The Xiaomi Mi 11 phone will go official on Dec. 28. It is set to arrive as the world’s first smartphone powered by the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform. Xiaomi is yet to reveal the design of the Mi 11. Two live shots of the Xiaomi Mi 11 smartphone have appeared on Weibo to reveal its appearance from the front and rear.
The rear shot of the Xiaomi Mi 11 reveals the presence of a square-shaped camera hosing that includes a triple camera setup and an LED flash. As it is mentioned in the camera housing, it is equipped with a 108-megapixel main camera. The company has revealed that the Mi 11 will come with computational photography technology for capturing better shots.
A careful look at the rear panel shows suggests that it could be featuring a leather back. A recent leak that mentioned the different variants and color editions of the Mi 11 had revealed that it will come in a leather back option. The volume controller and power button can be seen on the right spine of the device.
The second image shows the front view of the Xiaomi Mi 11. The top part of the screen is not visible. However, recent reports have revealed that the Mi 11 has a punch-hole display with a four-sided curved design. According to Xiaomi, the Mi 1 is equipped with a very advanced display. Rumors are rife that it will carry support for up to 120Hz refresh rate and quad HD+ resolution.

The specs mentioned on the screen states that it is powered by a 2.84GHz octa-core processor, which is the Snapdragon 888 5G mobile platform. The SoC is coupled with 12 GB of RAM. The device is loaded with Android 11 OS and MUI 12 skin. Shown above is a render of the Mi 11 that is now doing rounds on social platforms.
Corning has reached the final stage of development for its cover glass for foldable smartphones. The US based company made the announcement earlier this week, making the company an upcoming supplier of Samsung’s foldable smartphones.
According to TheElecreport, Corning launching its own glass cover for foldable handsets will raise the competition with German based Schott to supply them to Samsung. As per a Corning spokesperson, the company is currently at the final stage of the development of foldable glass cover solutions, with mass production and commercialization to begin in 2021.
Back in September 2020, the company had said that it was testing samples and that they planned to launch the cover glass officially within the next 12 months. At the moment, Schott has been the sole supplier of the substrate glass used in the ultra thin glass cover made by Samsung Electronics for its foldable smartphones. For the foldable OLED panel itself, however, Samsung Display‘s subsidiary processes Corning’s glass.
The launch of the cover glass from Corning will also lead to rising competition between Samsung Electronics and Samsung Display over processing the cover glass. At the moment, Samsung Display has signed a three year exclusive purchasing deal with Schott for their glass substrates. However, Samsung Electronics believes that the exclusive contract will limit the chance to reduce unit prices of foldable display panes and is planning to build its own supply chain by procuring glass substrates made by Corning.
Meizu has recently sent out an invitation letter to media agencies to officially announce its new sub brand Lipro, which will focus on smart home products. The invitation is for the conference on 5th January 2021.

According to a TechSinareport, the invitation letter carried an acrylic board and paper invitation card. The name of the brand ‘Lipro’ was hollowed out on to the board. The invitation letter itself carried the word ‘welcome’ in Chinese, which is likely to introduce the new sub brand as well. ‘Inspired by J. Wong’ the founder of the Chinese tech giant can be seen etched on the back of this letter a well.
With this invitation, Meizu is finally entering the smart home industry and will be launching products and services within this market. Lipro is a new brand, which will focus on interconnected IoT products from homes. As per the report, Lipro is a combination of the words ‘life’ and ‘pro.’ This is to imply that the products from the company are intended to make life better.
Unfortunately, finer details regarding the brand and its products are currently unknown. Apart from the name, the company has yet to unveil various other details either. But we can expect to hear more from the company on 5th January 2020. So stay tuned for more, as we will be providing updates when additional information is available.
Huawei had released the EMUI 11 update earlier this year, which is based on the Android 10 operating system from Google. After rolling out the update to its current-generation flagship devices, the company has now started rolling it out to more users.
The latest EMUI 11 update is now being available for the Huawei Mate 30 series devices, including the Mate 30, Mate 30 Pro, and Mate 30 RS Porsche Design. However, first, the update is being rolled out to those users who registered for the beta testing.
The update, which is being rolled out to the users over-the-air (OTA), is about 630MB in size. Here is a list of models that are eligible for the latest update.
The update comes with several new features, including support for large file flash transfer and smart payment. It also brings the November 2020 security patch and fixes the WeChat clone function issue while sharing.
Despite going through tough times because of the sanctions and restrictions imposed by the United States, the Chinese giant continues to make substantial progress. After releasing EMUI 11 earlier this year, the company recently confirmed that within three months of the release, it is now powering over 10 million devices.
Lenovo, the China-based company making consumer electronics, has confirmed that it has appointed Wang Yibo as the global brand ambassador. For those who are unaware, Wang Yibo is a Chinese actor, dancer, singer, rapper, host, and professional motorcycle racer.
Being a brand ambassador, he will now be endorsing all of the consumer products from Lenovo, including notebooks, desktops, tablets, and personal cloud storage peripheral products, as well as the company’s YOGA lineup of devices.
Given the popularity of Wang Yibo among the youngsters and its status as one of the idols for the next-generation, it makes sense for Lenovo to get him as an ambassador. The company will be projecting him to highlight features like strength, innovation, exploration.
Lenovo has been doing good in the laptops market. As per the report, in the first half of this year, the company’s market share reached 32.8 percent — a record for the brand. The company is among the top five laptop makers, which also lists HP, Dell, Apple, and Acer.
It appears that Wang Yibo was also appointed as a Global Brand Ambassador for the Redmi brand in May earlier this year. Prior to that, he was an ambassador for one of the smartphones from the brand.
Huawei had just recently launched two new smartphones at a conference, namely the Nova 8 and the Nova 8 Pro. However, it seems like the company refrained from unveiling a special edition of the device, which features the theme of the popular mobile game Honor of Kings.
According to a recent Weibo post by blogger @看山的叔叔, a Chinese microblogging website, the company will soon launch a Huawei Nova 8 Pro Honor of Kings limited edition variant. For those unaware, Honor of Kings is an online multiplayer video game title for smartphones. It is an online battle arena developed by TiMi Studios and published by Tencent Games for both the iOS and Android platforms. At the moment, the game is one of the most popular titles in the world, especially in China.
So, it does not come as a surprise that China’s largest smartphone brand would launch a special edition based on the game. Although this news is still unconfirmed right now, so take the report with a pinch of salt for now. The Chinese tech giant is known for launching special editions of its popular smartphones so we might see an Honor of Kings variant as well.
While the aesthetic and design of the Nova 8 Pro Honor of Kings version could be unique, its specifications are likely to be the same. This includes the HiSilicon Kirin 985 5G mobile processor, a 6.72 inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and more. Furthermore, the device would likely arrive with optimizations to make the game run at 90fps. Unfortunately, the pricing and availability of the device are still unknown, so stay tuned for more updates.
As the world got hit with the viral outbreak earlier this year, the demand for various electronic products like laptops and desktop PCs rose immensely. This apparently has left manufacturers still being months away to fulfill existing orders with the shortge possibly lasting till 2022, as per analysts and hardware industry executives.
According to a Reutersreport, one of the primary reasons for this sudden rise in demand was caused by the growing remote working or work from home requirements in the professional sense; whilst education was also shifted to the online digital realms due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. The outbreak saw smartphone sales decline while devices with larger displays saw an increase in popularity and demand.
Gregg Prendergast, Pan-America president at hardware maker Acer Inc stated that “The whole supply chain has been strained like never before.” Furthermore, the annual shipments of PCs, including desktops and laptops, had topped out at about 300 million in 2008 and has since been on a steady decline, with only a few predicting such a resurgence in demand. At the moment, projections from analysts note that shipments in 2020 could reach around 300 million as well, which would be up by 15 percent over last year.
Another large screen gadget that has seen impressive sales are tablets. The report also adds that the number of installed tablets and PCs will reach about 1.77 billion. This is up from 1.64 billion in 2019. With various government enforcing local lockdowns, many families had looked to install at least one PC, for children and students in their homes. Notably, even the gaming industry grew as the number of gamers and related hardware also saw growth.
At the moment, many companies and manufacturers are struggling to stock up inventory to keep up with the high demand. A few brands had teased better models and supply through improved shipping, although, whether or not this is true remains to be seen. So stay tuned for more updates regarding the matter.
As Xiaomi is getting near to the official launch of its upcoming flagship smartphone Mi 11 series on 28th December, the company keeps sharing more and more information about the device on social media.

At present, there are only a few mainstream brands such as Samsung, Huawei, and Motorola that are selling foldable smartphones in the market. While Motorola is only foldable phones in a clamshell design, Samsung is offering foldable smartphones in in-folding and clamshell designs. Display analyst Ross Young had claimed earlier this month that companies like OPPO, Vivo, and Xiaomi will together launch four foldable phones in 2021. He had also claimed that Google will also launch a foldable phone in the coming year. Through a fresh tweet, Young has revealed that Xiaomi will launch three kinds of foldable phones.
Young claimed that the next foldable phone to arrive in the market could be from Xiaomi. The Chinese manufacturer has reportedly planned three 3 foldable phones with different designs for 2021. Hence, the brand is expected to unveil foldable phones with designs such as out-folding, an in-folding, and a clamshell.

He added that the out-folding foldable phone from Xiaomi will be like the Huawei Mate X. Hence, it could be a larger device than the company’s in-folding device. Three is a possibility that the out-folding device may feature a display of around 8 inches.
In October, it was revealed by XDA Developers that it could find evidence of a Xiaomi foldable codenamed “Cetus” in the MIUI 12 beta. It was found that the device is equipped with a Snapdragon chipset and a 108-megapixel camera. Other details of the “Cetus” device is currently under wraps. It seems to be one of the upcoming foldable phones that Xiaomi may launch next year.
This year, Xiaomi filed multiple patents for foldable phones with different designs. Hopefully, some of those designs could be seen in the company’s foldable phones that are expected to debut in 2021.
A few days ago, HMD Global had launched its Nokia C1 Plus smartphone in the Chinese market and now the device is up for pre-orders. It is priced at 499 yuan, which roughly converts to $76, and will be available for purchase from 1st January in two color options — Blue and Red.
Being an entry-level offering from the company, the smartphone is targeted towards first-time users. The device comes with a 5.45-inch IPS LCD HD+ display with a screen resolution of 1440 x 720 pixels and an 18:9 aspect ratio.
Under the hood, the phone is powered by a quad-core processor which is clocked at 1.4GHz but the chipset model remains unknown. It packs 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage with support for expandable storage.
In the camera department, there’s a 5MP camera sensor on the back and a 5 MP selfie snapper upfront. As for the software, being an entry-level smartphone, it runs the Android 10 Go Edition out-of-the-box.
Other features on the device include dual-SIM, 4G LTE, single-band WiFi, Bluetooth 4.2, GNSS (GPS, A-GPS), and FM Radio. The phone is powered by a 2,500mAh removable battery with support for 5W charging.
Honor is expected to announce the Honor V40 smartphone in January 2021. It was reported yesterday that the company may announce it on Jan. 12. An unofficial poster of the Honor V40 is now doing rounds on Weibo. It showcases the curved edge display of the smartphone.
A portion of the bottom edge and the left side of the alleged Honor V40 can be seen in the poster. A SIM card slot and a USB-C port can be seen on the bottom side of the smartphone. It seems to feature a metallic frame.
Alleged Honor V40
As far as the display is concerned, the rumor mill has revealed that the Honor V40 could be arriving with a 6.72-inch screen FHD+ display. The top-left corner of the screen could be featuring a pill-shaped cutout for its two front-facing cameras.
The Honor V40 is expected to carry support for a 120Hz refresh rate and its touch sampling rate could be 300Hz. There are speculations it could be housing the same 6.72-inch OLED panel that is available on the recently unveiled Huawei Nova 8 Pro handset. Last year, the Honor V30 featured a 6.57-inch IPS LCD FHD+ panel with a dual punch-hole design and the Nova 6 5G also sported the same sized display with a dual punch-hole design.
There are contradictions regarding the rear design of the Honor V40. A fan-made poster recently revealed that it could be housing a round-shaped camera module. Other reports have claimed that the V40 could be coming with a rectangle-shaped camera housing and the design of its quad cameras could be like the Nova 8 / 8 Pro handset
The Galaxy M12 has been busy bagging various certifications. At the beginning of this month, the smartphone had received approvals from Wi-Fi Alliance and Bluetooth SIG authorities. Later, the Samsung phone was also certified by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Now, it has received certification from Thailand’s National Broadcasting Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) authority. The listing (via) has confirmed the moniker and model number of the device.
The NBTC listing states that the SM-M127F / DS Samsung phone will be arriving in the market as the Galaxy M12. Except for stating that it is an LTE phone, the listing has no information on its other specs. The Wi-Fi and Bluetooth certifications had revealed a few specs like 2.4GHz Wi-Fi support, Bluetooth 5.0, and Android 11 OS. These listings also revealed that the SM-M127G / DS and SM-F127G / DS model numbers are also associated with the Galaxy M12.
While the BIS listing did not reveal any specifications of the phone, its appearance at FCC confirmed that it is backed by a 6,000mAh battery. The handset was also spotted at the Geekbench benchmarking platform recently. It revealed that the Exynos 850 chipset is present under the hood of the device. The SoC was found to be coupled with 3 GB of RAM.

The CAD renders of the Galaxy M12 that surfaced last month revealed that the Galaxy M12 has a 6.5-inch display with an Infinity-V notch design. The images showed that the device is equipped with a square-shaped quad-camera module on its back and a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. With many certifications in tow, there is a possibility that the Galaxy M12 may go official in January.
Recent reports have revealed that Samsung is gearing up to launch a couple of 5G-ready A-series of smartphones such as Galaxy A32 5G, Galaxy A52 5G and Galaxy A72 5G. There are speculations that some of the markets may receive the 4G variants of these phones. Recently, a leak had shared live shots of the rear panels of the Galaxy A32. One of the shots reveals that the images belong to its 4G variant. Last week, the Galaxy A52 4G variant was spotted at the Geekbench benchmarking platform with Snapdragon 720G. Now, the Galaxy A72 5G has also paid a visit to Geekbench 5. The listing reveals that it is also powered by the same chipset.
The model number of the Galaxy A72 5G is SM-A726B, and its 4G variant’s model number is SM-A725F. The Geekbench listing of the 4G model states that it is powered by a Qualcomm chipset that is codenamed as “atoll”. This codenamed is associated with the Snapdragon 720G chipset.
The smartphone can be seen running on Android 11 OS and it has 8 GB of RAM. In the single-core and multi-core tests of Geekbench, the handset has scored 526 and 1623 points, respectively.
It is likely that the 5G and 4G variants of the Galaxy A72 will have identical specs and they may only differ in the chipset department. It is unclear which chipset is present under the hood of the Galaxy A72 5G.
The Honor V40 is the next major phone from the former Huawei subsidiary. The flagship which is expected to launch in January has been reported to pack some impressive features, one of which is support for 45W wireless charging. This news has now been followed by a listing of a new Honor-branded wireless car charger that we believe should launch alongside the phone.
The Honor SuperCharge Wireless Car Charger as it is called has the model number CK030 and was certified on December 23. The charger comes in black and has a mirror-like finish on the front with the manufacturer’s name plastered across.
If this charger looks familiar, then you are right as the Honor SuperCharge Wireless Car Charger is a rebadged Huawei SuperCharge Wireless Car Charger (Max 50W) that launched with the Mate 40 series a few months ago. Even the Vmall listing for the Huawei car charger states its model number is CK030, further confirming that Honor rebadged it.
Rather than manufacturing a special 45W wireless car charger, Honor is simply rebadging the 50W Huawei charger for the Honor V40. Since this is a rebadge, the features should be the same. So the Honor SuperCharge Wireless Car Charger
should have proximity sensors that control the mounting arms, a cooling fan, and up to 16 layers of protection. It should also have a USB-C port and a barrel mouth power input port.
Huawei’s wireless charger is priced at ¥329 (~50) and we expect the Honor SuperCharge Wireless Car Charger to have a similar price tag when it launches.
Just a few months after the launch of the OPPO Reno4 and Reno4 Pro 5G, the Reno5 series came up including the OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G. While the Reno4 Pro is an upper-midrange phone in terms of hardware, with the Reno5 Pro the company decided to go beyond the midrange segment and offer higher performance. But the OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G is not a better phone than Reno4 Pro 5G from every point of view and a lot of people might be confused while evaluating the specifications of these two phones. Which one is the best and for which kind of users? This comparison will highlight the differences between the specifications of the latest Pro variants from the Reno series.

Design
OPPO improved the design with the Reno5 Pro 5G. At a first glance, the two phones might seem identical, but the OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G offers a lot more thanks to its prismatic pattern and fluorescent parts glowing in the dark. The Reno Glow color variants are definitely impressive. However, there are no huge differences if we exclude the colors and the light effects provided by the phones. Despite the OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G packs a bigger battery, it has almost the same dimensions as its predecessor: it is as thin as the Reno4 Pro 5G and even the weight is the same. Both the phones are built with a glass back and an aluminum frame, and they both have a curved screen at the edges and a punch-hole design.
Display
The presence of the HDR10+ certification on the OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G is very interesting, but the OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G provides a higher brightness. However, there are just marginal differences between the displays of these two handsets. Both feature an in-display fingerprint scanner and the same 6.55-inch display size, as well as the same Full HD+ resolution with 1080 x 2400 pixels. We recommend not to give so much importance to the display and go ahead by evaluating the other specifications of these handsets.
Specs & Software
Here is where you can find the most important difference: the chipset. The OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G is powered by the Snapdragon 765G mobile platform which is actually a mid-range SoC. The OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G offers a flagship-class processor: the Dimensity 1000+, actually the best chipset released by MediaTek. The memory configurations are exactly the same: there is one with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, and one with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage. But the software out of the box changes: OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G is based on Android 10 customized by ColorOS 7.2, while OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G runs Android 11 with ColorOS 11.
Camera
OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G is actually a way better camera phone than OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G. The Reno5 Pro 5G has a midrange-class camera department including a 64 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultrawide lens, and a pair of 2 MP sensors for macros and depth calculation. With the OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G, you get a 48 MP main sensor with OIS (the Sony IMX586), a 13 MP telephoto sensor with 2x optical zoom, and a 12 MP ultrawide camera which also works as a dedicated video camera. The front cameras are exactly the same: two 32 MP sensors with f/2.4 focal aperture. So, despite it is an older phone, the OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G is a better camera phone. And it is even one of the best camera phones in the market, especially for those who want to record very nice videos.
The battery capacity is the weakest point of the OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G: it has just 4000 mAh. The OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G has a bigger 4350 mAh battery providing a way longer battery life. Both the phones support 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging technology allowing them to fully-charge with blazing speeds. You need just 36 minutes to charge the OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G from 0 to 100 percent, and just a few minutes more for the Reno5 Pro 5G. Further, the Reno5 Pro 5G features reverse charging.
Price
The OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G launched in the Chinese market with a starting price of about €430/$525: it is still not available in the global market. The listing price of the OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G for the global market is €799/$975 for the 12/256 GB configuration. If you need the best camera department, you should definitely go for the OPPO Reno4 Pro 5G offering OIS and better secondary sensors for the main camera department. But for the rest of the specifications, the Reno5 Pro 5G is the winner: it has better hardware and even a bigger battery. The designs are similar and so are the displays, but the Reno5 Pro is slightly better even from these points of view. I would personally go for the OPPO Reno5 Pro 5G.
