* The device is confirmed to feature a 6.7-inch display and a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC.
* The smartphone is expected to pack 12GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB of internal storage.

Nothing is gearing up for the launch of the Nothing Phone (2) smartphone.
The company already had confirmed the launch date of the device as July 11.

Additionally, ahead of the official launch, the company has been confirming key details of the upcoming Nothing Phone (2) smartphone via its Twitter handle.

A couple of days back, the brand confirmed the battery capacity and display size details of the Nothing Phone (2). Also, ahead of the official launch, the Nothing Phone (2) has been receiving a few certifications lately.

The device was spotted at BIS certification back in March.
In a recent development now, the Nothing Phone (2) has received the NBTC certification.

Nothing Phone (2) is set to debut globally and in India on July 11th. The company has already confirmed the chipset, display size and battery capacity of the phone.

Now, ahead of the launch next month, Nothing founder and CEO Carl Pei has teased the USB Type-C to Type-C cable that will be bundled with the Phone (2). This comes with a brand-new design, unlike the one that shipped with the Phone (1).

Carl Pei founded Nothing is famous for its transparent design accessories. Till now, the company made transparent TWS earbuds and smartphones. However, in a recent movie, Carl confirmed it would soon release a transparent Type-C to Type-C cable for its upcoming launch.

Hours after teasing the cable, the founder revealed the design of its upcoming cable via Twitter.  It seems that the transparent charging cable would be limited to Nothing Phone (2) as of now.

In an official statement, Manu Sharma, VP and GM of Nothing India said: “Nothing smartphones are known for their iconic transparent design. These designs require hi-tech manufacturing processes and precision engineering which have led to enhancement of smartphone manufacturing capabilities in India. Our drive to manufacture in India reflects our commitment towards the local consumers and their demands. We are proud to announce that Phone (2) will be manufactured in India.”

Nothing Phone (2) Receives NBTC Certification

As per the NBTC certification listing, the device carries the model number as A065. This is the same model number which was exclusively revealed back in February.

Apart from the model number, the NBTC certification also confirms the moniker as Phone (2).

As far as the specifications of the handset go, it is confirmed to feature a 6.7-inch display.

We can expect the smartphone to make use of an AMOLED panel which could offer a 120Hz refresh rate.

Under the hood, the device is confirmed to feature a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. As per the Geekbench test result, the device will ship with 12GB of RAM.

We can expect the Nothing Phone (2) to come in 128GB/256GB storage configuration.

As for the software, the handset is expected to boot Android 13 out of the box.
The smartphone is expected to pack a 4,700mAh battery which likely will support fast charging.

Currently, the other key specifications of the Nothing Phone (2) such as rear camera configuration, front camera details, as well as storage and RAM configuration are yet to be revealed.

In a piece of related news, the renders of the Nothing Phone (2) were leaked earlier this month.

The leaked renders revealed that the Nothing Phone (2) will have a minor design change compared to the Phone (1).

The renders also confirmed that the Phone (2) will have a slight alteration in the alignment of the glyph interface.

However, soon after these renders were leaked, Nothing CEO Carl Pei took to Twitter and responded with the single word “Fake”, thereby refuting the authenticity of the leaked renders.

Nothing Phone (2) Expected Specifications

* Display: 6.7-inch AMOLED display, 120Hz refresh rate, Full HD+ resolution, punch-hole cutout.
* Processor: Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC with Adreno 730 GPU.
* RAM And storage: 8GB/12GB RAM, 128GB/256GB of internal storage.
* Software: Android 13-based Nothing OS 2.0.
* Rear camera: 50MP main camera, 50MP ultra-wide lens.
* Front camera: 32MP.
* Other specifications: In-display fingerprint scanner, dual speakers.
* Battery: 4700mAh, 33W fast charging support.

Nothing Phone (2): What is known so far

Nothing Phone (2) being spotted on the BIS website hints towards an imminent India launch.

However, tipster Abhishek Yadav claims that Nothing Phone (2) has only cleared stage 1 of the BIS certification and stage 2 approval is yet to be given.

Any product has to clear 2 stages of approval before launching in India, so Nothing Phone (2) might just arrive in H2 2023.

Carl Pei’s Nothing has already confirmed that Nothing Phone (2) will be a much more premium device than its predecessor and will be powered by a flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 series chipset.

Although it is not confirmed if the chipset will be Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 or Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, the possibility of it being the latter is higher.

Other expected specs include up to 12GB RAM, up to 256GB storage, an FHD+ AMOLED display, a 120Hz refresh rate, a 5000mAh battery, and a glyph LED interface.

Details about the other specs are still kept well under wraps, so we’ll have to wait some more to know them.

Meanwhile, let’s have a look at the specs of Nothing Phone 1 to get an idea about what Nothing Phone (2) might entail.

Nothing Phone (2) TDRA listing Spotted

Nothing Phone (2) has received TDRA certification. The device has appeared with the model number “A065” in the database of the UAE’s certification platform.

The same device has been spotted at the BIS certification in India and on Geekbench.

These listings show that it will not take too long for the Nothing Phone (2) to go official.

According to reports, the Nothing Phone (2) will debut in July in India.

Before the expected launch, the brand has been gradually confirming the key features of the device.

While the original Nothing Phone (1) was powered by an upper midrange chip, the Phone (2) will feature a more powerful flagship SoC.

Nothing Phone (2) Gets a Transparent Type-C Cable

Nothing is all set to launch its second smartphone on July 11 in India and in other global markets.

The phone will have the same transparent design as its predecessor, Phone (2).

However, we expect that there could be some improvements in the glyph interface and LED lightning.

The transparent design of the Phone (1) helped the company to stand out among the ocean of smartphone companies in the mid-budget range.

The company has announced that it will now release a special-looking cable for its upcoming device.

Carl Pei earlier today teased the cable by tweeting, “Man our new USB Type-C cable is nice”.

Four hours later, the founder revealed the first look of the Nothing Phone (2) transparent Type-C cable. As per the image shared by Carl, both the end ports would have transparent lids instead of the plastic coating that we get to see on the regular cables. Inside the ports, we can see the Nothing logo.

Do note that the rest of the part i.e. wire would be covered by different materials, polycarbonate most likely.

The rest of the details are wrapped. As of now, it would be hard to say if the cables would be sold separately or not.

The Nothing Phone (2) smartphone boxes are expected to carry these transparent bundles.

Nothing Phone (2) USB Type-C cable’s Design

There is a new silver-coloured finish with a transparent design for the outer shell. This is in line with the phone’s transparent design.

The Type-C cable has ‘Nothing’ branding, which is again new. The colour of the cable is White, similar to the one that came with the Nothing Phone (1).

Nothing Phone (2) will also not come with a charging brick in the box.

The company is selling a 45W charging brick on Flipkart, though the Phone (1) only supports 33W fast charging.  It remains to be seen whether Nothing Phone (2) will get faster charging speeds.

Nothing Phone (2) Expected India Price

Nothing Phone (2) is expected to launch at around Rs 40,000 in India. Nothing Phone (2) will be available for purchase on Flipkart.

Nothing Phone (2) Design hinted by the company

The latest Nothing phone is expected to have a design similar to the Nothing Phone (1).

This is something that the company has hinted in a recent interview and the rumour mill has also suggested previously.

When the company’s CEO Carl Pei was asked about Glyph Interface with LEDs at the back that we saw on the Phone (1), Pei asserted that the upcoming 5G phone will have more customization options and functionality.

This suggests that we will likely get to see the same design.

The company has also hinted that the major focus this time is on improving and offering a better software experience to users.

He didn’t explicitly mention we will get the same LED design at the back of the Phone (2), but the mention of more customization options suggests that Nothing is planning to offer an older design.

There are chances that the new Nothing phone could come with some changes at the back panel to offer users a refreshing look.  The brand has previously confirmed that the new 5G phone features an aluminum side frame.

We will likely get more details on the design department soon as the launch event is nearing.

Nothing Phone (2) Launch Date

Nothing Phone (2) is scheduled to release on July 11th, the company announced on Twitter.

The launch event will take place in London at 16:00 BST which would be 8:30 pm IST for viewers in India.

Nothing will live stream the event on its official website.

Nothing Phone (2): Expected Specifications

The Nothing Phone (2) will be powered by a flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, which the OnePlus 11R smartphone is also using.

The device sports a 6.7-inch display and a 4,700mAh battery under the hood. While the company hasn’t confirmed the charging details, we expect it to offer support for fast charging tech because the same was also available with the Nothing Phone (1).

The details of the camera sensors are yet to be revealed by the company.
Nothing also revealed that its new Phone (2) smartphone will be eligible to receive three years of Android OS upgrades and four years of security patches.

The company has promised that the latest Nothing OS build will offer a faster experience and more features to users.
We expect the device to ship with Android 13 OS out of the box because the company offers the latest operating system with its new device.

Nothing OS 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and Mladen Hoyss: A Brief History

Nothing has had a bit of an interesting history since its inception.

With Nothing OS 1.0, the company had a small team of roughly five people and outside contractors building up its operating system, hence the resemblance to stock Android and few unique features.

Following the launch of Phone (1), the company scaled up its team to nearly 100 people, building Nothing OS 1.5 with more features and improvements. Now we’re moving into the next stage of the company’s own Android system: Nothing OS.

Speaking with Hoyss about his introduction to Nothing, he first started with Blloc and the Zero 18, focusing on minimalism.
The company then went on to make Ratio, a launcher also focused on minimalism that’s available on the Google Play Store. Now he works at Nothing as the company’s Software Creative Designer, and there’s a lot of change that he wants to incorporate.

Hoyss’ story, he tells me, started with seeing the original Phone (1) and enjoying the design of it, but that the software “wasn’t what you expect” based on the design of the phone. He then took his team of “very talented designers” from Blloc to Nothing to begin work on creating a new look for Nothing OS.

Hoyss tells me that there may be some overlap visually and they’re “kind of on the same page”, but that it’s still an entirely different product that has to be “edgy and techy.”

As a result, when it comes to Nothing OS 2.0, the company wants to “start almost from scratch” in terms of looks, as it has the “opportunity” and “momentum” to do so. The key concept behind Nothing OS 2.0, according to Hoyss, is “functional aesthetics”, which is a data science term that relates to taking a lot of data and trying to visualize it and make it easy to digest.

Faqs on Nothing Phone (2)

1) Nothing Phone (2): What to expect?

Ans) Pei has been teasing the Phone (2) for a while now, hinting that it will deliver a premium experience compared to the Phone (1).
The Phone (2) upgrades to last year’s top-end Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip from Qualcomm from the Snapdragon 778G+, which powered the first one.

With the Phone (2) will arrive Nothing OS 2.0, which the company says will combine the best of Android to enhance accessibility and efficiency for users.
During an interview, Pei disclosed that Nothing is making significant investments in software development, particularly emphasising the Phone 2 s software.
According to reports, Nothing has expanded its software team and now includes several experienced individuals who previously worked at OnePlus, Pei’s former company.

Nothing has confirmed that the Phone (2) will feature a bigger display, about 0.15 inches bigger than the Phone (1). Then, the Phone (2) will also boast a bigger battery of 4700mAh, 200mAh more than what it was in the Phone (1). Also, it has a lower carbon footprint than the first-gen model.

The company has announced that the Phone (2) will be made in India. The Phone (2) will go on sale in India through Flipkart.

2) What are the specs & features of Nothing Phone (2)?

Ans) Nothing has made official announcements regarding the upcoming Nothing Phone (2), providing insights into its specifications.

The device will feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED screen, with speculation suggesting a possible FHD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 120Hz, promising a visually immersive experience.

Confirmed details reveal that the Nothing Phone (2) will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset, ensuring powerful performance. Geekbench sightings have hinted at 12 GB of RAM and the device operating on the latest Android 13.

To deliver a productive and minimalist user interface, the phone will introduce Nothing OS 2.0, which will overlay the Android operating system.

Nothing has committed to providing three major Android OS upgrades and three years of security updates, ensuring long-term software support.
The Nothing Phone (2) will come with a 4,700mAh battery, providing ample power for extended usage.

However, details regarding its fast charging capabilities are yet to be disclosed.
While specifics about the camera setup remain undisclosed, the device is known to feature sustainable materials and an aluminum frame, combining durability and eco-conscious design.

3) What are the details of Nothing Phone (2) TDRA certification?

Ans) *The Nothing Phone (2) has received the TDRA certification.
* The listing shows the model number A065 and this also reveals the marketing name of the phone.
* Beyond the model number and marketing name, the listing doesn’t reveal any key specifications of the phone but we already few key details of the phone.

4) Nothing’s leaked Phone 2 design looks like a curvier follow-up to its first phone .Details?

Ans) Ahead of the official launch of the Nothing Phone 2 next month, leaker OnLeaks has published unofficial renders based on a prototype of the new device.
You might be disappointed if you’re expecting the phone to be a radical departure from Nothing’s previous devices since it looks like the essential design of the Phone 1 lives on in its successor.

But there are a couple of differences to tease out from the renders, though cautions the phone’s design may have changed since this prototype was produced. Most notably, the flat, squared-off top and sides of the Phone 1 appear to have been given more of a curve for the Phone 2.

As Android Authority notes, it makes the Phone 2 look like an iPhone 6 next to the iPhone 5-style design of the Phone 1. Notes that the front and back of the Phone 2 also have a subtle curve to them.

If these renders are accurate, it appears as though the back of the Phone 2 will also have a flashing glyph interface similar to the Phone 1.

But although the overall shape of the lighting strips is similar, several of them have been split into separate strips, such as around the wireless charging coil and dual cameras.
The renders match a cropped image of the handset Nothing released last month.

Nothing has officially said the Phone 2 will be announced in July, a year after the launch of its predecessor.

It’s already announced that the phone will be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset, will have a bigger 4,700mAh battery, 6.7-inch display, and — unlike the Phone 1 — will be officially released in the US.

5) Nothing Phone 2 to ‘enhance’ India’s smartphone manufacturing capabilities; know how?

Ans) Nothing Phone 2 will be made in India, the VP and GM of Nothing India, Manu Sharma, said today.

In a statement shared with the media, the executive confirmed the Phone 2, Nothing’s upcoming “premium” smartphone, will feature a transparent design requiring hi-tech manufacturing processes and precision engineering potentially contributing to the enhancement of country’s smartphone manufacturing capabilities.

Phone 2 is scheduled for global launch in July.

“Nothing smartphones are known for their iconic transparent design.
These designs require hi-tech manufacturing processes and precision engineering which have led to enhancement of smartphone manufacturing capabilities in India,” Sharma said, adding that “our drive to manufacture in India reflects our commitment towards the local consumers and their demands.
We are proud to announce that Phone 2 will be manufactured in India.”
London-based Nothing is working on expanding local customer support, alongside, with plans to open over 230 authorised service centres in more than 250 cities.

Nothing Phone 2 everything we know so far

Ahead of launch, the Phone 2 is being touted as one of the most sustainable smartphones on the market.
The phone is said to be using 3x more recycled or bio-based parts than Phone 1 with 100 percent recycled aluminium for the outer frame and entirely plastic-free packaging.

The Phone 2 also has a carbon footprint over 5kg lower than the Phone 1, Nothing says, and the final assembly plants where it is being build are claimed to be powered by 100 per cent renewable energy.

The Phone 2 is confirmed to be powered by Qualcomm’s flagship— but a bit dated— Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1, theoretically giving it about 80 percent faster performance than the Phone 1 with the Snapdragon 778G Plus inside. It will come with a screen that is 0.15-inch bigger than Phone 1’s (i.e., 6.7-inch) and boast of a battery capacity of 4,700mAh (200mAh up from the Phone 1’s).

Team My Mobile

June 20, 2023

HIGHLIGHTS

* The Vivo X100 Pro+ will be launched as the successor to the Vivo X90 Pro+.
* The Vivo X100 Pro+ will likely look similar to the top-end model from the Vivo X80 series.
* The Vivo X100 Pro+ is expected to be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset.

Chinese smartphone maker Vivo has recently launched the Vivo X90 series in India and is prepping to unveil the successor Vivo X100 series in the coming months.
However, ahead of that, the expected design of the top-end model, the Vivo X100 Pro+, has been leaked by a tipster on the micro-blogging site Weibo.
Also, the upcoming smartphone has been tipped to come up with a 200MP telephoto camera.

Vivo X100 Pro+ Design (Expected)

Based on leaked information, tipster Fixed Focus Digital has published an imagined render of the upcoming Vivo X100 Pro+. According to the leaked render, the vivo X100 Pro+ will include a camera module on the left side, surrounded by a rectangular matrix area.

This design appears to be comparable to that of the Vivo X80 series, implying a continuity of aesthetics rather than a dramatic divergence from the Vivo X90 series.

Vivo X100 Pro+ Specifications (Expected)

The Vivo X100 Pro+ might be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. On the other hand, the base Vivo X100 and mid-variant Vivo X100 Pro will likely be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 SoC, according to information provided by another tipster titled Digital Chat Station.

Similar to a recent report, a new leak suggests that all the models in the series will be equipped with a periscope lens that will enable people to experience a better zoom camera.
The Vivo 100 Pro+ will reportedly continue to offer the 1-inch Sony IMX989 primary camera sensor.

However, as per tipster Ice Universe, the top-end variant will offer a 200MP telephoto camera.

Vivo X100 Pro+ launch Timeline (Expected)

There is no official confirmation, but a tipster has hinted that the Chinese smartphone maker might unveil the Vivo X100 Pro+ in the first few months of the upcoming year.
Also, considering that the Vivo X90 Pro+ did not launch in India, it is unsure if the Vivo X100 Pro+ will come to India or not.

VIVO X100 PRO+ WILL BE THE FIRST SMARTPHONE WITH A 200 MP TELEPHOTO LENS

The smartphone industry has been evolving rapidly over the years, with manufacturers constantly striving to overcome one another in terms of features and performance.
One area where there has been significant progress is in smartphone photography.

With high end devices boasting advanced camera systems that can rival professional cameras.
The upcoming Vivo X100 Pro+ will take smartphone photography to the next level. Thanks to its unprecedented 200 MP camera telephoto lens.

Vivo X100 Pro+ Set to Come with Unprecedented 200 MP Telephoto Lens

According to well known insider Ice Universe, the Vivo X100 Pro+ will feature a telephoto lens with an image sensor resolution of 200 MP.

This is a significant improvement over the telephoto lenses available in other smartphones. And we expect it to produce images with stunning detail and clarity.

Ice Universe was impressed by the new camera technology.
He said that it would “destroy the telephoto lenses of all other smartphones. From 1x to 100x”.

The 200 MP camera on the Vivo X100 Pro+ will also allow for high quality zooming, with Ice Universe reporting that the device will produce images with a resolution of 18 MP even with 10x zoom.

This is a remarkable feat, and will make the Vivo X100 Pro+ a popular choice for photography enthusiasts who demand the best from their smartphone cameras.

Ice Universe is a reputable source for smartphone leaks, having accurately predicted trends such as waterfall screens, the notch in the iPhone X, and the design of the upcoming iPhone 14 with a Dynamic Island cutout.

Other sources also provided information about various 200 MP image sensors that are being developed for future smartphones.

This suggests that the Vivo X100 Pro+ is just the beginning.

And that we can expect even more advanced camera systems in the future.
In conclusion, the Vivo X100 Pro+ will be a game changer in the smartphone industry. Thanks to its unprecedented 200 MP camera and telephoto lens.

This is a remarkable feat of engineering, and will set a new standard for smartphone photography.

So, it will be interesting to see how other manufacturers respond to this new development.

And whether they will be able to match the X100 Pro+ in terms of camera performance.

Faqs on Vivo X100 Pro +

1) Vivo X100 Pro+ tipped to feature 200MP periscope telephoto camera.Details?

Ans) Vivo is expected to announce the Vivo X100 series as early as November this year. Like the Vivo X90 lineup, the X100 series is said to have three models, such as the Vivo X100, the Vivo X100 Pro, and the Vivo X100 Pro+. A new leak courtesy of tipster Digital Chat Station reveals that the X100 Pro+ will feature the highest-resolution periscope telephoto camera.

According to DCS, the Vivo X100 Pro+ will be equipped with a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. This ground-breaking feature is expected to outperform the telephoto capabilities of all other smartphones on the market, which offer up to 100x.

In addition, previous leaks have claimed that it will continue to feature a 1-inch Sony IMX989 50-megapixel primary camera, which was made available on the Vivo X90 Pro+. At present, there is no information available about the other cameras on the X100 Pro+.
While the Vivo X90 and X90 Pro were released in the global market, the X90 Pro+ remained exclusive to the Chinese market. Hence, it is unclear whether the X100 Pro+ will debut in markets outside of China.
The upcoming Dimensity 9300 chipset is reportedly what powers the Vivo X100 and X100 Pro. The X100 Pro+, on the other hand, will use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which is expected to debut in October. It is speculated that the X100 Pro+ will debut in the first quarter of 2024.

2) Vivo X100 Pro+ leaked render reveals surprising design, expected to debut early next year.Details?

Ans) Tipster Fixed Focus Digital has recently shared an imagined render of the upcoming Vivo X100 Pro+, providing a glimpse into its design based on leaked information. The render suggests that the vivo X100 Pro+ will feature a camera module positioned on the left side, enclosed within a rectangular matrix area. This design appears to be similar to the one seen in the vivo X80 series, indicating a continuation of aesthetics rather than a significant departure from the Vivo X90 series.

A Closer Look at the Aesthetics of Vivo X100 Pro+

According to another tipster Digital Chat Station, the Vivo X100 Pro+ is anticipated to make its debut early next year. It can be speculated that the lower-end variants, namely the Vivo X100 Pro and vivo X100 standard versions, may be unveiled by the end of this year.

Reports indicate that the Vivo X100 and X100 Pro will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 chipset, while the X100 Pro+ is expected to feature the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile platform. This suggests that vivo considers the overall performance of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 to surpass that of the Dimensity 9300. However, it is worth noting that Vivo and MediaTek are reportedly collaborating to optimize the Dimensity 9300 chipset, aiming to maximize its performance.

In terms of imaging capabilities, leaks suggest that the vivo X100 will sport a rear camera setup consisting of a 50-megapixel Sony IMX989 main sensor, a 32-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 12-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, with dual optical image stabilization support.

Prior to the launch of the vivo X100 series, the final model of the vivo X90 series, the vivo X90s, is scheduled to be released and will serve as the official device for the Hangzhou Asian Games.

Take a look at the benefits that Amazon Prime subscribers are eligible for.

Amazon and Uber have collaborated for the second time to offer special rewards to their users in India.
They are now offering 5% cashback rewards to eligible users on every Uber ride.

The two companies previously came together last year to offer special discounts and complimentary ride upgrades.
This year’s offer is limited to cashback and here is everything you need to know.

Discounted Uber rides for Amazon Prime Subscribers

As a part of the collaboration of both companies, Amazon Prime subscribers will be eligible to receive a 5 percent cashback on every Uber ride they take.

The reward is split into two parts – 4 percent credits in Uber Cash and 1 percent cashback in Amazon Pay.

Those users who opt to pay for their Uber ride using any other payment method such as cash, credit/debit card, UPI, or any other mode will not be eligible for any reward.

How to receive cashback on every Uber ride?

In order to receive cashback, make sure that your Amazon Prime membership is active.
Then, you need to connect your Amazon Pay balance to your Uber wallet.
When paying for your Uber ride, use your Amazon Pay balance as the payment method.
Every Tuesday, 4 percent cashback will be added to your Uber Cash balance for the trips you took in the previous week.

Additionally, at the end of each ride, 1 percent cashback in Amazon Pay will be automatically added to your balance, as per Uber.

The first phase of the partnership saw Amazon and Uber collaborate to offer three monthly upgrades at no additional charge and exclusive access to UberPremier for the price of UberGo for Prime members.

This second part of the offer condition is an important one to remember.

You will not earn any cashback if you choose to pay for Uber using any other payment method like cash, UPI, credit/debit card, or gift card. Another important thing to note is that the maximum Uber Cash credit that a rider can earn in a week is Rs 300.

All eligible users will get 1% Amazon Pay cashback added to their Amazon Pay balance right after the ride completion. However, the 4% Uber Cash credit will be added on a weekly basis.

Uber says it will add credits for all the rides taken in the previous week on each Tuesday.

These credits can then be used to pay for your future Uber rides.

The company has not confirmed any details about the launch.
Meanwhile, details about the upcoming flagship smartphone from OnePlus have surfaced on the web.

The latest one comes from tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS), who has revealed the display details of the flagship phone.

The tipster has also revealed some details about the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro, which is likely to launch next month.

Let’s take a look at the OnePlus 12, OnePlus Ace 2 Pro specifications, features and other details revealed so far.

OnePlus 12, Ace 2 Pro: Everything You Need To Know this Far

The OnePlus 12 5G will likely launch in the last quarter of 2023 with some top-of-the-line specs.
The phone’s display details have leaked online.

According to tipster Digital Chat Station (via), the device will feature an OLED display which will be sourced from Samsung Display Corporation. The screen will have curved edges and also sport a hole-punch cutout at the top centre.

OnePlus 11 also has a curved display but the hole-punch cutout is located at the top left corner. If the leaked details are true, OnePlus might finally join other Android OEMs who launch their flagship phones with a centrally aligned hole-punch cutout.

The display will offer support for a 120Hz refresh rate and come with a QHD+ resolution as well.

The phone is likely to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, which will launch in October. Therefore, there are chances of the OnePlus flagship phone launching in China in November or December 2023. This could be followed by a global launch in January or February 2024.

The device is tipped to feature a triple-camera setup on the back. There will be a 50MP main camera sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide-angle camera and a 64MP periscope sensor. Under the hood, there will likely be a 5000mAh battery with 100W fast charging support.

Details about the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro have leaked as well. DCS claims that the device will feature a curved-edge OLED display with a centrally-aligned hole-punch cutout made by BOE. The screen will feature a 1.5K resolution of 1240 x 2772 pixels.

Some leaked details suggest that the Ace 2 Pro will sport a 6.74-inch panel. It is also said to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC and a 5000mAh battery.

The device is also said to launch with two charging options. The base configuration will offer 100W charging, whereas the faster charging option will feature 150W charging. It is likely to boot Android 13-based ColorOS 13 in China.

The device is also tipped to feature a 50MP Sony IMX890 main camera sensor with support for optical image stabilisation (OIS). Other details about the phones are under wraps. We will share more details as and when available.

OnePlus Ace 2 Pro Specifications (Expected)

The latest leak comes from tipster Digital Chat Station who shared the details on Weibo.

* Display: OnePlus Ace 2 Pro is said to feature a 1.5K resolution curved display with high PWM dimming. The specifics of the display haven’t been revealed yet.

* Processor: The smartphone will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, according to the tipster. It is also said to be equipped with a large vapour chamber system for heat dissipation.

* Cameras: Details are still scarce but the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro is expected to sport a 50MP Sony IMX890 primary camera with optical image stabilisation (OIS).

* Battery, charging: OnePlus is reportedly planning to offering two charging options with the Ace 2 Pro. The base model will come with 100W fast charging support, while the top-end variant will have 150W fast charging support. But both models will pack the same 5,000mAh battery.

OnePlus Ace 2 Pro Specifications (Rumoured)

The tipster revealed that the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro will have an OLED screen with curved edges and narrow bezels. The screen will support a 1.5K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and also support high-frequency dimming.

Qualcomm is likely to announce the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 2 chip at some point this month or by early July. It is said to be an overclocked version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. It is said that the iQOO 11S and the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro will be the first phones to feature it.

Today’s leak reveals that the OnePlus flagship will be equipped with a new vapour chamber liquid cooling unit with a large surface area.

The OnePlus Ace 2 Pro is also tipped to feature a 50-megapixel Sony IMX890 primary camera with OIS support. However, there is no information available on the auxiliary cameras of the device.

It is said to pack a 5,000mAh battery and will come in two fast charging options, such as 100W and 150W. The Ace 2 Pro is likely to debut in July or August in China.

There are also rumours that suggest the Ace 2V will launch globally as the Nord 3 smartphone.

So it’s very likely that the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro will launch as OnePlus 11T in markets outside China.
