In simple terms, at a time when most brands are chasing the “one big sensor with less powerful sensors around it” formula, the Mi 11 Ultra is perhaps the first non-Cupertino phone in recent times that lets you switch between three powerful sensors, without any major compromise in image quality or resolution. Xiaomi has insisted on calling all three cameras “primary,” and we can see why. You literally can shoot from any of them and be assured of using very good hardware in phone camera terms....

Both of them also have a layer of Corning’s Gorilla Glass. Specifications The most critical hardware difference between the Mi A2 and Mi A2 Lite is in their performance hardware.

As a matter of fact, Pebble made available this feature to beta testers back in December but now it is available for everyone. Of course, the smartwatch industry is in its early stages, as there have been just 720,000 Android Wear device shipped last year. But we all know that the Apple Watch is coming, so that’s plenty of a reason for Pebble to strengthen their product. And with this update, Pebble already has an advantage over Android Wear, as it supports a wider selection of Android devices – Android 4....

Rahul Sharma points to a table that is covered with phones. As usual. A geek’s dream, maybe, but perhaps not quite the Micromax CEO’s cup of tea for a chat. When we insist it is perfectly all right (hey, we love talking with phones all round), he settles down, tall, slim frame almost blending into a chair. “I liked your article,” he says to Akriti, referring to a piece she had written on TechPP on Micromax’s silence in recent times....
