Tech Wrap June 23: OPPO K13x, Oakley Meta HSTN glasses, Perplexity AI on X
OPPO K13x 5G with Dimensity 6300, 6000mAh battery launched at Rs 11,999 Chinese smartphone brand OPPO has launched the K13x 5G smartphone in India, starting at Rs 11,999. Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor, the phone features a 6.67-inch HD+ LCD display, a 6000mAh battery, and several AI-based tools to simplify tasks and enhance creative workflows. Meta has partnered with an American company Oakley, which is a subsidiary of Luxottica, to come up with a new range of smart glasses targeted at athletes or consumers who are looking for rugged smart glasses. As per Meta, the Oakley Meta Glasses offer significantly improved battery life compared to the Meta Ray-Bans, delivering up to eight hours of continuous use and an additional 48 hours via the charging case. Video recording capabilities have also been enhanced, with resolution increasing from 1080p to 3K for clearer, more detailed footage. Perplexity has introduced a new feature to its chatbot on X (formerly Twitter), which allows users to create short, AI-generated videos with sound. The feature works by simply tagging @AskPerplexity in a post and adding a short prompt. Users receive an eight-second video clip that includes creative visuals, background music and dialogue. The new feature has led to more user activity, with people trying out how creative the AI can be. Nothing has officially confirmed that its maiden over-ear headphones, the Nothing Headphone 1, will launch in India on July 1, in sync with the global release. The confirmation came via a post on X (formerly Twitter) by co-founder Akis Evangelidis, who stated, 'Headphone (1) will be launched in India at the same time as global.' WhatsApp is introducing a new feature that allows users to generate AI-powered custom wallpapers for their chats using Meta AI. As per WABetaInfo, the feature is part of the latest WhatsApp beta update for Android and will be available to more users in the coming weeks. Apple is reportedly preparing to open up a new local connectivity option for third-party apps with the release of iOS 26. According to iHelp BR, a Brazilian publication focused on Apple technologies, a new feature called Wi-Fi Aware will enable apps to discover and connect to nearby devices over Wi-Fi, even without an internet connection or shared Wi-Fi network. Chinese smartphone manufacturer Vivo has unveiled the Vivo X200 FE smartphone in Taiwan, with a global release expected soon. Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ chipset, the Vivo X200 FE features a 6.31-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone brings IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance and includes several artificial intelligence (AI)-backed imaging features through a triple camera set-up co-engineered with Zeiss. Apple is reportedly planning a major design overhaul for the iPhone, aiming to release a mostly glass model in time for the product's 20th anniversary in 2027. According to a report by MacRumors, citing Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple may start making gradual changes as early as next year, beginning with a smaller Dynamic Island on 2026 iPhone models. These changes would align with the company's broader visual shift, hinted at through the recently announced 'Liquid Glass' design language, which debuted with iOS 26 and other platform updates. A newly introduced Microsoft's Family Safety tool is causing Google Chrome to crash on Windows, leaving users frustrated for more than two weeks. As reported by The Verge, the issue began in early June and either prevents Chrome from opening or causes it to crash immediately after launching. Apple is reportedly exploring a potential acquisition of Perplexity AI, the US-based AI start-up. According to a recent Bloomberg report, Apple executives, including mergers and acquisitions head Adrian Perica, services chief Eddy Cue, and key decision-makers in AI, have held internal discussions about making a bid for the company. Overall, the Alcatel V3 Ultra is a smartphone that one should get if they are a fan of reading. If someone's an avid reader and they are looking for a smartphone in the budget segment that can also handle some multimedia experience, then this will be the right option for them. If someone's looking for a good battery life, then too Alcatel V3 Ultra can be a good option, however, only if they are willing to compromise on the colours of the display. Artificial intelligence will reshape the job market, but the transition is likely to be turbulent, according to LinkedIn Chief Executive Officer Ryan Roslansky. In an interview with Bloomberg, Roslansky warned that while AI will create long-term opportunities, it is first set to trigger 'a ton of disruption' and 'a ton of uncertainty' for workers across sectors.

Uttar Pradesh is now India's manufacturing backbone—And the numbers prove it
Uttar Pradesh, India's most populous state, has over the years emerged as a hub of the manufacturing sector, thanks to its well-equipped infrastructure and strong initiatives for attracting investments. From hitting an economic slump due to multiple factors, it has now become the preferred destination for enterprises across segments such as smartphone production, textiles, and auto components. This essentially makes it the backbone of the country's economy. Dial M for more! UP leads smartphone manufacturing bloc in India The state has set quite a high benchmark when it comes to mobile manufacturing. It accounts for 55% of the country's smartphone production and 50% of its mobile component manufacturing. This gives a clear edge over a state like Karnataka, which accounted for nearly 1% of India's smartphone production a few years ago Home to 14 fully functional Special Economic Zones (SEZ's) and three Electronics Manufacturing Clusters (EMCs), the state is now taking long strides in India's economic development. EMCs provide enterprises easy access to ready-to-use factories and warehouses, making it simpler for them to find a foothold in the state. Similarly, companies operating in SEZs enjoy benefits such as tax holidays and benefits, which makes it possible for them to navigate the cesspool of (unnecessary) bureaucracy. These initiatives have boosted investor confidence and prompted international players to bet big on the state. Vivo, for instance, has planned to invest over Rs 7,000 crore in Uttar Pradesh and set up a massive manufacturing plant in Greater Noida. Global players such as Oppo and Samsung too have invested in the state, creating a vibrant economic ecosystem. A leader in textiles Uttar Pradesh is also the nerve centre of India's textiles and apparel segment, accounting for nearly 13% of its fabric output. This puts it in fourth position and ahead of states such as Andhra Pradesh (~5%) and West Bengal (~6%). Textile enterprises based in UP enjoy various benefits under the UP Textile & Garmenting Policy (2022), which has further rejuvenated this segment. These include 100% electricity duty exemption for 10 years, 25% subsidy on capital machinery, and 100% stamp duty exemption. These initiatives have encouraged enterprises to make Uttar Pradesh their base. In 2024 alone, 123 new textile companies started functioning in Uttar Pradesh. This brought in a total investment of ₹2,492 crore. Some of these enterprises include GESL Spinners Pvt Ltd (Rs 227 crore) and M-S Interweaves Polytex Pvt Ltd (Rs 150 crore). Additionally, the state has 12 flourishing textile parks,which are a boon for MSMEs as they help them enjoy access to shared facilities like design centres and training facilities. These centres also have also created jobs. The PM MITRA Mega Textile Park, for instance, alone has created 100,000 employment opportunities so far. This gives textile enterprises an opportunity to be part of a vibrant ecosystem where opportunities and collaborations are around the corner. A force in auto components segment Uttar Pradesh's dominance over the manufacturing sector is not limited to the smartphone and textile segments alone. It also excels in manufacturing automotive and auto components. The EV Manufacturing & Mobility Policy 2022 aims to create over 1 million jobs through an investment of ₹30,000–50,000 crore. It also makes life easier for enterprises through incentives like 20-30% capital exemption, 100% waiver of road tax, and subsidies on charging stations. Not surprisingly, this has transformed UP into the home of major players in the auto components segment. Last year Automotive Manufacturers Pvt. Ltd. (AMPL)-- a company that has been part of landscape for 70 years, set up a new 3S facility in Varanasi. Similarly, Servotech Power Systems Ltd has invested around Rs 300 crore in establishing an EV Charger manufacturing plant. The government is also taking steps to further rejuvenate its already thriving infrastructure. Not too long ago, Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Authority (UPSIDA) allocated Rs 456 crore to strengthen civil and electrical infrastructure across 93 industrial areas. Additionally, the body also allotted 113 plots across various industrial zones. They attracted an investment of Rs 700 crore and are projected to create over 4000 jobs. Given this, UP is set to remain the go-to place for those hoping to flourish in the manufacturing sector.
