  • Redmi Compact Flagship: 6.3-Inch Display & 6000mAh Battery

    Redmi Compact Flagship: 6.3-Inch Display & 6000mAh Battery

    Redmi is anticipated to unveil its K80 series smartphones in November, which will include both a standard model and a Pro version. However, it appears that these aren’t the only devices in development. Recent leaks from China indicate that Redmi is also looking to launch a compact sub-flagship phone.

    Rumors About a Compact Phone

    The information comes from the well-known leaker Digital Chat Station (DCS), who hinted last Wednesday that Redmi may be working on a smaller phone, asking, “Do you think Redmi needs a high-performance small-screen phone?” Yesterday, DCS shared some important specifications for this upcoming device. According to DCS, Redmi is “internally” planning to release a “small-screen phone” featuring a 6.3-inch display. Even with its smaller size, the phone might boast a 6000mAh battery if the leak holds true.

    Possible Trade-offs

    Despite the compact design, there could be some trade-offs. The leaker suggests that the phone will not have a telephoto lens nor support for wireless charging, but reassures that it will be a “high-performance sub-flagship.” Recently, Vivo launched a compact flagship, the X200 Pro Mini, as part of its high-end range. This trend towards compact phones seems to be gaining traction this year. DCS previously hinted that the “top five” smartphone brands are “evaluating” small-screen devices. It appears that Redmi will be among those brands.

    Uncertain Series Association

    It’s still uncertain to which Redmi series this phone will belong. It could potentially be part of the upcoming K-series or the performance-oriented Turbo series. If it is included in the K80 lineup, we might see the phone launched in November alongside the K80 and K80 Pro. The K80 Pro is rumored to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite, while the standard K80 could come equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset.

    A Redmi executive has hinted at a possible increase in pricing for these smartphones. For reference, the Redmi K70 and K70 Pro were initially priced at 2,499 Yuan (~$355) and 3,299 Yuan (~$465), respectively.

  • Red Magic 10 Pro: Snapdragon 8 Elite, 6500mAh, Launch in November

    Red Magic 10 Pro: Snapdragon 8 Elite, 6500mAh, Launch in November

    An upcoming Nubia smartphone with the model number NX789J has received the green light from the MIIT authority in China. To remind you, the Red Magic 9 Pro from last year carried the model number NX769J. This suggests that the NX789J could very well be the Red Magic 10 Pro.

    What to Anticipate from Red Magic 10 Pro

    The MIIT certification for the Red Magic 10 Pro hasn’t disclosed any major details about its specs. Nevertheless, it does indicate that a launch in China is on the horizon. Likely, we could see it officially introduced as soon as next month (November) in China.

    Gaming Powerhouse on the Way

    The forthcoming Xiaomi 15 series, OnePlus 13, Honor Magic 7 series, iQOO 13, and Realme GT 7 Pro are expected to come equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. However, the Red Magic 10 Pro is set to be a smartphone that’s entirely dedicated to gaming, powered by the same chipset.

    As per reports, the Red Magic 10 Pro is likely to come with its own gaming chip, an active cooling system built-in, and specialized gaming buttons. One of its most impressive features is the gigantic battery, rumored to exceed 6500mAh, which could make it the device with the largest battery capacity featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite.

    Enhanced Display and Features

    The Red Magic 10 Pro is also anticipated to showcase a 1.5K resolution OLED full-screen display, making use of the latest under-display camera tech for selfies. These leaked specifications imply that the Red Magic 10 Pro will mark a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the Red Magic 9 Pro series.

    For some background, the Red Magic 9 Pro had a 6.8-inch BOE Q9+ panel with the company’s fifth-generation under-display gaming screen, achieving a remarkable 93.7% screen-to-body ratio. The device was powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 platform, LPDDR5X RAM, UFS 4.0 storage, and had a 6,500mAh battery with support for 80W charging. Furthermore, it featured the self-developed Red Core R2 Pro chip for an improved gaming experience and a new alloy fan for better cooling.

    Changes to Control Center

    OxygenOS 15 is said to come with a redesigned control center, which seems to take inspiration from both iOS and HyperOS. Swiping down from the left corner of the screen may reveal the notification panel, while swiping down from the right could open the Control Centre.

    This is anticipated to be one of the most significant visual updates in OnePlus’s latest custom interface. The new design is rumored to include a media player in a 2×2 grid format, a brightness slider in a 1×2 format, and volume controls arranged in a 1×2 grid.

    Upcoming OnePlus 13 Expectations

    The OnePlus 13 flagship is likely to be launched shortly after the new chip is revealed, possibly in October. Xiaomi and iQOO are also expected to unveil their latest flagship devices around the same period.

    A previous leak suggested that the OnePlus 13 might feature a custom version of the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip that aims to enhance energy efficiency. The device is also rumored to be equipped with a large 6,000mAh battery, which should support 100W fast charging.

    On the display front, it’s believed that the phone could sport a 2K LTPO display along with a triple 50MP camera arrangement on the rear.

  • OnePlus 13 Render Reveals Minimal Design Changes

    OnePlus 13 Render Reveals Minimal Design Changes

    OnePlus is preparing to launch its upcoming flagship phone, the OnePlus 13, later this month. Although the company hasn’t officially began its marketing campaign for the device, various leaks and speculations have provided a wealth of information.

    Latest Design Leaks

    Recently, well-known Weibo leaker Digital Chat Station posted the first design render of the OnePlus 13. The image was later removed from the post, which is a usual tactic by DCS for exclusive leaks, but we were able to capture the image before it was taken down.

    Insights into the Rear Design

    From the render, it’s clear that the phone retains the familiar circular camera module positioned on the left side. However, the previous grille extending from the camera to the edge has been replaced with a narrow strip connecting to the right frame, just beneath the Hasselblad logo.

    At a quick glance, the design doesn’t appear to introduce any groundbreaking changes, yet OnePlus has made some subtle modifications to enhance it. Compared to earlier models, this version seems to have a more polished look.

    Real-Life Comparisons

    We also have a real-world image of the supposed OnePlus 13 in white, next to the Oppo Find X8. While we can’t verify if this is indeed the OnePlus 13 until the brand officially announces it, both the render and the actual image align with what we’ve previously observed in Qualcomm’s earlier video.

    What we do know for sure is that the device will feature a BOE X2 display, which is said to provide improved brightness, enhanced outdoor visibility, and better eye protection. It’s highly likely that the phone will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip.

    Expected Features and Specs

    Additionally, according to various leaks, the OnePlus 13 is anticipated to include a slightly curved 2K LTPO display, a triple rear camera system with three 50MP lenses, and support for 50W magnetic wireless charging.

    The phone is expected to house a dual-cell 5840mAh battery, allowing for 100W SUPERVOOC fast charging as well as magnetic wireless charging capabilities.
