Redmi Note 14 SE 5G launched in India with 5110mAh battery, priced under ₹15,000: Specifications, features and more
The Redmi Note 14 SE 5G features a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, peak brightness of up to 2100 nits, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. The display also incorporates an in-screen fingerprint sensor, marking a shift in biometric security from physical sensors in previous budget models.
Catering to media consumption needs, the device includes dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support and retains a 3.5mm headphone jack, a feature increasingly absent in many new smartphone releases. The phone aims to support users engaged in audio-heavy tasks such as streaming or gaming.
In terms of optics, the handset is equipped with a 50MP Sony LYT-600 main sensor featuring Optical Image Stabilisation, alongside an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a macro sensor. The triple camera set-up is expected to handle a range of photography requirements, from wide-angle shots to close-ups.
Powering the phone is a 5110mAh battery with support for 45W fast charging. Xiaomi claims this will allow extended usage while reducing the time spent plugged in.
The Redmi Note 14 SE 5G is being manufactured locally, continuing Xiaomi's efforts to produce its smartphone line-up in India. It joins three other models in the current Note 14 series: the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G, Note 14 Pro 5G, and Note 14 5G.
Offered in three colour options: Crimson Red, Mystique White, and Titan Black, the phone is available in a 6GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration. It is priced at ₹ 14,999, with a limited-period ₹ 1,000 discount available on all major bank cards, bringing the effective starting price to ₹ 13,999.

Instant answers: India's fintechs harness GenAI
Bengaluru: Generative AI is rewriting the rules of finance, and nowhere is the upheaval sharper than in India's booming fintech scene. Brokerage chatbots that speak four languages, payment assistants that fix errors in seconds, and back-office engines that close two-hundred-million credit accounts before dawn are steadily stripping cost and friction out of money management—and propelling a new breed of startups onto the world stage. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now That momentum explains why Tiffany Bloomquist, who runs the startups business for Amazon Web Services (AWS) across Asia-Pacific and Japan, now touches down in India almost every quarter. Meeting founders in Bengaluru during a recent visit, she said GenAI has quickly become the fastest route to improving customer experience and urged entrepreneurs to weave the technology into every layer of their products. Three local tail-winds, she said, are fuelling the surge. F irst, the govet's India Stack gives developers ready-made digital rails for identity, payments and data-sharing. Second, Nasscom counts more than 240 Indian GenAI startups today, up from just 66 early last year. Third, AWS's ten-week GenAI Accelerator—supported by a $230 million fund—offers up to $1 million in credits, matches mentors and organises brisk "speed connect" meetings with big corporate buyers. Seven Indian firms have already won places on the current cohort. What, then, are those firms actually doing? Stock-broking platform Dhan, serving roughly three million traders, was drowning in know-your-customer (KYC) checks. By training a language model on its own policy documents, it now answers a quarter of those queries automatically, halving average wait times and cutting support costs by nearly a third. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Payment specialist Easebuzz faced merchants who repeatedly rang in with integration snags. Its new assistant, ERA, reads each message, compares it with technical manuals and suggests step-by-step fixes in real time. Redundant tickets have dropped by 80% and responses that once took 20 minutes arrive in seconds. At banking tech company Zeta, the numbers are bigger still. Every night the firm must post millions of transactions that merchants queue during the day. A cloud-based processing engine—reinforced with AI routines that predict the heaviest bursts—now reconciles 208 million credit accounts in about 40 minutes, a feat that would once have demanded a nine-figure hardware budget. Debt-marketplace Yubi uses large-language models to refresh credit scores. Feeding the software a lake of public filings and bank statements lets risk models update in hours rather than days, trimming a third off the time borrowers wait for funding offers. The common recipe is simple: distil company knowledge into an AI model, surface it through a chat-style interface and run it on servers that expand only when the rush arrives. "We used to automate servers," Bloomquist said. "Now we're automating compliance, advice, and trust. Founders who seize that shift will shape the next decade of finance."

WinZO disputes Google's CCI proposal on Play Store rules
Bengaluru: Real‑money gaming platform WinZO has raised concerns over Google's latest proposal to the Competition Commission of India (CCI), arguing that it does not adequately address the anti‑competitive issues flagged in an ongoing investigation. The case originates from WinZO's December 2022 complaint alleging that Google abused its dominant position by restricting Play Store access to only fantasy sports and rummy apps while excluding other real‑money gaming categories. With Google controlling 96% of India's app distribution market, WinZO said this policy inflated user acquisition costs by 'at least 10x' for apps distributed outside the Play Store. Acting on the complaint, the CCI in November 2024 ordered a formal investigation, citing prima facie violations of competition law, including the imposition of unfair conditions, denial of market access and limiting of market development. The Commission had noted Google's lack of clear criteria for its pilot programme, inconsistent enforcement of its ads policy and 'misleading payment warnings' shown to users sideloading apps, which it said artificially deterred usage. In a public notice issued recently the CCI invited comments on Google's commitment offer. Google's proposal includes allowing all real‑money games that are certified by recognised third‑party bodies, replacing its pilot programme for fantasy sports and rummy apps and permitting certified skill‑based games to advertise on Google Ads. If approved, Google has committed to implement the Play Store changes within 120 days and its advertising changes within 150 days of the CCI's order. The deadline for public comments is August 20, 2025. Responding to WinZO's objections, a Google spokesperson said the company welcomed the CCI's market testing of its proposed framework, describing it as the result of 'constructive discussions' with the regulator and Indian developers. Google added that it is confident the proposal will create 'a more open and safe ecosystem' for real‑money gaming apps, empower local developers and prioritise user safety. In its statement, WinZO said Google's commitments 'must be robust and genuinely eliminate the discriminatory practices identified,' adding that the proposed framework's reference to 'developing' a commercial model for real‑money gaming lacked clear timelines or objective criteria. WinZO, which reported a 70% rise in revenue to Rs 1,055 crore and a 151% increase in profit to Rs 315 crore in FY24, said it will continue to participate in the consultation process 'to ensure fairness, transparency and a level playing field in India's digital economy.'

Tesla to inaugurate first India supercharging station in Mumbai next week
American electric car maker Tesla on Friday said it will launch its first charging station in Mumbai next week. The company, which had announced its much-awaited entry into the Indian market last month, said the first Tesla Charging Station in India will feature four V4 Supercharging Stalls (DC charging) and four Destination charging Stalls (AC charging). The Tesla Supercharging Stalls offer a peak charging speed of 250 kW starting at Rs 24/kW and destination chargers providing 11kW at Rs 14/kW, it said in a statement. "This will be the first of the eight Supercharging sites that were announced during the launch in Mumbai, with more planned across the country, to provide the optimal cross-country experience," the company added. Last month, Tesla launched its Model Y with price starting at Rs 59.89 lakh while opening its first experience centre at the Maker Maxity Commercial Complex, in Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai. Tesla said the "Model Y can add up to 267 kilometres of range in just 15 minutes with Tesla Superchargers, enough for 5 return trips between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Mumbai and Gateway of India". The company said it will be providing a free wall connector with purchase of a new Tesla to be installed in customers' residences.
