South Korean tech powerhouse Samsung is expected to hold the Galaxy Unpacked event on April 28 which is just days away. One of the products the tech giant is expected to unveil is the Galaxy Book Go. Now, expected specs of the entry-level notebook have appeared online ahead of the launch.
The details shared by WinFuture.de shows that the Galaxy Book Go will be the first ARM notebook to run on the Windows 10 operating system and offers several excellent features for its price. The laptop is said to adopt a retail price of around 449 Euros ($542) in Europe. The notebook will hit the US market for a starting price of $349 which should be for the non-LTE model.
Specs-wise, the Samsung Galaxy Book Go will feature a 14-inch HD display on an LCD screen. The laptop is LTE-enabled and weighs just 1.39kg. There are speculations that the LTE-capable version of the laptop will only be available in Germany, although no definitive statement has come out from Samsung in that regard. If the LTE version is specifically for the German market, then there would be other variants available to other markets.
The LTE version of the Samsung Galaxy Book Go has an LTE modem, USB multi ports with support for USB 2.0, Type-C, and USB 3.2, and Bluetooth 5.1 compatibility. The charging of the notebook’s battery is via the USB Type-C port, indicating fast charging capability, and the battery can last up to 18 hours on a full charge. The massive battery power of the notebook will surely endear it to a broad segment of the market, as its performance is far beyond the average.
Other expected features of the Galaxy Book Go include a fingerprint reader for customized unlocking of the laptop, a 720p camera, 4GB of RAM, and 128GB of internal memory which can be expanded to 1TB via a microSD card slot. The small size of the RAM and the fact that it cannot be extended may be a drawback of the Galaxy Book Go, although the present 4GB RAM is a bit decent for many applications. The processor is the ARM-based Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c, with eight computing cores and an integrated LTE modem.
The Samsung Galaxy Book Go can be used as a portable business companion that could be used while on the move without the fear of unavailability of electricity supply. The LTE-enabled version is expected to go on sale in Germany.
Samsung first unveiled the Neo QLED TV 4K/8K, its first mini-LED-based smart TVs at CES 2021. The smart TV only went on sale last month (March) in Korea and in select markets globally. The tech giant has now disclosed that the domestic sales of the Neo QLED smart TV has exceeded 10,000 units barely less than two- months since it went on sale. For the avoidance of doubt, the NEO QLED went on sale in Korea on March 3.
Apart from the Neo QLED, the company also disclosed that the total number of QED TVs sold locally in Korea reached 40,000 units as of April 23. This, the firm says, is more than twice the sales speed of last year’s QLED TV products during the same period, and is an indication of Samsung’s growing leadership of the premium TV market.
The company also disclosed that Neo QLED smart TVs utilizing Quantum mini LED technnology accounts for half of the total number of QLED TVs released this year. Data released also shows that about 75% of the new QLED TVs sold in its home turf is the 75-inch model.
In February this year, German AV Magazine rated the Neo QLED 8K TV as the “Best TV of all time”. The review team gave the TV model a score of 966 points, 10 points higher than the score recorded by the best Samsung QLED TV from 2020 which received a score of 956 points.
In particular, reference was made to the outstanding design, innovation, impressive contrast ratio, deep blacks, high brightness, and precise local dimming as a result of the Mini-LED technology. The Neo QLED 8K even features an Infinity screen with the bezels around the display only 2.3mm thick.
Samsung Neo QLED is equipped with various gaming functions to provide an optimal gaming environment such that even if you play for a long time, you can enjoy lively videos without worrying about burn-in. The product is also said to be the first in the TV industry to be certified as ‘Gaming TV Performance’ by the German certification body Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) in March.
To further boost domestic sales, Samsung has been running a promotion since April 1 dubbed ‘National Home Appliances Fiesta’ for popular home appliances including TVs. The promo has seen the company offer benefits worth up to KRW 1 million to customers who purchase the Neo QLED 8K after returning their existing TV.
As the internet has become a necessity, the focus for high-tech hardware for home use has grown to ensure better connectivity.

ZTE has silently announced a new phone named ZTE Yuanhang 10. It is an affordably priced 5G phone from the brand that offers key features like a high refresh rate screen, big internal storage, a 16-megapixel triple camera system, and a decent battery. At present, there is no word on the English name of the device.
ZTE Yuanhang 10 specifications and features
The ZTE Yuanhang 10 has a 6.52-inch IPS LCD that offers an HD+ resolution. The screen supports a 20:9 aspect, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a 180Hz touch sampling rate. The company claims that the thickness of the device is only 8.2mm.
The Yuanhang 10 is powered by the Dimensity 700 chipset. However, it is unclear whether the device features 4 GB or 6 GB of RAM, but it makes use of 2 GB of storage space as virtual memory. The handset offers users internal storage of 128 GB.

After announcing Techno Spark 7 and Spark 7P, Tecno has announced a new smartphone called the Spark 7 Pro. As the name suggests, it is the most powerful phone in the Spark 7 series from the brand. Some of its major highlights include a big display with support for a high refresh rate, a processor that is optimized for gaming, and a big battery.
Tecno Spark 7 Pro specifications and features
The Tecno Spark 7 Pro has a 6.6-inch LCD screen with a punch-hole placed at the upper-left corner. The screen supports a Full HD+ and it can offer a refresh rate of 90Hz in HD+ resolution. The device runs on HiOS 7.5 based Android 11 OS.

The Nubia Z series has been missing from the smartphone scene since the last model, the Nubia Z20 was announced back in August 2019. If you have been waiting for a successor, Ni Fei, the president of mobile devices at ZTE, has confirmed that a new model is on the way.
The top executive took to Weibo to reveal that the next generation Nubia Z series will be coming soon. The Weibo post also included a poll that asked fans what upgrades they expect. From the options, it is safe to assume the poll is a teaser for the upgrades the new phone will bring.
A lot has happened since the release of the Nubia Z20 and the smartphone space is now even more competitive. However, knowing Nubia, we can be sure the New Nubia Z series smartphone will have its own unique features that will give it an edge over the competition.
At the moment, we do not know what the new phone will be called. Will it be called Nubia Z21 so that it syncs with the year 2021 or will it be called Nubia Z30? Let us know what you think in the comment box below.
Also, we have no information about the number of phones that will be announced. While there was only one Nubia Z20 phone, its predecessor, the Nubia Z18 had a mid-range model that launched as the Nubia Z18 Mini and it was even announced before the flagship arrived months later.
Another important question is if the new Nubia Z series phone will have a dual-screen design like the Nubia Z20? With key Chinese manufacturers set to announce a foldable smartphone this year, maybe Nubia will surprise us too. If it does launch a foldable with an inward folding design, it can still be called a dual-screen phone, right?
Realme 8 Pro was the first model to hit the global market and it came alone, initially. But after a few weeks, two other handsets from the same lineup have been launched globally: the vanilla Realme 8 and the Realme 8 5G. Now, the 8 series for the global market consists of three different models, two of which are sold with the same price tag. Which is the best one and which one should you choose depending on your needs? This specs comparison will clear your ideas.

Design
The Realme 8 Pro has the sleekest design of the trio. Thanks to its smaller battery, the phone has a thinner body and it is even lighter than Realme 8 and Realme 8 5G. This is the only reason making the Pro version better than the other two models of the lineup because the rest of the design is similar and the materials used are the same.
Display
Realme 8 and 8 Pro have exactly the same display, which is actually better than the panel found on the Realme 8 5G. We are talking about a Super AMOLED panel showing vivid colors and absolute blacks, with a Full HD+ resolution, a standard refresh rate, and a peak brightness up to 1000 nits. The display also comes with an integrated fingerprint scanner for authentication. The Realme 8 5G has a 90 Hz refresh rate, but in this case, we are talking about an IPS panel. In each case, you get the Full HD+ resolution with 1080 x 2400 pixels, but the Realme 8 5G has a side-mounted fingerprint reader.
Hardware/Software
The most satisfying processor in terms of performance is the one provided by the Realme 8 Pro, which is powered by the Snapdragon 720G mobile platform. The chip is built at 8 nm and it comes with very high GPU performance. But it lacks 5G, so you might prefer the slightly lower performance offered by the Relame 8 5G because it provides 5G support. Further, the Dimensity 700 is built with a 7 nm production process. The phones all run Android 11 out of the box, customized by Realme UI 2.0.
Camera
The king of camera phones in the Realme 8 series is the Realme 8 Pro because of its main camera: a Samsung ISOCELL HM2 sensor with a 108 MP resolution and the in-sensor zoom technology. It captures a higher level of detail and provides better overall photo quality. Right after, we got the Realme 8 with its 64 MP rear camera. The Realme 8 5G is the most disappointing one: besides having an inferior 48 MP main camera, it lacks the ultrawide sensor too, unlike Realme 8 and 8 Pro.
Battery
Realme 8 Pro loses the battery comparison and Realme 8 is the longest-lasting battery phone of the trio. It has a 5000 mAh battery and a Super AMOLED display instead of the IPS panel found on the Realme 8 5G, which reduces energy consumption. Realme 8 Pro is the best when it comes to fast charging, thanks to a power of 50W.
Realme 8 vs Realme 8 Pro vs Realme 8 5G: Price
Realme 8 and Realme 8 5G are priced at €199/$240 in the global market (base variants), while you need €279/$337 to get the Realme 8 Pro. If we exclude the absence of 5G connectivity, the Realme 8 Pro is definitely the most interesting one, but it costs more. Between Realme 8 and 8 5G, the first is better due to its AMOLED display, better cameras, and faster charging: Realme 8 5G has the same price just because of the chipset and 5G connectivity.

OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z Reverb Red
According to prolific leaker Ishan Agarwal, the OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z Bass Edition will be soon available in a black color option in India. The tipster has partnered with 91Mobiles to bring this information. However, he does not say when the new variant will be officially announced.

The OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z Bass Edition are similar to the original except for sound stage, endurance, low latency, and weight. The former only has a 17-hour battery life, 100ms latency, and 26g weight compared to 20 hours, 110ms, and 28g on the latter.
The audio accessory features 9.2mm drivers and connects with devices via Bluetooth 5.0. The product is IP55-certified for splash resistance and has a Bluetooth range of 10m.
