Teasers confirm 5.5 inch Xiaomi Red Rice Note phone to be unveiled Sunday
The TENNA certification indicates that the new Xiaomi Redmi model will be called the Redmi Note and feature a 5.5 inch screen with 720 x 1280 resolution. The certification leads us to expect two models. One will have an octa-core 1.4GHz processor, and the other features an octa-core 1.7GHz CPU. Both variants could end up sporting the MT6592 true octa-core chip from MediaTek.
Xiaomi shook up the Chinese market last year by offering the Hongmi (aka Red Rice) for a price of $130 USD. For that price, buyers received a device offering a 4.7 inch glass with a MediaTek quad-core CPU driving the phone, and 1GB of RAM inside. As you might expect, at that price, the phone became quite popular. Last month, an international version called the Xiaomi Redmi was introduced in Singapore, where it got off to a great start.
If the teasers released by Xiaomi are on track, by this time tomorrow we should have more information about the Xiaomi Redmi Note

Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 unveiled early
Tags: Samsung, Android, CES 2014
A bit before the event itself, the Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 went live on the SamsungMobilePress website. The Android 4.4 KitKat powered tablet is very close to the Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) in terms of specs, though obviously it lacks the S Pen stylus.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 features a 10.1 Super Clear LCD with WQXGA resolution (2,560 x 1,600 pixels) and is powered by either an Exynos 5 Octa or a Snapdragon 800. The tablet will run Android 4.4 KitKat at launch, which is the latest version available and newer than what the Note 10.1 currently has. The RAM is "only" 2GB instead of 3GB as on the Note, however.

Anyway, tablet uses the same camera setup � 2MP front facing camera and an 8MP camera on the back. The S800 model can record 1080p @ 60fps videos with the back camera, while the Exynos tops out at 30fps.
Another limitation of the Exynos model is that it is Wi-Fi + 3G only, while the Snapdragon model has LTE connectivity too. Both feature Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac with channel bonding, Bluetooth 4.0 and USB 2.0.
Both tablets also feature GPS + GLONASS, an IR blaster and 16GB or 32GB built-in storage, expandable with microSD cards.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1 features an 8,220mAh battery (same capacity as the Note 10.1) and measures 243.1 X 171.4 X 7.3mm. The LTE version weighs 477g, while the other is a bit lighter at 469g.
The page has been pulled since (here's a screenshot we took before it was taken down). We expect it will go back up once the tablet is officially announced. By the way, according to rumors we're waiting for Note Pro tablets too.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Crystal Edition unveiled in Thailand
Tags: Apple, iPhone
Samsung likes to slap on some bling on a Galaxy phone now and then and the Galaxy S4 is no exception. It's a limited run of 3,500 units so far only available on the Samsung Thailand site.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 Crystal Edition is based on the white I9500 (that's the Exynos 5-powered one) and features a unique back with studded Swarovski crystals.
It will set you back 20,300 baht ($630/�460) and you can only get it from the Samsung Shop. For comparison, a standard I9500 S4 costs around 17,400 baht ($540) in Thailand.
Thanks for the tip, Todty!
