It is believed that the iQOO 5 series launching on Aug. 17 has two models. One could be a standard model whereas the other one could be a top model. A Vivo phone with model number V2024A was certified by the 3C authority of China. The 5G phone was spotted with a 55W charger. This model number is mentioned in the iQOO 5 reservations page on JD.com. It indicates that the model number belongs to the standard version of the iQOO 5. A new smartphone with a V2025A model number has received approval from the 3C certification platform. Since it has been spotted with a 120W charger, it seems to the top variant of the iQOO 5.
The V2025A’s 3C listing shows that it is a 5G phone and it is accompanied with a charger that has a V12060L0C0-CN model number. It supports maximum charging rates of 20V/6A (120W).
According to a Chinese tipster, the V2025A will be made official as iQOO 5 Pro. He added that its charging port is backward compatible with 55W/44W fast charging technology and it also supports 65W PD fast charging. It is speculated that the handset has a 4,000mAh battery. With 120W charging tech, the phone can fully charge in 15 minutes, claims the company.
iQOO has revealed that the iQOO 5 series is powered by Snapdragon 865 mobile platform. The SoC is coupled with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. It is known that the iQOO 5 houses an AMOLED display with punch-hole design. The screen curves impressively towards the left and right edges. It supports a 120Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sampling rate.
A poster released by the company today states that the iQOO 5 has a 120db high dynamic Hi-Fi audio chip and stereo speakers. It supports Hi-Res audio. However, a video commercial of the phone that is doing rounds on Weibo shows that it lacks a 3.5mm audio jack. The video also suggests that the phone’s rear is equipped with a Vivo X50 Pro-like camera setup with a large-sized main camera sensor.
If you want a smartphone with a foldable display, you can actually purchase one this very minute. Manufacturers such as Samsung, Huawei, Motorola, and Flexpai have announced commercially available foldable devices with flexible OLED panels. However, OLED panels are not the only type of screens that have been made foldable. There are also flexible e-ink displays and E Ink just announced a new one.
Image source: ITHome
The new E Ink display is the 10.3-inch flexible ePaper display and it seems to have been announced very recently. It is just 0.1-inches larger than the version announced back in 2017. The main difference between the two seems to be the addition of a backlight to the new model, to make it easier to see even in low-light.
The flexible ePaper display will find good use in eReaders, e-ink notebooks, eNewspapers, and even small-sized signage boards. At the moment, there isn’t any commercially-available eReader that uses a flexible ePaper display and we are not sure we will see one soon. Wearable manufacturers also do not seem too keen to adopt flexible e-ink displays for use in their products.
Who said new flagships are always better than older ones? Never been so wrong. Samsung announced the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra at its Unpacked event yesterday: it is a great handset and it brings a lot of new features to the shelves, but not all of its specifications are superior to its predecessor Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. This does not mean that the S20 Ultra is better than the Note 20 Ultra, but it depends on the kind of user you are if you are looking for a new flagship. This specs comparison will highlight all the main differences between Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra and, hopefully, it will let you understand which one is better for your needs.

Design
Under the design point of view, despite being more productivity-oriented Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G wins the battle. It has a higher screen-to-body ratio and it comes in a wonderful matte color variant called Mystic Bronze which I consider definitely more beautiful than all the color variants of the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G. Even the camera module is more elegant, and the build quality is higher. The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra features the new Gorilla Glass Victus protection by Corning allowing it to survive to drops up to 2 meters on hard surfaces. Both the phones are waterproof with the IP68 certification. Despite the presence of a slot for the S Pen, the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is thinner and lighter than Galaxy S20 Ultra.
Display
There are only marginal differences when it comes to display quality, so we are not focusing too much on it. But there is an important difference which will make productivity users go for the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra: the S Pen support. With the S Pen, you can handwrite and draw with a very high accuracy thanks to an active digitizer for the stylus, you can remotely control the smartphone via Bluetooth and you can even perform air gestures. The dedicated physical key of the S Pen also allows shooting photos remotely. The display of the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is slightly wider since the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra has a taller aspect ratio.
Specs & Software
In the Snapdragon version, the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra actually offers a better chipset than the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. It is powered by the Snapdragon 865+ which offers a 10% boost in CPU and GPU performance, compared to the Snapdragon 865 found on the Galaxy S20 Ultra. But in the Exynos version (the one sold in the European market), Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Galaxy S20 Ultra have exactly the same SoC: Exynos 990. EU customers are disappointed: some of them even opened class actions against the Exynos 990 on the S20 Ultra, yet Samsung decided to keep the processor on the Note 20 Ultra without even releasing an upgrade. Both the phone runs Android 10 out of the box, but the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra comes with more productivity features such as wireless DeX and deep integration with Microsoft services.
Camera
The camera department of the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is superior to the one of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. Both the phones come with the same 108 MP main sensor, but the Galaxy S20 Ultra has a better periscope camera with a 48 MP resolution, as well as a better front camera with a 40 MP resolution. With the Galaxy S20 Ultra, you even get an additional 0.3 MP ToF 3D camera which is not present on the Note 20 Ultra.
The battery of the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is bigger and that means it offers a longer battery life, given that the two phones come with the same software and similar specifications. Despite being bigger, it still charges faster thanks to a faster charging technology (45W power against 25W of the Note 20 Ultra).
Price
The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra has a starting price of €1329 in Europe and $1300 in the U.S., while Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra starts from €1349/$1150, but it is actually a lot more affordable thanks to street prices. If you are a productivity user and you prefer having the S Pen, then the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is actually a better option. Otherwise, Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is a superior phone due to better cameras and longer battery life. Note that in the Exynos version it has the same hardware and similar display to the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, while in the Snapdragon version, it has a slightly better processor.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G vs Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G: PRO and CONS
The Huawei P9 was released in 2016 and has already gotten four successors. However, Huawei is not done releasing updates for the device. The latest one rolling out to the device updates the security patch and brings a new feature too.
The update which is rolling out in China has build number EVA-AL10 8.0.0.550(C00) and is about 660MB in size. It comes with the security patch for July 2020 which is rolling out to phones such as the OnePlus 7 series and the Realme 5 series.
It has also been reported that the update brings a feature called Smart Charging that prevents the device from overcharging when plugged in to charge, most especially overnight. The feature slows down charging during the night since it knows the user will be asleep. The feature also helps slow down the battery’s aging process, though we are not sure about the battery life of a 4-year old device.
The Huawei P9 has a 5.2-inch screen with a 1920 x 1080 resolution. There is a Kirin 955 processor under the hood along with 3GB or 4GB of RAM and 32GB or 64GB of storage. On the back is a 12MP dual-camera setup in an RGB+B/W setup while the front is home to an 8MP selfie camera.
The device has a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, NFC, an audio jack, and a 3000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. When it launched, it ran Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box and got an update to Android 7.0 Nougat.
US President Donald Trump’s threat to ban TikTok has been in the news for quite a while and is responsible for Microsoft’s bid to acquire the social media giant’s US business. While a deal is yet to be struck, Instagram has launched its own video sharing platform that is aimed at taking on TikTok.
The platform known as Reels was first launched Brazil two months back. But now, the company has announced that the platform will be available on the Instagram app. The feature will allow users to record and edit 15-second multi-clip videos with audio, effects, and new creative tools. The feature will be made available in 50 countries.
The Instagram Reels is located in the Instagram Camera, the button in the top left corner with an overhaul of the entire interface. There are now several tools for editing. This includes adding Audio, AR Effects, Timer and Countdown for all the fun dances you want to do.
Users can share Reels the same way they share Live videos or regular posts but there is a dedicated tab on the profile where the videos will be located which makes it visible to everyone. Alternatively, only your followers can see the videos ff you set your privacy settings to Private.
There are also options of saving a reel as a draft before publishing. The cover image can also be changed and all other features that come to play when posting a video. The process of watching a ree posted by someone is also akin to viewing a regular photo or video. It appears either in the Feed or in the Discover tab. Instagram is also tagging some as “Featured” to “help users discover original content that will entertain and inspire”.
As of now, Instagram is yet to release a list of the countries where Reels will be available but Brazil, where it was tested, is definitely one of them. The feature has also launched in the United States, the United Kingdom, India, Japan, Australia, France and Germany. Let us know your experience in the comment section if you have got the feature.
Honor 20 was one of the last Huawei smartphones to launch in India with GMS (Google Mobile Services). This handset came with Magic UI 2.1 based on Android Pie out of the box. Now, it is receiving the newly released Magic UI 3.1 in the country.
Just like Xiaomi (MIUI 12), Huawei has been rolling out EMUI 10.1/Magic UI 3.1 to its smartphones and tablets worldwide. After completing the rollout in China, the company is focusing on international markets.
Just last month, Honor 20 and Honor 20 Pro began to receive the much-awaited Magic UI 3.1 in Europe. Now, the same update is live in India but only the former device has got it so far.
The latest OTA system update for Honor 20 in India weighs a whopping 4.63GB in size and comes with build number 10.1.0.230. Apart from bringing new features, the update also bumps up the security patch level to June 2020.
The new Huawei mobile software brings features like Multi-Screen Collaboration, Cross-Device Photo Gallery, Multi-Window, Huawei MeeTime video calling app, and more.
As usual, the update is being rolled out in batches and hence it may take time to reach every unit out there.
Roborock S6 MaxV Vacuum cleaner was launched in April with an advanced level of intelligence and security. It houses intelligent obstacle avoidance with the help of Qualcomm’s maturity and experience. However, a new update with version 01.44.36 is rolling out to Roborock S6 MaxV with plenty of new features and changes. It also packs some bug fixes and refinements for obstacle recognition feature.
Roborock S6 MaxV update brings new Remote viewing feature whilst ensuring the privacy of users’ data. It can now easily recognize different fabrics like socks, and the user can view photos of unknown objects taken by the robot.
The existing features have also perceived some refinements. It enhances the obstacle avoidance features, increases the positioning accuracy and efficiency, and improves water control for more even flow. There are general bug fixes and UI adjustments to improve the user experience.

It has improved the video-based function’s security by introducing two-factor authentication and even engaged with TUV-Rheinland to find security flaws. The device underwent around 60 tests from user-authorization to app cybersecurity and passed with flying colors.
Roborock S6 MaxV does not carry any security anomaly and TUV Rheinland has certified it with ERSI TS 103645 certification.
Note: ETSI TS 103645 is a consumer IoT standard issued by ETSI (European Telecommunication Standardization Committee). Being awarded TUV Rheinland’s ETSI TS 103645 certificate means the product has reached a high cybersecurity level and privacy protection level.

Xiaomi has been rolling out MIUI 12 stable updates to its huge portfolio of eligible devices worldwide. As most of the high-end and mid-range smartphones have received it, the company has now turned toward budget handsets. Currently, the Remi S2 and Redmi 6 Pro from 2018 have begun to get the update in China.
Both the Redmi S2 and Redmi 6 Pro launched with MIUI 9 based on Android Oreo out of the box. They were later updated to MIUI 10, followed by Android Pie and MIUI 11. Now, they have also started to receive MIUI 12, however, only in China for now.
The MIUI 12 stable update for Redmi S2 and Redmi 6 Pro comes with build number V12.0.4.0.PEFCNXM and V12.0.1.0.PDICNXM respectively. However, it does not bring all the features like AOD+ as these phones sport LCD panels.
But it does bring all the major new features like new animations, icons, control center, revamped settings, granular privacy controls, floating windows, Dark Mode 2.0, and more.
That said, we can now expect the global variants of these handsets to get the update very soon. For those unaware, Redmi S2 is also known as Redmi Y2 (India) while Redmi 6 Pro was also available as Mi A2 Lite in certain regions but that device won’t get MIUI 12 update as it is part of Android One program.
Intel was initially in the race to manufacture 5G chips but it abandoned that dream as a result of the dominance of Qualcomm. Instead, the company entered into a partnership with MediaTek to supply 5G modems for use on its laptop processors.
The partnership has yielded its first fruit and it is the T700 5G modem which according to Engadget has now been announced. The 5G modem is MediaTek’s first 5G product for laptops and it will find its way into the next-generation Intel-powered laptops.
The chip features support for Sub-6 5G and standalone 5G calls which are not dependent on the existing LTE network. In addition, MediaTek says it comes with support for non-standalone Sub-6 5G networks and is “highly power-efficient”. That means you won’t have to bother about battery life when surfing the internet on 5G or making calls.
There are already laptops wit 5G connectivity support but most of the models in the market are powered by Qualcomm’s 5G modems. This new MediaTek T700 5G will likely bring down the prices of 5G laptops packing the modem since MediaTek ‘s prices are less than Qualcomm’s. We expect to see it on laptops pretty soon.
A press release sent to us says the feature will be available to owners of the OnePlus 7 Pro, OnePlus 7T series, and OnePlus 8 series which all have a refresh rate of 90Hz and up. They will be able to experience PUBG exclusively at this new rate starting today, August 6, until September 6. Surprisingly, the OnePlus Nord which also has a 90Hz refresh rate is missing from the list.
OnePlus says the exclusive experience is available to users across the globe excluding those in Mainland China, Japan, and Korea.
Playing at 90 FPS is said to be evident while panning, using a scope, running, and searching for other players at a distance. this means you should get an edge over other gamers playing at a lower frame rate.
Do you use any of the aforementioned phones? Do you play PUBG? Let us know what the new experience feels like.
There have been several speculations regarding the Realme X3 Pro but the company is yet to officially reveal anything about the model. In the early part of this year, a Realme-branded model bearing the model number RMX2121 was spotted on TENAA and it is believed to be the X3 Pro.
A Realme model bearing a different model number has now appeared on the benchmarking app GeekBench database. The device adopts the codename RMX2083 and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ chipset. This springs up confusion as to the actual configuration of the actual X3 Pro.
The Realme X3 and X3 Superzoom are both powered by a Snapdragon 855+ so, the X3 Pro may as well pack a Snapdragon 855+ chipset. However, just recently a third model with model number RMX2170 and said to be the X3 Pro was certified by TUV Rheinland. The model packs a 65W fast charge support.
Realme has already launched the X3 and X3 Superzoom a few months back. The X3 Superzoom came with a telephoto camera which supports up to 5X optical zoom. The phone equally features up to 12 GB RAM and an impressive 32 MP selfie shooter.
At the moment, the exact specifications of the model are unknown but GeekBench shows it will have 8GB of RAM and will run on Android 10 operating system. There speculations that Realme will launch the model during its maiden appearance at IFA Berlin 2020 this September.
The Snapdragon 865 Plus is Qualcomm’s latest flagship processor. The San Diego-based is expected to announce a Snapdragon 875 processor at the end of the year which will power the flagships of 2021. Now, a new leak says we may be getting a new Snapdragon 800 series chipset but one that should be less powerful than the Snapdragon 865.
According to a post on Weibo by Digital Chat Station, details from an OPPO meeting included the mention of a new processor called the Snapdragon 860. He adds that the chipset should be a lite version of the Snapdragon 875 (or Snapdragon 875G?).
We don’t have enough details on this new chipset yet but if it is already being discussed by manufacturers, then it is most likely on the way.
We believe the launch of the Snapdragon 860 will bring chaos to the Snapdragon 800 series. Only a handful of manufacturers launch phones with the previous year’s chipsets. So adding a Snapdragon 860 to the mix will mean having to choose between it, the Snapdragon 865, and the Snapdragon 865 Plus.
Oukitel is all set to launch its latest entry-level smartphone – Oukitel C21 on August 11. The smartphone has already leaked via multiple rumours and leaks.

The size of the OTA update varies for different regions but comes under 400MB. Since it brings bug fixes, if you own the handset, do make sure to download and install it. Also, the update is being rolled out in batches and therefore, it may take time to reach every unit.
Having said that, if you are interested in trying Android 11 on your POCO F2 Pro, that is possible too as this device is part of Beta Program.
The Realme C-series is a bit confusing following the introduction of the Realme C11 and Realme C15; two phones with numerically higher numbers but that are not as powerful as the Realme C3. Talking about the Realme C3, the new phone has gotten a new color variant today.
Originally announced in two colors – Frozen Blue and Blazing Red, the Realme C3 is now available in Volcano Gray. The new color variant was unveiled on Twitter by Madhav Sheth, the CEO of Realme.
The new color variant is already listed on the Realme India online store, but like the other colorways, you have to sign up to be notified when it is available for purchase. There is no info on offline availability.
The Realme C3 has a 6.5-inch HD+ display with a waterdrop notch for a 5MP camera. It is powered by the Helio G70 processor with up to 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. On the back of the phone is a 12MP+2MP dual-camera configuration. The phone has a triple card slot that includes space for a MicroSD card.

This year has to a large extent been defined by the COVID 19 pandemic which has affected almost all countries except a few. In the wake of the pandemic, the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2020 was cancelled at the last minute. As restrictions get eased, there are indications that the IFA Berlin 2020 will be a physical event.
Huawei’s Honor brand has now announced an event for IFA 2020 which is scheduled to take place from September 3 to September 5. This is billed to be a physical event. The teaser poster for the conference shows the theme of the presentation will be “Expand Your Smart Life”. The products that are expected to be released include a smartphone, laptop, router, smartwatch, and tablets.
Apart from Honor, other companies expected to take part in this year’s IFA Berlin trade show includes Realme, LG, TCL, and Huawei. It is unlikely that the show will be as elaborate as it used to be considering the health situation and the travel restrictions. Most companies are likely to stick to local announcements instead of global unveilings. The opening keynote will be hosted by Qualcomm where we might hear more on the chip company’s roadmap for Q4.

Photos posted on Twitter by a user that goes by @TEQHNIKACROSS show the Galaxy Note20 in Blue, Red, and Pink. The images appear to have been taken in a Samsung store in South Korea.
It is not unusual for Samsung to have its flagships available in more colors than originally announced. However, some of these colorways are usually exclusive to certain markets and or carriers.
German leaker and tech blogger, Roland Quandt (@rquandt) also shared a tweet that includes images of the red Galaxy Note20. According to him, the color variant was teased by Korea Telecom. He also stated that the blue one is coming to SK Telecom, which is another South Korean carrier.
There is no info yet on if any of these colorways will be available in other countries. If you like these new color variants and don’t mind waiting, you may hold off pre-ordering the device.
