Redmi unveils world’s first 300W charging technology, fully recharges a smartphone in just 5 minutes

Redmi officially revealed its all-new 300W fast charging technology today, the first of its kind and the fastest in the world. Capable of fully recharging a smartphone in 5 minutes, the technology beats the 240W charging found on the realme GT Neo 5.

Taking to its official Weibo page, Redmi showed off the charging technology in action through a video of a test on the Redmi Note 12 Explorer Edition. The device’s 4100mAh was fully recharged in just under 5 minutes, with the video also showcasing the power usage throughout the testing.

Redmi wants to popularise gaming phones with the K40 Gaming Edition

As you may know, the Xiaomi sub-brand Redmi launched a new gaming phone earlier this week. Redmi wants to popularise gaming phones and the Redmi K40 Gaming Edition is its way of doing so. So far, it's proven to be rather successful.

According to ITHome, Redmi General Manager Lu Weibing said that the biggest reason why gaming phones are niche is due to price. He talked about how an increasing number of smartphone users in China are younger people who love to play games. As such, it's won't be a surprise if gaming phones become more mainstream in the future.

The Redmi K40 Gaming Edition is one of the models the company came up with to popularise gaming smartphones. With a starting price of 1999 yuan (~RM1264), it's easily the cheapest gaming-centric phone by far and the specs are good too. The phone has proven to be a huge success in China, selling 100000 units in a minute.

Maybe we'll see more Redmi gaming phones in the coming months, something for us to look forward to. For now, it'll be great if we can test the Redmi K40 Gaming Edition for ourselves and see how it performs. Until then, stay tuned to TechNave.com for more news like this.


RedmiBook 15 Malaysia release: Special early-bird price from RM1899 this 6 until 30 June 2022

Xiaomi Malaysia today announced the release of the RedmiBook 15 in Malaysia, making it the first ever laptop by Xiaomi to enter our local market. Under the hood, the laptop is powered by either an 11th-gen Intel i3-1115G4 or i-5-111300H processor alongside 8GB DRR4 RAM.

The Intel i3 version comes with 256GB storage while the Intel i5 version has double that with 512GB of storage. The latter also utilises an SSD with NVMe PCIe interface which allows for faster data transfers.

There are no dedicated GPUs for both devices, with the Intel i3 variant featuting Intel UHD Graphics and the Intel i5 with Intel Iris Xe Graphics. As for the screen, both sports a 15.6-inch FHD anti-glare panel which supports DC Dimming.

The RedmiBook 15 comes with Microsoft Windows 11 Home pre-installed with Xiaomi promising a lifetime OTA of software updates. As for I/O, the device has USB 3.0, HDMI 1.4, Realtek RTS5176 Card Reader and audio jack.

Other notable specs include a 46Whr battery, dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, 2W stereo speakers with DTS tuning for video call and a builtin 720p webcam. The RedmiBook 15 will be available for purchase in Malaysia starting from 6 June 2022.

The Intel i3 model (8GB/256GB) is priced at RM2399 while the Intel i5 (8GB/512GB) variant is RM2799. Both variants will be available for purchase at all Authorized Xiaomi stores in Malaysia and online on official Lazada and Shopee stores.

RedmiBook 15 Review – An ideal budget laptop for students

Back in June, Xiaomi Malaysia introduced the RedmiBook 15 laptop for RM2399. If you've shopped for laptops before, you can tell that this is a very affordable price. It's a model targeted at those who want a basic laptop with a large screen for daily use or work tasks.

When it comes to smartphones, Redmi is a brand known for affordable smartphones with solid specs, so can the same be said for this laptop? Read on to find out!

Externally, the RedmiBook 15 has a simple and minimalist design. Its dark grey metallic body gives it a rather premium image even though it's an entry-level laptop PC. The whole body also has a nice matte surface, so you won't leave fingerprints.

On the lid, the RedmiBook 15 has a small Redmi logo and a grey slogan that reads "Power Your Creativity" next to it. It's a nice, subtle touch that blends in with the colour of the laptop's body.

Redmi logo and "Power Your Creativity" slogan

This computer has a thickness of 19.9mm and a weight of 1.8kg, a fairly standard dimension and weight for a PC in this category. I'm sure it can easily fit in all kinds of bags and can be carried anywhere.

For the screen, the RedmiBook 15 has a 15.6-inch display with a Full HD (1920×1080) resolution, a standard refresh rate of 60Hz, a peak brightness of 220 nits, and a contrast ratio of 500:1 and only 45% NTSC colour gamut. As you would expect from a laptop display like this, it works well for basic tasks. However, it lacks the rich and vivid colours that could make movies more enjoyable.

The screen also has a narrow 90° viewing angle, so you'll have to be right in front of it to see clearly. Its low brightness also makes this computer more suitable for indoor use, as it's difficult to see under bright sunlight.

Good screen for everyday tasks, but subpar colour reproduction

You usually get a smaller 14-inch screen for a laptop in this price range. With the RedmiBook 15, you get a larger 15.6-inch screen instead. Furthermore, there's a 720p webcam above the screen, which works well for video calls.

Next, let's talk about the keyboard. It comes with well-spaced keys and key travel of about 1.5mm. For your info, many laptops of this size have a number pad on the right side, and the keyboard would have smaller keys. But Redmi decided to ditch the Numpad for larger keys, which are more comfortable to type on. The trackpad is also quite large, measuring 126×82.6mm and it is very responsive.

If there's one small problem with this keyboard, it would be the lack of backlighting. If you're the type who likes to work in the dark (you really shouldn't), then you might find it hard to type with this keyboard.

Right side: 3.5mm audio jack, SD memory card slot, USB 2.0 port, RJ45 ethernet port, Kensington lock slot

Left side: Charger plug, USB 3.2 Gen 1 port, HDMI 1.4 port and USB3.2 Gen 1 port

At the bottom, the RedmiBook 15 has dual stereo speakers with DTS Audio support and below-average audio quality. For I/O ports, you will find a 3.5mm audio jack, SD memory card slot, USB 2.0 port, and RJ45 Ethernet port on the right. As for the left, there's the charging port, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports, and an HDMI 1.4 port. Unfortunately, it lacks a USB-C port, which may disappoint some users since many modern devices rely on USB-C.

The specs of this laptop can be considered entry-level. It has an Intel Core i3-1115G4 @ 3.00GHz CPU, Intel UHD integrated GPU, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB SSD storage. You can get a slightly faster variant with an Intel Core i5 CPU and a 512GB SSD. But it's more expensive, and the RAM capacity is still 8GB (which isn't enough for many people). As for the operating system, you'll get the RedmiBook 15 with Windows 11 Home out right out of the box.

Low PCMark10 benchmark scores, but that's to be expected

You can only play simple games like Metal Slug X

While using this laptop, we encountered no lag or crashes while writing documents, browsing the web or watching videos. It is also pre-installed with Microsoft Office software, so you won't download it again before starting to work on this PC.

But if you want to play games, don't expect fast performance on this computer. With the low RAM and lack of a dedicated GPU, there aren't many games you can play. You can play some simple 2D titles or older games with low PC requirements, so that's great if it's what you need. But don't bother with Android emulators or other PC games, as they just won't run well.

As for the battery, the RedmiBook 15 has a relatively small capacity of 46Wh. Xiaomi says it can last up to 10 hours. But from our time using it, it can only last around six to seven hours with the default settings. Of course, that's more than enough for a simple work laptop.

Overall, this laptop could be suitable for those who only need it for basic tasks like writing documents, web browsing, online banking or watching videos. In fact, it's a fantastic option for students who need an affordable laptop to watch online lectures and complete their assignments. They could even use it to watch Netflix series when they want to relax.

Of course, it does have its shortcomings. Case in point, the poor display viewing angle and unimpressive audio quality. But these are expected for laptops in this price range. At RM2399, it's one of the most affordable budget laptop PCs. Of course, there are alternatives, such as the HP Laptop 14s (RM2569), Dell Inspiron 15 3515 (RM2099), and Acer Aspire 5 A514 (RM2199).

So, what do you think of the RedmiBook 15? Is this a laptop you'd buy? Share your thoughts in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for more reviews like this.

Pro: Affordable price, minimalist design, and large screen

Cons: Narrow viewing angle, below average audio quality, and keyboard with no backlight

Conclusion: Suitable for students or those who want a budget laptop

RedmiBook Pro expected to come with full-size backlit keyboard

Xiaomi decided to bring back the webcam too

Some say that Xiaomi is gearing up for a big launch this month, which will see the reveal of the Redmi K40 and Note 10 series. The company is also expected to launch a new RedmiBook Pro laptop at the event. Here's some new info about the laptop.

According to the latest teaser, the RedmiBook Pro will come with a "full-size backlit keyboard". Since this looks to be an ultrathin and light, that probably means it's a regular laptop keyboard without any Numpad. Strangely, Xiaomi is talking about backlit keyboards since they aren't unique, but the teaser could also be hinting at the backlighting being in non-white colours. If that's the case, then it would be something worth noting.

In terms of hardware specs, it will be equipped with an 11th Gen Intel Core H35 series CPU, which was designed for ultraportable gaming. It's also expected to feature an Nvidia GeForce MX450 GPU, a 2K display, and the return of a webcam. If these specs are accurate, then non-white colour backlighting for the keyboard wouldn't be that unusual.

So far, the design for this laptop pegs it as a regular ultraportable. But if you want to play games like CS: GO or League of Legends, its hardware should be more than capable. Having said that, would you be interested in getting this particular laptop? Drop us a comment below and stay tuned to TechNave for more updates about the laptop.


References to Google Pixel Fold spotted in Android 12 code

Google has already given us a sneak peek at the Pixel 6 series earlier and will be launching the devices in no time. However, the company might still have something else up its sleeve, which is its very first foldable smartphone. With that said, Android 12 is back at it again by giving us more information about Google's future product. This time, it directly hints at the existence of the Pixel Fold.

A reputable Google camera modder, cstark27, spotted a reference to a "Passport" device in the Android 12 code. It is worth mentioning that this is not the first time for the appearance of the seeming codename for Google's upcoming foldable. Other than that, some references to the Samsung Exynos ("Shannon") modem also suggest that the device could feature the same chipset, Tensor, as the Pixel 6 series.

Samsung has released several generations of folding smartphones and improved them very well. With each generation, the company presented stronger display material for a prolonged life cycle. Not only that but the new Galaxy Z Flip 3 might become a choice for those who never owned a folding smartphone because it has the price of a standard flagship smartphone. Therefore, can we see Google's answer to this by the end of the year with a foldable that is an all-rounder?

Affordable Apple iPhone Casings Appear

The more affordable Apple iPhone that Apple itself said they'd never make looks to becoming a reality as more leaked images of casing shells appear. Unlike previous images these don't look like rendered images drawn by an expert 3D artist with too much time on their hands. The green casing shell reveals a metal undercover that looks like it would fit well with the iPhone and the Apple logo on the back seems to complete this rumour.

Recently leaked casing shell images reveal that there may be a bright red and yellow casing as well. This matches with earlier assumptions that a more affordable iPhone would differentiate itself by offering many different colours. All casing shells seem to be plastic or silicone much like the many coloured casings of the Nokia Asha 501. Stay tuned as we cover further developments. [Source]


Refurbished Galaxy Note 7 spotted with full specs in Korean market, could be renamed Galaxy Note FE

Samsung is expected to launch the long awaited refurbished model of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 by the end of this month. It was initially thought that the refurbished model would be named the Galaxy Note 7R but we have reasons to believe that the phone would be called the Galaxy Note FE (Fandom Edition). A very peculiar name compared to the 7R but at least it’s catchy.

Spotted on a South Korean retailer, the Galaxy Note FE has been price at 699600 KRW, this amounts to around RM2700 with specs similar to that of the original Galaxy Note 7 except with a nice new Exynos 8890 chipset, smaller 3200mAh battery and the latest Android Nougat. However, some models of the Note FE has been seen with the Marshmallow so we will see how this turns out.

All Galaxy FE models will have a distinct letter R on the rear bottom of the phone as shown in our previous coverage. Samsung has also confirmed that they will be disclosing a white paper report which will contain transparent details on everything that went wrong with the Note 7. Hopefully with all that, we can put that whole fiasco behind.

Speculations aside, we can only wait for the end of June for the official announcement so we can maybe see a possible comeback for this promising device. The Malaysian release and pricings should be revealed straight after that so make sure to stay tuned to TechNave for the latest updates.

Regular iPhone 15 models may miss out on high refresh rate and always-on display features again

The upcoming iPhone 15 lineup by Apple will reportedly retain the spec differences between the Pro and non-Pro models as the iPhone 14 series in the display department. In other words, the vanilla iPhone 15 models are set to miss out on ProMotion and always-on display again.

As reported by MacRumors, industry sources as per news aggregator account yeux1122 on Naver blog revealed that only the iPhone 15 Pro models will be getting LTPO panels. Allowing for adaptive refresh rates from 1 to 120Hz, these LTPO panels are what makes ProMotion and always-on display possible on the iPhone.

Hence, for the third year in a row, the vanilla iPhone would miss out on high refresh rate displays since ProMotion was introduced in the iPhone 13 Pro series. Given that even affordable Android smartphones these days have high refresh rate panels, this is quite the bummer for those that are planning to get the vanilla iPhone 15.

Of course, do take this information with a grain of salt as nothing is confirmed as of yet. Well, stay tuned to TechNave for the latest development on this, as well as for the latest trending tech news.

Reliable analyst said that the Samsung Galaxy S21 series won't feature under-display camera

The under-display camera might be one of the latest technology that many can't wait to see on upcoming smartphones. With the technology, the era of notches will be ended as manufacturers can finally achieve real full-view display. However, for those who are wishing for the Samsung Galaxy S21 series to come with it, we have some sad news.

According to a reliable display analyst Ross Young, the entire Samsung Galaxy S21 lineup will not be featuring an under-display camera. The news came as the analyst straight out said that the technology won't be included when a Twitter user asked about it. For now, the reason behind it is unknown but the analyst has been quite accurate when it comes to this kind of news.

The under-display camera technology has been making improvements with Visionox mass-producing the screen for it and companies like OPPO and Xiaomi demonstrating their products with it. However, it looks like Samsung is not ready to integrate it with their upcoming products yet.

Remember AirSelfie? That pocket-sized camera drone on Kickstarter? It’s now available to the general public!

Remember AirSelfie? It is a tiny, flying selfie camera, that features a 5MP camera, enabling it to take photos as well as record videos from up to 20 metres. It is powered by four propellers surrounded with safety guards, yet compact enough to slot inside of a smartphone case. It is now on sale to the general public, with the company behind the Kickstarter project in process of delivering the gadget to its initial backers.

The AirSelfie is fitted with a 30mm-equivalent lens that offers 5MP stills and Full HD (1080p) videos in 30fps. There is a 4GB memory card built into the drone for storing images, that can either be directly transfer using USB, or through a 2.4GHz WiFi network the drone produces, which also serves to control the drone using an app available for both iOS and Android. A maximum of eight consecutive photos can be taken at a single burst.

On a full charge powered by its 260mAh battery, the AirSelfie can be used for up to three minutes of flight. When not in use, the AirSelfie can be housed in a phone case (that also acts as a charger) designed for most of the popular smartphones, including iPhone (6/6S, 7/7 Plus), Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and Google Pixel. There is also an accessory power bank that charges it to 50% in ten minutes, and a full charge in 40 minutes. The power bank will have enough power to charge it up to 20 times before running out of charge

The AirSelfie is currently on pre-order, with deliveries happening in May or June. It costs £220/€259 (about RM1225) with the phone cover and £229/€269 (about RM1275) with the power bank. For more information, you may visit AirSelfie’s website.


Affordable Archos 80 Xenon Tablet Arrives

Good and affordable tablet models are increasing in numbers and the Archos 80 Xenon is one of them. Recently spotted in Europe, this 8-inch tablet features 3G connectivity and a 226 euro (RM881) price tag. Other tech specs include the following:

While the RM881 price is much higher than some China-brand Android tablets, it is still more affordable than a 3G-equipped iPad mini which starts from $459 (RM1360). While Archos is better known for its budget tablets, build-quality is generally better than most China-brand tablets, making it a more viable and affordable Android alternative for someone looking at the Apple iPad mini. Stay tuned for other details as we will continue to keep you updated.


Remember to re-register your Secure2U in MayBank App after upgrading to Android 10

Upgrading to Android 10 will, of course, get you new features. However, there are also a few things you need to compromise, as not everything new can be flawless without the bugs or other technical issues. Maybank is now asking the users of their Maybank APP to re-register for Secure2u after upgrading to Android 10.

The reason is that users who upgrade their smartphones to the latest Android version have not been able to approve transactions with the app. Therefore, it looks like the only way to fix it now is to re-register your Secure2U.

Secure2U is a safe and convenient way for you to approve transactions through the methods of Secure Verification (one-tap approval) and Secure TAC (6-digit TAC number generated on the mobile app). For those who are tired of waiting for SMS to receive the TAC code, this feature will definitely help improve your online banking experience.

Remove China Apps got suspended by Google for violating company policy

In case you missed out the news, there was a "Remove China Apps" that got popular in India's Google Play Store. As racist as it may sound, this app actually helped users to remove apps made in China and has gained over 5 million downloads. Of course, Google took note of this and has suspended the app in the Google Play Store.

Obviously, the suspension of the app is due to violating certain company policies, said a spokesman for Google recently. Not only that, but the Remove China Apps also violated the company's policies in misleading users to removing third-party apps as well as modifying device settings or features. The Remove China Apps was developed by OneTouch AppLabs, they didn't comment on the removal of the app but they did thank the users who supported them.

The TikTok app rating that got bomb reviewed by the Indian YouTube community

Although it's not official, this definitely has to do with boycotting Chinese mobile apps since the hashtag #BoycottChineseProducts got really popular online. On the other hand, we think this might have to do with TikTok getting 1.3 stars in the Indian Google Play Store thanks to the Indian YouTube community backlash which you can read about it here. Before the app removal, users would get a pop-up message of "You are awesome, no China app found" after scanning the phone with the said app.

Remove China App is a really bizarre case but what do you folks think? Let us know on our Facebook page and stay tuned for more trending tech news at TechNave.com.


Removed K-pop songs back on Spotify after license renewal

Remember when your favourite K-pop song suddenly disappeared from Spotify last week? As you already know, this was due to the expiry of the license agreement between Spotify and Kakao Entertainment. Fortunately, that should no longer be a problem.

Spotify has regained the license to Kakao Entertainment's content, allowing them to be added back to the music streaming platform. In addition to that, South Korean fans will also be able to access the content on Spotify for the first time. Kakao Entertainment also confirmed that its content will be available to all Spotify users around the world.

For your information, Kakao Entertainment operates its own streaming service called Melon. It's possible that the Korean company wanted a more favourable agreement to protect its platform. But after the Internet blew up over the issue last week, Kakao Entertainment may have been pressured to make a quick decision.

Mind you, that's just speculation on our part. Anyway, have you managed to find your favourite K-pop songs back on Spotify? Let us know in the comments below! Also, stay tuned to TechNave for more trending tech news.


Render and tech specs for two Sony Xperia devices leaked

Due to the decision to pull out of MWC 2020 and Sony not announcing any new launch dates, leaks have become the only way to find out what the company's new Xperia devices would be like. Luckily, Max Weinbach posted the series of images that revealed the Xperia 1 II and Xperia 10 II, which are Sony's next generation of mid-range and flagship smartphones.

The Xperia 1 II is a 5G device that comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of internal storage, and a 6.5-inch 4K OLED display. One thing that was ambiguous was the part about the display's Motion Blur Reduction that said to be '90Hz equivalent'; it sounds like Sony designed the display to have smoother motions without actually having a high refresh rate. Besides that, the phone has five cameras at the back - three 12MP lenses paired with a ToF and 'Real-time eye AF'.

As for the Xperia 10 II, this one is a mid-range device powered by an older Snapdragon 665 chipset. It also has 4GB of RAM, 128GB of internal storage, and a 6-inch OLED display. The rear has a simple triple-camera setup (12MP+8MP+8MP). All in all, this model seems to be a fairly normal mid-ranger with no standout features.

Leaks from Max Weinbach have proven to be rather accurate so far, but it's best to not get too excited since there's no official word to validate the leak. With that said, would you consider these Sony Xperia devices if they are launched in Malaysia? Let us know on our Facebook page and stay tuned to TechNave.com for more news like this.


Render images of Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro leaked and it might be price at ~RM1,977

Last month, the live images of the Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro have been leaked and revealed that the brand is planning to release the Mi 10T series. The lineup is said to bring Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite, Mi 10 T, and the Mi 10T Pro. Until today, the Mi 10T Pro surfaced on the Internet again with high-quality render images this time.

According to the render images, the device might come with a flat display instead of a curved one. Earlier, it has been mentioned that it will be equipped with an OLED panel that supports a 144Hz refresh rate. On the right side of the Mi 10T Pro, you can see a volume rocker and a power button.

To recap, the Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro is expected to feature either Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865 or 865 Plus chipset. It will bring 8GB of RAM as well alongside a 5,000mAh battery. Other than that, it is obvious that the device will come with support for the 5G network too. For the price, it is rumoured that the Mi 10T Pro could be sold at around 476 USD (~RM1,977).

Let us know what you think about the Xiaomi Mi 10T series on our Facebook page. Stay tuned to TechNave.com for more exciting smartphone news.


Render of Mac mini with M1 Pro/Max leaked, could launch on 8 March 2022

If you recall, it was rumoured that the new iPhone SE and iPad Air could be unveiled at an Apple event next month. But this spring event could have more than just these two devices. Sources claim that a new Mac mini could also be revealed at the launch.

The folks at Apple Insider have provided renders of what they believed to be the new Mac mini. It's expected to feature a redesign that gives it a plastic/plexiglass top, cooling vents at the bottom, and two rubber feet. On top of that, there won't be a plastic base anymore, so no more easy access to the internal components. Lastly, the new model could also have more USB-C ports and Apple's new magnetic power connector.

The removable bottom cover is gone, so do we still get access to the components?

In terms of specs, the new Mac mini will allegedly feature the M1 Pro and M1 Max chip. It should also have at least 8GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage. With that said, some of the above is a bit unrealistic. The new Mac mini is unlikely to have four USB-C ports in total, especially with Thunderbolt 4 and an HDMI port alongside it. The lack of an audio jack also strikes us as usual, considering that the mini PC is often used as a multimedia hub.

As for the launch date, some say it should launch later in the year, while others claim it could appear in Apple's Spring 2022 event. What do you think? Share your thoughts on the topic, and stay tuned to TechNave for the latest updates on Apple devices.


Affordable Archos smartwatches and more coming to CES 2014

Archos is usually better known for their affordable tablets but they have recently announced that they will be bringing a number of new and affordable devices to CES 2014. This includes a number of Archos smartwatches that may cost less than $50 (RM164). The Archos smartwatch in the picture looks a lot like the pebble smartwatch but there is no news on other tech specs, features or functions available for these supposedly affordable smartwatches. In related news, Archos will also be bringing a 7-inch tablet called the Smart Home tablet, an activity tracker, a blood pressure monitor, a home camera and a weather station to the show under a main theme called Archos Connected Home. All of these Archos devices will use Bluetooth LE and should be compatible with Android and iOS devices. Check out the devices in the pic below:


Render of Xiaomi 12T Pro and Redmi Pad leaked online

Early last week, Xiaomi confirmed that it plans to bring the Xiaomi 12T series to Malaysia. The Xiaomi 12T and Xiaomi 12T Pro appeared in SIRIM's database, so all that's left is the official launch. But a leaked render suggests that the Redmi Pad could also come soon.

A render of the Xiaomi 12T Pro and Redmi Pad leaked recently, showing off the back of the device. While it's faint, you can see the label '200MP' on the smartphone and '8MP' on the tablet. In other words, the Xiaomi 12T Pro will be the next smartphone to feature a 200MP main camera. It could also feature the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, a 6.67-inch AMOLED 144Hz display, a sizable 5000mAh battery, and 120W fast charging.

First look Xiaomi 12T Pro- 200MP camera Redmi Pad- 8MP rear camera #Xiaomi #Xiaomi12TPro #RedmiPad pic.twitter.com/pmsrIoeg4R

As for the Redmi Pad, we first spotted rumours for it back in May. Sources suggest that the company will name it the Redmi Pad 5G, meaning it would be a 5G device. Allegedly, it could also be a cheaper Xiaomi Pad 5. But if the 8MP main camera is any indication, it's more likely cheaper because it has lower specs.

Mind you, there haven't been any details from official teasers yet, so do take the news with a grain of salt. Anyway, are you hyped for the Xiaomi 12T series and Redmi Pad? If you plan to get them, do let us know why in the comments below. Also, stay tuned to TechNave for further updates on these devices.


Render of a light pink iPhone 12s Pro appears online

In the last few months, there has been some speculation about Apple's iPhone series for 2021. Some rumours suggest that it would be named the iPhone 12s instead of the iPhone 13. Now, there are even some unofficial renders of the device.

According to Gizchina, the renders of an alleged iPhone 12s Pro was recently uploaded online. The device comes in a light pink-coloured body and a design that's nearly identical to the iPhone 12 Pro. It has the same triple-camera module, except it is now protected by a glass cover. The notch also seems slightly shorter, though that could just be the angle from the image.

Speaking of the notch, it was previously rumoured that the iPhone 12s series would have a smaller notch. It's also expected to come with a Direct ToF (D-ToF) sensor for face unlocking, 120Hz LTPO display, and the A15 Bionic chipset. There's even a rumour claiming that Apple will drop the charging port and rely on MagSafe for charging.

Mind you, none of the rumours has been verified, so take them with a grain of salt. Having said that, what are your thoughts about them, especially the dropping of charging ports? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for more updates on that.


Render of new Samsung Galaxy Buds appears, may launch with Galaxy Note 20 series later this year

At the end of February 2020, Samsung launched the Galaxy Buds+ in Malaysia. It hasn't been long since then, but rumours of the next generation of Galaxy Buds has surfaced. A new rumour claims that Samsung is working on a new true wireless earbuds model that could be launched with the Galaxy Note 20 series later this year.

According to Winfuture, the new earbuds model will be different from the two previous Galaxy Buds. While the latter two bore the code name "Popcorn", the new one will go with "Beans". This seems to suggest what the shape and design of the earbuds would look like. If you look at the leaked render, it does look fairly similar to a bean, which we found quite amusing.

Allegedly, inside sources have mentioned that earbuds will have the model number SM-R180. Each earbud is expected to have two small speakers, one for treble and another for bass. They're also supposed a better fit for people with smaller ears. Besides that, the SM-R180 model is expected to come with several microphones, though we don't know if it'll come with active noise cancelling.

We are unsure when this model will launch, but it should be on the same day as the Galaxy Note 20 series launch if it's coming this year. Of course, this is currently an unconfirmed rumour, so do take it with a grain of salt. With that said, what are your thoughts on the new design? Do you think it would fit you better? Let us know on our Facebook page and stay tuned to TechNave.com for updates.


Render showcases upcoming Nothing Phone (1)'s screen with uniform bezels

We're getting quite close to seeing the first Nothing phone. Recently, rumours about the Nothing Phone (1) have been popping up. The last one we saw told us that the device is sporting a transparent case design on the back. Until now, we get to look at the front thanks to this render someone has made according to previous claims.

The Nothing Phone (1) is expected to feature a 6.55-inch OLED display. It could also be using a fullHD+ (2400 x 1080) panel. The render shows us that the screen would be a flat one and has uniform bezels. Meanwhile, it uses a punch-hole cutout on the top middle to house the selfie camera. The display is said to fit the device's mid-range status.

If you don't know yet, the Phone (1) is believed to get powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1. According to the source, Nothing wants the price tag of this upcoming device to be appealing to customers. Therefore, it's possible that its first phone will not be a flagship that is eager to jump into the fierce competition.

Are you excited about the full reveal of the Nothing smartphone? Let us know by leaving a comment, and stay tuned to TechNave.com for more smartphone news.


Renders and specs for Moto Watch 100 spotted online

If there's a company that's been low-key in 2021, it would have to be Motorola. Not many people in Malaysia have been talking about the brand, but that's not to say that their products are bad. At the least, not the smartwatch that could be launching soon.

According to 91Mobiles, details for the Moto Watch 100 have been spotted online. It's a sleek-looking watch that measures 42x46x11.9mm and weighs 29g. The body is round like a typical watch and is made out of aluminium, so it should be pretty robust too. Besides that, it has a 1.3-inch display (360×360), two buttons located on the right, and a rubber strap.

In terms of features, the Moto Watch 100 will have a heart-rate sensor, accelerometer, gyroscope, HRM, SP02, GPS tracker, and ambient light sensors. We're not sure what operating system would Motorola use, but it's most likely Google's Wear OS 3.0. If that's the case, it should also support music download from Spotify for offline playback, Google Maps support, and more.

Currently, there are no signs that this model would be available in Malaysia. But if it does launch here, would you be interested in getting one? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for more news like this.

The next Samsung Unpacked is in another two weeks, but two products have already been revealed. Yesterday, some blurry photos of the new Galaxy Book Pro and Galaxy Book Pro 360 were found. Now, a reliable source has leaked their official renders.

Renders of Apple M1-powered iMac Pro leaked online

Back in March, it was suggested that Apple is planning to discontinue the iMac Pro. However, that may not be the case after all. The company launched new iMacs last month powered by the Apple M1 and could be aiming to give the iMac Pro the same treatment.

Thanks to LeaksApplePro, we now get a first look at the iMac Pro 2021. As mentioned, this year's model should be powered by the Apple M1 chip. It's also expected to have four USB-C ports (Thunderbolt-compatible) and a 10-Gigabit Ethernet port. There might also be an SD card reader on the right side, but that hasn't been decided yet.

Say hello to your very first look at the new iMac Pro.Powered by a new M-series processor. pic.twitter.com/TDA70ZaEhi

In terms of design, the new model is quite different from the previous one. As you can see, it's noticeably thicker and blockier than its predecessor. However, the chin at the bottom is shorter and the overall build feels looks more sturdy. Overall, it looks similar to the newly launched iMac 2021.

Mind you, Apple has not confirmed if there would be a new iMac Pro. There's that rumour claiming that it would be discontinued too, so take the news with a grain of salt. Having said that, what do you think of the new look? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for further updates.


Renders of Microsoft Surface Duo 2 emerge, shows angled rear camera module

Companies have been getting better at making the creases on foldable displays less visible, but some people just don't like it. For them, an alternative could be Microsoft's upcoming dual-screen device - the Surface Duo 2. Now, there are renders to show more of the device.

Previously, we've seen some live photos of the back of the Microsoft Surface Duo 2. But MSPowerUser has spotted Concept Creator's renders. It provides a front view of the device and a better look at the hinge, which is definitely different from the one on its predecessor. The front camera seems to have been retained as well, complementing what seems to be a triple-camera module that has an angled glass surface.

For some reason, Microsoft decided that the camera module had to have an angled surface...

In terms of specs, the Surface Duo 2 is expected to come with a Snapdragon 888 chipset. Based on the specs of its predecessor, it should also have at least 6GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and a 3577mAh battery (if not larger). As for the features, it should have support for a stylus, a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, and two AMOLED displays.

Mind you, the first-gen Surface Duo was never launched here in Malaysia, so we don't expect this model to be available here either. But if it does, would you be interested in getting one? Share your thoughts on the device in the comments below, and stay tuned to TechNave for more news like this.


Renders of Motorola Edge Plus leaked, shows waterfall display

When Motorola launched the new foldable Motorola Razr, it felt like a new lease of life for the brand. However, that's not the only device that Motorola plans to launch this year. There has been news of a few new models coming our way, including a mid-ranger with a stylus and a Motorola Edge Plus that has a waterfall display.

According to Pricebaba, the Motorola Edge Plus will feature a waterfall display that's at least 6.5-inches diagonally and will support 90Hz refresh rate. The renders created by OnLeaks also showed a very small punch-hole camera on the front, as well as a triple-camera setup, two-tone LED flash, and two unknown sensors at the back. Like most devices with a waterfall display, the SIM tray has been moved to the bottom, while the 3.5mm audio jack can be found on top.

Aside from that, it's also supposed to come with a Snapdragon 865 chipset, 8GB or 12GB of RAM, and a 5170mAh battery. In addition, it should come with an under-display fingerprint sensor, noise-cancelling mic, and fast-charging support as well. Bear in mind, there are no official announcements whatsoever, so we'll have to wait and see if any of the above are accurate.

Having said that, how keen are you on getting a Motorola smartphone? Would you buy this if it launches here in Malaysia? Let us know on our Facebook page and stay tuned to TechNave.com for more news on the latest smartphone leaks.

Renders of Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 reveal design and colour options

Late last month, it was rumoured that Samsung had started mass production for the Galaxy Buds 2. Usually, this means that we could expect the device to launch in a few weeks. The device was even certified on the FCC and has now appeared in renders.

Thanks to 91Mobiles, we now have a better sneak peek of the Galaxy Buds 2. The first thing you'll notice is that it's available in four colours of Black, Green, Purple, and White. Moreover, the new TWS earbuds will allegedly launch tomorrow on 28 June 2021. It will most likely be showcased along with the Galaxy Watch 4 series and Galaxy S21 FE during MWC 2021.

Anyway, the Galaxy Buds 2 is expected to come with Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) connectivity and wear detection sensors. This model won't have active noise cancellation, but it does come with two mics, so it should have some noise reduction. Samsung will also switch out the old charging case for a new one, which is expected to have a larger 500mAh battery and charge faster.

These details may or may not be accurate, but we'll probably find out tomorrow. With that said, do you plan to get Samsung's latest TWS earbuds? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for our eventual launch report.


Renders of Samsung Galaxy Note 20 have appeared, hints at periscope camera

After the launch of its Galaxy S and A series of devices, it's about time we started hearing more of the upcoming Galaxy Note 20 series. Samsung is expected to launch it in the second half of the year, but we've been seeing rumours popping up now and then. The latest one contains renders of the Galaxy Note 20, which shows what's new with the new model.

Found on Pigtou, the leaked images seem to be unofficial renders of the Galaxy Note 20. The overall design is similar to the Galaxy Note 10 series. But if you look at the rear camera setup, it's a rectangle module similar to the one found on the Galaxy S20 Ultra. This means that the Galaxy Note 20 could also have a periscope lens with up to 100x Space Zoom, which you can learn more about in our first impressions article.

Besides that, there are also a few other minor changes. First, the Galaxy Note 20 is expected to have a larger 6.7-inch display, compared to the Galaxy Note 10's 6.3-inch display. It's also supposed to have a rounder back and curvier edges, while the slot for the S-Pen has been moved as well.

The use of the Galaxy S20 Ultra's camera module sounds exciting. But Samsung hasn't confirmed if any of these renders or info are true, so do take the news with a pinch of salt. Having said that, what do you think of the renders? Would you approve of the design if it's real? Let us know on our Facebook page and stay tuned to TechNave.com for further updates on the Galaxy Note 20.


Renders of Samsung Galaxy S21 FE appeared showing off four fresh colours

After launching the Galaxy S21 series at the beginning of this year, Samsung is, of course, expected to launch the Fan Edition of the Galaxy S21 in the fall like how they always do. Although we're still considered far from the launch, someone talented has published the renders of the Galaxy S21 FE to let us get a look at what could become the final product.

The renders were made by an Italian designer named Giuseppe Spinelli, who goes by the nickname Snoreyn and joined the LetsGoDigital team more than a year ago. Just like the Galaxy S20 FE, the Galaxy S21 FE renders showcase multiple attractive colours that didn't come with the main Galaxy S21 lineup. The designer also included the box design alongside the device to make the renders appear more realistic.

For the tech specs, the Galaxy S21 FE could feature the Exynos 2100 chipset and a 120Hz 6.5-inch Full HD+ screen. It is also expected to have 6 or 8 GB of RAM, 128 or 256 GB of internal flash memory, and a 4800mAh battery that supports 25W fast charging and 15W wireless charging. Other than that, it is unclear what kind of sacrifices that Samsung will make to offer the device at a lower price, considering the current standard S21 already uses a flat-screen with Full HD resolution and a plastic case.

Let us know what you think about this design of Galaxy S21 FE on our Facebook page. Stay tuned to TechNave.com for the latest smartphone rumour.


Renders of Samsung Galaxy S21 FE leaked, expected to have slightly larger display

The Samsung Galaxy S21 series' early launch this year was a bit unexpected. But regardless, this means that the Fan Edition will also have an earlier release. In fact, the renders for the phone have just been leaked online.

The new leak is from Steve 'OnLeaks' Hemmerstoffer, who has been known to post actual renders of Samsung devices in the past. At a glance, the Galaxy S21 FE looks identical to the standard Galaxy S21. But the FE's camera bump is part of the phone's frame, instead of a separate housing that extends out. On top of that, the phone is allegedly 4mm taller and 3.3mm wider, while retaining the same thickness.

According to the leaker, the Galaxy S21 FE will likely feature a 6.4-inch display (AMOLED), which is larger than the Galaxy S21's 6.2-inch screen. It was also previously rumoured that this variant will feature a more powerful 32MP selfie camera (vs 10MP). In exchange, its rear cameras could be downgraded.

The Fan Edition variants tend to offer great bang-for-buck, so we're looking forward to its eventual launch. But with that said, what other feature or changes would you like to see from it? Let us know in the comments below, and stay tuned to TechNave for more news like this.


Renders of Samsung's Galaxy A32 5G hints that it'll come with a 6.5-inch display

It seems that a bunch of renders regarding the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G has been spotted, giving us a better idea on what to expect when the device is officially available in the global market. While not much is known in regards to the exact release date, our source did mention that the aforementioned smartphone will most likely be the cheapest 5G smartphone by Samsung.

If you look closely at the renders, it seems that the smartphone comes equipped with a 6.5-inch display with an Infinity-V notch, 48MP + 2MP sensor in the rear while the third module remains largely unknown. Not only that, but it is also expected to come with a 3.5mm audio jack slot and a USB Type-C port as well.

However, do take some of the information with a grain of salt, due to the fact that Samsung has yet to provide an official statement on the leak. Not only that, but there’s also no news on the Malaysia release date, local pricing, and exact tech specs for now.

Would you be interested in getting the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G as soon as it is available in the local market? Let us know on our Facebook page and for more updates like this, stay tuned to TechNave.com.


Renders of Samsung's next Galaxy Z Flip show us "Virtual Control Buttons" and a different folding mechanism

We've seen a lot of rumours about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 but seldom come across any news on the Z Flip 2. Until now, someone has made the renders for the device by showing a familiar design but with several tweaks that will make the next-gen clamshell folding phone more appealing than its predecessor.

According to the renders, the Z Flip 2 looks pretty much the same as the first-gen Z Flip. However, it is said to feature a new folding mechanism and will be thinner. Besides that, Samsung might also include buttons that are called "Virtual Control Buttons" as the double of the existing physical buttons. It is said that their functionalities will be the same as the physical ones so users don't have to reach all the way to press the buttons when the screen is not folded.

For the tech specs, the Z Flip 2 is expected to come with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 chipset, 128GB and 256GB of storage, 5G connectivity, and a similar camera setup from the Galaxy S21 series. There could also be a dual-battery setup with a total power of 3,200 mAh. Lastly, it is worth mentioning that the Z Flip 2 might be called Z Flip 3 to fit the naming of the larger foldable.

Let us know what you think about these renders of the upcoming Z Flip 2 on our Facebook page. Stay tuned to TechNave.com for more exciting smartphone news.


Renders of iPhone Fold appear online

While it's confirmed that Apple will eventually launch foldable devices, the company is unlikely to release one this year. Sources claim that two models could be unveiled next year, with one of them being a clamshell model. But others claim that the horizontal fold model won't be out till 2024.

For those interested, the folks over at AppleInsider have made some concept renders for this iPhone Fold. These are based on patent images for the unreleased device, which will allegedly resolve the issue of having creases. Apple plans to achieve this using new hinge designs and improvements in display technology.

These are just concept renders, so don't take them seriously

As you can see, the iPhone Fold is expected to have flat edges and rounded corners like its regular counterparts. It also features a rear quad-camera setup, punch-hole front camera, and buttons on both sides. Honestly, it looks like an iPhone 13 Pro that was converted into a foldable.

Of course, these are just concept renders, so take it with a healthy dose of salt. Having said that, would you buy the so-called iPhone Fold if it looks like this? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for more news like this.


Renders of new Samsung tablet leaked, could be the Galaxy Tab S7 FE

Earlier this month, it was rumoured that the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 XL Lite would be coming soon. This is expected to be a mid-range variant of the Galaxy Tab S7. Now, renders of the device have been leaked online, suggesting an incoming launch.

The renders were posted on Twitter by @rquant, showing a blocky tablet with Samsung's Book Cover Keyboard. Interestingly, Sammobile claims that this tablet will actually be called the Galaxy Tab S7 Fan Edition. Regardless, you can see that it's available in black, blue, silver, grey (or is it green?), and pink. You can also see the S Pen and the indent where it can be magnetically attached.

As mentioned, this is supposed to be a mid-range tablet. While the Galaxy Tab S7 is powered by the Snapdragon 865+ chipset, the Galaxy Tab S7 FE would use a Snapdragon 750G chipset instead. Other than that, most of its other hardware should be similar. This includes the 12.4-inch LCD panel and 10090mAh battery.

It's rumoured that Samsung plans to launch this new model in June 2021, which is just around the corner. Of course, nothing has been confirmed, so do take the news with a grain of salt. Having said that, what do you think of the leaked designs? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for further updates.


Renders of new realme Bluetooth speakers leaked, could launch first in India

A few months ago, realme surprised people by launching a Bluetooth speaker - the realme Cobble - in Malaysia. This is the company's first wireless speaker and it's probably not going to be the last. In fact, sources have found renders for a new model.

Thanks to Oyprice, renders of the new realme Bluetooth speaker have been revealed. Tentatively, let's call it the realme Cobble 2. Anyway, the new model's design has similarities to the realme Cobble. But there are definitely notable differences. Specifically, the new model seems to have a larger and thicker body. This should mean a more powerful speaker inside or a larger battery capacity.

For reference, the realme Cobble came with a 5W dynamic driver with a bass boost driver. It also had a 1500mAh battery that had an average rated playback time of 9 hours. Besides that, the Bluetooth speaker also had a Game mode for ultra-low 88ms latency and IPX5 water resistance, making it relatively safe for beach or pool parties.

Considering that realme Malaysia launched the Cobble here, there's a decent chance that this new model will also arrive in Malaysia. Having said that, what do you think about the design so far? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for further updates.


Renders of realme MagDart provides first look at MagSafe competitor

If you recall, sources found a trademark registration for a realme MagDart just a few days ago. realme is developing its answer to Apple's MagSafe, just from the name alone. Now, sources claim that there is not just one but two MagDart products.

According to Gizmochina, sources have revealed renders for the realme MagDart. The company's version of the magnetic wireless charger comes in two models. The first MagDart charger will be of similar size to the MagSafe Charger. This model has a sleeker design but will be charge slower than Apple's version with just 15W of power.

This model will allegedly support high-speed wireless charging

The interesting one is the second model that is much bulkier. Allegedly, it will offer fast wireless charging speeds comparable to wired charging speeds. Mind you, the 'fast' here is probably just around 50-60W. But that's still pretty fast for wireless charging. It'll definitely generate a lot of heat too, which would explain why this model comes with air intake grilles.

Now that renders have appeared, we can probably expect realme to launch the MagDart sooner than later. With that said, do you think a magnetic wireless charger is better than a regular one? Let us know in the comments, and stay tuned to TechNave for further updates on this.
