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.

Realme working on its first smartphone with an under-display camera: Report

Realme is currently working on its first smartphone with an under-display camera according to a report by The Mobile Hunt. This will make Realme one of the few smartphone manufacturers to have an under-display camera offering like Samsung, ZTE and more.

The report consists of a few wireframe diagrams pulled from a recent patent filing. In the diagrams, the device does not consist of any spots to integrate a selfie camera.

To recall, back in September, Realme VP Xu Qi Chase posted an image of a smartphone on Weibo with no notch or punch hole, leading to speculation of the return of the pop-up selfie camera. However, Chase clarified in the post’s comments that the device doesn’t come with a pop-up mechanism either, hinting at under-display camera tech.

The wireframe diagrams showcase a rectangular camera module on the back consisting of three camera sensors along with an LED flash module. The right edge consists of a power button, whereas, the left edge sports the volume rockers. The bottom edge has cutouts for a USB Type-C port and a sim tray. The device does not seem to sport a cutout for the 3.5mm headphone jack.

While the patent filing does not guarantee that the design showcased will materialise as a physical device, it is indicative that Realme is working towards the same.

Apart from Realme, a number of other Chinese smartphone manufacturers are working on the under-display selfie camera technology including brands like Honor, Oppo and Vivo.

In other news, Realme is currently reportedly working on a ‘proper’ flagship smartphone, which could be priced at around Yuan 5,000 (approximately Rs 58,000). Realme China President Xu Qi at the China Mobile Global Partner Conference 2021 (via ITHome) said that the smartphone will launch next year. As of now, it is unclear if the upcoming flagship device will launch under the company’s existing GT series or a new series.
