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.

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 series to get 25W fast chargers

Samsung is all set to launch the new Galaxy Note 20 series in less than a few weeks. This year’s event is expected to feature five new products. And now reports say the brand is going to bundle 25W chargers with its flagship series. The new update comes via reliable tipster Roland Quandt, who tweeted the details earlier this week.

This is a trick from Apple’s playback, which has continued to bundle slow charger with its iPhones. And if people are really keen on fast charging their device, they were expected to spend the extra quid or two to upgrade. Most Android phones these days offer a minimum of 18W chargers in the box these days. In fact, some brands like Oppo or Realme have already come up with charging solutions at 65W or even 120W.

And for Samsung to pair its latest, high-end product with a mere 25W charger doesn’t look good on the brand. Especially, when buyers are going to spend over $1000 (Rs 75,000 approx) to get their hands on the new Notes. Could this be a deal-breaker for many of you there? We’ll know in a couple of weeks’ time.
