Apr 17, 2021

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.

There is a 5.9-inch Chinese flagship phone coming

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 10 series tipped to launch soon in India, Redmi Note 10S India storage, color variants leaked

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 A54 will 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.

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.

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 All Colors — 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.

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.

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.

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.

Apr 16, 2021

realme is gearing up to launch the realme Q3 in China very soon. And going by the realme President, China, Xu Qi’s recent post on Weibo, we can expect it as early as next week. Today, he has also shared a picture that shows a fluorescent “glow in the dark” logo on it.

In a Weibo post, Xu Qi shared a GIF image to say what will appear on the back of the device. We cannot quite catch its design but what is visible is that the device has a big DARE TO LEAP logo on the back. This seems to be coated with Phosphorescent paint to make it glow in the dark scenarios.

We have already seen fluorescent back panels on realme devices and the recent one is the realme 8 Pro illuminating yellow variant. For the unware, Phosphorescent paint is made from phosphors such as silver-activated zinc sulfide or doped strontium aluminate.

That said, the material is just a guess from our side and realme hasn’t confirmed what it has used on the back panel so let’s wait for official info.

Anyway, the realme Q3 is shaping out to be a pretty exciting device to look at not just the outside but inside as well. The device is said to feature MediaTek Dimensity 1100 chipset on the inside.

The realme Q series is generally focused on budget users and the predecessor realme Q2 series is an example of it. The realme Q3 is likely to continue that and feature a 120Hz display, 4,500mAh battery, and ship with a 65W charger in the box just like its predecessor.

realme has already said that the new realme Q series will strike a balance between price and performance. This goes in line with the price rumors which is said to be within 2,000 yuan($300). Let’s wait till next week to find out more.
