Buying a mobile in China is a brutal savings compared to Spain. The question is whether it ends out expensive

by

Mobile prices They have shot themselves, a lot. The High Premium range Round the 1,500 euros, the high range of 1,000 and it is not strange to find mid -range for about 500 euros. This has fired a fever for reconditioned and used mobiles, but also opens an interesting door in a crucial market in Spain: that of Chinese phones. Xiaomi is absolute king in Spainand manufacturers such as Vivo, Oppo and Honor Copan the Top 10. In not a few cases, these phones arrive in our country with cut -out specifications with respect to the Chinese variants. We will try to dissipate that fog around the purchase of mobiles in its Chinese version, outside the traditional distributors that sell the European and global versions we know. Hardware of Chinese VS European Before delving into the purchase process, it is convenient to know what they differ (and why they do) Chinese mobiles with respect to Europeans, since it is not minor details that separate some proposals from others. The battery. If we attend to recent releases, such as the Xiaomi 15 Ultra or the Magic7 Pro Honorthere is a key difference in the Chinese variant: it has much more battery. In Europe we receive practically the same model, but with a quite lower battery capacity. Reason? One: the costs. In the specific case of batteries, the new generation of Silicon-carbon with capacities of 6,000 or more milliamps hour It is especially expensive. Chinese manufacturers sell at a price in their native country, but import telephones to Spain has numerous costs related to transport, fees and taxes. Xiaomi herself recognized us that, if they wanted to continue bringing mobiles without raising prices, They had to cut off somewhere. The software. This is not the only difference we find and, sometimes, the Software differences They are especially relevant. This is the case of Vivo, who sells its phones with A -Ecuchos in Europe and with origin in his native country. OnePlus does the same with Oxygenos In Europe and color in China (although, for practical purposes, they are exactly the same), and Huawei is the most extreme case of all. In Europe, Emui, in China its own operating system, Harmonyos. In addition to not having Google services in China, these software differences can generate important incompatibilities with mobile payment services through NFC, and even HDR content reproduction in Netflix, since there are certain Google certificates that are not available in Chinese variants. The camera. Although camera hardware is usually identical regardless of the mobile version we buy, the image process is usually quite different. Manufacturers adapt how to process the final photography depending on the market to which the phone is intended. Sometimes they succeed, sometimes not so much. This is the case of the living X200 Pro, whose Chinese version Take better photographs than the global Hardware equality. Connectivity. If you buy a mobile in its Chinese version, you may suffer some problems related to connectivity. Yes, all 5G Chinese mobiles can use 5G in Spain, but there is a fact to take into account: bands. In China the same 5G bands are not used, and you may end up buying a phone that lacks crucial bands. What are these bands for? Mainly, so that you have good coverage in complicated areas, such as rural or interior. Some of the most used bands in Spain are not used in China. Mobile payments. Paying with the mobile is a basic, and some mobile phones with Chinese rom have serious problems to get it in Spain. This is due to the lack of native Google services and certification problems such as Play Integrity API. How much we save buying the mobile in China If the question is how much it saves buying a mobile directly from China the question is … big money. Technically at this price we should add VAT and customs costs. The reality is that Chinese stores are responsible for adjusting the customs statement so that we do not have to pay (generally) nothing extra. Even if you have to pay an extra tax, it would continue to account. In some cases, buying the mobile from China costs almost half, a very point to take into account if we are willing to face the small inconveniences we have mentioned above. The questions to be asked when buying a mobile from China Well, we already know that a mobile purchased in China will arrive with Chinese Rom (yes, sellers usually pre -installed Google services so you can use all your apps without problem), which you may miss any band (something you can check in your list of Specs), which you will save a lot of money and may what you are buying is even better than the global model. Now it’s time to answer some extra questions. How long does a mobile take from China? This will depend completely on the store and its shipping method, but this has ceased to be a problem for years. If the store is solvent you can have the mobile at home in less than a week. In the worst case, the waiting time is usually two to three weeks. What guarantee does a telephone bought in China have? If you buy a mobile outside the European Union, the guarantee depends completely on the seller. In recent years, most stores have put the batteries, and offer repair guarantees between one and two years. Of course, we will pay the shipping costs, and sending to China is not especially cheap. What version am I buying? Depending on the version we buy, the phone will have hardware and software characteristics. For example, if we buy an Xiaomi with Global Rom from China, we will have a phone with the best of the European version at a much lower price. If we buy the version with Chinese ROM, we will have a phone with an English system and some problems. It should always be assured which exact … Read more

Spain lives a brutal birth crisis. And that is causing mothers above 40 years to grow more than ever

by

In Spain they are born every time Less children. And increasingly. The balance That the INE has just published with the first global photography of birth and mortality in Spain throughout 2024 leaves some surprises but above all confirm the trends that have been marking the demography of the country for years. And one of the clearest is the gradual delay of motherhood: more and more women have children turned 40 or even with 50. And there is a fact that clearly reflects it: 10.4%. A (small) joy. They are still provisional data, so the photo that leaves The last report of the INE could vary over the coming months. However, waiting for the definitive balance, Spain seems to have closed 2024 with a (small) demographic joy. His birthday has rebounded. In a shy and that has not served to compensate for the number of deaths and thus avoid a vegetative balance in Red numbersbut at least allows you to cut the negative trend of the last decade. A percentage: 0.4%. That is the birth increase registered by the INE in 2024: 0.4%which translates into 1,378 births rather than in 2023. Throughout the last year they came to the world in Spain 322,034 babies, almost 1,400 more than during the previous 12 months. The data leaves a positive reading and another that is not so much, depending on how much we amounts to the temporal focus when analyzing it. The first is that it represents the first birth rise since 2014, when the balance touched the 427,600 babies. However, despite that climb, the Spanish demographic engine does not have today Nothing to do With the years of the Baby Boomthere for 50, 60 and mid -70s, when they were born in the country between 650,000 and 660,000 babies a year. The INE reflects for example that in 1975 they were noted almost 669,400so since then the collapse has been 52%. And a figure: 33,570. The balance of the INE helps to understand another of the key factors of Spanish demography: maternity. And when analyzing one of Trends clearer is its progressive delay. More and more Spanish have children with 40 or more years, to the point that in 2024 that profile was behind 33,570 births. What does that mean? That one out of ten Babies born in Spain (10.4%) already do it from women who exceed thirty. In 2014 that percentage was significantly lower, of 7.2%. Year Births of women 40 or more years Middle Ages to Maternity 2000 10,163 30.72 2004 15.017 30.87 2008 22,026 30.83 2012 28,289 31.56 2016 34,452 32.0 2020 34,858 32.3 2024 33,570 32.6 (data of 2023) Looking back. In 2014 the INE scored 30,946 births of women of 40 or more years, so that the increase has been 8.5% in a decade. During the same period the number of babies born of mothers under 25 years fell 21.9% and the births of women between 25 and 39, the one with the greatest weight, retreated 27.9%. If you look further back the trend is even clearer. In 2000 the INE counted in Spain 397,632 birthsof which 10,163 were related to women who had already arrived or exceeded quarantine. That is, at that time its weight was only 2.5% of the total and the number of lighting has shot 230% since then. In 2004, women of 40 or more years starred 15,017 birthswith what your number has doubled. The other indicator: Middle Ages. There is another clue that helps to understand how they are quickly changing motherhood in Spain: its Middle Agesan indicator that has practically not stopped growing over the last decades. If in 1976 it was located in 28.51in 2000 it was already 30.72, in 2010 it climbed at 31.2 and in 2023 it was 32.6 years. That is, the average has increased more than four years since the 70s. In the EU, a gradual increase of the age at which women have their first offspring. What are the causes? The big question. The increase in what the INE calls “Middle Ages to Maternity” And the number of women who give birth to the 40 years coincides with other phenomena that directly affect women, as the Professor of Human Geography Rafael Puyol recently pointed out in An article dedicated to the Spanish demographic crisis. The expert specified in particular the educational revolution and the incorporation and women into the labor market, in addition to cultural changes and the family model.

‘Ninja Gaiden 4’ and an immersion in the new and brutal ‘DOOM’, highlights of the new Xbox Developer Direct

by

Xbox has once again given us an approach to four of its studios so that we can access the development of as many of its most anticipated upcoming games, in a Developer Direct which has included a surprise with a game that was not announced until now. At that point and with that expected announcement the event has started. Ninja Gaiden 4 Team Ninja, creators of the franchise, and Platinum Games, responsible for monuments to frenetic action such as ‘Bayonetta’ or ‘NieR:Automata’ have brought back ‘Ninja Gaiden’, giving continuity to the saga with even more style. futuristic. Ten years have passed after the last installment, and we will have a new protagonist, Yakumo, from the Crow Clan, although the legendary Ryu Hayabusa will also make an appearanceamong other unspecified cameos from the franchise. With two combat styles for the hero (Raven and Nué, between which you can switch), we are promised a “dark and hardcore atmosphere” in a world in decay where buildings collapse before us. A reformulated combat where the touch of Platinum is detected is the great attraction of this game that is committed to verticality and executions, and which will arrive in autumn 2025 on Xbox, but also on PC and Playstation 5. As a tip, Team Ninja has said goodbye with a gift for old-school fans of the saga: a remake in Unreal Engine 5 of the 2008 classic ‘Ninja Gaiden II Black’original for Xbox 360. It is now available and free for Game Pass users on both Xbox and PC DOOM: The Dark Ages The legend of first-person action is confirmed as a true brutality capable of continuing with dignity the superb ‘DOOM’ from 2016 and ‘DOOM Eternal’ from 2020. The setting is a refreshing turn for the style of the series, with everything which brings about the reinvention of the arsenal and also the reformulation of the settings and the plot, which tells of a savage medieval war against hell. id Software has decided that this delivery will be a good gateway to the series for new players and has tinkered with the hardcore style of the franchise to make it more accessible: plot that is explained in cinematics, configurable combat to make it simpler if desired (don’t worry the most hardcore slayers) and a control system that reduces the buttons for executions. It has been seen with items such as the saw-shield, which is used to attack, protect and make parriesbut contextually according to the situation and using a single button. We have also seen a preview of game elements such as the Slayer’s 30-story-high mecha or the flying dragon, in a game that promises to be one of the most gargantuan of the year. It will arrive on May 15 on multiplatform. South of Midnight From Montreal, Compulsion Games has presented an immersive and almost poetic third-person adventure gameset in America’s deep, gothic south. It tells the story of a young woman who is separated from her mother in a flood, and on her journey to find her again, she acquires powers that allow her to visualize another reality and detect echoes of the past. As you progress in your quest you will find tools such as hooks or staffs that will allow you to plan, climb or confront enemies. With an interesting catalog of final enemies inspired by southern folklore, a setting of farms, swamps and even the Appalachians, and animation based on the techniques stop motionthis game promises a relaxed and atmospheric adventure. It arrives on Xbox and PC on April 8. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 We travel to France, where Sandfall Interactive has presented this very careful RPG with turn-based combat, with a fantasy setting but based on the country’s Belle Epoque. It is inevitable to think of games like ‘Final Fantasy’ seeing the group of motley adventurers, each with their own motivations and desires, and all with a common goal: in this case, ending a kind of enchantment that causes everyone to die at the age of 33. Certainly, in these times of accessible mechanics for impatient fans, it is brave to jump into a game whose combat takes place in turns, although Sandfall has polished it so that it is not frustrating, with real-time elements. Although the most attractive thing about the game, without a doubt, is the impressive fauna it exhibits, with creatures like the Gestrals, who understand battle as a form of meditation, or Esquie, a kind of god who moves like a hot air balloon. It will arrive on April 24, and from day one on Game Pass. In Xataka | The best video games of 2025 and the most interesting ones to come
