The OPPO F9 Pro isn’t Flipkart exclusive – now available on various channels

Aug 31, 2018

OPPO launched the F9 Pro last week in India, and it officially went on sale for the first time today. The device was immediately up for preorder after the launch and that was exclusively on Flipkart. However, the open sales of the OPPO F9 Pro have commenced in India and it is available not just on Flipkart, but also it can be purchased from various retailers such as Amazon India, and PayTM Mall.

This is quite different from the sales pattern we see lately where a new release is only available from one retailer. The phone is available for INR 23,990 ($338) on all platforms since there is only a 6GB + 64GB model. Also, you get the options of Sunrise Red and Twilight Blue colour variants.

As a reminder, F9 Pro is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio P60 SoC running at a maximum frequency of 2.0 GHz. The device come with 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage expandable with a micro SD up to 256 GB.

Aug 31, 2018

Since the Huawei P20 Pro was announced in March this year, the device has had a rollercoaster ride in terms of sales. The figures have been streaming in, enabling the company to coast past Apple to emerge as the second largest smartphone vendor globally. That is because the P20 Pro came out as Huawei’s best smartphones to date. Four months after, the company has refreshed the model with four new attractive colour options. The new colour variants were showcased at IFA 2018. We bring you the colour options, thanks to GSMArena.

Two of the four new colours come with a cool leather texture. There is an Elegant Black as well as a Gold Brown variant which is manufactured using a plastic/polycarbonate back panel wrapped with genuine Italian calfskin. The Huawei logo, as well as the Leica badge, are embossed on the back.

The third colour option is a Pearl White variant similar to the White variant of the Honor 10. The variant utilises a glass back which is covered by Gorilla Glass. Finally, the fourth colour variant looks very much to the Twilight aurora variant of the P20 Pro but this one is called Morphon Aurora and it has a more violet hue instead of an aquamarine-greenish hue. There is absolutely no change in the front panel of all four colour options.

[envira-gallery id=”209267″]

The internals of the new Huawei P20 Pro variants still retains a Kirin 970 chipset at the driving seat. The glass variants are available in 6GB+128GB memory while the leather variants come in a new 8GB+256GB memory. All other specs remain the same. As for the price, the Glass variants will retail for €899, while the leather variants sell for €999 and that is because of the higher storage rather than the leather back. Huawei will make all versions available in Europe via major offline and online retailers from September 5.

Xiaomi aromatherapy car air freshener launched for 59 yuan ($8)

Aug 31, 2018

Xiaomi continues to churn out products under its Youpin platform, formerly Mijia platform. All the products under the Youpin platform are manufactured by third-party companies who are part of the Xiaomi ecosystem. The Chinese company has just launched a new product on its website and it is a third-party manufactured car air freshener that can be mounted on the car air vent.

The product is manufactured by one of Xiaomi’s eco-chain company known as Shanghai Shuo Mi Technology Co., Ltd. The startup mainly produces smartphone cases and data cables. The car air vent aromatherapy gets its fragrance from plant extract which means it is safe for use by everyone, including pregnant women and babies. It uses a safe botanical extract and a proportion of solid aroma sticks. The additives are non-alcoholic, natural, safe and healthy. You can even control the concentration of the fragrance.

The gadget is shaped like a small barrel and has a hook with which it is attached to the car air vent in a horizontal alignment. The barrel has a switch at the front which allows the fragrance to be controlled. The barrel is made from aluminium with a matte finish and is less than 9cm long. It feels comfortable to hold and has a switch at the front which apart from controlling the fragrance level, is used to open and shut off the fragrance.

The internal aromatherapy core is detachable and you get three flavours to choose from. The three core fragrance are lemon, orange and olive. The product is presently available for 59 yuan ($8) and it comes in Black and Silver colours.

Live photos and specs reveal the Pixel 3 may be the preferred model this year

Aug 31, 2018

Ever since Google launched the Pixel line, it has always released two smartphones. This year will be no different. There will be the Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL. However, the former has sort of been in hiding until today.

A redditor has posted hands-on images of the smaller 3rd generation Pixel and we think this may be the preferred model when Google officially announces the two phones.

The first thing you notice about the Pixel 3 is the display. Gone are the extra thick bezels of the Pixel 2. It now rocks an 18:9 display which thankfully doesn’t have a notch like that of the Pixel 3 XL. Although the bezels are not the smallest we have seen on phones with notch-less 18:9 displays.

[envira-gallery id=”209252″]

The display is said to be 5.5-inches with a 2160 x 1080 resolution. The Pixel 3 also has stereo front-facing cameras just like its predecessor and will come with dual front-facing cameras (both are 8MP).

The back of the phone is different too. It still has a dual-tone finish but the whole length of the back is covered in glass – glossy glass at the top (camera area) and frosted glass at the bottom. There is a single camera on the rear just like that of the Pixel 3 XL and a fingerprint scanner too. Another image shows that the power button and volume rocker are on the right-hand side.

[envira-gallery id=”209256″]

The Pixel 3 will come with a Snapdragon 845 processor with 4GB of RAM. It will also have a 2915mAh battery as shown in one of the images. Since the Pixel 3 has a full-glass back we believe it will also support wireless charging.

Meizu M8 hits TENAA: packs HD+ display and dual cameras

Aug 31, 2018

A few days ago, the Meizu M8 Lite was seen on TENAA. Now the Meizu M8 has appeared on the agency’s website. The M8 has similar specs as the M8 Lite but has a more powerful processor and dual rear cameras.

[envira-gallery id=”209241″]

The Meizu M8 has model number M813Q. It sports a 5.7-inch HD+ display which doesn’t have a notch. It is powered by a 2.0GHz octa-core processor which we think might be the Helio P60. There is 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. Users will be able to add up to an extra 128GB of storage via a MicroSD card slot.

There are dual cameras on the back of the device in a 12MP + 5MP configuration and above the display is a 5MP front-facing camera. Below the rear cameras is a fingerprint scanner.

The phone runs Android 8.1 Oreo and packs a 3,000mAh battery. It measures 147.58 × 72.76 × 8.1 (mm) and weighs 159 grams. When it launches it will come in black, gold, and silver.

Now that both the Meizu M8 and M8 Lite have been certified, we expect Meizu to announce a release date.

Aug 31, 2018

iVoomi has created a new sub-brand named Innelo, has been teasing a new smartphone launch on social media. Now, the company has finally revealed that it’ll soon launch a new smartphone that will be exclusively available on Amazon India.

The mention of ‘17 years of Legacy’ by the company suggests that Innelo could be the sub-brand of iVoomi’s parent company –Suntex. With a new brand in the Indian market, the company could be looking to target a different set audience.

The company describes itself as a premium electronics brand born out of the drive to create technology for the global citizens of today. It says that Innelo is committed to providing premium smart technology to millennials and offering lifestyle experiences focused on international style and innovative technology.

Suntex, the newly created brand’s parent company claims to have a presence in 21 countries, sold over 100 million devices, and a 500+ network of partners for after-sales support.

Innelo has already teased that the device will have a sleek design and will be available in multiple color options. A recent teaser image suggests that the smartphone will come with a notched display, as it the trend nowadays. However, no more information is known about the upcoming smartphone.

While the company has not revealed the launch date, we expect to phone to get launched in India in a couple of weeks, carrying a competitive price tag.

Qualcomm wants the audio jack to go, announces aptX Adaptive for wireless audio

Aug 31, 2018

More and more manufacturers are removing the audio jack from their phones. Although Qualcomm isn’t a phone manufacturer, it also wants the audio jack to go. Today, the chipset manufacturer announced a new codec called aptX Adaptive for improved audio for wireless devices.

Qualcomm says there is an increase in demand for hi-res wireless audio and its new codec is designed to provide that. Unlike some other audio codecs that only works when listening to music, aptX Adaptive automatically adjusts and “provide optimum audio quality” based on content. So it doesn’t matter if you are playing games, streaming music, or watching a movie, with aptX Adaptive, you get high-quality audio. Latency is also low.

The codec is backward compatible with aptX and aptX HD, has a compression ratio of between 5:1 – 10:1, and supports 24-bit 48kHZ audio formats.

Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro will launch on October 16 in London

By

-

Aug 31, 2018

The Mate 10 series have been pretty successful since their launch last year. Huawei’s CEO revealed they have sold over 10 million units since they went on sale. However, the series will have to make way for a successor soon. The Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro will succeed the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro and Huawei has revealed the launch date and venue.

For the launch of the Mate 20 duo, Huawei is heading to London on the 16th of October. While the location is different, the date is exactly a year from the launch of the Mate 10 series. It has become a sort of tradition for Huawei to launch its flagship phones in Europe and we don’t think that will be changing soon.

There is a lot to be excited about with respect to the Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro. Both phones will be the first powered by the newly announced Kirin 980, the world’s first 7nm processor. Actually, we expect a third device – a Porsche Design edition will also come with the chipset.

Specs of the Mate 20 leaked a few weeks ago. It will come with a 6.3-inch AMOLED screen with a water-drop notch and a 2244 x 1080 resolution. There will be three cameras on the rear like that of the Huawei P20 Pro but they will have a different arrangement.

Lenovo Slider Phone teased officially by company’s VP Chang Cheng

By

-

Aug 31, 2018

Each time Lenovo‘s VP Chang Cheng pop into the news, what comes to mind is his penchant for overhyping the company’s phones. We can’t forget in a hurry how we expected a Lamborghini looking flagship in the Lenovo Z5 but ended up getting a different thing. The Z5 wasn’t in anyway a disappointment for a mid-ranger and that was what pacified fans. Mr Cheng is in the news again, this time around he has teased what looks like a Lenovo concept phone with a slider design similar to that we just saw on the Honor Magic 2.

Now, this isn’t the first time the CEO is releasing teasers based on what is trending. Recall that when Smartisan released the Nut R1 with a 1TB storage version, Cheng disclosed that the Lenovo Z5 will come with a 4TB storage version or so we thought. That turned out to be a 4TB Particle Cloud Storage. We even did a compilation of Mr Cheng’s Z5 lies which you can read here.

Notwithstanding the Z5 PR blunder, Lenovo still remains an innovative company and this design may indeed become a reality on the company’s next flagship. The design looks attractive as the removal of the front camera and earpiece leaves the front completely bezel-less. The prospect of a notch-less, bezel-less display sounds interesting but don’t expect the bezels to be as thin as seen in the video. The video also suggests the Lenovo model will come with an on-screen fingerprint sensor. We can’t say when this one will be launched but we expect to get more details in the coming days. There you have it, OPPO Find X seems to be winning the NEX by Vivo as more OEMs seem to be going for the Find X-styled slider design. Anyway, Meizu’s CEO thinks neither the notch design nor the slider design is the future of smartphone designs. We have a feeling he may right. This design isn’t looking like one that will be around for long.

Kirin 980 is official: World’s first 7nm chipset with two dedicated NPUs

Aug 31, 2018

Huawei has unveiled its most powerful processor at the on-going IFA Berlin tech show. The Hisilicon Kirin 980 was officially unveiled a short while ago and is the world’s first 7nm chipset.

The Kirin 980 is not only the first 7nm processor in the world, it is also the first chipset with the new Cortex-A76 CPU cores; the first chipset with a dual-NPU; the first with the Mali-G76 GPU, the first with a Cat. 21 LTE modem, and the first chipset to support 2133MHz LPDDR4X. That’s so many firsts!

The Kirin 980 has 8 cores in a tri-cluster arrangement (2+2+4). The four Cortex-A76 cores are separated into two – one set is clocked at 2.6GHz while the other is clocked at 2.2GHz. The former takes on high demanding short-term tasks while the latter handles high-demanding long-term tasks. The power-saving Cortex-A55 cores are clocked at 1.8GHz and handle simple everyday tasks. Huawei says it uses a flex-scheduling system which distributes tasks among the cores.

Kirin 980 vs SD845 — Kirin 980 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 845

The GPU is the Mali G76 MP10 and it has a clock speed of 720MHz. Huawei says it brings a 48% increase in terms of performance and a 178% increase in power management. There is also a special boost mode called clock-boosting technology for when more graphics power is needed.

Nubia Z18 launch invite is a nice crystal ball teasing the “boundless” bezel-less screen

Aug 31, 2018

Nubia recently announced that it would be launching the flagship Nubia Z18 in China on September 5. The company did send out invitations and to do that it deployed an interesting paraphernalia which is a crystal ball that isn’t just attractive but is a teaser on its own. It teases the bezel-less display which will be the main attraction of the Z18.

Crystal balls are always nice and a beauty to behold, we all love them. This one isn’t any different as it can light up and even plays music. It has a separate wooden stand on which it rests. The crystal ball is a depiction of the Z18’s slogan- “Exploration without boundaries”. This is closely related to the bezel-less display the Nubia phone is expected to pack. The Nubia Z series is known for ultra-thin bezels and the Z18 will take that even further. Previously, leaked photos of the device had surfaced, pointing to the presence of a water drop notch display just like the OPPO R17 et al.

The Nubia Z18 had also been certified by TENAA and the listing shows the flagship will pack a 5.99-inch FHD+ screen with a 1080 x 2160 resolution. The device will be powered by a Snapdragon 845 processor with 6GB of RAM on the base model and 8GB of RAM on the high-end version. For storage, there will be 64GB and 128GB versions respectively. As far as the cameras go, the Nubia Z18 will feature a 24MP + 8MP dual combo on the rear while an 8MP sits within the water drop notch above the display. The device is also expected to come equipped with a rear fingerprint sensor as well as a 3,500mAh battery.

Aug 31, 2018

The Huawei P20 Pro comes in four different color variants – Twilight, Black, Midnight Blue, and Pink Gold. Huawei will be announcing four more at the on-going IFA Berlin show. Photos of these new color variants have surfaced online ahead of the official announcement.

The photos were posted on Twitter by Roland Quandt, though it seems they were first posted on the web by CNET but the page has been taken down. According to the tweet, Huawei is releasing four new color variants, two of which have a leather back.

[envira-gallery id=”209172″]

There are two new color gradients like the Twilight variant. One is a mix of blue, purple and green and the other appears to have the same color gradient as the Lily White Honor 10 GT. The leather versions come in Yellow Leather and Black Leather variants. The former has a gold frame while the latter has a silver aluminum frame.

There is no info on the price of these new variants and availability at the moment. We believe that will be announced at Huawei’s press conference later today.

The Huawei P20 Pro has a 6.1-inch display with a 1080 x 2240 resolution. It has an 18.7:9 aspect ratio thanks to the notch in the display. Powered by the Kirin 970, it has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.

The phone’s main selling point is its triple rear cameras which put it at the top of the list of phone’s with the best camera performance. The three sensors are a combination of a 40MP f/1.8 sensor, a 20MP f/1.6 sensor, and an 8MP f/2.4 sensor with 3x optical zoom. There is also a 24MP sensor in front for selfies.

Through a press release, Xiaomi has declared that it won’t be storing user data of its Indian users outside the country. It is now in the process of migrating the user data to secure cloud platforms such Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure locally in India. The company has also confirmed that the migration process will finish by the end of this year.

The Chinese manufacturer will be migrating user data of Indian users across various Xiaomi services and products like Mi Cloud, Mi TV, MIUI (Xiaomi Market, feed, Mi Video advertising, Mi Messaging, push notifications, etc) Mi Community (in.c.mi.com) and Xiaomi’s e-commerce store (mi.com/in) on the local cloud servers in India. Prior to this, the Indian user data was stored on cloud servers in Singapore and the U.S.

The company has been storing all the new user data of Indian users since July 1 on its local servers. It is aiming to finish the migration process of mi.com/in user data by the next month. Now that the user data will be available on local servers, Indian users will be able to enjoy better access speed.

Last year, the Government of India had instructed around many smartphone makers from China to declare the procedures and processes that they were using to securing the Indian user data. In September 2017, Xiaomi confirmed that it will be shifting its servers in India in future. And today comes the confirmation from the company that it will soon finish the Indian user data migration to local servers.

The IDC survey reports have revealed that Xiaomi has been leading the Indian phone market since the past four consecutive quarters from Q3 2017 to Q2 2018. As of Q2 2018, the company is holding an impressive market share of 29.7 percent. In the same quarter, Xiaomi became the first phone manufacturer to ship around 10 million units within a single quarter.
