.
The Honor Magic Floating Keyboard Case is priced at ¥799 (~$123) which is significantly higher than the ¥499 (~$77) Lenovo charges for its own keyboard case and the ¥399 (~$62) price tag of the Mi Pad 5’s own keyboard case.
Honor Magic-Pencil 2
The Honor Magic-Pencil 2 is the companion stylus for the Honor Tab V7 Pro tablet. It has a cylindrical design with a replaceable nib and comes in black. It costs ¥499 (~$77), making it more expensive than the ¥299 (~$47) Xiaoxin Active Capacitive Pen and the ¥349 (~$54) Mi Pad Stylus.
The stylus has 4096-levels of pressure sensitivity, 8ms latency, and a battery life that goes up to 15 hours. Users will be able to charge it by placing it on top of the Honor V7 Pro or inside the garage of the keyboard case. A full charge takes 1 hour. Honor also says that the Magic-Pencil 2 can be connected to up to four Honor V7 Pro tablets at the same time.
The Honor Magic-Pencil 2 is also compatible with the Honor V6 tablet.

Wireless charging has come across new challenges ever since Apple released its MagSafe technology back in 2020. After one year, we finally see a similar solution on the Android platform.
Recently, Realme launched its own Magnetic wireless charging technology, the Realme MagDart. After our limited experience of the implementation, we have to say Realme is trying to take charging on Android phones in a new direction
Before we take a closer look at the Realme MagDart charger, let’s check the Apple MagSafe first. To be honest, it seems that the MagSafe didn’t successfully change most users’ habits in replacing the standard solution for wireless charging. However, it did fix one of the issues of traditional wireless charging, which is to correctly line up the phone to achieve the best charging efficiency. But honestly, apart from this, there isn’t any significant improvements in Magsafe over traditional wireless charging, especially if you consider the charging speeds.
But it looks like Realme has updated this technology on the Android Platform.
Along with the launch of the new technology, Realme also released a series of products supporting the MagDart Charging. And we have managed to be one of the first ones to get our hands on these exciting products.
So let’s see what the new MagDart Charging technology offers.
In this MagDart charging kit, there’s the first concept Android phone in the world to support Magnetic wireless charging — the Realme Flash. It features a 4500mAh battery supporting up to 50W MagDart wireless charging efficiency. Once you remove the top panel, you will see all the MagDart accessories settled at the bottom of the box, including a MagDart power bank, a full 50W MagDart charging dock and another 15W MagDart compact charger, similar to the Apple MagSafe charger. In addition to the new accessories, a Realme’s 50W cookie-like mini charger and another 65W fast charger are also included in the box.
Let’s first start with the phone, the Realme Flash. It’s still a big challenge for the industry to achieve fast wireless charging with safe thermal performance. Apple’s MagSafe no doubt was an important exploration in this field, but due to issues such as charging efficiency and heating, feedback on all the related products has not been as good as expected. We’ve heard enough users complain about their iPhones that keep losing power while playing games with Apple’s Magsafe charging.
But for Realme’s MagDart, things were much better in our charging tests.
Realme MagDart 50W Magnetic Charger
On the Realme Flash, Realme claims that the MagDart charging fixed the lining-up issues by using a boron-cobalt alloy powerful magnet, while maintaining high charging speed by applying high power.
But all of this couldn’t be done without a reliable thermal design, which is probably the reason why it could achieve charging efficiency close to a wired charging solution in our charging test.
Although a magnetic structure is added inside, the 50W MagDart charger is still one of the smallest wireless chargers that I’ve ever seen, supporting over 40W charging efficiency. It’s equipped with an active cooling fan to quickly dissipate heat and keep the inside temperature at a safe level even at high power output. The phone did maintain a consistent charging speed with the charger for almost the entire charging test duration. Eventually, the full-charge test was done in around 60mins. And more importantly, the devices’ temperature didn’t exceed 41℃ during the entire test duration.
Realme MagDart 15W Magnetic Charger
If you are still not satisfied with the bigger size of the 50W charger, Realme offers a 15W super-slim MagDart charger as another option. Realme smartly located the control chips at the other end of the cable to reduce weight and thickness of the round charging panel. Another benefit of the design is to reduce the heat generated during charging and sustain high power for a longer duration. In our gaming & charging tests, we didn’t experience any power-drop issues like the Apple’s MagSafe. Another good detail is that all the MagDart devices use a larger coil to reduce the impedance. It also means less heat is generated during charging. As a result, better heat-transfer efficiency is achieved with less power loss.
Realme MagDart Power Bank
The MagDart power bank is my favorite accessory of the charging kit.
Like the Apple’s MagSafe battery pack, the realme battery pack can stick firmly on the back of the Realme Flash without a cable. Although we have no confirmed information about its charging efficiency, in our actual charging test, the charging speed of the power bank was not bad. The Realme Flash charged up to 20% in around 30mins with the Power bank. All you need to do is simply attach the power bank to the phone. We also tried it on other models that support wireless charging. And it worked well without any issues.
And I have to commend its design. The compact white body covered with skin-like surface has excellent build quality. Unsurprisingly, it has become one of the necessary items for me for on-the-go charging. So I really suggest you guys pay attention to this power bank even if you are not a Realme user.
According to our limited experience, the Realme’s MagDart solution may be the best solution for wireless charging right now. And it’s not difficult to foresee that as a pioneer in the field of wireless charging, Realme is determined to develop a complete solution with multiple product lines meeting the needs of various scenarios. This makes us wonder what more can we expect from this young brand when all these new charging products are made available in the market.
So that’s all about the MagDart charging technology. What are your thoughts on this technology?
WhatsApp has finally unveiled a highly requested feature that would allow users to transfer chat history between their Android and iOS smartphones. This feature has been anticipated by many users for a while now would simplify moving accounts between an Android and an iOS phone.
Notably, the popular social media platform made the announced at the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2021 event. While the process of shifting chat history before was complicated and could involve third party apps, it seems that the company is now offering a simply solution. As of right now, Samsung smartphones will be the first to be compatible with chat transfer to iPhones. Although, we can soon expect the feature to be available for more iOS and Android devices sometime in the near future.
WhatsApp stated that a user’s chat history is end to end encrypted on their own devices and migrating chats along with voice notes posed a number of technical issues. But it seems that the company is working with the world’s largest smartphone maker to overcome this hurdle. The Facebook owned messaging based firm added that “WhatsApp will be introducing the ability to move your entire WhatsApp chat history — including voice notes, photos, and conversations — in a seamless and secure way if you choose to switch mobile operating systems.
It further added that “The feature means that people will be able to switch between the platforms of their choice, and take their WhatsApp history with them. The feature will be available to users of both Android and iOS systems — which means that people will be able to switch from both Android to iOS, and from iOS to Android. It will start to roll out on Android initially, and on Samsung’s newest Galaxy phones to start. Users will be able to take their WhatsApp history from iOS to an Android device, and will subsequently be able to do the same on iOS devices.”
Oppo India has recently shared that it has set a new benchmark in terms of quality assurance with its Reno6 series of smartphones. The company even shared videos of the device being passed through 150 rigorous quality tests.
These tests were undertaken in the Chinese tech giant’s QE Reliability Lab, established at the Greater Noida factory in India. In this site, the company had the Reno6 go through quality tests involving environmental tests, mechanical stress tests,
durability tests, and performance tests.
Tasleem Arif, VP, and R&D Head OPPO India added that “We are committed to represent quality without compromise, and all our products result from tireless efforts towards quality testing. Our focus is to empower users with premium devices that can endure bumps and spills and even exceed users durability requirements.”
Some of the more notable tests include drop and rain tests. To check the physical endurance of the smartphone, Oppo dropped the Reno6 front a height of 1.5 meters around 24 times. Furthermore, the company even dropped the phone into the water at a depth of 20 centimeters for 30 seconds to test its water resistance. The handset even had a USB cable and headphone jack inserted over 10,000 times each at varying angles.
In the environmental tests, the company tested the smartphone’s ability to function in varying temperatures. This includes extreme temperatures of about -40°C, as well as warm conditions such as 75°C for 7 days. Notably, this is more than double the industry standard of 3 days. The Oppo Lab also conducted rigorous tests on the radiation efficiency of the phone’s antennas. This includes 5G networking brands to also ensure seamless operation and connectivity across India.
The Chinese electronics maker – Xiaomi recently unveiled the much-awaited Mi Mix 4 smartphone and Mi Pad 5 series. Both the devices are up for pre-orders via Giztop with an international shipping option.

In the beginning of March, realme rolled out the Android 11 (realme UI 2.0) beta update for the realme narzo 10. Five months later, this smartphone has finally started receiving the stable update.
Chinese tech brand realme has been rolling out realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 since September. Almost one year later, the company is yet to deliver the update to certain eligible devices.
According to an official announcement post on realme Community, the said software update is being now seeded out to realme narzo 10. The latest system update for this handset arrives with firmware version RMX2040_11_C.07. In order to receive this update via OTA, users should be on firmware version RMX2040_11_A.47.
Anyway, it is worth noting that like any other OTA software update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. As a result, some users may get the update earlier than others. But every user should get the update in the coming days.
Having said that, if any user is not happy with the Android 11-based realme UI 2.0, they can roll back to the older realme UI based on Android 10 by manually installing the rollback package. But unfortunately, unlike the update process, the rollback process will wipe the phone’s internal storage.
Last but not least, going by realme’s software update track record, the realme narzo 10 will most likely not receive Android 12. Hence, Android 11 could be its first and last major system update.
Samsung has just launched two highly anticipated foldable smartphones, namely the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3. While the former is the brand’s first foldable smartphone that arrives with S Pen support, using it with a regular S Pen can damage its display.
For those unaware, the South Korean tech giant has also launched the S Pen Fold Edition that was designed specifically for the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Although, the foldable phone is also compatible with the S Pen Pro. But using the device with any other S Pen can damage its foldable screen. Using a regular S Pen can cause permanent physical damage on the Galaxy Z Fold 3’s screen due to the design of its tip.
This information arrives despite the Fold 3 using a new protective film that Samsung claims raises durability by 80 percent over the previous generation. As stated previously, the issue lies with the tip design on the regular S Pen. The new S Pen Fold Edition and the S Pen Pro feature Pro Tips, which is lacking in the base models.
These new tips are softer than the regular ones but their most important aspect is the retractable mechanism for the tip. This prevents the tip from damaging the foldable screen when pressure is applied during use. So, even if somehow one manages to pair the S Pen with the Fold 3, one can potentially damage their 1,800 US Dollar foldable smartphone.
