Update(May 30): The Samsung Galaxy M01 and M11 will be launching in India on June 2, the teaser is now live on Flipkart. 

Update(May 27): Added price

Samsung is getting ready to announce two more M series devices in India soon. Last week, we reported that the company is gearing up to announce the Galaxy M31s and M51s in India. Now, we’ve got new information about Samsung Galaxy M01 and Galaxy M11.

Samsung has already announced the Galaxy M21 and  M31 in the M series. Now it looks like Samsung is looking to fill the void with the numeric lineup with the launch of Galaxy M01 and M11 smartphones. 

According to a report from 91mobiles, the Samsung Galaxy M01 and M11 will be launched in India in the first week of June, i.e. next week. The Galaxy M01 was announced a couple of months back in UAE and the Galaxy M11 is the new device the company is set to launch in India. Here’s everything we know about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy M-series devices. 

Samsung Galaxy M01 Specs (expected)

The Samsung Galaxy M01 will sport a 5.71-inch HD+ TFT LCD display with a resolution of 1,560 x 720 pixels and an aspect ratio of 19:9. It is said to be powered by the marginally outdated Snapdragon 439 SoC paired with 3GB RAM and 32GB onboard storage. As per the report, the device will feature a dual rear camera with a 13MP primary shooter tagged along with a 2MP depth sensor. Over to the front, a 5MP selfie camera will be present. 

Furthermore, the device is expected to pack in a 4,000mAh battery with a 5W charger. It is also reported to miss the physical fingerprint scanner and will come with a fingerprint scanner.

Samsung Galaxy M11 Specs (expected)

It is expected to feature a slightly bigger 6.4-inch HD+ TFT LCD display. The display will sport a resolution of 1,560 x 720 pixels, 19.5:9 aspect ratio. The device will come with a punch-hole cutout at the top-left corner that houses an 8MP front-facing camera, as per the report. Under the hood, the device is said to feature Snapdragon 450 SoC and will likely come with 3/4GB RAM and 32/64GB internal storage. 

The Samsung Galaxy M11 is further said to feature a triple rear camera with a 13MP primary sensor followed by a 5MP ultra-wide lens and a 2MP depth sensor. To power the device, the handset will feature a 5,000mAh battery with 15W charger. Other expected features include a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, Dolby Audio, and OneUI based Android 10 OS. 

There is no information on the pricing of the devices yet. The device is expected to launch in India next week and soon after we can expect the Galaxy M31s and M51 launch in India.  

Pricing

Ishan Agarwal has shared the offline prices for both models on Twitter. The Galaxy M01 3+32GB variant is said to carry a price tag of Rs 8,999 and the Galaxy M11 3+32GB is expected to be priced at Rs 10,999 and the  4+64GB is expected at Rs 12,999.

The rumors were true: a McLaren official has confirmed that there won’t be another OnePlus McLaren edition. 

The luxury automaker recently dropped the OnePlus logo from its Partners page, leading to speculation that the refined and pricey OnePlus McLaren editions had been cancelled. The car company finally confirmed that there wouldn’t be another partner-produced version of a OnePlus phone in a statement sent to Android Authority:

“Our partnership with OnePlus, which came to its scheduled conclusion recently, has been a highly successful collaboration between two iconic and innovative brands,” McLaren’s statement read. “Since the start of this partnership in 2018, OnePlus has been a supportive, valued partner and we wish them well and hope to see them in the future.”

We’d seen exactly two of the fancy editions starting with the OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition in 2018 and followed with the OnePlus 7T McLaren Edition. 

At CES 2020, the phonemaker showed off the OnePlus Concept One that featured McLaren window tech to hide its rear cameras, but that wasn’t a consumer-ready device. Since we hadn’t heard whether a new McLaren Edition would accompany the next OnePlus 8T generation, we weren’t sure if we’d see another again. That question seems to have been answered.

• OnePlus Concept One: the last team-up between OnePlus and McLaren
• OnePlus 8 Pro: the latest and greatest OnePlus phone
• Best phones: the top smartphones on the market today

The best time to cancel a fancy OnePlus McLaren edition?

Of course, we’re not in the best market for costlier versions of flagship phones anyway, and each generation of the once-affordable OnePlus handsets have been pricier than the last.  

Thus, it was probably time for the OnePlus McLaren editions to reach the end of the road anyway and stop trying to compete with the likes of the Huawei Mate 30 Porsche edition and the Oppo Find X Lamborghini. But given the seemingly amicable splitting of ways between OnePlus and McLaren, perhaps a partnership sometime in the future is possible – when the market’s ready for another luxury carmaker’s take on a smartphone.

Sandia National Laboratories has announced it will be the first Department of Energy labs in the US to deploy the Fujitsu A64FX, the only ARM-based processor designed from ground up for HPC projects and supercomputers.

Fujitsu is known primarily for its business laptops, tablets and desktops, but is a behemoth in its own right when it comes to processors, having been in the business for well over half a century.

Launched in 2019, the CPU has 48 cores, a theoretical peak performance of 3.38 TFLOPS, runs at 2.2GHz and has 32GB HBM2 memory on the die itself.

• We've built a list of the best Windows server hosting services available

What makes it ideal for the HPC market is that it provides far higher bandwidth performance between memory and the CPU - up to 1TBps. Moving data to and from the CPU is the biggest obstacle by far to what researchers refer to as exascale computing.

What makes the A64FX even more exciting is that Fujitsu wants the technology to trickle down to hyperscalers and major cloud computing giants so that the masses can benefit too.

Given it is based on ARM architecture, it can (and has) run Linux distributions out of the box and even Microsoft Windows.

It is considered a general purpose CPU, but surpasses even GPUs from Nvidia and AMD on the all-important metric of performance per watt. Indeed, a 768-CPU prototype sits on top of the Green500 list - the leaderboard for supercomputers that deliver the most power per watt.

The A64FX was designed expressly to power the successor of Japan’s main supercomputer, the K, which was decommissioned back in August 2019. 

Its replacement - the Fugaku - is expected to be 100 times faster when it launches later this year, will run on a Linux distribution called McKernel and will reach a staggering 400 petaflops. The aim is for it to be the first supercomputer to hit one exaflop when fully deployed with half a million processors buzzing.
