Milagrow launches India’s fastest and most powerful robotic pool cleaners for homes and hospitality

Milagrow has introduced two high-end robotic pool cleaners, the RP25 Professional and RP30 Professional, engineered to automate deep cleaning for modern homes, resorts and luxury hotels. Both models use the company’s Robotic 6th Sense and Smart Z Programming to map, navigate and clean pools of any shape, including tiled and vinyl surfaces.

The RP25 is built for villas and clubhouses, featuring dual motors, four scrubbing wheels and the ability to climb up to six feet for variable-depth pools. It reduces energy use by up to 93 percent and cuts chemical requirements by nearly 30 percent.

The RP30 targets large commercial pools with a 30-metre swivel cable, higher torque motors and advanced safety sensors.

Amit Gupta, Senior Vice President at Milagrow, said the lineup “brings world-class robotic intelligence to Indian homes and hospitality spaces,” enabling safer and more sustainable maintenance. Both models are available on Milagrow’s website and Amazon India with a one-year warranty.

OnePlus 15R confirmed for India with OxygenOS 16 and flagship-grade upgrades

OnePlus has confirmed that the OnePlus 15R is set to launch in India soon, positioning it as the next major entry in its performance-focused R-series. The company has already revealed that the phone will ship with OxygenOS 16, built on Android 15, and early leaks point to a significant jump in hardware tuned for speed, gaming and all-day efficiency.

The 15R is expected to feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or an equivalent flagship-tier chipset, along with a 120 Hz AMOLED display, fast charging above 100 W, and a larger battery than the current generation. OnePlus is also reportedly refining its thermal management system to deliver sustained performance under heavy workloads.

The device may include a 50 MP Sony sensor as its primary camera with improved low-light processing powered by OxygenOS 16’s new imaging algorithms. Storage variants are expected to start at 8 GB RAM and 128 GB, with higher options planned.

Pricing is anticipated to fall in the ₹40,000 to ₹45,000 range, keeping the 15R in the upper-mid segment while offering near-flagship performance. With the India launch approaching, OnePlus is preparing for one of its biggest releases of the year, aimed at power users who want speed without the premium-flagship price.

Minecraft players report global login and server issues

Minecraft appears to be experiencing a widespread outage, with players across multiple regions reporting login failures, server disconnects and errors while accessing multiplayer worlds. The issue began surfacing earlier today as users flooded social platforms with complaints about being unable to sign in to their Microsoft or Mojang accounts.

According to player reports, both Java Edition and Bedrock Edition are affected. Many users say they are stuck on authentication screens or are unable to connect to Realms and community servers. Downdetector has also recorded a sharp spike in outage reports, suggesting the problem is not limited to a specific region.

Microsoft has not yet issued a detailed public statement, but the company has acknowledged service disruptions on its status page and said engineers are investigating.

For now, players are advised to wait as the issue appears to be on the server side rather than a client or device failure. The outage has temporarily disrupted one of the world’s most active online gaming communities, especially during peak evening traffic.
