True wireless earphones (TWS) have now become a mainstream product and most of the smartphone makers have now launched their own TWS earbuds. Xiaomi is also among the leaders in this category.

Now, a new report coming from @DSP-Charles revealed that the Chinese tech giant Xiaomi has rebuilt its team for the TWS product line and this new team is now taking over the task of upgrading the lineup of earphones.

Xiaomi Airdots Pro 2 TWS Review — Xiaomi Airdots Pro 2

The first major thing the team is tasked with is to upgrade the Xiaomi Air series true wireless earphones to the Xiaomi FlipBuds series. For those who are unaware, Xiaomi had trademarked the new TWS lineup — Xiaomi FlipBuds and FlipBuds Pro earlier this year.

The upcoming FlipBuds series will replace the existing Air lineup of TWS earphones but it remains to be seen when are how many wireless earphones get launched this year under the new lineup by Xiaomi.

Currently, Xiaomi has several true wireless earphones under the Air lineup, including the Air 2S, Air 2 SE, Air 2 Pro, AirDots, and more. As of now, there is nothing much known about the FlipBuds lineup but we expect to know more about it in the coming weeks.

According to the data from IDC, Xiaomi was the second leading wearable device maker last year with total shipments of 50.7 million units, capturing 11.4 percent of the market share. Total shipments of wearable devices reached 153.5 million units in Q4 2020, registering a growth of 27.2 percent.

After announcing these two devices for the Chinese market, the tech giant also launched the Realme X7 Pro Ultra, an advanced version of its last flagship of 2020 bringing a better design to the market. If you want to know which is the best flagship killer released by Realme, you are in the right place. This is the specs comparison between Realme GT, Realme GT Neo, and Realme X7 Pro Ultra.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES	Dual SIM slot, 5G	Dual SIM slot, 5G	Dual SIM slot, 5G

Design

The Realme X7 Pro Ultra not only wins this design comparison, but it is the best Realme phone when it comes to aesthetics. It is the only smartphone released by this brand to sport a curved edge-to-edge display. Further, it is thinner and lighter than the Realme GT and the GT Neo. On the other hand, Realme GT 5G comes in a special leather version with a very original design. Even the Realme GT Neo has an interesting design, especially the Final Fantasy color variant. But the Realme X7 Pro Ultra is the most beautiful one.

Display

There are no huge differences between the displays of these three phones. The Realme GT 5G and the Realme GT Neo offer exactly the same panel: a Super AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.43 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, and a 120 Hz refresh rate. The Realme X7 Pro Ultra is slightly inferior because it has a 90 Hz refresh rate, but it still offers a Super AMOLED panel with a Full HD+ resolution and very high brightness. The diagonal in this case is 6.55 inches, but with curved edges.

Hardware/Software

If you need the most powerful handset, go for the Realme GT 5G without thinking twice. It has the best chipset in the Android market: the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform released by Qualcomm. The SoC is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of internal storage. You can get up to 12/256 GB with Realme GT Neo as well, but the processor is weaker: we are talking about the Dimensity 1200 by MediaTek, still a flagship processor but less powerful than Snapdragon 888. The Realme X7 Pro Ultra takes the last position with its Dimensity 1000+ chipset. All the phones run Android 11 out of the box.

Camera

The rear camera setup is exactly the same on all of these devices and it is midrange-class. It includes a 64 MP main camera, an 8 MP ultrawide sensor, and a 2 MP macro camera. There is only a difference: the Realme X7 Pro Ultra has a better 32 MP selfie camera, while Realme GT and GT Neo pack a 16 MP front camera.

Battery

Realme GT, GT Neo, and X7 Pro Ultra pack the same dual-cell 4500 mAh battery, but the Realme GT 5G has a processor built with a better production process, so it has lower energy consumption.

Realme GT 5G vs Realme GT Neo vs Realme X7 Pro Ultra: Price

Realme GT 5G starts from about €424/$510 in China, Realme GT Neo costs about €260/$312 in its base variant, and Realme X7 Pro Ultra starts from €310/$373. The Realme GT 5G is the most advanced device of this comparison, the Realme GT Neo provides the highest value for money, and the Realme X7 Pro Ultra offers the best design and front camera.

OPPO has been updating its older devices with ColorOS 11 based on Android 11 lately. The latest ones to get it were devices like the OPPO A91, Reno2 Z, Reno3 A. Now, the company has started rolling out the update to the OPPO Reno3 5G.

The OPPO Reno3 5G sold via SoftBank in Japan is getting a new OTA update courtesy of the Piunikaweb report. As per the company’s update page, the device has started getting the update with build number A001OP_11_C.13.

This update brings the latest Android 11 to the Reno3 5G device in Japan. This makes the device eligible for getting the update elsewhere. This should also bump up the ColorOS to 11.

If you recall, the OPPO Reno3 5G debuted with ColorOS 7 with Android 10 out of the box and hence, the Android 11 should be the first major Android upgrade for the device. The Android 11 brings features like one-time permissions, app permissions auto reset, chat bubbles and if you want to know more, you can read our coverage.

The ColorOS 11, on the other hand, itself brings a lot of features with it. We have UI customizations, OPPO Relax 2.0, FlexDrop, and more. This stable update comes three months after the commencement of ColorOS 11 Beta in China.

Anyway, if you are someone living in Japan, you can check for the OTA update manually. To do that, go to Settings->Software Update. OPPO recently shared the update rollout plan for April 2021.

Accordingly, it has commenced the Beta program for OPPO Reno Z, OPPO A73 5G, and OPPO A5 2020, and OPPO A9 2020. We can expect more devices to join the list very soon.

Samsung has a new Galaxy S20 FE smartphone. Last year, the manufacturer had announced the Galaxy S20 FE in two versions – a 4G version that has an Exynos 990 processor and a 5G version that has a Snapdragon 865 processor. This new version drops the Exynos 990 processor for a Snapdragon 865 chipset but skips the 5G modem.

The new Galaxy S20 FE 4G has the model number SM-G780G and is already listed on the Samsung Sweden website. The new version will be available in Cloud Lavender, Cloud Navy, Cloud Mint, and Cloud Red. There is only one version available for now and it has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage but it has been reported that there will be a version with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage later.

According to Winfuture.de that first reported about the listing, the Galaxy S20 FE Snapdragon 865 version will sell for about €600 in Germany. However, prices are expected to vary depending on regions.

The Galaxy S20 FE has a 6.5-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED screen with a centered punch hole that is home to a 32MP selfie camera. The phone has a MicroSD card slot that doubles as a second SIM slot. For the cameras, the Galaxy S20 FE has a 12MP main camera with OIS, an 8MP ultrawide angle camera with 3x optical zoom, and a 12MP 123° ultrawide angle camera.

Samsung ships the phone with a 4500mAh battery that supports 15W fast wireless charging and 4.5W fast wireless charging. There is no audio jack but it has stereo speakers. Samsung launched the phone with Android 10 last year, while there is already an Android 11 update, we expect the new version to run Android 11 out of the box.
