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 5G has as good cameras as Pixel 4a, says DxOMark

Is the Mi 11 Lite a clever choice at Rs 21,999 in India? That’s a debate for another day. However, DxOMark recently tested out the cameras of the Mi 11 Lite 5G and awarded it some great points. How great, you wonder? The overall score of awarded to the Mi 11 Lite 5G is 111, which is almost the same as the Google Pixel 4a, Oppo Reno 5 Pro+ and Samsung Galaxy Note 20 (Snapdragon).

That shouldn’t come as a surprise, given that Mi 11 Lite 5G commands a premium as much as Google Pixel 4a. In fact, the Mi 11 Lite 5G uses a superior Snapdragon 780G chipset that supports 5G connectivity. This ISP along with the 64-megapixel main camera impressed the critics with its exposure performance, good skin tones, and well-controlled noise.

Not only the still photo performance, the Mi 11 Lite 5G also does a good job with the video performance. The critics say that the phone can record high details, get accurate exposures, and effective stabilization.

That said, the phone has its fair share of drawbacks too. The critics say that there are exposure instabilities, white balance casts outdoors, frequent autofocus failures, loss of fine details, exposure instabilities and HDR fusion artifacts in ultra-wide shots, low zoom detail, underexposure in night portraits with flash-auto mode, etc.

While the overall outcome is good enough for mobile photographers on a budget, do note that this may not hold true for the 4G variant that sells in India. The Mi 11 Lite 4G has proven its worth in daylight performance similar to the 5G variant but loses its composure in low light situations.

The 5-megapixel macro camera with autofocus function proved itself to be the best in its class. The rest of the phone also holds well as a midrange smartphone. The 90Hz 10-bit AMOLED display is among the best in its class while the Snapdragon 732G chip holds its worth as long as daily performance is concerned. The main draw is, however, the lower 157 grams weight that’s paired with an overall slim form factor.

For those seeking more megapixels, the Redmi Note 10 Pro Max at a slightly lower price offers a larger 108-megapixel Samsung HM2 sensor. We reviewed the Max and were left impressed with its low-light performance owing to its 9-in-1 pixel binning technology.
