This new Xiaomi phone could be the cheapest 64MP camera phone so far

Redmi Note 9 Pro Max
Xiaomi phones are often among the most affordable handsets on the market that are still worth using, especially Redmi devices, as that's the company’s dedicated budget brand, and there are now two new smartphones boasting the Redmi name.
These handsets are the Redmi Note 9 Pro and Note 9 Pro Max, the first two handsets in Redmi’s Note 9 range (judging by the names, and precedent, there will be more).
The phones were both just launched at an online event hosted by Redmi India, and it was a launch specific to the country, but we’d expect the phones to be available in many more regions before too long.
    The new phones both have 6.67-inch FHD+ displays, which is impressive for the (rough) price tags, although they are LCD, a display tech which sometimes underwhelms. These screens are broken up by punch-hole cut-out segments for the front-facing camera, a design first for Redmi.
    In terms of specs the phones are quite similar, as they both have a Snapdragon 720G chipset (which is okay for the price tag), a large 5,020mAh battery, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and three of the same rear cameras.
    The Redmi Note 9 Pro and Note 9 Pro Max both have four rear cameras in total. Both have 8MP ultra-wide, 5MP macro and 2MP depth-sensing snappers, but it’s the main camera that’s different. While the Note 9 Pro has a 48MP snapper, the Note 9 Pro Max boasts a 64MP sensor. That’s one of the most high-res you can get at this price tag.
    Speaking of price tags, these phones look set to be super affordable. There’s no global pricing yet, but based on the Indian pricing the phones are likely to be very cheap for what they offer.
    Roughly converted, the Redmi Note 9 Pro will be available for around $200 / £160 / AU$310, coming in at just above or just below that, depending on whether you opt for a 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage or 6GB/128GB combo.
    The Note 9 Pro Max is a little more, starting at that previous price for 6GB/64GB, and going up to around $255 / £200 / AU$400 for the priciest of its various options, which gets you 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
    We’ve asked Xiaomi if and when we can expect to see the Redmi Note 9 Pro devices outside India, and will keep you updated when we hear back.

    EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE PIXEL 4, THE MOST-LEAKED PHONE EVER

    Image
    Google’s  Pixel 3 might have been the  most-leaked phone in history . Long before its unveiling, we knew practically everything about it from unboxing videos, photo comparisons, even a full review of the device. Surely, for the Pixel 4, Google would clamp down on leaks to leave some surprises for its debut on  October 15th , right? Let’s just say, if that was the plan, it didn’t exactly work out. We’ve now seen the Pixel 4 XL from every angle and in three different colors. At least seven different sources have touched this phone, many of them confirming the same specs. We not only know which cameras it’ll have, but also what they may be capable of, including air gestures (go figure). That doesn’t even count information Google has already shared  on purpose. So if you want to know almost everything about the Pixel 4 nearly a month before it’s announced, buckle up. We’ve sifted through all of the rumors and information we can find to compile everything we know — and everything we

    Our favorite iOS apps for the iPhone and iPad in 2018

    Image
    As 2018 comes to a close, it’s time to look at some our favorite apps of the year. While not all of these are brand new, many of them popped up onto our radar for the first time in 2018, and are definitely worth the attention. Others are some of our favorites that are still best-in-class despite having been around for some time now. We aim to do things differently at TNW, and as such you’re not going to find the recommendations you’re probably used to seeing: Gmail, Skype, Dropbox, and the like. Instead, we want to focus on the best-of-the-best that you may not have heard of, and others that are just special enough to warrant a mention. As always, we’d encourage you to share some of your favorites in the comments below, or on Facebook. Enlight Pixaloop (Free Pixaloop  is one of my favorite apps on the market. Unlike typical image editors that allow you to remove red eye or apply a filter, Pixaloop allows you to create stunning photo animations with a few clicks on your
