POCO X6 Neo launched in India
Specifications:
DITTO Copy of Redmi Note 13 5G launched previously in January 2024 with exact same specifications
Even the SoC is rebranded
Powered by MediaTek Dimensity 6080 which is basically a Rebranded Dimensity 810 chip (launched in 2021)
It features a Virtual AI Proximity Sensor & 108MP main sensor with NO OIS with a 2MP useless secondary sensor
It got MONO Speakers with Dolby Atmos π
Pricing:
8GB + 128GB = Rs. 16,000 (~195$)
12GB + 256GB = Rs. 18,000 (~215$)
So Xiaomi will first launch a smartphone. Xiaomi knows that their smartphone value will decrease after 2-3 months.
Thus, they will again launch the SAME smartphone through their other sub-brand at a decreased price
This will basically make people think that it is some new phone but in reality, Xiaomi just changed the back panel, the company name and called it a day
The Three R's for Xiaomi basically means β Recycle, Repackage, Repeat
XIAOMI= The KING of GARBAGE in the Smartphone Industry

The Latest Poco X6 Neo features Mono Speaker WITH Dolby Atmos
They basically meant to say that the device supports Dolby Atmos for headphones/Bluetooth speaker
But Xiaomi is FALSELY advertisement it being Mono Speaker with Dolby Atmos support
Dolby Atmos experience relies on multiple speakers and precise audio positioning which is NOT achievable on a device with a single mono speaker and works with stereo speakers only

UPDATE: Google told me that the IETF's ongoing work on the Device Unwanted Location Tracker (DULT) specification does NOT impact their timeline for launching the Find My Device network.
Plus, the version of the spec that Apple will be implementing in iOS is already available, so really the only thing holding back Google's Find My Device network now is Apple.
More details here.

The only thing holding back Google's Find My Device network now is Apple
Google's Find My Device network will turn Android devices into a massive location tracking network. But it's being held back by Apple.

Google is preparing to launch Offline Retail Stores in India
Alphabet is planning on introducing a Google-branded brick-and-mortar store in India to sell a gamut of Googleβs products and showcase it as an experience center
In brick-and-mortar stores, consumers can speak with employees and ask questions about the products or services.
Brick-and-mortar stores can offer experience shopping whereby consumers can test a product
"A team from Google from the US was here in India last week. They comprised of four-five members senior management team from the US,"
βThey had visited New Delhi and Mumbai as part of their India study for the store opening and visited some malls in both the cities"
Apple introduced its own Apple-branded and operated stores last year in Mumbai and New Delhi.
Now, Google is also looking at New Delhi and Mumbai as possible locations for its first store in India.

Google I/O 2024 holding on May 14
The event was teased with a puzzle, and later announced to the public after getting solved, but no details were provided. Here's some rough estimation according to past events, though everyone should take this information with a grain of salt.
It's likely that we would get the new Pixel 8a, alongside some previews of the new features in Android 15 that are yet to be added. There might also be some new updates for the existing Google products that we all know well.

Xiaomi smartphones offer the Worst Charging Solution
You may have seen Xiaomi smartphones failing to boot/charge after battery goes to 0%
Even the flagship Mi 13 Ultra with its 90W charger or mid-rangers like the Poco F5 does NOT charge at all but charges through PC/Laptop or using a 5W charger
Internally this problem is known as "PD Handshake not completing" (Although it did NOT even go to the handshake point) & occurs only when using a Xiaomi stock charger (30W+) & cable
Xiaomi cables are NOT PD certified but instead are PD compliant and they even implement DRM on their cable π which is being managed via a binary called "batterysecret"
Here's what basically happens:
The phone tries to boot as a "charger" boot target, but since the voltage is too low, it's in blackout mode
Since there's literally NO pumping going on, it simply runs in normal USB power supply mode, which is basically the same as it is connected to a laptop and waiting for it to even get 1%
Since the phone does NOT reach userspace, there's absolutely NO way for it to start authentication at all ({ANDROIDBOOT_ROOT}/vendor/bin/batterysecret), it's not even a bootloader-level problem, it's handled in "android" itself
Another issue is that the Xiaomi charger is "extremely" slow to respond, causing USB collapse to happen that is disabled in the kernel but NOT in UEFI
Thus it causes constant USB disconnect & the phone NEVER charges
Xiaomi-PD is literally renamed PPS because Xiaomi could NOT afford to pay for certification & it is NOT USB PD certified either
While this problem is "kinda" fixed in the Xiaomi 14 series, older devices will NOT get a QoL update for this issue
