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.

Google Pixel Watch renders leaked online, tipped to launch in October 2021

Renders of the Google Pixel Watch have leaked online and they show a premium watch design that is well and truly capable of taking on the likes of the Apple Watch and the Samsung Watch series. The Pixel Watch renders also show multiple colour strap options and watch faces. The watch does not seem to sport any buttons rather just comes with a crown on the right side of the dial. The upcoming Pixel Watch has been tipped to launch alongside the Google Pixel 6 in October.

What could the Pixel Watch offer

As per the renders that have been leaked online, the Pixel Watch has been codenamed “Rohan”. Certain design elements of the watch seem to have been inspired by existing premium smartwatches in the market like the Samsung Watch 3. It sports a round bezel-less display which presumably will be protected by Gorilla Glass or some form of strengthened glass.

Since there are multiple straps that can be seen in the renders, Google might allow users to buy the straps separately in order to switch them as per the users’ preferences. YouTuber Jon Prosser who has been closely following all the developments around the Pixel Watch said that Google will offer up to 20 band options. In one of his recent videos, Prosser said that the renders are based on the marketing material he had gained access to from a source within Google.

Expected specifications?

We don’t have a lot on the Google Pixel Watch at the moment though it is safe to assume that Google will bundle this smartwatch with its own WearOS like many other smartwatches running on the Android-based operating system.
Since Google already took over fitness watch manufacturing company FitBit, it is possible that the Pixel Watch will come loaded with some fitness-centric features and sensors namely a SpO2 tracker and other advanced health-tracking sensors.
