The AGM H2 comes in a new colorway called Premium Black which ditches the red accents of the original for a more subtle all-black look. The new color variant is available in two configurations. Below are their price tags:
4GB RAM + 64GB = ¥1099 (~$169)
6GB RAM + 128GB = ¥1299 (~$199)
The AGM H2 has a 5.7-inch display with a resolution of 1440 x 720. Even with its aspect ratio, the phone still has thick bezels. There is a UNISOC Tiger T310 processor powering it. The chipset, which is the first quad-core LTE chip to use the DynamIQ Architecture, has one Cortex-A75 core and three Cortex-A55 cores in a single cluster.
On the back of the phone is a single 13MP camera while an 8MP sensor sits in front. There is a 4400mAh battery inside it with support for 10W charging. The AGM H2 also has a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and a 2.5W speaker. The phone is IP68 certified, has reinforced corners, and a push-to-talk (PTT) button.
In related news, AGM has also changed its logo and font. The new logo is still a combination of the alphabets A, G, and M but it drops the flat corners for rounded ones. The box the logo sits in also has rounded corners too. Surprisingly, AGM still uses the old logo on its Weibo page.
OPPO did not launch the whole F19 series at the same time. Firstly, the company launched the OPPO F19 Pro and F19 Pro+ 5G, while after a few weeks the vanilla OPPO F19 hitten the shelves as well. All of these phones belong to the mid-range segment and they boast great specifications offered at an amazing price. They are definitely among the best phones in terms of quality-price ratio in the Indian market. In order to let you know the differences between these handsets, we decided to publish an internal comparison between their specifications.
OPPO F19 vs OPPO F19 Pro vs OPPO F19 Pro Plus 5G
OPPO F19
OPPO F19 Pro
OPPO F19 Pro Plus 5G
DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT
160.3 x 73.8 x 8 mm, 175 grams
160.1 x 73.2 x 7.8 mm, 172 grams
160.1 x 73.4 x 7.8 mm, 173 grams
DISPLAY
6.43 inches, 1080 x 2400p (Full HD+), AMOLED
6.43 inches, 1080 x 2400p (Full HD+), Super AMOLED
6.43 inches, 1080 x 2400p (Full HD+), Super AMOLED
The OPPO F19, the F19 Pro, and the F19 Pro+ 5G come with different aesthetics. My favorite one is the OPPO F19 Pro+ 5G due to its high screen-to-body ratio, thin and lightweight body, and less invasive camera elements. All the camera elements of the OPPO F19 Pro+ 5G are included in the camera module (which makes it more elegant), while the OPPO F19 Pro has a dual LED flash outside the camera module. The vanilla OPPO F19 is a thicker phone and it comes with a lower screen-to-body ratio, that is why I would discard it.
Display
The displays of these three phones come with exactly the same specifications and they are pretty good panels if we consider the price segment. OPPO F19, F19 Pro, and F19 Pro+ 5G boast an AMOLED display with a 6.43-inch diagonal and a Full HD+ resolution with 1080 x 2400 pixels. Their typical brightness is pretty high with 430 nits, and they can reach up to 800 nits (peak brightness). The phones also come with an in-display fingerprint reader making the authentication more comfortable.
Hardware/Software
The best hardware is provided by the OPPO F19 Pro+ 5G. First of all, it is the only 5G phone of the trio and it supports the sub-6 GHz spectrum. Further, its Dimensity 800U is the most powerful one and it is paired with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. The OPPO F19 Pro lacks 5G, but its Helio P95 chipset is still an SoC with very good performance in the midrange segment. With the Snapdragon 662, SoC found on the OPPO F19, you can get lower-midrange performance. All the phones run Android 11 out of the box, customized by ColorOS 11.1.
Camera
OPPO F19 Pro and F19 Pro+ 5G have exactly the same rear camera setup. It is composed of a main 48 MP sensor with a bright f/1.7 focal aperture, an 8 MP ultrawide camera, and a pair of sensors with 2 MP resolutions for macros and depth calculation. Even the front camera is the same with its 16 MP resolution and f/2.4 focal aperture. We are talking about midrange cameras without optical stabilization, but they can provide good photo quality in good light conditions and a decent one even with low light. You get the same cameras with the vanilla OPPO F19 with the exception of the 8 MP ultrawide sensor which is absent on this model.
Battery
If you need the longest battery life, you should go for the OPPO F19. It has a way bigger 5000 mAh battery and, despite the production process of the SoC is worse than the Dimensity 800U found on the OPPO F19 Pro+ 5G (11 nm vs 7 nm), the battery life is way longer in every scenario. On the other hand, the OPPO F19 Pro+ offers faster charging speeds thanks to the SuperVOOC technology with a power of 50W. You get “only” 33W fast charging with the vanilla F19.
OPPO F19 vs OPPO F19 Pro vs OPPO F19 Pro Plus 5G: Price
OPPO F19 starts from about Rs. 18990, OPPO F19 Pro costs Rs. 21490 in its base variant, and OPPO F19 Pro+ starts from Rs. 23,899. The OPPO F19 Pro+ 5G is the natural winner thanks to 5G support, a better chipset, and faster charging speeds. But with the OPPO F19 Pro, you can get a higher value for money, while the OPPO F19 has the longest battery life.
German carmaker Mercedes has now ventured into the electric vehicle market with the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS. In a launch event held on Thursday, the exquisite Mercedes EV model was showcased with many exciting features to give established electric vehicle manufacturers like Tesla a run for the market. The design of the Mercedes-Benz EQS reflects the company’s track record of luxury and excellence combined with beauty and top-notch technology.
Mercedes-Benz hopes to redefine the EV segment for luxury sedans with the new EQS, which comes with features that can measure with some of Tesla’s premium EVs. The release of the Mercedes-Benz EQS is a bold indication that the German automaker intends to pursue the acquisition of a proportion of the market share in the EV market, as the EQS debuts in the United States next fall. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS will be part of the S-Class family.
To underscore the bold intentions of Mercedes-Benz, CEO Ola Kaellenius, in an extensive release document, says that the EQS was designed to exceed the expectations of its teeming customers, and this desire is reflected in all aspects of the EQS, brimming with excellence through and through.
The interior of the 2022 EQS is adorned with gadgets and designed like the cockpit of a spacecraft, with several screens offering operational and entertainment support. The appeal of the futuristic interior of the 2022 EQS is bound to draw enthusiasts for closer scrutiny and even comparison with the overtly simplistic interiors of Tesla’s latest luxury sedans, and this could be a stand-out feature of the 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS.
The 2022 Mercedes-Benz EQS electric vehicle could cost up to $100,000 according to industry watchers who expect the EQS to be more expensive than the latest Mercedes-Benz S-Class and also to be marginally more expensive than Tesla’s Model S large sedans.
The 2022 EQS is the first step in Mercedes-Benz’s “Ambition 2039” initiative to get EV versions of more than half the cars it sells by 2039. The car is the first EV running on a new vehicle platform for Mercedes-Benz and features more efficient batteries with significantly higher energy density and a higher range (about 770km) before needing a recharge. The EQS is also packed with several tech, safety, convenience, and entertainment features that places it at par with current EV sedan models.
Tesla remains the industry leader in EV sales in the US and globally, expanding to other markets, including China. Hence Mercedes-Benz has its work cut out for it as it aims to prise the leaderboard position out of Tesla. The level of acceptance of the 2022 EQS in the US market when it arrives in the fall of 2022 will determine how well it has moved.
An online shopper at UK supermarket chain Tesco, Nick James, got a pleasant surprise this week after he made an online purchase of groceries including apples, and got his supplies together with an Apple iPhone. The iPhone is courtesy of an online rewards scheme for customers of the supermarket.
The incidence of misplaced deliveries has gone up since the coronavirus pandemic warranted lockdowns across the world and made shoppers embrace the online shopping model to get their supplies. The rise in online shopping has also brought to the fore the mismatch between what was ordered and what was delivered. An online shopper recently got an iPhone-like work table delivered to him after ordering what he thought was an Apple iPhone.
However, the case of the present shopper, 50-year old Nick James, was not a case of mismatched order but a pleasant surprise from the supermarket franchise. Tesco had randomly selected shoppers for rewards that link with an item they had purchased from the supermarket’s online store. James was gifted with a free iPhone SE, together with his grocery order.
James was highly ecstatic in a tweet linked to him, saying that he was pleasantly surprised by the gift of an iPhone from Tesco when he made some online purchases at the supermarket’s online store. He said his son was also very excited about the gift.
A big thanks this week to @Tesco & @tescomobile. On Wednesday evening we went to pick up our click and collect order and had a little surprise in there – an Apple iPhone SE. Apparently we ordered apples and randomly got an apple iphone! Made my sons week! 😁 #tesco#substitutepic.twitter.com/Mo8rZoAUwD
The promotional campaign was targeted at online shoppers across the UK accessing goods from Tesco supermarkets. The marketing campaign is called the Super Substitute scheme and aims at replacing a particular item within a shopper’s cart with a surprise gift for randomly selected customers while the original item will be retained in the cart. It is claimed that Tesco has doled out up to 80 such gifts to its online shoppers across its outlets in the UK.
Xiaomi has given a detailed description of the cutting-edge heat dissipation technology deployed in the design of its latest premium and exquisite offering, the Mi Mix Fold smartphone.
In an article posted on Weibo, the versatile Chinese tech company explained how it finally overcame the heat dissipation challenge highly pronounced in foldable devices. A major problem with foldable smartphones is that the heat dissipation capacity is heavily dependent on the foldability status. It has been seen that the side of the device housing the SoC tends to accumulate more heat.
The Mi Mix Fold has begun sales in the Chinese market from April 16 and costs between 11,000 yuan and 13,000 yuan for the three variants available based on their memory capacity. Xiaomi says the Butterfly heat dissipation mechanism developed for the Mi Mix Fold enables efficient cooling from one side of the device to the other across the hinge mechanism.
The Mi Mix Fold smartphone comes with a raft of cooling mechanisms and heat-resistant materials that combine to make the Mi Mix Fold a masterpiece in the foldable segment. In fact, product testing revealed that the bend-resistant graphite sheet could retain its strength after several hundreds of thousands of 180-degrees bending.
The Mi Mix Fold is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 5G chipset, meaning that it has 5G support. The Snapdragon 888 is among the best high-end chips available. A 6.52″ and 8.01″ external and internal folding display are innovative components of the latest foldable from Xiaomi. The Mi Mix Fold has a 5,020mAh battery, capable of 67W fast charging. It features a camera system that includes a 108MP main camera with a liquid lens, a 13MP ultra-wide cam, and an 8MP telephoto camera.
If you want a 2021 Android flagship phone with a “small screen”, then the 6.2-inch Samsung Galaxy S21 and the 6.2-inch Meizu 18 are your best bet. There is also the newly announced Sony Xperia 5 III which has a 6.1-inch screen, but it is not yet available for purchase. However, a new leak has revealed that another Chinese manufacturer has a small-screen flagship on the way, one whose screen size is even smaller than the two mentioned above.
The source of the info is Digital Chat Station, the reliable Chinese leaker. In a post made on Weibo yesterday, he revealed that the Meizu 18 has a competitor on the way from another Chinese manufacturer. While he didn’t reveal the name of the brand, he did share the specifications of a prototype.
This unknown phone has a 5.9-inch AMOLED screen with a 2400 x 1080 resolution. We know it doesn’t measure up to the QHD+ resolution of the Meizu 18 but you get a 120Hz refresh rate. There is no mention of the design of the screen, so we can’t say if it has a punch hole or if it is flat or curved.
There is a Snapdragon 888 processor powering the device and it is paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. He didn’t say how many cameras the phone has but the post revealed that the main rear camera is a 64MP sensor. This phone also has a 4000mAh± battery capacity and supports 65W± fast charging. We expect it to run Android 11 out of the box.
The specs are what we will expect to see in a 2021 flagship but the price and availability are other important factors we need to consider. The Meizu 18 is available for purchase by interested buyers outside China via AliExpress and it starts at $819. You can also grab the Galaxy S21 for a starting price of $799.
The question now is if this new phone will be able to beat them in terms of price.
Redmi Note 10S launched along with other devices globally last month. Now, a report by 91Mobiles says that the Note 10S and the Redmi 10 series are coming to India. Along with this, it has also leaked the storage, color variants of the Redmi Note 10S.
Redmi Note 10S India- Storage, Colors
Xiaomi brought three storage and color variants of the Redmi Note 10S globally and it looks like the same will launch in India as per the report. You can look at them below:
Redmi Note 10S India (Leaked)
colors– White, Grey, Blue.
memory:
6GB + 64GB
6GB + 128GB
8GB + 128GB
The Redmi Note 10S recently appeared on Bluetooth SIG certification with model number M2101K7BI and here the ‘I’ usually means it’s an Indian variant. If the company doesn’t change the variant too much, it will fall somewhere between Redmi Note 10 and Redmi Note 10 Pro in India.
Accordingly, you can expect a 6.43-inch sAMOLED FHD+ 60Hz centered punch-hole display, MediaTek Helio G95 chipset, quad rear cameras with 64MP mains, 13MP selfie camera, 5,000mAh battery with 33W fast charging. Globally, the device launched at starting price of $229.
Redmi 10 series India
As per the report, the Redmi 10 number series will launch in India soon. Last year, Xiaomi brought the Redmi 9 Prime to India only after it debuted in China and other global markets. However, the Redmi 10 hasn’t yet been leaked in China so we will have to wait and see if it debuts in India first.
Redmi introduced a new EVOL design with the Redmi Note 10 series and the report says that the Redmi 10 number series could get it. Additionally, we can expect features like FHD+ display, MIUI based on Android 11 OS, and under ₹10,000 price tag for India.
As for the series itself, the report doesn’t reveal any names as such and going by last year’s records, we can only speculate things here.
Last year, Redmi brought close to 5 devices in the Redmi 9 series in India- Redmi 9, Redmi 9 Prime, Redmi 9A, Redmi 9 Power, and Redmi 9i. Out of these, either all or some of them might get successors this year.
It’s also worth noting that Xiaomi or Redmi for that matter hasn’t confirmed anything about this yet so let’s wait for official info on the same.
OPPO is launching the OPPO A54 in India on April 19. Ahead of this, 91Mobiles has partnered with Leaker Ishan Agarwal and has leaked the pricing of the device. It is said to begin as low as ₹13,490($180).
OPPO A54 India Storage variants, Price(Leaked)
As per the report, the OPPO A54will launch in India in three storage variants. Users will have the choice to get either 4/6GB RAM and 64/128GB storage options. You can look at the leaked pricing below:
OPPO A54
4GB + 64GB – ₹13,490
4GB + 128GB -₹14,490
6GB + 128GB -₹15,990
Last month, the device debuted in Indonesia for IDR 2.7 million(~$186) but this is for the 4/128GB variant. The Flipkart teaser page for India already shows the Starry Blue color variant but we can also expect the Crystal Black from Indonesia to launch in India.
OPPO A54 Specifications – India(Expected)
OPPO launched the OPPO A74 4G version as OPPO F19 in India a few days ago. However, it is bringing the OPPO A54 as it is to the country.
If OPPO doesn’t make any big changes, the OPPO A54 should feature 6.51-inch IPS LCD display. The Indonesian version has an HD+ display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels, a 60Hz refresh rate, and a 120Hz touch sampling rate.
OPPO A54 (Indonesia- Colors)
Under the hood, the OPPO A54 is likely to feature the same MediaTek Helio P35 chipset paired with 4/6GB RAM, 64/128GB storage. It will probably get the MicroSD card for storage expansion up to 256GB.
For cameras, the device likely has a triple-camera setup on the back with a 13MP main and a pair of 2MP sensors. Upfront, the device is expected to have a 16MP selfie shooter. Other features include a 5,000mAh battery with 18W charging, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, 3.5mm jack, and Android 11 OS.
The upcoming Infinix Note 10 Pro is in the news since February. The smartphone was first certified by FCC with model number X695. The certification revealed some of the features of the device. It was later spotted on Geekbench as well. Late last month, images of the handset’s retail box leaked revealing more specs. Now, renders of this phone expose its design entirely.

An exclusive report by XDA Developers brings us the renders of the forthcoming Infinix Note 10 Pro. The publication has shared three images. Two of these pictures showcase the smartphone’s front. Whereas, the third image reveals the device’s complete design.
According to these renders, the phone will flaunt a centered punch-hole display and a couple of sensors (possibly ambient light sensor, proximity sensor) along with a notification LED on the front. Further, the handset’s rear panel will house a rectangular camera array with five circles.
However, it may only sport a quad-camera setup, as per the retail box leak. One of the additional holes may nest an ambient light sensor like on the Xiaomi Mi 10T series or ‘AI’ branding.

Lastly, talking about the placement of buttons and ports, the power (embedded fingerprint sensor)/volume keys and SIM card slot will be located on the right and the left sides respectively. Whereas, a 3.5mm headphone jack, USB Type-C port, microphone hole, and a speaker grille will be present at the bottom. The top side of the phone will be empty.
As per previous reports, the Ininfix Note 10 Pro will feature a 6.9-inch 90Hz display, MediaTek Helio G95 SoC, 8GB RAM, 256GB storage, 64MP primary camera, 16MP selfie camera, XOS 7.6 based on Android 11, 5,000mAh battery, and 33W fast charging.
There’s no word on this smartphone’s launch date but it could be accompanied by Infinix X693, which is expected to be the regular Infinix Note 10 without the Pro moniker.
Last month, OnePlus Nord N100 received the OxygenOS 10.5.6/10.5.8 update with the February 2021 security patch. Now, the affordable OnePlus smartphone is getting a new update in North America and EU regions.
The OnePlus Nord N100 is getting an OTA(Over The Air) OxygenOS 10.5.7 and 10.5.9 update in regions where it is sold, i.e, the NA and Europe respectively. You can take a look at the firmware versions below:
NA – OxygenOS 10.5.7 – 10.5.7.BE81AA
EU – OxygenOS 10.5.9 – 10.5.9.BE83BA
The changelog doesn’t detail the improvements/changes that are coming to the device. Rather, it says that the device will get the March 2021 security patch.
In the last update, OnePlus said that it had improved the standby power consumption in certain scenarios in addition to fixing the Known issues. However, the latest update shows that the company has once again fixed known issues in addition to improving the system stability.

Samsung debuted the Galaxy A32 5G in mid-January. The device first went official in Germany. One and a half months later, the 4G variant of the handset made its debut in India in early March. Now, another version of the phone gets certified by Bluetooth SIG.
Samsung Galaxy A32 5G
A new variant of the Samsung Galaxy A32 with model number SM-A326K has been certified by Bluetooth SIG (via Simranpal Singh). As per the listing, this device will go official as Galaxy Jump.
Hence, this smartphone will be the second handset after the Galaxy Quantum2 with a different branding than the usual Galaxy names in 2021. Just like Quantum2, the Jump could be exclusive to a carrier in a certain region.
Going by the model number, the Galaxy Jump could be a rebranded Galaxy A32 5G and not the 4G variant. Hence, we can expect features like a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD panel, MediaTek Dimensity 720 SoC, 48MP (wide) + 8MP (ultra-wide) + 5MP (macro) + 2MP (depth) quad-camera setup, 13MP selfie camera, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, One UI 3.0 (Android 11), 5,000mAh battery, and 15W fast charging.
Unfortunately, the availability and launch date of this phone is a mystery as of now. But we expect to learn more about it before its official announcement in the coming days.
A new Vivo smartphone with model number V2061 has appeared at the Google Play Console.

The V2061’s Play Console appearance revealed that it supports a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and a 440ppi pixel density. The listing further revealed that it is equipped with the Snapdragon 720G chipset, 8 GB of RAM, and Android 11 OS. The other specs of the smartphone are not known yet.
An image of the alleged V21 SE is also available in the listing. it shows that the phone features a waterdrop notch display along with a slightly thick chin. The handset has a volume rocker on the left and a power key. It features another button on its left edge.
Alleged Vivo V21 SE at Google Play Console
Vivo Malaysia recently confirmed that it will be announcing the Vivo V21 and Vivo V21e smartphones on April 27 in Malaysia.

It will also arrive with dual SIM 5G connectivity.
It is speculated that the Vivo V21 lineup for India will include three handsets such as Vivo V21 4G / 5G, Vivo V21 Pro, and Vivo V21 SE. Vivo India is yet to confirm a launch date for the V21 series. A report by Money Control revealed that the V21 will be announced on April 27 in India with a price of around Rs 25,000. The other V21 series is expected to land in the country a bit later.
The latest system update for the OnePlus 7/7 Pro and the OnePlus 7T/7T Pro comes with an identical changelog as the older build with some minute changes.
First and foremost, the new OxygenOS 11.0.0.2 update features March 2021 security patches instead of February 2021. Secondly, it also brings three new camera features that were not present in the previous build.

As always, the new OTA system update for the OnePlus 7 and the OnePlus 7T series is being seeded out in batches. Therefore, it may take time to reach every unit out in the market.
Earlier this month, OPPO announced the OPPO Reno5 Z (CPH2211 model number) smartphone in Singapore. The same phone has made its way to European markets with the OPPO A94 5G moniker. Here is all the information on the specifications, features, and pricing of the A94 5G (CPH2211 model number).
OPPO A94 5G specifications and features
The OPPO A94 5G has a 6.43-inch AMOLED screen with a punch-hole design. It produces an FHD+ resolution, a 20:9 aspect ratio, a 60Hz refresh rate, a 135Hz to 180Hz touch sampling rate, and an in-display fingerprint sensor. The handset promises a screen space of 90.8 percent.
OPPO A94 5G
The Dimensity 800U chipset along with 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM drives the OPPO A94 5G. It has a built-in storage of 128 GB and offers a microSD card slot for more storage. The phone boots to Android 11 OS, which is overlaid with ColorOS 11.1 skin.
For snapping selfies, the A94 5G has a front camera of 16-megapixel. The rear camera setup of the device has a 48-megapixel main camera with f/1.7 aperture, an 8-mgeapixel ultrawide shooter with a 119-degree FOV, a 2-megapixel macro camera, and a 2-megapixel monochrome camera.
The device is backed by a 4,310mAh battery that comes with support for 30W rapid charging. It is packed with usual connectivity features like dual SIM support, 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, NFC, USB-C, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
OPPO A94 5G
The A94 5G handset resembles OPPO F19 Pro+ 5G (CPH2213 model number), which debuted in India last month. In comparison to the A94 5G / Reno5 Z, the F19 Pro+ 5G lacks supports for NFC connectivity and is equipped with faster 50W fast charging.
OPPO A94 5G pricing and availability
The OPPO A94 5G is priced at 359 euros (~$430) and it comes in colors like Fluid Black and Cosmo Blue. The handset will be available for purchase in Europe from May 3.
Samsung is reportedly working on the Galaxy A22 5G (SM-A226B model number) smartphone. It is expected to arrive as the most affordable 5G phone from the brand. Some markets like India could be treated with the 4G version of the Galaxy A22. It appears that the launch of the Galaxy A22 4G could be drawing near in India as it has been approved by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS).
My Smart Price has spotted a BIS listing of the phone of Samsung phone that has a model number of SM-A225F. The same phone handset has also appeared in the HTML5Test benchmarks with Android 11 OS. Unfortunately, these listings have no information on the key specs of the Galaxy A22 4G.
Probably, the Galaxy A22 4G will sport the same design as the Galaxy A22 5G. The major difference between the two phones could be the presence of a 5G-ready chipset under the hood of the A22 5G.
1 of 2
Samsung-Galaxy-A22-4G-SM-A225F
The moniker of the A22 5G suggests that it will be positioned lower the Dimensity 800U powered Galaxy A32 5G. Hence, it may feature Dimensity 720 or Dimensity 700 or Snapdragon 480 SoC. It is expected to feature a front camera of 13-megapixel and a quad-camera setup, which will include a 48-megapixel primary camera, an 8-megapixel secondary snapper, and a pair of 2-megapixel cameras.
While the Galaxy A22 5G is expected to arrive in two RAM and storage variants, the exact details are not known yet. The phone may arrive in multiple colors such as gray, white, light green, and purple. It is likely to be priced under 229 euros (~Rs 20,450).
Everyone must have gone through a long power outage at least once in a lifetime. Well, the case of a power outage is not frequent in the developed countries. Still, during some extreme weather conditions, the citizens have to reel under the dark. The issue becomes prominent when people don’t have a backup power source apart from the grid. As a solution, Bluetti has announced new powerful UPS systems – EP500 and EP500 Pro to light your homes, offices even you need the electricity the most. Both the power stations are successfully listed on Kickstarter.com and are towards its journey of $3M milestone.
Bluetti EP500 and EP500 Pro come with several new advancements and smart features in comparison with the AC200 UPS which was launched last year. The new UPS system is the most powerful home power station which has a load capacity of up to 5.1kWh. Bluetti EP500 supports dual charging via the means of direct AC supply and renewable solar energy. It can also be used to charge smart devices as it carries all the compatible interfaces. Moreover, it even supports wireless charging for compatible devices.
The company has revealed full technical specifications of the Bluetti EP500 and EP500 Pro.
Technical Specifications of Bluetti EP500 and EP500 Pro
Apart from being the most powerful mobile power station, the Bluetti EP500 is even smarter as it houses an onboard chip. A single unit can provide up to 3000 watts of supply at 120V using the NEMA L14-20 20A receptacle technology.
The EP500 Pro features two USB Type-C ports that comply with the PD3.0 protocol. It is a hub to power whole house needs including several appliances, laptops, phones, and other adapters.
Apart from the device itself, special accessories are also part of the product. These accessories transform the Bluetti EP500 UPS systems into more powerful stations.
Bluetti EP500/Pro Accessories
The Bluetti manufactured three different accessories to aid the operations.
Bluetti Home Integration Kit Unlike the previous year, the company has introduced a fully-working Home Integration Kit that allows the device to be used easily by simply plugging into their home circuits. The kit includes a sub panel, which gets integrated with the main panel. However, the user can shift vital loads onto the sub-panel so that whenever there’s a power outage, those appliances remain connected to the power supply. Bluetti UPS will immediately take over the supply in less than 20ms. The Kit will enable flawless integration with your home circuit and will keep running your light, heater, and hot water through taps.
Fusion Box Pro (FOr EP500 Pro) As with the EP500, Bluetti has created a more advanced Fusion Box Pro for the EP500 Pro UPS. Through the box, the users can connect two EP500 PRO UPS systems to get up to a 6000W power supply. Such a massive power output is made possible with two 30A outlets which are connected together. The Fusion Box Pro is equipped with an array of heavy-duty 30Amp/20Amp outlets including a 120V/240V 30A(Up to 6000W continuous power) receptacle like we’ve seen before on the Fusion Box, and two NEMA TT-30.
PV Voltage Step-down Modular Fusion EP500 facilitates renewable energy as it offers the ability to recharge via solar energy. The PV Voltage step-down Modular helps in the same thing to step down voltage so that Bluetti’s volage can step down on your system voltage and adjust total input voltage.
All the new UPS systems along with their accessories are on sale at Kicstarter.com. The interested users can head over to Kickstarter.com to pledge it for the minimum retail price.
As per the company, it is a golden chance for the interested buyers to grab it at the lowest possible cost as the actual retail price will be high. It is the best product if you’re undergoing frequent power outages.
Bluetti has promised to start shipping both the UPS systems from August. The customers will get a benefit of a 2-year warranty and lifetime tech support if they become crowdfund backers. Moreover, a single year extended warranty costs $399 or $699 for two years. You can know more about the product by heading to the official website.
Last month, Evan Blass shared a render of the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite. Today he has shared yet another render of the upcoming tablet.
Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite render(Gray) by Evan Blass
The latest render shared by Evan Blass on Voice appears in Silver Color. Apart from the obvious paint job, the design of the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite looks the same as the render shared before. At the back, we have a single camera (without LED flash) and a Samsung branding at the bottom.
The back panel is said to have a slim metal design. Upfront, we see the thick bezels surrounding the display more clearly now. What else is more visible is that, at the bottom, we can see a Type-C port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
Also, there are two cutouts at the center below the earpiece on top. One of them is the front camera while the other could be the proximity/ambient light sensor. Speaking of the front, the display is said to be 8.4-inches(or 8.7-inches) in size.

Under the hood, the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite is said to feature a MediaTek Helio P22T chipset paired with an IMG PowerVR GE8320 GPU.
The device has already appeared on FCC, Bluetooth SIG, and China’s TENAA certifications. Other expected specs include 3GB RAM, Bluetooth 5.0 for connectivity, 5,100mAh battery, and run Android 11 OS. It is expected to launch in June 2021 in global markets including Europe.
Samsung was one of the first companies to launch a foldable smartphone and is also actively trying to bring more and more such devices to the market. For this, the company has been experimenting with different foldable designs.
Now, a report coming from LetsGoDigital, citing a new patent from Samsung, claims that the South Korean giant is developing a Galaxy Z Flip-type smartphone that can be folded in two directions — inwards and outwards, eliminating the need for a larger cover display.
The patent, applied in October last year, describes a clamshell phone with an elongated display, similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip. Because of the unique ability of the smartphone to fold in both directions, the hinge also needs to be redesigned.
When folded, the flexible screen remains protected against external influences. Folding the device the other way gives access to a large screen on both the front and rear. Additionally, the phone can be used in a fully open position, after which the entire flexible screen can be used.
The phone features a dual punch-hole camera on the front side. As the flash cannot be used on the device due to safety concerns, the company has opted to illuminate the display as a workaround for flash.
Interestingly, the phone will come with an in-display fingerprint sensor, which if turns out to be true, will be the first time for a foldable smartphone. Currently, there is no foldable device that comes with an under-display fingerprint scanner.
Do note that this is a patent from Samsung and there’s a possibility that the company isn’t planning to launch such a device anytime soon. However, the company is working on several foldable smartphones, including the Z Flip (5G), Z Flip 3, and Z Fold 3 that will get launched later this year.
Google completed the acquisition of Fitbit in January. In fact, the company’s smartwatches and trackers are now available on the Google Shelves. Now, a new report by WinFuture says that Fitbit will launch a new fitness tracker named Fitbit Luxe.

As per the report, the Fitbit Luxewill come in three color variants- Black, Soft Gold(with White strap), and Platinum / Orchid(Pinkish strap) color options. The highlight here is that the casing is said to be metal that is stainless steel.
If you look at the strap buckle, it is the classic buckle clasp that we see generally on smartwatches. Fit is known for offering a lot of interchangeable strap options and that seems to be the case with Fitbit Luxe as well.
As for the specs, the report says that Fitbit Luxe is said to feature an OLED display however, the exact dimensions of the display aren’t out yet. That said, we can say from the looks that the display has rounded corners than the sharp edges on the Charge 4.
