At the Axon 30 series launch today, ZTE also announced a new variant of its smartwatch, the ZTE Watch GT. It also announced some merchandise to celebrate the Axon 30 series.
The new variant of the ZTE Watch GT has a leather strap with a silver frame, unlike the standard version that has silicone straps. ZTE is charging ¥699 (~$107) for this version. The variants with the silicone strap sell for ¥599 (~$92). There is no info about availability. We checked the official website and the official store on JD.com but did not find this variant.
To celebrate the launch of the Axon 30 series, ZTE also announced some merchandise. The items which include a throw pillow, backpack, t-shirt, and hoodie all have the Chinese word for “Thirty” written in a colorful font. Unfortunately, the manufacturer didn’t reveal the price tag and details about the availability of these items.
Transsion brand TECNO is expected to launch TECNO CAMON 17 (CG6j) sometime in the near future. Similarly, we have spotted two more upcoming TECNO phones on FCC. Let us take a look at them one by one.
TECNO KF6 / TECNO KF6K
The TECNO K56 and KF6K are expected to be the same phone going by their label sketch on FCC. This smartphone will house a vertically-aligned camera setup on the back along with a capacitive fingerprint sensor.

The power and volume keys on this headset will be located on the right side. Whereas, its left side will include the SIM card slot.
According to the certification, the TECNO KF6 / K56K will be a budget smartphone with 4G connectivity. It will ship with a TECNO U100TSA power adapter. That means the device will only support 10W charging.
Unfortunately, we are not aware of this handset’s marketing name as well as other specs.
TECNO AC8
The TECNO AC8 will be a PHANTOM series smartphone as per the label sketch on FCC. The phone’s back will have the PHANTOM branding and a vertically-aligned triple camera setup at the center.

Just like the device above, this one will also sport the power and volume keys on the right side. Also, it will be a 4G handset backed by a 4,600mAh (typical) battery with support for 33W fast charging. The TECNO U330TSA 33W fast charger will be included in the box.
The last TECNO PHANTOM series smartphone was TECNO PHANTOM 9. It was launched in July 2019. Hence, this phone could go official as TECNO PHANTOM 10.
However, as per rumors, the TECNO AC8 may launch as TECNO PHANTOM X.
The entry-level segment offers a lot of choices in 2021. If you are an average user and you do not need very high performance, you can get a pretty decent user experience even with low-end handsets. Among the most performing devices in the lowest price range there are Realme C25 and Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime. Two all-rounders with very good spec sheets offered at very affordable prices. But which one is the best and suits your needs the most? If you have this question, you should find the answer after reading this specs comparison between two of the best entry-level phones in the smartphone market.
The Realme C25 and the Redmi 9 Prime do not come with a premium design, just like all the other entry-level phones. They have a body made of polycarbonate, but the Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime has a water-repellent coating which is very nice if you want to use the phone in the rain. Both the phones come with a waterdrop notch instead of those modern punch-hole displays, and both offer a rear-mounted fingerprint reader for authentication. The Redmi 9 Prime is slightly more comfortable for one-handed use and to keep in a pocket: it is thinner and lighter thanks to its smaller battery.
Display
The Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime has a superior display for one single reason: the Full HD+ resolution. With a resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels, it offers a higher level of definition, the same as most of the midrange phones out there. The Realme C25, instead, comes with a below-average HD+ resolution (720p). Both are IPS panels with similar levels of brightness: the Realme C25 has slightly higher brightness, but the resolution is definitely a more important thing, so the Redmi 9 Prime wins the display comparison.
Specs & Software
If you need the most advanced hardware setup, you should choose the Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime. It has a more powerful Helio G80, while the Realme C25 is powered by the Helio G70 chipset. However, the difference in performance is just marginal: the Helio G70 is not a disappointing chipset compared to the G80. The memory configurations are the same: 4 GB of RAM and 64 or 128 GB of native storage depending on the chosen variant. The Redmi 9 Prime runs Android 10 out of the box, while the Realme C25 comes with Android 11. So, you will most likely get longer software support and a more advanced software department with the Realme C25.
Camera
The camera setup of the Realme C25 changes depending on the market. In the international market, the handset comes with a triple camera including a 48 MP main sensor which is definitely better than the 13 MP quad camera found on the Redmi 9 Prime. But the Indian version of the phone has an inferior 13 MP triple camera. If we consider the Indian version, then Redmi 9 Prime is a better camera phone because it adds an 8 MP ultrawide sensor. But if we talk about the international version, Realme C25 is better thanks to its great 48 MP main camera.
The Realme C25 has a bigger battery: with a capacity of 6000 mAh, it is able to provide stunning battery life and it even supports wireless charging. The Redmi 9 Prime lacks wireless charging support and comes with a battery capacity of 5020 mAh. Further, the higher resolution of the display makes the energy consumption higher. The Realme C25 is one of the best battery phones of the year, but Redmi 9 Prime is still great when it comes to battery life.
Price
The starting price of the Realme C25 is about €140/$168, while the Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime starts from €106/$127 in the Indian market. If we exclude the display resolution, overall, the Realme C25 is a more convincing handset. But if you care about the resolution, you’d better go for the Redmi 9 Prime which also offers a slightly better chipset, while packing a smaller but still good battery.
Chinese phone maker Xiaomi unveiled the Mi 11 Ultra smartphone and one of the features of the flagship is its IP68 water-resistant build. That feature has now been put to test as the phone was unboxed underwater by a diver and this was shared by Xiaomi on Weibo.
The underwater unboxing of the device is a clear reflection of the success accomplished by the tech giant in producing IP68-rated phones capable of operating even in extreme conditions like underwater. Both the Mi 11 Ultra and the Mi 11 Pro are the first set of smartphones with an IP68 waterproof rating for depths up to 1.5 meters, and they are both capable of remaining underwater for up to 30 minutes.
The water-resistant and dust-resistant capabilities of the Mi 11 Ultra are due to its Gorilla Glass front, ceramic back, and aluminum frame that combines to shut out both water and dust from affecting the device.
The Mi 11 Ultra
The Mi 11 Ultra was released in March 2021 and is already on sale for about $1,440. It runs on Android 11, with an Octa-core CPU and memory ratings of 8GB/12GB RAM and 256GB/512GB of internal memory.
The smartphone is also adorned with a powerful camera module, using a Samsung 1/1.12″ 50MP GN2 sensor for the main camera. In addition, a 48MP 5x periscope camera and a 48MP 12mm ultra-wide camera are also present. The exciting features of the Mi 11 Ultra will provide an instant appeal to its growing clientele, and Xiaomi is expected to reap from a projected surge in demand for waterproof-rated smartphones.
The phone is powered by the premium Snapdragon 888 5G chipset. It packs a 6.81-inch AMOLED display with 1440p resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The 5,000mAh capacity battery also provides greater width in operational times before needing a recharge. Fast charging is also possible, with Xiaomi claiming that it is possible to have a full charge within 36 minutes.

Yes, we are equally surprised, but a leaker has namedropped the Honor 50 when we are yet to even see the Honor 40. A tweet by the leaker that goes by @RODENT950 has said that the Honor 50 will launch before the Huawei P50. We are not sure if Honor plans to launch the Honor 50 in place of the Honor 40 or if it plans to launch both devices one after the other.
The Huawei P50 has had to be delayed: the phone which was reported to launch this month is now said to be scheduled for a possible release in June, no thanks to supply chain issues that the company is facing. There is no official confirmation that the launch will happen in June, so we won’t rule out the possibility of it arriving earlier or even later.
However, if the tweet above is true, we can infer that Honor will launch its own flagship phone, the Honor 50, before the Huawei P50’s announcement in June or whenever it might be.
This new info is still unconfirmed, so we will advise you to take it with a pinch of salt until more details surface.
Teclast has revealed that its first 5G tablet will be unveiled soon. The brand disclosed recently (via IThome) that the tablet will be called T40 5G and is already in the prototype stage with the release expected as soon as it passes the functional tests.
Perhaps, the most interesting part of the announcement is the disclosure that the T40 5G will be powered by the UNISOC Tiger T7520 chip. The Tiger T7520 processor is a 5G chipset and the first to be built using a 6nm EUV process. The 6nm process has an increased transistor density of 18% compared to the 7nm process. It also brings a reduction in the power consumption by 8% over its predecessor. The T7520 chipset was first announced in February last year with the release set for early 2021. Thus, the Teclast T40 may be the first device to utilize the chipset.
Teclast didn’t release further details of the T40 5G but the brand launched a 4G version of the T40 towards the end of last month. The Teclast T40 4G is powered by a UNISOC Tiger T618 processor. The tablet features a 10.4-inch fullscreen display with a 2K resolution. The tablet also comes with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of flash memory. Keeping the lights on is a massive 8000mAh battery. The T40 4G equally features four stereo speakers and a gyroscope. We expected the 5G version to retain most of these configurations including the display size. The major difference will be the 5G chipset and perhaps more RAM and storage options.
Teclast is yet to release the launch itinerary for the T40 5G. We’ll keep you updated when more details emerge.

Xiaomi has launched a new smart home product that is presently on sale via the Youpin platform. The Xiaomi Smoke Detector, as it is called, is a product jointly created by Xiaomi and Honeywell and the logos of the two brands are printed at the front of the device.
The smoke detector/alarm is certified by China’s 3C as a fire protection product meaning that it has a high level of reliability. It can be paired with the MIJIA app to form part of the smart home ecosystem. In this regard, the product uses Bluetooth 5.0 connection mode, which means it needs to be used with a Bluetooth gateway such as Xiaomi smart speakers. As a matter of fact, Xiaomi had earlier launched a smoke detector some years back but that model uses a WiFi gateway which is the major difference with this model.
Just like the previous model, the Xiaomi Smoke Detector uses an optical labyrinth design, which can detect smoke particles produced by a fire, and immediately trigger an alarm at the first time.
When a dangerous situation is detected, a strong alarm will be issued through the mobile device. If a false alarm occurs, the user can use the MIJIA app on the mobile phone to mute the sound remotely.
The smoke detector has its own loudspeaker, which can emit an alarm sound of 80dB loudness within 3 meters, allowing family members to respond and deal with it in time. The outer shell of the product is made of anti-UV material, which is not easy to turn yellow after long-term use. The alarm also has an anti-insect net to ensure sensitive detection parts are not obscured by insects.
In addition, it uses CR17450 specification disposable lithium-manganese battery with a capacity of 2400mAh and a battery life of up to 5 years. The gadget can either be screwed to the wall or stamped on the wall surface as desired. The installation plate, screws, battery, and other accessories are included in the package, and users do not need to buy them separately.
Xiaomi Smoke Detector is priced at 149 yuan (~$22) and is presently available in China via Xiaomi Youpin. We expect it to be released overseas in due course.
Samsung is likely to launch Galaxy Tab A7 Lite and S7 Lite 5G in a couple of months. Among these, the render of the Galaxy Tab S7 Lite 5G has now appeared online.
Shared by Evan Blass on Voice, the post shows the Galaxy Tab S7 Lite 5G. If you recall, an earlier report said that the device would launch in four colors- Black, Silver, Pink, and Green. And the render shared by Evan shows the device in a Mystic Black color variant.
Talking about the image, the device looks a lot like its sibling Galaxy Tab S7. We have a magnetic attachment on the Aluminum back panel for holding the S-Pen. And speaking of which, the renders show that the device will most likely have the S-Pen support.

That said, Considering Samsung made users buy the S-Pen for the Galaxy Tab S7 separately, we can expect the same for the ‘Lite’ variant. Moving on, the device has USB-C and speakers at the bottom, while the top has another speaker to probably complete the stereo setup.
Also, there are dual-cameras on the back just like the Galaxy Tab S7 but we will have to wait for the official word to know if it will have the same 13MP and 8MP sensors. Upfront, we have a display that is said to be a 12.4-inch LCD panel with noticeable bezels around on all sides.
The Galaxy Tab S7 Lite will likely launch in certain markets in two models- 4G LTE (SM-T735) and Wi-Fi only (SM-T730). However, Europe is said to get a 5G variant instead of 4G. Geekbench listings suggest that the 5G variant will have Snapdragon 750G chipset.
Other expected features include Galaxy Continuity(using a tablet as a secondary screen for their Galaxy smartphone), at least 4GB of RAM, and run Android 11 OS. We can expect the device to launch in June / July 2021.
OnePlus Nord N10 5G features a 6.49 inches IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen and Android 10 + OxygenOS 10.5. It is powered by a Qualcomm SM6350 Snapdragon 690 5G processor and comes with 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage, and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.
The smartphone sports a quad-camera set up with a 64 MP (wide) main camera and 8 MP (ultrawide) + 5MP (depth) + 2 MP (macro) cameras. The selfie cam is a 16MP front-facing camera. Fueled with a 4300mAh battery this phone supports 30W fast charging. For more information check out this article on Gizmochina.
As a limited period offer, AliExpress is giving out OnePlus Nord N10 5G for $227 after discounts. This offer is applicable only on the US and UK plug versions ordered from the China warehouse. With free shipping and additional discount coupons, this deal is simply too good to ignore. So grab your OnePlus Nord N10 5G asap.

If you are wondering if the spanking new Axon 30 Ultra will be available outside China, then there is good news. ZTE has announced that the new flagship will be available for its international fans.
According to a Weibo post by ZTE Mobile, the company operates in more than 100 countries and it is aware that it has lots of fans outside China. In that light, it will be bringing the Axon 30 Ultra to them via its international website, ztedevices.com.
This is the same platform it announced the Axon 20 5G last year. However, we hope ZTE doesn’t repeat the “invite-first” sale method but makes it available for open sale once it is listed. ZTE ships the Axon 20 5G to more than 40 countries according to the information on the site, so we expect the Axon 30 Ultra will be available to these markets too. It has also been reported by The Verge that it will be sold in the US and Canada.
When will it be available? ZTE didn’t say neither did it reveal the price tag. Seeing as the Axon 20 5G wasn’t available until three months after its launch in China, there is a possibility that the Axon 30 Ultra will not be available so soon.
The Axon 30 Ultra has a Snapdragon 888 processor; four rear cameras, three of which are 64MP sensors; while it has up to 16GB of RAM, it appears only the 8GB RAM and 12GB RAM variants will be available outside China. The phone has a curved AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate, a 4600mAh battery, and support for 66W fast wired charging.
Xiaomi just held a two-day launch event to announce a bunch of products for both China and global markets. Within a month, the company has scheduled another event for tomorrow (April 16) to unveil Mi TV EA 2022 lineup.
Since the Xiaomi Mi TV EA 2022 series launch is set for tomorrow, the company has only revealed a few set of features. First and foremost, the new smart television from the firm will be available in seven sizes – 32-inch, 40-inch, 43-inch, 50-inch, 55-inch, 65-inch, and 75-inch.
Further, all these variants will feature a unibody metal design with a full-screen display. The teaser renders barely show any bezel. Lastly, the 50-inch and above versions have been confirmed to come with better color standards, various display adjustment features, and far-field microphones for voice control.
Apart from the official teasers, these televisions have also been certified by 3C. According to the certifications, each model is being manufactured by multiple companies.
Mi TV EA 2022 32-inch (L32M7-EA)
TCL OVERSEAS ELECTRONICS (HUIZHOU) CO., LTD
Hefei Huikejinyang Technology Co., Ltd
Mi TV EA 2022 40-inch (L40M7-EA)
Nanjing Skyworth Flat Display Technology Co.ltd、
Mi TV EA 2022 43-inch (L43M7-EA)
Sichuan Changhong Electric Co.,Ltd.
Hefei BOE Vision-electronic Technology Co., Ltd
Mi TV EA 2022 50-inch (L50M7-EA)
HUIZHOU KTC TECHNOLOGY CO.,LTD.
Mi TV EA 2022 55-inch (L55M7-EA)
Suzhou RAKEN Technology Co.,Ltd.
Mi TV EA 2022 65-inch (L65M7-EA)
HUIZHOU KTC TECHNOLOGY CO.,LTD.
Interestingly, there’s no 3C certification for the 75-inch variant. But however, there is another 75-inch Mi TV with model number L75M7-Z1.
Anyway, we expect to learn everything about these Xiaomi televisions tomorrow when they will be officially presented.
Redmi gaming phone is confirmed to launch by the end of this month, i.e, April 2021. Ahead of the launch, it has appeared on the 3C certification website.
A Redmi smartphone with model number M2104K10AC appears on 3C certification database. If you recall, this device is said to launch as the Redmi’s first gaming phone. Anyway, the certification shows that the device is rated for a maximum of 67W charging.
Considering it’s a gaming phone, it will most likely be a wired charging. That said, 67W charging isn’t new to Xiaomi. Recently, Mi 11 Ultra debuted with 67W wired+ wireless. Do note that this is not the fastest charging protocol that Xiaomi has unveiled.
The company brought Mi 10 Ultra last year and it had up to 120W charging support. That being said, this 67W charging support, goes in line with the earlier report as well. So, it’s just a matter of time till the company confirms itself.
Also, if you note the charger, it has a model number MDY-12-EF which is the same one that got certified under Xiaomi a while ago. It’s great to see Redmi get the latest tech as Xiaomi’s top-of-the-line flagship and the adaption is faster than before.
Redmi has already confirmed that its first gaming phone will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset. The device is said to feature a special “Call Of Duty” Theme, optimized for “PeaceKeeper Elite” with better haptic vibrations, etc.
While the other specs aren’t confirmed, it is likely to come with a 5,000mAh battery, 64MP Sony IMX686 camera, run MIUI 12.5 out of the box. Also, there are reports that this device could launch under ‘POCO’ branding in India. Let’s wait for more info in the coming days.

Ni Fei, the president of ZTE Mobile Devices, revealed that the Axon 30 is coming and it will have an under-display camera. The manufacturer explained that the device was delayed due to the current global chip shortage among other issues. Nevertheless, he says the phone will arrive soon.
The phone is expected to come with a Snapdragon 888 chipset like its other siblings that were announced today, though we won’t be surprised if it comes with a different chipset entirely. It should also run Android 11 with ZTE’s new MyOS interface on top.
Chinese tech powerhouse Huawei has endured a very vicious campaign of sanctions and restrictions within the last two years, but it seems the company is still riding strong amidst the storm. Huawei has continued on a positive development trajectory, with several patents emanating from the company in recent times.
The current Huawei rotating Chairman Xu Zhijun has disclosed that the company projects 2030 as the launch date for its next-generation 6G technology deployment. The 6G network will be 50 times faster than 5G, further enhancing the current 5G technology which is still at its developmental stage in various parts of the world. According to the Huawei chairman, a 6G white paper that will provide the necessary details on the technology for industry regulators and players will be unveiled soon.
Xu’s announcement is bound to keep Huawei’s competitors on their feet, as it indicates progress the company had made even in the height of stiff restrictions by the United States Government and some of its allies. Huawei continues to blaze the trail among its competitors in several aspects of the technology spectrum, including communication, where it remains the undisputed leader in 5G technology.
As Huawei continues to extend technology’s frontiers through its numerous innovations, possibilities continue to unfurl for it to deploy 6G technology. The speed of the 6G network massively outclasses that of 5G up to 50 times. It is far superior to 5G in terms of the key performance indicators and metrics like peak rate, delay, traffic density, connection density, mobility, and spectrum efficiency.
The expected benefits of 6G communications networks are pretty mouthwatering. With ultra-high network speeds never before seen, the world will become more connected, and several tasks still challenging to accomplish using 5G will become routine. The impact on the health, automobile, economic and technological space will be significant if indeed Huawei can pull this achievement in 2030.
The new report would help to boost fans’ confidence in the brand amidst the protracted sanctions.

Samsung leads the foldable smartphone category with its Galaxy Z series. Currently, the company sells two types of foldable phones and both of them have a single hinge. However, there have been reports in the past regarding a tri-fold Galaxy tablet. According to our source, such a device is indeed in development and may launch as soon as next year.

GizmoChina has partnered with tipster Yogesh to bring you fresh information about the upcoming Samsung tri-fold tablet. As per our source, this device will launch as Galaxy Z Fold Tab in Q1 2022.
The previous leak about this product suggested that it will be releasing in 2021. Unfortunately, that will not be the case. However, we may or may not see a teaser for it during the Galaxy Z Fold3 and Galaxy Z Flip3 launch event, which could take place in early August. This is still being debated by Samsung’s marketing team.
Further, the main highlight of the Galaxy Z Fold Tab apart from its tri-folding capability will be support for hybrid S Pen. This stylus will make its debut alongside the Galaxy Z Fold3 in a few months from now. Unfortunately, we do not have any information about this Bluetooth-enabled stylus except that it will be different from the older S Pens.
Lastly, the forthcoming tri-fold tablet will also sport a better UTG (ultra-thin glass) than the current generation. This new thickened reinforced glass will be introduced in the Galaxy Z Fold2 successor. Essentially, the Galaxy Z Fold3 will be a testbed for Samsung’s first folding tablet.
Anyway, the above-mentioned specifics of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Tab stand true only as of the current development cycle. The final product may vary depending on changes undertaken by the engineering team in the next few months before the design is finalized.
