After confirming the release date of POCO X3, the company is all set to launch the POCO M2 at the same date of launch of the POCO X3. According to reports, POCO M2 is going to be a pocket-friendly budget smartphone from POCO. So we all are going to witness a double phone release from POCO in India on September 8. C Manmohan, GM at POCO India, also confirmed the development of this new model. POCO M2 will be a slightly downgraded version of the POCO M2 Pro to make it a budget phone.
POCO has not shared any pricing information about this phone. But it is expected that this phone could be priced nearer to Rs. 10,000 mark. As this phone will be added to the entry-level segment of POCO, a lower price range is expected for it. We have to wait for the other specifications of that phone to get released.
It's time to change all your WTF moments to #PowerFTW moments.
Get ready, the #POCOM2 is arriving on 08th September at 12 noon on @Flipkart.
From the launch poster of that phone, it is expected that the POCO M2 will feature a waterdrop notch display. It will be a value for money phone that will solve all your issues concerning low RAM, poor cameras, and lousy battery life.
POCO has not shared any specifications about the M2. After the announcement of the open sale availability, POCO has announced the release date for POCO M2. Some are expecting that this phone will be a rebranded version of an existing Redmi smartphone, as POCO is a sub-brand of Xiaomi. Tipsters have been tracking an entry-level smartphone with model number M2004J191, which eventually turned out to be the Redmi 9 Prime that launched in India last month. The POCO M2 is expected to be a modified variant of this same handset. To get the answers to each and every confusion, we have to wait till September 8.
Xiaomi is cooing a new truly wireless earphones for its fans. This is confirmed as the Bluetooth SIG database leaked the certification a couple of days back on their official site. The certificate reveals that the product name will be Mi True Wireless Earphones 2 Pro. As the product gets the Bluetooth certifications, we can expect it will come to the market very soon.
Along with this, another new pair of Mi buds will be launch and that will have active noise cancellation. Both the products are different, it’s sure, that because there are two individual certifications.
It seems the company is going to provide two options – ANC and Pro to its customers.
It comes to know that both the devices are coming with the latest Bluetooth 5.0 and wireless charging facility. The Earphones 2 Pro gets a new design with a slanting, shiny outer surface. In the end, I guess we need not to wait long for the official announcement.
Apart from the audio devices, two new smart TVs of Xiaomi are also revealed during C3 certification recently. Both models are equipped with LG’s 82-inch display panels, either OLED or LED. The only spotted difference is display resolution. One model has 4K picture quality, whereas the other one is spotted with 8K.
Having said goodbye to Intel already, Apple isn’t stopping here, they are planning to ditch AMD for their graphics as well. Yes, Apple will be making its own discrete GPUs for its own products and it will be in action in the second half of 2021.
There’s no point of hiding that Apple will launch 5nm based Apple A14 chips this year and will set some new record as well. Their A14 Bionic chip will power their new iPhones while the A14X Bionic chip will power the latest iPads and MacBooks.
These SoCs shall give far better performance than Intel ones they used as they already did beat them with the last-gen A13 Bionic chip. So, Apple might have thought when they have excelled in CPUs why shouldn’t they go for GPUs? obviously, they have a lot of engineers and R&D to achieve this and in 2021 we might see Apple’s own GPUs as well.
So, the Cupertino giant believes that it can improve their integrated GPU and ultimately transform into discrete GPUs that can actually replace AMD’s in future iMacs or MacBook Pros and what not. Brought to our attention by Notebookcheck, as per the Chinese publication Commercial Times, these in-house Apple GPUs will be codenamed as Lifuka and will be developed on TSMC’s latest 5 nm nodes.
So, these Apple’s discrete GPUs will be much more efficient and deliver more performance consuming less heat, however, making a desktop-level GPU will not be an easy task. Although, we know how efficient Apple is to get the best out of anything, can even help reduce their Mac costs significantly.

As per the plan, if all goes fine, Apple will release these new GPUs, debuting on the upcoming iMac models which will make their way in the second half of 2021. Apple will be replacing its lower-end GPUs (from AMD) with these new GPUs, however, both the companies will still be working together for the powerful Mac Pro workstations.
So, these Apple GPUs will be using Tile-Based Deferred Rendering tech that they had licensed from Imagination Technology, who produces the PowerVR GPUs. These GPUs will be paired with Apple’s Tonga processors, as in, the new ARM-powered chips arriving soon this year.
What do you think about these new Apple GPUs? Tell us in the comments down below…
The day which we have been waiting for has finally arrived, NVIDIA has launched its new graphics cards based out of Ampere architecture, and its a generational leap in terms of performance. These new RTX 3000 GPUs deliver superior gaming performance even when RTX is turned on when compared to the last-gen.
NVIDIA’s new Ray Tracing cores along with new Tensor cores increases the performance during games while maintaining efficiency as built on a refined 8nm process nodes by Samsung. As Jensen Huang stated, NVIDIA has completely engineered their GPUs to give drastic improvements over the last-gen.
To get almost 1.9x PERF/W improvement is note a joke and NVIDIA has partnered with Micron as well to use their faster GDDR6X memory with 19Gbps speed. Not only the new RTX 3080 is more powerful than the last-gen RTX 2080Ti but also the mid-range RTX 3070 will also be powerful over the last flagship GPU.
NVIDIA has done a lot of optimizations at the hardware level to achieve this kind of performance gains almost two times over last-gen, maintaining the efficiency, and improving the ray tracing qualities. With PCIe gen 4 and RTX IO, NVIDIA is trying to reduce game loading times and latencies, similar to what we will experience on the upcoming consoles.
RTX 3080
This will be the new flagship GPU at the consumer standpoint as RTX 3090 will not be an option for the masses and Huang knew that, so started the presentation with the RTX 3080. Pricing it at $699 makes it’s even more lucrative as it promises huge performance gains over the RTX 20 series flagships that cost incredibly more even though coming at high prices.
The new RTX 3080 has a complete design overhaul, now with 30 Shader-TFLOPS, 58 RT-FLOPS, and 238 Tensor-TFLOPS, which makes this even more powerful on the hardware front. Also coupled with high-speed GDDR6X memory running at 19Gbps, makes this an ideal 4K gaming GPU and is 2x faster than the original RTX 2080.
NVIDIA’s new optimizations and DLSS 2.0 promises 4K 60 FPS gaming without any frame drops whatsoever which will make this even more popular among gamers who now have a lot of RTX enabled games in the market. As NVIDIA states: the RTX 3080 is the perfect mix of fast performance and cutting-edge capabilities, leading Huang to declare it NVIDIA’s “new flagship GPU.”
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 will be available from September 17th onwards at $699, we will see a lot of third party cards as well.
RTX 3070
The new mid-range RTX GPU that has no compromise when it comes to gaming and even is superior in terms of performance from the last flagship RTX 2080 Ti that used to cost $1,200. Yes, the new RTX 3070 that will cost $499 will be delivering better performance at half prices, this thinking only can actually bewilder you.
The architectural improvements and now with 20 Shader-TFLOPS, 40 RT-FLOPS, and 163 Tensor-TFLOPS, so you can expect amazing 1440p gaming performance even is RTX is turned on. As NVIDIA states the RTX 3070 hits the sweet spot of performance for games running with eye candy turned up. This new GPU will turn up a lot of new gamers, however, might disappoint you if you have bought a previous RTX 2080 GPU at a higher price recently.🤣
The new cooling design promises better thermal airflow from both ends and the unique design makes this even better and looks fancy as well. Overall, all of the three GPUs, including the monstrous RTX 3090 GPU has made an immediate impact among enthusiasts and its good to see NVIDIA has worked on its flaws and made it’s new RTX 3000 GPUs much much better than before.
Truly, with Ampere, NVIDIA has promised a new direction to the ray-tracing gaming, and these GPUs, especially the RTX 3080 and RTX 3070 should be well received by the gaming community. Also, NVIDIA will launch the RTX 3060 in the coming days to complete its RTX 3000 lineup in style, giving gamers a lot of options to choose from with RTX on!!!
A few days back, on 27th August the CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk joined the $100 billion+ family with the other three – Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and social media giant Facebook’s owner Mark Zuckerberg. His net worth was $101 billion then. A $5.46 billion boosted up his rank to the 4th place in the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
The recent update on the list says, Musk is no longer in the 4th place, neither Zuckerberg is in the 3rd position. As per the current net worth, they swapped their positions. Currently, the Tesla CEO owns $115 billion in total with the latest hike of $11.7 billion. At the same time, Mark has a total of $111 billion after a $169 million deductions.
by – Bloomberg Billionaires Index
By comparison with our last update, Musk gains nearly $14 billion in 4 to 5 days, whereas Mark Zuckerberg comes down to $111 billion from $115 billion in the same time span.
The other two ranker Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates are still there in the top two positions respectively. As per the chart, Bezos gains $2.68 billion recently, and Bill Gates lose $521 million. If you compare the valuation of their current assets with our last update‘s data, you will notice the Amazon leader has the same amount i.e. $202 billion and Bill Gates gains $1 billion.
Needless to say, Jeff Bezos is the only person having above $200 million net worth.

Xiaomi is gearing up to launch another Mi 10 series smartphone while there’s already a bunch of Mi 10’s are out there but according to the company, this one is going to be different and mostly won’t be a rebadged Chinese variant as it is expected to be powered by an unannounced Snapdragon 7-series chipset with support for 5G.
Every Xiaomi smartphone is pretty much the same and Xiaomi is well known for selling the old phones with new names in different parts of the globe but it seems highly unlikely this time since it is coming with a new chipset which is yet not announced so it might be a case where some of the hardware can be borrowed from the older Mi 10’s to achieve this phone since it is going to be available at quite an affordable price range of €200 – €299 so it won’t be feasible for the brand to set up a whole R&D on this one.
We're going to launch a new 5G smartphone this September and it will start from €2XX!
As a new member of our #Mi10 Series, it will be the first to feature an upcoming brand-new @Qualcomm Snapdragon 7-Series 5G Mobile Platform. Amazing value for money to allow #5GForEveryone! pic.twitter.com/yR3r0cEOmZ
For the naming prospect, we think it might be the upcoming Mi 10T Lite since many publications are expecting Xiaomi to launch a new ‘T’ lineup of the Mi 10 series which will be consisting of three phones Mi 10, Mi 10 Pro, and Mi 10 Lite and considering the price point it’s mostly going to be the Lite variant if it belongs to the ‘T’ family.
Whatever it is whether it belongs to the Mi 10T family or not or it’s from some other lineup only it doesn’t matter a lot because a 5G smartphone powered by a Snapdragon 7-series smartphone for a price of less than €300 is surely going to kill it in the European market at least because we don’t know anything about the launch of this phone in other regions so just fingers crossed that it comes to my country India as soon as possible because I am just sick of my Nokia 3310.
Spanish coach Manuel ‘Manolo’ Marquez Roca has been appointed as the head coach of Hyderabad FC. The club has announced this on Monday.
Hyderabad FC was searching for someone as their head coach who is as experienced as their former head coach, Albert Roca. Albert Roca left the job as he was called by LaLiga side FC Barcelona to become their new fitness coach.
Marquez is a highly experienced manager. He has the experience of La Liga and the Croatian top-flight. He has signed a one-year deal with Hyderabad FC.
Marquez has worked closely with former FC Barcelona and Real Betis manager Quique Setien and current CD Leganes manager Javier Aguirre. He also has coaching experience in several teams. He has worked in PB Anguera, AE Prat, CE Europa, CF Badalona, RCD Espanyol B, UE Sant Andreu, and UD Las Palmas B. He became the manager of La Liga side UD Las Palmas in 2017. After that, he took the charge of Croatian top-flight side NK Istra 1961 in 2018.
After signing the contract Marquez told, “It’s a big challenge for me to join Hyderabad FC as we are set to begin our season soon. The club has already been preparing and working on a lot of things over the last few months so that makes it a comparatively smoother process for me to settle in.”
“Given that Hyderabad FC intends to follow the same philosophy which I’ve worked with over so many years, I believe there are common goals already present. Now it’s just about hitting the ground running and imparting those ideologies to the players” he added.
Hyderabad FC co-owner Varun Tripuraneni was delighted to have him as the head coach of the team. He told, “We’ve worked towards a unified goal over the last seven-eight months while building our team. It has been one of our top priorities to continue the good work that everyone has put in and we strongly believe that Manuel Márquez is the perfect choice to do that. He has the credentials, and more importantly the experience to fit into our club. He has consistently proven himself at various levels and we expect a seamless transition.”.
It was a tough period for Hyderabad FC in the last season. They finished last in the league. Recently they tied up a contract with German giant Borussia Dortmund and want to claim the trophy next season.
This season’s ISL is going to start from 12th September. The new coach will have a very short period of time to prepare. Now everyone wants how HFC responds under their new coach.
The wait is over as today, Jensen Huang has announced the mammoth RTX 3090 GPU globally, wearing his leather jacket, at a whopping price of $1499. Ok, the price is huge, however, this is the only graphics card that can run games at 60 fps in 8K resolution. Yes, its 8K that too with DLSS 2.0 on, you can get unbelievable things with these new Ampere GPUs.
Obviously, the NVIDIA Ampere launch is “a giant step into the future” according to Huang, who was hosting the Livestream from the kitchen of his Silicon Valley home. The GPU looks exactly the same as pictured in a wide range of leaks for the past couple of weeks. NVIDIA’s Turing architecture combined programmable shaders, RT Cores to accelerate ray-triangle and ray-bounding-box intersections, and the Tensor Core AI processing pipeline.
The RTX 20 series were not that convincing especially when DLSS was turned on, however, with Ampere and DLSS 2.0, things have changed drastically. NVIDIA has packed more Shader-TFLOPs, RT-FLOPS, and Tensor-TFLOPS to help fix the issue with ray tracing and actually reduce the load during gameplay using AI and the hardware. So, Ampere is a huge improvement over the last-gen when it comes to performance.
The new RTX 3090 features 36 Shader-TFLOPs, 69 RT-FLOPS, and 285 Tensor-TFLOPS, making this to be one of the most powerful commercial GPU ever. As per leaks, the GPU does also feature a whopping 24GB GDDR6X faster memory by Micron, making the card a very expensive one, but worth it.
This new beast runs at 19.5Gbps can tackle the most challenging AI algorithms and feed massive data-hungry workloads for true 8K gaming. It even comes with silencer — a three-slot, dual-axial, flow-through design — up to 10x quieter and keeps the GPU up to 30 degrees C cooler than the TITAN RTX.
“The 3090 is so big that for the very first time, we can play games at 60 frames per second in 8K,” Huang said. “This is insane.”
With the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090, you can game at 8K resolution with RTX on with DLSS 8K, also it supports 8K HDR ShadowPlay, so you can enjoy games at high details on your 8K TV comfortably with the new flagship GPU. You can get one for yourself from September 24 onwards at $1499.
