Redmi Note 6 Pro Indian Variant May Ship With Snapdragon 660

The Redmi Note 5 Pro might have been launched just a few months ago in India, but rumors about its successor have been gaining momentum of late. According to latest reports, the Indian edition of the Redmi Note 6 Pro may well ship with a Snapdragon 660 under the hood. That’s according to a Weibo post by a leakster who is known to have revealed details about unreleased Xiaomi devices in the past.

Weirdly enough, the post has since been deleted, but the reason for that isn’t immediately known. As can be seen from the screenshots grabbed by SmartPrix, before deletion, the post also apparently claimed that the device will come in two configurations – one with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, and another with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.

The Redmi Note 6 (and the Redmi Note 6 Pro) have been in the news fairly often over the past few weeks in spite of the fact that Xiaomi has been absolutely tight-lipped about it until now. The devices were recently spotted on Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), and while that revealed precious little about them apart from their model numbers, it confirmed that they are both well on their way towards becoming the finished product.

It will be interesting to see how Xiaomi positions the Redmi Note 6 Pro in India, given that the company already sells a ton of mid-range handsets at the price-point where it’s expected to be launched. From the Mi A2 with pure Android to the Poco F1 with a flagship-grade processor, the battle in the mid-range segment is now more fierce than ever, thanks in no small measure to the aggressive stance of Xiaomi.

Twitter Wants to Build an ‘Open and Decentralized’ Social Media Platform

In an attempt to create a Facebook competitor, which everyone flocks to, Twitter became increasingly centralized over the years. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey believes that’s the case and has now tweeted a lengthy plan to fund research to build an open and decentralized standard for social media platforms. It will “ultimately become a standard” that Twitter’s client will be based upon. Dubbed Bluesky, this project will see a team of up to five researchers , which could include open-source architects, engineers, and designers, being on-boarded in the near future. Currently, Bluesky has no team members but Dorsey tweeted that Twitter’s CTO Parag Agrawal has been tasked with finding a lead. The folks over at Firefox have already extended a helping hand, saying how the non-profit has contributed to decentralization. Enough jibber-jabber, but what exactly is Bluesky? And what does it intend to achieve? Dorsey, in his tweetstorm , states that the challenges being faced by centralized social

Mysterious Drones Spotted in Colorado and Nebraska; Sources Unknown

A group of drones was reportedly been spotted in the sky at night last week in Colorado and Nebraska that made the residents anxious and worried. The police officials in charge have no idea regarding where these drones are from. “They’ve been doing a grid search, a grid pattern. They fly one square and then they fly another square,” Colorado’s Phillips County Sheriff Thomas Elliot told the Denver Post. The drones have an approximate six-foot wingspan and stay 200 to 300 feet away from buildings. At least 17 drones have been spotted till now. They appear at around 7 PM at night and disappear at around 10 PM . Until now, the drones have not been caught doing any illegal or unofficial activities. “They do not seem to be malicious. They don’t seem to be doing anything that would indicate criminal activity,” Sheriff Elliott added. The Federal Aviation Agency, the Air Force, Drug Enforcement Administration, and US Army Forces Command confirmed that the drones did not belong to them.
