Apple is going to announce this year’s iPhone lineup on September 10th but that doesn’t mean that you have to wait until the new flagship hits the market. We already know that there will be 3 new iPhone models and maybe a new Apple Watch which all will come with wireless charging support, so let’s check out some interesting charging solutions from Choetech.
4 in 1 iPhone and Apple Watch Wireless Charging Dock (MFi Certified)
Apple finally canceled the release of its wireless pad but Choetech has something similar to offer. Designed with four charging areas, the wireless charging dock can charge up to 4 devices simultaneously. So, you can use it to charge your iPhone, Apple Watch, and Airpods simultaneously! of course, it is MFi-certified by Apple and ensures quality and safety. You can find it on Amazon.

In recent years, pricing of the premium flagship offerings from the likes of Apple and Samsung have been climbing up and have crossed the $1,000 mark. Along with the premium offering, Apple had launched the iPhone XR last year, keeping the company’s earlier price point of around $750.
Now, according to the report from the market analysts, the shipments of the Apple iPhone XR crossed the 30 million units mark making it the best-selling smartphone in the first half of this year.
While the iPhone XR certainy isn’t cheap being priced at $749, however, it’s the least expensive offering compared to the other iPhones launched last year — iPhone XS and XS Max. According to the IHS Market, 13.6 million iPhone XR units shipped in the first quarter and 13.3 million shipped in the second quarter — bringing the total to 26.9 million for the first half of the year.
The second best-selling smartphone for the H1 2019 is the Samsung Galaxy A10, which shipped almost half of the units compared to the iPhone XR. Commenting on this, Jusy Hong, Research and Analysis Director said:
“Compared to the Android-based smartphone makers, Apple maintains a relatively small model lineup. This means that Apple’s total sales volume is divided among fewer models. As a result, each of Apple’s iPhone models tends to generate higher shipment numbers than comparable Android smartphones, such as those sold by Samsung.”
The Samsung Galaxy A50, Apple iPhone 8, and Xiaomi Redmi 6A are ranked third, fourth, and fifth bestselling smartphone respectively. Other devices in the list include Redmi Note 7, Galaxy J2 Core, Oppo A5, iPhone XS Max, and the Galaxy A30.
In years past, Europe’s biggest electronics show, IFA 2019, was the place Huawei chose to unveil a new Mate, the biggest of its flagship phones. That’s not the case in 2019. We won’t see the Mate 30, the latest in the series, until Sept. 19, when it’s due to launch in Munich. Instead, Huawei has unveiled its next-generation silicon that will power its upcoming mobile products, the Kirin 990 chipset.
Built with a 7nm extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV) process, Huawei says its new integrated chip is smaller than Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 + X50 5G modem, allowing for more compact 5G smartphones. The Kirin 990 5G is also the world’s first mobile SoC with more than 10 billion transistors, making it more efficient with power consumption.
But perhaps the most exciting thing about the Kirin 990 is that it’s also the first full-frequency 5G SoC — it’ll support both non-standalone and standalone architectures as well as TDD/FDD full frequency bands. The Kirin 990 is a true unified design, supporting Sub-6 GHz 5G networks on both SA and NSA architectures. To date, neither Qualcomm, nor Samsung, (nor Apple), have a unified chip design, Huawei is the first.
The Kirin 990 5G is a 7nm octa-core chipset that has 10.3 billion transistors. It uses two big, two middle and four little cores to optimize multitasking, with clock speeds of 2.86GHz, 2.36GHz and 1.95GHz respectively. The 990 5G also packs a 16-core Mali G76 graphics processor which should offer plenty of power for mobile gaming, as well as smart cache built in to reduce bandwidth by up to 15 percent.
To aid with mobile photography, a new fifth-generation Dual ISP boasts DSLR-level hardware noise reduction and block-matching and 3D filtering. Huawei’s smartphone cameras already produce stunning low-light results, but it looks like that can be improved further. Dual-domain noise reduction will also be available for use on video production, as well as frame-by-frame AI color adjustments.
Aside from implementing the 5G modem, the biggest change in the Kirin 990 is going to be the NPU, or Neural Processing Unit. Boiled down to basics, it’s a coprocessor optimized for the sort of vector math that’s the lifeblood of machine learning frameworks like Facebook’s Caffe2 and Google’s TensorFlow.
Qualcomm’s AI Engine, Samsung’s own Neural Processing Unit, and Apple’s A12 Bionic achieve the same ends through different means, but Huawei claims its homegrown Da Vinci architecture — the evolution of the NPU in the Kirin 970 and 980, which were designed by Cambricon — is far and away the most capable.
There’s still a bit of worry within all this however. The Kirin 990 relies extensively on Arm’s chip designs for both its CPU and GPU elements. However, Huawei’s relationship with the British chip designer was thrown into disarray earlier this year when the US imposed sanctions on the Chinese company.
Huawei has a press event in Munich on the 19th of September, where we are expecting the Huawei Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro flagship phones to be announced – and likely a 5G model as well, which perhaps might be the Pro 5G only. We’re extremely eager to hear more and experience the Kirin 990, so hopefully we get to see its full potential when the time comes.
At the on-going IFA 2019 in Berlin, Asus announced the global launch of its latest gaming smartphone Asus ROG Phone II. Along with that, the Taiwanese company has also launched a new wearable device — Asus Vivowatch SP.
The Asus Vivowatch SP is a smartphone that comes with ECG capabilities and helps in tracking blood pressure and stress levels. The PPG Optical Sensors is placed at the back while the Medical-grade ECG sensors is on the side of the case.
While exact details about the display has not been revealed, the smartwatch uses a TFT Full-colour display with Gorilla Glass protection on top. It also has an anti-fingerprint coating to keep smudges off.
It also comes with GPS and an altimeter for more precise exercise data, which can be quite helpful especially when you are in areas with poor coverage. The device is also rated waterproof up to 5ATM (50 meters of depth).
There’s also Asus HealthAI support that should guide you based on your stats and habits. As per the company, this HealthAI platform has been developed with leading team of health experts.
The Asus Vivowatch SP comes with a ceramic bezel that reduces fingerprints and has support for changeable bands so that you can match it with your style. The company has also promised a non-stop battery life of 14-day but has not revealed the battery capacity.
At this time, the company has just unveiled this Vivowatch SP smartwatch and the device will get launched in the fourth quarter of this year, i.e. Q4 2019. The pricing and availability details of this device will be revealed when the official launch takes place.
Alongside the slew of new phones from Nokia, HMD Global also had a few other surprise announcements up their sleeves for IFA 2019. Say hello to the Nokia Power Earbuds, a pair of true wireless earbuds from the company that promise amazing battery life, water resistance and lightweight designs.
Each earbud packs 6mm graphene drivers. They’re Bluetooth 5.0 compatible and offer easy access to your phone’s voice assistant. On top of this, they’ve also got touch controls for your controlling music or volume. They’re even IPX7 rated and can survive in 1 m of water for up to 30 minutes, which is fairly important for a tiny pair of earbuds like these.
Each earbud packs 50 mAh battery and offers up to 5 hours of usage. The charging case comes with 3000mAh battery that Nokia claims can charge the buds 30 times in total, and each charge giving you around five hours of playback time. So all in all you get 150 hours of life from a single charge. It’s also really nice that the case uses USB-C for charging.
The Nokia Power Earbuds come in two colour options, those being Charcoal Black and Light Grey. They’re priced at €79 ($88) and will go on sale from October. We haven’t gotten an official sale date, or even a list of countries where the earbuds will go on sale, though we’re pretty sure it’ll come to most countries that offer Nokia devices.

The OnePlus TV is all set to get launched later this month in India. Ahead of the launch of this new product, the company has been revealed details about the Smart TV at regular intervals. Now, the company’s CEO Pete Lau has shared an image of the remote controller that will come with the OnePlus TV.
The OnePlus TV remote comes with USB Type-C port for charging and has regular Android navigation buttons. Interestingly, there’s also a dedicated Google Assistant button, a OnePlus button and another button which is completely blank. On the top part, it seems that there’s a touch pad of some sort.
On the right side of the remote, there’s a volume rocker key. At a first glance, the remote for the OnePlus TV looks quite similar to the Apple TV Siri remote. Design wise, the remote seems like a premium product, complimenting what the company has been teasing about its upcoming Smart TV since past few weeks.
From the listing of the TV on Amazon India, it has already been confirmed that the OnePlus TV will come with a 55-inch 4K QLED display with support for Dolby Vision, bringing extraordinary color, contrast, and brightness to the screen. It has also been revealed that the TV will have 8 speakers with 50W output which is powered by Dolby Atmos sound for cinematic experience.
Earlier, it was leaked that the device comes packed with 2GB of RAM and is powered by MediaTek MT5670 quad-core processor which is clocked at 1.5GHz, coupled with ARM Mali G51 graphics processor.
Pete Lau has already revealed that the OnePlus TV will come powered by Android TV and said that the company worked alongside Google to optimize the Android TV user experience. He has also promised to offer Android TV updates for at least 3 years.
The OnePlus TV will be first launched in the Indian market later this month because the company has already partnered with content providers. Nevertheless, it should be announced in Europe, USA and China in October.
Xiaomi has today announced that it will be holding an event in China on 9th September where the company is expected launch its new products. One of the product to launch at the event is Mi Charge Turbo.
The Mi Charge Turbo is a wireless charging technology designed for the 5G era, says the company. The product will reportedly provide an improved overall speed as well as will outline the future of the wireless charging technology, claims Xiaomi.
Currently, Xiaomi’s wireless flash charging technology maxes out at 20W while the wired charging peaks at 27W. Now, it seems that the company has closed down the gap and is all set to unveil new wireless charging for the 5G smartphones.
While the company had introduced the 20W wireless charging technology on its Mi 9 flagship smartphone, the same technology is yet to show up on another smartphone from the Chinese company.
It remains to be seen what speed the upcoming Mi Charge Turbo technology will support but it will definitely be faster than 20W. It’d be great if it surpasses Huawei’s 30W wireless charger which was certified by FCC last month and is expected to charge the upcoming Huawei Mate 30 Pro.
Offering faster charging technology for the 5G smartphones makes sense given that the technology drains out the battery more. We expect the company’s upcoming flagship smartphone — Mi MIX 4 to come powered by this new Mi Charge Turbo Wireless Charging.
Meanwhile, the Chinese company has also scheduled a launch event in India on 17th September where it is expected to unveil multiple products in its smart home range.
