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. The new 500,000-square-foot (55,5...

Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite could launch with Mi 11 flagship in global markets

The Xiaomi Mi 11 is currently one of the most desirable smartphones on the planet right now and Xiaomi will eventually launch it in global markets in the months to come. Costing almost the same as the Mi 10 from last year, it could very well be a bargain in the 2021 flagship space. However, Xiaomi is planning a Mi 11 Lite too, and based on some recent rumors, it seems this cheaper midrange option will debut globally along with the Mi 11.

A recent report from Gizmochina claims that Xiaomi could eventually launch the Mi 11 Lite alongside the Mi 11 flagship smartphone. There’s still no idea on the launch timeframe of either of these devices, which is why we are taking this with a pinch of salt. There’s no lead on the specifications too but there are assumptions that point at the Mi 11 Lite based on the Poco X3, which is an affordable 4G handset selling in India and Europe.

Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite could launch soon

There’s no lead on the Mi 11 Lite apart from a bunch of speculations from YouTube’s tech fraternity. Current rumors point at the Mi 11 Lite using the Snapdragon 732G chipset, a 120Hz display, and a 64-megapixel main rear camera. An FCC listing earlier confirmed the Mi 11 Lite name, along with a 4150mAh battery, a 33W fast-charging system, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.1, and MIUI 12 onboard. There are supposed to be two variants with 6GB RAM as standard but differing in specifications.

However, Xiaomi recently launched the Mi 10i in India as a more affordable iteration of the Mi 10T Pro at tempting prices. The Mi 10i with its Snapdragon 750G chipset is currently the most affordable 5G smartphone in Xiaomi’s lineup. Hence, for the Mi 11 Lite, it seems unlikely to see Xiaomi going back to a 4G chipset, given that it could eventually find its way to India and other global markets with budding 5G networks.

The Mi 11 series is also said to get a Pro variant around the Chinese New Year in February. While there’s no official information on the same, rumors have hinted at Xiaomi offering an upgraded camera system and faster charging system over the vanilla Mi 11. Xiaomi could eventually use a new 108-megapixel sensor for the main camera along with a periscopic zoom camera system. We could also see Xiaomi debut its 100W fast wired charging system and an even faster wireless charging system on the Pro.
