Mar 24, 2025

Samsung Electronics unveiled a bunch of cutting edge gaming monitors and monitors during the CES 2025 event earlier this month. These included the new Odyssey OLED and 3D gaming monitors. Now, these have officially been launched in the global market with pre-orders kicking off in select countries today (24th March 2025), so here’s everything you need to know.

Odyssey 3D

The South Korean tech giant is expanding its monitor lineup with new 2025 models with the first on the list being the Odyssey 3D (G90XF). It is a 27-inch monitor with a unique feature that allows it to offer a 3D experience without requiring glasses. The monitor uses advanced eye tracking tech and a lenticular lens that simulates the 3D image experience. So the gaming monitor can offer a more immersive experience while gaming or watching videos.

To showcase this tech, Samsung is even collaborating with Nexon’s The First Berserker: Khazan, Neowiz’s Lies of P and its upcoming Overture DLC. The monitor uses AI video conversion, offers 4K resolution, a 165Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, FreeSync, and G-Sync support as well.

Odyssey OLED G8

The 2025 Odyssey lineup also includes a refreshed Odyssey OLED G8 model. The G81SF arrives in either a 27-inch or 32-inch variant, which offers 4K resolution along with a 240Hz refresh rate. Both sizes use a QD-OLED panel that is also VESA DisplayHDR TrueBlack 400 certified.

The panel also has UL certified Glare Free tech for reduced reflections and Samsung’s OLED Safeguard+ that includes a Dynamic Cooling system with a Pulsating Heat Pipe for improved heat dissipation. Other notable features include 0.03ms response time, a 240Hz refresh rate, FreeSync Premium Pro and G-Sync support. The Odyssey OLED G8 features a slim metal design with Core Lighting+ and an ergonomic stand for an easy setup.

Odyssey G9

The Odyssey G9 (G91F) was unveiled with a tall 49-inch ultrawide monitor that offers a Dual QHD display with a 1000R curve. Along with the wide view and high resolution, the Odyssey G9 has a 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms response time, and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro as well. You also get VES DisplayHDR 600 and HDR10+ Gaming as well. With such a large screen real estate, Samsung offers great multitasking with Picture-by-Picture and Picture-in-Picture modes.

ViewFinity S8

Last but not least, we have the Samsung ViewFinity S8 (S80UD), which is the only non-gaming monitor on this list. It is a monitor built for professionals that sports a tall 37-inch monitor with 4K resolution, 16:9 aspect ratio, HDR10 and 1 billion colors for creative professionals. There is also a TÜV Rheinland certification for eye protection and comfort as well. Other notable features include a 90W USB-C port, KVM switch, and more.

Unfortunately, the exact pricing details are still at large, so stick around for more.

Galaxy S23 will miss out on these One UI 7 Galaxy AI features

Mar 24, 2025

The Galaxy S23 series received the One UI 7 beta earlier this month, but it didn’t bring all Galaxy AI features from the Galaxy S25 series. Since it was a beta release, many assumed Samsung might include those missing features in the stable release. However, Samsung has now confirmed which Galaxy AI features won’t be coming to the Galaxy S23 series with the One UI 7 update.

Samsung won’t bring Audio Eraser and Natural Language Search to the Galaxy S23 series with the One UI 7 update. Not just the Galaxy S23, but dozens of other Galaxy devices will also miss out on these Galaxy AI features, as they are reserved for the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and the Galaxy Tab S10 series.

The Audio Eraser feature helps users remove unwanted sound from videos. It can identify up to six types of sounds in a video, which the user can decrease or increase to achieve the desired output. For example, you can lower or remove the voices of people in the background and enhance yours for a better listening experience.

The Natural Language Search feature makes life easier by allowing users to use everyday language to find settings or perform actions. This means you no longer need to remember the exact setting names. The feature works with the Settings and Gallery. For example, if you search “my eyes are feeling tired” in Settings, it will suggest options like adjusting brightness or enabling Eye Comfort Shield.

While these two AI features are confirmed to be missing from the Galaxy S23 series with the One UI 7 update, there could be one more — Now Brief.

In an interview, Sally Jeong, EVP and Head of Framework R&D at Samsung MX, stated that “AI features that utilize on-device processing, such as the personal data engine, really require advanced chipsets and hardware like those found on the Galaxy S25 series with Snapdragon 8 Elite.” She also mentioned that cloud-based AI features, such as Circle to Search, are easier to roll out to a wide range of Galaxy devices. However, for deeper on-device AI experiences, powerful hardware is required. Since Now Brief relies on the personal data engine, it may not come to many Galaxy devices with the One UI 7 update, and the Galaxy S23 could be among them.

Despite missing out on some Galaxy AI features, the One UI 7 update still has plenty to offer for the Galaxy S23 series. It will bring new icons, a UI redesign, new animations, a vertical app drawer, extensive customizations, smoother animations, Writing Assist, Drawing Assist, and more. We’ll know everything once One UI 7 rolls out to the Galaxy S23 models sometime in April.

Redmi A5 4G Specs, Price, and Renders Leak for European Market

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

Mar 24, 2025

Redmi’s budget-friendly A5 4G has quietly gone on sale in Bangladesh last week before any official announcement. Now, it looks like the device will be making its way to Europe as well. A tipster has leaked high-quality renders of the phone, along with its full specifications and pricing for the European market.

Redmi A5 4G Specifications

At first glance, the Redmi A5 4G fits squarely into the budget segment, but it does bring some notable features for its price. It sports a 6.88-inch LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate and an unusually high peak brightness of 1500 nits—something rarely seen at this price point. However, with a resolution of 1640 x 720, it’s still on the lower end.

Powering the device is the Unisoc T7250 chipset, an entry-level processor that should handle basic tasks but likely won’t offer much beyond that. It’s paired with LPDDR4X RAM and eMMC 5.1 storage—another cost-cutting choice that could impact app loading times.

The camera setup includes a 32MP main sensor and an 8MP front camera, which is an upgrade in resolution compared to most budget phones, though actual image quality will depend on the software processing. On the battery side, the A5 4G houses a 5200mAh battery with 18W charging, which should comfortably last a full day or more.

The phone runs Android 15 (Go Edition), a lightweight version of Android meant for lower-end hardware. Other features include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, Bluetooth 5.2, USB-C, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a microSD slot supporting up to 2TB of storage.

In Europe, the Redmi A5 4G is expected to launch at EUR 149 for the 4GB+128GB variant. While there’s no official word on availability yet, given its early release in Bangladesh, an announcement for Europe and other regions might not be far off.

Vivo X Fold 4 tipped to feature Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip

By

Mar 24, 2025

A recent leak cast doubt on the existence of the Vivo X Fold 4 / 4 Pro (or whatever the company may call it) after tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS) stated that the only remaining Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered foldable this year is the Honor Magic V4. This led to speculation that the Vivo X Fold 4, which was previously expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite, might have been cancelled or could launch with a different chipset. Now, in a new revelation, DCS has seemingly confirmed that the X Fold 4 will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which debuted in 2023.

Vivo X Fold 4 key specifications (rumored)

Vivo X Fold 4 to feature Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

The latest leak suggests that Vivo’s upcoming foldable will be an ultra-light and thin device featuring a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera and support for wireless charging. It is also tipped to house a large 6,000mAh battery and feature an IPX8 water resistance rating.

The other major change on the X Fold 4 will be the inclusion of a side-facing fingerprint scanner instead of an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. The leak describes it as a “popularization” model, implying that Vivo may be positioning it as a more affordable book-style foldable compared to its predecessors.

DCS hinted at the reason behind this chipset choice by stating, “The price of Snapdragon 8E is +1000, are you willing to buy it?” This suggests that the Snapdragon 8 Elite would significantly increase the cost of the device, making it less appealing to consumers. By opting for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Vivo can keep costs lower while still offering flagship-level performance.

Leaked specifications indicate that the Vivo X Fold 4 will feature a large, high-refresh-rate AMOLED display with minimal bezels. The device is expected to sport a sophisticated hinge mechanism to reduce the crease and improve durability.

Its camera setup will likely include a primary 50-megapixel sensor, a periscope telephoto lens for enhanced zoom capabilities, and an ultra-wide sensor. Additionally, the X Fold 4 is expected to support fast wired and wireless charging, ensuring all-day usability. As per reports, the device may launch in June this year in China.

The phone has an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance. Other features include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, stereo speakers, and NFC support for contactless payments. Weighing 200 grams and measuring 7.7mm in thickness, the phone remains relatively slim given its battery size.

It is available in Awesome Black, Mint, White, and Peach through Flipkart, Samsung’s official website, and offline stores.

Mar 24, 2025

Xiaomi has officially announced the MIJIA Smart Audio Glasses 2, confirming its launch through Xiaomi Youpin. The crowdfunding campaign is set to begin on March 26 at 10 AM, with a special price of 999 Yuan (~$140). The announcement follows recent speculation about Xiaomi’s AI-powered smart glasses, which are expected to compete with Meta’s Ray-Ban collaboration.

Xiaomi Mijia Smart Audio Glasses 2 key features

Successor to last year’s model, the Mijia Smart Audio Glasses 2 brings notable design refinements, making them sleeker and more comfortable to wear. The updated frame is slimmer, with the temple arms measuring just 5mm in thickness—26% thinner at the narrowest point and 30 percent thinner at the widest. Weighing only 27.6g, the glasses now distribute weight more evenly to reduce pressure on the nose, ensuring prolonged comfort.

The frame features an advanced “piano steel ultra-flexible hinge,” developed over 12 months, providing durability even after 15,000 bends. Additionally, the glasses introduce a second-generation quick-release mechanism, with a 70 percent smaller hinge design, allowing single-handed lens swapping. The frame options include five styles: metal aviator, hybrid browline, classic Boston, hybrid aviator, and deep-space titanium.

Audio performance has been upgraded with an optimized acoustic structure, offering improved volume and noise reduction. A four-microphone array with intelligent algorithms enhances call clarity, while a new privacy mode significantly reduces sound leakage through a combination of inverse sound waves and anti-leakage membranes. Users can activate this feature directly through the Mijia Glasses app.

A long press on the temple activates one-touch recording, enabling instant voice notes without needing a phone. To address privacy concerns, a notification light turns on whenever the recording is active. The glasses also offer IP54 dust and water resistance, voice assistant support, and real-time audio broadcasting.

Battery performance is also impressive, delivering up to 12 hours of music playback, 9 hours of talk time, and 12 days of standby. The 2C magnetic charging technology enables a full charge in just one hour, while a 10-minute charge provides four hours of listening time.

New Leak Accidentally Confirms Google Tensor G5’s Switch to Imagination GPU

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

Mar 24, 2025

Google’s upcoming Tensor G5 chipset looks set to bring some of the biggest changes to the company’s in-house silicon yet.

Previous reports have suggested that the processor will move away from Samsung’s foundries and opt for TSMC’s advanced 3nm manufacturing process. But fabrication is not the only area seeing a shake-up. Google might also be switching GPU providers entirely.

A now-deleted document from a RISC-V Day Tokyo conference last month briefly listed Tensor G5 among chips set to use Imagination Technologies’ GPUs. A postgraduate researcher shared the document, which was later amplified by Imagination on WeChat, adding weight to the claim.

If accurate, it would mark a shift away from the Arm Mali GPUs Google has used in previous Tensor chips.

Tensor G5 with Imagination GPU

The specific GPU in question is said to be the DXT-48-1536, a modern graphics processor that supports features like ray tracing—something the Mali-G715 in the Tensor G3 and G4 lacks.

This could bring improvements in rendering performance, making Tensor-powered Pixel devices more competitive in gaming and graphics-heavy applications.

Beyond the GPU, the Tensor G5 is expected to incorporate several fully custom components, including a new image signal processor (ISP). Google’s past Tensor chips have relied on modified Samsung ISPs with custom tweaks, but the G5 could introduce a more independent solution.

Additionally, the chipset is rumored to feature a custom memory controller, system-level cache, and power management modules. For connectivity and storage, Google will still rely on third-party solutions for USB, PCIe, display interfaces, and LPDDR5x memory.

Interestingly, the same document that mentioned the Tensor G5 also referenced a custom Xiaomi chipset called “XuanJie,” which is said to feature an Imagination GPU.

Xiaomi has reportedly been developing its own chips as well, and this one is believed to be based on a 3nm process. Details are still scarce, though, so we’ll have to wait and see what Xiaomi has in store.

The iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro has appeared in China’s 3C certification (model V2453A), confirming support for 120W wired fast charging—the fastest in the Z-series so far. The device also previously surfaced on Geekbench, suggesting it will feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8s Elite processor, Android 15, 12GB RAM, and an Adreno 825 GPU, positioning it as a performance-focused mid-range option.

iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro 3C certification spotted by TheTechOutlook

The Z10 Turbo Pro is expected to include a 7,000mAh battery, slightly smaller than the standard Z10’s 7,600mAh capacity but with significantly faster charging. Earlier leaks indicated a 90W charger for some Z10 models, but the Pro variant’s 120W capability aligns it with iQOO’s flagship 13 series.

According to tipster Digital Chat Station, the Z10 Turbo Pro will feature a 6.78-inch 1.5K display with LTPS backlighting, a plastic mid-frame, and an optical fingerprint sensor—design choices that help manage costs. It follows the Z9 Turbo, which had a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip and a 6,000mAh battery.

The standard Z10 5G is set to launch in India on April 11, 2025, while the Turbo variant (V2452A) and Z10x 5G have also received certifications. It is currently unknown if the brand plans to launch the Z10 Turbo Pro model outside of China.

Sony Xperia 10 VII Leak: Will Finally Get a 120Hz OLED Display

Sony will expand its Xperia lineup in 2025 with the Xperia 10 VII, according to leaks from reliable Esato forum tipster spektykles. The mid-range device will introduce key upgrades, including a 120Hz OLED display—the first in the Xperia 10 series.

The Xperia 10 VI, released in May 2024, has a 60Hz OLED panel with a 120Hz touch-scanning rate and Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 powering it. For the Xperia 10 VII, Sony is expected to use a different chipset, with speculation pointing to the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 (introduced in June 2024) rather than the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 (expected in February 2025) as a cost-saving measure. Built on a 6nm process, the 6s Gen 3 offers a 15% faster CPU and improved AI capabilities compared to its predecessor, according to Qualcomm’s benchmarks. The Xperia 10 VI launched at €399 ($430), and the Xperia 10 VII is expected to be priced similarly.

Sony’s smartphone division has reduced global shipments by 40% from 2020 to 2023, according to Counterpoint Research. The company is focusing on refining its mid-range lineup to retain existing customers and attract buyers looking for compact, multimedia-focused devices. A launch date has not been confirmed, but given the Xperia 10 VI’s May 2024 release, a similar timeframe is likely.

In other news, Sony is developing 100MP and 200MP smartphone sensors. According to Digital Chat Station, the 100MP sensor is expected to be widely adopted by Chinese OEMs in Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 and Dimensity 9500-powered flagships launching later this year. Sony’s 200MP sensor, reportedly larger than Samsung’s 200MP ISOCELL sensors, may be used in one of its own devices and sold to other manufacturers.

Acer has introduced the 2025 Go Air, an ultra-thin notebook designed for professionals seeking a Windows alternative to the MacBook Air. Weighing just 999 grams and offering up to 12 hours of battery life, it balances portability with reliable performance. The laptop is powered by Intel’s latest Core 200H processors and features a 14-inch 2.2K display.

The laptop has a 14-inch IPS matte screen that offers a 2240 × 1400 resolution, full sRGB color coverage, and DC dimming to reduce eye strain. With a 16:10 aspect ratio and an 88% screen-to-body ratio, it’s built for productivity, while the 180-degree hinge makes it easier to share your screen. Acer also highlights the anti-glare panel as a key feature for comfortable indoor and outdoor use.

Under the hood, the Go Air comes with 32GB of LPDDR5 RAM and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD. It runs on either the Core 5 210H (with four performance cores) or the Core 7 240H (with six performance cores), both cooled by dual 6mm heat pipes and large fans. Despite its slim design, it still includes three Type-C ports (one data-only, one fully functional), HDMI 2.0, USB-A, and a headphone jack—more connectivity than most ultraportables.

The Go Air starts at 5,299 yuan ($730) for the Core 5 model and 5,699 yuan ($785) for the Core 7. It’s positioned as a premium mid-range option, with a 60Wh battery and Wi-Fi 6 support rounding out the package.
