Redmi General Lu Weibing had confirmed earlier today that the name of the first flagship phone by Redmi will be confirmed tomorrow. He has even hinted the Redmi’s flagship smartphone could be called P20 Pro, X20 Pro, T20 Pro and K20 Pro. Before the official confirmation tomorrow, reliable tipster Ishan Agarwal has revealed that the upcoming flagship phones from the Chinese firm will be called Redmi K20 and Redmi K20 Pro.

The tipster has not shared any other details on the forthcoming Redmi K20 and K20 Pro smartphones. In the last week, he had revealed that both phones will be made available in China in colors like Blue, Red and Carbon fibers. He had also claimed that theses phones will be arriving in four models such as 6 GB RAM + 64 GB storage, 6 GB RAM + 128 GB storage, 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage and 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage. It is speculated that one of these phones will be released outside of China as Poco F2.

The Redmi K20 and Redmi K20 Pro don’t really sound exciting names for flagship phones. Through tomorrow’s announcement Redmi will probably let it fans know why it decided to use K20 moniker for its flagship phone. Also, the Chinese firm may confirm the launch date of the Redmi K20 and Redmi K20 Pro smartphones.

Redmi K20 Pro and K20 are expected to be fueled by Snapdragon 855 SoC. There is a possibility that the non-Pro model could be fueled by Snapdragon 730 SoC.

Tencent’s PUBG Mobile replacement ‘Game for Peace’ is a big hit in China

May 13, 2019

Tencent, the company behind the PUBG game recently announced a replacement for the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) Mobile with a game called ‘Game of Peace’. As per the report, within just 72 hours of its launch, the game has started generating revenue and has collected over $14 million.

Also, the Game for Peace iOS version was the most downloaded free game and top-grossing game in Apple’s China App Store, according to data from Sensor Tower. Tencent, which is the world’s biggest games publisher by revenue, is now finally generating income from the massive user base for the popular battle royale genre.

Tencent wasn’t able to make money from the mobile version of the PUBG game because of regulatory delays and a government crackdown on content. So the company closed the title last week and launched the new ‘Game for Peace’.

It has similar gameplay and also allows users to migrate their data from PUBG Mobile automatically. Tencent received approval to generate revenue from the new title from regulators last month, which means users can buy skins and other in-game items immediately when they start playing the game.

Besides regulatory reshuffle, China has also banned violent, sexual, and politically sensitive content across many platforms, from TV shows to video games. As a nod to the government’s campaign to protect children’s health and prevent gaming addiction, Game for Peace is only available to players aged 16 or above.

Further, the company has said in a statement that it will limit the gameplay period for those aged 16 to 18 to two hours per day. As per the game’s description on the website, Game for Peace pays tribute to the People’s Liberation Army Air Force in defending the country’s territory.

In a recent Weibo post, Oppo Vice President Brian Shen confirmed the company is working on a ‘Cool’ new smartphone aimed for launch in H1 2019. There are no more details shared about the upcoming smartphone. However, it could be the Oppo K3 which recently appeared on China Telecom’s website.

Xiaomi to release a Kindle-like e-book reader next week?

May 13, 2019

Amazon’s Kindle may not be the first e-book reader that was released but the device is presently the most popular and perhaps highest-selling e-Book reader around. It looks like Xiaomi could also be planning to release a Kindle-like reader as early as next week, at least according to a new product review. However, there is uncertainty if the product will be a Xiaomi-branded one or from one of its ecological chain companies. Since there is no official pre-launch promotion, the likely possibility, though, is that it will be a third-party product that would be launched by Xiaomi under the MIJIA/Youpin crowdfunding platform.

From the leaked picture of the e-Book reader, it uses e-ink screen which is standard for all e-books and has a red power button at the top right corner. The screen looks like an 8-incher with a wide border around it for easy grip. As usual, e-book readers are basically to read e-books so we don’t expect the gadget to have any eye-popping features. The hardware is also expected to be entry-level. To recap, Amazon’s Kindle has no more than 2GB RAM on its highest version and all run on MediaTek SoCs. We also expect features such as WiFi, and a cheap price tag on the upcoming Xiaomi e-reader.

It is worth mentioning that Xiao Mu, the general manager of Xiaomi’s intelligent hardware department, and Li Chuangqi, the senior product director of Xiaomi, both confirmed back in November last year that one of Xiaomi’s eco-chain companies was preparing a Kindle-like e-book reader. The product design was said to have been at 75% completion back then. It has been half a year since and if it progresses smoothly, the project may have finally taken shape.

Android Q is great, but Google is having a hard time naming it

May 13, 2019

Google always named the new Android versions after desserts. It started off with the “Cupcake” codename for Android 1.5 about a decade ago, and now it’s time to name Android Q. Google unveiled the Android Q third beta build at the Google I/O 2019 conference last week. It is now available for 21 devices including both Pixel as-well-as third-party smartphones.

However, this time, Google is finding it difficult to assign Android Q an official name. “We’re super excited about the desserts,” Sameer Samat, said Google’s vice president of product management for Android and Play. “At the same time, Q is a hard letter. But we’re looking at it.”

Google always picks a name which goes with the company’s image. Google has even partnered with popular brands to name Android 4.4 KitKat and Android 8.0 Oreo. Unlike Google, Microsoft and Apple follow candid approach while naming their software iterations.

However, the Search Giant will pop-out the official name before launching Android Q in the second half of this year. Interested users can flash the Android Q beta build on the supported devices. Improved features such as better privacy control, enhanced biometric protection, gesture navigation, Project Mainline, Dark theme, and smart reply are part of the Android Q OS.

Oppo is offering an Enterprise Edition of the Oppo A7n

May 13, 2019

The competition in the smartphone market, especially in the budget and mid-range segment is quite fierce. In order to have an edge over their competitors, smartphone manufacturers are now adopting the strategy to cater to the enterprise-level customers.

In a similar move, Oppo has started offering Oppo A7n smartphone to government and enterprise clients since last month. As a part of this offering, the China-based company will be providing customized solutions based on the client’s needs.

For industries such as public security, finance, among others, it offers a customized mobile device which not only ensures that the technology has no dead-ends but also improves the underlying security.

Recently, Oppo A7n — a budget smartphone offering from the company, passed the “Public Security and Police Electronic Product Quality Testing Center” test. This means that the phone is certified for the enterprise customers.

Unlike the general public usage, the need for smartphones for the government and enterprises is quite different. It focuses on usages such as storage of work data, secured transmission of confidential data, more durable battery life, etc.

Oppo says that the company strives to continuously improve its technological innovation with its solid product foundation as it gets faced with special challenges in the field of serving government and enterprises.

The company recently showcased the customized services and the Oppo A7n unit during the “2019 China Unicom Global – The Industry Chain Partner Conference” set up as an exhibition for the government and enterprises.

The Oppo A7n addresses the pain points of public and private users of government and enterprises, and creates a “dual domain security system” — personal domain and work domain. The “personal domain” satisfies the personal needs of the user while the “work domain” is specially set for the office use.

The device comes with a dedicated microSD card slot that can support up to 256 GB of expanded storage space. When inserting the card, the encryption chip will perform functions such as identity authentication, data encryption transmission, and confidential call, ensuring data security. It comes with 4,230mAh battery and is equipped with a Smart Power Saving feature.

Realme is all set to launch the Realme X smartphone at a launch event in China later this week. As the phone’s launch near, the company is sharing more and more details regarding the upcoming smartphone.

After teasing some of the phone’s specifications, the company has now shared a poster of the Realme X smartphone online, which reveals the phone’s design in all its glory. It confirms that the phone will indeed come with a pop-up selfie camera module.

The shared image shows the Realme X device in two gradient color options — Blue and White. There’s no fingerprint sensor on the back panel, which hints that the phone will have an in-display fingerprint sensor.

In a recent teaser, the company confirmed that it will be using the next-generation optical in-display fingerprint sensor in which the area has been increased by 44 percent. Thanks to the pop-up front-facing camera, there’s no notch on top of the display and thus, the phone offers higher screen-to-body ratio.

As per the previous reports, the Realme X will be arriving with a 6.5-inch AMOLED notch-less display that will offer Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. Under the hood, the device will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 SoC which will be coupled with 4GB of RAM.

On the back side, the phone will have Sony IMX586 48 MP primary camera and a 5 MP secondary sensor. There will be a 16 MP snapper on the front side. The phone is expected to draw power from a 3,700mAh battery with VOOC 3.0 fast charging support and will come pre-loaded with ColorOS 6.0 based Android 9 Pie operating system.

At the same launch event, along with the Realme X smartphone, the company will also be launching the Realme 3 Pro under a new name — Realme X Youth Edition (aka Realme X Lite). To know the phone’s pricing and availability information, we’ll have to wait for the official launch event to take place.

The Huawei P Smart Z is Huawei’s first smartphone with a pop-up selfie camera. It was seen on the official Huawei Spain and Huawei Italy websites last week but is yet to go on sale. However, it isn’t the only pop-up selfie camera phone from the Chinese phone maker. There is the Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 and it is almost the same phone as the P Smart Z but with an extra rear camera.

The Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 has been listed on Huawei’s official website, baring all its specs.

We said it shares nearly the same specs and even design as the Huawei P Smart Z. So you get a 6.59-inch Ultra FullView Display with a 2340 x 1080 resolution in front and a two-toned finish on the back. There is a Kirin 710F processor under the hood and it is paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. Unlike the P Smart Z, it also has a 128GB version and both variants have a MicroSD card slot for up to 512GB of additional storage

The pop-up selfie camera is a 16MP sensor, while the rear cameras, which are 16MP + 2MP dual camera sensors on the P Smart Z, add an 8MP ultra wide-angle lens to make a triple camera setup. There are lots of camera features including 3D Portrait retouching (for front and rear cameras) and AI scene recognition.

The Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 has a 4000mAh battery which charges via a USB Type-C port. There is a fingerprint scanner on the back but there is no NFC which the P Smart Z has. The phone runs EMUI 9.0 based on Android Pie and comes in Midnight Black, Emerald Green, and Sapphire Blue.

There is still a little over a week before the Honor 20 series’ official launch. The phones will also be unveiled in London, exactly a week after the OnePlus 7 series. While we wait, new posters have surfaced that tease the cameras the phones will have.

These posters not only confirm the number of (rear) cameras on the phones but one of them actually tells us what type of lens each sensor uses.

[envira-gallery id=”252749″]

As you can see in the images above, there are four piercings on the lips and ear, signifying the Honor 20 and Honor 20 Pro will have quad rear cameras. The images also show us the cameras are arranged in an L-shape.

The third poster is the one that actually tells us the type of lens each sensor has. The first bubble has a regular picture which represents the standard lens. The second bubble is an ultra-wide angle picture as it shows a wider view of the first image and thus confirms the phones will have an ultra-wide angle lens.

The third bubble has a really close-up picture of a leaf with the background blurred, representing the macro lens. The last bubble shows a close-up view of the two birds in images 1 and 2, confirming the phone also has a telephoto zoom lens.

We want to share the release schedule of the Android Pie updates for #HTC smartphones. Please note, certain regions & carrier deployment may affect these dates. U11 rollout will begin late May, 2019; U11+ will begin late June, 2019; U12+ will begin mid-June, 2019. Thank you pic.twitter.com/eyeCdX5qWm
