That includes the chipmaker Qualcomm and Yuantai Technology on one end and the app developers on the other. Besides these, the company will also be introducing its new revamped BooxOS platform at the same event.

With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets. That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
