A few days ago, Nubia released a poster that teased it would attend this year’s edition of MWC. The poster hinted at the launch of a flexible device at the event. Nubia has now sent invites confirming that the launch is actually for the Nubia α, its foldable smartphone which wraps around the wrist like a smartwatch.
The renders of the Nubia α show the device has a flexible touch display. There are thick bulges on the sides with the right one housing a camera and a button. There is also a port on the left side for data transfer as there are contact pins underneath for charging.
Xiaomi is often referred to as the “Apple of China” because of its innovative products and when we think of Apple we are reminded of its late founder Steve Jobs. Xiaomi is always keen to copy Apple’s innovations and that may have veered into non-tech related aspect. In a recent Weibo post, the company’s social media handlers shared a poster with the caption “One more thing”. Now, this was Steve Job’s legendary parting shot during the company’s launch events and it is usually followed by the unexpected announcement of a new product.
Seems Xiaomi is going to be following that path and may likely be announcing another product on February 20 aside from the Mi 9. As for what the product could be, the Mi Router Weibo handle did not leave us in doubt indicating that a new router would be joining the fray. There is no detail about the router but we expect it to be an upgrade over the current crop of high-end routers.
Xiaomi presently has a number of Wi-Fi routers under its arsenal since it first entered the router business in 2013. That is perhaps because of the importance of the router as a networking device in the home, office and other public places. As a matter of act, the Mi Routers have become one of the company’s main products alongside the Mi phones and Mi TV.
The Mi 9 has been getting all the spotlight but now it is the turn of the Mi 9 Explorer Edition. The very first render has surfaced online and it shows there will be a big difference between it and the Mi 9 which itself is shaping up to be a fantastic device.
The Mi 9 Explorer Edition’s existence was confirmed a few weeks ago by Xiaomi’s president but this is the first time we are seeing what it looks like even though it’s only of the phone’s rear.
Unlike the Mi 9 which will have a triple rear camera setup, the Explorer Edition will come with four. So, while the Mi 9 will be Xiaomi’s first triple rear camera smartphone, the Mi 9 Explorer Edition will be its first quad rear camera smartphone.
The four sensors are arranged vertically with the uppermost sensor having a red ring around it. This is most likely the primary sensor. All the sensors share a single housing and there is an LED flash below the setup.
Even though this is just a partial reveal of the device, we can see Xiaomi is bringing back the transparent design that shows the phone’s “internals”. And just like its predecessor, the Mi 8 Explorer Edition, this is most likely a 3D printed piece of plastic covering the phone’s real internals. Can you see the Snapdragon logo in the image?
The render shows the Mi 9 Explorer Edition has its volume rocker and power button on the right. We bet there is an extra button on the left too. However, what we are more curious about is its display. Will it have a waterdrop notch too or a regular notch or maybe a punch hole? We will have to wait for more images to surface.
A short hands-on video of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S10+ flagship phone has been released by well-known accessory retailer called Mobile Fun. Even though its short clip, it manages to reveal the front design of the phone.
The Galaxy S10+ leaked hands-on video shows that there is a plastic screen protector on its display. There is no confirmation whether it is the thin plastic film what comes on the device out of the box or it is a specially designed screen protectors with dedicated cutouts for dual selfie snappers and in-screen fingerprint scanner.
The optical in-screen fingerprint scanner that are available on recent smartphones work without any issues with transparent screen protector. There is a possibility that the ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor may only work when there is direct contact of the fingertip to the authentication area on the display. It may not want a screen protector film in between and this could be reason behind the large round-shaped cutout.
The Galaxy S10+ is expected to feature a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with Infinity-O design. It may come with 10-megapixel + 8-megapixel dual front-facing camera. The handset may arrive with Snapdragon 855 or Exynos 9820 SoC in different markets. The SoC could be supported by 8 GB of RAM. It may come with up to 512 GB of storage.
The Galaxy S10+ may run on One UI flavored Android 9 Pie OS. It may include 4,000mAh battery which could be equipped with features like rapid charging, wireless charging and reverse wireless charging. The rear-mounted triple camera setup may include 12-megapixel primary sensor, 12-megapixel RGB sensor and 16-megapixel ultra-wide angle sensor.
Samsung is expected to release a limited-edition Galaxy S10+. It may sport a ceramic body, 12 GB of RAM and 1 TB of native storage.

Meizu finally announced the product it has been teasing today. The new device is a special edition Meizu 16 Plus made in partnership with Astel&Kern and Jerry Harvey Audio.
The special edition set includes an Aurora Blue Meizu 16 Plus (8GB RAM + 128GB of storage), an Astell&Kern XB10 DAC+AMP, and a pair of Astell&Kern Billie Jean In-Ear-Monitors (IEM) which has Jerry Harvey’s freqphase® technology from Jerry Harvey Audio.
The whole set costs ¥4598 (~$679), much cheaper than the ¥6999 (~$1033) price tag we saw from a few days ago. If you were to purchase the items in the bundle separately, you will be spending much more than $679. The Aurora Blue Meizu 16 Plus costs ¥3298 (~$487), the Astell&Kern XB10 is priced at $129 currently and the Billie Jean IEM is $349. That is a total of $965!
[envira-gallery id=”236384″]
The Astell&Kern XB10 is shaped like a hockey puck. It brings 24bit/48kHz high-quality wireless audio thanks to the Meizu 16 Plus’ support for Qualcomm’s aptX HD and also has a DAC and AMP built-in. You can plug in the Billie Jean IEM into the 3.5mm audio jack on the side. It also has a 2.5mm connector.
Update: The CEO has also released photos of the purple variant which has the same holographic effect as the blue variant.
It is not every time you see a company executive post renders of its own phone ahead of its official release. But that is what Xiaomi‘s own CEO, Lei Jun, has done today.
The co-founder has shared a bunch renders of the upcoming Mi 9 flagship on his Weibo page in order to explain the process taken to achieve the impressive design. And one of the photos (below) isn’t actually a render but a real photograph of the phone. There is also a new official poster (above) that shows Xiaomi’s brand ambassador holding the phone.
According to Mr. Lei Jun, the sky blue Mi 9 will show the different colors of a rainbow depending on the angle and color of light that hits it. To achieve this, the phone undergoes a nano-scale laser holography process with a double-layer coating for the finishing.
None of the photos show the front of the phone but we already know it sports a waterdrop display thanks to live images that leaked yesterday. Nevertheless, we get a closer look at the triple rear cameras which is made up of a 48MP primary sensor, a 12MP secondary camera, and a ToF sensor.
[envira-gallery id=”236391″]
There is also a USB Type-C port at the bottom and it is flanked by a speaker grille on both sides. Xiaomi already removed the audio jack back when it launched the Mi 6, so it is no surprise it is missing on the Mi 9 too.
Today, Xiaomi has officially announced a new case for the Xiaomi Mi 9. The new case is inspired by the TFBoy’s Wang Roy who is the brand ambassador of Xiaomi mobile. It has already been leaked in several teasers in past some days. Yesterday, Xiaomi officially announced him as a brand ambassador and a poster was released of him holding the Xiaomi Mi 9 Wang Roy Case. The limited edition mobile case is covered with a green colour and a huge ROY letters sculped on its backside.
Xiaomi will sell the Mi 9 Wang Roy case separately with the mobile device. Today, Lei Jun took to the official Weibo handle to announce the new case for Xiaomi Mi 9. Well, as from the images, we came to know about the triple camera sensors mounted on the rear side of the device along with an LED flash. Xiaomi has emphasised a lot on the camera department of Mi 9. It is expected to cross the Huawei P20 Pro’s 109 camera score on the DxO mark.
The device is encased in the protective shell, limiting the possibility to know about some features of the unreleased device. Although, as per the leaks and the rumours Xiaomi Mi 9 will have the 48-megapixel camera + a 12 megapixel + a 3D TOF camera for augmented reality. Further, it will have a uniform water display design. It will carry a much thinner bezel on the bottom in comparison with the Mi 8.
Xiaomi Mi 9 is reported to come with a 6.4 inch AMOLED display protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass protection. The Chinese technology firm is expected to endeavour it with an in-screen fingerprint sensor. It will also feature improved AI integration. In the Chinese version, Xiaomi will incorporate the Xiao AI assistant, while international counterparts will be served with the Google Assitant.
Additionally, as far as the performance is concerned, it is reported to be powered by a Snapdragon 855 SoC. Xiaomi Mi 9 will be paired with 6GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage. The device will have a 3500 mAh battery with fast charging support of upto 27W. In connectivity, it will come with an NFC and USB type-C.
Since the announcement of the February 20 launch date for the flagship Mi 9, the tech space has been buzzing with one detail or the other popping up. We recently saw the real-life image of the Mi 9 pop up online as well as the protective case the company will be releasing alongside the phone. A Xiaomi official has now shared a camera sample shot by the Mi 9.
As already established by several leaks, the Mi 9 is expected to feature a triple rear camera setup. The main camera will have a mammoth 48MP sensor while the secondary camera will be a 12MP sensor. The third sensor will likely be a ToF camera. The camera sample can’t be said to be out of this world but the executive did state that the purpose of sharing the sample is for us to get a look at the powerful resolution of the rear camera. Unfortunate, Weibo has done some compression but the picture is well pixelated such that it doesn’t become blurry when zoomed in, thanks to the 48MP main sensor.
Xiaomi has already featured a 48MP sensor on the Redmi Note 7 released recently. But instead of a Samsung ISOCELL GM1 Ultra Clear sensor, the main sensor will likely be the SonyIMX600 sensor used in the Huawei P/Mate series flagship and having a higher super-sensing area. The ultra-high pixels provide more detailed performance as can be seen from the camera sample above. We’ll have to wait for more samples captured under varying lighting conditions to know the full prowess of the Mi 9 triple rear cameras.
UPDATED: Check out some more camera samples from the Mi 9 below.
Google has loaded a lot of new things for launch in 2019. According to various rumours and reports, Google is launching multiple new smartphones, watches, and accessories in 2019. Amid of Apple’s low sales, Google sees an opportunity to bring the ecosystem with some new advancements. They are bragging the new opportunity as a launching pad for several new devices.
As per old reports, Google is now going to expand its hands in the hardware market with the launch of the new smartwatch, speakers, smartphones, etc. After playing with the premium smartphones for several years, now the Search giant is making a move with newer products in the market. Google is going to launch the cheaper Google Pixel 3 Lite for the price-sensitive customers. Although there are no confirmations from Google side, but multiple leaks and reports speculate its launch soon. Even the pricing details are unknown, but it will surely be less than the iPhone XR. Apple iPhone XR is the cheapest offering from Apple at $749.
The new Pixel 3 Lite and Pixel 3 XL Lite is rumoured to be launching on the Verizon network in the United States this spring. The Pixel 3 Lite expected to carry a 4GB RAM, 32 GB Storage and a Snapdragon 670. It is rumoured to host a 5.6 inch IPS Full HD+ display.
There will be many other budget offerings that will launch this year. Google has plans to announce some other smart products. The list includes Google Pixel watch at the top spot. It will be the company’s first wearable device which has already been delayed due to some reasons last year. Google doesn’t want to wait for more time to launch its wearable device in the market.
Further, the Search giant is also coming up with new smart speakers. Moreover, it’s unconfirmed whether it will come with a wholly new smart speaker or will be an updated version of the old Home products. There are also chances for a security camera to pop up this year.
It’s a tough time for Apple as the company is struggling to improve the sales of the iPhone this fiscal year. There are many reasons which are prompting such a decline in sales. On the other hand, Google is working on to expand its production across Asia. The company has hired many ex-Apple employees to boost their products portfolio.

Many smartphone brands, especially China-based manufacturers, have adopted the strategy of launching smartphone sub-brands to target different segments of the market. Now, it seems that Lenovo is also all set to jump the bandwagon.
A new Weibo account has surfaced with the name “Lemeng Mobile” which was also shared with the account of Lenovo Mobile on Weibo. Further, information on the new brand’s Weibo account reveals that it is a part of Beijing Lenovo Group, confirming that the Lemeng Mobile is a sub-brand of Lenovo Mobile.
Today, the microblogging account of Lemeng Mobile posted that the company will be holding a meeting at Lenovo’s Beijing headquarters park to decide about the brand’s future going forward. If the brand is actually getting launched, it remains to be seen how it will distinguish itself from devices from Lenovo.
However, this is not a new brand coming out of Lenovo. The brand Lemeng Mobile previously existed and was focused on making music-focused phones. However, the brand was discontinued a few years ago and now it seems that Lenovo is rebooting the same brand.
Earlier this year, Xiaomi’s Redmi brand split from the parent company to work as an independent brand. After splitting, it launched the Redmi Note 7 smartphone, which has been well-received by the users. It is all set to launch Redmi Note 7 Pro and has recently launched Redmi Go — an Android Go-powered phone.
Last year, Oppo’s sub-brand Realme also split from the parent company and has taken the Indian budget smartphone market by storm. Within a year of its launch, the brand has established its presence in seven countries — India, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Phillippines, and Egypt. So far, the company has launched five smartphones and a couple of accessories and lifestyle products.
Huawei, which is currently the No. 2 smartphone brand in the world, also has a sub-brand named Honor, which is focused on the budget smartphones with value-for-money offerings while the Huawei brand is focused on offering high-end premium smartphones.
While the company is selling smartphones under its Lenovo brand, the China-based company also owns Motorola Mobility, which is acquired in 2014 from Google for $2.91 billion in order to break into the US and UK markets.

Last month, on 30th January, Meizu officially kicked-off its plan to commercialize the Meizu Zero smartphone and launched a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo, with the order expected to start shipping in April this year.
Now, after around 15 days, Meizu Zero — the world’s first holeless smartphone — has managed to secure about 34 percent of its goal of raising $100,000. The company now has 16 days left to secure the rest of the amount to turn this concept phone into a reality.
If the company fails to raise the amount of $100,000 in the specified time limit, none of the company will go to the Chinese company and the existing 30 backers will get the refund. This is because the company chose the fixed goal route in which the campaign only receives funding when the goal is reached within the deadline.
In terms of specifications, the Meizu Zero features a 5.99-inch curved OLED panel with full HD+ resolution of 2160 x 1080 pixels. It is equipped with mSound 2.0 technology which makes it possible for the smartphone to emit sound from the screen which eliminates the need for earpiece and external speaker.
The screen of the smartphone is also embedded with an in-display fingerprint sensor — something that almost all flagship smartphones have adopted. The device also comes with an IP68 certified for dustproof and waterproof to keep it completely sealed and there’s no opening on the device.
Since there’s no holes and buttons, the smartphone is equipped with linear motor-powered pressure-sensitive virtual buttons for power ON/OFF and volume up/down functions. The rear panel of the smartphone is made up of ceramic. There is also no SIM card slot on the device but it carries support for eSIM.
The company has dubbed the smartphone as “Exclusive Engineer Unit”, priced at $1,299, and is said to be handmade by Meizu’s engineers. This also raises a question related to the company’s ability to mass-produce this model. There’s also another version tagged “Exclusive Pioneering Unit” and with a $2,999 price tag but that version is sold out as just a single unit was available. The smartphone will be offered in Black and White color options.

Huawei, the world’s No. 2 smartphone brand, has announced a new update for its Android-based custom mobile operating system — EMUI 9. In the new update, the company has upgraded the facial unlock feature to support two faces.
This will enable users to store two facial profiles on their phones and could use either of them for unlocking the device. Earlier, users were allowed to keep only one profile for the facial recognition-based unlock feature.
As per the reports, the new update is currently being rolled out to only two flagship smartphones of the company — Huawei Mate 20 Pro and Huawei Mate 20 RS Porsche Edition. For those who have received the update, you can use this new feature by going through the following steps.
Navigation to the settings menu on the phone and go to “Security and Privacy.” Once you reach there, enter the “Face Unlocking” section and once you have added the first facial profile, you’ll get an option to add a “New Spare Face”. Tap that option and select “Start Entry” and “Enter the second face” to complete the process of adding another profile.
Either of the facial profile can be used for any function, including phone unlocking, application unlocking, Alipay or WeChat payment authentication, among others. EMUI also has a feature that hides the notifications until the facial recognition is done and for this also, either of the facial profiles can be used.
It remains to be seen if the company has solved the issues related to the facial recognition feature. Users had previously reported that if the facial profile was created wearable spectacles, the phone wasn’t able to authenticate when the face gets scanned without wearing the spectacles.
The EMUI 9.0 update brings various new changes along with all the features of Android 9 Pie. The customized skin comes with plenty of bug fixes and enhancements over the EMUI 8.0. The new user interface is better optimized for full view displays and carries additional AI-based features.
It also comes with GPU Turbo 2.0 which reduces the touch response of the phone by 36 percent and adds a new app assistant. Since EMUI 9 is based on Android Pie, it also gets navigation gestures. Among other features, the Android Pie also comes with Adaptive Battery which makes use of machine learning technology to improve the phone’s power management.
