Realme has joined the list of phone manufacturers that also make smart TVs. The Realme Smart TV which was announced in India yesterday comes in two sizes – 32-inches and 43-inches – and runs Android TV out of the box.
Realme has priced its first smart TV aggressively; going head to head with Xiaomi’s own Mi TV 4A Pro. The Mi TV 4A Pro can be considered its closest rival as their specs are similar and their price tags are the same (43-inch models).
For this week’s poll, we want to know which of the two smart TVs you prefer. So, take the poll below and also post a comment telling us why you prefer one over the other.
Another flagship killer went real: Realme officially announced the new Realme X50 Pro Player edition with a toned-down camera department and higher performance at a more affordable price. But are Realme’s latest efforts enough to guarantee the highest value for money to gamers and power users? In order to establish this, we decided to compare the new handset with other amazing flagship killers which hitten the shelves recently. We chose the Redmi K30 Pro (also known globally as the Poco F2 Pro) and the Realme X2 Pro since they are actually among the most affordable flagship killers out there and we saw several people wondering which is the best choice now that X50 Pro Player is official.

Design
Realme X2 Pro has the silly notch and, if you look at where the Realme logo is placed, you will probably understand that it is not the best design choice. Redmi K30 Pro looks very impressive with its notch-less and holeless display: it sports motorized pop-up cameras allowing it to get rid of holes in the display. But not everyone might like its rear side due to its big and round-shaped camera module. I like the rear side of the Realme X50 Pro Player a lot more and that is why it is my favorite one, but it has a dual punch-hole display. Does it meet your tastes or you prefer the Redmi K30 Pro?
Display
We exclude the Redmi K30 Pro from the display comparison, especially when it comes to gaming. It lacks the trendy feature of the moment: a high 90 Hz refresh rate. Realme X2 Pro and X50 Pro Player come with similar display specifications, including a 90 Hz refresh rate and the HDR10+ standard, as well as the Super AMOLED technology and a Full HD+ resolution. Unfortunately, we still do not have complete details about the display of the Realme X50 Pro Player Edition, so it is a draw with the X2 Pro.
Hardware/Software
Realme X2 Pro loses this comparison because it offers an older and less powerful chipset, as well as no 5G support. It is fueled by Snapdragon 855+ mobile platform which is still one of the best processors out there, but inferior to the Snapdragon 865 found on the Redmi K30 Pro and Realme X50 Pro Player. The most advanced version of the Realme X50 Pro Player offers potentially better performances due to its higher quantity of RAM (up to 12 GB) than Redmi K30 Pro, while Redmi K30 Pro has more internal storage (up to 256 GB). In each case, you get Android 10 out of the box and a custom UI.
Camera
Realme had to cut on the camera department of the Realme X50 Pro 5G in order to offer it at a very competitive price. Realme X2 Pro is the most interesting camera phone on the paper since it offers the best telephoto sensor and a good ultrawide lens. But Redmi K30 Pro is the only supporting 8K video recording and it offers better quality in some scenarios. While there are marginal differences between Realme X2 Pro and Redmi K30 Pro, you should definitely not go for the Realme X50 Pro Player if you are looking for the best camera phone.
Battery
With its bigger 4700 mAh battery and a standard refresh rate for the display, Redmi K30 Pro provides a longer battery life. Realme X50 Pro Player has the fastest charging technology: it goes from 0 to 100 percent in just 35 minutes with its 65W fast charging technology, and it can provide 1 hour of calls with just 3 minutes of charge. Realme X2 Pro is very close with its 50W fast charging and smaller battery, while Redmi K30 Pro is inferior with a slower charging (30W) and a bigger battery.
Price
Redmi K30 Pro’s base variant is priced 2,999 Yuan in China (roughly $420), just like the Realme X50 Pro Player. Realme X2 Pro begins at 2,699 Yuan ($378) but it is actually way cheaper thanks to street prices. Realme X2 Pro is more affordable, but it is not the winner of this comparison: it has inferior hardware, a smaller battery, and it lacks 5G. Realme X50 Pro Player has a faster charging tech, better display, and performances (at least in its most expensive variant), while Redmi K30 Pro offers a bigger battery and great cameras, but it lacks a high refresh rate. If you are a gamer, maybe Realme X50 Pro Player fits your needs a bit, but if you are more like a casual user, Redmi K30 Pro might look better. Which one would you pick?
Xiaomi silently launched the Mi TV 43″ (E43K) recently with an affordable 1099 yuan ($155) price tag in China.

On the other hand, the Buds Q is priced at 149 yuan (~$21) with a limited-time offer that brings down the price to 129 yuan (~$18).
The Realme Buds Q is slightly different from the Buds Air Neo. It uses an in-ear design and is available in black with yellow accents around it. It is a product designed by Jose Levy. This headset has a built-in 10mm bass booster unit with an ultra-low latency performance of 119ms. It has a single battery life of 4.5 hours but with the storage box, that can be bumped up to 20 hours. In addition, the Buds Q supports quick touch function and IPX4 waterproof protection.

The Redmi 10X is an upcoming 5G mid-range smartphone scheduled to launch in China tomorrow. The phone will be packing some pretty interesting specs such as an AMOLED display and a Dimensity 820 processor.
If you are wondering who the supplier for the display used in the phone is, then you are in the right place. It has been revealed that the display panel is a Samsung E2 AMOLED panel and this is the same type Xiaomi ships with the Mi 10 Youth 5G.
The screen measures 6.57-inches with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 and a waterdrop notch at the top for the selfie camera. There is HDR10+ support and the maximum brightness is 600 nits. So far, this is a pretty great display for the device.

Xiaomi’s Mi Bands are one of the popular budget fitness tracker series’ available in the market. The Mi Band 4 is about to be a year old in a few weeks from now. There have been multiple rumors and leaks of Mi Band 5 for the past few days. A new one has now popped up on Weibo but is it legit?
The existence of Mi Band 5 was confirmed by Huami’s CEO in the company’s earnings call for Q1 2020. For the unaware, Huami designs Mi Bands for Xiaomi, which is a long time investor in the fitness company.
1 of 2
Even before that, there were a couple of leaks but they were definitely fake so we did not feel right to cover them. Then, came a legit leak from TizenHelp with concrete proofs. This one revealed some of the interesting features of the Mi Band 5 such as SpO2 sensor (finally), Amazon Alexa, menstrual cycle tracking, and PAI.
But the live images (pictured above) shared by a tipster called C Technology on Weibo looks shady at first sight. In my eyes at least, I feel like this is a Mi Band 4 with a Mi Band 3 charger rather than a forthcoming Mi Band 5.
I have been wearing Mi Band 4 continuously on my wrist for 8 months and the images look exactly like it. Also, there seems to be no pogo pin receiver on the fitness tracker pictured above. How will this Mi Band 5 charge through the plastic casing?
In case you do not remember, the Mi Band 3 has a similar charger with pogo pin on the side since its receiver is on the side as well. On the other hand, the Mi Band’s 4 receiver is at the bottom and hence we could see not it in this so-called Mi Band 5 leak image.
Having said that, there’s still a possibility that the pixelated side part of the fitness tracker could be the pogo pin charging receiver. If this is true, then the upcoming Mi Band 5 will look exactly like the Mi Band 4 with functional differences.
Anyway, we hope Huami redesigns charger for the Mi Band 5 since the Mi Band 4’s charger does not house the tracker properly for most users. However, my unit came with a perfect charger which fits the fitness tracker snugly.
The Motorola RAZR is a foldable phone that was announced last year but didn’t go on sale until a few months ago. Its rival is the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip – a phone with a similar vertically folding design but with significantly better specs. Now, key specs of the Motorola RAZR 2 (not official name) have leaked and they show Motorola will still be playing catch-up with Samsung’s own phone.
XDA-Developers reports that an unnamed source has revealed some key details about the 2nd-gen Motorola RAZR. According to their source, the phone will go by the codename “smith” and will have the model number “XT2071-4”.
Last year’s Motorola RAZR packs a Snapdragon 710 processor. The 2-year old chip has appeared in several devices but none with a price tag of $1499 as that of the RAZR. For its successor, Motorola is once again not going with a flagship processor but the Snapdragon 765 (not Snapdragon 765G).
The Snapdragon 765 is a 5G processor found in mid-range and upper mid-range devices. It is a more powerful processor than the Snapdragon 710 and it will be paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. While it has a 5G modem built-in, it still can’t beat the Snapdragon 855+ inside the Galaxy Z Flip.
The source says the processor will draw power from a 2845mAh battery which is a boost in capacity when compared to the 2510mAh capacity of the Motorola RAZR (2019). However, this is still smaller than the 3300mAh battery inside Samsung’s own foldable phone.
The displays on both sides are said to be unchanged (for now) with respect to sizes but Motorola may adopt new technologies such as the use of UTG (Ultra Thin Glass) for the main screen.
With respect to cameras, the Motorola RAZR 2 will have a 48MP Samsung ISOCELL Bright GM1 sensor. Sorry, just a single camera again. The selfie camera has also been upgraded from 5MP to 20MP.
The phone will run Android 10 out of the box with Motorola’s own software additions. The Motorola RAZR 2 will launch in China and North America but should also launch in other markets such as India and Europe. Of course, it will have 5G support but XDA-Developers are skeptical it will support mmWave 5G networks due to the size of the antennas which take up space in devices.
There is a chance that the above specs may change before the launch of the phone which is expected to launch in September according to a Motorola executive. Nevertheless, Samsung seems to have the vertically-folding phone category under its belt as its phone offers better specs and a cheaper price tag.
Oppo dropped the first official teaser video of Reno 4 earlier today on Weibo. In addition to that, the handset already got leaked yesterday in a live image along with specifications. Now, the device also gets listed on TENAA certification portal as the launch is nearing.

The Reno 4 and Reno 4 Pro will come with two model numbers each. They are PDPM00 / PDPT00 and PDNM00 / PDNT00 respectively.
The former will measure and weigh 159.3×74.0×7.8mm and 183g, whereas the latter will have 159.6×72.5×7.6mm dimensions and 172g weight.
Both the handsets will have support for dual-mode (SA / NSA) 5G and are expected to be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G according to the previous leak. They will be available in 8GB + 128GB and 12GB + 256GB storage variants.

As for the screen, the standard Reno 4 will sport a 2.5D 6.4-inch FHD+ (2400 × 1080 pixels) AMOLED display. The Reno 4 Pro, on the other hand, will come equipped with a 6.5-inch curved display with the same resolution. However, both will have an under-display fingerprint sensor.
Talking about cameras, both the handsets will feature triple camera setup at the back but the configuration is slightly different. The Oppo Reno 4 will arrive with a 48MP primary sensor, 8MP ultra-wide shooter, and a 2MP monochrome portrait lens. Whereas, the Reno 4 Pro will include a 48MP primary shooter with OIS, 12MP dedicated low-light video camera and a 13MP telephoto unit.

Bizarrely, the Reno 4 will sport a dual punch-hole for 32MP + 2MP selfie cameras. But the Reno 4 Pro will only feature a single punch-hole for the same 32MP shooter.
Last but not least, the Reno 4 series will run ColorOS 7.1 based on Android 10 and will be backed by a 4,000 mAh battery with support for 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging technology.
The mobile phone industry has experienced a rapid change in several ways but one which stands out among the pack is the display bezels. OEMs have adopted various measures to trim down the bezels around the display screen in order to give an immersive viewing experience and improve aesthetics.
One component that has made maintaining the symmetry while trimming the bezels is the front camera. OEMs have used display notch, pop-up selfie camera design and lately, punch-hole design-style to ensure the camera takes less space. But one technology which is believed to be the perfect solution is the under-screen camera technology.
A number of OEMs have been reported to be working on such technology. Xiaomi was reported to have patented a smartphone with an under-screen camera. OPPO and Samsung have also reportedly got the technology under development. A Chinese tipster has now hinted that Huawei may beat all other brands to become the first to release a smartphone using the under-screen technology.
Under-screen display technology involves the use of a transparent glass around the camera area which has the characteristics of low reflection and high light transmission. When not taking pictures, the screen content can be displayed normally, and when taking pictures, it becomes transparent glass, so that the light enters to realize the self-timer. The under-screen camera has to work with other hardware flawlessly and image algorithms are needed to perfect the camera experience.
Previous reports tipped the under-screen technology to be mass-produced in the second half of this year. This is just in time for the Mate 40 series release. The technology might find its way first on Huawei’s upcoming Mate 40 series which should drop around October.

5G phones are about to become very affordable pretty soon according to new info from China. Last week, we reported that Qualcomm was working on its first Snapdragon 600 series 5G processor. A new leak has now revealed that the octa-core chipset with part number SM6350 will appear in a Redmi phone with a price tag under $150.
The source of the info is the Chinese leaker/blogger that goes by @Digital Chat Station on Weibo. He is the same source that revealed the specs of the SM6350 processor last week. In a new post today, he revealed Redmi is developing a 5G phone powered by the upcoming processor and will have a price tag within the ¥1000 (~$140) range.
A 5G phone that sells for under $150 is definitely good news for anyone that wants to jump on the new network radio without forking out a lot of cash. However, for that price, expect the same specs as you will find on a 4G phone under $200 such as an LCD display, a triple camera, or even a quad-camera setup with 2MP sensors, a 4000+mAh battery, and at least 18W fast charge.
There is still no news regarding when the chipset will launch but we won’t be surprised if its debut is on the same day the Xiaomi phone is announced. A number of Qualcomm chips have debuted on Xiaomi/Redmi devices even before the chipset was officially released. The Snapdragon 768G is the most recent example but won’t be the last.
