Also, China is expected to receive the Mi 9 Pro in Dream White and Titanium Black colors.

Earlier this month, Huawei launched its latest flagship smartphones which are called the Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro. Even though both the handsets run on Android operating system, they will lack support for Google apps like the Play Store. For readers who are unaware, this step is a result of the ongoing trade tensions between the US and China that has forced Google to cut ties with Huawei.
While the two devices are packed with impressive features, the absence of Google services could hamper their sales. At the time of launch, Huawei CEO, Richard Yu confirmed that the company will allow users to unlock the bootloader on Mate 30 duo which could simplify the process of manually installing Google Play store and flashing custom ROMs.
Shockingly, a Huawei spokesperson has reached out to Android Authority and stated that the company has no plans to ‘unlock the bootloader’ on Mate 30 lineup that is contrary to the senior official’s original statement. For reference, the original statement has been listed below.
“We limited [bootloader unlocking] because we wanted to guarantee more security for consumers. But this time we will leave more freedom for the consumers so they can do more customization by themselves. So we are planning to let consumers do that.”
While the latest development sounds upsetting and it could dissuade potential customer’s away from the Mate 30 smartphone, Huawei might have an alternate trick up its sleeve for which will have to wait patiently. Besides, users who plan to buy these handsets have the option to download apps from Huawei AppGallery which offers a considerable selection of popular apps.
Conclusively, the Mate 30 lineup offers exceptional features but the absence Google services will remain to be a thorn in its flesh. What are your thoughts on Huawei’s decision on barring users from unlocking the bootloader on Mate 30 smartphones? Do let us know in the comments below.
OPPO seems to be gearing up to launch couple of new phones in China. On Oct. 10, it will be debuting the OPPO Reno Ace flagship smartphone. The entire specs of the phone have appeared on TENAA. A mysterious phone with model number PCKM80 has been spotted on. The specifications of the phone matches with Reno2 Z that was announced in India at the end of the previous month. Hence, it appears that the Chinese firm could be gearing up to launch the Reno2 Z phone in China.
The glass back of the OPPO PCKM80 features a vertical quad camera system that is coupled with a dual LED flash. The front side of the phone is mainly occupied by its notch-less screen. The left edge of the phone has volume buttons and a power button can be seen on the right side.

The smartphone is powered by 2.2 GHz octa-core processor along with 8 GB of RAM. The Android 9 Pie OS runs on the device. When it comes to storage, it offers a native capacity of 128 GB and also carries support for microSD card.
The smartphone could be featuring a pop-up selfie camera system for its 16-megapixel front lens. The rear shell of the phone is fitted with a 48-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 2-megapixel + 2-megapixel. The handset has a 3,920mAh minimum capacity battery that carries support for fast charging. The typical capacity of the phone could be 4,000mAh. It is loaded with Android 9 Pie OS.
The Reno2 Z that is available in India is fueled by the MediaTek Helio P90 chipset. Also, it carries support for 20W VOOC Flash Charge technology. In India, it is available in Sky White and Luminous Black color variants. OPPO India is yet to confirm the pricing of the Reno2 F. There is no leak on the pricing of the Reno2 F for Chinese markets. Probably, the company may announce it alongside the Reno Ace smartphone on Oct. 10.
OPPO-backed budget smartphone maker Realme has already confirmed that the Realme X2 smartphone will be launched in China at an event on 24th September. While the phone was expected to be the re-branded version of the Realme XT recently launched in India, it’s pretty evident that’s not the case.
Instead, it seems like the Realme X2 is a rebranded version of the Realme XT 730G smartphone teased by the company’s CEO Madhav Sheth which is slated to go official in India this December.
Now, just a day before the official launch of X2 smartphone, Realme’s Chief Marketing Officer Xu Qi Chase has revealed the key specifications of the device. He confirms that the phone will come powered by Snapdragon 730G chipset and will have LPDDR4X RAM as well as UFS 2.1 internal storage.
He has also confirmed 64MP quad-camera setup on the back and a 32MP front-facing snapper. The phone will be powered by a 4,000mAh battery with 30W VOOC 4.0 fast charging support. It will also support NFC, in-display fingerprint sensor, Dolby sound, etc.
The display is expected to be the same as the XT, featuring a 6.4-inch S-AMOLED Full HD+ display with 2340 x 1080 pixels screen resolution, and 19.5:9 aspect ratio. It will be offering 91.9 percent screen-to-body ratio. While Xu Qi Chase has suggested 6GB + 64GB model, we also expect 8GB + 128GB variant.
The quad camera system on the phone will consist of 64-megapixel Samsung GW1 primary camera sensor, an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 2-megapixel dedicated macro camera and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. The smartphone will be running Android 9 Pie operating system out-of-the-box with ColorOS on top. Do note that most of these specifications were already confirmed by the company through various teasers.
Realme, which made its debut last year in India has seen a tremendous growth in the country but the company is now also focusing on its home market China where it started operations earlier this year. While most smartphones from the company gets first launched in India, some important devices are debuting in China first.
Realme X was first made official in the Chinese market and now the Realme X2, which seems to be the re-branded Realme XT 730G is getting launched in China, month before its India launch this December.
Xiaomi has scheduled an event on 24th September where the company will be launching a few products, including the Mi MIX Alpha and Mi 9 Pro 5G smartphones, MI TV Pro 8K as well as the latest MIUI 11.
The company had recently shared a teaser image of the upcoming Mi MIX series smartphone which speculated reports about it being a foldable smartphone, which isn’t actually the case. Instead, it seems that the phone has usually curved display around the edges, similar to the waterfall design.
Now, Xiaomi has shared a new teaser on Weibo which confirms one major feature of the smartphone that’s been rumored — 100-megapixel camera sensor. The company said that currently 64-megapixel is the highest camera sensor for the smartphones which will now be replaced with the upcoming Mi MIX Alpha having 100-megapixel sensor.
The smartphone will come equipped with the Samsung ISOCELL Bright HMX camera sensor that supports 108MP resolution. This will be second such partnership between Samsung and Xiaomi after both the companies recently came together for Xiaomi’s 64MP smartphone — Redmi Note 8 Pro that incorporates Samsung’s 64MP ISOCELL GW1 sensor.
The company has also shared a photo taken using the Mi MIX Alpha smartphone, which has a resolution of 12032 x 9024 pixels and the file is about 40MB in size. It also claims that even when the photo is zoomed eight times, the details are retained and the image remains clear.
Previously leaked information related to the Mi MIX Alpha reveals that the phone will come with a 2K display and 90Hz refresh rate. The device will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus octa-core processor with up to 12GB of RAM and 1TB of internal storage.
We are expecting the smartphone to come powered by MIUI 11 operating system based on the latest Android 10. To know more about it, including its variants, pricing and availability, we’ll have to wait for the official launch event on 24th September.
After teasing the Oppo Reno Ace flagship smartphone earlier this month, the company has confirmed that the device will get launched in its home market China on 10th October. Now, ahead of the launch, Oppo has shared a promotional poster of the smartphone that reveals its design as well as some of the key specifications.
The promotional poster shows that the Oppo Reno Ace will come in two color options — Blue and Green, both having gradient effect. On the front side, there’s a waterdrop notch on top of the display that houses the front-facing camera sensor.
On the back side, the quad-camera setup is placed in the top-center position where the sensors are aligned vertically. Further, the poster reveals that the smartphone will come with a display with 90Hz refresh rate.
It also confirms that the smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Plus octa-core processor. The company had already revealed that the phone will come powered by a 65W SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging technology, much higher than what the competition is currently offering.
The smartphone was recently spotted on TENAA, which revealed almost all the specifications. The Oppo Reno Ace features a 6.5-inch AMOLED display with 2400 x 1080 pixels screen resolution and packs up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage.
Coming to the camera department, the quad-camera setup on the back consists of a 48MP primary camera, a 13MP periscope zoom lens, an 8MP ultra-wide angle camera, and a 2MP sensor. On the front side, the smartphone comes with a 16MP snapper for taking selfies.

To know more about the smartphone, including different variants, pricing, and availability details, we’ll have to wait for the company to officially launched the Oppo Reno Ace smartphone in China on 10th October.
Vivo will be announcing the Vivo U10 smartphone in India tomorrow. It is speculated that the smartphone will be also releasing in China in the near future. A new leak has revealed the pricing of the three variants of the Vivo U10 phone.
Citing information received from trusted sources, 91mobiles has reported that China will be receiving the Vivo U10 in three models such as 3 GB RAM + 32 GB storage, 3 GB RAM + 64 GB storage and 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage. These models are expected to arrive with respective price tags of 799 Yuan (~$112), 899 Yuan (~$126) and 999 Yuan (~$140) in the home market. The publication has also carried a render of the phone that reveals that the U10 will be equipped with a waterdrop notch enabled display and a rear-mounted triple camera system.
In India too, the Vivo U10 is expected to release in the same variants as mentioned. However, there is no information available on the exact pricing of the three models of Vivo U10 for India. A recent leak had claimed that Vivo U10 could be priced under Rs. 12,000 (~$168) in India.
The above shown image resembles with the TENAA images of the Vivo V1928A/T smartphone. Hence, it appears that the unreleased Vivo V1928A/T phone may hit the Chinese markets as Vivo U10 smartphone. It measures 159.43 x 76.77 x 8.92mmand it weighs 191.5 grams.
The handset has a 6.35-inch display that offer HD+ resolution of 720 x 1544 pixels resolution. It is powered by an octa-core processor that clocks at 2.0 GHz. Probably, it could be driven by the Snapdragon 665 mobile platform. TENAA listing states that the phone may arrive in 3 GB and 4 GB RAM models. It will come with a native storage of 32 GB.
The back panel of the phone has a 13-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera system. A fingerprint scanner is also found on the backside of the smartphone. There is a front-facing camera of 8-megapixel on the device. It has packed with a 5,000mAh battery.
In India, the Vivo U10 will be exclusively available through Amazon India. It is also confirmed to carry support for fast charging.
While some manufacturers are actively pushing wireless charging (Xiaomi is already working on 40W wireless charging technology) as the future of charging, there are other manufacturers like Vivo (and iQOO) whose latest NEX 3 5G smartphone skips the feature entirely and OnePlus whose soon-to-launch OnePlus 7T-series will support only Warp Charge 30T wired fast charging are yet to launch a device with support for wireless charging. Honor is another manufacturer that hasn’t jumped on the wireless charging train.
So for this week’s poll, we want to know if the lack of wireless charging can be a dealbreaker for you when purchasing a new phone or if it is a feature you don’t care much about.
Please, do vote and share the reason for your answer and any other opinion about wireless charging in the comment box.

The Mi 9 Pro 5G will be announced in a few days and Xiaomi isn’t keeping the phone’s features a secret. Today, it has revealed more details about the upcoming flagship.
Battery
The Xiaomi Mi 9 Pro 5G will pack a 4000mAh battery, a significant bump from the 3300mAh in the Mi 9. The increase in battery capacity is necessary since this is a 5G device and a 3300mAh battery will not suffice. Xiaomi says, even with the battery capacity, the Mi 9 Pro 5G isn’t heavy as it weighs 196 grams.
[envira-gallery id=”277672″]
Xiaomi also released a battery performance comparison sheet of the Mi 9 and the Mi 9 Pro 5G. The result shows the Mi 9 Pro 5G still has 21% battery left after 7 hours of use which include gaming, video and audio streaming, video recording, video calling, and car navigation.
The Mi 9 Pro 5G will support 40W wired charging and 30W wireless charging, so you can fill up the phone in the shortest time possible.
Audio
The official Xiaomi Weibo account also confirmed that the Mi 9 Pro 5G will come with a 1.04CC sound cavity, a 1217 super linear speaker, a smart PA, and support for Low Latency and High Definition Codec (LHDC) technology. All these should provide loud and impressive audio performance.
[envira-gallery id=”277676″]
HD Vibration (4D Shock)
The Mi 9 Pro will also have 4D shock or HD vibration. This should provide a more immersive experience when playing games. Xiaomi says HD Vibration supports up to 150 different vibration modes and has a user interface that adapts to different scenes.
NFC eID and Car Key
The Mi 9 Pro 5G will have NFC with support for eID which is required if you want to use the high-speed train, board a plane, or check into a hotel. It will also be able to work as your car key.
No 4G model, look to other “Xiaomi” phones
If you are expecting a 4G version of the Mi 9 Pro, Xiaomi’s co-founder and CEO, Lei Jun, announced on Weibo that all versions of the phone are 5G and there is no 4G version. Based on the post, we can infer that there will be other configurations available with less RAM and storage. He adds that those who want a 4G phone should consider other flagships such as the Mi 9, Redmi K20 Pro, or Black Shark 2.
Technically, the Mi MIX line is and may always be a concept line. It is a line Xiaomi uses to test out new designs and debut new technologies. Although, unlike other concept products, it usually becomes mass-produced and commercially available shortly after the announcement. This week, Xiaomi will announce its latest model for the series called the Mi MIX Alpha and below is all we know so far about the phone.
No Mi MIX 4, it’s the Mi MIX α (Alpha)
Rather than the Mi MIX 4, Xiaomi’s next MIX flagship will launch as the Mi MIX α. While Xiaomi says the switch to a new naming scheme is the beginning of a new era, we strongly believe the change from Arabic numerals to Greek alphabets is related to the ruling against Xiaomi’s use of the MIX name.
Design
The design of the Mi MIX Alpha has been a debate on the web. It was originally thought to sport a candy bar design with a display devoid of a notch and punch hole. This alleged front panel glass even hinted at it having a pop-up selfie camera. However, when teaser posters began to surface, it was believed to be a foldable phone since the flexible display appeared to fold outwards like the working prototype foldable phone Xiaomi showed off earlier this year. Sadly, Xiaomi’s CEO and co-founder, Lei Jun, revealed on Weibo yesterday that the Mi MIX Alpha is not a foldable phone.
While the design is still unknown, one thing that is certain is that it has a flexible display that curves even further than that of the Mate 30 Pro’s Horizon Display.
Another aspect of the phone’s design and which is related to the display is the front-facing camera. Yesterday, Xiaomi released a teaser poster with a caption asking which design they prefer for the front-facing camera. The poster mentioned the wide notch, the waterdrop notch, the pop-up selfie camera, and the punch-hole display designs. Some have interpreted the post to mean a tease for an under-display selfie camera. This isn’t far-fetched seeing as Xiaomi already has a patent for the technology.
Specs
The key specs of the Mi MIX Alpha are unknown for now. While there have been some leaks, only a few details are certain such as a Snapdragon 855 Plus processor, a 108MP camera sensor that will be able to shoot 100MP picture, wireless charging, and reverse wireless charging.
Conclusion

Xiaomi’s Mi 9 series is probably the largest in the history of the Mi series. In the first quarter of the year, Xiaomi launched the Mi 9, the Mi 9 Transparent Edition, and the Mi 9 SE. Then in June, it followed it up with the Mi 9T, and then Mi 9T Pro in August. Just last week it announced the Mi 9 Lite. However, Xiaomi is not yet done with the series as it will announce the Mi 9 Pro 5G at an event on September 24. Here is a summary of what we already know about the phone.
Design
The Mi 9 Pro 5G will retain the design of the Mi 9. It will have triple rear cameras arranged vertically and on the left side. On the front, the phone will also keep the 6.39-inch display and waterdrop notch of the Mi 9. However, the new member of the Mi 9 family will come in a new white color variant similar to the Mi A3’s More Than White variant.
New Features
The main upgrades are actually inside of the Mi 9 Pro 5G. First, it will come with the new Snapdragon 855 Plus processor. It will also come with 12GB of RAM like the Mi 9 Transparent Edition, but it will pack more storage – 512GB to exact.
The Mi 9 Pro 5G will have a 4000mAh battery capacity, bigger than that of the Mi 9. It will also support 40W wired charging, a significant bump from the 27W Mi Turbo Wired Charging that launched with the Mi 9. It has also been confirmed that it will have support for Wireless Charging but 30W this time. The Mi 9 Pro 5G will also support 10W reverse wireless charging. This is the same wireless charging speed of the Mi MIX 3 and a lot of other phones.
Another feature that has been confirmed is VLC liquid cooling which has a larger cooling area and is more efficient. Xiaomi also confirmed that the Mi 9 Pro 5G will have a transverse linear motor for better haptic feedback. There is a possibility it will be best that of its competitors including Meizu‘s new mEngine 3.0 present in its 16s Pro flagship.
Price
The price of the Mi 9 Pro 5G is still unknown but Xiaomi will want to price it competitively. The Vivo iQOO Pro 5G with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage is priced at ¥4498 (~$634). It has an 8GB + 128GB version priced at ¥3798 (~$535). If Xiaomi wants to beat the iQOO Pro, then it will have to price its Mi 9 Pro 5G at around the same price tag as the 12GB RAM iQOO Pro 5G. It will also have to release a variant with lesser RAM and storage that can compete with the base model of the iQOO Pro 5G.
Xiaomi‘s been slowly teasing brand new features for their upcoming MIUI 11 update. Just last week we saw the announcement of two features coming soon, those being the dedicated Children’s Space and Earthquake alert. Now we’ve got another feature to add to the list, that being Family Sharing.
If the name sounds familiar, then that’s because Xiaomi’s Family Sharing is almost exactly the same Apple’s Family Sharing for iOS. It serves the exact same purpose, which is being able to share information between your family members’ devices quickly and safely. The fact that it’s so similar to the iOS version is actually great considering how good it is there.
Interestingly, Xiaomi’s implementation of the feature is much more focused towards safety and parental control. Family Sharing on MIUI will let you track the location of family members at all times, control the amount of time a user can use an application, and even control WeChat usage. This paired with the upcoming Children’s Space should provide parents with all the tools they need to watch over their kids.
Perhaps the most interesting thing about Family Sharing however is how it works with any Android device or iPhone. This means only one person in your family actually needs to have a Xiaomi device, which is simply excellent to know. The worst part about iOS’ Family Sharing is the requirement that everyone have an iPhone or MacOS powered device. The fact that Xiaomi doesn’t force this on users makes the feature much more practical.
