Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus: A Mid-Ranger Smartphone Worth You

When it comes to the smartphone industry, trends come up, evolve and go away just as fast. Right now, we are in the era of big screens but how much big a screen gets depends solely on the price point. However, emerging global smartphone makers realize this gap and turned their eyes on the mid-range set and came up with outstanding daily drivers that are not only friendly to the pocket, but offer quality phones which are value money. Let’s talk about the Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus launched in December 2017.

Redmi 5 plus

It is a worthy successor to the Redmi Note 4 with a lot of packed upgrades. It retails at less than 200$ which is friendly for most given it is a tall 6-inch screen. The Redmi 5 plus ships out in black, gold, blue and their specific colour which they like to call Rose Gold. It has a nice feel to the hand being an aluminium frame and back, front glass and plastic ends which feel quality and premium. Weighing at 180 grams, it is very comfortable to hold and carry around.

About its display, it is an IPS LCD Capacitive touchscreen with the capacitive buttons being discarded and on-screen navigation buttons incorporated. The phone, however, is not IPS certified so no water-proofing for this one but it is quite alright for a device at this price-point. Its resolution being 18:9 aspect ratio, 1080 by 2160 pixel and 403 ppi density give out sharp images with excellent contrast-rich for everyday use.

Xiaomi decided to go with Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 chipset with Adreno 506 GPU. Although this is not the newest silicon out there, it compares quite alright and holds up to many games and applications of an average user. The phone comes packed with a massive battery of 4000mAh which combined with an efficient chipset the phone posts an impressive 104hour endurance rating. The phone is quite welcoming to the consumers especially when it comes to the battery life of a smartphone.

The Redmi 5 plus comes either in 64GB or 32 GB of internal storage upgradable to 128 GB. It is a hybrid dual SIM giving the consumer the option of using two numbers; a trend that is highly becoming popular especially in third world countries. It runs on a custom interface MIUI 10 on top of Android 7.1.2 which is upgradable to Android 8 (Oreo) offering more software features that enhance the user experience.

Its camera stands out being a 12MP, f/2.2 and being able to shoot at 4K; a feature very rare for a phone in the midrange section. The company decided to stick with the old 5MP selfie camera.  But it offers sharp images with a wide dynamic range and less noise. Due to camera software upgrades, it has a rear-mounted fingerprint reader which is very fast and responsive.


The Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus is a good phone, quality in its build and able to withstand the test of time in relevancy. At that price point, Xiaomi sets up other competitors a good run for their money. For more discounts to buy this phone, please go to Banggood

Xiaomi A1 mobile phone has been upgraded by Android 8.1, but had little accident -part 2

And now, the latest Xiaomi 6X has released.

Xiaomi A1 is the first Android One project smartphone jointly launched by Xiaomi and Google. The phone was released on September 5, 2017. It may be because of the recent news that Xiaomi A2 will be released in the near future, so many people have also set their sights on the Xiaomi A1 that was popular in the international market last year.

Xiaomi A1 mobile phone has been upgraded by Android 8.1, but had little accident -part 1

Xiaomi A1 is a smartphone launched by Xiaomi and Google in September 2017. It is the first smartphone of Xiaomi to participate in the evolution of the Android One project. According to media GSMarena news, Xiaomi A1 is currently updating Android 8.1, but Xiaomi still has not announced the specific time of release, and the A1 phone has not yet received Google Treble support. However, GSMarena said that Xiaomi is closing the Android 8.1 update with the June security patch, which means that the smartphone is not far from the new push, perhaps in early July.

In fact, there has been Android 8.1 beta of Xiaomi A1 before, but because it is a beta version, the new firmware also has bugs. After the media GizChina.it confirmed that the Xiaomi A1 Android 8.1 camera program is not available yet, the user can replace it with a Google camera. After a month of testing, I believe that Xiaomi A1's Android 8.1 will be pushed soon.

Mi A1

In addition, the new system has updated the power menu, settings and SystemUI themes which can also be adaptive wallpaper colors and more.

The front panel uses the mainstream 2.5D glass, which is matched with a special green metal cut surface to make the transition of the middle frame very natural. The R angle of the edge is very smooth, ensuring the look and feel of the user's hand.

The back of the mobile phone can be said to be an alternative to the traditional mobile phone and adopts a design with a middle height and a low side. With the "X" antenna, users will be mistaken that this phone has been wearing a mobile phone case. What's even cooler is that the LOGO on the back is a breathing light. In addition to the caller information, but also a lot of games have been adapted, with different game scenes the LOGO will flash, very personalized.

In addition to the luxurious processor configuration, the Xiaomi Black Shark mobile phone has two other black technologies. The first is to add an independent image processing chip, which brings motion estimation and motion compensation technology to compensate for the motion signal transmission. There is not enough frame number after the occurrence. The second is a multi-stage direct-touch integrated liquid cooling system, which can effectively reduce the problem of heat generation.

3 advantages of using a good micro USB cable

Many of the latest technologies are ready to accept the USB cable as standard. It began to appear with some new versions such as the Apple device and Android. It is now more and more available and is appreciated for many reasons, including its ability to run faster when transferring data or charging smartphones or laptops. Here are three of the most attractive features of this USB cable:
Reversible connector
The micro usb cable is designed to be reversible, so it is much easier to connect the laptop or other devices. It does not matter how the connector is plugged in or what end of the connector is plugged in; this cable is still able to work as expected. A big advantage of this is the ability to use these cables on the widest range of devices on the market. All the latest operating systems (Chrome, Android, Windows and iOS etc.) are gradually moving to this technology.

micro usb cable

It's much faster
The latest micro USB cable can run at a fast pace and quickly charge external devices such as smartphones or e-readers. The fastest speeds are achieved when the USB-C and USB 3.1 jacks can work together. One of the main reasons for this is the ability to push up to 100W of power compared to previous standards that were limited to around 10W. An added benefit of improved speed is the ability to terminate file transfers from an external hard drive faster.

Greater versatility
The micro USB cable is extremely versatile and convenient in many different situations. You do not need to use different socket and cable sizes for a device such as a laptop, smartphone, or printer. In addition, it can assume multiple roles and perform several tasks at a time. For example, it can transfer data and load a device at the same time. Other practical uses include the ability to connect a laptop to an external display.

Why you should buy a smart watch - part 2

Resistant to the test of time
We have become used to a one-year smartphone and tablet life cycle, especially in the case of Apple. But do we need a newer version of a smart watch within a year of buying the current watch? Especially if the updates of the platform will make serious complications in use, say two to three years later. People often get used to their old wristwatches and do not like to change them. If you are one of these people, would you treat a smart watch differently?

smart watch

Benefits of buying a smart watch
1. They are more useful than ever
For starters, smart watches are no longer awkward, clumsy and hard to use. The recently released models look a lot more appealing and have tons of features. For example, Xiaomi is equipped with a side camera that rests on the strap and can take quick photos. In addition, the Android and iOS platforms have greatly improved and become more user-friendly, providing users with a more stable experience with fewer bugs.

2. They use technology at a whole new level
Smart watches have managed to nail the technology industry. Although the arrival of these new gadgets came with a false start, manufacturers have now been able to significantly refine the design and tweak the technologies used, creating masterpieces with many features. For example, the Apple Watch is equipped with beautiful rotating glasses that make it beautiful on your hand.

You can now use your smart watch to keep yourself in charge, answer calls, type messages, save photos, voice record, browse the Internet, buy a new product online or turn off the dormitory light, or start an air conditioner remotely.

4. Talking to your wrist is quite fancy
Another reason the smart watch industry is trendy is the simple message they convey: talking to your wrist is a futuristic action, something that gives you a great look and gives you the feeling of control.

Why you should buy a smart watch - part 1

Although smart watches have been around since the 80s, they have received a wave of appeal over the past two years. One of the main reasons why smart watches are becoming more popular these days may be because they are not what they used to be, and they are instead engaging in sports and because of the latest advanced smartwatch, people do not have to use telephone services while having exercises. It's more of a sport wearable technology device on your wrist; it will only work if it is connected to your smartphone in a specific range. Smart watches are designed to provide you with basic notifications such as calls, texts, e-mails, and even allow you to respond to them.

smart watch

Characteristics of a perfect smart watch
Universally designed
This is a very subjective point since tastes differ, and everyone can not like the design of the smart watch. It's a laborious task to design something that will fit right on your wrist when you wear your costume. It should be mentioned that we have different arms and choose watches of different sizes and styles to fit ours.

Compatible
Existing examples of such watches are complementary to the more functional and powerful devices and services of their ecosystems; they are aggregators of features and information from other smart devices. The smart watch is currently compatible with a limited number of apples, Android smartphones and phablets. Such a limitation is not good news if you want your product to become mainstream, with all the diversity of Android devices. And if Apple finally decides to launch a smart watch, the question of compatibility will not be so difficult to manage, because Apple knows how to polish its products and services. Of course, Apple and Samsung are not your only choices. In fact, there are many different brands in the market now producing good-quality smartwatches which are as powerful as Apple Watch but not that expensive, like Xiaomi, HUAWEI.

Everything you don’t know but you should know about the Huawei Mate 10 Pro - part 3

The other key element of the Mate 10 Pro is its wide screen - or Huawei FullView screen, as the company's marketeers will say. Unrelated to the fancy name, the ultra-trim bezel means that the 6-inch screen completely dominates the face side of the device. It is superb because there are not too many heads and shoulders, as you will find on the big Pixel 2 XL.

Huawei also joins other manufacturers in transitioning to an elongated screen, adopting a ratio of 18: 9 for better one-handed fit, with resolution loads for the first time in the Mate series. Yes, the 10 Pro stands out from the Full HD shackles of Mate 9, with a resolution of 2160*1080 which looks great (if it rings low on the vertical, it is because of the thin ratio 18: 9).

Huawei Mate 10 Pro

The special feature of the Huawei Mate 10 Pro is the absence of physical buttons on the front. Many have become so accustomed to using a Home key, or even gestures, that the removal of such a key seems strange at first. Huawei has tried to tackle this problem with what they call a "floating key" - a software version of a home key, which you can position anywhere around the screen to meet your needs. Press to go back, press and hold to return to the Home screen, drag to open applications.

The idea of the floating dock is interesting, but the execution is not perfect: we think that Huawei should offer customized commands in the settings of this soft button, as you do in Windows for trackpad commands, for micro-adjust its sensitivity that a press needs to be - because we have too often moved the dock to a new position rather than dragging it. 

Everything you don’t know but you should know about the Huawei Mate 10 Pro - part 2

Huawei noted that the Mate 10 Pro uses 6H toughened glass, which makes it tougher than ever. But, as former users of Honor 9 - a device with a 6.7H glass in the front and back - we saw this phone, which we really loved and enjoyed, covered with all kinds of scratches. The Mate 10 Pro fought better over time, although a disastrous fall will cause a crack in the back glass (sad face) eventually.

Huawei Mate 10 Pro

One of the main features of the Huawei Mate 10 Pro is that there are no physical buttons at the front (as is the case on the "standard" Mate 10 that does not arrive in the UK). The fingerprint scanner is conveniently placed at the back, under the dual camera layout - both are protruding slightly, to avoid touching them when searching for the recessed fingerprint scanner - which generally feels well positioned, if not a little too high at the back. It avoids the frankly insane positioning of the fingerprint scanner on the side of the camera, as is the case in the less pretty Samsung Galaxy S8.

Other features of Mate 10 Pro include dust and water tightness - which we found very handy when riding in the pouring rain with the phone in a back pocket. This feature is Huawei's excuse for not giving the Mate 10 Pro a 3.5mm headphone jack, although we think this is a nonsense charge. Twice in a week, our Bluetooth headphones do not have a battery, so we went to connect via the cable - only to remind us that there are none and, yes, we looked like a fool. But anyway, it is waterproof in a professional way, and also has the headphone jack, which is the best solution from the perspective of the users.

Everything you don’t know but you should know about the Huawei Mate 10 Pro - part 1

Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. provides networking products and telecommunication solutions. The company conducts research and develops access to the Internet, the transmission network, servers, storage, security and other networking products. Huawei Technologies also offers business consulting, network integration, assurance, management, learning and service delivery services worldwide. Although Huawei has had its share of highs and lows since entering the smartphone market - the Mate 10 that has not quite reached the mark, especially on the reflection of the best and cheapest Honor 9 - this has not been a blip compared to Google's quality control issues with the LG Pixel 2 XL, or the silent plodding-along with the LG V30.

Huawei Mate 10 Pro

Do you see a theme developing? Yes, since 2017, it's "glass, glass, glass, glass, glass". The Huawei Mate 10 Pro joins the iPhone 8 Plus by adopting a glass back - which is beautiful thanks to its subtle curve and glossy finish. There is even a band at the back that crosses the cameras, to add a bigger definition.

At least, that's what the Mate 10 Pro will look like right out of the box. The obvious problem, as we have seen, is that the fingerprint needs to be erased in a few moments after each manipulation. This is not the worst of the worst, but we often polished it on our t-shirt before showing it to anyone. Of course, some people would not mind this little detail.

The another inevitable feature with glass is that it tends to spoil. Drop it and it will crash. Do not worry about it and it will have scratch anyway. But just take good care of it, for examples, use a nice phone case to protect the back, and it will keep new, shiny and pretty.

3D glasses, a new must-have (part 2)

3D television technology is still relatively new, so it is not surprising that most consumers (and many reviewers) are still trying to sort through all of the manufacturer's claims, understand what they mean and what they should do next. There are contradictory and unfounded statements about 3D television technologies that are harrassingly made, as in the classic tale of The Emperor's New Clothes. The purpose of this article is to provide detailed objective test results that will allow you to decide what is really there or not. But the most important question is whether any of these technologies are able to provide a pleasant and convincing 3D visualization experience - we will answer them below, but first we will back it up with a lot of objective evidence.

There are a number of very interesting (and often misunderstood) 3D imaging and visualization issues that need to be addressed for these two 3D television technologies in order to correct incorrect and confusing information about them. This article will provide an objective and in-depth analysis of both 3D technologies. We have a lot of measurement data, which provides a lot of objective evidence, but the most interesting and important part of the 3D evaluation is the 3D imaging and visualization itself, and that only happens inside the brain, so the instruments can not help in this part of the evaluation. We used a lot of high quality 3D content, including 3D movies, photos, images and test patterns. We will describe a series of quantifiable 3D visual tests that anyone can duplicate to verify our findings and conclusions on 3D TV imaging.

This Highlights section contains a summary of the most important results of the Shoot-Out of 3D TV display technology. All details, including measurements and analysis, are documented in the sections dedicated to each topic. If you're new to 3D, do not forget to read our Overview of 3D Vision and Technology and our overview of 3D Glasses.

3D glasses, a new must-have (part 1)

It is not enough to be determined. Equipment is the key to success. The right level will move the world, but the smartest is to think first and have the essence of improvisation. Whatever the task, it is better to tackle it with the right equipment.

Is 3D TV a necessity?
The first generation of 3D TVs was launched in the spring of 2010 with great enthusiasm, but failed to generate enough enthusiasm among consumers and retail activity, so that sales of the first year proved disappointing. There are many reasons for this: many consumers had recently upgraded to HDTV and were reluctant to switch back to 3D HDTV. Most new technologies are expensive and often have performance issues - in fact, many 3D TVs received poor ratings. There was not a lot of 3D content to watch. Consumers did not care about the cumbersome and expensive 3D glasses that needed to be worn to watch 3D TV.

All 2010 3D TV models - both LCD and Plasma - need active shutter glasses, which have high-speed LCD shutters for each eye that are electronically synchronized with the right and left sequential images generated by the TV all the 1 / 120th of a second. The year 2011 has resulted in much more 3D content available and two important developments in 3D technology: a new generation of 3D televisions with active shutter glasses, and a new 3D television technology called Film Pattern Retarder (RPF), which uses very light and inexpensive passive glasses that are similar to ordinary polarized sunglasses and identical to the 3D Glasses used in most 3D movie theaters. FPR 3D TV does not need high-speed electronic shutters because it uses circular polarized light filters to keep left and right images separate for each eye.

Huawei mobile phone will support wireless charging

From March 14th to 16th, the AirFuel Wireless Charging Conference and Developer Forum were held in Shenzhen. Huawei, a member of the AirFuel Wireless Power Consortium and the WPC Wireless Power Consortium, has its Huawei Watt Lab share relevant information on the smartphone AirFuel wireless charging technology. This indirectly confirms that Huawei's mobile phones will support wireless charging, or will be even compatible with the Qi standard AirFuel magnetic resonance wireless charging technology.

Although Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huaweis consumer business, earlier said that wireless charging is too slow and the experience is poor. It also stated that Huawei had wireless charging capability as early as 6 years ago because it was of little significance and could not bring practical use value to users, so it was stopped. However, in the face of Apple's new iPhone all equipped with wireless charging, and domestic and foreign manufacturers have updated the environment, Huawei is hard to avoid.

It is understood that Huawei's P20 Porsche will support wireless charging, which will use the US IDT wireless reception program, supporting wireless charger, and it will be announced at the end of the month. This news is not groundless. At this AirFuel conference, Huawei Watt Lab indirectly confirmed this news. Watt Lab gave some suggestions on how to improve the performance of AirFuel technology on smartphones. In the short term, it should adopt the combination of Qi and AirFuel wireless charging solutions, and long-term can achieve a separate AirFuel solution.

In addition, the presentation slide revealed that Huawei is studying a multi-device wireless charging technology similar to Apple's AirPower. AirPower is a wireless charging board developed by Apple that can wirelessly charge iPhone 8/X, AirPods and Apple Watch at the same time. We believe that in the near future we will see Huawei's support for multi-device wireless charging accessories. Of course, before this, Huawei has to release devices that support wireless charging, such as Huawei mobile phones and Huawei smartwatches.

Huawei mobile phone wireless charging function can be said to be imperative and might use the Qi standard AirFuel magnetic resonance wireless charging technology.

Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker mini version exposure

On March 18th, at the Xiaomi Community Forum, some netizens exposed the mini version of Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker. Some netizens released some photos of Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker mini version at the factory. Still using the white minimalist style, the fuselage curve is much more rounded than the older version. Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker mini size has not much difference in appearance with the Xiaomi TV box, the top is the control area, the netizen also said that the Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker mini is only 199 yuan, about 30 US dollars, compared with many smart speakers, such as Amazon Echo, Apple HomePod, Google Home, etc. is so much cheaper.

The interaction area is a small disk, mainly to adjust sound +-, pause, and other keys, although there is no obvious reference, I feel the size of this speaker should not exceed 25cm.

Tang Mu, vice president of Xiaomi's ecological chain and head of the Xiaomi Exploration Laboratory, also said that on March 27, in addition to releasing the Xiaomi MIX 2S, Xiaomi Ai will also have little surprise. From this speculation, Xiaomi may launch Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker mini at Xiaomi MIX 2S conference. From the last version of this smart speaker price of 299 yuan, it might be true that the Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker mini costs only 199 yuan.

Xiaomi AI Smart Speaker was jointly developed by the three teams of Xiaomi Television, Xiaomi Artificial Intelligence, and Xiaomi Exploration Laboratory. In terms of functions, the limited edition of Xiaoai Speaker supports massive Internet content such as online music, comic dialogue, children's stories, and radio stations. It also supports weather inquiries, traffic inquiries, relatives' inquiries, and mobile phone searches. And it can also control vacuum robots, air conditioners, air purifiers, TVs, fans, smart lights, TV boxes, rice cookers and other eight categories of equipment.

The xiaomi ai speaker is an artificial intelligence speaker released by Xiaomi Company on July 26, 2017. It is equipped with its AI speaker and can also control third-party products through their smart sockets and patch panels.

Apple Watch might save your life?

According to a tech blog TechCrunch reported on February 7, a new clinical research report released by health technology startup Cardiogram said Apple's Apple Watch can detect diabetes symptoms previously diagnosed with diabetes, with an accuracy rate of 85%.

The study is part of a project entitled "DeepHeart" jointly conducted by Cardiogram and the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). The survey tracked 14,000 Apple Watch users wearing Apple Watch and detected 462 respondents with diabetes through the Apple Watch heart rate sensor with an 85% accuracy rate.

In 2015, the Framingham Heart Study, a health organization, released a report that resting heart rate and heart rate variability predict diabetes and hypertension, a finding that has driven the industry to develop smart meters that accurately detect diabetes symptoms using a smart bracelet heart rate sensor.

Earlier, Cardiogram's founder, Brandon Ballinger and his colleagues used Apple Watch to detect a variety of heart-related diseases in combination with their own artificial intelligence techniques, with an accurate heart rate anomaly detection rate of up to 97%, sleep apnea accuracy rate of 90%, high blood pressure test accuracy of up to 82%. Most of these studies have been published in clinical journals or abstracts, and Ballinger intends to publish this latest research at AAAI 2018 this week.

According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 100 million adults in the United States currently have diabetes, and more than a quarter of them are undiagnosed, in part because of the pain associated with blood sugar testing: People with diabetes usually tingle themselves with diabetes tests after each meal to take the right amount of insulin to maintain the body's blood-sugar balance.

Ballinger said in the future his research team may be through the heart sensor to detect some diseases, and may even include gestational diabetes. Bollinger also warned that those who are already diagnosed with early symptoms of diabetes should go to the hospital in a timely, rather than rely solely on Apple Watch to guide the next health treatment program.
