Xiaomi Mi Note 3 Launch This Month : Specifications and Price

The Xiaomi Mi Note 3 has been leaked on several occasions in the past, and now a fresh leak suggests that the smartphone may launch as early as this month. The leak also reveals that the Xiaomi Mi Note 3 may sport a 2K OLED screen made by Samsung, a big upgrade from its predecessor.


Xiaomi Mi Note 3 may launch a little ahead of its time i.e., before the third quarter ends. This means that the smartphone could launch any time in August or September, which is much earlier than when its predecessor Mi Note 2 launched last year. To recall, the Xiaomi Mi Note 2smartphone was launched last year in October, and was made available in November.

The report claims that the biggest change on the Mi Note 3 will be the 2K (1440x2560 pixels) OLED screen made by Samsung. The report also states that the smartphone will be powered by the top-end Snapdragon 835 SoC paired with 6GB of RAM as well.

Some of the other  specifications of the Xiaomi Mi Note 3 include 5.7-inch AMOLED display, 128GB storage, and 4000mAh battery. Furthermore, the Mi Note 3 is said to include 12-megapixel dual-rear cameras alongside an 8-megapixel front camera.

With respect to design, the Mi Note 3 have a front panel with near bezel-less display. There's expected to be a home button located right below the screen which is likely to integrate the fingerprint scanner as well. One of the biggest highlights of the alleged Mi Note 3, as mentioned, is said to be the dual-rear camera setup which looks similar to what we already saw on the Xiaomi Mi 6.

Apple just got the green light to test 5G internet for future iPhones

The future of mobile technologies inches ever closer as Apple received the go-ahead to test out 5G wireless broadband connectivity.

Granted by the FCC just a few months after applying for a license, Apple has been granted permission to conduct trials with 5G millimeter wave technology on 28 GHz and 39 GHz frequency bands.




The move comes shortly after the regulatory agency opened up the commercial sale of certain 5G bands, with US mobile carriers such as AT&T, Verizon, Sprintand T-Mobile now making plans of their own to offer consumer-wide 5G within the next two years.


The mobile cart before the 5G horse

5G as a wireless standard is still a work in progress, with experts generally agreeing that the next-generation tech won't hit the mainstream until around 2020.

Apple is exploring the millimeter wave band for 5G tests is interesting though, given that recent 5G announcements from Sprint and T-Mobile have both shied away from the high-frequency bands that Apple is testing.

This can lead the term "5G" to be used loosely this early in the game unveiled its 5G Evolution service this spring, which turned out to be just really fast 4G. 


Engineering data relevant to the operation of devices on wireless carriers� future 5G networks.� In other words, to start preparing for the eventual 5G iPhone that will no doubt exist one day.

Apple has no issue taking its sweet time, however, meaning it could still be years before we can reasonably expect a 5G-compatible iPhone to hit the market.

Though the next-gen service will likely skip the likes of, say, the upcoming iPhone 8, we imagine Apple doesn't intend to get left behind on the next big thing in the world of mobile technology.
