Airtel Priority Postpaid

Earlier I explained how Jio leveraging their deployment of 5G-Standalone (5G-SA) technology to launch its Air Fiber services and has become world's largest operator on Fixed Wireless Access (5G-FWA) in July last year. Jio expanded its FWA services with UBR (unlicensed band radio) over 5GHz band. 

Photography Kits by the Smartphones - A New Level to Mobile Photography

I can't recall the date, but in 2023 Xiaomi first unveiled the photography kit for its Xiaomi 13 Ultra in China. (Ok now checked it was 18th April, 2023). This original release marked the first time a smartphone manufacturer offered a dedicated, branded eco-system package to transform a phone into a traditional camera body.

That first first-party Photography Kit introduced - Camera inspired Grip with Bluetooth connectivity to the smartphone, 67mm Filter Adapter Ring, Premium Nano-skin Case, Custom metal Lens Cap and Lanyard - and thus laid the groundwork for future photography kit for the smartphones. 

The evolution of Xiaomi’s first-party photography kits shows a clear shift from basic wireless controls to zero-latency, high-power modular systems.
