Realme has today confirmed that the 12GB RAM with 128GB storage version of the Realme Q3 Pro Carnival Edition will be available for purchase in the country on 1st July. However, this variant will be available only through offline channels.
The smartphone was officially announced by the company on 25th May this year. It features a 6.43-inch AMOLED display with a hole at the top left corner of the screen for housing a 16-megapixel camera sensor.
On the backside, there’s a 64-megapixel primary camera sensor along with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide angle camera and a 2-megapixel macro camera. Other features on the device include stereo speakers, an audio jack, and an in-display fingerprint scanner.
Under the hood, the device is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 768G SoC. The phone runs the Android 11 operating system out-of-the-box and is running the Realme UI custom user interface on top. It comes powered by a 4,500mAh battery which supports 50W fast charging technology.
Realme is also offering an impressive 7GB virtual expansion in memory in a smartphone. In other words, this model would effectively have a combined 19GB of RAM, although, this version is exclusively available only through offline channels.
As noted, this top-end variant of Realme Q3 Pro Carnival Edition with 12GB RAM and 128GB internal storage will go on sale in China tomorrow and there’s another variant as well, packing 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage, which costs 1,799 yuan which is around $281. The smartphone comes in two color options — Blue and Black.
The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite was recently launched in India and has already seen great success in the region. Now, the company has revealed that the device’s sales have broken records, reaching 200 Crore INR (roughly 26.8 million US Dollars) within just the first week of its launch.
The sales figures from the Chinese tech giant’s smartphones include both offline and online channels, with the model seeing great response from customers in India. Dr. Vivek Kumar, Business Lead of Mi smartphones, stated that “With the launch of Mi 11 Lite as well, we introduced the perks of a flagship level experience featured in an ultralight and slim form factor, for our fashionable young audiences. The 200 crore milestone is a testimony that we are constantly supported by our Mi Fans and consumers, when we try something new and exciting, and that there is an appetite for such devices in the market.”
For those unaware, India is a key market for Xiaomi, with the brand being a major player in the Indian smartphone market. Furthermore, the success of the Mi 11 Lite is likely due to the company’s traditional strategy of aggressive pricing with competitive specifications. The smartphone starts from 21,999 INR (roughly 296 US Dollars) and offers a Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G SoC. It sports a 6.55 inch 10 bit AMOLED DoTDisplay with support for a 90Hz high refresh rate.
The handset is also the slimmest and lightest smartphone of 2021, with a 6.8mm thickness and weighing just 157 grams. On the rear, the device houses a 64 megapixel triple camera setup along with an ultra wide angle lens and macro sensor. It even offers IP53 certification and has been available through the company’s official Mi.com stores, Mi Home Stores, Flipkart.com, and over 10,000 partner retail stores as well.
Rumors have it that Samsung is gearing up to launch the Galaxy F22 smartphone in India. This handset will be the fourth F-series handset from the brand after Galaxy F41, Galaxy F02s, Galaxy F12, and Galaxy F62. Industry sources have revealed (via. India TV News) that the Galaxy F22 will be debuting in India in the second week of July.
Reports have claimed that the Galaxy F22 will be a rebadged version of the Galaxy A22, which went official in India earlier this week. It remains to be seen whether there are any differences between the two devices. The F22 is likely to be priced under Rs 15,000 (~$202) and it will be available for purchase through Flipkart. The support page of the handset went live in India last week, which is yet another hint that it will be debuting soon.
Samsung Galaxy F22
Ahead of the launch, the Galaxy F22 has appeared in the database of the Google Play Console (via. MySmartPrice). The SM-E225F model number and Galaxy F22 are both mentioned in the listing. It reveals that the handset has a teardrop notch display that supports an HD+ resolution of 720 x 1339 pixels.
The listing reveals that the F22 offers other specs such as the Helio G80 chipset (MT6769T), 4 GB of RAM, Android 11 OS, Bluetooth 5.0, and LTE. The F22 may borrow specs like 90Hz refresh rate support, 48-megapixel quad-cameras, a 13-megapixel selfie camera, and a 5,000mAh battery with 10W charging from the A22 handset. The A22 is available with a pricing of Rs 18,499 (~$249) in India.
When it comes to smartphone innovation, OPPO has been at the forefront with a bunch of new introductions and patents from the Chinese brand. And the patents and announcements don’t seem to stop. We have already seen OPPO X 2021, OPPO rollable concept phone, and now, the company has filed a new patent for a dual-sided smartphone with a Wrap-Around display.
OPPO has filed a patent with the World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO) with documentation called ‘Method for assembling and disassembling electronic equipment’. It elaborates on the assembling and disassembling methods of such dual-sided flexible screens.
A quick look at the patent, and we can see the schematics of the phone, with thin bezels and sharp corners. The schematics do give us an idea of how it might look, but the concept images shared by LetsGoDigital give us a better idea of how the design would look when materialized.
Jermaine Smit, the guy behind Concept Creator has collaborated with the folks at LetsGoDigital. The concept renders by him looks very interesting. As mentioned earlier, the device has super-thin bezels and the left side has the display flowing towards the back. Although the display is extended and wrapped around it isn’t curved, rather it is sharp and has a cutting edge design.
OPPO is said to be using an ultra-thin steel plate between the display and the frame which allows them to place relatively thin screens.
Moving to the rear, the renders show the rear camera setup. It has four sensors and an LED flash beneath the lenses. As it is a full-screen phone with a display wrapped around it, we can say that the rear camera can be used as a selfie sensor by looking at the extended display as a viewfinder.
With only the screen on one side, the volume rockers have been placed on the very right edge if you have a look at the phone from the front.
Other than this, we have also seen something similar from Huawei in the past. The Chinese smartphone giant had patented a dual-sided phone with a similar wrap-around display back in 2020. The one major difference in Huawei’s patent was it had curved edges instead of sharp ones like this OPPO patent. In case you missed it, we’ve already seen a device in real life with a wrap-around display — the Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha.
As it is just in the patent stage, we have to wait and see if this design materializes into a real smartphone in the coming years.
A few days ago, Apple launched the Beats Studio Buds true wireless earphones, which are very different in terms of design and features when compared to the brand’s Beats Powerbeats Pro launched in 2019.
Now a report from Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst at Tianfeng International says that the newly released Beats Studio Buds are powered by MediaTek’s TWS chip manufactured using the 22nm process instead of the Apple H1 chip made on 16nm process.
It is believed that the reason behind using MediaTek chipset and not the company’s own semiconductor product is better compatibility with Android devices as the US-based tech giant is now focusing on Android users as well to increase its market share in the true wireless earphones category.
Another reason for the tech giant to use MediaTek chipset could be shortened development timelines, more flexible and competitive strategies, reduced costs, and differentiation from the AirPods series.
Given that Apple is now using MediaTek’s chipset in its TWS offerings, the Taiwanese company will now be able to push the product to other companies as well, helping MediaTek boost its sales in the TWS chips segment.
Further, the report talks about the market share of wearables. It adds that although Apple remains the market leader in this category, its market share is declining. Due to lower-than-expected demand for AirPods in Q2 2021, the forecast of shipments was revised down to approximately 70-75 million units instead of around 85 million units.
OPPO is reportedly working on a new series mid-range phone called the OPPO A16. The handset has already some important certifications and it has already appeared at the Geekbench benchmarking site. Reputed leakster has now shared the renders of the A16 to reveal its front and rear design.
The leaked renders show that the OPPO A16 will come in black, white, beige, and blue colors. The front side of the device is flanked by a teardrop notch screen. While the chin of the phone is slightly thick, its side bezels are a bit thick.
Moving on to the back, the A16 has an AI-driven triple camera setup housed inside a rectangle-shaped module. The right edge of the device features a side-facing fingerprint scanner, and its left edge has volume buttons.

Past reports have revealed that the handset measures 163.78 x 75.62mm and it measures 180.39mm diagonally. The phone houses a 5,000mAh battery that supports 10W charging. It will come preinstalled with Android 11 OS and ColorOS 11.1, and it will offer connectivity features like dual-band Wi-Fi, 4G LTE, and Bluetooth.

The Geekbench listing of the device revealed that it is powered by the Helio G35 chipset and 4 GB of RAM. It scored 177 points and 950 points in Geekbench’s single-core and multi-core tests, respectively. The other specs of the smartphone are under wraps.
The OPPO A16 will be replacing the last year’s OPPO A15 phone. The A15 came with specs like a 6.5-inch IPS LCD HD+ display, a 5-megapixel front camera, 13-megapixel + 2-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple cameras, Helio P35 chip, 2 GB / 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage, ColorOS 7.2 based Android 10 OS, a 4,230mAh battery with 10W charging support, and a rear-facing fingerprint scanner.
Apple is one of the leading companies when it comes to wearable devices and that is applicable to the European market as well. According to the data revealed by IDC, Apple continues to lead the wearable market in Europe in the first quarter of this year, selling over 7.8 million devices.
As for the market share, the Cupertino-based tech giant is controlling 35.6 percent of the wearable market in Europe. The second spot is reserved by Samsung with a 16.1 percent market share, selling over 3.5 million devices.
Chinese companies Xiaomi, Huawei, and Huami make up the top five wearable brands in the continent. The report also adds that Xiaomi has managed to sell 2.5 million devices in the first quarter of this year.
The IDC report also reveals that the earwear products account for the biggest share in 2020, with over 50.1 million units sold last year in this category. Now, as for the smartwatches, over 23.4 million units were sold last year, with the popular Apple Watches leading the category.
Apple Watches accounted for 31.2 percent market share, reaching 6.9 million units, representing a growth of 51.2 Year-on-Year. While WatchOS has surpassed market expectations, the price cut of Watch Series 3 and Watch SE led to stronger sales.
Indian tech manufacturer Noise is expected to announce the Noise ColorFit Qube watch in the market soon. Ahead of its launch, the smartwatch was listed on the company’s official website, revealing key details. The device has been listed on Flipkart’s launch hub at a discounted price.
Noise Colorfit Qube is priced at ₹4,999 but the Flipkart portal suggests that it will go on sale for ₹2,499. The posters and adverts on the portal reveal major details of the smartwatch.
According to the portal, the Noise ColorFit Qube will sport a 1.4-inch full-touch HD display. It will have cloud-based watch faces which can be personalized from the NoiseFit app. Keeping aside the specs for a moment, the design of the smartwatch reminds us of the Noise ColorFit Pro 3. Although it does share a similar design, the specs of the new Qube watch differ significantly.
The ColorFit Qube has a slightly larger display over the ColorFit Pro 3, with eight sports modes, and 7-day battery life. As far as sports modes are considered, Qube’s 8 sports modes include walking, cycling, running, yoga, treadmill, climbing, hiking, and spinning.
The Noise ColorFit Qube smartwatch has a 24-hour heart rate monitoring sensor, IP68 waterproof rating, and other essential features such as Find My Phone, Sleep monitor, Weather Forecast display, Music Control, etc.
Although it is yet to officially launch, the website shows three available color options – Charcoal Black, Charcoal Grey, and Beige Gold. The website does show ‘Coming Soon’ meaning that we can expect it to be on sale anytime on Flipkart and the Noise’ official website.
U.S PC-maker Hewlett-Packard (HP) has announced its lightest consumer laptop yet dubbed HP Pavilion Aero 13with a 2.5k display and a powerful Ryzen 7 processor. The HP Pavilion Aero 13 is a 13.3-inch laptop that comes with a magnesium-aluminum chassis and is reported to the lightest consumer laptop, and it weighs less than 1kg.

Rumors are rife that Realme is soon going to announce the Realme GT Master Edition 5G smartphone in China. It is speculated that the Realme phone with RMX3366 that was recently seen with full specifications and images at TENAA could be releasing in China as the Realme GT Master Edition 5G. Ahead of the launch, the tipster Ice Universe has shared the key specifications of the smartphone.
The leak reveals that the Realme GT Master Edition will be featuring a 6.5-inch display that will carry support for a 90Hz refresh rate. The Snapdragon 870 mobile platform will be present under the hood of the device.
The rear camera setup of the phone may feature a 108-megapixel + 13-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple cameras. It may arrive with a 4,500mAh battery that carries support for 65W rapid charging.
It is advisable to digest the above leak with a grain of salt since it does not match with the TENAA listing of RMX3366 entirely. The TENAA appearance revealed the handset has a 6.55-inch AMOLED FHD+ punch-hole display with curved edges and an in-screen fingerprint scanner. It has a 32-megapixel front camera, and its rear camera island has a 50-megapixel (Sony IMX766) + 16-megapixel (Sony IMX481) + 2-megapixel (B&W lens) triple camera system.

The Snapdragon 870 chip will be accompanied by up to 12 GB of LPDDR4x RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage on the device. The 4,500mAh battery is expected to carry support for 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 charging.
There is no word on the pricing of the Realme GT Master Edition 5G. It is likely the company will hold a launch event for the phone in early July in China. The company is also expected to announce the Realme Book laptop alongside the Master Edition phone.
Microsoft officially released the first Insider Preview build of Windows 11 yesterday. While the build was rolled out, the company has clarified on the minimum requirements of the new Windows 11 software.
According to a blog post from Microsoft, the PC health check tool has caused confusion regarding the compatibility of the software. Consequently, the PC Health Check App has been taken down after negative feedback from those trying to install the software on their powerful rigs. The tool failed to clarify the exact reason for the incompatibility of the software and for showing incompetent results.
“The intention of today’s post is to acknowledge and clarify the confusion caused by our PC Health Check tool, share more details as to why we updated the system requirements for Windows 11, and set the path for how we will learn and adjust”, the post stated.
Although the post is shared to shed some light on the updated minimum requirements of Windows 11, it does not have a definitive answer for the same. What we learn is that Microsoft is paving paths for those with Intel 7th gen chips. The new software could also support AMD’s Zen-1 processors. Let’s look at the updated requirements further in this article.
As of now, Windows 11 is not supported for old-gen chips and those with new-gen processors didn’t tick the PC Health app’s compatibility list. Well, it doesn’t mean that your powerful system doesn’t support the software. It’s just that Microsoft’s app does need some workarounds.
Nonetheless, Windows 11 currently supports chipsets with 2 or more cores having 1 GHz or faster speed. In order to run Windows 11, the system needs at least 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. It runs on TPM version 2.0 and supports DirectX 12.
“Using the principles above, we are confident that devices running on Intel 8th generation processors and AMD Zen 2, as well as Qualcomm 7 and 8 Series, will meet our principles around security and reliability and minimum system requirements for Windows 11”, the post continued.
Furthermore, the post also confirmed that Microsoft will be testing the compatibility for Intel’s 7th generation and AMD’s first generation processors. With this, we can expect the aforementioned chips to be compatible with the new Windows 11 in the future.

The image also reveals that it will be sporting a 108-megapixel primary camera.
The case renders of the smartphone that surfaced recently revealed its display could be featuring a larger notch like the predecessor Vivo S9. Hence, it is likely to come equipped with a dual selfie camera system. The S9 features a 6.44-inch AMOLED display and a 44-megapixel (main, with autofocus) + 8-megapixel (ultrawide) dual selfie camera system. It remains to be seen whether the S10 will feature the same screen and dual selfie cameras.
The S9 series that debuted earlier this year included two handsets such as the Vivo S9 and Vivo S9e. Hence, it is likely that the S10 lineup may also include some other models.
Realme Narzo 30 5G and Narzo 30 Pro 5G are two faces of the same coin. It is one of the few cases in which the Pro variant is not necessarily better than the vanilla version under every aspect. Given that most of the specifications of these two devices are similar, with this specs comparison we will focus on the differences rather than telling you which one is the best. They carry two different price tags, but the compromises are not many: let’s discover together which one should fit your needs the most.

Design
Despite it is the vanilla version, the Realme Narzo 30 5G has a more attractive design. With that stripe on the left, it looks very futuristic and original while offering a thinner body than the Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G, even though it has the same battery capacity. The vanilla Narzo 30 5G is even lighter than its Pro variant, and this makes it even more attractive when it comes to aesthetics. Both the phones have narrow bezels, a punch-hole design, and a side-mounted fingerprint reader, as well as a rectangle-shaped camera module and a polycarbonate body.
Display
Realme Narzo 30 5G and Narzo 30 Pro 5G are equipped with exactly the same display. It is an IPS panel with a 90 Hz refresh rate, a diagonal of 6.5 inches, a 480 nits typical brightness, and a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. We are not talking about a high-end panel and neither a great midrange panel, but it is sufficient for every kind of user for both detail and image quality. Further, its good refresh rate will please gamers and those who want a smoother viewing experience. Given that it is an IPS panel, it does not provide the deepest colors and it does not integrate a fingerprint reader. It is an average panel like the ones you can often find on a lower-midrange phone.
Specs & Software
The Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G is able to provide superior performance to the vanilla Nazro 30 5G because of its stronger processor. It is a Dimensity 800U by MediaTek, a definitely better SoC compared with the Dimensity 700 found on its more affordable sibling. Further, with the Pro variant, you can also get more RAM: up to 8 GB. The internal storage of the most expensive variant is the same for both handsets: 128 GB. But the Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G also comes in a version with 64 GB of storage offering a higher value for money. Note that Narzo 30 Pro 5G has Android 10 out of the box, while Narzo 30 5G has Android 11.
Camera
Realme Narzo 30 5G and 30 Pro 5G have a triple camera department which includes the same main sensor: a 48 MP camera with an f/1.8 focal aperture. You can find this kind of sensor on most of the lower mid-range phones in the market: it is able to click good photos in good light conditions, but not amazing ones. The Pro variant differs from the vanilla version due to the presence of an additional 8 MP ultrawide camera paired with a 2 MP macro camera, while the standard Narzo 30 5G has just a pair of 2 MP sensors for macros and depth calculations. The front cameras are the same: a 16 MP sensor with f/2.1 focal aperture. These phones are able to record 4K videos from the rear camera and 1080p videos from the front camera.
At last, Realme Narzo 30 5G and Narzo 30 Pro 5G feature the same battery capacity: 5000 mAh. Their chipsets are built with the same production process and the display is the same, so they provide more or less the same battery life. The Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G wins the fast charging comparison with a power of 30W, while Narzo 30 5G has just 18W.
Price
Realme Narzo 30 5G is priced at Rs. 15,999 / $215 in India, while the Pro version costs Rs. 16,290 / $220. If we exclude that the vanilla Narzo 30 5G has Android 11 out of the box while the Pro variant has Android 10, the Narzo 30 Pro 5G is definitely a better phone and it even offers a higher value for money with the actual prices.
Realme Narzo 30 5G vs Narzo 30 Pro 5G: PRO and CONS
A revolutionary remote health monitoring service, called YouCare has just been launched at the ongoing Mobile World Conference (MWC) 2021 holding in Barcelona, Spain. YouCare is based on a new technology that enables excellent health monitoring using a t-shirt with sensors embedded and data transmission via the 5G network. The t-shirt is a washable and reusable textile material and looks like a regular t-shirt.
The YouCare project is conceptualized to develop textile devices that can be used for health monitoring without the use of invasive and uncomfortable metal materials. The t-shirt was wholly developed in Italy, according to the developers, can detect several vital bio-markers in the body and transmit them seamlessly using the 5G network infrastructure provided by Chinese network infrastructure provider ZTE.
At the launch of the project today in Barcelona, ZTE stressed its joy at being part of the team that has produced the revolutionary health service monitoring project. The company underscored again, the tremendous opportunities that could be harnessed using the 5G network. ZTE further reiterated its continued support for the innovative work by the Italian team. The company also says it will initiate the YouCare 5G test soon.
YouCare works by detecting bio-vital health parameters using imperceptible polymeric sensors embedded on the shirt. A miniaturized control records the data, which is then converted to digital format. This data is then sent to a bidirectional platform, which then transmits the data to a smartphone or smartwatch. The data could also be transmitted to a remote unit for analysis.
Several vital health parameters can be detected by the YouCare t-shart. These bio-vital parameters include respiratory act analysis, electrocardiogram, sweat, and muscle activity that could help to identify various health conditions using the textile sensors. The data generated is then sent through 5G infrastructure enabled by ZTE to dedicated centers or individual users. The project could dramatically expand access to healthcare to a wide array of persons and remote monitoring can be really helpful in assisting those with chronic ailments to get a prompt attention on the go. Several stakeholders like the International Red Cross, are excited at the prospects of the project.
The pursuit of textile monitoring technology could hold the key to several innovative breakthroughs like telemedicine, sports, work, and so on. When this technology is then combined with the super-fast 5G network, the opportunities could be very huge. For one thing, unlike the smart wearable devices whose area of contact with the body is only the wrist, the new t-shirt offers a wider surface area for data acquisition.

There are multiple services that send OTP messages to you when you want to carry out a transaction or as a form of authentication when you want to register or log in. These messages clog up the inbox, especially if you don’t delete them immediately. If you use Google Messages, then you won’t have to worry about these messages.
Among the new features that Google will be rolling out to its Messages app in India is the autodeletion of OTP messages after a period – specifically 24 hours. Users will be able to turn on the feature as seen in the gif below and this should help you clear your inbox.
Google has also announced that the app will use machine learning to automatically sort your messages into categories. Messages will now be classified into personal, transactions, OTPs, and offers, making it easier for you to find a particular message.
These new features will begin rolling out to Indian users (Android 8 and up) in the next few weeks in English. Google reiterates that these features are optional and can be turned off under the settings menu in Messages. There is no news yet on when it will be available for other regions.
