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.

Motorola teases new smartphone for India, will focus on performance and camera

Motorola is coming up with a new smartphone in the upcoming weeks. The company has taken to Twitter to share a teaser video hinting at the phone. There’s no launch date announced yet but Motorola confirms it will be available via Flipkart. The teaser video stresses highly on performance and camera, along with few of its design elements. Based on rumours, it could be the Motorola G9 Plus that leaked yesterday.

Motorola is yet to reveal the name of the device but it has teased a few aspects of the phone. There is a fingerprint sensor at the back with the Motorola logo imprinted. The phone appears to have the same button arrangement as the Motorola One Fusion+. Hence, there’s going to be a dedicated button for Google Assistant. A USB-C port is also present, thereby hinting at a midrange affordable smartphone.

WATCH: Asus ROG Phone 3 Review

While Motorola may hold the suspense, there are chances of this phone belonging to the Moto G9 lineup. Yesterday, Evan Blass came out with official renders of the Motorola G9 Plus. The G9 Plus in the renders showcased an upgraded design on the phone. With a rectangular new camera hump design, the G9 Plus will also get a 64-megapixel main camera. Additionally, the display will get a punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera.

Hence, Motorola may bring the G9 Plus to India as the successor to the Moto G8 Plus. If you recall, the G8 Plus was the midrange offering from Motorola with all the bells and whistles they could fit at a lower price. While the G8 Plus isn’t on sale anymore, Motorola is currently focusing on the One Fusion+ launched in earlier this year. The One Fusion+ costs Rs 17,499 and comes with a Snapdragon 730G chipset.

Motorola G9 Plus speculations

With the G9 Plus, Motorola is going for an upmarket design with a rectangular camera hump. We already know that there’s a 64-megapixel main camera on the G9 Plus. The display has a punch-hole cutout for housing the selfie camera. As usual, Motorola could ship it with a version of stock Android with no pre-loaded apps and bloatware.

Speculations for the G9 Plus include a 5000mAh battery along with 15W fast charging system. Rumours also suggest the G9 Plus may come with a Snapdragon 600 series chipset similar to G8 Plus. Since the G8 Plus used the Snapdragon 665, Motorola could rely on a Snapdragon 670 for the G9 Plus.
