Redmi Note 9 series launch confirmed for March 12

Redmi has officially confirmed the launch date for the Redmi Note 9 series on Twitter. Scheduled for an official announcement on March 12 at 12pm, the Redmi Note 9 series will consist of the Redmi Note 9 and Redmi Note 9 Pro. According to the recent teaser posts put out by the Chinese electronics manufacturer on social media platforms, the Redmi Note 9 series will feature a quad-camera setup on the back panel. The new Redmi Note 9 series is expected to be priced around the Rs 15,000 mark.

The upcoming Redmi Note 9 series handsets will replace the outgoing Redmi Note 8 series, which consists of the Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro. Based on the details we have with us at the moment, we believe the Redmi Note 9 series will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 720G Mobile Platform with up to 8GB of RAM. We also think the Redmi Note 9 series will be charged using a USB Type-C cable. Whether it will sport a screen with a 90Hz refresh rate, a feature that is trending heavily of late, is hard to say at the moment.

Redmi's teaser video shows the history of the Redmi Note series since 2014

The outgoing Redmi Note 8 is a low-end smartphone with a 6.3-inch Full HD+ screen. It’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 chip with up to 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage space.

Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite tablet gets 4GB RAM64GB storage variant for Rs 22,990

If you’ve been eyeing the Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite on Flipkart for some time now but haven’t yet hit the big orange ‘Buy Now’ button, there’s good news coming your way. There’s a new variant of the tablet out, and it’s got more RAM and double the storage space on board. The new Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite variant features 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage space. Announced on Friday, the new variant of the Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite is priced at Rs 22,990.

The new variant of the Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite was announced last week but has yet to become available on Flipkart. Clicking the ‘Notify Me’ button on Huawei India’s website currently redirects users to a Flipkart page that lists the device as, ‘Coming Soon’. Like the older variant, which ships with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage space, the new variant comes with a single connectivity option: Wi-Fi + 4G LTE. The tablet is available in Champagne Gold and Space Grey colours.

The new variant commands a premium of Rs 2,000 over the older one but we believe it’s the one you should pick if you plan to multitask and store a lot of content on your new tablet. Another reason to pick the 4GB variant over the 3GB variant is Huawei’s uninspiring disclaimer about the actual RAM capacity. “Due to limitations in CPU processing power, and memory used by the operating system and pre-installed applications, the actual space available to users will be less than the nominal memory capacity.”

Apart from boosting the RAM and internal storage space, Huawei has made no other changes or upgrades to the MediaPad M5 Lite. It still runs EMUI 8.0, which is based on the dated Android 8.0 Oreo mobile operating system. The tablet’s battery, too, remains unchanged at 7500mAh. The Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite features a Kirin 659 chip and a 10.1-inch IPS LCD screen, which has a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. The Huawei MediaPad M5 Lite also features quad stereo speakers that are tuned by Harman Kardon.

Vivo NEX 3S 5G with Snapdragon 865, curved display to be launched soon: Report

In less than a week after Vivo showcased its new APEX 2020 concept smartphone, we’re seeing reports of a Vivo NEX 3S 5G smartphone pop up online with similar specifications and features. According to GizmoChina, this new Vivo NEX 3S 5G is a production-ready embodiment of the APEX 2020 concept. It will reportedly feature the same curved display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chip. Interestingly, Vivo could launch the NEX 3S 5G sometime later this month in China.

According to the report, which cites Digital chat station’s post on Weibo as a source, the upcoming Vivo NEX 3S 5G will be powered by Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 865 chip. It will also feature a curved (aka ‘waterfall’) display and support the same 55W fast charging technology seen on the recently announced IQOO 3 smartphone. On the TENAA certification website, the Vivo NEX 3S 5G is listed under the model number Vivo V1950A. At 219.5g, it’s also quite heavy.

From what we know so far, the upcoming Vivo NEX 3S 5G will sport a 6.89-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1080 x 2256 pixels. The Snapdragon 865 chip on the inside will be complemented by 8GB of RAM, while storage options include 128GB and 256GB. On the back panel, the NEX 3S 5G will have as many as three cameras, including a 64MP primary sensor, a 13MP telephoto sensor, and a 13MP ultra-wide sensor. The selfie camera is the same 16MP pop-up unit seen on the Vivo NEX 3.

The APEX 2020 that Vivo announced recently has similar specifications. It features a 6.45-inch curved display that “bends at an angle of up to 120° on both sides”. The handset ditches physical side buttons for a “virtual pressure-sensing button”. The APEX 2020 is best known for its gimbal camera, which means the primary rear camera sensor is housed inside a tiny gimbal-like structure to help improve optical stabilisation while capturing photos. “Lab tests demonstrate that compared to the traditional OIS system, its stabilization angle is 200% extended,” claims Vivo in its news release.

Microsoft Surface Go 2 to feature Intel Core m3 chip, design tweaks: Report

Microsoft launched the Surface Go tablet in India a little over a year ago but appears ready to give it a quick upgrade sometime soon. According to a recent report from Windows Latest, Microsoft will equip the second-generation Surface Go with an Intel 8th Gen Core m3 CPU. Expected to hit the stores later this year, the Surface Go 2 will feature some minor design changes but won’t look drastically different from the way it does now. We can expect the Surface Go 2 to cost the same $399 (Rs 28,870 approx) as before.

The report indicates that the Microsoft Surface Go 2 will be powered by an Intel Core m3-8100Y CPU, which is a dual-core mobile processor built on a 14-nanometre process. It has a base frequency of 1.10GHz and a maximum boosted frequency of 3.40GHz. It will be accompanied by 8GB of RAM. Though Microsoft appears to be throwing a new CPU into the mix, it could continue to sell the base variant with Intel’s Pentium Gold 4415Y CPU and 4GB of RAM, especially in emerging markets such as India.

The report goes on to say that Microsoft will give the Surface Go 2 a mild exterior refresh but not an extensive overhaul. The compact Windows tablet is expected to retain its silver magnesium-alloy finish along with its thick black bezels. The size of the screen, too, is expected to go unchanged at 10 inches. The screen resolution, too, will be the same 1800 x 1200 pixels. Like before, Microsoft could sell Wi-Fi-only and Wi-Fi + LTE variants of the Surface Go.

The outgoing Surface Go is available on Flipkart at a starting price of Rs 29,999. This base variant comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of eMMC flash storage. The high-end variant, which is the only other variant in India, offers 8GB of RAM and 128GB of solid-state storage. Both variants weigh half a kilogramme and ship with Windows 10 in S Mode, which does not allow app installations outside the Microsoft Store. This restriction, of course, can be circumvented.
