AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub.

Mobvoi launches TicPods ANC true wireless headphones for $89

Mobvoi, known for its products in the wearable device market, has now announced its new true wireless headphones, TicPods ANC. Earlier this year, the company launched the TicPods 2, a pair of truly wireless earbuds that focused on a smaller form factor. They were alright, but nothing especially impressive.

Now the company is back with another set of truly wireless earbuds, this time featuring active noise cancellation. TicPods ANC uses the same active noise reduction technology as other products such as Apple AirPods Pro, Sony WF-1000XM3, and others. The ANC tech helps isolate the music and blocks out the background noise around you.

Mobvoi also advertises three different ANC modes. A quiet mode, a sound pass-through mode that can then pass through ambient noise, and ANC Off. You can switch between the modes directly via the TicPods ANC. The TicPods ANC has a very similar design to Apple’s standard AirPods.

TicPods ANC Specifications

In terms of specifications, the TicPods ANC headphone comes equipped with 13mm emitters and Bluetooth 5.0 connection. It also has an IP5X certification for dust and water resistance up to a specific limit. Like previous TicPods headphones, it also features touch-sensitive controls for volume, skipping songs, and accessing Google Assistant.

The headphones feature a battery capacity of 50mAh, which should be enough for 4.5 hours of playback time with ambient noise cancellation turned on. If this feature is turned off, they should offer 5 hours of playback. The charging case has a battery capacity of 400mAh, which should be enough to charge the headphones for two full cycles.

Moreover, the case provides 21 hours of battery life and charges over USB-C port, although it lacks Qi wireless charging. Mobvoi is currently selling the TicPods ANC through its official website for $89. But, as part of the official launch promotion, interested buyers can get it with a 10% discount for $80.99 until June 10.
