Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra reportedly sets 24MP as default for RAW images switching from 12MP

Dec 19, 2023

Samsung‘s upcoming Galaxy S24 Ultra is reported to shift from the default 12 million pixels to 24 million pixels for RAW image capture. This move mirrors Apple’s strategy with the iPhone 15 Pro series, which introduced algorithmic adjustments to output default images at 24 megapixels from its 48 MP sensor. The leaked information, shared by source Ahmed Qwaider, indicates that Samsung aims to keep pace with Apple’s imaging advancements.

Galaxy S24 Ultra will also enhance images you’ve already captured with AI

The Galaxy S23 Ultra, equipped with a 200 MP main camera supports both 200 MP, 50 MP, and 12MP modes. Leaks surrounding the Galaxy S24 Ultra suggest the continuation of the same main camera resolution.

One noteworthy feature anticipated in the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s camera system is the “Photo Remaster” function. Drawing inspiration from the Galaxy Book 4 series notebooks, Samsung is expected to infuse AI elements to enhance captured images. The Photo Remaster function reportedly offers three distinct options: Portrait, Remaster, and Delete.

The Portrait option is geared towards creating a nuanced depth of field for enhanced subject rendering after you have already taken an image in normal mode, while Remaster provides a one-click enhancement for pictures. The Delete option is anticipated to eliminate unnecessary elements from images, probably similar to the Magic Fraser feature we saw on the Google Pixel 8 Pro, but with a refined implementation.

Furthermore, akin to the Natural Density filter found in DSLRs, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is rumored to introduce a feature that adopts a similar implementation by controlling parameters such as shutter exposure. However, the ND Filter feature isn’t new and it currently exists inside the Expert RAW Labs section of the Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Oppo appears to be prepping a new tablet for the global market, dubbed the Oppo Pad Neo. The tablet received NBTC certification back in September followed by the IMDA and SIRIM listing. Now the same device has popped up on the Bluetooth SIG certification site.

The Bluetooth SIG listing reveals the model number (OPD2303) and confirms Bluetooth 5.2 support for the tablet.

Oppo-Pad-Neo-Bluetooth-SIG-Certification

Interestingly, the same model number belongs to the OnePlus Pad Go, suggesting the Pad Neo might be a rebranded version for the global market.

This wouldn’t be the first time Oppo rebrands a OnePlus device. They recently launched the Oppo Pad Air 2 in China, also a rebranded OnePlus Pad Go.

Therefore, we can expect similar specs for the Pad Neo. This likely includes an 11.35-inch 2.4K LCD display with a 7:5 aspect ratio. It might come with 8GB RAM and storage options of 128GB or 256GB, powered by the Helio G99 chipset. A large 8,000mAh battery with USB-C charging (USB 2.0 standard) is also likely.

Camera-wise, an 8MP front camera and rear camera are expected. For immersive audio, four speakers with Dolby Atmos support could be onboard. The software side might see ColorOS based on Android 14, with a microSD card slot for expandable storage.

Oppo hasn’t announced an official launch date for the Pad Neo for the global market. However since the device has appeared on various certifications, the launch could be imminent. We might even see its release alongside the Oppo Reno 11 series which launched in China back in November.

Dec 19, 2023

The Nubia Z60 Ultra has officially made its debut in China. It is ZTE’s third Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered smartphone for the Chinese market after the Red Magic 9 Pro and Red Magic 9 Pro+, which are gaming-focused smartphones. Like the predecessor models, the Z60 Ultra promises top-notch camera performance and thus serves as a good rival for the likes of the OnePlus 12, Realme GT 5 Pro, iQOO 12 Pro, and Xiaomi 14 Pro in the Chinese market. Here is a look at the specifications, features, and price of the device.

Design and Display

Starting from the front, the main highlight of the Nubai Z60 Ultra is its display, which offers a truly full-screen viewing experience. Like its competitors, the display is flanked with slim bezels, and in addition, it does not have a camera cutout as it is equipped with an under-display camera. With ZTE’s fifth-generation under-display camera technology onboard, it promises to deliver even better front camera performance despite being placed under the display.

The Nubian Z60 Ultra will come in three variants: Star Collector’s Edition, Galaxy, and Star Glory colors. The Starry Sky Collector’s Edition features a distinctive back panel featuring a 3D starry sky design built with micro-etching technology Meanwhile, the Galaxy and Star Glory color variants incorporate AG frosting technology to create an intriguing blend of matte and bright finishes. In addition, it comes with an IP68-rated dustproof and water-resistant chassis. It weighs 246 grams, and has a thickness of 8.78mm.

The Nubia Z60 Ultra is equipped with a 6.8-inch BOE Q9+ OLED display that produces a 1.5K resolution of 2480 x 1116 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. It also offers a 1200Hz instantaneous touch sampling rate, 2160Hz PWM high-frequency dimming, local peak brightness of 1500 nits, 10-bit color depth, and a 100 percent DCI-P3 color gamut. For security, it is equipped with an in-screen fingerprint scanner.

Specifications and Camera

Under the hood, the Nubia Z60 Ultra is equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, with options of up to 24 GB of LPDDR5x RAM and a whopping 1 TB of UFS 4.0 storage. It is backed by a 6,000mAh silicone carbon anode battery, which is said to hold more energy without increasing the device’s weight. The device comes with support for 80W wired charging. There is no support for wireless charging on the device.

On the rear, a powerful triple-camera system steals the spotlight, comprising a 50-megapixel Sony IMX800 primary camera with an 18mm focal length, a 50-megapixel OmniVision OV50E ultra-wide lens with a 35mm focal length, and a 64-megapixel OV64B periscope telephoto lens offering 3x optical zoom and an 85mm focal length. All three cameras come with optical image stabilization (OIS) and support 4K 120fps video recording. For selfies, it has a 12-megapixel under-display camera equipped with its display chip and an AI deep-sensing engine.

The Z60 Ultra runs on My OS 14-based Android 14. It comes with other features, such as dual SIM, 5G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, dual-frequency GPS, an IR blaster, NFC, a USB-C (USB 3.1) port, an x-axis linear motor, and dual speakers.

Report: Oppo Find X7 series will not have a Pro model

By

Rajesh Regmi

Dec 19, 2023

The upcoming Oppo Find X7 series has been in the rumor mill for a good while now and so far leaks have pointed to three devices in the lineup — a vanilla Find X7, a Find X7 Pro, and a Find X7 Ultra model. But a new leak now suggests that the Find X7 series will not have a Pro model.

The source for the leak is Digital Chat Station, who is a fairly well-known tipster in the tech space. However, the original post where the tipster shared this information has now been deleted.

Although the Find X7 series will not have a Pro model, the tipster suggests the lineup will still be populated by three models. There will be Find X7, Find X7 Ultra, and Find X7 Ultra Satellite Communication models instead.

As you may have guessed by the name, the two Ultra models will only be distinguished by the satellite communication feature, a detail consistent with Oppo’s confirmation of this feature in the Find X7 series.

The leak also says all the models in the lineup will have a 5000mAh battery with 100W charging support, while the Ultra models will also enjoy 50W wireless charging support.

Oppo-Find-X7-Render1 — Oppo Find X7 series leaked poster.

Notably, previous rumors have also highlighted similarities in specifications between the Pro and Ultra models. For instance, both devices are said to feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, alongside a quad-camera setup consisting of 50MP sensors for the main, ultrawide, and two telephoto lenses. So we guess Oppo might have decided to technically launch only two devices in the series.

The tipster also shared display details for the Find X7 and X7 Ultra earlier today. The Find X7 will enjoy a 6.78-inch BOE 8T LTPO display with a 1.5K resolution. On the other hand, the Find X7 Ultra will have a larger 6.82-inch BOE 8T LTPO screen with 2K resolution.

We are expecting the Find X7 series to launch early next year, but nothing is confirmed as of now. We will keep you updated on any new developments.

Dec 19, 2023

Huawei recently confirmed that the Nova 12 series of smartphones will be announced on Dec. 26 in China. Interested customers can currently place pre-orders for the devices through Huawei JD.com’s official flagship store. The listing confirms that the pre-sale of the Nova 12 lineup will begin at 16:08pm (local time) on Dec. 26 in China. Following a strategy similar to the Huawei Mate 60 series, the Nova 12 series will be part of the Pioneer Plan, allowing users to reserve their devices ahead of the official release date.

Huawei Nova 12 series reservations begin

The Nova 12 lineup is said to include four models, such as the Nova 12 Vitality Edition (or Nova 12 Lite), Nova 12, Nova 12 Pro, and Nova 12 Ultra. Each model is expected to cater to different price ranges, with the Vitality Edition likely to be priced at around 1,000 Yuan, the standard version targeting the 2,000 Yuan price range, and the Pro and Ultra versions positioned at the 3,000 Yuan and 4,000 Yuan price range, respectively.

In terms of hardware, it is reported that the Nova 12 Vitality Edition and Nova 12 are said to be 4G models powered by Snapdragon chipsets. The Nova 12 is said to have the Snapdragon 778G 4G chip and support 66W fast charging.

The Nova 12 Pro and Nova 12 Ultra are likely to feature an under-clocked version of the Kirin 9000s chip. For those who don’t know, the homegrown Kirin 9000s was first seen powering the Mate 60 series, which debuted in September and October of this year. It is speculated that the Nova 12 Ultra will also offer two-way satellite communication.

A recent report has already leaked the key specifications of all four devices, along with their configurations and prices. The report also claims that the brand is also working on the Huawei Pocket S2 flip-style foldable phone, but there is no official confirmation on whether it will debut with the Nova 12 lineup. Contradictory reports also suggest that the Pocket S2’s launch has been postponed to 2024.

iPhone 15 Pro struggles to maintain 30fps with Resident Evil 4 Remake

Dec 19, 2023

Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro series has been marketed as a powerhouse for gaming, boasting strong performance in AAA games like Resident Evil Village. However, recent tests conducted on the upcoming Resident Evil 4 Remake reveal a less-than-optimal gaming experience on the iPhone 15 Pro, however, the M2 powered iPad Pro ran the game fairly well.

Apple’s push into gaming market meets challenges as Resident Evil 4 Remake shows imperfection on iPhone 15 Pro

MrMacRight conducted performance tests comparing the iPhone 15 Pro, M1 iPad, and M2 iPad with a focus on “Resident Evil 4: Remastered.” The results, as uploaded in a video, indicate that the iPhone 15 Pro struggled to deliver a satisfactory gaming performance. The game, running at a resolution of 1560×720 with MetalFX sharpening technology enabled, consistently fell short of the capped 30 FPS (frames per second) on iOS.

While simpler scenes maintained a relatively stable frame rate, reaching close to 30 FPS, more intense scenarios such as combat caused a significant drop, plunging below 25 FPS and, in some instances, as low as 20 FPS. The graphics experienced severe stuttering during these moments, substantially impacting the overall gaming experience, particularly when using a sniper rifle.

In contrast to Resident Evil Village’s successful adaptation to the iPhone, the iOS version of Resident Evil 4 Remake lacks customizable settings and relies on preset graphics. Notably, the much-anticipated ray tracing feature, previously emphasized by Apple, is notably absent.

One prominent factor contributing to the iPhone 15 Pro’s subpar performance is likely heat dissipation issues. The device experienced rapid temperature increases during testing, triggering a reduction in frequency limit and exacerbating stuttering problems. Interestingly, while the iPhone 15 Pro faced challenges, the iPad Pro equipped with the M2 chip showcased superior performance. Running the game at a higher resolution with a more stable frame rate, the iPad Pro emerged as a more reliable option.

Dec 19, 2023

The Poco X6 Pro 5G might be launching globally in January 2024. While Poco hasn’t made an official announcement yet, a report by xiaomiui.net suggests that the company may launch the Poco X6 Pro 5G smartphone in the last week of January.

The phone popped up on Xiaomi’s internal test servers running HyperOS suggesting a launch could be imminent.

The rumor is further strengthened by the fact that the Poco X6 Pro has also appeared on certification websites like FCC, NBTC, IMEI, and BIS.

Speaking of the FCC, it revealed some interesting details. The X6 Pro will come in three storage options, and surprisingly, the build materials differ between them. Both the 8GB+256GB and 12GB+512GB versions will have plastic frames, while the other 12GB+512GB variant gets a fancy PU frame.

Rumors suggest the X6 Pro is essentially a rebranded Redmi K70E. If that’s true, we can expect a gorgeous 6.67-inch 1.5K OLED display with an 1800 nits peak brightness and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it will come with Dimensity 8300 Ultra SoC paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage.

Camera-wise, the Poco X6 Pro might pack a triple-lens setup on the back. The main sensor will be a 64-megapixel sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS) for sharp, steady shots. Joining it will be an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera and a 2-megapixel macro camera. For selfies and video calls, there will be a 16-megapixel front-facing camera.

Likewise, keeping the lights on will be a 5500mAh battery with impressive 90W fast charging support.

While the Poco X6 Pro’s global launch date remains unconfirmed, the January timeline and increasing leaks suggest it won’t be long before we can get our hands on this phone. Stay tuned for the latest updates as we keep you informed on any new developments.

Apple explores Creative Solutions to Overcome Apple Watch Sales Ban

By

Aditya Rasik

-

Dec 19, 2023

Certain Apple Watch imports were prohibited after the US International Trade Commission (ITC) found in October that Apple had violated Masimo’s patents for a blood oxygen sensor. According to Bloomberg, Apple engineers are “racing” to change the algorithms used for the blood oxygen sensor in the Apple Watch to avoid having to stop selling the watch.

Apple said earlier today that it will stop selling the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 in the United States from December 21. The sources who talked to Bloomberg stated that engineers are reportedly changing how oxygen saturation is calculated and how users receive the data. These adjustments are likely to eliminate technology that is purportedly infringing on Masimo patents.

This action aligns with Apple’s announcement that it is “pursuing a range of legal and technical options” to ensure that sales of Apple Watch can get back on track as quickly as feasible. Hardware covered by Masimo’s patents powers the Apple Watch blood oxygen sensor, and Masimo thinks that a software update won’t be sufficient to resolve the patent infringements. According to Masimo, “the hardware needs to change,” as reported by Bloomberg.

However, the company appears to believe that a software-based solution will be enough, as a representative informed Bloomberg that it is working on submitting a workaround. Given that Apple will need to test the modifications, it seems doubtful that a software update will be released before the end of sales. Updates to the hardware would take at least a few months.

Apple plans a $17 billion rescue for Watch Business to avoid ban in the US

Now, the company has taken the initiative to prepare for compliance with the ITC’s ruling, even if the White House has until December 25 to decide. The Watch Series 9 and the Watch Ultra 2 will no longer be available for purchase at stores in the US from December 21 at 2:00 PM Pacific Time. Additionally, online sales will also stop after December 24.

However, The Apple Watch SE will still be available in other nations in addition to the Apple Watch as it is not equipped with a blood oxygen sensor. The business plans to appeal the ITC’s decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on December 26 if a motion to reconsider is not given.

The following was the statement released by Apple earlier today:

A Presidential Review Period is in progress regarding an order from the U.S. International Trade Commission on a technical intellectual property dispute pertaining to Apple Watch devices containing the Blood Oxygen feature. While the review period will not end until December 25, Apple is preemptively taking steps to comply should the ruling stand. This includes pausing sales of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 from Apple.com starting December 21, and from Apple retail locations after December 24. The decision does not impact sales of the devices in other countries at this time.

Apple's teams work tirelessly to create products and services that empower users with industry-leading health, wellness, and safety features. Apple strongly disagrees with the order and is pursuing a range of legal and technical options to ensure that Apple Watch is available to customers. Should the order stand, Apple will continue to take all measures to return Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 to customers in the U.S. as soon as possible.

A recent report claimed that the Magic 6 will support wireless charging.

Update: New report claims that the lineup will not include the Find X7 Pro model.

Original story continues…

Oppo is reportedly working on three flagship phones dubbed the Find X7, the Find X7 Pro, and the Find X7 Ultra for the Chinese market. Reports have revealed that the Find X7 will feature the Dimensity 9300 chipset, whereas the X7 Pro and X7 Ultra will come equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. In a new Weibo post, tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed the display specifications of the Find X7 and X7 Ultra.

Find X7 series display details leaked

As per the leaker, the Find X7 will have a 6.78-inch BOE 8T LTPO display that offers a 1.5K resolution of 2780 x 1264 pixels.

Both screens employ 2160Hz PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to reduce flicker and eye strain. For higher brightness, both displays support 3Pulse/1Pulse DC dimming.

Imagine a weekend where you can bike through the countryside and then, without skipping a beat, glide onto a lake, all with the same vehicle. This isn’t a scene from a futuristic movie; it’s now a reality, thanks to BeTriton’s latest creation. The company, known for pushing the boundaries of e-bike innovation, has just upped the ante with its new dual-purpose e-bike trailer.

The trailer can be attached to most e-bikes

The original Z-Triton was impressive, no doubt, but it was a standalone vehicle. BeTriton’s new model, however, transforms the concept by making it an add-on to your existing e-bike. This trailer, which can be attached to most e-bikes, is particularly suited for the more robust models. It’s like turning your regular bike into a water-ready vessel with just a simple addition!

Here’s the cool part: on land, it’s a sleek trailer, but on water, it expands into a spacious boat, offering plenty of room for two. Picture a romantic date, floating on a quiet lake, or a solo adventure amidst nature. The BeTriton Trailer isn’t just versatile; it’s a doorway to new experiences.

Let’s talk specs for a moment. The trailer is 1.4 meters wide, so you’ll need to be mindful on narrow paths. But once you hit the water, its 2.4 by 4.5-meter size provides ample space. Powered by an electric motor and two hefty batteries, it promises a fair range and speed, perfect for leisurely explorations.

But here’s a heads-up: quality and innovation like this don’t come cheap. The BeTriton Trailer starts at about $10,807, and the full package with all the bells and whistles goes for around $13,427. It’s an investment, for sure, but think of the doors it opens for adventure.

In a world where we’re constantly seeking new ways to connect with nature and escape the hustle of daily life, the BeTriton e-bike trailer is more than just a product. It’s a symbol of innovation, freedom, and the endless possibilities that lie where the road meets the water.

In a landmark deal, Nio, a leading Chinese electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer, has secured a significant investment of $2.2 billion from CYVN Holdings, an arm of the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority. This investment marks a pivotal moment not only for Nio but also for the global EV industry, signifying the first major Middle Eastern investment in China’s EV sector.

CYVN Holdings will secure a 20.1% stake in the company

Nio, known for its high-end electric cars, stands among China’s top three EV producers. With this deal, CYVN Holdings will own a 20.1% stake in Nio, reflecting a strong vote of confidence in the company’s future. This investment also brings CYVN two seats on Nio’s board, giving them a substantial influence over the company’s direction.

This move by CYVN Holdings is more than just a financial transaction. It represents a strategic alignment of interests and a shared vision for a greener, more sustainable future in transportation. William Bin Li, Nio’s CEO, expressed his enthusiasm for CYVN’s support and vision, highlighting Nio’s commitment to enhancing its brand, sales, service capabilities, and investment in core technologies.

Nio’s journey has been marked by challenges and achievements. Despite not having turned a profit since its inception in 2014, Nio remains a key player in the competitive EV landscape, which includes over 200 manufacturers in mainland China. The company, along with its peers Xpeng and Li Auto, faces new competition from tech firms like Xiaomi and Baidu entering the EV space.

Interestingly, Nio is also embracing automation in a big way. Aiming to trim its workforce by a third by 2027, Nio plans to replace many roles with robots. This strategic move towards automation is expected to boost efficiency and reduce costs, aligning with the industry’s trajectory towards smart, efficient manufacturing.

Nio’s partnership with CYVN Holdings is more than a financial lifeline; it’s a strategic alliance that positions Nio to navigate the competitive and fast-evolving world of electric vehicles. With this significant backing, Nio is poised to reinforce its status as a leader in the EV revolution, charting a course towards a more sustainable and technologically advanced future in automotive transport.

A new product known as M1 smart ring has been launched and it can monitor several vitals and activities. It is designed to offer continuous monitoring of a slew of vital parameters and activities. Even though smart rings are an evolving trend, the affordable price of the M1 could further spur demand for this product.

Features

There are several smart ring brands currently in the market, although the number of manufacturers is still quite small. The product is marketed under different names by different companies.

The M1 smart ring is being promoted with an extensive range of functions. It offers continuous heart rate measurement, blood oxygen saturation measurement, and intensity during sporting activities. Post-activity evaluation is possible with the M1 smart ring via its companion app. It also has an integrated pedometer. It should be noted, though, that the product’s capabilities have not been fully established independently.

Precision and accuracy of the measurements of the M1 smart ring can be knotty. For example, the precise measurement of blood oxygen saturation is more complex than heart rate measurement, meaning that the precision of blood oxygen measurement may be relatively lower.

The M1 smart ring can be used when swimming because it is water-resistant up to 5 ATM. The smart ring has a battery life of 5 days while the gadget weighs 3.5g.

Pricing & Availability

As for the pricing, the M1 smart ring is available on Geekbuying for $38. The offer comes with free shipping from China to the US within 45 days.

Huawei is continuing its work on HarmonyOS Next, the operating system at the core of its latest smartphones, such as the Mate 60 series. The potential of this OS is so high, it’s already considered as a significant threat to iOS and Android. However, HarmonyOS has a serious disadvantage compared to its competitors. It lacks as extensive application support, partly due to its relatively young age and the increasing pressure from the United States.

To overcome these challenges, the company is taking steps that bring more apps to its store. For example, we recently mentioned the significance of the McDonald’s app coming to AppGallery. However, aware that this is not enough, Huawei shook hands with MiHoYo to develop games exclusively for HarmonyOS. Here are the details…

MiHoYo Announces Native HarmonyOS App Development, Bringing Popular Games to Huawei Devices

Huawei is making efforts to boost the popularity of HarmonyOS by entering into a collaboration agreement with the Chinese game developer MiHoYo. According to the deal, MiHoYo, known for developing popular games such as Genshin Impact, will be designing exclusive games specifically for the HarmonyOS operating system. Console manufacturers, like Sony, have been using this strategy for a while. They boost their sales by having games that you can only play on their console, like Spider-Man.

The agreement will not only cover exclusive games but also include existing titles. For example, Genshin Impact will gain native HarmonyOS support and operate with much higher performance than before. Additionally, with cross-platform support, it will be possible to play simultaneously with Android and iOS users. These developments are expected to benefit both Huawei and MiHoYo, attracting more app developers to HarmonyOS.

It is still unclear when the new MiHoYo&Huawei games will be released. However, the partnership is a positive sign for the future of HarmonyOS gaming.
