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.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra’s flip cover, S Pen leaked in images

Among the highlight features of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra smartphone will be the support for the S Pen stylus, an accessory that has been limited to Samsung Galaxy Note devices until now. German website Winfuture has put out pictures of the S Pen for the Galaxy S21 Ultra as well as a flip cover for the smartphone that will have a slot to hold the accessory.

According to the report, S Pen will be an optional accessory for the Galaxy S21 Ultra and the smartphone itself will not have a slot to hold the stylus like Galaxy Note series phones. The S Pen can be bought separately for just under 40 euros.

In terms of design, the S Pen looks similar to the stylus that ships with the Galaxy Tab S7 tablet. As for functionality, it will offer a host of features like a pressure-sensitive tip, gesture support, integrated and accelerometer.

The flip cover that Samsung plans to bundle with the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G as part of offers will have a slot to hold the S Pen. So those opting to buy S Pen with the Galaxy S21 Ultra will most likely need to purchase the cover as well, given the smartphone itself does not have an S Pen holder.

This is the first time that Samsung is bringing the S Pen to its other premium smartphones as the stylus has remained exclusive to the Galaxy Note series smartphones so far. A recent listing on the US certification site FCC (Federal Communications Commission) confirmed S Pen support for Galaxy S21 Ultra.

Samsung itself has confirmed that certain features of the Galaxy Note lineup will be available for other Samsung devices as well. Samsung’s president of mobile TM Roh said in a blog post that some of the well-loved features of Galaxy Note will be added to other devices in the company’s lineup.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra along with the Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S21+ will launch on January 14. The Galaxy S21 Ultra will be the most premium of the three devices and will come with features such as a curved display, S Pen support, and five rear cameras.
