Oppo launched the K13 Turbo series smartphones in China last week, and it has been teasing these phones in India for the past few days. Oppo hasn’t revealed when it will launch the K13 Turbo series in India, but we’ve learned from a reliable source that the lineup will debut in India in the week of August 11. To be more precise, between August 11 and August 14.
Oppo’s K13 Turbo series includes two phones – the Oppo K13 Turbo and the Oppo K13 Turbo Pro. Both have similar designs and specs, with the most significant difference being the chipset. The K13 Turbo is powered by the Dimensity 8450 SoC, while the K13 Turbo Pro has the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip at the helm.
One of the biggest highlights of these phones is the built-in cooling fan, advertised to help the devices run 2–4°C cooler under high-load conditions. Oppo’s Indian branch said this fan module will be IPX6, IPX8, and IPX9-rated, and the smartphones will have 7,000 mAh batteries under the hood.
We are yet to get an official confirmation on whether or not the Oppo K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro’s Indian models will share the design and specs with their Chinese counterparts.

Kea: Button Remapper has received a major update that brings a new Floating App Sidebar, Action Combos, more customization options and several new features for Android users.
The update also brings a redesigned user interface with improved animations, blur effects and a cleaner overall look. While Kea remains available as a free app, some of the new features are available through the paid Kea Pro version.
Floating App Sidebar
One of the main additions in the update is the new Floating App Sidebar. It allows users to pin their favorite apps and actions and quickly access them from anywhere on the phone.
Users can add apps such as YouTube, Instagram, Gmail, games, and more, as well as actions, to the sidebar. The sidebar also supports customization for its position, number of rows and columns, background, icon style, and accent color.
The background can be changed between transparent, translucent and solid styles. Users can also choose different icon styles and customize the sidebar’s color using the available color options and color wheel.
Action Lab Combos
Another new feature is Action Lab Combos. It allows users to perform multiple actions with a single button press.
For example, users can create a shortcut that mutes media volume and enables Do Not Disturb at the same time. This can be useful during meetings when multiple settings need to be changed quickly.
Users can also create their own custom combos by selecting multiple actions and arranging them into a sequence.
Voice and Call Recording
Kea Pro also adds shortcuts for voice recording and call recording using the Nothing Recorder widget.
After setting up the required Recorder widget, users can assign a button press to start or stop recording. Saved recordings can then be accessed through the Nothing Recorder app.
More Customization
The update brings several new options for Kea’s visual overlays. Users can choose different styles, including Dark, Frosted and Smoke themes.
There are also different animation effects, while the position of the overlay can be adjusted for different hardware keys. Kea Pro users can further customize the accent color and use a color wheel for more control over the appearance.
More Features for Nothing Phones
Kea Pro also includes several features designed for Nothing Phone users. These include Glyph Torch and Glyph Timer shortcuts.
Users can assign these features to different button gestures. The app also supports shortcuts such as Circle to Search, QR code scanning and additional hardware button actions.
The app also supports volume button mapping and power button customization, giving users more ways to control different actions using physical buttons.
Free Version Still Available
Kea: Button Remapper continues to offer a free version with more than 30 actions and support for four different button gestures. The free version also includes features such as visual overlays, lock screen controls and a Quick Settings tile.
The Floating App Sidebar, Action Combos, volume button mapping, voice and call recording, Glyph shortcuts and other additional features are available with Kea Pro.
Kea Pro is offered as a one-time lifetime purchase, giving users permanent access to the Pro features after purchasing it.

Google Photos has started rolling out a new update that introduces powerful AI editing tools along with a fresh user interface. The highlight of this update is the “Reimagine” feature, which lets users edit and transform their photos in completely new ways.
With this update, users can now:
- Erase objects from photos with just a tap.
- Move objects around within an image.
- Apply portrait blur to the background.
- Experiment with Sky Styles to change how the sky looks.
- Use Reimagine to change colors, add new elements like airplanes, or even transform objects into something different.
The update is rolling out through the Google Play Store, so users only need to update their Google Photos app to the latest version. The features are already appearing on many Android devices, including Nothing Phones.
While Nothing’s own Gallery app doesn’t yet include AI editing, Google Photos is filling that gap by offering advanced tools. Users have already tested features like erasing cars, changing their colors, and adding new objects seamlessly into photos.
Overall, this update makes Google Photos a powerful editing tool, giving Android users easy access to AI-driven creativity right inside their photo gallery.
