    Nothing Phone (2a) Community Edition

    The unreleased Nothing Phone also carries the FCC ID 2AZEQ-24111, which might just be a temporary ID. According to the report from 91Mobiles, there was a power of attorney submitted by Nothing to the FCC. This document mentions that the company prefers not to list the product on the certification site due to some adjustments in its marketing strategy. Therefore, we can look forward to the brand resubmitting the application at a later date.

    This is all the info we have right now about this model. Stay tuned for more updates as they come in. In related news, the company may also be developing the Nothing Phone (3a), which recently received certification in India.

    Infinix Note 50 FCC Certified, 45W Charging, Priced Under Rs 15k

    Infinix is preparing to introduce its Note 50 series, with one of its models recently found in the FCC certification database. This certification not only suggests that the device will be launched soon but also gives insights into its design and connectivity features.

    Design and Features Revealed

    The Infinix Note 50 series has been the talk of the town ever since it appeared in the GSMA database in October 2024, but detailed specifics about the smartphones have been kept secret—until now. Thanks to the FCC certification, we now have important information about the design and connectivity of the smartphone.

    Specifications from the FCC Listing

    The FCC listing shows the Infinix Note 50 identified by the model number X6858, with two color options—green and pink. The back of the phone features a rectangular camera module with rounded edges, positioned in the top-left corner. This camera module holds four lenses arranged in two rows: two larger lenses and one smaller lens on the left, along with a small lens and an LED flash on the right. The camera module blends with the rear body’s color, and the Infinix logo is placed in the bottom-left corner of the device.

    The dimensions of the Infinix Note 50 are 163.2 mm long, 74.4 mm wide, and 9 mm thick. The FCC listing indicates support for 2G, 3G, and 4G LTE connectivity on various bands, along with dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth (probably version 5.0 or newer), and NFC. The device will also feature fast charging capabilities of up to 45W. While we don’t know the exact battery capacity, the phone has a nominal voltage of 3.91V.

    Expected Models and Pricing

    The Note 50 series is likely to consist of several models: the Note 50, Note 50X, Note 50 Pro, and Note 50 Pro Plus 5G, with their respective model numbers being X6858, X6857, X6855, and X6856. If the launch follows a similar schedule as the previous model, the Infinix Note 40, the Note 50 series might make its appearance in Indonesia and other markets by early 2025.

    Regarding the prices, 91mobiles predicts that the Infinix Note 50 could be priced around IDR 2.8 million (~Rs 14,785) or could even go up to IDR 3 million, which is slightly more than its predecessor. The Note 40, which was launched in March 2024, began at a price of IDR 2.7 million.

  • Samsung Galaxy S25 Series Fast Charging Speeds Disappoint at FCC

    Samsung Galaxy S25 Series Fast Charging Speeds Disappoint at FCC

    Samsung is preparing to unveil its next generation flagship smartphones. Before the global announcement, the Galaxy S25 series has appeared on a significant certification, revealing some details about the devices. Sadly, there’s one area where these premium phones fall short.

    Galaxy S25 Series: Charging Speed Remains a Concern

    The Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra have been spotted on the FCC certification (via 91Mobiles), suggesting that their launch is just around the corner. Given that the South Korean tech giant introduced the Galaxy S24 series in January this year, it’s likely that the new models will follow a similar timeline. Besides these, there’s also speculation about a Galaxy S25 Slim model that could compete with the iPhone 17 Air.

    However, focusing on the main models, the entire lineup still lacks in the charging department. The FCC database shows the main trio with model numbers SM-931U, SM-936U, and SM-938U, all supporting 5G, Bluetooth, NFC, GNSS, and dual-band WiFi. Unfortunately, the Galaxy S25 is bundled with the EP-TA800 charging adapter, which only allows 25W fast charging. This is far behind what other Android competitors are offering. Even Apple has improved its charging speeds to match Samsung.

    Details on Charging Adapters

    On a brighter note, the Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra will come with a 45W fast charging adapter. The S25 Ultra will even include an S-Pen. However, it appears that Samsung may be lowering standards in wireless charging as well. The Galaxy S25 has been listed with just 9W wireless charging, a decrease from the 15W offered by its predecessor. This means we might not only be seeing outdated technology but potentially a downgrade. We’ll have to wait for the official launch to find out more, but perhaps we will see improvements in charging by 2026.

  • POCO C75 Receives FCC & EEC Certifications, Launch Imminent

    POCO C75 Receives FCC & EEC Certifications, Launch Imminent

    Yesterday, we exclusively reported that the POCO C75 appeared in the IMEI database, confirming its name. Now, the device has surfaced on the FCC certification website and has also secured EEC certification. These listings suggest that the smartphone’s launch is imminent. The upcoming model is anticipated to be the successor to last year’s POCO C65. Read further to get more information.

    POCO C75 Receives FCC Certification

    The POCO C75 is featured on the FCC website with the model number 2410FPCC5G. According to the listing, the smartphone will operate on HyperOS 1.0, which is based on Android 14. It will support LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth, and NFC connectivity. The certification, however, does not disclose any other details about the smartphone. The EEC listing indicates that the device will be released in European markets.

    Currently, details about the POCO C75 are limited. We anticipate that the device will receive more certifications and appear in leaks and rumors in the upcoming weeks. In our previous report, we mentioned that according to the HyperOS source code, the POCO C75 has internal model numbers C3N and C3NL. The source mentions the Helio G81 processor, but we believe this might be an error since it is a downgrade compared to the G85 chipset that powers the C65.

    Recap of POCO C65 Specifications

    The POCO C65 features a 6.7-inch 90Hz display with an HD+ resolution. It includes a 50MP primary camera, a 2MP secondary camera, and an 8MP front-facing camera. The device is powered by a Helio G85 processor, offering up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. It is equipped with a 5,000mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging via a USB-C port.

In comparison, the Pixel 8’s dimensions are 150.5mm x 70.8mm, suggesting that the Pixel 9 is slightly larger than its predecessor. While Google excels at creating compact smartphones, they are not as small as Samsung’s regular S lineup models, like the S24.

The camera setup includes a 50MP main camera and a 2MP depth sensor on the rear, while the front features an 8MP camera for selfies.

  • Meizu Note 21 and Note 21 Pro Receive FCC Certification

    Meizu Note 21 and Note 21 Pro Receive FCC Certification

    Meizu is set to release two budget-friendly smartphones, the Meizu Note 21 and Note 21 Pro. These devices are considered affordable mainly because they lack 5G support. According to FCC certification, both models only support 4G connections, suggesting that they may not be available in all regions. We first noticed these devices about a month ago.

    Meizu Note 21 & Note 21 Pro

    The Meizu Note 21 and Note 21 Pro are likely to be available in several regions worldwide. However, the exact countries where they will be sold remain unknown. The FCC certification has revealed significant details about these smartphones, including design features, connectivity options, and more.

    Meizu Note 21 M411H

    The Meizu Note 21 will feature three rear cameras and a flash. Its model number is M411H, and it will come with the Android 14 operating system pre-installed. The dimensions of the device are 167.8mm in length, 77.4mm in width, and 9.1mm in thickness, making it relatively thick.

    The Note 21 series does not support 5G or Wi-Fi 6. Instead, the devices are compatible with 2G/3G/4G and Wi-Fi 5 connections. It is unlikely that these devices will be sold in Europe, as they lack LTE FDD B20 band support. Additionally, the Meizu Note 21 will feature a large 6000mAh battery.

    Meizu Note 21 Pro

    The Meizu Note 21 Pro will have two rear cameras and an LED flash, with the model number M412H. This smartphone will also be released with the Android 14 operating system. It measures 168.5mm in length, 76.6mm in width, and 8.35mm in thickness, making it thinner and potentially more aesthetically pleasing compared to the Note 21.

    In terms of connectivity, the Note 21 Pro offers similar features to the Meizu Note 21, including NFC support. The battery capacity for the Note 21 Pro is 4950mAh. We first spotted these smartphones a month ago, and now that they have passed FCC certification, more details have come to light. Meizu is expected to announce the Note 21 series soon.


  • OnePlus Pad Pro Rumors Heat Up with Keyboard and Stylus on FCC

    OnePlus Pad Pro Rumors Heat Up with Keyboard and Stylus on FCC

    While the release of the standard OnePlus Pad 2 appears to be delayed, it seems the company is developing another premium tablet. This speculation is supported by information from reputable tipster Digital Chat Station, who disclosed on the Chinese social media platform Weibo that OnePlus might soon unveil a Pro variant known as the OnePlus Pad Pro.

    Supporting Evidence

    Adding weight to these claims, a OnePlus-branded keyboard and stylus accessory have been spotted on the FCC certification database. According to Chinese publication ITHome, these accessories are designed for the anticipated Pad Pro.

    The database listing specifies a keyboard with the model number OPK2402, produced by Tinlong Mobile. This keyboard features a conventional six-row key layout, a sizable touchpad, and an NFC chip located in the right-hand wrist rest area.

    Design Insights

    The design on the back of the keyboard case also provides clues about the camera placement on the rumored OnePlus Pad Pro. It displays a circular camera cutout in the center of the back, similar to the original OnePlus Pad’s layout.

    The FCC filing additionally describes a corresponding stylus marked with the model number OPN2402. The stylus is reported to utilize an FPC Bluetooth antenna, hinting at wireless connectivity features like pressure sensitivity.

    Awaiting Official Confirmation

    While the FCC documents do not explicitly verify the existence of a OnePlus Pad Pro, the timing and design elements strongly imply that these accessories are meant for a new tablet from OnePlus. Whether this tablet is indeed the OnePlus Pad Pro remains unconfirmed.

    It is crucial to remember that these are currently just rumors, and OnePlus has not yet made any official announcements about the OnePlus Pad Pro or its accessories. We will have to wait for additional leaks or an official statement from OnePlus to ascertain what the company plans for the tablet market.
