Huawei Mate 9 won't be unveiled at company's September event

While we were expecting to see the Mate 8successor at Huawei's September 1 event, looks like that won't be the case. According to Bruce Lee, a mobile product line manager at the Chinese company, the Mate 9 won't be made official so early - that's in context with the fact that the Mate 8 arrived towards the end of last year.

In case you missed, the Mate 9 has already been subject of some rumors, with a recent one suggesting that it will be powered by the homegrown, and yet-to-be-announced Kirin 960 chipset with octa-core CPU, and sport a 20MP dual rear camera setup.

So, assuming that Lee is correct (we don't have any reason not to believe him), what to expect from Huawei's September event? Well, remember that new Huawei phone - said to be Mate 8 variant with Force Touch display - that was recently spotted on TENAA? Who knows, it may be the star of the event.

MIUI 8.0 set for August launch, version 7.5 (China stable ROM) starts rolling today

Xiaomi has confirmed that its latest MIUI ROM (version 8.0) will be launched in August, although an exact date is yet to be revealed. The ROM was unveiled last month, and a beta version was made available for download earlier this month.

We already briefed you about the changes included in MIUI 8, and just recently it was revealed that the ROM will also bring along the split-screen multitasking feature, also known as multi-window mode.

But before MIUI 8.0 arrives, the company will release version 7.5 of the ROM that contains some of the new features included in version 8.0. In fact, the roll-out for China stable ROM is set for today (should have already begun) - head to the source link below for more details.
