Xiaomi is gearing up to launch two powerful new tablets soon, the Redmi Gaming Tablet and the Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro. A fresh leak has now shared key details about the Pad 7S Pro, giving us a clearer idea of what to expect. Here’s what we know.

Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro Leak

According to tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the Pad 7S Pro will likely be powered by Xiaomi’s in-house XRing O1 chipset, the same one found in the Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra.

The Pad 7S Pro is expected to come with a 12.5-inch LCD display and support 120W fast charging. It’ll slot into the lineup between the Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro and the Pad 7 Ultra, so pricing will likely reflect that middle ground.

Both the Pad 7S Pro 12.5-inch and its Soft Light version have recently shown up on Bluetooth SIG, confirming the screen size and hinting at an official launch in China this month. The device was also spotted on China’s 3C certification site, listed with a 120W charger.

Xiaomi is expected to ditch the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for the XRing O1 chip in this model. Thanks to its larger size, the Pad 7S Pro could manage heat and modem-related issues better than phones, giving it more headroom for high CPU performance and smoother use with HyperOS.

Although Xiaomi hasn’t officially confirmed anything yet, all signs point to a launch by the end of June. And with four new tablets rumoured this month, the Pad 7S Pro might just be the start of Xiaomi’s next big tablet push.

  • It allows users to choose between the Standard compressed version and the HD version of media downloads.

WhatsApp is rolling out a new feature for Android beta users that lets you choose the quality of photos and videos that get automatically downloaded to your phone.

According to trusted WhatsApp Beta source WABetaInfo, the feature is now available for users on WhatsApp beta version 2.25.18.11 with more beta users expected to get access in the coming weeks. It’s called “Auto-download quality” and can be found under Settings > Storage and data, just below the “Media upload quality” option.

There are two choices –

  • Standard quality, which downloads a compressed version of the media
  • HD quality, which downloads the high-resolution version directly

Even if you select standard quality for auto-download, you’ll still be able to view the HD version manually within the chat, as long as it’s still stored on WhatsApp’s servers.

WABetaInfo report also revealed that WhatsApp has implemented a dual-upload system for HD media. When you send a photo or video in HD, the app uploads both the standard and HD versions. This is necessary because WhatsApp uses end-to-end encryption and can’t compress files on its servers. So, your phone handles both versions before sending them out.

This way, if the person receiving the media has set downloads to standard quality, only the compressed version will be downloaded to their device, keeping things quick and data-friendly, while still offering the HD option if needed.

FAQs

Q1. What is the new “Auto-download quality” feature in WhatsApp?

Answer. WhatsApp now lets Android beta users choose between Standard quality (compressed media) or HD quality (high-resolution media) for automatic downloads.

Q2. Where can users find this feature in the WhatsApp app?

Answer. The “Auto-download quality” option is located under Settings > Storage and data, just below the “Media upload quality” setting.

Q3. How does WhatsApp handle HD media uploads?

Answer. WhatsApp uses a dual-upload system, where both Standard and HD versions of the media are sent due to end-to-end encryption, ensuring efficient downloads.

Apple is getting ready to reveal its next big software update for the iPhone. This was expected to be called iOS 19 according to the number sequence but Apple is now likely to launch it as iOS 26. One of the biggest changes, however, is a brand-new look built around what Apple is calling “Liquid Glass” UI elements.

Expect to see this new visual style across everyday UI elements such as buttons, toolbars and tab bars, all adopting a reflective, glossy look. The home screen is also getting a refresh with app icons likely to have a rounder shape and shiny borders.

But this isn’t just about the iPhone. Apple plans to roll out this design language across macOS, iPadOS, watchOS and tvOS, creating a more unified look across all Apple devices. While the overall layout and navigation will still be tailored to each device, the shared design elements will make the entire ecosystem feel more cohesive.

The “Liquid Glass” visuals are also said to align with future hardware updates like the rumoured 2027 iPhone with an all-screen, curved-edge design and minimal bezels.

More details will be officially shared during Apple’s WWDC keynote on June 9.

Highlights

  • Nothing Phone (3) teaser hints at ultra-precise engineering, removing visible screws for a cleaner and more seamless aesthetic.
  • The Glyph Interface is reportedly dropped but the latest teaser doesn’t confirm if the signature transparent back will remain.
  • Nothing Phone (3) is set to launch on July 1, expected to be the brand’s first true flagship.

The Nothing Phone (3) is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated smartphone launches of this season. The UK-based brand has already shared several teasers leading up to the launch timeline. One of the most notable was the decision to drop the Glyph Interface that defined the look of earlier models. Now, a new teaser has arrived.

A new teaser posted on X (formerly Twitter) offers a fresh glimpse of the Phone (3), pointing to subtle but deliberate design changes. While the industrial look remains, Nothing describes the device in the caption of the X post as the result of “ultra-precise engineering.”

The teaser includes an image showing a portion of the phone’s rear, highlighting clean lines and sharp detailing.

One noticeable shift is the absence of the previously exposed screws. Instead, one screw now appears to be hidden under a plastic circular cap, blending into the design more seamlessly. This change could address past criticism, where the visible screws were seen as a slightly awkward design choice.

The teaser doesn’t confirm whether the phone will keep the transparent back that has become a Nothing trademark, although earlier sketches suggested that some level of transparency would return.

What’s not visible this time is the new dot-matrix style lighting system that’s rumoured to replace the old Glyph Interface. It was shown in a teaser a few days ago but it hasn’t been seen here.

It’s still unclear if there will be changes to the phone’s overall shape, but one thing is clear is that Nothing is refining its design language with a more polished, cohesive look.

As for the rest of the details, Nothing has already confirmed the Phone (3) will launch on July 1 and is expected to be the brand’s first true flagship, priced at around £800.

FAQs

Q1. What design changes are hinted at in the Nothing Phone (3) teaser?

Answer. The teaser suggests a cleaner, more seamless look, removing visible screws and possibly hiding elements under a plastic cap for a refined aesthetic.

Q2. Is the Nothing Phone (3) keeping its transparent back and Glyph Interface?

Answer. The Glyph Interface has been dropped, but it’s unclear if the signature transparent back will remain, though past sketches hinted at some level of transparency.

Q3. When is the Nothing Phone (3) launching and what is its expected price?

Answer. Nothing has confirmed a July 1 launch date, and it is expected to be the brand’s first true flagship, priced around £800.

Samsung Expands Sleep Apnea Detection on Galaxy Watches to 36 More Countries

0

Highlights

  • Samsung’s Sleep Apnea detection is now available across 34 European nations, Australia, and Singapore.
  • The feature has CE certification for the EU, along with approvals from the FDA, South Korea, Brazil and Canada.
  • Available via the Samsung Health Monitor app, it tracks two sleep cycles before showing results.

Samsung is making sure one of its most important smartwatch health features is more accessible. The Sleep Apnea detection in Galaxy Watches is now rolling out to 36 new countries, which includes 34 across Europe, plus Australia and Singapore. This feature was first introduced on the Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra in the U.S. and is now finally going global.

Sleep Apnea Feature on Galaxy Watch

In a newsroom post, Samsung shared that the Sleep Apnea detection tool has received CE (Conformité Européenne) certification for the European Economic Area. That means it meets the EU’s standards for health, safety, and environmental protection, clearing the way for the wider release.

The feature is available via the Samsung Health Monitor app, using the Galaxy Watch’s BioActive Sensor. It’s designed to detect signs of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea, offering insights that could encourage users to seek medical advice if needed.

Samsung highlights that this feature has already received De Novo authorisation from the U.S. FDA and is also approved by South Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, Brazil’s ANVISA and Health Canada. That gives it credibility in multiple regions as a helpful screening tool.

To use it, you’ll need a Galaxy Watch running Wear OS 5.0 or later, paired with a phone using Android 9.0 or newer. The watch needs to track two sleep cycles before it can show results, as it uses that data to check for breathing irregularities during sleep.

However, Samsung is clear that this is not a medical device. The data from your watch should be viewed as a prompt to seek medical advice, not a confirmed diagnosis. If your watch suggests possible sleep apnea, it’s best to consult a healthcare professional.

FAQs

Q1. What is Samsung’s Sleep Apnea detection feature, and how does it work?

Answer. It is available via the Samsung Health Monitor app, using the Galaxy Watch’s BioActive Sensor to track two sleep cycles and detect moderate to severe sleep apnea.

Q2. Which countries are getting the Sleep Apnea feature on the Galaxy Watch now?

Answer. The feature is now rolling out to 36 more countries, including 34 European nations, Australia, and Singapore, after receiving CE certification for the EU.

Q3. Is Samsung’s Sleep Apnea detection tool a medical device?

Answer. No, Samsung clarifies that this tool is not a confirmed medical diagnosis. It serves as a screening feature and advises users to consult a healthcare professional.

Highlights

  • The watchOS 26 update will let Third-Party Widgets in Control Center.
  • Apple is finally allowing developers to integrate custom widgets, expanding functionality beyond Apple’s built-in toggles.
  • Users will add, remove, and rearrange widgets via the Watch app on iPhone, making quick access to features like hydration tracking easier.
  • Apple may unveil watchOS 26 alongside iOS 26, macOS 26 & iPadOS 26 at WWDC25 on June 9

Apple is getting ready to make a long-requested change to the Apple Watch. According to an exclusive report by 9to5Mac, watchOS 26 will bring support for third-party widgets in the Control Center. It is something users have been asking for over the years.

As of now, Control Center on the Apple Watch has only included Apple’s own tiles and toggles. But with this update, developers will be able to integrate their own widgets directly into Control Center, allowing users to access more app features and shortcuts at a glance.

A trusted source reveals that the new layout will be fully customisable through the Watch app on iPhone. This means you’ll be able to add, remove, or rearrange widgets much more easily than the current method, which requires you to do it manually on the watch.

This opens up tons of possibilities such as a hydration tracker with a quick log button, a shortcut to lock your doors via a smart home app, or even one-tap access to your favourite workout. Essentially, it brings Control Center more in line with Apple Watch complications, giving users more power and flexibility over what they see and use most.

Of course, there’s always a chance this feature might get delayed or tweaked before the official rollout. Even though the source has been reliable in the past, it’s possible this feature could arrive later in the cycle if it doesn’t make it to the WWDC25 keynote.

Speaking of WWDC25, Apple is expected to announce iOS 26, macOS 26, iPadOS 26, and watchOS 26, with a focus on design upgrades and long-awaited features. With AI reportedly playing a smaller role this year, attention will likely shift to things like improved window management on iPad.

Apple’s keynote is set to kick off on Monday, June 9.

FAQs

Q1. What major change is coming to Apple Watch with watchOS 26?

Answer. Apple is introducing support for third-party widgets in the Control Center, allowing developers to integrate app shortcuts and features for easier access.

Q2. How will users customise Control Center widgets in watchOS 26?

Answer. Users can add, remove, and rearrange widgets through the Watch app on iPhone, making it more flexible and customizable than ever before.

Q3. When will Apple announce watchOS 26 and other updates?

Answer. Apple is expected to unveil watchOS 26 at WWDC25 on June 9, alongside iOS 26, macOS 26, and iPadOS 26, focusing on design enhancements and new features.
