In December 2019, Redmi announced the Xiaomi Redmi K30 5G smartphone in China and it went on sale in the beginning of this year. It debuted as the brand’s first 5G-ready smartphone. The handset has recently received approval from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in India. It suggested that the India launch of the Redmi K30 5G may not be far away. Pricebaba’snew report that has exclusive information from tipster Ishan Agarwal has revealed the variants and color options of the Redmi K30 5G for India.
According to the report, the Redmi K30 5G for India will be available in two color variants such as Frost White and Mist Purple. As far as RAM and storage versions are concerned, the smartphone could be arriving in options such as 6 GB RAM + 64 GB storage, 6 GB RAM + 128 GB storage, and 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage. In China, the Redmi K30 5G came in 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage. India may not receive the 256 GB storage variant.
The Redmi K30 5G has a 6.67-inch IPS LCD display with dual punch-hole design. The screen supports FHD+ resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, and 120Hz refresh rate. It has a 20-megapixel main selfie camera that is assisted by a 2-megapixel depth sensor.
The rear panel of the Redmi K30 5G features a Sony IMX686 64-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 5-megapixel macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth assist lens. The Android 10 OS with MIUI runs on the device.
The Snapdragon 765G SoC fuels the device. It has a 4,500mAh battery with 30W fast charging support. In China, the phone arrived with a starting price of 1,999 Yuan (~$291; ~Rs. 21,350) At present, there is no word on the launch date of the Redmi K30 5G for India.
Recent reports have revealed a lot about the upcoming Huawei Enjoy 20 and Enjoy 20 Plus smartphones. These are expected to break cover as the most affordable 5G phones from the brand. Today, the company took to Weibo to confirm that the new Enjoy 20 series phones will be debuting in China on Sept. 3.
The poster released by the company today showcases two Enjoy 20 series handsets. The one with the circular camera module is the Enjoy 20 Plus 5G, whereas the one that has a square-shaped camera setup is the Enjoy 20. Past reports have revealed the specifications and live shots of the Enjoy 20 and Enjoy 20 Plus 5G phones. It is speculated that the new Enjoy 20 series may debut with 1,000 Yuan (~$146) pricing.
The Enjoy 20 5G has already appeared in TENAA’s database with full specs. The listing revealed that it has a waterdrop notch display of 6.5 inches that offers Full HD+ resolution and 20:9 aspect ratio. The handset has a 5,000mAh battery and it may come with 4 GB / 6 GB / 8 GB of RAM and 64 GB / 128 GB of internal storage. It has an 8-megapixel front camera and a 13-megapixel + 5-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera system.
The Enjoy 20 Plus 5G has a 6.63-inch IPS LCD panel with a 20:9 aspect ratio and FHD+ resolution support. It has a pop-up selfie camera of 16-megapixel and its rear has a 48-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera system. It has a 4,200mAh battery with 40W fast charging support. The phone may come with 6 GB / 8 GB of RAM and 64 GB / 128 GB of native storage.
The Enjoy 20 5G and Enjoy 20 Plus 5G smartphones will be powered by Dimensity chipsets by MediaTek. One of them or both are rumored to be equipped with Dimensity 720 SoC. Both phones run on Android 10 OS and are equipped with side-facing fingerprint readers. The pricing of the Enjoy 20 5G is not known, but the China Telecom product library listing of the Enjoy 20 Plus revealed that it may start at 1,899 Yuan (~$277).
The Redmi family is about to get bigger in India. Just a week after launching the Redmi 9, Redmi India is set to announce the entry-level Redmi 9A.
The manufacturer has set Wednesday, September 2, as the launch date for the smartphone and has also announced that it will go on sale on Friday, September 4. Redmi India is also going to announce a new pair of wired earphones on the same day. So if you will be picking up the device when it launches, you may also want to grab a pair of new earphones as there won’t be one in the box.
The Redmi 9A will have a 6.53-inch HD+ display which is bigger than that of its predecessor but it will keep the waterdrop notch. There is an Helio G25 processor under the hood powering the device. While the international variant has 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, there is a chance the Indian version will have a different configuration.
The phone will have a single 13MP camera on its back and a 5MP selfie camera. Just like the Redmi 8A, it will have a 5000mAh battery capacity, but disappointingly, there is no 18W charging this time around and the USB-C port has been swapped for a MicroUSB one. The Redmi 9A will run MIUI 12 based on Android 10 out of the box.
The Redmi 9A launched in Europe for €99 (~INR 8,625) but it should be cheaper in India since the Redmi 9 which has better specs is priced at INR 8,999 (~€103) for the base model with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.
In recent times phone storage has become really affordable and manufacturers have become so generous such that even budget phones like the Redmi 9 (Indian version) come with 128GB of storage. Notwithstanding, a lot of manufacturers still include the option for storage expansion even on variants with more storage than buyers will need.
For this week’s poll, we want to know if you still use memory cards, that is if your device supports it. Do you still pop in a MicroSD card (or NM card as the case may be) irrespective of the storage capacity of your device or is external storage now a thing of the past? Do take the poll and also post a comment about what you think of external storage.
The Bluetooth SIG website has published the certificate of the earbuds and it confirms it will indeed launch as the Mi True Wireless Earphones 2 Pro. The model number, TWSEJ09WM, also matches the one on the site of the Wireless Power Consortium. The only new info is that the TWS earbuds have Bluetooth 5.0.
There is a possibility the earbuds are close to launching seeing as they have received two certifications already.
The Mi True Wireless Earphones 2 Pro will support wireless charging and also have active noise cancelation. We also know that it will come in black and will have a closed-ear design with silicone tips to keep the sound in. There is also an infrared sensor on each earbud for wear detection and the smooth surface of the outer part of the earbuds point at support for touch controls.
Xiaomi also has another pair of wireless earbuds with noise cancelation on the way. The official name is Mi Active Noise Cancelling Earphones and it has model number LYXQEJ05WM. Other features of the TWS earbuds include Bluetooth 5.0, IPX4 waterproof rating, and support for SBC and AAC audio codecs.
It is no news that Redmi and Realme are close rivals in the smartphone industry. Almost a week ago, Realme announced a pair of wired earphones in India called the Realme Buds Classic. Now, Redmi India has released a teaser video that hints at the launch of its own wired earphones.
The 23-second video was posted on Twitter today with the hashtag #WiredForEverything. In the video, we can make out the outline of the earbuds and the 3.5mm connector which is angled at 90°.
— Redmi India – #Redmi9 is here! (@RedmiIndia) August 30, 2020
The earbuds have silicone tips that should provide passive noise cancelation, unlike the Realme Buds Classic which has an open-fit design like Apple’s EarPods. The video also hints at the new earphones coming in red and blue colorways when they launch on Wednesday, September 2.
These are probably the "Redmi Earphones" (Yeah, that's the name). Launching on 2nd September.
Will be Hi-Res AUDIO Certified and feature a 10mm driver. Basically Wired Budget Earphones with Metal body/design and are pretty lightweight. 😉#Redmihttps://t.co/J9ss3DbQ0G
Ishan Agarwal, the teenage Indian leaker has also provided more details about the earbuds. According to him, the earphones will be sold as the Redmi Earphones. He also adds that the earphones will be Hi-Res Audio certified with 10mm drivers. It will also have a metallic body and will be pretty lightweight.
There is no info with respect to the price yet but Redmi will want to match the price of the Realme Buds Classic which has 14.2mm drivers and is priced at INR 399 (~$5.46). They may also keep the INR 399 price tag of the Mi Earphones Basic that was announced back in 2018 but is now listed as out of stock on the Mi India site.
Transsion Holdings subsidiary Tecno Mobile has disclosed that it would be launching the Camon 16 series models soon. In an era of social distancing, the company is adopting the AR launch approach which was deployed by OnePlus for the Nord launch recently.
The Camon 16 series will be the direct successor of the Camon 15 series made up of the Camon 15 Pro and Camon 15, both of which were introduced in February this year. Although a specific date for the launch is yet to be given, it is scheduled for the second half of the year.
The company released a couple of teaser posters of the Camon 16, one of which shows the front render of the device. The Tecno device packs a fullscreen design with ultra-thin bezels at the chin. The phone comes with a dual punch-hole design located at the top left corner of the display. The device will pack a 48MP selfie camera but the second sensor is not known yet.
At the rear, the Camon 16 will adopt a Quad-camera setup which Tecno says will be of flagship level. The main camera is a 64MP sensor which is higher than the 48MP main sensor on its predecessor.
The company is yet to reveal other specs details. Since we are already in the second half of the year, we expect the launch event to take place pretty soon. The phone may likely be available in Tecno’s key markets such as Nigeria, India, Pakistan etc.
Samsung first launched the Wireless Charger Duo in 2018 and the product was well-received. Two years after, the tech giant is now planning to introduce a new model which is designed to charge three devices at the same time. A render of the wireless charger has now leaked online thanks to noted tipster Evan Blass.
The Samsung Wireless Charger Pad Trio as it will be called comes with a USB-C port and may likely ship with a fast-charging cable and USB-C power adapter. The charger may also feature support for the Qi wireless charging standard just like its predecessor.
The Wireless Charger Pad Trio will likely offer 15W charging support similar to what obtains on the Wireless Charger Duo. Although the render shos a black variant, Samsung may also include a while coloured variant.
The leakage of this high-resolution render is an indication that the company may take the wraps off the product pretty soon but there is no word yet on the launch date. Samsung is scheduled to launch the Galaxy Z Fold 2 on September 1st. The company may also announce this new accessory too.
The Galaxy M51 is a new smartphone from Samsung that is scheduled to launch in India soon. Surprisingly, the device is now available for pre-order in Germany. The page for the phone is also live on the official Samsung Germany website.
The Galaxy M51 has a 6.7-inch Infinity-O Super AMOLED display. There is a hole in the upper part of the screen for the 32MP selfie camera and above it is a small grille for the speaker. The device has a glossy back that is home to four cameras and buyers will be able to choose between purchasing the phone in Black or White.
The device has an octa-core processor, and as is typical of Samsung, the chipset is not specified. However, we are pretty sure it is a 4G processor. The Galaxy M51 is available in only one configuration and that is with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. There is a MicroSD card slot that allows you to add an additional 512GB of storage.
The rear cameras include a 5MP f/2.4 depth camera, a 64MP f/1.8 main camera, a 12MP f/2.2 camera with a 123° field of view, and a 5MP f/2.4 macro camera. There are lots of camera features including the familiar Live Focus, panorama, and macro mode.
The major highlight of the Galaxy M51 is its massive 7000mAh battery capacity and there is 25W fast charging too so you can recharge and get back to gaming as fast as possible. Even though the phone has an AMOLED display, Samsung has opted for a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. The phone also runs Android 10 with One UI Core on top.
The Samsung site says the device is available for pre-order for a price tag of €360.01 and the estimated shipping date at checkout is September 11.
Xiaomi Mi Watch Color will launch as the Mi Watch Revolve in India
The info was reported by 91Mobiles who cites the teenage leaker Ishan Agarwal as their source. They also speculate the watch will cost about INR 6,000 (~$80) since it launched in China for ¥599 (~$87). However, we believe it will sell for higher.
The watch will most likely be imported, and with taxes and other costs factored in, a higher price tag than what it sells for in China is a no-brainer. Our guess is that the Mi Watch Revolve will sell for nothing less than INR 8,000 (~$109) when it lands in India.
When Xiaomi announces the watch in India, it will face competition from Huami’s Amazfit line of watches, most especially the Amazfit GTR which is currently priced at INR 9,999 (~$137).
Xiaomi is also expected to launch the Mi Smart Band 5/Mi Band 5 in India. The watch already launched in Europe in July for a price tag of €39.99. The Mi Smart Band 5 comes with significant improvements over its predecessor such as a larger display, support for more workout modes, a more accurate PPG heart rate sensor, and a new charger that doesn’t require you to remove the capsule from the strap.
We expect both launches to happen in September. The Mi Smart Band 4 launched on Tuesday, September 17 last year in India, so September 15 seems like a possible date for this year’s announcement.
The Mi 9 SE is the latest Xiaomi smartphone to get the MIUI 12 update. The global variants of the upper mid-range phone which was announced last year already received the MIUI 12 update. Now, it is the turn of the China variant.
The update is 833MB in size according to a screenshot shared by ITHome and it comes with version number V12.0.2.0.QFBCNXM. The Chinese blog reports that while the update brings some significant improvements, there are still some bugs according to those who have installed it.
MIUI 12 brings a revamped user interface, new animation engine, new permission settings, and more.
The Mi 9 SE has a 5.97-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a waterdrop notch. There is a fingerprint scanner under the display and the notch is home to a 20MP selfie camera. The device has a Snapdragon 712 processor under the hood that is paired with 6GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of non-expandable storage.
On the back is a 48MP main camera + 8MP ultrawide camera + 13MP telephoto camera setup and under the glass back is a 3070mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging.
This year, Xiaomi didn’t release a Mi 10 SE which was disappointing which meant folks couldn’t pick up a smaller sized Mi 10 with watered-down specs and a more affordable price tag.
The Realme 7 series is set for a September 3 launch date in India. Despite still being a few days away, there have been numerous leaks including the spec sheet of both devices. Now an unboxing video of the Realme 7 has been posted on YouTube and it confirms what we already know.
The video was posted by the Vietnamese YouTube channel “Mix with remix”. While Realme has not yet announced the phone will launch in Vietnam, it should be.
The video shows the Realme 7 will ship in a rectangular box with Realme’s signature bright yellow color. There is a “7” written on the top of the box in large black font while the manufacturer’s name is written in a smaller font at the bottom.
The back of the box has some key specs printed on it such as a 64MP Sony sensor, quad cameras, Helio G95 gaming processor, 30W Dart Charge, 5000mAh battery capacity, and a 90Hz Ultra Smooth Display. The unit inside the box is a gray unit and it comes with a white 30W Dart Charger, a USB-A to USB-C cable, and a .
The Realme 7 has a punch-hole that is placed at the top left corner for the selfie camera. It also has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner as the display is LCD and not AMOLED. The back is home to the 64MP quad-camera setup housed in a black housing along with the LED flash. At the bottom of the phone are an audio jack, a microphone, a USB-C port, and a speaker grille.
When booted up, the About Phone page shows the device has 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It also runs Android 10 out of the box. Alongside the 64MP primary camera, there is an 8MP ultrawide angle camera, a 2MP Black and White sensor and a 2MP depth sensor. The video also shows the Realme 7 has a triple card slot so you can use two SIM cards and a MicroSD card at the same time.
MediaTek is yet to announce the Helio G95 processor that powers the device. However, it is clear that Realme will be the first manufacturer to launch a phone powered by the processor.
It has been only 2 years since realme entered the smartphone market. But within a short period of time, it has become the fastest-growing smartphone brand globally with a presence in 61 countries and regions. Li Bingzhong (Sky Li), the brand’s founder and CEO shared the breakthroughs of his company along with their next target on Weibo.
The CEO of realme shared a letter on his Weibo profile in the form of an image. It goes into detail regarding the achievements gained by the brand in the last two years.
In his letter, the company executive mentions that realme continued to be the fastest-growing smartphone brand in four consecutive quarters. Above all, it ranked number 7 seven globally in the last quarter in terms of market share.
Sky Li says that people questioned if there’s a place for a new smartphone brand when realme was established. But his brand company exceeded expectations by proving that new brands do have a place in the market.
He added that in the next two years, the brand will focus more on AIoT and expanding its presence in more markets. The executive wishes his company to become a leading player in almost all regions such as South Asia, Southeast Asia, Middle East, Africa, Europe, Latin America, China, and Russia.
Last but not least, realme aims to sell 100 million units of smartphones annually in order to sit beside mainstream brands.
Honor has confirmed that it has a new smartwatch on the way. The wearable will launch as the Honor Watch GS Pro on September 4 at IFA 2020. However, that isn’t the only smartwatch we should expect from the Huawei-owned company.
The president of Honor, George Zhao, asked on Weibo a few days ago if folks prefer round dials or square dials. The top executive’s post is actually a quote of another post that was made by the official Honor Life Weibo account. This original post includes a long image, part of which we have cut out and added below.
As you can see, the image shows two hands holding each other. On one wrist is a watch with a round dial and on the other wrist is a watch with a square/rectangular dial. The latter has a display similar to that of the recently announced Huawei Watch Fit.
Honor doesn’t have a watch with that design and we want to believe it is teasing the arrival of its first watch with a square dial. However, it will most likely be Honor’s version of the Huawei Watch Fit. This is not the first time Honor will launch a product similar to that announced by its parent company. And as is the tradition, Honor’s version usually costs less.
The Huawei Watch Fit has a 1.64-inch 280 x 456 AMOLED display with a 70% screen-to-body ratio. There are lots of customizable watch faces including AOD ones. The watch has 12 animated exercises built-in and can track up to 11 different sports. There is also a custom workout mode. The watch also has GPS, a heart rate sensor, sleep tracking, SpO2 detection, and menstrual cycle tracking. Huawei claims its new watch has a battery life of 10 days with typical usage and has put a price tag of 399 AED (~$110) on it.
Instead of pursuing foldables like Samsung and Huawei, LG has been releasing devices with support for a dual-screen accessory. Now, it is taking this implementation a notch higher by integrating a secondary rotating (twisting) display at the back of the phone. This device is known as LG Wing and it had leaked multiple times in the past few days. Now, its price leaks as well.
The upcoming LG Wing is one of the bizarre smartphones of 2020. This is not the first time the company is doing something unique. A few years back, it tested waters with the concept of modularity. The result was half-baked “LG G5 and Friends”, which did not pan out very well.
The Wing is trying to fill the shoes left by G5 but will it succeed for the asking price of around $1,000? Yes, that’s the price tipped by the source of XDA Developers. It will be launching this fall in the US for the above-mentioned retail price.
With most flagship smartphones now starting at $1,000, there seems to be nothing wrong with the price tag of LG’s unique handset. But the question is how useful that secondary display will be? One of the leaked videos showcases the rotating screen to display the stock music app and call notification when the main screen is in use for navigation. Whereas, in the second video, we can notice the secondary panel in use for the in-game map while playing Gameloft’s Asphalt on the main screen.
These are only two examples of its use case but we are certain there could be much more. But will the developers take interest in optimizing their apps for an LG smartphone, considering the fact the company is not a major global player?
Also, it is worth noting that it is reported to feature mid-range Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G and not Snapdragon 865 like any other handsets in this range. Anyway, we will know the future of this unique LG phone when it will go official in the coming weeks.
The OnePlus Nord launched in India and Europe. While OnePlus did explicitly say that the phone will not be sold in North America, it said nothing about a launch in China.
Yesterday, it was reported that the phone may be launching in China soon, but a OnePlus official says otherwise. The news comes from ITHome who reported that a system development engineer at OnePlus has revealed that the OnePlus Nord will not be sold in China.
The OnePlus Nord is a mid-range 5G smartphone with a 6.44-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a pill-shaped punch hole for 32MP + 8MP dual selfie cameras and a 90Hz refresh rate.
Under the hood of the phone is a Snapdragon 765G processor with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It also has 48MP + 8MP + 5MP + 2MP quad cameras, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and a 4115mAh battery that charges from empty to 70% in 30 minutes. The phone also has Bluetooth 5.1, NFC, and dual SIM support.
OnePlus has been in the news a lot lately, mainly as a result of its upcoming mid-range phones under the Nord line. Now, the manufacturer has announced it is recruiting testers for OnePlus accessories.
According to the info on the official OnePlus Forums, they are recruiting folks to become official OnePlus Accessory Testers. Those selected will get the chance to test at least three products over the course of a year.
To become a OnePlus Accessory Tester, you have to post a review of an accessory you own in the Accessories subforum. This is not a review you have posted before and it should be written by you. The rules say only one entry is accepted per user and entries will be accepted until September 15. You can read more about the requirements here.
Accessories have become an additional source of revenue for phone manufacturers including OnePlus in recent years. However, the need to recruit testers may mean OnePlus is planning to take this aspect of its business more seriously.
We presume OnePlus’s plan is to begin making accessories not only for its own phones but for those from other manufacturers too. Hopefully, power banks are some of these products. Earlier this year, Carl Pei, the co-founder of OnePlus, posted a tweet hinting at the launch of a power bank with fast charging. It has been six months now and we are yet to see OnePlus’s power bank but we have a feeling it will arrive soon along with other products.
Redmi has a lot of affordable devices in its portfolio, but a lot of people make confusion with their names. Often they differ just for a number or a little word, that is why it is hard for a lot of people to distinguish them and find the best device for their needs. Here is a comparison between three devices with similar names but different specifications released recently by Xiaomi’s brand. We are talking about Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and Redmi Note 9 Pro. In this article, you will find the main differences between these three handsets.
Xiaomi Redmi 9 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro

Design
Redmi Note 9 and 9 Pro feature a similar design, but the latter is more beautiful and it has a slightly better build quality. The punch hole on the Redmi Note 9 is placed on the upper left corner, while on the Note 9 Pro it is placed centrally. The Redmi Note 9 Pro has a smaller camera module and a glass back protected by Gorilla Glass 5, so it wins the design and builds quality comparisons. But you should note that Note 9 Pro has bigger dimensions due to its wider display. Redmi 9 looks more outdated due to its waterdrop notch, but its rear side is more elegant.
Display
With Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and Note 9 Pro, you get average IPS displays. Nothing special, closer to entry-level phones than flagships. The Redmi Note 9 and Note 9 Pro have a better panel since they feature a higher brightness and a slightly better quality, but the differences with the Redmi 9 are just marginal. Note that Note 9 Pro has a wider display than Redmi Note 9 and Redmi 9 (6.67 inches vs 6.53 inches).
Specs & Software
The hardware department is the main difference that people look for when they evaluate these three devices. The Redmi 9 is fueled by the Helio G80 chipset, while the Redmi Note 9 has an Helio G85 under the hood. As you probably understood from the name, there is not a huge performance difference between Redmi 9 and Redmi Note 9. But the situation is totally different when it comes to the Redmi Note 9 Pro: this handset sports a more powerful Snapdragon 720G SoC and up to 6 GB of RAM paired with 128 GB of UFS 2.1 native storage. These are all Redmi phones, so you get the same operating system and the same user interface: Android 10 customized by MIUI 11.
Camera
Redmi Note 9 and 9 Pro are similar in terms of camera performance. They both feature a 48 MP main sensor and a quad rear camera, but the Note 9 Pro has a 5 MP macro sensor instead of a 2 MP macro sensor. That is just a marginal difference that does not impact the overall photo quality. Redmi 9 is way inferior because it features an entry-level 13 MP main sensor. So, you should go for the Redmi 9 only if cameras are not your priority. We can tell you the same if we talk about front cameras: Note 9 Pro is the best with its 16 MP snapper, Redmi Note 9 comes right after with its 13 MP lens, and Redmi 9 lags behind with an 8 MP selfie camera.
Battery
Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and Redmi Note 9 Pro pack exactly the same battery with a 5020 mAh capacity. But the Note 9 Pro has a more efficient chipset since it is built with a better production process (8 nm vs 12 nm). That is why Note 9 Pro lasts more on a single charge. An interesting advantage of the Redmi Note 9 is the reverse charging support.
Price
Redmi 9 is expected to be priced Rs. 8,999 in India and it will launch on August 31. Redmi Note 9 is priced Rs. 11,999, while Note 9 Pro is priced Rs. 13,999. If you can spend more, go for Note 9 Pro without thinking twice: it has a way better chipset with lower energy consumption. If you can not spend so much, choose the Redmi Note 9 only if you care about cameras, otherwise, go for the Redmi 9 since it offers a higher value for money.
Xiaomi has launched a new smart product under the Youpin platform. The product is called Seconds Smart Clock, Thermometer and Hygrometer. and carries an affordable 149 yuan (~$21) price tag.
As the name implies, the gadget is a clock which also doubles as a hygrometer and thermometer. It uses an electronic ink screen which is close to the paper-like display texture, ensuring ultra-low power consumption. It equally has functions such as temperature and humidity monitoring, smart alarm clock, one-button timer, healthy tomato working method and many other selling points.
The sensor for measuring temperature and humidity every second is selected from Swiss Sensirion’s high-precision digital sensor, which can quickly and accurately detect subtle changes in temperature and humidity.
The smart clock also comes with Bluetooth connectivity and supports pairing with the MIJIA app. Through the MIJIA Bluetooth gateway, it can be linked with other smart devices in the home to improve indoor heating and cooling and make your home more comfortable.
The clock has a built-in high-precision RTC clock chip and a backup battery, and the correct time is displayed when the power is turned on. The time still remains accurate after a battery replacement thanks to the backup battery. With the MIJIA app, you can customize 18 groups of alarm clocks.
It also supports the one-key start timer function. The timer function has two ways of counting; up and down, designed to meet your routine timing needs in your life.
Huawei recently announced the Watch Fit but it still has one more smartwatch in the pipeline scheduled to launch this year. That watch is the Huawei Watch GT 2 Pro and a new leak has revealed what it will look like.
The source of the leak is the Turkish website, Huaweiailesi. As seen in the images posted below, the Watch GT 2 Pro will keep the circular dial design of its predecessors.
The watch will come in two variants – Classic and Sport – with the former available in Nebula Gray and the latter available in Night Black. Both watches have a slimmer and more classy design when compared to the standard Huawei Watch GT 2. There is no tachymeter this time and the lugs are larger but there are still only two buttons on the right side.
One of the images shows the Huawei Watch GT 2 Pro will support voice calls which should mean there will be an LTE version. Another image shows the watch has water resistance. We can also see Huawei is promising a 2-week battery life for this model too.
1 of 5
Huawei Watch GT 2 Pro
The Watch GT 2 Pro is expected to come with lots of new features including support for wireless charging. There is an image that shows the phone being charged by a Huawei phone and there is another of the wireless charging station for the watch. The charging station is shown to have a USB-C cable.
Huawei is expected to launch the Watch GT 2 Pro alongside the Mate 40 series but it also has a launch event in China on September 10 whose poster teases the launch of a smartwatch, so there is a possibility of the smartwatch launching on that day.
