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.

Poco X3 Pro arriving in India soon: See what all features it will bring to the table

Poco, a few months ago, launched the Poco X3 in India as one of its budget smartphones. Now, the smartphone is soon to get an elder sibling, allegedly called the Poco X3 Pro.

The device has received a number of certifications and has been leaked several times in the past, giving us an inkling that it will launch soon. The latest information suggests that the phone will also launch in India, that too, quite soon. Here’s a look at what all we know about the upcoming Poco smartphone.

Poco X3 Pro India launch soon

The Poco X3 Pro has recently received BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification, as reported by MySmartPrice. The smartphone appeared on the Indian certification site with the model number ‘M2102J20SI.’ This suggests that it will make it to India pretty soon. However, the BIS listing doesn’t give out much information on the Poco X3 Pro.

In addition to this, the smartphone has also been spotted on the SIRIM (Standard and Industrial Research Institute of Malaysia) certification website in Malaysia. The listing reveals that the device is expected to support dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LTE, NFC, and MIUI 12.

To recall, the Poco X3 Pro had previously received FCC,  IMDA, EEC, and TUV certifications in past, simply telling us that the phone will make a definite entry.

Poco X3 Pro Expected Features, Specs, Price

We lack concrete information on the Poco X3 Pro. However, we do have some rumors that give us some clues on what the device could offer. As per a recent report by XDA Developers, the smartphone is likely to get two codenames, ‘Vayu’ and ‘Bhima,’ throwing light on two of its variants.

The smartphone is likely to be powered by an ‘sm8150’ chip, hinting at a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 or the 855 Plus processor, which is surprising as the processor is quite old.

The proposition might lure people since it’s a high-end processor but we are not sure how good an idea it is to incorporate a two-year-old chipset in a phone today. Since there will be support for LTE, there are chances there won’t be support for 5G.

Other possible specs include a 48-megapixel quad rear camera setup, a big battery like the Poco X3, the inclusion of a 120Hz higher refresh rate, and support for fast charging. As for the price, there are chances the Poco X3 Pro could fall under Rs 30,000 and compete with the likes of the recent Realme X7 Pro and the Xiaomi Mi 10i.
