Nov 14, 2018

Moto X4, an all-glass smartphone from Lenovo‘s Motorola that was launched in August last year, has now started receiving the Android 9 Pie update in India. The over-the-air (OTA) update is around 1.1GB in size and carries build number PPW29.69-17.

When launched, the phone was running Android 7 Nougat operating system out-of-the-box and received the Android 8.1 Oreo update earlier this year. The new Android Pie update is the second major update for the Moto X4.

It is likely that the new update is being rolled out in phases, so you may have to wait a couple of days to receive the update if you haven’t already. To install the update, go to Settings > About device > Software update > Check for update.

The Android Pie update should bring several new features to the year-old Moto X4, including the new gesture navigation, App Actions, App Slices support, Adaptive Battery, Digital Wellbeing, Dark Mode, among others.

The Moto X4 flaunts a 5.2-inch LTS IPS Full HD display with 1920 x 1080 pixels screen resolution and pixel density of 424ppi. Under the hood, the phone is powered by QualcommSnapdragon 630 octa-core processor clocked at 2.2GHz.

It comes in three models — 3GB RAM with 32GB internal storage, 4GB RAM with 64GB internal storage, and 6GB RAM with 64GB internal storage. There’s a 12MP + 8MP camera on the back and an 8MP front-facing shooter.

The phone supports Dual SIM, 4G VoLTE, USB Type-C port, NFC, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n/ac, GPS, and GLONASS. The IP68 certified device is powered by a 3,000mAh battery with fast charging support.

Apart from Moto X4, the company has also promised Android Pie update for the Moto Z3, Z3 Play, Moto Z2 Force Edition, Moto Z2 Play, Moto G6, G6 Play, and G6 Plus. The Motorola One Power was recently spotted running Android Pie, so its safe to assume that the company will soon roll out Android Pie for the One Power.

Meizu could be one of the first ones to use Snapdragon 8150

Nov 14, 2018

There are plenty of rumors about the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 aka Snapdragon 8150 SoC. We have got reports that the Meizu’s new device will debut on the Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 855 chipset in December. Already, it has been touted to debut with the Galaxy S9 in the early next year with the 5G support and 7nm process. The new SoC will directly compete against the Kirin 980 which have dual NPUs and support for 5G, Apple A12 which is built on 7nm and is already here with new iPhone alterations, and the Samsung’s Exynos 9820 which is built upon the 8nm process.

Today a famous user on Weibo posted that the Meizu is set for debut with the Qualcomm’s 8150 chip. The new flagship device of Meizu will feature a similar design as that of the Meizu 16th. Only, its frame will be replaced by stainless steel. There will not be any significant change rather than some tweaks in the design of the Meizu 16th. There is a probability that it might acquire a different approach in design rather than the current full view display.

If the new report is to believe, then the new Meizu 16s or any other Meizu device will be an attraction among the buyers, and it will help them to get some good sales. Still, there are many illusions about the Snapdragon 855, but we have to wait for a month more before we compare it with the competitors such as Apple A12, kirin 980 and recently launched Exynos 9820.

As per the rumors, Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 will have three-clusters CPU, and the core cluster is designed similar to Kirin 980 and Exynos 9820. Further, there will be two super large cores, two large ones and the last will be small cores. It will come with the Snapdragon X24 4G LTE based (2GBps) modem. Though, there are rumors which are also pointing towards its 5G capabilities.

Still, there are still many unanswered questions on the web about Snapdragon 855. We have to wait for some time more for the official debut of it on any mobile device.

Xiaomi’s $575 million worth of sales at this year’s double 11 Singles’ Day is also constituted majorly by Xiaomi TV sales. In a new report from the AVI Cloud, an online data monitoring company, it was found that Xiaomi TV sales were twice as much as the second best brand in the recent 11.11 sale event. It has witnessed huge TV sales and has constituted 28.9% overall TV sales and stood first in the distribution list. While, Skyworth stood at 13.8% followed by Hisense at 11.1%, TCL at 6.3% and many other major TV manufacturers in the remaining list.

In the data above, we can see the difference in sales between the Xiaomi and Skyworth which remained at the 1st and 2nd position in the distribution chart. As the sales have risen, it has led to a considerable increase in the earnings also. Xiaomi has grabbed 24% of the total sale amount share in TV sales at double 11 events. Similarly, Skyworth held the 2nd position with 13.5% percent chunk while Sony’s high-cost TVs has led them to earn 16.8% of total sales.

Even companies like Changhong has earned a good amount of sales worth 6.5%. While Hisense stood at 13.2%, TCL shelled 11.7% and brands like Haier and Sharp constituted ~6% of sale amount share.

Well, it seems Xiaomi has got a lot of profit this time from the 11.11 sales. Xiaomi has gained sales worth $575 million in just 24 hours on the sale day.

Further, the company has also confirmed that the Realme 2 will be also be updated to Android 9 Pie. In a tweet, the company has confirmed that it would be releasing Android Pie for both the Realme 1 and Realme 2 smartphones ‘soon’.

However, the company has not yet revealed specific timeframe but it seems that the update will be released early next year. Since the ColorOS 5.2 for Realme 2 will be rolled out in December-end, we expect the Android Pie for the same to be available by the end of the first quarter next year.

Previously, the company had confirmed that the Realme 1 will be receiving the Android Pie update and it appears that the Android 9 Pie for the Realme 1 will be released a little sooner than the Realme 2. We expect the company to release more details regarding this in the coming weeks.

The company has still not revealed anything related to the Android Pie update for the Realme 2 Pro but given that the Realme 2 is confirmed to get Android 9 Pie, the 2 Pro should also be updated to the newer version of Android.

What is to be seen is if the company plans to roll out Android Pie update for the Realme C1, which is the most affordable smartphone from the company so far. The phone was priced at Rs. 6,999 (approx. $97) in India when launched, however, it received a price hike recently and is now retailing for Rs. 7,999, roughly $111.

Apart from Realme C1, the Realme 2 has also received a price hike. As for the 2 Pro, the company has confirmed that the phone will not get a price hike. Realme was created by Oppo as an online-only brand but the Realme phones are now available for purchase through offline channels in India, thanks to the company’s partnership with Reliance.

Xiaomi apologizes for misleading “Flash sale” ad when only 10 units were up for grabs

By

Nov 14, 2018

Xiaomi has just learned the importance of using the correct grammar when interfacing with English fans. The company recently officially made its online debut in the U.K with the launch of the Mi 8 Pro and a few other models. As a way of celebrating its new market and also to drum up patronage, the company rolled out a “flash sale” where the Mi 8 Lite and Mi A2 were offered for £1.

Interestingly, this was more or less a 10-unit giveaway but the fans had other ideas. Again, the company never disclosed the number of units that will be available for the “£1 flash sale”. So, some were left disappointed when the sales were concluded in a flash. Xiaomi at first offered three units of both phone models and then executed a follow-up with two units apiece. This brought the total units sold to 10.

Some fans took to Twitter to voice their anger over the immediate stock depletion, with one fan even going into the website code, revealing the page was programmed to show Out Of Stock once the Order button was clicked. Wilkin Lee, Sales and Marketing Director of Xiaomi UK clarified in a reply to a tweet that out of the thousands who clicked “Buy” simultaneously, the tie-breaker was done by random selection, even though the Terms & Conditions said winners would be selected on a first come, first serve basis. A complaint was even sent to UK’s regulator of advertising, the Advertising Standards Authority.

Apparently, the fans thought this was the usual flash sale with a sizable available stock. These misgivings have prompted the Chinese giant to issue an open apology. In an official statement, Xiaomi UK disclosed that the team “did not realize that the public associates this term (flash sale) with a very particular type of deal that Xiaomi has run in the past across different global markets, where more than 10 devices were available.”

Despite this hiccup, Xiaomi phones are now available in the UK via the company’s website as well as Carphone Warehouse, Three and other partners. In addition, Xiaomi will open its first Authorised bricks and mortar Mi Store on Sunday at Westfield London.

Global smart speaker shipments grew 197% in Q3 2018, Xiaomi takes the fifth position

Nov 14, 2018

A latest quarterly report from research firm Strategy Analytics shows that the global smart speaker shipments grew at an astonishing rate of 197 percent year-on-year, reaching a record 22.7 million units in the third quarter of 2018.

With such growth, it is on track to surpass 100 million units in use during the final quarter of this year. According to Canalys, the market grew 187 percent in Q2 2018, with shipments of 16.8 million units.

David Mercer, Vice President at Strategy Analytics, said:

The number of smart speakers in use globally will crash through the 100 million unit barrier this month and exceed 125 million by the end of the year. The market has reached this key milestone faster than pretty much any other consumer technology device to have launched over the past decade.

In Q3 2018, the category was led by Amazon with over 32 percent market share and 7.2 million shipments. The second position was grabbed by Google that holds around 23 percent market share and shipped 5.2 million units.

Alibaba ranks third with 9.5 percent market share and 2.2 million shipments. Another Chinese brand, Baidu, was the biggest mover in the quarter with an increase in its market share from 1 percent in Q2 2018 to 8 percent in Q3 2018 and 1.9 million shipments.

After Alibaba and Baidu, China-based Xiaomi stands fifth with 8.4 percent market and 1.9 million shipments — same as Baidu. This is a significant increase in shipments from Xiaomi as it reportedly shipped 0.1 million units in Q3 2017. Apple holds the sixth position with 4.8 percent market share and 1.1 million shipments.

China has emerged this year as the second largest market for smart speakers after the USA. Strategy Analytics is forecasting a twelve-fold annual increase in Chinese shipments for the year 2018. The North America market is still being dominated by Amazon and Google in this category.

From the report, it seems that the three Chinese companies — Alibaba, Baidu, and Xiaomi are in a three-way battle to get the pole position in the smart speakers market, with a heavy focus in the Chinese market which is mainly driven by low pricing and heavy discounting.

Huawei to release head-mounted AR glasses within the next two years

Nov 14, 2018

In order to deal with future prospects, Huawei is already working quite hard to bring AR, VR to their devices. Previously, they have added AI, AR in their latest flagship Mate 20 Pro. Although it seems Huawei doesn’t want to remain in just apps or smartphones market, they want to enter AR glasses market in the next couple of years. In an interview speaking to CNBC, Richard Yu, CEO of the company’s consumer group said that they are working on AR glasses and it would be ready for commercialization in the next few years.

On a broader perspective, Richard Yu confirmed that Huawei is working to bring AR experience to the next level by introducing wearable spectacles. It will directly resemble AR Google Glasses and Microsoft HoloLens giving a similar experience, but there will be a considerable advancement this time. Many new things have been refined over the past, and we hope Huawei to come up with more useful AR glasses.

Talking about it, Yu said, “With this AR, you can have AR glasses working with phone, maybe you can watch more of a large area.”

Richard Yu added that the AR would not see much use in the beginning but in future, you will see more value for it. It is the sole reason that Huawei has started to implement the new AR, VR techniques in its latest smartphones. Huawei wants users to become accustomed to it before scratching further into the AR.

Further, Yu Richard added that “In the beginning you may feel AR … is nothing. But in the future you will see more and more the value of that.”

Although, Facebook is also in works on AR glasses as last month Ficus Kirkpatrick has confirmed about the AR hardware product to TechCrunch.

Some experts over IDC expects 200,000 AR headset shipments this year, which will rise to 21 million in 2022. It means AR market is going to see a bump in the next few years. So, guys get ready for the next level of AR experience along with the 5G evolution.
