The Redmi 13C 5G comes just six months after the launch of the Redmi 12C, but brings along some hefty updates. Key among these updates is 5G-connectivity, which also makes this smartphone, Xiaomi's lowest priced 5G offering in the entry-level to budget segment. There are also other upgrades to the processor and more compared to the Redmi 12C, which have been detailed in our first impressions. Xiaomi has also launched a 4G version of its new model called the ‘Redmi 13C'. Redmi 13C 5G and Redmi 13C price in India, availability The Redmi 13C 5G will be available in three RAM and storage variants. There's a 4GB + 128GB variant which is priced at Rs. 9,999, a 6GB + 128GB variant priced at Rs. 11,499 and an 8GB + 256GB variant priced at Rs. 13,499 in India. The model is offered in two colours - Startrail Silver, Startrail Green, and Starlight Black. The Redmi 13C (4G model) will also be available in three RAM and storage variants. There's a 4GB + 128GB variant which is priced at Rs. 7,999, a 6GB + 128GB variant priced at Rs. 8,999, and an 8GB + 256GB variant priced at Rs. 10,499 in India. The model is offered in four colours - Stardust Black and Star Shine Green. Redmi has confirmed that the Redmi 13C 4G variant will go on sale in India starting December 12, whereas the Redmi 13C 5G will be available for purchase from December 16 onwards on Amazon, the Mi online store, and other online retailers. Redmi 13C 5G and Redmi 13C specifications, features The Redmi 13C 5G has a 6.74-inch HD+ (1,600 x 720 pixels) LCD display with a maximum refresh rate of 90Hz and touch sampling rate of 180Hz. The phone runs MIUI 14, but it's based on Android 13. It offers a triple-slot SIM card tray with two slots for Nano SIM cards and a dedicated slot of a microSD card (supports up to 1TB). The phone is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ SoC and offers up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB of UFS2.2 internal storage. For optics, the rear camera setup includes two cameras, out of which only one is accessible by the user. This includes a 50-megapixel primary camera with an f/1.8 aperture and a second camera for gathering depth data when using Portrait mode. Selfies are handled by a 5-megapixel front-facing camera with an f/2.2 aperture and its embedded into a U-shaped (dot drop) notch at the top of the display. The phone houses a 5,000mAh battery but now offers 18W charging support unlike the previous model. However, Xiaomi only offers a 10W charger in the box, which means that buyers will have to purchase the 18W charger separately. Xiaomi does not provide an official IP rating for this device, but simply states that its is splash resistant and offers dust protection. The phone supports several 5G bands (SA: n1/n3/n5/n8/n28/n40/n78, NSA: n1/n3/n40/n78/n8) and dual standby as well. There's Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.3, support for the usual global positioning systems, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C port as well. Redmi 13C specifications, features The Redmi 13C, which is the 4G variant, has similar specifications. It has a similar 6.74-inch HD+ (1,600 x 720 pixels) LCD dot drop display with a 90Hz refresh rate and runs MIUI 14, which is based on Android 13. The phone offers a triple-slot SIM card tray with two slots for the Nano SIM cards and a dedicated slot of a microSD card. However, the 4G model is powered by the same MediaTek Helio G85 SoC that powered the Redmi 12C. This model is offered with up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and + 256GB of eMMC 5.1 internal storage. Unlike the 5G model, the Redmi 13C offers a triple rear camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary camera with an f/1.8 aperture, a 2-megapixel macro camera with an f/2.4 aperture, and a third camera for gathering depth data. Selfies are handled by an 8-megapixel front-facing camera with a brighter f/2.0 aperture. Just like the 5G model, the Redmi 13C is backed by a 5,000mAh battery and supports 18W charging but will only be offered with a 10W charger in the box. The phone supports 4G bands with dual standby as well. There's dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.3, support for the usual global positioning systems, a 3.5mm headphone jack and a USB Type-C port as well.

While the rumor mill has been putting some stock in the idea that the next version of Microsoft’s operating system will be called Windows 12, and it’s expected to turn up next year, a little doubt has now sprung up around this. Regular leaker @XenoPanther on X (formerly Twitter) was digging around in Windows (policy definitions, pretty dry stuff) and stumbled upon a reference to ‘Windows 11 24H2.’ As the leaker notes, this could be a typo, as the references seem to skip from Windows 11 22H2 to 24H2, so maybe this is supposed to read 23H2? If it is correct, though, it’s an early indication that the next version of Microsoft’s OS will be the 24H2 update for Windows 11 – rather than Windows 12 as rumored. In other words, Windows 12 may not be coming next year, or at least that’s the conclusion some folks are rapidly drawing on social media thanks to this leak. Analysis: Possible placeholder? Putting the possibility that this is a mistake to one side – which it certainly could be – jumping to conclusions really is premature here. Even if it isn’t an error, a mere mention of Windows 11 24H2 could be a placeholder name for next year’s release, of course. It is, however, at least a suggestion that Microsoft might not be going for a whole new version of Windows for next year after all. That said, we’re not convinced of that by any means, as there have been quite strong signs that a next-gen Windows should be inbound in 2024. That includes most recently Taiwan’s The Commercial Times reporting on a new generation of Windows popping up in June of next year, and a bit further back, we witnessed an Intel exec talking about next-gen Windows for 2024. Note carefully, though, that no one actually mentions Windows 12 as the name - instead, less specific terms like 'next-gen Windows' are employed. It’s likely even Microsoft itself hasn’t decided on the final name yet, and so calling the next version Windows 11 24H2 could be a placeholder for next-gen Windows – which might end up being named Windows 12 – as much as it is a possible sign that Windows 11 will stick around for another year and another annual update. We’ve previously bet on a future version of Windows being renamed due to its strong focus on AI (Windows Copilot, perhaps, even though Microsoft already used that name, or Windows AI even?). Whenever AI hits big-time for the OS, Microsoft will rename it accordingly to reflect that, we reckon – although in fairness, from the speed of Copilot development so far, that probably won’t be next year.

Lenovo has released the SL7000 50E, a PCIe 5.0 SSD that can compete with the best SSDs. Rated for speeds up to 12.4 GB/s, the SL7000 50Ecan hang with the fastest PCIe 5.0 drives. The SL7000 50E sticks to the conventional M.2 2280 form factor. It only comes in a bare drive presentation with a plain sticker, lacking the bulky heatsinks we've grown accustomed to on PCIe 5.0 SSDs. But that doesn't mean you should run the SL7000 50E without a heatsink. Lenovo probably didn't include a heatsink on the SL7000 50E to keep the cost of the drive as low as possible, but it shouldn't be too much of an issue since modern motherboards generally have M.2 slots with included heatsinks. The Phison PS5026-E26 is at the heart of the SL7000 50E, like many PCIe 5.0 drives before it. The E26 isn't the only PCIe 5.0 controller out there, but it continues to be the most po[CENSORED]r choice among SSD manufacturers. On the NAND side, the SL7000 50E utilizes 232-layer TLC 3D chips from an unspecified vendor. However, given the PCIe 5.0 SSD's advertised speeds, we suspect the NAND hails from Micron, specifically, the 2,400 MT/s variant. The SL7000 50E delivers sequential read and write speeds up to 12.4 GB/s. Lenovo's drive is right up there with the Crucial T700, Galax HOF Extreme 50S, and Teamgroup Cardea Z540. The company didn't reveal the drive's random performance for the SL7000 50E. The E26-powered SSD is available in four capacities: 512GB, 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB. Most companies don't bother releasing PCIe 5.0 SSDs below 1TB. Lenovo, however, offers the SL7000 50E with a 512GB capacity. The 1TB model sells for $210, while the 2TB version costs $365 on JD.com. The pricing is a bit steep. For example, the Crucial T700 1TB and 2TB retail for $179.99 and $287.52, respectively. The other capacities of the SL7000 50E aren't currently available, so their pricing is unknown. Lenovo backs the SL7000 50E with a limited three-year warranty. It's solid but not great, since many brands offer five-year warranties on PCIe 5.0 drives.

Apple is working on adding support for 6G connectivity to the company's future devices, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. The Cupertino company has reportedly faced challenges over the past few years as it attempts to develop its own 5G modem and reduce its reliance on chipmakers like Qualcomm. The iPhone maker is focusing on developing 6G technology and is also hiring employees to work on the next-generation cellular network standard, he states in the latest edition of his weekly Power On newsletter. Gurman spotted a job listing posted to the company's website last month for a modem systems software architect to join the company's Wireless Technologies and Ecosystems (WTE) team. Apple's prospective cellular platform architects will be tasked with coordinating the development of 6G reference architecture alongside prototype implementations. From the job listing's description, it appears that Apple wants to assess the implementation of 6G technology in future devices and the engineers hired for the role will have to collaborate with the company's research and development teams and external partners. Candidates must have at least 10 years of work experience and a master's or PhD degree in electrical engineering, according to the company. It is worth noting that the 5G standard was only introduced in July 2017, while carriers began to roll out networks with the current-generation network standard in 2019. While the new standard — 6G — is expected to be finalised over the next couple of years, customers shouldn't expect to see 6G capable devices until the end of the decade. Last month, it was reported that Apple would miss its target to develop a 5G modem for its smartphones by 2025. The smartphone maker is expected to launch its own modem on a future iPhone model by 2026, as per the report. Apple and Qualcomm renewed a contract that allowed the former to access the chipmaker's modem technology until 2026. Apple's purported 5G modem might not offer better performance than the other smartphones and the firm's own handsets equipped with Qualcomm's chips, according to the report that describes Apple's challenges with implementing advanced millimetre-wave (mmWave) technology. The company also reportedly faces the additional challenge of ensuring that its chip technology doesn't infringe on Qualcomm's patents.

Christmas might just have come early for laptop makers, as a new leak suggests that Windows 12 could arrive as soon as June 2024. The news, which Tom’s Hardware originally reported on and KitGuru later added to, emerged in Taiwan’s The Commercial Times, will be good news for the PC and laptop market, which has seen a decline since the Covid-19 pandemic. When people started working from home, many bought new PCs or laptops, along with webcams and other accessories, but this boom was not to last. With so many people using new devices, it’s understandable that they wouldn’t be in any rush to go out and buy a new one. This has resulted in a downturn in PC and laptop sales – but the launch of a new operating system could help reinvigorate those sales. According to the report, the June 2024 date for Windows 12 was mooted at the recent Taiwan Medical Technology Exhibition in Taipei, where Quanta Computer Chairman Barry Lam is reported to have said “next summer, when Microsoft launches a new generation of Windows operating systems, AI PCs will also be launched one after another.” While it’s not entirely clear from the report where the June 2024 date came from, and Microsoft has not officially revealed its Windows 12 plans, there will be many in the PC industry who hope this is Microsoft's plan. We've also heard other rumors about a 2024 launch date in the past. A new, powerful, operating system with innovative features could – if done right – encourage people to upgrade to new hardware. Whether or not Microsoft can do it right, however, is another issue. Windows 11 woes Windows 11 hasn’t exactly set the world alight. It’s a solid operating system, but there hasn’t been a killer app or feature that has made Windows 10 users want to switch. Microsoft’s attempts to get people to upgrade to new laptops or PCs for Windows 11, due to its controversial insistence on TPM 2.0 compatibility, annoyed more people than it converted as well. So, if Windows 12 is to be the saviour of Microsoft and the wider industry, it’ll need to be a big upgrade from Windows 11, and one that makes full use of cutting-edge hardware. No pressure, then. AI to the rescue? Microsoft hasn’t been shy about its ambitions for artificial intelligence (AI), and while it’s been pushing AI feature in Windows 11 (and even Windows 10), it’s looking likely that Windows 12 will have even more AI integration – and it’s here that the upcoming operating system could differentiate itself from its predecessors. Acer CEO Jason Chen, who was also at the event, talked about how AI PCs will “continuously accelerate” the industry. These ‘AI’ PCs will likely come with Windows 12 preinstalled (as Lam suggested), and will rely on advanced hardware that’s been specially made for artificial intelligence. Microsoft’s AI additions to Windows 11, in the form of its Copilot assistant, have been warmly received by users, but they still feel a bit like a gimmick. Nothing, so far, fundamentally changes the way we use Windows 11 or our PCs, as Microsoft has promised. However, the thought of Windows 12 being built from the ground up to make use of AI, and debuting on laptops and PC with AI-supporting hardware, is incredibly exciting. If June 2024 does indeed usher in a new era of the best laptops and PCs, there certainly will be a lot of people who’ll be tempted to upgrade – including me.

A team of researchers from the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT), Eindhoven University of Technology, and the University of L’Aquila have achieved a groundbreaking transmission that demonstrates the possibility of transmitting up to 22.9 petabits per second (Pb/s) through a single optic cable composed of multiple fibers. This is a significant increase in transmission capacity, as the previous world record was 10.66 Pb/s. The old record was broken last June, with 1.8 Pb/s by researchers from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. Then it was broken multiple times in the following months. The researchers achieved this breakthrough by combining the latest research technologies with Space Division Multiplexing (SDM) and Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). SDM uses multiple multicore fibers and various transmission technologies to work with over 100 spatial channels, which are then combined with multi-bandwidth WDM. The researchers merged this 38-core, three-mode cable through a multi-band compatible MIMO receiver. Each core is capable of transmitting data between 0.3 to 0.7 Pb/s. With optimized coding, achieving speeds of up to 24.7 PB/s may be possible. This is the first time that different multiplexing techniques have been combined, resulting in a major advancement in data transmission technology. The research findings were submitted and accepted at Glasgow's 49th European Conference on Optical Communications. Although the technology is ready to be integrated into the existing global optical connection infrastructure, it will require significant upgrades to the current telecommunication centers that use ultra-large capacity optical fibers. To put it in plain words, this new infrastructure could handle up to three times the amount of data traffic through these cables once deployed, which is 1,000 times more than the currently deployed optic cables. It's also a question of when the new cables and infrastructure might be deployed, as many such records were broken this year, and also which one of these approaches will be deemed most feasible. Research breakthroughs are crucial to keep up with the high rate of internet consumption worldwide. Establishing records like this with the merit of multiple institutions and researchers, along with the cooperation of several telecommunications players, is likely to encourage investment and quick deployment within the existing ecosystem.

iPhone 16 — expected to debut in the second half of 2024 as the successor to the iPhone 15 series of smartphones — could be equipped with Apple's new Action Button. While the company equipped the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max with the new button designed to replace mute switch, a new report states that the company is planning on equipping all four models in the lineup with the customisable button, which is expected to arrive in a revamped form. MacRumors reports that Apple will include the Action Button on all iPhone 16 models that are likely to arrive next year. Unlike the iPhone 15 lineup, the non-Pro iPhone 16 models are also expected to feature the new Action Button. It is also suggested that the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus might be the last iPhone models to debut with the mute switch — even the iPhone SE 4 is tipped to debut in 2025 with the new button. Meanwhile, the report states that the Action Button on the iPhone 16 series will be revamped next year. Instead of using the regular mechanical button like the volume and power keys, the new Action Button will offer capacitive-style button functionality like the iPhone SE (2022) home button. It is unclear whether all models in the series will be equipped with the redesigned button — codenamed Atlas. When Apple unveiled the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max this year, the firm touted the new functionality offered by the Action Button that expands the use of the button that was used to switch between vibrate and ring modes on the iPhone. With the action button, you can toggle ringer modes or accessibility features, launch the camera app or magnifier app, start or stop a voice memo or the flashlight, and enable and disable focus modes on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. The switch to a capacitive button means that it might be able to detect different pressure levels. However, enthusiasts will have to wait for several months before Apple unveils the purported iPhone 16 series of smartphones in 2024.

Windows 11 laptops could soon benefit from improved battery life thanks to a change in the works currently in testing. The new feature called ‘Energy Saver’ is in the freshly released preview build 26002 of Windows 11 in the Canary channel (the earliest testing avenue). Microsoft describes it as an extension of battery saver, and it reins in system performance to give you more battery life. The blurb for the feature notes it will limit some background activities, so apps and the system may run a bit slower, or be a touch less responsive when you return to them, but your laptop will last longer. Energy Saver can be set to kick in when your battery percentage drops to a certain level, or you can manually select it. In the latter case, the option is present in the quick settings accessed via the system tray (far right on the taskbar). Speaking of the quick settings panel, in build 26002 Microsoft has applied some other work here, including experimenting with a tweak that makes it pop up faster and act more responsively, which will be a useful addition to the mix. Furthermore, dealing with VPNs has been improved in quick settings, with the introduction of the ability to turn your VPN on or off with just a single click. For all the gory details of the changes made in build 26002, check out Microsoft’s blog post (spoiler alert – they’re not all that gory). Analysis: Energy Saver – and Money Saver, too What we don’t know yet is how much effect this new Energy Saver will have in extending battery life, but Microsoft is certainly billing it as a more heavy-duty method of eking out greater longevity than battery saver, so that’s promising. What’s also interesting with this feature is that while it’s designed for laptops, Microsoft is also allowing it to be used for desktop PCs (or notebooks plugged into the mains and not running on battery, for that matter). In short, this allows you to save a bit of money when running your desktop PC all day – maybe you work from home and do so, like us – if you’re happy with somewhat constrained performance levels, of course. With power bills being what they are, though, and the cost-of-living crisis still very much around, it’s a useful option to have. Not to mention an environmentally-friendly choice, to boot.

Orange Pi, po[CENSORED]rly known for its Raspberry Pi competing products, has expanded its lineup with a new SBC (single-board computer). The latest Orange Pi AIpro is unlike any offering the brand has produced, as it features an Ascend chip from Huawei instead of the typical processors from Rockchip, Allwinner, or Arm. The Orange Pi AIpro is a SBC that measures 107 x 68mm (4.21 x 2.68 inches), so it’s more or less in the range of the Orange Pi 5. The Orange Pi AIpro is significantly larger than the Raspberry Pi 5, which has an 85 x 56mm (3.45 x 2.2 inches) footprint. An unspecified Huawei Ascend 64-bit chip with a quad-core design and integrated AI processor powers the Orange Pi AIpro. The vendor claims that the chip delivers an AI performance of 8/20 TOPS. The SBC is available with an 8GB or 16GB LPDDR4X-3200 configuration. The Orange Pi AIpro has an M.2 2280 slot, which the manufacturer placed at the SBC’s rear. Although Orange Pi doesn’t specify the interface’s speed, it supports NVMe and SATA drives—an additional eMMC slot, which complies with the eMMC5.1 HS400 specification, provides the means to add another 32GB to 256GB of storage. There’s also a TF slot if you have a bunch of unused TF cards. The Orange Pi AIpro is infused with a plethora of connectivity options. The SBC provides Wi-Fi 5 with Bluetooth 4.2 for wireless connections and a standard Gigabit Ethernet port for wired connections. Meanwhile, display outputs include two HDMI 2.0 ports capable of 4K at 60 FPS and one 2-lane MIPI DSI connection. Orange Pi also equipped the SBC with two 2-lane MIPI interface camera inputs compatible with the Raspberry Pi Camera Module. A 3.5mm audio jack lets users connect their headphones to the Orange Pi AIpro. It also has an integrated analog silicon microphone. A few buttons on the Orange Pi AIpro provide quick access to essential functions like powering off, resetting the SBC or toggling the startup mode. A 12V fan header allows you to connect a single fan to the Orange Pi AIpro. For connecting peripherals, the Orange Pi AIpro offers two USB 3.0 Type-A ports and one USB 3.0 Type-C port. There's another USB Type-C port with a 20V power delivery, but that's for connecting the power adapter. A conventional 40-pin GPIO header supports interfaces, including GPIO, UART, I2C, SPI, I2S, and PWM. As for operating system support, the Orange Pi AIpro embraces Ubuntu and openEuler. The Orange Pi AIpro is up for pre-order at JD.com. The 8GB model costs $125.71, whereas the 16GB model sells for $162.48. Customers with pre-orders can register for anystery developer gift box, which is limited to 1,000 units. Orange Pi will ship out orders on January 5.

Redmi 13C 5G variant is set to launch in India soon as the successor to the Redmi 12C that was launched a year ago. Industry sources have confirmed to Gadgets 360 that the Chinese smartphone maker is preparing to launch a 5G variant of the Redmi 13C in India, while a 4G model will also make its way to the country. The Redmi 13C was launched in Nigeria earlier this month, and the company has confirmed that it will debut in India on December 6. The Redmi 13C that was unveiled by the company in Nigeria is equipped with a MediaTek Helio G85 chip and offers support for 4G connectivity. Meanwhile, the company is preparing to launch a 5G variant of the Redmi 13C in India, which will also be a new model entirely and will be priced under Rs. 15,000. However, there's no word on the processor that will power this handset. It will be paired with up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. Redmi 13C specifications (expected) The 4G variant of the Redmi 13C that was launched in other markets is powered by an octa-core 12nm MediaTek Helio G85 chip. It is available in 4GB + 128GB, 6GB+128GB, and 8GB+256GB RAM and storage configurations. It runs on Android 13-based MIUI 14 out-of-the-box.
