Now, a few more leaked screenshots for the Mi Mix 4 have appeared online, which shows the same feature and by the looks of it, it seems to be really impressive. The details leaked on the web states that the phone will be using a 1080p or a full HD resolution screen. Earlier, it was expected that the company could be adding a new 2K resolution screen on the same. 

However, it is now almost confirmed through the leaks that the 2K resolution screen will not be a part of this smartphone. However, the phone will come with a new kind of technology that will improve the display quality to provide a much better resolution on output than a full HD screen. The phone is also expected to come with MIUI 13 out of the box which has still not been released by Xiaomi. The MIUI 13 will specifically bring a unique and much better experience on the MI Mix 4 as per the company. 

The phone will also support wireless and wired charging and will have around 80W of fast charging support wirelessly and 120W with wired charging. The company will also bring their new generation of under-screen cameras on this phone which will provide the users with superior image quality. Along with Mi Mix 4, the company is expected to launch a total of three new smartphones with under-screen camera technology.

Youtube has finally decided to add the PiP support for the iOS devices, something that was already present for Android smartphones. The PiP feature allows the users on Youtube to watch the video in the small pop-up, even after the Youtube app has been closed. The feature will be available for both premium and free users on Youtube. The company has also confirmed that the update will first be rolled out to all the premium users and once it is completed, it will be rolled out for all the iOS users in the US. 

However, Youtube has not yet confirmed when the feature will be rolled out for the global audience. The PiP feature was already available on the iPad OS where the users could access it through Youtube working on the Safari browser. For now, it is clear that the new feature will be available on the Youtube app for both free and premium users in the US, however, it is not certain that the same will continue for users on a global scale. 

It can be a case that the premium users globally receive the feature while the free users are only able to access the features through Youtube on a web browser. Although there are a lot of workarounds to disable and enable the PiP feature on devices, the addition of the features on the iOS devices is surely going to be useful for the users. It is also expected that the feature will be updated for global users by the end of the year.

The Galaxy Tab S7 FE has been launched at a price tag of Rs 46,999 and Rs 50,999 for the 4GB/64GB model and 6GB/128GB model.

Both the tablets can be purchased from Samsung official physical stores and Samsung.com. It will also be soon made available on other e-commerce websites. Where the Tab S7 FE has a 12.4-inch WQXGA screen, it has an 8MP shooter in the rear and 5MP in the front. 

It has all the connectivity features one can expect from a modern tablet and comes with USB Type-C connectivity. It also has a 10,090mAh battery with 45W fast charging support. The Galaxy Tab A7 Lite comes with an 8.7-inch WXGA screen and a 5,100mAh battery with 15W fast charging. It also comes with an LTE version and weighs only 371 grams. Both the tablets seem to be a great offering in the price range and the only thing that could concern the sales of Galaxy Tab S7 FE is the exclusion of 5G at this price tag.

PUBG used to rule the mobile gaming industry in Indian and ever since the ban on the game last year, users have been eagerly waiting for its return. After the news came in about the pre-registration for the completely new Indian version of the game, the mobile gaming industry has seen huge positive feedback and impact on the industry. In fact, PUBG was released as Battlegrounds mobile India and also provided some users the opportunity to get their hands on the pre-release edition. 

Since there were limited slots, only a few players have been able to get their hands on the new game and from what we have heard from them, the new version of the game does stand up to the level of excitement PUBG created. The game has only been made available for Android smartphones for now with the iOS version also coming very soon. The game comes with a few additional changes which are a change of blood color to green, a new account system, and a warning system that would warn users to spend a certain time on the game. 

The ban on PUBG was due to the Chinese publisher Tencent, as during the time all Chinese apps were banned in India. The game has now been made from scratch for the Indian audience and was solely developed by Krafton. However, the company has not tried to change the game a lot and you will still find a lot of similar features and gameplay mechanics. One major change that the users will notice is the primary focus on the age of the player and if they are very young to play this game and the amount of time one spends on playing it.

It will also have the 65W fast charging technology from Realme and will support 5G connectivity.

The leaked details do confirm that the smartphone could be coming with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset, the new 108 MP primary sensor, and the 120Hz refresh rate on the display. Xiaomi has also been working on new camera technology which can be added to the foldable smartphone, leading to much better image quality.
