Samsung’s latest 50MP GN2 camera sensor will debut with Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra next week
Last month, Samsung introduced its second-generation 50MP ISOCELL GN2 image sensor with large 1.4-micrometer (μm)-sized pixels. This new camera sensor offers up to 100-megapixel imaging, powerful staggered HDR, improved auto-focusing through Dual Pixel Pro technology, and vivid results through Smart ISO Pro.
According to the latest information, Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra will become the world’s first smartphone equipped with Samsung ISOCELL GN2 CMOS, with a 1/1.12″ inch ultra-outsole. Moreover, the Chinese phone maker said that each pixel of 50MP reaches 1.4μm, which is an unprecedented 2.8μm after fusion.
However, Xiaomi will hold its next launch conference on March 29 where it will unveil its new Mi 11 series flagships including the Mi 11 Pro and Mi 11 Ultra. Ahead of the event, the company officially explained the imaging system of the Mi 11 Ultra with “revisiting the boundary of the dark night” which suggests, it should have an impressive night imaging effect.
In terms of camera capabilities, Mi 11 Ultra equips a triple rear camera setup including a combination of dual main cameras + periscope lens. Just for remind, it will be the first handset to debut with the world’s largest Samsung ISOCELL GN2 image sensor and support up to 120x zoom shooting.

Samsung could debut its first all-solid-state battery smartwatch in 2026. The company has recently announced the completion of small-sized all-solid-state battery development. It is expected to debut with a Galaxy Watch in 2026.
On September 22, Samsung Electro-Mechanics announced that it had successfully developed the world’s first small-sized all-solid-state battery. The company aims to commence the mass production of its new solution in 2026.
As compared to Li-ion batteries, all-solid-state batteries offer enhanced safety and greater flexibility in terms of shape. The company reportedly sent prototypes to its consumers for testing before production approval.
The next-gen all-solid-state battery features an industry-leading energy density of 200Wh/L. It can also be manufactured in curved shapes, making it ideal for smartwatches. Safety is also increased thanks to the non-flammable solid electrolyte.
Chosun expects the 2026 Galaxy Ring and Galaxy Watch could be the first set of devices to use the new battery technology. Samsung Elec won’t make any decision in a hurry as such a major change would be dangerous if not tested rigorously.
Samsung Electro-Mechanics explained that the battery is produced by stacking thin layers of electrodes and electrolyte materials, similar to the MLCC (multilayer ceramic capacitor) manufacturing technology it already possesses.
Samsung plans to begin mass production of 3D stacked SoC in 2026. The company wants to improve performance and overcome the difficulties of semiconductor miniaturization by stacking semiconductors with different functions.
The South Korean tech giant reportedly considering 3D stacked SoC. The company is pursuing both hybrid bonding and TC-NCF stack semiconductors vertically. It’s similar to HBM, which vertically stacks DRAM to increase bandwidth for AI calculations.
Samsung has recently conducted performance tests on stacking mobile APs with TC-NCF and has reportedly obtained good results. Furthermore, using TC-NCF for mobile APs is analyzed as a reflection of confidence in the technology.
Well, Samsung Foundry is not doing well for the next-gen process. The 3nm yield has not yet reached the threshold limit to enter mass production. Meanwhile, it’s good to see Samsung is continuing to innovate for a better future.
Hybrid bonding is an advanced packaging tech that directly connects the copper paths through which semiconductors exchange signals. The technology is not yet mature, hence, it cannot be used in system semiconductors for mobile devices.
To address this flaw, the company is reportedly developing both hybrid bonding and TC-NCF methods simultaneously. Before the hybrid bonding technology is perfected, TC-NCF will likely be applied first to implement 3D stacked mobile APs.
Microsoft announced the launch of a new Windows App for its operating system. The new app will allow Windows users to run Windows and Windows apps across Android, iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and web browsers.
Simply put, the Windows App is a replacement for Microsoft’s Remote Desktop app. The Windows app is available for download on Windows, but you need to sign in with a work or school account to proceed further with the connection.
Microsoft says this unified Windows App attempts to sum up its purpose. It serves as your secure gateway to connect to Windows across Windows 365, Azure Virtual Desktop, Remote Desktop, Remote Desktop Services, Microsoft Dev Box, and more.
- Download from Google Play Store
Whether you need to connect to Windows 365, Azure Virtual Desktop, Remote Desktop, Remote Desktop Services, or Microsoft Dev Box, Windows App simplifies the process to let you manage and utilize these resources from a single app.
What’s new with Windows App?
With the Windows App, you’ll see enhancements designed to make accessing and managing Windows resources even more seamless. These updates bring new features and improvements to your experience across all major platforms:
- Device and app actions: Simplify device management with a variety of integrated actions unique to supported solutions.
- Support for Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PCs: Enjoy extended compatibility for specialized use cases.
- In-app feedback: Windows 365 and Azure Virtual Desktop users can easily provide feedback within the app.
- Account switcher for Microsoft Entra ID: iOS and macOS users can take advantage of easy account switching when using a Microsoft Entra account.
- Relayed Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) Shortpath: Experience improved connectivity and performance for remote sessions.
