Realme X2 Pro starts receiving January security packs, VoWiFi feature with the new update

Last week, Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth promised the arrival of the VoWiFi feature on the Realme X2 Pro to enable Wi-Fi calling support. Now, the Realme X2 Pro has started receiving a new software update. It brings Wi-Fi calling support alongside the January 2020 security patch to fix various known security issues.

According to the changelog posted on the Realme community forum, the latest update for the Realme X2 Pro brings firmware version RMX1931EX_11.A.09. It has finally added a VoWiFi feature that enables Wi-Fi calling on both Airtel and Jio networks. Wi-Fi calling was recently enabled by the two networks for a number of smartphones. The feature was then promised by the Realme India CEO.

The update also fixes "partial known" issues and improves system stability. It also fixes the issue that could impact video uploads on Instagram. In the forum post, Realme noted, “In order to ensure the stability of this update, it will have a staged rollout. The update will be randomly pushed out to a limited number of users today and will have a broader rollout in a few days after making sure there are no critical bugs. If no critical bugs are found, the full rollout will be completed in the upcoming days.”

The new software update has started rolling out for the Realme X2 Pro. It is a staged rollout. Realme enthusiasts who cannot wait for the update can manually download it from here.

Realme also launched a new variant of the Realme X2 Pro with 6GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage in India last month. It is priced at Rs 27,999. You can read our review of the Realme X2 Pro here.

Moto G Stylus live photos surface online

Motorola is all set to launch new smartphones at an event on February 23. It is said that the company may be looking forward to launching four new smartphones, namely - Moto G8, Moto G8 Power, Moto G Stylus and the Moto Edge+. Now, more information regarding the Moto G Stylus has surfaced online. The smartphone has leaked in live images, giving us our first look at the front of the handset.

The latest development comes from Twitter user Gustavo Gonzalez who allegedly has the pre-production unit of the Moto G Stylus. The image reveals the front panel of the handset. It is seen sporting a punch-hole display alongside a stylus. The latter looks pretty basic and does not appear to have any buttons for added functionality like Samsung’s S pens. One of the images show the stylus sitting beside the phone that has the Notes app opened on it. However, it is unclear if this is an exclusive Moto app.

Another leaked image shows a device that reads "Finish configuring your Moto G7". This could be because of the unfinished software on the pre-production unit. The smartphone is rumoured to run Android 10.

The Moto G Stylus bears the model number XT2043-4 and is expected to come with a 6.36-inch FHD+ display with a punch-hole notch. It may house a 25MP selfie shooter in the notch. One of the previously leaked images has shown the device sporting a quad rear camera setup. The Moto G Stylus is tipped to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 chipset, paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage. It is expected to pack a 5000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging.
