CAD renders of Mi Pad 5′ keyboard accessory confirms stylus support

By

It is no longer news that Xiaomi will be launching a new tablet this year. Expected to arrive as the Mi Pad 5, the tablet will pack flagship specs such as a Snapdragon 800 series processor and a display with a 120Hz refresh rate. A new leak has surfaced and it gives us an early look at two of the tablet’s accessories.

The leak comes as CAD renders shared on Weibo by Digital Chat Station and they are of a keyboard+cover accessory for the upcoming tablet. According to the source, the final product is slightly different but these images should give us an idea of what to expect.

The renders show the keyboard will also double as a case for the tablet. As shown below, it has a squircle cut-out for the rear camera(s) and a slot for a stylus. There is even a stylus with a cylindrical design stored in the space. This means that the Mi Pad 5 will support stylus input, a first for a Xiaomi device.

The keyboard itself has island-style keys and doesn’t have a trackpad like that of the new Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Pro or the iPad Pro‘s Magic Keyboard. Also, rather than a kickstand or a floating design like that Magic Keyboard offers, the Mi Pad 5’s case has four grooves that the other half locks into. The Mi Pad 5 will connect to the keyboard via pogo pins.

While the keyboard will be an optional accessory, we do not know if Xiaomi will bundle the tablet with a stylus like Samsung does with its own high-end tablets. Nevertheless, we are excited and can’t wait for the Mi Pad 5 to be announced. When it arrives, it won’t be an easy ride as it will be going up against Lenovo’s Xiaoxin Pad series and Huawei’s new MatePad tablets.

Apple Watch’s heart rate monitor saves Michigan woman from a potentially fatal heart attack

By

Apple Watch, like many other smart wearable devices, has transformed into a vital health tool that can be a lifesaver. The heart rate monitor is one of the most important features of the Apple Watch. It is capable of ultimately enhancing the lifestyle of the user and can even be a lifesaver. The heart rate monitor looks like the standout sensor of the Apple Watch due to its importance in highlighting a user’s vital measurement and the ease of the interpretation of the readings.

A Norton Shores, Michigan woman Diane Feenstra, has apparently been saved from a potentially fatal heart attack after getting a very high heart rate reading from her Apple Watch even though she had not physically exerted herself. Her Apple Watch on the day of the incident logged a 169 beats/ minute reading, which led Diane to call her husband of 48 years, who immediately directed her to call a doctor.

Fortunately, she was taken to the hospital, where an ECG revealed that she had a heart attack due to a blocked widow artery, which is a fatal condition. Diane, after that, underwent a successful stent procedure, and she is back to her feet, thankful for the gift of the Apple Watch given her by her husband. Indeed, Diane first bought an Apple Watch gift for her husband, who reciprocated with an Apple Watch gift to his wife.

Smart wearable devices, including the lineup of Apple Watches, are increasingly used as health and fitness tools, among a host of several functionalities. Apart from the heart rate monitor, many other sensors provide vital measurements that could effectively gauge the user’s health status. The Fall Protection feature in Apple Watch is another feature that has also proved a lifesaver recently. Apple will continue to evolve features in its smartwatches that will stand them out and safeguard users’ lives.

Samsung will announce a new pair of wireless earbuds at its Galaxy Unpacked event scheduled for next month. There have been multiple leaks related to the earbuds which will arrive as the Galaxy Buds2 but a new leak that surfaced today gives us our best look at them yet.

The leak comes in form of three gifs posted on Twitter by Evan Blass and they show the Galaxy Buds in White, Lavender Purple, and Olive Green. However, unlike previous Galaxy Buds that come in a case with matching colors, all the colors of the Galaxy Buds2 come in a white case, though the interior has the same color as the earbuds.

While the new earbuds still have an in-ear design, the design has changed. They also look smaller now and come in the same squircle carrying case as the Galaxy Buds Live and the Galaxy Buds Pro.

The case of the Galaxy Buds2 has a USB-C port at the back but it should also support wireless charging. There is an LED in front to indicate when the case is charging and another inside that lights up when the earbuds are charging.

With respect to features, Ice Universe has revealed that the earbuds have active noise cancellation and better bass. It has been previously reported that each of the earbuds may have a battery capacity of 60mAh while the case will have a battery capacity of 500mAh.

Huawei launched the HUAWEI Mate40 series in late October 2020. The PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate40 RS is the most expensive model in the lineup. Initially, the device only came in two storage configurations. A third variant was released in early May 2021. Two months later, the company has now quietly discontinued the first two versions.

The PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate40 RS debuted in two memory variants – 12GB + 256 and 12GB + 512GB in China. Internationally, it was only made available in 12GB + 512GB version.

A couple of months back in May, the company launched a new 8GB + 256GB variant for its home country. Since then, the two 12GB models have been mostly out of stock in the region.

Now, according to a Huawei-focussed tipster on Weibo, the company has discontinued the 12GB RAM variants of the PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate40 RS. As per him, the firm will only sell the newly introduced 8GB + 256GB version going forward.

He asks people to purchase the new variant instead of waiting for the 12GB RAM model. He even criticizes the offline retailers and customer service for giving false hopes on the availability of the higher RAM variant in the future.

Interested customers can buy the PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate40 RS with 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage for  ¥10,999 ($1,701).

The non-availability of certain models and re-release of multiple premium smartphones with 4G chips clearly say that Huawei is severely affected by the US ban as well as the global semiconductor shortage. The company’s smartphone market share has been now occupied by OPPO, vivo, and Xiaomi in China as well as global markets.

Carl Pei reveals features and price of the Nothing ear (1)

This month is an important one for Carl Pei, the former OnePlus co-founder who left to start his own company last year. The new startup will unveil its first product by the end of the month and it will arrive as the Nothing ear (1). Ahead of the launch, the entrepreneur has granted an interview that reveals key details about the earbuds as well as the company.

Nothing ear (1) launch

Nothing ear (1) design

Speaking to Techcrunch, Carl Pei revealed that the delay with the release of the ear (1) had nothing to do with supply issues but the transparent design. He disclosed that making a high-quality transparent product is extremely difficult as they had to consider certain parameters (magnets and glue type) that wouldn’t have mattered if the product was opaque.

Nothing ear (1) features

The Nothing ear (1) will have three high-definition microphones and active noise cancellation alongside other features found on the AirPods Pro. However, it will sell for a much affordable price than the $249 Apple charges for its earbuds. You don’t have to wait until the launch date to find out how much it will cost as the CEO has let the cat out of the bag.

Nothing ear (1) price and availability

The Nothing ear (1) will be priced at $99 in the U.S., €99 in Europe, and £99 in the U.K. That makes it a direct competitor to the new Pixel Buds A series. Pei revealed that they are able to keep the price tag fair because they will be primarily sold online. The manufacturer revealed a few weeks ago that the earbuds will be sold by Flipkart in India.

The earbuds will launch first in the U.K., India, Europe, and North America before making their way to Japan, Korea, and other regions later.  The Nothing ear (1) will be announced on July 27.

Plans for Essential

Shortly after Nothing was formed, the company acquired Essential. In the interview, Carl Pei revealed that they acquired the company for its trademark as it was one of the names they wanted to call the company before settling for Nothing. He added that not only will Essential IP not appear in its first product but they “don’t have any plans to do anything with Essential”!

So if you have had your hopes up about Essential being resurrected by Nothing, they have just been dashed. However, that isn’t to say Nothing can’t change its mind in the future.

Chinese owned Nexperia to acquire UK’s largest chipmaker Newport Wafer Fab: Report

By

Nexperia, the Dutch semiconductor based company that is a subsidiary of China based firm Wingtech Technology, is apparently planning on buying Newport Wafer Fab, which is the largest chip maker in the US.

According to a SCMP report, Nexperia is planning on acquiring the UK chip maker for a 63 million Pounds (roughly 87 US Dollars). The report arrives from anonymous sources close to the matter last week. The news of the deal arrives amid Beijing’s push for technological self reliance. This move has led to the Chinese government pouring resources into the development of local semiconductor industry. The effort is primarily driven by US sanctions that have disrupted the supply chains of Chinese companies.

Chinese

At the moment, experts in the UK have expressed their concerns regarding security about the Nexperia-Newport deal. A Nexperia spokesperson said the company is still in talks with the Newport Wafer Fab and the Welsh government but has declined to further comment on the matter. Notably, Wingtech had purchased stakes worth 4.14 billion US Dollars into Nexperia, acquiring 80 percent stake in the Dutch firm. This share has now increased to 98.2 percent last year, with the Chinese firm buying out stakes in Nexperia to expand into semiconductor technology.
