Poco F7 Global Variant Reportedly Spotted on EEC Certification Site, Expected to Launch Soon

Poco F7 has been the subject of numerous rumours in recent weeks, alongside the speculated Poco F7 Pro and Poco F7 Ultra variants. Earlier reports suggested that the higher-end Pro and Ultra models are unlikely to launch in India. However, a "special edition" variant is expected to debut alongside the standard model in the country. Now, the global version of the Poco F7 has reportedly been listed on a certification site, hinting at its imminent availability in Europe.

Poco F7 Global Variant EEC Listing 

The Poco F7 with the model number 25053PC47G was spotted on the European Economic Community (EEC) database, according to a report by The Tech Outlook. It appears with the notification number KZ0000009843 and the listing suggests the certification will be valid till December 31, 2034, the report added.

The 'G' in the model number indicates that this is the global variant of the purported Poco F7. The EEC listing also suggests that the phone will be available in European markets. However, it does not reveal any other specifications or features of the handset. 

Earlier reports have claimed that the vanilla Poco F7 could launch with similar features as the Redmi Turbo 4, which was unveiled in China in January. The handset could be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8400-Ultra SoC and ship with Android 15-based HyperOS 2.0. It is expected to sport a 6.67-inch 1.5K OLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection and Dolby Vision support.

For optics, the Poco F7 could be equipped with a 50-megapixel primary rear sensor, an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera, and a 20-megapixel selfie camera. For security, the handset could carry an in-display fingerprint sensor. It may be backed by a 6,550mAh battery with support for 90W wired fast charging. 

Notably, the Poco F7 Ultra has been tipped to be "exclusive to global sectors." The Pro variant is expected to launch in select global markets alongside the base Poco F7.

Apple Will Reportedly Launch New iCloud-Based ‘Confetti’ Service for Event Invites This Week

Apple may roll out a dedicated service for events and invites as soon as this week, according to a recent newsletter published by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. It is likely to be iCloud-based and could build upon the company's recent ambitions of revamping its Calendar app. The new service is said to be tied to the Cupertino-based technology giant's most recent update for the iPhone, which was released to the public last week.

Apple's ‘Confetti' Service

In the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman highlights that Apple's new iCloud-based service may be dubbed ‘Confetti'. It is expected to be released internally as soon as this week as a “new way to invite people to parties, functions, and meetings”. The journalist says it will be tied to the iOS 18.3 update, which was released recently with key changes to the Apple Intelligence-powered notification summaries feature.

However, it still remains unknown if Apple will offer its new ‘Confetti' service as a standalone app or as a mini app within other apps such as Messages or Calendar.

This revelation builds upon the recent claims that the company was developing a new app dubbed ‘Invites' which is designed for organising meetings and sharing invites for in-person and online events. With this new service, Apple is speculated to provide users with a list of the people invited to a certain event and inform them about those who have RSVP'd their attendance for it.

The references for the app were reportedly discovered in the latest beta version of iOS 18.3's code.

Apple could differentiate this service from the existing Calendar app, which offers similar functionality, by adding some additional features. The company is reported to offer iCloud integration and it could even have a web version on iCloud.com. Further, it may also be integrated with a daemon in Apple's operating systems dubbed GroupKit. It enables communication and sharing between apps and users leveraging app groups, groups, and, GroupActivityMetadata.
