OnePlus Nord N100, Nord N10 5G could launch in India

Last year, OnePlus launched the OnePlus Nord N100 and the OnePlus Nord N10 5G as its first budget smartphones. These two handsets are only sold in select few markets. Now, months after their release, the duo could make their debut in India.

OnePlus Nord N100 and OnePlus Nord N10 5G

According to an automated OnePlus update tracker Telegram channel (via MySmartPrice), the company has released India-specific OxygenOS builds for the OnePlus Nord N100 and the OnePlus Nord N10 5G. 

There were only two regional software builds for these two smartphones prior to this. But now, with the addition of India, the number of builds has been incremented to three for both of them

However, we cannot tell for sure if the brand is planning to launch these handsets in India. Also, it will be weird if OnePlus debuts these devices in the country since they are already six months old.

Anyway, we don’t think that these phones will make their way to India because the budget smartphone competition in the country is intense. The OnePlus Nord N100 and the OnePlus Nord N10 5G pale in comparison with devices from Xiaomi and OnePlus’ sister brand realme.

But we cannot rule out the possibility as there are OxygenOS builds for India. However, we can expect the OnePlus Ebba (OnePlus Nord N10 5G successor) to launch in the region as it has been certified by BIS.

Telecom Italia reportedly looking to drop Huawei from its 5G network

Telecom Italia is looking to cancel to contract with Huawei for supplying equipment to build part of the telecom firm’s 5G network in the country, reports Reuters citing sources aware of the development.

If the company goes ahead with the plan, then it will be a major blow to the Chinese telecom giant as Telecom Italia is one of Huawei’s biggest clients in Europe. The company has already lost some business to its rivals Nokia and Ericsson.

Huawei Logo

The development comes as the United States has been pressuring its allies to ban Huawei equipment from their 5G infrastructure, citing a national security risk. However, in the European region, only Britain and Sweden have banned Huawei for 5G.

Now, this new report, citing a source aware of the development, claims that Telecom Italia has sent a letter to Huawei informing its intention to call off the contract. The development was first reported by the newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore.

Earlier, the plan of the Italian company was to give the contract to Huawei and Ericsson but later the company split in among three companies by bringing Nokia to the mix. But now it seems that the contract will be split between Nokia and Ericsson.

Huawei was already excluded from the core of the 5G network which is used for processing sensitive data. The new development related to the Chinese giant comes after a review of supply policy, including a cost and benefit analysis, says the report.

Samsung trademarks S Foldable display for future foldable device

Samsung is expected to launch new foldable smartphones this year. But prior to any official announcement, the company has applied for a trademark for S Foldable displays, which might be the screen panels used in these upcoming flexible devices. Samsung

According to a LetsGoDigital report, the South Korean tech giant filed for a trademark with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) and the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO) for the name ‘S Foldable.’ The news arrives amid other rumors of upcoming launches for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3. While these devices are likely to arrive sometime in the future with designs similar to the predecessor, the company is apparently also working on a new extra large foldable tablet device as well.

One of the unique aspect about the S Foldable display is likely its Z shared hinge design, which implies that the foldable smartphone will feature two hinge mechanism for a single display. Meaning, the handset would fold twice. The report also adds that this technology might also be seen with the Galaxy Z Fold Tab that could release later this year, but is more likely to be unveiled sometime in 2022. The ‘S’ in the trademark name is likely a hint towards the dual folding design that showcases its S shaped fold.

Samsung

In the past, we had reported on the company patenting devices that have the S or Z shaped folding design. So, this might be the company’s move to trademark the design before the launch of a device that ships with it. Unfortunately, this is still a trademark application so finer details regarding any future launches are still unknown. So stay tuned for more updates regarding this matter.

PSA: Redmi K40 Gaming Edition does not support GMS installation

Earlier this week, Redmi launched the Redmi K40 Gaming Edition (aka Redmi K40 Game Enhanced Edition) in China. We got our hands on a review unit. While playing around with the device, we found out that it does not support GMS (Google Mobile Services) installation.

Redmi K40 Gaming Edition Featured 02
Redmi K40 Gaming Edition

Back in February, Xiaomi confirmed that it will no longer include the GMS framework on its future smartphones running MIUI China ROM. With the MIUI 12.5 update, the company has been also removing the framework on older phones.

The firm claims that this move will reduce the storage space consumed by the OS. The Chinese handset maker even allows users to uninstall a bunch of system apps on MIUI 12.5.

Since the Redmi K40 Gaming Edition ships with MIUI 12.5 out of the box, it does not have the necessary GMS framework files that are required for Google apps and services. Hence, users cannot install GMS from the Mi App store on this phone.

We can confirm that this is the case with all the units and not only ours alone. We enquired about this matter with a local Mi Store executive. They revealed that the Redmi K40 Gaming Edition does not support GMS installation as of now. There are also multiple discussion threads on this issue on forums like Kuan.

That said, it is worth noting that Xiaomi could add the GMS framework in a future system update. Because the company had earlier stated that it will ship phones with the GMS framework based on demand. 

Since the Redmi K40 Game Enhanced Edition is the brand’s first gaming smartphone, it is already popular internationally. We expect more enthusiasts to import it. Hence, there’s a high chance Xiaomi could bring GMS installation support to this handset.

One side of the housing is a non display area, with this region housing the internal components.

Furthermore, the foldable smartphone from the brand is also designed to offer a full front screen body experience, which means that there will be no visible seems, notches or chin at the front. This is further supplemented by the folding mechanism itself, allowing for a better reading, gaming, and overall viewing experience, which is hinted by its supposed inward folding design. Unfortunately, it is unknown if the device would also sport a under display selfie shooter as well.

Redmi India has teased the arrival of a new smartphone. It has released an image of a box package that has key features of the upcoming phone mentioned on it. It can be said based on recent reports that the company could be teasing the arrival of the Redmi Note 10S smartphone.

The teaser suggests that the forthcoming Redmi phone will offer MIUI 12.5 experience, blazing fast performance, long-lasting battery, 64-megapixel main camera, and a super display. The three dots seem to show the three color variants of the device.

Xiaomi announced the Redmi Note 10, Note 10 Pro, and Note 10 Pro Max smartphones in India last month. In global markets, it unveiled other Note 10 models such as Redmi Note 10 5G and Redmi Note 10S. Recent reports have claimed that the company is planning to launch the Note 10S in India. The handset was recently seen at the Bureau of Indian Standards and Bluetooth SIG authorities recently.

A recent leak revealed that the Redmi Note 10S will arrive in color editions like grey, white, and blue in India. The leak also revealed that it may sell in variants like 6 GB RAM + 64 GB storage, 6 GB RAM + 128 GB storage, and 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage.

Apple was the top-selling brand for 5G smartphones in Q1 2021: Strategy Analytics

A new report from Canalys revealed that the South Korean giant Samsung has managed to regain the top position in the global smartphone market in the first quarter of this year, i.e. Q1 2021, and overtook Apple.

However, another report from Strategy Analytics (via Korean Times) has claimed that Samsung is no longer the world’s leading seller for 5G smartphones. That crown is now with Apple as it sold the most 5G-enabled smartphones in the first quarter of this year.

Apple Logo

The Apple iPhone 12 lineup, launched in October last year, is the first from the company that comes with support for 5G connectivity. This isn’t surprising given that due to the demand for the phones, it was already expected that Apple might sell the most 5G phones.

What’s surprising is that Samsung has slipped to the fourth position and its market share for the 5G smartphones decreased from 34.6 percent during the same period last year to just 12.7 percent. This is after the fact that the company shipped 17 million 5G smartphones in Q1 2021, which represents an increase of 105 percent YoY.

On the other hand, Apple sold 40.4 million 5G iPhones during Q1 2021, capturing a massive 30.2 percent market share. It’s noteworthy that Q1 2021 was the first quarter when all the new iPhone models were on sale.

With Huawei slowly going out of the picture in this segment, other Chinese smartphone makers benefited. OPPO managed to double its market share to 16.1 percent, grabbing the second position for the 5G smartphones as it shipped 21.5 million units.

Vivo stood third for the 5G smartphones shipments with a monstrous growth of 646 percent compared to the same period last year and shipments of 19.4 million units. Xiaomi came fifth with 564 percent YoY growth and 16.6 million shipments.

Xiaomi to launch 30-inch Curved Ultrawide Monitor this year with 240Hz refresh rate: Report

A new has recently surfaced that reveals that Xiaomi is apparently gearing up for the launch of a new 30 inch Curved Ultrawide Monitor that will support 240Hz refresh rate display that will launch later this year.

xiaomi gaming monitor2

According to an ITHome report, the new Mi Monitor from the Chinese tech giant will launch during the 618 period in China. For those unaware, this is one of the largest mid year shopping festival in the region that was initially started by JD.com and has various brands offer special limited time offers and promotional deals. In other words, its a major shopping event in China with various customers seeking to buy new products similar to the Black Friday sale in the US.

Talking about the upcoming monitor itself, the monitor will sport a curved ultrawide panel, which has a 30 inch size. This makes it smaller than the 34 inch curved ultrawide monitor that is already available from Xiaomi. Furthermore, this new Mi Monitor is likely targeted towards gamers since it features 240Hz refresh rate as well. Unfortunately, finer details regarding this monitor is currently unknown at the moment.

Xiaomi

The company has experience in a curved ultrawide monitor, as it already sells a 34 inch variant that launched back in October 2019. This was the brand’s first monitor and offered a resolution of 3440x1440px and an aspect ratio of 21:9. The monitor had a 1500R curvature design, 121% sRGB color gamut support, and also had 144Hz refresh rate along with AMD FreeSync support. So, we can expect certain specifications to be similar if not an overall improvement.
