Redmi Note 7 Pro Price
Starting with Xiaomi, the Chinese company is getting ready to introduce the Redmi Note 7 Pro smartphone. It was briefly mentioned at the Redmi Note 7 launch event earlier this month, but the company did not share many details. We only got to know that it would come with Sony IMX586 primary sensor instead of the Samsung sensor used in Note 7.
Now, the alleged pricing of the Redmi Note 7 Pro has been leaked on Weibo. A tipster suggests that the Note 7 Pro will cost CNY 1,499 (roughly Rs. 15,000). However, it is not clear whether it is the base price or not. The Redmi Note 7 Pro is expected to be powered by Snapdragon 675 SoC. The company is also preparing to launch its first Android Go phone which will be called Redmi Go.
WhatsApp Update
WhatsApp has rolled out a new update globally for all its users that will restrict users from forwarding a message to more than five chats at once. The company had already rolled out this update for the Indian last year. The company introduced the option to send or forward messages to multiple recipients or a group at a time back in 2016. Now, the company is implementing this restriction globally.
Redmi Note 7 Drop Test, Skate Test
Two bizarre durability tests have been performed on the new Redmi Note 7. In one test, it is being thrown down the stairs and in another, a man is skating on top of the phone. In both cases, the Redmi Note 7 did not get any scratches or bends.
In the first video, Redmi CEO Lu Weibing can be seen throwing the Redmi Note 7 downstairs inside a garbage can that has been sealed. However, in the end, it came out without any damage which could be because of double-sided Corning Gorilla Glass 5 body. In another video, a blogger decides to use the Redmi Note 7 as skates. He puts all of his weight on the phone and skates for a good amount of time. Again in the end, the Redmi Note 7 comes out completely unharmed.
Google Maps Scam
