Microsoft is one of the world’s biggest tech companies, and its products and services are used by billions of people around the world. For example, many government agencies and private businesses in various countries use Microsoft’s products, such as Windows operating systems, Office productivity suite, and Azure cloud computing platform. While this situation gives the company a special access, Microsoft is also doing its part. The company discovered 15 serious flaws in the CODESYS V3 SDK that could turn off power plants.
Microsoft finds vulnerabilities it says could be used to shut down power plants
Recently, Microsoft found some weak spots in a tool that many factories and power plants use. This tool, called CODESYS V3 SDK, helps factories and power plants run smoothly. The danger is, if some “bad guys” find and use these weak spots, they could cause big problems. They could turn off a whole power plant or mess with how things run.
Microsoft said that while it’s hard to do this, if someone manages to, it could lead to serious damage. Now, the good news is that Microsoft told Codesys (the company that makes the tool) about these problems. Codesys made a fix, and many factories and power plants have likely already put this fix in place. But for those that haven’t, they need to do it quickly.
However, to use these weak spots, bad guys need to know a lot about the tool and need a special kind of access. A while ago, there was another weak spot (CVE-2019-9013) that, if not fixed, could give them this access. So, factories and power plants need to make sure they’ve fixed that too. But, these types of attacks are rare. And with many factories and power plants likely having fixed the weak spots, big problems seem less likely. However, we are likely to receive bad news in the near future.
Keychron has officially announced the Q14 Pro dual-mode customized mechanical keyboard in China. The announcement was made via a Weibo post from the official account of the brand. The new mechanical keyboard has a number area on the left with a reserved space for a mouse.
The design of the Keychron Q14 Pro offers several customization options for the keyboard. It features the Alice arrangement layout which highlights an ergonomic design. A sideways inclination is also added that allows the user to tilt the keyboard from the middle to both sides. The angular elevation helps to relieve the pressure caused by the hands and forearms and keeps the wrists and forearms in a consistent posture. The design also allows users to tap the keyboard with a natural and relaxed posture.
According to Keychron, the Q14 Pro mechanical keyboard uses its own K Pro switch body, that is, red, brown, and K Pro banana body. It also features KSA height PBT two-color injection keycaps. The internal design of the Q14 Pro utilizes the Gasket structure and PC positioning board.
The Keychron Q14 Pro supports both Bluetooth and wired connections. It also supports the QMK/VIA open-source key-changing function that is originally present in the Keychron traditional keyboard. The new mechanical keyboard is compatible with Mac and Windows operating systems. The original price of the Q14 Pro mechanical keyboard is 938 yuan (~$129) but it is currently offered at a discounted price of 888 yuan (~$122).

Google is rolling out a nifty new AI-powered feature for Android and iOS Chrome users. The company’s new Search Generative Experience (SGE) is getting a significant update summarizing articles you search online.
Google Chrome SGE: What’s it all about?
The tech giant announced that SGE can summarize your search results. In other words, users won’t have to read through a whole article and will get a short paragraph that details the entire content. SGE could already summarize results, but now, it can also offer functionality even after you click on the link. As per official notes, Google Chrome’s new feature is an early experiment.
Users can opt-in for this feature by enabling the Search Labs program. The company is first releasing this feature on the Google app on Android and iOS. Although, it is also actively working on bringing it to the Chrome browser on desktop PCs in the upcoming days. Talking about how SGE works, the feature utilizes AI to form key points from an article after you tap an icon at the bottom of the screen.
But keep in mind that the feature is only supported on articles that are freely available to the public. In other words, paywalled articles won’t be summarized. CEO Sundar Pichai stated that users have shared positive feedback regarding this technology and added that this is the future of how Search will work over time.

After launching the Redmi TV A32, A43, and A65 earlier in July, Redmi has now introduced the TV A50 2024 model in China. The new model comes as a refresh over 2020’s TV by the same name. It brings a 50-inch display and offers a 4K resolution. The company has also packed the TV with powerful speakers and the MIUI TV operating system. Let’s take a closer look at its specs and features.
Redmi TV A50 2024 Specifications
Redmi TV A50 2024 (don’t worry, we are still in 2023) comes with a sleek design. It features a metal build with no bezels on the display. The 50-inch panel on the television can produce 4K resolution and 1.07 billion colors. The A50 2024 model has a total of 20 watts of speaker output, with 10 watts per speaker. This is a decent amount of power for a TV, and should be sufficient for providing clear and loud sound.
It also comes with dual-duct bass enhancement, meaning it uses two bass ports to improve the low-frequency response of the speakers. The TV is powered by a quad-core A35 processor, accompanied by 1.5GB of memory and 8GB of storage space. It supports a 2.4G wireless network.

Great news for LG OLED PC monitor owners and those considering purchasing an OLED monitor! LG has just announced that their standard two-year warranty for monitors will now also cover any burn-in effects that have occurred or might occur in the future from normal usage.
As per LG’s statement, everyday uses like desktop applications and gaming fall under “normal” usage. If a scenario arises where burn-in, such as the Windows taskbar, a program icon, or in-game HUD elements, becomes permanent and regular automatic cleaning or maintenance methods no longer resolve the issue, you are entitled to receive repair or replacement under the provided warranty duration.
LG previously had a policy of excluding burn-in from their OLED monitor warranty, but the company has now reversed this decision. Currently, the brand covers OLED burn-in in the US and regions of the EU. That being said, this policy change does not apply to their OLED TVs.
This policy change is likely to encourage more gamers to go for OLED gaming monitors rather than IPS or VA panels. As we know, OLED screens are better than IPS and VA screens in a few big ways. One cool thing is that OLED screens can show really dark blacks and very lively colors because they can turn off each individual pixel. This makes them look way better than IPS or VA screens that aren’t capable of doing this. Also, OLED screens look good even if you’re looking from the side. So, if you’re watching with friends or family, the picture still looks great. OLED screens are great for gaming and applications where smooth motion is important because they have fast response times. They also have a wider range of colors than IPS or VA screens, which makes the visual content more dynamic and lifelike.
The competition in the electric vehicle market is going strong. But when we look at the market shares, there’s an interesting picture. Despite having over a hundred years of history and industry experience, European and American car giants are lagging behind newer companies likeTesla and BYD in the EV market. Traditional companies are struggling to catch up. Still, Mercedes seems eager to lead this change. The much-awaited 2025 Mercedes CLA EV has been seen. Here are the details…
Mercedes CLA EV to Reveal Concept at Munich Motor Show, Aims for 400-Mile Range
Mercedes-Benz is expanding its product range. Recent spy photos have revealed the company’s next big project, the first all-electric CLA-Class sedan. Like all spy photos, the car was heavily camouflaged. Still, we can get some ideas about it. For example, the front end features a wide grille with a Mercedes-Benz star emblem in the center, flanked by slim headlights.

The side profile is similar to the current CLA-Class, with a sloping roofline and a coupe-like silhouette. The rear end features a sloping trunk lid and slim taillights. Also in the highly anticipated model is its lack of exhaust pipes, which confirms again that it’s fully electric. The vehicle is probably going to be built on Mercedes’ new MMA platform. This platform is made for hybrid and electric cars. Many new Mercedes cars will use this platform in the next few years.
source: carscoops
Mercedes has not yet released any official details about the CLA EV, but it’s expected to have a range of around 400 miles (644 km). It’s also likely to be offered in rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations. The CLA EV is expected to be unveiled later this year, and it’s likely to go on sale in early 2024. However, it is expected to be revealed this September at the International Motor Show in Munich and it will compete against a growing number of electric luxury sedans, including the Tesla Model 3, the Audi e-tron GT, and the Porsche Taycan.
Oppo seems to be working on two new A series smartphones. The Oppo A38 and A18 were recently spotted on TDRA. Now, the former has bagged Malaysia’s SIRIM and Indonesia’s NBTC certification, hinting we might soon get a new mid-ranger. Both listings don’t reveal anything interesting but we do know a thing or two based on the moniker.
OPPO A38 smartphone appeared on Malaysia’s SIRIM certification website with the model number, CPH2579. The handset with the same model number was spotted on the NBTC website. Previous listings have revealed the device will support 4G connectivity with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. It will run ColorOS 13.1 based on Android 13 out of the box.
It could pack a 4880mAh battery, which is likely to be marketed as 5000mAh. Oppo A38 is expected to be a budget smartphone with just enough specifications. Currently, there’s no official confirmation from the brand but we can expect the device to launch in the coming months.
Judging by the name, Oppo A38 will be the successor to last year’s Oppo 36. That device debuted as a budget offering with a Snapdragon 680 SoC under the hood. It sports a 6.56-inch LCD panel with a resolution of 1612 x 720 pixels (HD+), a 90Hz refresh rate, and a 180Hz touch sampling rate. Fueling the smartphone is a 5,000mAh battery with support for 10W charging.
It features a dual camera setup on the rear that consists of 13 MP (wide) + 2 MP (depth). For clicking selfies, you get a single 8MP shooter. Oppo A38 might feature some improvements over its predecessor. So, you may see a better camera setup and probably a new chipset.
Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S24 series early next year, likely in January or February. Anticipation for this series is growing as leaks begin to surface. A reliable tipster Yogesh Brar has shared some key specifications for the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra on platform X (formerly Twitter), shedding light on its potential features.
Brar hints that the S24 Ultra will feature similar quad-camera setup like its predecessor S23 Ultra. This includes a primary 200MP camera, accompanied by a 12MP ultrawide lens, a 50MP telephoto lens, and a 10MP periscope telephoto lens. Additionally, a 12MP front camera is also expected.
Processor:
S24 Ultra might run on either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or the Exynos 2400 chipsets. A previous report suggests that the Exynos 2400 processor is expected in European and Southeast Asian regions, while the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor version might be offered in American markets.
Previous models like the Galaxy S23, S23+, and S23 Ultra only used the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. However, the upcoming Galaxy S23 FE might be available in two versions: Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Exynos 2200.
Battery:
Brar suggests a 5000mAh battery for the S24 Ultra, similar to its predecessor. While it may support a 45W fast charge, there’s talk about using electric vehicle battery technology. If true, this could boost the fast charge capacity up to 65W.
Design:
The design might not see a significant overhaul. It’s said to resemble the S23 Ultra but might swap the aluminum frame for a sturdier titanium one.
Display:
There have been whispers about notable display enhancements for the S24 Ultra. A leak from another tipster, Ice Universe, suggests the phone could feature an upgraded M13 OLED screen. This might offer brighter visuals, possibly reaching 2000 nits, and better energy efficiency.
While more details will likely emerge as the launch date approaches, these initial leaks provide an exciting glimpse into the capabilities of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. Stay tuned for further updates as the tech world eagerly awaits this anticipated release.
Twitter is going through a fascinating change. For example, after Elon Musk bought it, the platform made several controversial decisions and the platform is now called “X”. This move might sees as a thrown away that almost 20 years of brand reputation. Even though there are constant criticisms, Musk doesn’t plan on stopping. Thankfully, not all his decisions are extreme, some of them is good. Now paid users get a new tab to showcase their posts with “Highlights” tab. Here are the details…
Paid X (Twitter) users can now showcase their best tweets with new “Highlights” tab
As you know, Twitter launched a subscription service called Blue not long ago. Nowadays, this service is also known as X Premium. For a monthly or yearly fee, you get various benefits. Some of the perks include more ads, the ability to edit tweets, and even a share of Twitter’s ad revenue. Now, there’s a new feature called the “Highlights” tab.
Twitter is a platform where new content always stands out. However, users have wanted a way to highlight important or popular tweets for a long time. The company introduced “pinned tweets” a few years ago. With this, users could display any tweet at the top of their profile, no matter its date. Still, this wasn’t enough for many people. The “Highlights” tab might be the solution they’re looking for.
The ‘Highlights’ tab lets paid members show their best posts to followers. It’s great for artists, writers, and reporters, or for sharing about a special topic or event. To use it, paid members tap the three dots on a post and pick “Add to Highlights”. They can decide where to put the post in the Highlights. In addition to the Highlights tab, X has also made TweetDeck a subscriber-only product. This is another move by the company to get more people to pay for its premium service.
Recently Vivo officially teased the launch of a new V-series smartphone in India. The upcoming offering is already confirmed to be the Vivo V29e. It will arrive as the successor to the V23e that debuted in February last year. Notably, the brand had skipped the E moniker in the V25 and V27 series smartphones in the country. Ahead of the official launch, Vivo has started revealing details of the V29e in the form of teasers on Twitter. The brand has also put up a dedicated microsite of the device on its official website.
Vivo V29e key specs teased along with pricing
Vivo is yet to reveal the exact launch date of the V29e smartphone in India. Considering that the brand has started sharing teasers, we can expect it to debut in the coming weeks. Additionally, the device is confirmed to be available from Flipkart as the e-commerce platform has also put up a microsite.
As per the microsites, the Vivo V29e has a dual-toned back panel where the left side has a glossy finish with subtle geometrical shapes and the other half seems to have a leather texture. There are two camera rings accentuated in the Gold color at the top left of the back panel. The device is confirmed to feature color-changing rear panel technology that is said to transition rich hues to more captivating glamor. The Vivo microsite shows the Maroon colored back panel changing to Black. However, this will only be available on the Artistic Red variant and not the Artistic Blue model.
On the front, the Vivo V29e is confirmed to sport a center-aligned punch-hole 3D display with a 58.7-degree curvature. It will also feature a 120Hz refresh rate. The device is touted to be the slimmest phone with a 3D curved screen in the Rs 25,000-30,000 price segment. We expect this pricing to be for the base configuration. The smartphone has a slim profile measuring just 0.757mm thin.
The Vivo V29e is teased to feature a 50MP selfie camera with eye autofocus technology for clear and detailed shots. The smartphone is confirmed to have a 64MP primary rear camera with OIS support for stable and brighter photos at night.
Narwal has introduced two robot vacuum and mop models, the J4 and J4 Lite. The J4 is the flagship model, priced at 4299 yuan ($589), while the J4 Lite is more affordable at 3299 yuan ($452). The Narwal J4 robot is available in two versions: a manual water tank version and an automatic water supply version.
Narwal J4 and J4 Lite Robot Vacuum key features:
One problem many users have with robot vacuums is the struggle with hair getting tangled. The J4 has tackled this by using a strong suction of 7800Pa and a special U-pipe air system. Its roller brush can easily remove hair, making it great for households with pets or long-haired members. It has passed tests showing it can pick up almost all the hair and leaves no hair behind on the brush.
Mopping is another key feature of the J4. It can adjust its pressure based on the floor type to clean well without harming the floor. If the mop pad gets very dirty, the robot can clean it by itself. It has a unique dirt detection system to ensure thorough cleaning. The J4 also introduces a new kind of dustbin which combines with the filter. This helps dry out the waste quickly and reduces bacteria growth. Plus, there’s no need to transfer trash, which avoids extra mess.
The base station of the J4 vacuum cleaner is loaded with features. It can wash the mop cloth, refill water, add detergent, and dry the cloth with hot air. It can even clean itself. The robot can be controlled through an app where you can specify rooms and add furniture details.
Mapping is crucial for these robots. The J4 uses the IPS4.0 Whale Sense Perception System with three lasers to measure space and avoid obstacles efficiently. It also can remember dirty areas and clean them multiple times if needed. Edges and corners get special attention too. For carpets, the J4 can adjust its suction and avoid long carpets.
The J4 Lite, though cheaper, still has a strong 6800Pa suction and can handle hair well. Its dustbin can hold up to 1L and has an integrated filter.
Ulefone continues its legacy of excellence with the much-anticipated Armor 22, the latest addition to its flagship Armor Series. Building upon the foundation set by its predecessor, the Armor 21, the Armor 22 presents a seamless blend of familiar features and innovative enhancements. At its core, the Ulefone Armor 22 boasts standout attributes that redefine smartphone expectations – industry-leading camera capabilities and a sleek, rugged design.
In the realm of design, the Armor 22 stands as a testament to engineering prowess. With a remarkably slim profile, measuring a mere 0.59 inches, it defies conventional notions of ruggedness. Customized stripes on the rear shell exude a modern mecha-inspired aesthetic, while square grid frames, housing the cutting-edge camera modules, imbue a sense of technological sophistication. Complementing this design are anti-slip metal strips, meticulously incorporated to provide an ergonomic grip that is second to none.
Camera enthusiasts are in for a treat with the Armor 22’s camera-focused upgrade. A dual main camera system, featuring a 64MP wide-angle lens and a 64MP night vision lens, propels photography into a realm of artistic brilliance. The Sony IMX686 wide camera, with its ƒ/1.89 aperture and 1/1.7″ sensor size, unleashes a flood of light into its sensor, yielding images of unparalleled clarity and detail. Noteworthy is the industry-leading 64MP night vision camera, driven by the Ulefone NightElf Ultra 2.0 algorithm, showcasing advanced stabilization and minimal interference.
Beyond the visual feast, the Armor 22 endures, crafted to withstand the rigors of real-life challenges. Its IP68/IP69K protection rating ensures resistance against water, dust, and extreme temperatures. While it thrives on its slim aesthetics, it remains unwavering in its rugged performance.
Ulefone’s Armor 22 beckons not as a mere smartphone, but as an embodiment of modern ingenuity. With its dual camera marvel and a design that blends form with function, it heralds a new era of possibilities in the rugged smartphone landscape.
The phone flaunts a 6.58-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz high refresh rate for lifelike visuals, empowered by the MediaTek Helio G96 chipset and Android 13. An IR blaster and gloves mode adds to daily convenience.
While a significant departure from the Armor 21’s colossal 9600mAh battery, the Armor 22 boasts a substantial 6600mAh battery. The 8GB RAM and 128GB storage variant expands to 16GB of RAM and 512GB storage, ensuring seamless multitasking. A 16MP front-facing camera and underwater mode enhance its photography prowess.
The Armor 22 offers color options of All Black and Green. Anticipate attractive pre-order discounts via the AliExpress Official Store post-launch. You can visit the Ulefone Official website for further insights and early access to the smartphone.
