Xiaomi Redmi Pro has a 5.5-inch full HD OLED display which has a subtle curve to the front,thanks to the use of 2.5D Gorilla Glass.

Now, lets talk about the dual camera setup camera found on the Redmi Pro. It has a 13 megapixel Sony IMX258 sensor camera on top for still images, and 5 megapixel Samsung sensor rear camera for depth on the bottom, which is quite similar to HTC's implementation of Dual Camera found on the One M8.

All in all, Redmi Pro seems to be a very promising smartphone from Xiaomi.

Google sides US and bans Huawei

Google has just released a statement that they will be banning Huawei's license to use Android immediately as it must compile to US Laws. This is a hugh blow to the Chinese smartphone maker which has already become the 3rd largest smartphone maker in the world, on the back of some solid smartphones.  Speaking to  Reuters , a Google spokesperson confirmed that “Google Play and the security protections from Google Play Protect will continue to function on existing Huawei devices.” This means while the current smartphones should receive updates, the future is surely uncertain for Huawei. The decision might leave Huawei to choose Open source version of Android, called AOSP for its devices which is devoid of any google sevices and which usually recieves the security updates much later than Android. Huawei might also contemplate launching its own OS, incase matters get worse.  It is very sad to see politics getting involved in tech industry. Other famed compa...

LeEco Le 1s Review - After a month's use

Build & Design As far as build goes I can quite easily say that it's one of the first smartphones in India to sport a metallic unibody build at a budget price. Yes,now there are phones like the Huawei honor 5x and the Redmi Note 3 but this one seems to be the best as far as build goes. In design department,LeEco further stamps its authority with a symmetrically d...
