During Microsoft’s fall event in 2019, it announced three new products Surface Duo and Surface Neo dual-screen devices, and Windows 10X OS. Initially, the Windows 10X was designed for dual-screen devices, but later it claimed that it will be available for single-screen devices like notebooks. A final-like build of the Windows 10X had leaked earlier this year. Fresh information reveals that the company has reportedly discontinued the Windows 10X OS.

The Surface Duo, which ran on Android OS was met with a lackluster response. The Surface Neo was expected to arrive with Windows 10X onboard. Nothing much was heard about the Neo after Microsoft had claimed in May 2020 that it will be brought to single-screen devices first.

The Windows 10X was expected to offer a simplified experience like the Chrome OS. According to Petri, people familiar with the new developments at Microsoft have revealed that the company has reportedly put the Window 10X OS on the back burner. Instead of it, the company plans to enhance the experience of the Windows 10 OS.

Microsoft is expected to announce a new version of Windows 10 with a refreshed UX later this year. It may offer users a revamped user interface. Reports suggest that while Microsoft may have stopped working on 10X, some of its elements are expected to arrive on Windows 10 later this year.

A Canalys market research revealed that the sales of the Chromebook increased dramatically increased by 265 percent in Q1 2021. Microsoft does need a product to rival the Chrome OS. It remains to be seen whether the new version of Windows 10 will be able to rival Chrome OS.

The Redmi K40 Gaming edition is expected to launch as the POCO F3 GT in India. Probably, it will launch alongside the POCO M3 Pro 5G, which is also rumored to be in the works for India. While POCO is yet to confirm the existence of these devices, an online retailer has listed the POCO F3 GT with entire specifications and pricing.

The POCO F3 GT’s listing at WelEletronics shows that it is priced at $1,299 (~Rs 95,000). The smartphone is expected to arrive in India with a pricing of around Rs 25,000 (~$341).

In the last quarter of 2020, Xiaomi launched a pair of truly wireless earphones called Mi Air 2 Pro in China. The main highlight of this product is the presence of ANC (Active Noise Cancellation). Now, seven months later, the company is teasing yet another TWS with ANC.

Earlier today, the official Xiaomi Smart Life Weibo account posted a teaser render of an upcoming pair of truly wireless earphones. Unfortunately, the picture only showcases the rear side of the TWS’ charging case.

Also, both the image and the post do not reveal much about the product. All they say is that the charging case of these new ANC-equipped wireless earbuds from Xiaomi will flaunt the company’s new logo. The firm also claims that this product is designed in line with the new ‘Xiaomi’ logo.

This audio accessory could be called ‘Mi Noise Reduction Pro’ (translated) in China, as per the hashtag used in the teaser post. Last but not least, these earbuds will be launching on May 13.

Although not much is known about this product as of today, we expect to learn more about it before its official release later this week. Above all, information about these earbuds should come from this very same Xiaomi Smart Life Weibo account in the form of teasers in the next few days.

Recent reports have claimed Xiaomi is working on the Mi Pad 5 series of tablets. Some rumors have claimed that it will be launching this month. However, Redmi’s Product Manager Wang Teng Thomas was recently seen telling a Weibo user that the Mi Pad 5 lineup is expected to launch in the second half of the year. Hence, there is a possibility that the device may not launch until July. Today, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station also claimed that it won’t be launching soon.

Last month, a Xiaomi device was spotted with model number M2105K81C was spotted at the IMEI database last month. According to the tipster, it could be the topmost model in the Mi Pad 5 series. He had previously claimed that the new tablets from Xiaomi will debut this month. However, he is now claiming that it will take some for the Mi Pad 5 family to launch.

Past reports have claimed that the K81C model is equipped with an 11-inch LCD panel that supports 2560 x 1600 pixels resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 480Hz touch sampling rate. The Snapdragon 870 chipset could be powering the chipset with a battery of around 8,720mAh capacity.

For security, it may feature a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. It is expected to offer users software features like dual-screen mode, drag and drop, handheld PC mode, and parallel windows.

There seem to be two more variants of the K81C such as K81 and K81A. These are reportedly codenamed Enuma and Elish, respectively. There is another model with K82 at the ending of its model number. The K82 variant is expected to feature Snapdragon 860 (855+) or 855 chipset.

LG Innotek to sell LED patents and equipment to Chinese company

May 10, 2021

LG Innotek, a company that makes smartphone parts such as mini vibration motors, LCD modules, light-emitting diode (LED), camera modules, protection circuit modules, and more is selling patents and equipment related to its LED business to a China-based LED company, reports The Elec.

As per the report, the South Korean company will clean out equipment related to LED at its Paju pant within one month. The company will be handing over more than 10,000 patents related to LED to the Chinese firm.

By selling the patents, the company will not only receive money but will also be saving around 1 billion won in maintaining those patents. It is being said that LG initiated talks to sell its LED patents and equipment for 100 billion won in a turn-key fashion.

On the other hand, the Chinese company will be making profits in the LED business given that it can rely on subsidies given by the local government. It will also be able to offer more products in the market.

LG had invested heavily in the LED business, especially in the Ultraviolet (UV) LED area which is likely the reason for the deal to go through. Experts believe that LG could have licensed the UV LED patents instead of selling them.

For those who are unaware, South Korea-based LG Innotek had decided to exit the LED business in October 2019 and had attempted to sell its LED facilities in China and South Korea in the second quarter of 2020 but those business talks were delayed mainly because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

May 10, 2021

Samsung has regained the top spot in the global smartphone market and now to strengthen its position as a market leader, it seems that the South Korean giant is looking to launch new smartphones in August this year.

As per the report coming from Korea, Samsung is currently in talks with local network carriers related to the launch of its new smartphone models in the coming months, including the Galaxy S21 FE, Galaxy Z Fold 3, and Galaxy Z Flip 3.

If this report turns out to be true, then the company will be launching the smartphones earlier than its usual schedule of launch in September. The devices could fill the gap of the Galaxy Note-series phones that are usually launched in the month of August. Samsung has hinted that the company won’t be launching new Note-series phones this year.

The company had also launched its flagship Galaxy S-series smartphones of the year — the Samsung Galaxy S21 lineup in January, about a month earlier than its usual timeline to take on Apple as its new iPhone 12 series was in demand.

This new report about smartphones launch in August is in line with the previous reports. The Galaxy S21 FE will reportedly go into mass production in July and will be available for purchase a month later. The upcoming foldable smartphones from the company are also expected to launch in August with some new features.

Recently, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 appeared with its SM-F7110 model number on the 3C certification website which shows that the 5G phone may ship with a 15W charger. Nothing more is revealed in the listing but the phone may soon appear in TENAA’s database with more details in the coming weeks. There’s a possibility that the phone may come with support for S-Pen.

According to the report from Strategy Analytics, Samsung was the world’s top smartphone vendor in the first quarter of this year (Q1 2021) with shipments of 77 million units, accounting for a 23 percent market share.

SpaceX accepts dogecoin as payment to launch its lunar mission

May 10, 2021

A few months ago, Tesla announced that it invested $1.5 billion in Bitcoin and had also revealed that it would start accepting Bitcoin as payment for buying its cars. Now, another Elon Musk-led company is following the suit.

SpaceX will be launching the “DOGE-1 Mission to the Moon” in the first quarter of next year and the company will be accepting cryptocurrency dogecoin as payment, revealed Elon Musk in a tweet.

The development follows a tweet by Elon Musk in April that SpaceX was going to put a “literal Dogecoin on the literal moon”.

Canadian engineering firm Geometric Energy Corporation has partnered with SpaceX to launch its DOGE-1 CubeSat to the Moon in the first quarter of 2022. The mission will launch aboard a Falcon 9 rocket. The 88-pound CubeSat will collect “lunar-spatial intelligence” through a combination of cameras and sensors, says the company.

In the statement released by Geometric Energy, SpaceX Vice President of Commercial Sales Tom Ochinero said: “This mission will demonstrate the application of cryptocurrency beyond Earth orbit and set the foundation for interplanetary commerce.”

Dogecoin lost more than a third of its price on Sunday after Musk called it a ‘hustle’ during his guest-host spot on the “Saturday Night Live” comedy sketch TV show.

For those who are unaware, the cryptocurrency dogecoin began as a social media joke, and after Musk’s tweets earlier this year, the almost obscure digital currency came back into the market. It has jumped more than 800% over the last month and is now the fourth-largest digital currency, with a market capitalization of $73 billion.

May 10, 2021

The TV consoles are getting a lot more powerful than earlier as the requirement for gaming keeps on increasing. The newly announced Apple TV 4K powered by the A12 Bionic chipset doesn’t live up to the expectations and indicates that the tech giant isn’t focusing on gaming performance.

However, it now seems that the company is working on a new portal hybrid console for gaming which will be powered by a new chipset with performance improvements and enhanced graphics processing.

The report coming from Wccftech, citing a Korean community website Clien reveals that the upcoming hybrid portal console from Apple will be similar to the Nintendo Switch. This means that Apple is now looking to have a product that directly targets gamers.

The rumored upcoming product might have room for a powerful cooling system that sets it apart from the existing powerful devices from the brand such as iPhone and iPad. Also, the hybrid portal console will also be powered by a new chipset which will be different from the existing A-series and M-series SoC.

Further, the report adds that Apple is negotiating with notable game developers like Ubisoft to bring exclusive games to Apple Arcade. It will be interesting to see how the company integrates the upcoming console with its gaming-focused service Apple Arcade.

Earlier, the company was rumored to launch a Mac device focusing on gaming needs in 2020 but as we all know that didn’t happen. So, we would advise you to take this information about a new portal hybrid console with a pinch of salt.

May 10, 2021

The desktop version of Samsung‘s SmartThings app is now available on Windows 10. The SmartThings app helps users control their smart home gadgets via the app. Google Nest support was recently incorporated into the Android version of the SmartThings app, which further expanded the app’s functionality.

The growing partnership between Samsung and Microsoft has now led to the release of the SmartThings app for Windows 10. This will enable users to sync their Android app with the desktop version and control their connected smart home devices via their PC. With a growing array of compatible smart home devices, the SmartThings app has become an important tool to remotely monitor and control activities in the home.

The SmartThings app for Windows 10 can be downloaded from the Microsoft Store. However, unlike the Android version, the SmartThings app for Windows 10 cannot be used to add new smart devices presently. The Windows app also lacks support for Google Nest devices, which do not even show on the app. While rooms created for Nest devices can be seen in the Windows app, the cameras and thermostats are absent.

It is not known whether the features of the Samsung SmartThings app for Windows 10 would be further expanded. This would now put it at par with the Android version. The SmartThings app provides a broad interface for users to interact seamlessly with their smart home gadgets. It can also be used in combination with other features to locate a lost or stolen Samsung AirTag.

This partnership between Samsung and Microsoft is expected to blossom going forward. We could see further developments in the app segment or new aspects examined by both companies.

New Redmi K40 Gaming phone with Dimensity 1100 could be coming soon

May 10, 2021

Last month, Redmi announced the Redmi K40 Gaming as its first gaming-focused smartphone. The handset came with mechanical gaming trigger buttons. Before its launch, the rumor mill speculated that there will be another variant of the phone with an inferior chipset. Both models were expected to break cover at the same time, but the company only announced the Redmi K40 Gaming. A tipster from China has shared the key specs of the other model. Probably, Redmi could be planning to launch it this month in China.

In February, Digital Chat Station claimed that the Redmi K40 Gaming phone has two chipset versions that are powered by MT6893 (Dimensity 1200) and MT6891 (Dimensity 1100). While the former has already launched, Redmi is yet to confirm the arrival of the latter.

Redmi K40 Gaming Edition — Redmi K40 Gaming

New information shared by the tipster reveals that the Dimensity 1100 SoC powered edition of the Redmi K40 Gaming phone’s display has a centrally aligned punch-hole, and it supports a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. It has a 64-megapixel main camera on the back, and it carries support for 67W fast charging for its 5,000mAh battery.

Probably, this phone could be hitting the Chinese markets as a Lite version of the Redmi K40 Gaming. The K40 Gaming phone begins at 1,999 Yuan (~$311). Hence, there is a possibility that its Dimensity 1100 SoC variant may start around 1,599 Yuan (~$249) or 1,699 Yuan (~$264).

The model number of the Redmi K40 Gaming is M2104K10C. It appears that the M2104K10AC, which was spotted at places like 3C, TENAA, and Master Lu benchmarks could be the Redmi K40 Gaming Lite. The Master Lu listing revealed that it has an FHD+ display, Dimensity 1100 chipset, 8 GB of RAM, and 256 GB of built-in storage. The alleged Redmi K40 Gaming Lite may debut later this month.

The phone’s left edge has a SIM card slot, whereas its right spine has a volume controller and a power key. The absence of a side-mounted fingerprint scanner suggests that it could be featuring an in-display fingerprint sensor.

The rear shell of the Play5 has a squarish camera island, which houses a quad-camera setup and an LED flash unit at the center. The design of the back panel is different from a leaked render that had appeared last month.

Honor Play5 specifications (Rumored)

It was revealed by Digital Chat Station last month that the Honor Play5 has a Full HD+ OLED screen of 6.53 inches. The handset has a thickness of only 7.46mm and weighs 179 grams.

The Play5 is powered by the Dimensity 800U chipset and a 3800mAh battery. It is expected to arrive with support for 66W fast charging. The phone is likely to offer an Android 11 OS out-of-the-box experience.

The Honor Play5’s rear camera module has a main camera of 64-megapixel, an ultrawide lens of 8-megapixel, and a pair of 2-megapixel cameras, probably for capturing macro and depth shots.

HMD Global has been quite slow with the roll-out of Android 11 to its devices. For a brand that brags about how great it is when it comes to software updates, this is disappointing. Now, a new Android 11 roadmap released by the manufacturers reveals the update will be arriving later for some phones.

According to the roadmap shared on the official Nokia Community forums, the rollout which was originally planned to end by the second quarter of 2021 will now end in the third quarter.

Devices such as the Nokia 9 PureView, the Nokia 7.2, and the Nokia 6.2 will now receive the Android 11 update in the third quarter of the year and it appears it will be towards the end of the quarter.

The Nokia 1 Plus, Nokia 1.3, and Nokia 1.4 which are all Android Go phones will get their updates in the second quarter along with the Nokia 5.3 that was originally supposed to get updated back in Q4 2020. The Nokia 3.4 and Nokia 5.4 are also among the devices getting the update this quarter.

Will HMD Global stick to this adjusted schedule? Only time will tell.

Clipt is a cross-platform clipboard/file-sharing tool by OnePlus’ OneLab

By

May 9, 2021

Late last month, OnePlus announced OneLab, a 9-member startup within the company that was created to design for OnePlus’ OS new features that suit users in various markets. The team worked on some of the OxygenOS 11 features such as Insight AOD and the newest version of Zen Mode. However, OneLab isn’t limited to just in-house features seeing as it has announced its first cross-platform app called Clipt.

Clipt is a clipboard tool that also doubles as a file-sharing tool and it is designed to work across different platforms. There is an Android app already while an iOS app is in development, and for PCs and Macs, there is a Chrome extension.

OneLab says the tool allows you to “Seamlessly and safely send text, photos, and files between devices”. Once you have the app installed on your devices, you can copy a text on one (phone or PC) and paste it on others. You can also use it to share files. It is able to do this by creating a link that connects your clipboard between devices. What is important is that you use the same Google account across these devices. This is because Clipt actually uses your Google Drive to transfer data.

Clipt doesn’t have access to your whole drive but creates a silo within it for what you share between your devices. It is also encrypted and can’t read the content of what you send. And when you copy a file or text, the device creates an anonymous File ID that it shares with the linked devices, so they know what text or file to download. To prevent your drive from filling up, Clipt only keeps the last 10 items you copied, anything after that is automatically deleted.

A few days ago, Sharp announced it will have a new product announcement on Monday, May 10. The event was supposed to be for the launch of its latest flagship phone, the Sharp AQUOS R6, but that will no longer be the case.

The Japanese manufacturer’s official Twitter account revealed yesterday that it has decided to postpone the smartphone launch which quite a number of fans were looking forward to. No reason was given for the change in plans neither was a new date announced. Sharp did say in another tweet that it will announce a new date once it has been decided.

Press renders of the Sharp AQUOS R6 flagship were posted on Twitter on Friday, giving us an early look at the flagship phone. From the images, the phone will have a curved display with a centered punch hole for the front-facing camera while the back is home to two cameras, two less than that of its predecessor, the AQUOS R5G. The main camera is a pretty large one and we can’t wait to see what tricks and features it has. One of the press renders even reveals that the phone was co-engineered with Leica.

The AQUOS R6 is expected to have a QHD+ resolution and a high refresh rate with Gorilla Glass protection. A Snapdragon 888 processor should power the device. Like its previous flagships, this too should have an IP68 rating.

A flaw in Qualcomm modems could expose millions of smartphone users to hackers

By

Jed John Ikoba

May 9, 2021

A security flaw has been discovered in Qualcomm’s chipsets that make it vulnerable to hackers. A report by Check Point Research says Qualcomm modems can be exploited to listen to conversations by a phone user, steal data and hide malware. Qualcomm’s Mobile Station Modem (MSM) has had a long history dating back to the 1990s, providing wireless connectivity support for mobile devices for several generations, up to 5G. The security firm Check Point Research says the MSM can be hacked remotely as easily as through an SMS.

Smartphones that are powered by Qualcomm chipsets are potential targets of hackers, according to the report. The vulnerability is higher for users without regular updates of their security patches, and regular software updates should be done. When the hackers gain access to a vulnerable device, they may be able to listen to calls, read through messages, and possibly unlock the SIM to gain access to private data for criminal purposes.

According to the security report, hackers can use this vulnerability in the modem to remotely control it and dynamically patch it from the application processor. The jacket could inject malicious code into the modem via Android, and access the smartphone user’s call history, messages, and calls.

However, an official statement from Qualcomm indicates that the security issue has already been fixed since December 2020 with the appropriate software updates. Therefore we believe that subsequent software updates since then could have further enhanced the security of the devices from attackers. There has not been any official response from Google on the flaws relating to Android, although there are rumors that the fix could be addressed shortly.
