Xiaomi’s Redmi brand took the wraps off the premium mid-range Redmi Note 8 Pro in China yesterday. The device was launched alongside the Redmi Note 8 but there is no dispute that the Redmi Note 8 Pro holds the ace.

In terms of the design, the build quality, hardware configuration and more, the Note 8 Pro promises to be a top-seller. The demand is expected to hit the roof and that may be why Redmi’s GM Lu Weibing hinted during the launch that the device will not be launched in India any time soon. Fans in India will have to wait for the next 2-3 months before the device will be launched over there. While we wait, here are a couple of hands-on/unboxing pictures of the Redmi Note 8 Pro in all its glory.

To recall, the Redmi Note 8 Pro sports a 6.53-inch IPS LCD display with full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels and 91.4% screen-to-body ratio. The screen has the waterdrop notch design where the 20MP selfie camera is housed. The phone also comes with an IP52 splash resistant body and TUV Rheinland certification for the display meaning it filters harmful blue rays. The device is wrapped with Gorilla Glass 5 panels at the front and rear.

The premium model is powered by a MediaTek Helio G90T processor paired with 6GB/8GB RAM. The handset comes in 64GB and 128GB storage options. There is equally a dedicated microSD card slot for expansion.

For photography, the Redmi Note 8 Pro packs a quad-camera setup at the back. The cameras are stacked vertically with three sensors and the rear fingerprint sensor in one module while the fourth sensor is at the right side in the same plane with the LED flash. The quad-camera setup includes an f/1.7 aperture 64MP ISOCELL Bright GW1 as a primary lens, an ultrawide lens of 8MP, a 2MP macro lens with 2cm focal length and a depth sensor of 2MP. The mains lens that has a large pixel size of 1.6micron can capture high-resolution images of 9248 x 6936 pixels. The Note 8 Pro can shoot 960fps slow-motion videos.

The device gets its power from a 4,500mAh battery that carries support for 18W fast charging. The Note 8 Pro also comes with liquid cooling technology which can be found in popular gaming smartphones. The antennas of the phone are arranged smartly inside the phone so that it does not obstruct signals while holding the device in landscape mode while playing games.

How to reduce eye strain while using smartphone?

Aug 30, 2019

Smartphones are getting bigger with the display covering almost entire front portion. Displays on the latest smartphones are vibrant, accurate, and beautiful longing us to spend more time in front of it. Nonetheless, we’re ignoring the fact about how much strain we impart to our gifted eyes. Since the smartphone has become inevitable in our daily life, it won’t be viable to say no to smartphones. However, there are some steps which you may follow to keep your eyes happy while viewing.

Here, we’ll go through certain ways by which strain on eyes can be reduced while using smartphones. As a quick disclaimer, by following the below-given habits or actions, it doesn’t mean you can keep yourself in front of a smartphone for eternity or like that. Anything in excess is poisonous, and the mantra should be in our mind always.

That being said, let’s dig into some healthy habits and changes that we could adopt or do for the betterment of our eyes.

Ways to Reduce Eye Strain

1. Hold your smartphone at a distance

The human eye is a marvel of nature. With a range from nearly 1cm and to infinity, it enables us to see this beautiful but challenging world. Although we can perceive an object close to our eyes, there is a term called Near the point of the human eye. It is the minimum distance, at which objects can be seen most distinctly without any strain. Near point of the human eye is normally 25cm.

So, as we know for a human to perceive an object clearly it should be kept at a distance of at least 25cm away from the eye. It holds good in the case of smartphone viewing as well. While looking at your phone, don’t let the display to be so close to your eyes. To be precise, there should be at least 25cm gap between you and the smartphone so that you get a better view without hurting your eyes.

2. Keep the brightness level adequate

Well, human eye perception differs from person to person. So it’s useless to precisely determine a specific set of brightness level which may not hurt the eyes. We recommend our viewers to adjust the brightness in accordance with how your eye/pupil reacts. If you feel that beyond a certain level of brightness your eyes are taking the stress and struggling then lower the brightness down to 5-10% from the current level.

The above case applies to daylight when the ambient light changes quite often. At night time and in a pitch dark room, it’s recommended to keep the brightness low as possible.

3. Turn on Dark Mode or Bluelight filter if available.

Modern smartphones come with special features which should help our eyes to an extent. Lately, we’ve seen many manufacturers promoting Night Mode, Bluelight filter, and similar UI modes to help us read better in the night time and reduce eye strain. Make use of them quite often and whenever necessary.

4. Blink eyes frequently

Most of us are no less than a mannequin while using a smartphone. Our head is likely to turn into a rigid body with literally few or no noticeable motion. While being fully immersed in the smartphone we even forget to take a blink. There is nothing other than this which push the eyes to fatigue within no time.

Hence, whenever doing an essential job with the smartphone do take time time to blink eyes quite often. How much time it’d take for a blink, not even a second isn’t it?

5. Avoid smartphones in bed

We agree; it’s the most comfortable place and position for playing with smartphones. I, you and we all like to chat bedridden. But, the fact is we’re so reluctant of the well-being of eyes by doing so. Ophthalmologists strictly advise not to read even books while lying on the bed. When you read from a supine position, the eyes have to focus upwards, and this less-than-optimal angle can cause severe eye strain if you’re doing this for a prolonged period.

Also, avoid reading prone position it too is not suitable for our body as a whole and can result in neck/back pain. So avoid smartphone on bed altogether.

Apart from the above precautions, there do exists many which you can make a part of your life for better well-being, such as:

Cleanse your eyes with lukewarm water quite often.
Consume Vitamin-A rich foods and avoid junks
Practice eye exercises
Minimize glare and tweak your text size and contrast for your eye comfort
and much more little too big things which may help your eyes in the long run.

By following the above practices and making it a part of your life, you’re giving your eyes a fair chance to be healthy as long as you live. Indeed, we never realize the importance of a thing until we lose. We’re fortunate to have healthy eyes, which is invaluable. The ball is now in our court, and it’s our responsibility to make use of it wisely. Stay safe and stay healthy.

Aug 30, 2019

Chinese phone manufacturer known for its gaming line up Nubia has released a poster that points to the launch of a new gaming phone scheduled for September 5. The phone is the Nubia Red Magic 3S gaming mobile phone.

Little is known about the device as the launch poster did not reveal much. But before now, the Red Magic 3S had earlier been tipped to launch in September. The device was also tipped to feature Qualcomm’s best chipset onboard.

EDITOR’S PICK: Samsung Galaxy Fold to launch on September 6th in South Korea

The new teaser poster suggests it will come with an air cooling system. There is no doubt that the Nubia Red Magic 3S is an offshoot of the Red Magic 3. Thus, the device is expected to continue with the heat dissipation design of the Red Magic 3. The Magic 3 features the industry’s first cooling fan inside which doesn’t use any physical bearings and is made out of nanomaterials. The company says that the fan runs at 14K RPM and consumes very little power. It is supported by a liquid-cooled copper tube to keep the temperature inside cooler.

In terms of specifications, the Nubia Red Magic 3S is expected to pack a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ chipset which is an upgrade of the SD855. The Snapdragon 855+ chipset upgrades the CPU (2.96GHz clock speed vs 2.84GHz on SD855) and GPU (15% faster) while retaining most of the features of the original SD855. So Nubia is looking to take advantage of the increased performance of the new gaming-centric processor on its new model. The device is also expected to pack a large-capacity battery, possibly retain the 5000mAh capacity on the Red Magic 3.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro global release likely to be delayed

Aug 30, 2019

Ever since the US trade ban, Huawei’s global sales have taken a hit. The company’s market share and shipments in Europe have declined and it looks like its global prospects are still uncertain. The temporary license that was granted to the company back in May has been extended. But considering how it applies to only existing products, the brand’s new models like Huawei Mate 30 series are going to be affected by this trade ban.

Huawei Mate 30 Pro featured — Mate 30 Pro’s expected design

The Mate 30 series is the first major flagship lineup from Huawei after the trade ban came into effect in May. The phone is set to take on the likes of the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ and the upcoming iPhones with a powerful camera setup and a waterfall display. However, the phone’s global prospects look dim as South China Morning Post reports that Huawei could delay the global release of the handset due to the trade ban.

While Huawei has been scrambling to stabilize its supply chain with non-US based replacements, the software is one area where there aren’t any viable replacements. Essentially, Android is an open-source platform, so the Mate 30 series could use an unlicensed version of the OS. However, without Google Services onboard, which has become a very important aspect of Android for international users, global sales are definitely going to take a hit.

Editor’s Pick: Google hints Huawei Mate 30 series isn’t licensed to use official Android

Even if Huawei decides to use its self-developed HarmonyOS, that still doesn’t solve the issue of the lack of Google Apps. So for now, HarmonyOS doesn’t look like a viable solution to the problem. If we don’t see a change in the current situation between the US and China, Huawei will have to be prepared to take a significant hit in its overseas sales.

Huawei-Mate-20-x-5g-leaked-image — Mate 20 X 5G recent went on sale in china

It could offset some loss with a more aggressive China strategy. In fact, a recent Canalys report indicates that nearly 64 percent of Huawei’s global sales were from China in Q2 2019! We could see this figure further go up very soon as Huawei aims to grab nearly 50 percent of the market share in China by the end of this year, up from 38% right now.

Aug 30, 2019

Samsung Galaxy Fold is one of the much anticipated smartphone to have launched this year. Even though the phone was unveiled earlier this year, the phone’s launch has been delayed multiple times due to design and build quality issues.

However, the company recently confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy Fold, the company’s first foldable smartphone, will go on sale from September this year, but the South Korean giant had not revealed the exact dates.

Now, a new report claims that the smartphone will be launched in South Korea on 6th September. As per the report, the company was planning to launch the Galaxy Fold in late September but for some reason, it has decided to launch in early September.

Interestingly, IFA 2019 in Berlin is also kicking-off from 6th September so there’s a possibility that Samsung could use that stage to re-launch its Galaxy Fold smartphone and talk about the changes in detail.

As for the rest of the world, it’s being said that Samsung will release the Galaxy Fold in other countries later next month. Exact dates for the U.S., the UK, Canada, and other countries is still unknown, but we hope to learn more about it pretty soon. Earlier this week, Samsung China had started taking pre-registration for the Galaxy Fold smartphone on its website.

Samsung has already confirmed that it made several important changes to the phone’s design addressing the flaws in the original product. Further, it added that the phone was put through ‘rigorous tests’ to validate this new design.

Coming to the specifications, the Samsung Galaxy Fold smartphone presents a 7.3-inch Infinity Flex Display with a 1536 x 2152 pixels screen resolution. In this mode, you can use three apps at the same time which Samsung calls Three-app Multitasking.

When folded into phone mode, it offers a 4.6-inch display with 840 x 1960 pixels screen resolution. It comes with a feature called App Continuity which automatically adjust an app when you switch screens. It is powered by a 7nm processor paired with 12GB of RAM and packs 512GB of internal storage using UFS 3.0 technology.

The phone comes with a camera module that’s made up of a 16MP ultra-wide camera, a 12MP telephoto camera, and another 12MP wide-angle camera. On the front side, it comes with a 10MP sensor. It runs the latest Samsung One UI with Android 9 Pie operating system out-of-the-box. The phone packs a 4,380mAh battery which is split into two units.

The Samsung Galaxy Fold retains the same price tag as before, $1980. Since the company has started pre-registrations for the same, the launch of Samsung’s first foldable smartphone should be just days away.
