Xiaomi Mi TV 5 to come with a 4K Quantum Dot QLED panel

Xiaomi has a big event scheduled for November 5 in China, where the new Mi TV 5 will be unveiled. It could be one of the most affordable QLED TVs in the market when it arrives.

Xiaomi’s Mi TV lineup has been very successful, even in India, where it enjoys a majority of the market share. A key reason for this has been aggressive pricing for the large, high-res panels that the competition couldn’t match. The Mi TV 5 series is on its way to continue the trend by making the switch to QLED panels.

QLED panels have a quantum dot color filter in front of an LCD backlight, bringing excellent brightness and white rendition when compared to OLEDs. Most high-end TVs from Samsung and OnePlus opt for QLED panels.

It comes as no surprise that Xiaomi is targetting the same segment with its new range of Quantum Dot Mi TV 5. The company has also confirmed that it will use 4K QLED panels from Samsung, and will boast an NTSC color gamut coverage of 108%. Other features such as support for a bunch of OTT platforms and PatchWall are also expected to arrive.

Recently, Redmi launched its first TV in China and is also expected to come to India eventually. 

At the same event, the company will launch the Mi CC9 Pro smartphone, which will be the world’s first 108MP penta-cam setup and the Mi Watch, which will be Xiaomi’s first smartwatch. The CC9 Pro is expected to come to global markets as the Mi Note 10, bringing a Snapdragon 730G chipset, a big 5,000+ mAh battery with support for fast charging and the iconic penta-cam setup which will include a 108MP primary camera, a 117-degree ultra-wide shooter, a macro lens and a telephoto shooter with a 5x optical zoom, 10x hybrid zoom and a 50x digital zoom.

The future of Magic Leap's promising AR efforts dim after layoffs

The Magic Leap Two is now further away than ever, unfortunately. Today in a blog post the augmented reality pioneer announced major layoffs and has decided to cut up to half of its workforce, according to some reports. The original Magic Leap One was supposed to be one of the first mainstream augmented reality headsets when it launched in 2018, but a high price point and lack of interest from developers left the headset high and dry after launch. According to the blog post, Magic Leap says it will be focusing its efforts on enterprise solutions (a statement HTC has made recently as well) and shift its focus away from consumer technology… at least for the time being.  The company has been open about creating a second headset that would offer improved specs for some time, but how that work will now have to go forward without half of the team , according to some estimates, remains to be seen. Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase .

He also suggested that both the COVID-19 pandem...
