Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 8 Pro (review) last month, which is powered by MediaTek G90T chipset. Now, according to a leak, the company is working on a new variant of the Redmi Note 8 Pro, which will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G chipset instead.

This information comes via leakster Xiaomishka, who shared a post of Twitter on Wednesday. Per his post, two new model numbers have appeared on on China's certification website 3C — M1912G7BE and M1912G7BC – which hints that Xiaomi is working on a new version of the Note 8 Pro with the Snapdragon 730G chipset.

However, Xiaomi vice president Lu Weibing has shared a post on Weibo, confirming the previously rumoured timeline for Redmi K30's launch in 2020.

Redmi K30 has recently been teased by Xiaomi as well. Last month, Redmi General Manager Lu Weibing teased two posters of the Redmi K30 on Weibo. The porters revealed that the Redmi K30 will sport a dual-punch hole display camera for selfies. The two front cameras are seen horizontally aligned and are placed on the top right of the smartphone.

The teaser also confirmed that the smartphone will have dual-band 5G support. Reportedly, Redmi K30 will have 5G standalone and non-standalone (SA/NSA) sub-6Hz networks. The latter was also confirmed by Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun in a separate post on Weibo.

Apple Music 'Replay' puts together your top songs from each year into playlists

Apple Music has introduced a new feature called "Replay" which will let you look back at your most heard songs, favorite artists or albums from each year. You will see separate playlists for each year starting from the year you joined Apple Music. These playlists can also be added to your library and you can listen to them offline as well.

As reported by TechCrunch, just like songs, you can even share these playlists with your friends or post them on social media.

The Apple Replay feature is an answer to Spotify's Wrapped feature that also curates the most heard songs of the year.

This playlist will reportedly update every week so that it can reflect the latest activity of the user in the playlist.

Introducing Apple Music Replay. Your favorite tracks of the year — all in one playlist, updated weekly. See what songs, artists, and albums defined your year in music: https://t.co/YpdjyXnL85 pic.twitter.com/dn4BDApcJX

— Apple Music (@AppleMusic) November 14, 2019

This feature is similar to "Wrapped" by Spotify that also gives an annual report card as to what songs did you play on loop, your favourite artists, most played albums and so on. The main difference between Replay and Wrapped is that Replay is updated every week on Sunday but that is not the case with Spotify's Wrapped.

To get started, all you need to do is go to this website, click on "Get your replay mix", log in with your Apple ID and voila! You can enjoy your memory down the lane!
