Xiaomi Redmi 7 Pro With Waterdrop-Shaped Notch, 5.84-Inch Display Spotted on TENAA

Last week, the Xiaomi Redmi 7 series was alleged to have passed through 3C certification, and now the Redmi 7 Pro has apparently passed through TENAA as well, tipping specifications and design details. The smartphone is seen sporting a waterdrop-shaped notch, a dual camera setup at the back, and a rear fingerprint sensor as well. Specifications tipped include a 5.84-inch display, and a 2,900mAh battery. To recall, all three models have been tipped to come with 4G LTE support and 5V/2A charging that could translate into 10W charge support.

The TENAA listing states that the new Xiaomi variant with model number M1901F9T will come in a glossy black variant, and sport a waterdrop-shaped notch, just like other mid-range smartphones from Vivo and Oppo recently. Photos shared on TENAA, as mentioned, show a dual rear camera setup and a rear fingerprint sensor as well. The camera setup is stacked vertically and protrudes fairly out of the shell, and is seen protected by a silver ring. The volume and power buttons are situated on the right edge of the device.

It also leaks some specifications, and the listing states that the Redmi 7 Pro sports 147.76x71.89x7.8mm dimensions, a 5.84-inch display, and a 2,900mAh battery. Because this model sports a 5.84-inch display, same as the Redmi 6 Pro, it is expected to be its successor - presumably called the Redmi 7 Pro. The TENAA listings were first spotted by Fonearena.

The 3C listing showed three new Xiaomi smartphones carrying model numbers M1901F7E, M1901F7T, and M1901F7C. These are largely expected to be the Redmi 7 series models -Redmi 7A, Redmi 7, and Redmi 7 Pro - successors to the Redmi 6 family that debuted in June this year.

It is worth noting that all Redmi 6 models launched this year internally carried model numbers beginning with "M18". The new models spotted on TENAA and 3C certifications all begin with "M19", lending more weight to the claim that these are indeed the new Redmi 7 series variants in the offing. Xiaomi could unveil the new variants early 2019.

WhatsApp to Soon Get Fingerprint Authentication on Android: Report

HIGHLIGHTS Fingerprint authentication will be required for users to open WhatsApp The new WhatsApp feature is current under development It will protect the entire WhatsApp app and not specific conversations WhatsApp is reportedly working on a fingerprint authentication feature to protect its users' chats from being seen by others. The authentication, once enabled, will be required for users to open the app. The Facebook-owned instant messaging service was recently reported to bring a similar feature to iPhone as well, supporting two biometric authentication methods - both Face ID and Touch ID. It appears this won't be limited to iPhone, and users on Android will get fingerprint authentication, but no facial recognition based authentication, thanks to the lack of a widely used standard on the platform. According to WABetaInfo, a fan site that tests new WhatsApp features early, the feature is current under development, and disabled by default in the...

Huawei Employee Reportedly Reveals Android P Name, And It’s Not What You Think

It’s that time of the year when the world speculates on which dessert will be used as the name for the next Android version. While there have been several easter eggs and hints about Android P’s official name, there’s no clarity on what it might actually be called. According a report by Tabeltowo , a Huawei employee might have just leaked the full name of Android P as Android Pistachio. During a live chat with a customer, the Huawei support staff clearly said Android Pistachio in relation to a query about software updates in Poland, as seen in the image below: While simply Pistachio might not make sense to most people, considering the fact that Google is known for naming its Android version after desserts, a previous report might help. Back in February, Bloomberg had reported that Android P would be called Android Pistachio Ice Cream which makes more sense than just Pistachio. But we are sure you have other P-themed desserts in mind for...
