With the official launch of Android Q getting closer, more manufacturers are already developing beta versions for their devices so that they can roll out an update in time. Today, ZTE has announced that the Axon 10 Pro will soon get a beta version of Android Q.
The Axon 10 Pro in China runs MiFavor UI – a custom version of Android, while the international version runs a near stock version of Android. The announcement was made on Weibo in form of a teaser poster shared by the official Mi Favor account.
The poster has a QR code at the bottom corner. Those interested in testing the new beta version are required to scan the code and apply to join the program.
There is no info on when a beta version of Android Q will be available for the global version though it did say it hopes to update the phone to Android Q and Android R.

There is a Snapdragon 855 processor under the hood paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It has a MicroSD card slot for storage expansion. It also uses the F2FS file system format and is the first Snapdragon 855-powered phone to do so.
The display has a notch that is home to a 20MP sensor while the back houses a 48MP f/1.7 primary camera, an 8MP telephoto camera, and a 20MP ultra-wide angle camera. The Axon 10 Pro doesn’t have an audio jack like its closest competitor, the OnePlus 7 duo but it has stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos. Other features are a 4000mAh battery with support for Quick Charge 4+ and wireless charging, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and a USB Type-C port.

In February, Samsung had launched the Galaxy A50 mid-range smartphone. The handset is available with a price tag of 349 euros in European markets. In the first half of 2019, Samsung has launched Galaxy A10, A20, A30, A40, A50, A60, A70 and A80 smartphones. Recent reports have revealed that the South Korean company will be releasing new versions of the A-series in the latter half of 2019. A new Samsung phone with model number SM-A507FN is rumored to be in works. It is speculated to debut in the market as Galaxy A50s. The arrival of the phone seems to be close at hand as it has been spotted on Geekbench and AnTuTu benchmarking platforms. Different variants of the rumored Galaxy A50s has also received approval from Wi-Fi Alliance body.
Alleged Galaxy A50s on Geekbench and AnTuTu
On Geekbench, the SM-A507FN has scored 1685 in single-core test and 5446 in multi-core test. The handset is loaded with Android 9 Pie OS. The Exynos 9610 chipset that includes a 1.57 GHz octa-core processor fuels the smartphone. It comes with up to 4 GB of RAM.
The AnTuTu listing of the SM-A507FN also confirms that it is fueled by Exynos 9610 chipset, 4 GB of RAM and Android 9 Pie OS. The size of the display of the phone is not mentioned on AnTuTu. It carries support for full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. The handset has an internal storage of 64 GB. It has recorded an average benchmarking score of 151,136.
The Wi-Fi Alliance certification body has approved two new listings for SM-A561F and SM-A562F. The listings that were first spotted by MySmartPrice reveals that the handset carries support for Wi-Fi 802.11ac. These could be the two variants of the rumored Galaxy A50s phone. No other details on the smartphone are available yet.
All the specs of the purported Galaxy A50s that have appeared so far are identical with Galaxy A50 handset. The A50 that has a 25-megapixel + 8-megapixel + 5-megapixel triple camera setup and a front-facing camera of 25-megapixel was recently benchmarked on DxOMark with a decent score of 83. Probably, the Galaxy A50s could be arriving with improved camera capabilities.

Amazon Prime Day represents the biggest sales you’ll find all summer if you are a Prime Member. As every year, ahead of the 48-hour deals marathon, an Early Prime Day will take place including laptops, video games, 4K TVs, phones and, of course, Amazon’s own Echo products. This is Amazon’s way of securing more Prime memberships. The sales are already up and the Echo Dot gets a 50% price cut costing just $24.99. On the list, you can even find Apple products like the AirPods, the entry-level iPad, Fitbit, and Roomba. XIDU is also taking part in the sale on July 14th with a laptop up to 40% off. The official sale will begin on July 15th and its going to get a bit chaotic so let’s see some details.
Amazon Prime Day starts on Monday, July 15th just after midnight (at 12:01 am PDT) and ends on Tuesday, July 16th (at 11:59 pm PDT). This is West coast time so some deals may appear online as soon as 3:00 am ET. Also, the best tactic to follow during Prime Day is to make your purchases during the presale offers so that you have time to make any returns in case you find a better price later on.
Laptop Deals
Deals appear gradually over the period of these 4 days (including the “warmup” period) so for example, the XIDU PhilBook will go live on July 14th 00:00 PDT with a deal price of $215.99 instead of $269.99 while the PhilBook Max will cost as low as $339.99 instead of $439.99.
History of Prime Day
Prime Day first launched four years ago and has grown into the biggest shopping day of the year with last year’s even surpassing Cyber Monday and Black Friday with 89 million visitors logging on to the site with 100 million products purchased during the sale event. Globally it was the biggest day of sales in Amazon’s history, and Amazon Prime Day 2019 is going to be even bigger.
Realme will launch two new phones on Monday, July 15 – the Realme X (not counting the Spider-Man Edition) and the Realme 3i, bringing its lineup for the year to six. With the year still having five months to go, more devices are expected to launch and it appears the Realme 4 and Realme 4 Pro might just be among.
Three new Realme phones with model numbers RMX1921, RMX1927 and RMX1971 were recently certified by the Eurasian Economic Commission in Russia and they are believed to be the Realme 4 and Realme 4 Pro. While the certificates don’t outrightly say those are their names, the model numbers of two of the phones hint at them being successors to the Realme 3 and Realme 3 Pro whose model numbers are RMX1821 and RMX1851 respectively. We are not sure about the phone with model number RMX1927 but that may be a successor to the Realme U1.
[envira-gallery id=”263706″]
The Realme 4 duo should come with new processors, upgraded cameras, and new designs. We also expect one, if not both of them will have a USB Type-C port. Android Q should be already official by the time they arrive but they will most likely run Android 9 Pie with an update to Android Q scheduled for later.
The Motorola P50 will be available for purchase on July 20 in China but pre-orders begin on July 15. The phone is the Chinese variant of the Motorola One Vision. However, unlike its international variant, the P50 has more RAM (6GB) but comes with the same storage. The phone has now gotten certified by TENAA and the listing reveals there will be two other configurations too.
Alongside the 6GB RAM version, TENAA says there is an 8GB RAM version with 256GB of storage and a 12GB version with 512GB of storage. That sure is a lot of RAM and storage for a mid-range device.
[envira-gallery id=”263690″]
The Motorola P50 will have a 6.34-inch LCD display with a 1080 x 2520 resolution. The screen has a punch hole in the top left corner for the selfie camera. On the back are dual rear cameras, although TENAA didn’t reveal the specs, Motorola already disclosed they are a 48MP f/1.7 primary sensor and a 5MP depth sensor while the selfie camera is a 25MP sensor.
The listing also says the phone will run Android 9 (with ZUI on top), have a 3290mAh battery (actually 3500mAh), and be available in black, blue, gold, white, silver, and gray. It weighs 180 grams and measures 160 x 71 x 8.7 millimeters.
Motorola already revealed the 6GB + 128GB version will sell for ¥2499 (~$364). We don’t know when and if the other RAM variants will be released but they sure will sell for a lot more.
Xiaomi has been launching Android One smartphones since the past two years. In 2017, the Xiaomi had launched the Mi 5X smartphone in China and the same phone’s Android One edition was unveiled as Xiaomi Mi A1. Last year, the Mi 6X for China was made available as Xiaomi Mi A2 Android One phone. Alongside the Mi A2, the company had also sold Mi A2 Lite Android One which was made available in some markets like China and India as Redmi 6 Pro. It was speculated that the recently unveiled Mi CC9 and Mi CC9e phones that respectively features SD710 and SD665 chipsets could be arriving in international markets as Mi A3 and Mi A3 Lite. Fresh information shared by popular tipster Ishan Agarwal states that the Mi A3 and Mi A3 Lite will respectively feature Snapdragon 730 and Snapdragon 675 chipsets.
The leakster has claimed that the new details on the Mi A3 series shared by him is a confirmed information. This indicates that the Mi A3 series will be more powerful than the Mi CC9 lineup. The Xiaomi Mi A2 and A2 Lite were announced in July which suggest that the arrival of the Mi A3 and Mi A3 Lite phones could be close at hand.
In the previous week, an Android One smartphone by Xiaomi with model number M1906F9SH was certified by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in the U.S and IMDA authority in Singapore. Not only the model number of the phone matched with the Mi CC9e, but also its dimension and rear design. It was also revealed that the Android One phone is equipped an AI powered 48-megapixel triple camera setup and in-screen fingerprint sensor. The CC9e also features a 48-megapixel triple camera unit. Hence, it may so happen that the Mi A3 and Mi A3 Lite could be international version of Mi CC9 and CC9e phones with more powerful chipsets.
The Mi CC9 and CC9e respectively features 6.01-inch and 6.39-inch S-AMOLED display with full HD+ resolution. Both phones feature 48-megapixel + 2-megapixel + 2-megapixel triple camera unit and 32-megapixel front-facing camera. They are also equipped with in-display fingerprint scanner. These handsets are packed with 4,030mAh batteries that carry support for 18W fast charging.
Recently, Huawei announced that it will hold the Huawei Developer Conference 2019 in Songshan Lake, Dongguan from August 9th to 11th. The conference’s keynote speech will be held on the first day of the event. We knew that Huawei would definitely be making a big announcement at the event, but now we know at least one of the things we’re going to see.
Huawei has recently updated the HDC2019 website, and it shows us that EMUI 10 will be launched at the event. This is some pretty big news on Huawei’s front, and we definitely weren’t expecting this. Part of that is because there’s been no news whatsoever regarding EMUI 10, and this is the first we’re hearing of it.
According to new rumors, EMUI 10 will feature a new design philosophy, or at least an updated version of the current design direction. We’ll also allegedly see a lot of improvements when it comes to the camera interface in terms of features, speed and features. It’ll also be based on Android Q, so we’ll get all those optimizations as well.
This is all honestly still quite surprising to us. Huawei haven’t been ones to make sudden announcements like this. It’s a move that makes a lot of sense though, seeing as to how HDC is their own developer conference. It only makes sense to make a big software launch at their own event. For more news on Huawei and EMUI 10, stay tuned on Gizmochina.com.
It’s already known that the Huawei is gearing up to launch its flagship smartphone series — Huawei Mate 30 in the coming months. Now, a report has surfaced online which sheds light on the upcoming smartphone’s design.
The report coming from the company’s supply chain suggests that the phone will come with a unibody design with no gap for the metal frame so that the phone can be made without any kind of notch or holes. It says that the company believes this kind of design to be the future of the smartphone design.
Earlier this year, another Chinese brand Vivo had introduced a concept phone with such glass unibody design. So, it’s quite possible that Huawei is preparing a smartphone with a glass unibody design.
If there are no holes in the phone, then the issue arises about the SIM card slot on the device. Well, the report says that the company will adopt the eSIM technology instead of the traditional SIM card.
For regular buttons such as power button and the volume rocker keys, it is said that the company will take the pressure-sensitive approach. For charging, the phone will have to be dependent on wireless charging.
However, take this information with a pinch of salt and there’s hardly any evidence pointing towards Mate 30 using the glass unibody design. While such a design for a smartphone is possible for the near future, we don’t expect the Huawei Mate 30 to take such an extreme approach of opting for a no-holes design.
Redmi gave some solid upgrades to its budget lineup this year, with the new Redmi 7A featuring an octa-core processor and better specs as compared to its predecessor. The phone was announced a few days ago in India and went on sale for the first time today. Unsurprisingly, the Redmi 7A was sold out within a few seconds in its first sale.
The phone was naturally quite popular in the budget segment due to its attractive price tag of just Rs. 5999 ($87). At this price, the Redmi 7A offers Snapdragon 439 octa-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, and an HD 720p 5.45-inch display. The polycarbonate body and the 18:9 aspect ratio ensures the phone doesn’t look cheap. Further, there’s a large 4000mAh battery on board to power the device for a couple of days easily. With these specs, you get tremendous value for money under $100.
However, it looks like Xiaomi couldn’t prepare enough stock in the first sale with the device selling out in a matter of seconds on both Flipkart and Mi.com. India MD Manu Kumar Jain has promised more stock in the second sale next week (July 18) but it remains to be seen whether it’ll be enough for users to grab a unit for purchase.
Note that the Redmi 7A does not have a fingerprint sensor but users can take advantage of its AI face unlock. There are two storage variants available, a 2GB+16GB model priced at Rs.5999 (~$87) and a 2+32GB one priced at Rs.6199 (~90). However, for a limited time this month, the company is offering both the variants at discount. So you can get the 32GB model at just Rs.5999 (~$90) which would be a steal!
The Huawei Enjoy 9S that has a model number of POT-AL00a had launched in China in March. The smartphone has been available for purchase in the home market in 4 GB and 6 GB RAM editions. While the 4 GB RAM model of the Enjoy 9S comes in 64 GB and 128 GB storage editions, the 6 GB RAM variant is only available in 4 GB RAM edition. A TENAA listing of the POT-AL00 smartphone reveals that the company may soon debut a new 6 GB RAM edition for it with 128 GB onboard storage.
In China, the Enjoy 9S is available in variants such as 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage for 1,499 Yuan (~$218), 4 GB RAM + 128 GB storage for 1,599 Yuan (~$232) and 6 GB RAM + 64 Gb storage and 1,699 Yuan (~$247). It is available in colors like Black, Aurora Blue and Coral Red editions. The TENAA listing of the POT-AL00 smartphone reveals that it will come with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. As far as color variants are concerned, the listing reveals it will come in black, blue, etc. colors.
Huawei may soon announce the arrival of 6 GB + 128 GB Enjoy 9S in the coming days. Probably, it may carry a price tag of 1,799 Yuan (~$262).
The Huawei Enjoy 9S has an IPS LCD display of 6.21 inches. It has a waterdrop notch and it carries support for full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. The handset offers an aspect ratio of 19.5:9.
The EMUI 9 based Android 9 Pie OS runs on the device. It is fueled by Kirin 710 chipset. The handset features a 3,400mAh battery that is equipped with 10W charging. Apart from internal storage, the phone supports a microSD card through hybrid SIM slot.
The Enjoy 9S has a front-facing camera of 8-megapixel. The triple camera setup that resides on its back panel has a 24-megapixel main sensor, a 16-megapixel ultrawide lens and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. A fingerprint scanner is available on the backside of the smartphone. The Enjoy 9S is available as Huawei P Smart+ 2019 in European markets.
How do you think about wireless charging? In these two years, most of mobile phone users focus on whether the latest smartphone coming with a feature of wireless charging. I am the one of them. With the wireless charging, users can pick up the phone easily without the charging cable. Several days ago, I got the Choetech Wireless Charging Pad. Let’s have a look!
The Choetech Wireless Charger has an oval-shape design, which almost as size as iPhone XS Max. The wireless charger comes with anti-slip PU leather surface, which is textured and special. There is a logo of CHOETECH in the middle of the charging pad. In terms of weight, the charging pad is lighter than iPhone XS Max. During the period of use, I always take the charging pad in my bag to everywhere.
There are six ventilation holes and four rubber feet on the back side. The charging port, type-c port, is placed at the side face, and the indicator light is on the other side face.
The design of the Choetech wireless charger is simple but practical. As the oval-shape design, you can put two smartphones on the charging pad to charge. Yes, the Choetech Wireless Charger Pad can charge for two smartphones at the same time. It’s really convenient for those people who have two smartphones. What’s more, you can share it with your friends and charge simultaneously.
The charging pad ships with a charging cable, which is made from quality plastic for the cable. Actually, I do like the charging cable, which is a little thicker than the other charging cable.
The Choetech Fast Charger is matt surface design, which is solid and textured. Compared with other QC 3.0 fast charger, the Choetech Fast Charger has smaller size, which can be taken out easily.
In the test, I use the Choetech QC3.0 Fast Charger and Choetech Wireless Charging Pad to charge iPhone XS Max and Huawei P30 Pro for 30 minutes.
iPhone XS Max — from 35% to 51% in 30 minutes.
Huawei P30 Pro — from 15% to 31% in 30 minutes.
I deem the charging speed is not so fast, but the wireless charging pad can get five stars at the aspect of convenience.
Conclusion
I like the Choetech Wireless Charging Pad, which is light, portable and quality. The most attractive is that it supports charging two smartphones simultaneously.
