iQOO 10 Legend BMW Edition Shows Up In New Renders With A New Design Language

For years, iQOO has been partnering with BMW for exclusive editions of its flagship phone. This year things don’t seem to be any different as alleged renders of the iQOO 10 Legend BMW Edition have appeared online. Legend, for the unversed, is the name given to the top-tier model of iQOO phones in India. In other markets, the phone could carry a slightly different title. So far we have seen 3 colorways of the so-called iQOO 10 Legend BMW Edition. They come from different sources.

iQOO 10 Legend BMW Edition: What We Know So Far

The first image of the iQOO 10 Legend BMW Edition came from the Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station (via Weibo). The phone had a multi-tone finish on the back as always. At the top, there is the camera panel with seemingly three sensors. The leader of the lot is apparently a 50MP camera. Beneath the panel, there is a group of multi-colored stripes. What’s different, as you can see is that the stripes are horizontal this time around.  

BREAKING !!! iQOO 10 leaked for the first time! It adopts a revolutionary new ID with modular splicing design on the back. We can also find some familiar elements, such as classic aramid fiber stripes. The new and the old together contribute to its noticeable avant-grade look. pic.twitter.com/TOWTWlFK03

Below the stripes, it is the color white on the model renders shared by Digital Chat Station while on the ones shared by Ice Universe, we get to see the other two colors.

Other than this, the iQOO 10 Pro variant is rumored to ship with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC, 2K LTPO panel with an embedded ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, and support for 200W wired brick, and 65W wireless adapter.

According to an exclusive report by 91Mobiles citing Evan Blass, we get a brief look at the design of the upcoming ROG Phone 6. As per the images shared by Evan, the ROG Phone 6 picks up its looks from the ROG Phone 5 Ultimate flush with a white rear panel and a large triple camera cutout. The back of the phone also has the ROG Vision matrix display that is likely customizable as on the ROG Phone 5 Ultimate.

We also get a look at two ROG Phone 6 accessories: the Aero Active Cooler 6 and the Devilcase Guardian Lite Plus. The Aero Active cooler isn’t new though it seems it’s been redesigned with a larger fan outlet and RGB lights along with four additional trigger buttons. The Devilcase Guardian Lite Plus, however, is a new accessory for a ROG Phone and acts as a protective shell with cutouts for two shoulder buttons. Devilcase is a Taiwanese manufacturer of phone cases and its Guardian range of cases is said to be extremely durable.

Akash Ambani Succeeds Mukesh Ambani As The New Reliance Jio Chairman

Mukesh Ambani has resigned from the post of director of the Reliance Jio board and passed the baton to his elder son Akash Ambani who is the new chairman of the board. Mukesh Ambani, 65, resigned from the board on June 27 as per a recent stock exchange filing. Let’s learn about the new Chairperson of the Reliance Jio Infocomm. In other words, here are a few things you need to know about Akash Ambani.

Akash Ambani, The New Reliance Jio Chairman: What you need to know

Akash Ambani, 30 is the first-born child of Mukesh and Nita Ambani. He has two siblings viz. Anant Ambani and Isha Ambani. He got married to Shloka Mehta in 2020 and they have a son named Prithvi. He has a major in Economics from Brown University, the US. He was inducted as a director on Jio Platforms Ltd in 2020. Along with his siblings, he has been a board member of Reliance Retail Ventures too.

Akash’s appointment as Chairman of Reliance Jio Infocomm is said to be based on his role in the telecom company's development so far.  This reportedly includes his contributions toward the growth and expansion of Jio 4G services, India-centric Jiophone (2017), and Jio’s headway into cutting-edge technologies like AI, ML, and blockchain.  He apparently also played a major role in attracting huge investments from global giants involving the likes of Google.  He is expected “to continue to operate on the cutting-edges of innovation and technology to encourage an ecosystem that will further digital solutioning and make the power of data and technology more accessible to all, including those who are still at the margin”.  He further envisions the “convergence dividend’ for 500 million-plus consumers digitally and with high-inclusivity across geographies and income levels”.  Meanwhile, his father Mukesh Ambani will carry on the role of Chairman, Jio Platforms Ltd. which is the parent of all Jio digital platforms including Reliance Jio Infocomm.

Mr. Ambani is clearly making his succession moves, not to mention the wealth transfer. We will be keeping a close eye on the business tycoon, his family and how they impact the tech landscape.
