The Doogee U11 — already a surprisingly capable budget tablet — just got a whole lot more interesting. With the official rollout of Android 16 , Doogee has pushed this entry-level device into a new class, thanks to a mix of practical features and forward-looking software upgrades.It now comes with Gemini on board, making it one of the few Android tablets to currently even run Google's new assistant. But it also comes with smart features of Doogee's making to improve your gaming, work, or studying sessions with the Doogee U11.The U11 now comes preloaded with Gemini, Google's latest AI assistant, replacing Google Assistant as the go-to smart helper on the device. And yes — it actually works, even on a modest chipset.Whether you're asking Gemini to summarize a webpage, generate a quick itinerary, or help write an email, the assistant integrates tightly with's multitasking and voice command layers. That instantly lifts the U11's productivity prowess.Doogee has wisely kept things simple here: Gemini is available as a side-panel overlay and can be called up with a swipe or voice command. No extra apps to install. No weird workarounds.With the new update, the Doogee U11 gets Game Space: a launcher, which limits background tasks and can even block distracting notifications. It puts all the hardware eggs in one basket for your gaming session. Game Space features include:Paired with its bright, 90 Hz 11-inch screen and stereo speakers, the tablet has the chops to deliver on casual gaming or multimedia experiences.The Doogee U11 is a multimedia machine that delivers value with its large 11' screen and dual speakers. It has a modern all-screen design with an 83.2% screen-to-body ratio — a bezel thin enough to be out of the way, but thick enough to allow for a comfortable grip. The 90 Hz refresh rate delivers smoother animations than the 60 Hz of yesteryear.Popular software layers on top of Android have a pretty useful feature that's lesser-hyped but genuinely useful — app cloning. The U11 takes full advantage of it. Want two separate WhatsApp accounts on one tablet? You can. Instagram, Telegram, or even productivity apps like Slack or Zoom? Go ahead—each clone runs in its own sandbox.Their icons will also be clearly marked so you know which account you are opening up. This works wonders to separate work and play. It also helps out when multiple members of the family use one tablet!

vivo G3 is official with 6,000 mAh battery
vivo has made the G3 official today as the successor to the G2 from January 2024. The phone comes with a 6.74-inch 720x1600 LCD screen with 90 Hz refresh rate, a 13 MP rear camera, a 5 MP selfie camera, and a 6,000 mAh battery with support for 44W wired charging. It's powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 SoC, paired with 6/8GB of RAM and 128/256GB of storage. It measures 167.3 x 76.95 x 8.19 mm and weighs 204g. It has a side-mounted capacitive fingerprint scanner embedded into the power button. It's offered in China in black only for CNY 1,499 (approximately $208) with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage and CNY 1,999 ($278) with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It's unclear if it will ever be sold elsewhere.

China introduces its first domestically made e-beam lithography machine
We've often said that the inability of Chinese foundries and tech manufacturers to obtain Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines is the big reason why China is so far behind in the chips race. Thanks to U.S. and Dutch officials, the one company that makes advanced lithography gear, Dutch firm ASML, cannot ship the latest EUV lithography equipment to China. However, less advanced Deep Ultraviolet (DUV) lithography machines, using older technology, can still be shipped to China. This is important because EUV machines are needed to manufacture chips under 7nm. Foundries like TSMC and Samsung Foundry will be mass producing chips using their 2nm process nodes this year. Lower process node numbers mean that the transistors used are smaller, allowing more to fit into a small space inside a chip. This number is called the Transistor Density and is usually shown as millions or billions of transistors per square millimeter. The higher the transistor density, the more powerful and energy-efficient a chip is. The lithography machine is used to transfer circuitry patterns onto the silicon wafers that serve as the foundation of the chips manufactured by foundries. Deep Ultraviolet (DUV) light has a wavelength of 193 nanometers. EUV, however, uses light with a wavelength of just 13.5 nanometers, which is about 14 times shorter. This shorter wavelength allows EUVs to etch the fine patterns needed for today's intricate chip designs. -Hangzhou Daily But the Chinese have built their first e-beam lithography machine, which they have titled Xizhi. It was created at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou and uses focused electron beams to etch the circuitry patterns on the silicon wafers. The downside is that e-beam lithography cannot produce chips at a large scale like DUV and EUV machines can. But for China, it's any port in a storm when it comes to lithography, and the e-beam lithography works great during the testing phase of production. An ASML built Extreme Ultraviolet lithography machine. | Image credit-ASML A local newspaper, Hangzhou Daily , said on Thursday, "Due to export controls, such equipment has long been out of reach for leading domestic research institutions, including the University of Science and Technology of China and Zhejiang Lab. The delivery of Xizhi is expected to help break this impasse." Xizhi can etch circuit lines as narrow as 8 nm, with a positioning accuracy of 0.6nm. This meets international standards. Discussions with Chinese companies and research institutes interested in Xizhi have begun. The domestically produced e-beam lithography machine is cheaper than similar devices imported into China. This is just the beginning of China's attempt to bypass U.S. restrictions by producing its own chipmaking equipment. There are reports that Huawei has been working on building its own EUV machine. Reportedly, Huawei has been testing a trial EUV machine at its factory in Dongguan. Supposedly, Huawei will aim for trial production later this year with mass production expected to take place in 2026. Should Huawei be able to create an EUV machine, it would be a big deal for China in general and Huawei in particular. It could allow Huawei and China's largest foundry, SMIC, to produce cutting-edge chips that might be able to compete with the silicon designed by U.S. chip design heavyweights like Apple, Qualcomm, and Nvidia. Before the U.S. implemented the sanctions preventing Huawei from obtaining cutting-edge chips, the Chinese manufacturer's HiSillicon chip design unit was TSMC's second-largest customer after Apple. At that time, HiSilicon and thus Huawei had access to TSMC's most cutting-edge process nodes. In fact, the last chip TSMC produced for HiSilicon before U.S. sanctions kicked in was the Kirin 9000 AP. Built using TSMC's 5nm process node, this was the SoC used to power the Huawei Mate 40 series in 2020. After the sanctions went into effect, Qualcomm was given a license from the U.S. Commerce Department allowing it to ship 4G Snapdragon chips to Huawei. In 2023, Huawei stunned the industry by releasing the Mate 60 series powered by the Kirin 9000S. Produced by SMIC, the SoC was built using the foundry's 7nm process node and brought 5G support back to Huawei's flagship phones.

vivo T4 Pro teaser campaign starts with a telephoto camera revelation
Vlad, 15 August 2025 vivo is getting ready to launch the T4 Pro in India. While the company isn't yet ready to reveal when the phone will make its debut, it has already started teasing it through Flipkart, which of course tells us where it will be sold. The T4 Pro will have a "flagship level" periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, as well as many AI features. The design of the camera island seems to resemble the V60 and X200 FE, thus clearly positioning the T4 Pro as a recent addition to the roster. vivo T4 Pro teaser images According to a recent rumor, the T4 Pro uses Sony's IMX882 sensor for its periscope telephoto camera, just like the aforementioned V60 and X200 FE, so the resemblance between the three is more than just skin-deep. The T4 Pro is allegedly 7.53mm thin, and has a quad-curved screen. It will apparently be available in Blaze Gold and Nitro Blue. It's powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 SoC, and will feature a big battery despite its slim profile. Via
