Rumour | Xiaomi may have pulled the Android 10 update for the Mi A2 again

While the Mi A3 continues its wait for Android 10, its predecessor received its final OS upgrade last month. The upgrade path to Android 10 for the Mi A2 has not proven straightforward though, with it being possible that Xiaomi has pulled the OS upgrade for the second time because of bugs.

Comet Lake-S European pricing list leaked up to the i5-10600, reveals entry-level Celeron base clocks

Looking at the estimated prices, it seems like Intel is going to be in trouble once again, as AMD's direct competitors appear to be better priced. Still, the inclusion of F-series chips could lead to some interesting duels. For now, it looks like the Core i5-10400F haxa-core could be a better performer for US$20 less compared to the all-star Ryzen 5 3600 from AMD.

DxOMark | Don't buy the OnePlus 7T Pro over the OnePlus 7 Pro if cameras are your priority

DxOMark has now put the OnePlus 7T Pro through its camera test. The phone recorded the exact same overall score as the older OnePlus 7 Pro. That makes sense, of course, seeing as both phones feature essentially the same SoC and identical camera hardware. If cameras are your major concern, there's no point buying the OnePlus 7T Pro over the OnePlus 7 Pro.

The K70 MK.2 Rapidfire ticks all the required boxes for an easy recommend, but at US$170 it is not cheap and does require some time to get used to.

HP Spectre 13 with 4K OLED, Core i7-1065G7 CPU, 16 GB RAM, and 512 GB SSD is now the cheapest it's ever been at $1168 USD

Do you really need a 100 percent AdobeRGB 4K UHD AMOLED touchscreen on a 13.3-inch laptop? Probably not, but for this low of a price, you may as well consider it anyway. It's rare for an OLED laptop like this to retail for about the same price as an IPS counterpart.

Hyped by Xiaomi as one of the first devices that would receive Android 10, the Android One device is still languishing on Android 9.0 Pie. The end may now be in sight for the Mi A3 though, as Xiaomi has given another vague release date for it to receive Google's latest OS.
