The Southeast Asian smartphone market is recovering from the challenging macroeconomic conditions of 2023, and it is expected to grow 4% in 2024.

The Southeast Asian smartphone market experienced a 12% year-on-year growth in Q1 2024, reaching 23.5 million units.

Shipments: Smartphone manufacturers shipped 23.5 million units, but they are still below pre-2023 levels.

One of the main driving forces of the Q1 success is Ramadan in some markets like Indonesia and Malaysia, while other companies like Transsion benefited from markets like Philippines and Indonesia where the sub-$100 segments saw a revival.

Samsung is still in the lead with 19% market share, despite its shipment volume tanking 20% year-on-year.

Transsion gains a lot of momentum starting this year. It went from 7 (1.4M) to 18 (4.2M) percent in just a year.

Xiaomi is up 4%, which isn't bad.

Apple has a low presence in SouthEast Asia, let alone Asia at all.

Gemini for Android is getting upgraded with new contextual capabilities!

- A new “ask this video” chip will appear if you invoke Gemini while a YouTube video is open. Gemini will then use the YouTube video as context.

- A new “ask this PDF” chip will appear when you’re viewing a PDF file in supported apps. Tapping this will let you ask questions about/summarize the document. This requires Gemini Advanced, though, because of its longer context window.

- You’ll be able to drag and drop generated images directly into Gmail, Messages, and other supported apps.

- Finally, devices with the next-gen multimodal Gemini Nano will surface dynamic suggestions. The way this works is that a screenshot of the screen is fed to Gemini Nano, which can then generate chips of potential things you might want to ask about.

Based on recent leaks, the Sony Xperia 1 VI is shaping up to be a powerful contender in the flagship smartphone market. Here's a closer look at its rumored specs:

1. Processor: Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset for lightning-fast performance.

2. Display: 19.5:9 FHD+ Large OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth visuals and a variable 1Hz-240Hz touch sampling rate for ultra-responsive gaming.

3. Camera: Triple-lens rear camera system with a 48MP main sensor, a 16mm ultrawide sensor, and a 48MP telephoto sensor with variable focal length.

4. Battery: 5,000mAh battery with long-lasting power and support for fast charging.

5. Other features: IP65/IP68 water resistance, dedicated headphone jack, and a variety of gaming-focused features like a game enhancer, FPS optimizer, and a vapor chamber cooling system.

While Sony has yet to officially confirm these specs, the leaks paint a picture of a well-rounded phone that could appeal to gamers, mobile photographers, and anyone who demands the best from their smartphone.

Google is exploring the possibility of running Chrome OS on Android devices. This would involve using a virtual machine to create a Chrome OS environment within the Android system. This could potentially allow Android devices to run Chrome apps and extensions, offering a more desktop-like experience when connected to an external display.

It's important to note that this is still in the experimental stage, and there's no guarantee that it will be rolled out to the public. However, it's an interesting development that could have implications for the future of both Android and Chrome.

The Realme 12 Pro is a beautiful device.

Sony is moving to a “new display technology” on the Xperia 1 VI which is likely a new version of its BRAVIA engine which is also used on the 2024 lineup of BRAVIA TVs. The more important bit is that the Xperia 1 VI will move to a more traditional 19.5:9 aspect ratio instead of the 21:9 ratio seen on all previous Xperia 1 models.
