After intense research and analysis, the company behind the device has devised AI algorithms that can brush your teeth effectively, using the Bass method of brushing. All you have to do is keep the brush in your mouth and the babahu X1 takes care of everything else.

The brush head is made out of medical grade silica gel which is molded at around 300-degree Celsius. The head features 6D bristles which clean your teeth at a 45-degree angle. The second half of the device, i.e. the brush body features magnetic levitation sonic motor with a vibration frequency of 18000 – 40000 rpm. You can charge the brush using the wireless charging base, which takes up to 3 brush heads at a time. So, you can charge your entire family’s brush heads in one go.

Finland-based HMD Global is advertising and selling Nokia-branded smartphone since December 2016. Prior to that, Nokia was acquired by Microsoft in 2014. Before the acquisition, Nokia was reportedly working on tablets which didn’t see the light of the day.

While the company has launched one tablet so far — Nokia N1, the other tablets carrying codenames Illusionist, Mercury, Pine, and Vega/Atlas were canceled. Now a few videos have surfaced online revealing the prototype of Nokia ‘Vega’ tablet in action.

The video shows Nokia Vega tablet carrying model number RX-107. The tablet featured humongous bezels, especially comparing it with the current generation of tablets that focuses on slimmer bezels. Given that the tablet was to launch in 2014, we can look past those bezels.

As for the specifications, the Nokia Vega sports a 6.6-inch display and was powered by Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor. It packed 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage with support for memory expansion.

The device was running Windows RT operation system, which was a mobile operating system developed by Microsoft. It was an edition of Windows 8.X build for the 32-bit ARM processor-based devices. The ‘Vega’ tablet also featured an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera and a 1-megapixel front-facing snapper.

Currently, HMD Global has no plans of launching tablet devices. The Finnish company is currently focused on smartphones and seems like it is aiming to grab market share in the mid-range segment. Apart from launching new phones, the company also launched refreshed versions of some of its iconic older feature phones such as the Nokia 3310 4G and Nokia 8810 4G.

Nokia’s latest entry-level offering, the Nokia 3.1 Plus is finally official in China. The phone was launched in India back in October and nearly after a month of its release, the phone finally reaches its neighbor. Specs remain unchanged on the new model, so what we are basically interested in is its price tag.

The Nokia 3.1 Plus is priced at 1099 Yuan ($158.6) which is quite close to the Indian pricing for the 3 + 32GB variant. The company is clearly looking for entry-level buyers with this positioning. The hardware inside the phone is pretty decent for its pricing. The phone features the octa-core Helio P22 chipset with MG PowerVR GE8320 GPU and a large 3500mAh battery. With the 6-inch HD+ display on board, you can easily expect more than a day’s usage on the device on a single charge.

The new Nokia model isn’t bad in the camera department as well. The phone features a 13MP f/2.0 aperture sensor at the back paired with a 5MP f/2.4 aperture sensor for good quality bokeh images. Note that users will be able to refocus their shots even after they are taken. On the front, there’s an 8MP shooter to take care of your selfie needs.

The Nokia 3.1 Plus comes in two colors, for now, White and Navy Blue.

On paper, the phone turns out to be quite well balanced. Further, you get the traditional 18:9 display design without a notch, which is a good alternative to the notch filled phones in the market lately.

It’s worth noting that for a couple of hundred Yuan (~$30) more, you get better devices like the new Honor 10 Lite with Kirin 710, Full HD+ display and 3400mAh battery. So, it’ll be interesting to see whether the phone manages to do well in the Chinese market.
