Vivo T3 Ultra launching this month, key details leaked

Vivo is reportedly planning to expand its T3 lineup, which already includes models, such as the Vivo T3 Lite 5G, Vivo T3x 5G, the Vivo T3 5G, and the Vivo T3 Pro 5G. Rumor has it that the brand is preparing to introduce the Vivo T3 Ultra in India. A report by 91mobiles has revealed a plethora of details about the Ultra variant.

Vivo T3 Ultra specifications (rumored)

Vivo T3 Pro 5G
Vivo T3 Pro 5G

According to the report, the Vivo T3 Ultra will come equipped with the Dimensity 9200 Plus chipset. With an AnTuTu score of around 160K+, the Ultra is expected to be more powerful than the Vivo T3 Pro, which features the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3. Given that the Pro model starts at Rs 24,999 (~$300), it is likely that the Ultra variant will cost approximately Rs 30,000 (~$360).

The report further states that the T3 Ultra will have an IP68-rated body and a curved-edge AMOLED panel with a 1.5K resolution and 4500nits of peak brightness. On the back, there will be an OIS-enabled Sony IMX921 primary camera.

Furthermore, the device with model number V2426 has appeared on Geekbench. Apart from revealing the inclusion of the D9200+ chip, it also mentions that the device has 12 GB of RAM and Android 14.

Interestingly, these specifications are also available on the Vivo V40 Pro. What seems likely is that the T3 Ultra may not have Zeiss optics, which are available on the photography-focused V40 Pro.

The report claims that the Vivo T3 Ultra will debut in early September. However, since the month has already started, this seems unlikely. It is more probable that the device will be teased for about a week before its official debut.

Tap-to-Pay comes to Boat Smartwatches through Mastercard partnership

Indian audio wearables brand Boat has partnered with multinational payment card services corporation Mastercard to enable contactless payments on its smartwatch devices. This collaboration aims to provide users with a more convenient and secure way to make transactions.

boAt Wave Spectra

Integration with contactless payments on boAt smartwatches will allow Mastercard cardholders to proceed with seamless transactions through their wearable device. Through Crest Pay, the official app of boAt, users can now tokenize their existing debit and credit cards from associated Mastercard banks in an effortless manner. Thus, they can simply tap and pay at all merchants where this facility is available, without requiring physical cards.

Boat and Mastercard partnership

It has contactless payment technology for Rs. 5,000 without a PIN, and the feature is great for everyday purchases.

Initially, the contactless payment feature will be available to Mastercard cardholders from select leading banks in India. However, Mastercard and boAt have plans to expand the availability of this feature to additional banks over time.

Google Play Store now lets you update or install multiple apps at the same time

Google has finally introduced a long-awaited feature to the Play Store: the ability to download and update multiple Android apps simultaneously. This significant improvement will save users considerable time, especially when setting up new devices or restoring from backups.

Google-Play-Store

Previously, the Play Store could only handle one app installation or update at a time. This often resulted in frustrating delays, particularly when dealing with a large number of pending updates. With the new feature, users can now experience significantly faster app installations and updates.

Google Play Store Multiple Apps Download Update

While the exact number of simultaneous downloads and updates may vary depending on factors like network speed and device performance, users who have got it have confirmed that at least three apps can be processed concurrently. This is a significant step forward compared to the single-app limitation that has been in place for many years.

1. How does it work?

When you attempt to update all your apps, the Play Store will prioritize three of them for immediate download and installation. The remaining apps will be placed in a “Pending” state and will be processed as soon as the initial three are complete.

2. Is it available on all devices?

The simultaneous app download feature is currently being rolled out gradually to Android users worldwide. While not everyone will have access to it immediately, it is expected to become available to a wider audience in the coming weeks.

3. What does this mean for Android users?

The ability to download and update multiple apps simultaneously is a welcome addition to the Play Store. It significantly improves the overall user experience and makes it easier to manage your app library. Whether you’re setting up a new device or simply keeping your apps up-to-date, this feature will save you time and effort. Apple has long offered similar support for installing up to three iOS apps at once.

Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 unveiled, same as Snapdragon 7s Gen 2

Qualcomm has introduced a new chipset, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3. The company quietly announced the new chipset and this processor has the code name SM6475-AB. Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 will power affordable smartphones. In addition, this processor was actually introduced as an underclocked version of the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2.

Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 Features

Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 is an important chipset. By using this chipset, brands that will announce new smartphones will be able to offer users higher-performance devices at a more affordable price.

Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 has 4 performance-oriented 2.4 GHz Cortex-A78 cores and 4 efficiency-oriented 1.8 GHz Cortex-A55 cores. On the GPU side, SoC uses the Adreno 710 GPU. Alongside support for LPDDR4x and LPDDR5 RAM, this chipset also supports UFS 3.1.

The Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 had 4 performance-oriented 2.4GHz Cortex-A78 cores and 4 efficiency-oriented 1.95GHz Cortex-A55 cores and used Adreno 710 as GPU. 6 Gen 3 and 7s Gen 2 are very similar chipsets. However, the 7s Gen 2 supports 144Hz refresh rate at FHD+ resolution, while the 6 Gen 3 does not. Other than that, there are no other differences and Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 does not offer any new features. Qualcomm has re-announced the same processor with a different name.

Exclusive: Meizu’s new mysterious smartphone is coming

Meizu has started work on a new smartphone with an unknown name. Gizmochina has spotted this smartphone in the IMEI database. The only thing known about this smartphone is the model number. But with the model number we can make “some guesses”.

Meizu’s Mysterious Smartphone

According to the IMEI database, this new smartphone will have the model number M469Q. When we look at the model number, we can say that it is very similar to the model number of a smartphone of Meizu. The M469Q resembles the Meizu 21 Note with the model number M468Q. Perhaps the mystery smartphone with model number M469Q has similar features to the Meizu 21 Note. Of course, let’s not forget that this is a guess. But let’s take a look at the features of the Meizu 21 Note to get an idea.

The Meizu 21 Note has a 6.78-inch 8T LTPO OLED screen. This screen offers Full HD+ resolution. The refresh rate varies between 1 and 144 Hz. The maximum brightness level of the screen is 5000 nits. It also features an under-display fingerprint reader.

The smartphone is powered by a 5500 mAh battery with 65W charging support. The phone has an IP65 resistance certificate against dust and water. This mysterious Meizu phone’s official launch date is naturally unknown. However, both the name of the device and more detailed information will be revealed in the future. We are eagerly waiting to see what this smartphone has to offer.

Exclusive: Motorola to unveil smartphone codenamed “Orion” in 2025

Motorola is developing another foldable smartphone to be released in 2025. The Gizmochina team has spotted a new device codenamed “Orion”. Motorola is trying to increase competition in the foldable smartphone sector.

Motorola Orion is coming

Motorola is developing a foldable smartphone, codenamed “Orion”, to be released in 2025. We can reveal the model number associated with the Orion: XT2551-3. Since the previous device with model number XT2451 was the Razr 50 Ultra, we think this new device could be the Razr 60 Ultra.

However, the market name of the device is not yet known. Furthermore, the “XT25” prefix confirms that the new smartphone will be released in 2025, thus cementing Orion’s place on Motorola’s future roadmap. It’s not yet known in which regions Motorola will offer the “Orion” model.

The Razr 50 Ultra featured a 6.9-inch foldable LTPO AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s gen 3 chipset, 50MP main camera, 32MP front camera and a 4000 mAh battery. We believe the new foldable smartphone will come with more advanced and improved features. However, the technical specifications of the new device are not yet known.

Global Redmi Note 14 5G model certified; key specs revealed

The upcoming Redmi Note 14 5G has been spotted on the FCC website, revealing key details about its specifications and features. The global variant, identified by the model number 24094RAD4G, is expected to launch next month.

The FCC listing confirms the phone will run on HyperOS 1.0 software. In terms of connectivity, the Note 14 5G will support Wi-Fi AC, Bluetooth, LTE, and 5G NR bands. In terms of charging, the phone will come with a 33W charger. While this is slightly lower than the previously rumored 45W fast charging, it still offers a decent charging speed for a mid-range device.

Redmi Note 13

Other rumored specifications include a 1.5K AMOLED display, a significant upgrade from the FHD panel found on the Redmi Note 13 5G. In terms of photography, the Note 14 5G is expected to feature a 50MP main rear camera. While this is a smaller megapixel sensor than the 108MP shooter on the Note 13 5G, the 50MP sensor should still be capable of capturing high-quality photos, especially in good lighting conditions.

Under the hood, the Note 14 5G is rumored to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ chipset. This mid-range processor is manufactured on TSMC’s 6nm process node, which offers improved power efficiency and performance compared to older chipsets.

Exclusive: Motorola “Houston” spotted on IMEI database

Motorola is actively developing new smartphones that will be released in 2025. The Gizmochina team recently spotted a new device codenamed “Houston”. This codename matches the name of Texas and the most populous city in the southern United States, implying that the smartphone codenamed “Houston” may go on sale primarily in the American market. However, Motorola plans to sell the device in other parts of the world.

Motorola’s “Houston” smartphone in the IMEI database

Motorola is planning an affordable smartphone codenamed “Houston” for launch in 2025. This is in line with their strategy to offer budget-friendly options for a variety of users. We can reveal four model numbers associated with Houston: XT2517-V, XT2517-1, XT2517-2, and XT2517-3. The “XT25” prefix confirms the 2025 launch and solidifies Houston’s place on Motorola’s upcoming roadmap.

Speculation suggests that the Houston smartphone will be a priority for the US market. Indeed, Motorola has a history of adapting certain models to specific regions to meet local market demands and preferences. However, the presence of multiple model numbers suggests that it will be officially introduced in many countries. As a result, the new smartphone will also be available for purchase by users outside the US.

While it’s too early to announce an exact release date, the anticipation for the new smartphone is growing. Given the model number system, the device will almost certainly be released in 2025.
