The Redmi 10X series is powered by a 4,520mAh battery but the standard model supports 22.5W fast charging whereas the Pro model comes with support for 33W fast charging.
A recent leak has revealed certain interesting features which the upcoming Xiaomi Mi Band 5 will arrive with. The popular smart wearables will be the latest entry in its Mi Band series and have been jointly developed by Huami and Xiaomi.
The Mi Band 5’s announcement is expected to be just around the corner. However, it seems a few of its features and faces have already been leaked. Looking at the images that have surfaced online, we can observe that certain practical functionalities are being added to the Mi Band 5 along with activity trackers. The wearables will reportedly support camera controls, which is likely in the form of taking images videos and more.
Leaked images also depict various activity tracking modes like running, cycling, skipping, swimming, and more. Furthermore, certain new modes include yoga and indoor cycling as well. In other words, a total of 11 different activity tracking modes will be available. The leak also reveals the new faces on the 1.2 inch display (an increase from last gen’s .095 inch).
These include new analog clock faces and a single button built into the display. Other leaked specs include NFC support for connectivity, Amazon Alexa smart voice assistant, and a confirmed overseas model for the global market. Unfortunately, these are still leaks so take these specs with a grain of salt. We will keep you updated on the Mi Band 5 launch, so stay tuned.
Samsung has officially unwrapped its next mid-range SoC called Exynos 880 with integrated 5G modem. Vivo Y70s, the first phone with this chip is already official in China with a starting price tag of 1,998 Yuan ($280).
The new 8nm Exynos 880 is targeted at offering 5G connectivity at an affordable price. The modem in this SoC is capable of supporting sub-6GHz 5G with a maximum downlink and uplink of 2.55Gbps and 1.28Gbps respectively.
Further, it also supports E-UTRA-NR Dual Connectivity that combines 5G and 4G to offer boosted 3.55Gbps downlink and 1.38Gbps uplink. It is also capable of offering up to 1Gbps downlink on LTE.
As for processing, the Exynos 880 features an octa-core CPU which includes 2 x 2.0GHz Cortex-A77 cores and 6 x 1.8GHz Cortex-A55 cores. The graphics, on the other hand, are handled by Mali-G76 MP5 GPU. The SoC also features a dedicated NPU for on-device AI processing.
Talking about cameras, this chip can support a single camera up to 64MP or dual 20MP cameras. Also, it supports 4K video recording at 30fps with HEVC(H.265), H.264, VP9 encoding and decoding.

We can expect the future mid-range Samsung Galaxy A series 5G handsets to feature the newly announced Exynos 880 SoC at their helm.
After Huawei had its chip supply from TSMC cut off, the Chinese company had started looking into multiple alternatives. One such alternative was the known chipmaker MediaTek, which would supply the smartphone maker with 5G chips. But it seems the deal isn’t exactly set in stone as MediaTek has yet to promise chip supply to Huawei.
According to a new report, MediaTek hasn’t confirmed the increased chip supply order, keeping the current situation in mind. In view of the recent sanctions by the US Government and the related human resource investment the chipmaker would have to make for Huawei, it seems that the deal has not been confirmed. At the moment, MediaTek has declined to comment on this situation or the rumors.
A few sources close to the industry also pointed out that Huawei had already received 5G base stations and mobile processor 5nm chips from TSMC, even before the US sanctions had been proposed. In other words, the Chinese tech giant has a sufficient stock for now, which should also aid in development for the next two years. Thus, the short term business opportunities for others in the mobile chip business, like MediaTek, is relatively low.
Furthermore, the recent policies being enforced by the US may also hinder the supply of chip giants like Qualcomm and MediaTek, both of which are known suppliers of 5G enabled mobile processors. Notably, another major concern the industry faces is that while the new regulations do not impact the chipmakers directly, they may soon hinder their 5G operations if they function against the best interest of the US government.
A few days ago, Huawei-backed Honor launched the Honor X10 5G smartphone in China and today the smartphone went on sale for the first time. Now, hours after the sale, the company has announced that it sold over 100,000 units of the Honor X10 5G in the first sale within just eight minutes.
The Honor X10 5G has been launched in three variants — 6GB RAM + 64GB storage, 6GB RAM + 128GB storage and 8GB RAM + 128GB storage. They are priced at 1,899 Yuan (~$266), 2,199 Yuan (~$308) and 2,399 Yuan (~$336) respectively. It comes in three color options — Probing Black, Racing Blue, and Lightspeed Silver.
The smartphone comes with a 6.63-inch IPS LCD display with notch-less design, 90Hz refresh rate, 180Hz touch sampling rate, and 20:9 aspect ratio display. Under the hood, the device is powered by Kirin 820 5G SoC which supports nine 5G bands such as n41, n78, n79, n1, n77, n38, n80 and n84.
In the camera department, the phone has a Sony IMX600y 40-megapixel RYYB as a primary sensor, coupled with an 8-megapixel ultrawide shooter and a 2-megapixel depth assist lens. On the front side, it comes with a 16-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling.

After launching the OPPO Ace2 flagship smartphone in China, the company is now all set to launch yet another major offering in its home market — OPPO Reno4 series. The company had recently confirmed the same through a short video teaser.
Now, the company has officially shared renders of the upcoming Reno4 series smartphones which is expected to have at least two models — OPPO Reno4 and Reno4 Pro. In another teaser, the company has confirmed that the device will come with an ultra-thin body and a new touch experience.
From what the company has showcased so far, the phone has a curved glass back which has large-sized Reno Glow written. There’s volume rocker keys on the left side of the phone while the power button is on the right side.
Interestingly, none of the teaser images or video shared by the company showcases the front panel of the display. It seems that the company is holding up for the big reveal of the so-called “new touch experience” that it is teasing to offer with the Reno4 series.
The renders have confirmed that the smartphone will come with a triple-camera setup on the back, along with an LED flash and a Laser focus support. It has already been confirmed that the smartphones will come with 5G support.
While OPPO is yet to reveal the phone’s specifications, leaks have already surfaced online which claim that the Reno4 will come with a dual punch-hole cutout on its 6.43-inch 2.5D curved display for 32MP + 2MP sensors. On the other hand, the Pro variant will have a 6.55-inch display with 3D curved glass and a single front-facing camera of 32MP.
The standard variant of the phone is expected to have a 48-megapixel primary sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, and a 2-megapixel monochrome lens. On the other hand, the Pro variant is said to have OIS-enabled 48-megapixel camera, a 12-megapixel Night Scene video camera, and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens.
Both the smartphones are expected to come powered Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 765G chipset and drive power from a 4,000mAh battery. The OPPO Reno4 Pro is said to have support for 65W fast charging technology. We are expecting up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage on the devices.
The OPPO Reno4 is expected to arrive in Crystal Diamond Blue, Dream Mirror Black and Purple Taro colors while the Pro model is expected to come in Crystal Diamond Blue, Crystal Diamond Red, Dream Mirror Black, and Titanium Black colors. We expect to get the launch date of the devices in the coming days.

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. The Chinese tech giant has now launched the Mi TV Pro 32″ (E32S) with the model number L32M6-ES.
