After hearing several rumours, Samsung's first 5nm chipset Exynos 1080 has finally debuted in China today. Not only that, it looks like the rumour saying that the vivo X60 will become the first device to have it might also come true, as the company has announced vivo as the strategic partner for the chipset. Now, let's come find out how powerful is the new Exynos 1080!

A report by BusinessKorea states that Samsung will be supplying chipsets to smartphone manufacturing companies such as Xiaomi, vivo, as well as OPPO. With that all being said, we can expect the chipsets to be available on lower-end smartphones while Qualcomm’s chipsets will be used for mid-range and higher-end smartphones.

Recently, the International Data Corporation (IDC) has released a report of the top five brands in smartphone shipments during the third quarter of 2020. According to the reports, Samsung is still at the top position, followed by Huawei.

vivo has officially revealed that the brand will make a switch from Funtouch OS to a new custom operating system (OS) named Origin OS. The news came from a post that appeared on vivo's official WeChat account to announce the vivo Developer Conference 2020.

vivo has officially unveiled the Colour Earphone, which is available in 4 different colours including Black, Blue, White, as well as Red at the price of RM49. The earphones can be purchased from all vivo Malaysia concept stores located all around Malaysia, as well as E-store, so be sure to check those places out if you’re interested in purchasing the aforementioned earphones.

As most people know, almost everything is made in China but that could change in the future. Just recently, 16 companies have gotten formal approvals by the Indian Government to start local manufacture of consumer electronics. Among the 16 companies, both Apple and Samsung are included and this initiative is part of the $6.65 billion production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme to increase exports over the 5 years.
