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. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

OnePlus Z hardware spotted in Geekbench listing

OnePlus is going to launch Z series very soon. This has been confirmed by its co-founder Pete Lau recently. And now, we have possibly come across the hardware details of the upcoming phone. OnePlus is going to launch the phone next month, and its details have been leaked via this Geekbench listing.

According to the tests, the phone comes packing with the Snapdragon 765G processor that supports 5G. The device was  expected to feature the MediaTek Dimensity 1000 or Snapdragon 765 SoC. But it looks like the company has gone for the latter.

The listing also says the OnePlus Z will get 12GB RAM, run on Android 10 version. It’s interesting that OnePlus actually plans on offering its mid-range phone large capacity RAM. One would expect the phone to come with 64GB, 128GB and 256GB storage options. The phone could also get a triple camera setup at the back.

The OnePlus Z is expected to feature a single punch-hole cutout placed in the center of the top edge of the screen. There are also narrow bezels on the sides but a slightly prominent chin. The volume rockers and power button of the phone all lie on the right side of the device. The top edge meanwhile, houses a minimal looking earpiece. We’ve also seen new leak in the form of render which reveals the front look of the OnePlus Z.

OnePlus making mid-range phones again

In an interview with Fast Company, OnePlus’ Founder and CEO Pete Lau confirmed the brand has plans to offer more affordable phones in India. Lau also asserted that the brand also wants to explore new product categories other than phones. This product will mark OnePlus comeback in the mid-range segment since the X series few year back.

Last year, OnePlus launched its first smart TV, and it already offers audio products like neckband earphones. Lau didn’t reveal any information on what all categories he was referring to. In the future, we could expect it to launch wearables too as this is the latest category that several brands are targeting in India.
