Upcoming Smartphones: Xiaomi 13 Ultra, Realme 11 Pro, and more

Jun 2, 2023

Android 14 has apparently rolled out a new BatteryManager API on its latest iteration, which let’s you check your smartphone’s battery health. This function would also bring a number of other useful features and insights, so here are all the details.

Android 14 could add a phone battery health checking feature

The news arrives from Esper.io’s Mishaal Rahman who stated that the new APIs are built to offer useful information such as cycle count, charging status, manufacturing date, date of first use, charging policy, and most importantly, the state of battery health. As of right now, the new BatteryManager API is only available on Google’s Pixel smartphones that are running on Android 14 Beta 2 or higher.

Thanks to this API, developer @narektor created an open source battery health app called Batt. This let’s you provide users with battery health statistics. But keep in mind that the data of the battery health provided may not be completely accurate. Although, this does create a framework that implies that Google will eventually release a battery health tracking feature of its own that will likely be found in the Settings app.

Unfortunately, it is also likely that the company may skip the feature entirely on the upcoming Android 14 iteration and add it into Android 15. This feature has been highly requested by many for sometime now, so we can expect it to hit the live built sometime in the future. So stick around for more updates.

The competition is heating up in the virtual reality world. Just days before Apple’s expected reveal of its first mixed reality headset at WWDC 2023, Meta has announced its Quest 3 VR headset. This new headset, which boasts a 40% slimmer profile compared to the Quest 2, is set to launch this fall. A 128 GB version will be available for $499.99 and an unspecified price for the 256GB model. Here are the details…

Meta vs. Apple: The Battle for Mixed Reality Dominance

Meta, has been working on virtual reality for a long time. For instance, the company purchased Oculus VR for $2 billion in March 2014. If we consider that this technology still has some shortcomings today, we could say that nine years is quite old. Since then, the social media giant, which has introduced a few headsets and brought the concept of the Metaverse into our lives, now about to face a very strong competitor.

Apple’s mixed reality headset has long been in the news with ongoing leaks. Although nobody has a clear idea of what it will be like, the consensus is that Apple is expected to succeed in this field. As you know, the tech giant is more interested in being the best at doing something rather than being the first. It seems that this situation may have scared Meta a bit, as they suddenly announced the Quest 3 VR headset in a released video.

Quest 3 Features New Design, Improved Performance, and More for an Immersive VR Experience

At first glance, the Quest 3 doesn’t seem drastically different from its predecessor. However, it actually brings significant innovations in both design and technical terms. According to the company’s claim, the headset is more ergonomic, lighter, and equipped with a more powerful processor and higher resolution. This opens the door for a more comfortable and realistic gaming experience. The Quest 3 is also compatible with Quest 2’s games, allowing users to continue playing their favorite titles on the new headset. Meta also announced a price reduction for the Quest 2 starting from June 4th. The 128 GB model will be available for $299.99 and the 256 GB model will be priced at $349.99.

Schenker‘s renowned gaming brand, XMG, has made an exciting announcement regarding its latest APEX-series laptops.

Uber & Serve Robotics will have a 2,000-Food-Delivery-Robot Fleet Soon

By

-

Jun 2, 2023

In a move set to transform the constantly-evolving food delivery industry, Uber Eats and Serve Robotics have officially announced their plans to introduce robot food delivery services in major cities across the United States starting in 2026. This joint venture aims to revolutionize the way meals are delivered to customers, providing an automated, seamless and efficient experience.

The robots can go 40 kilometres on a single charge

Serve Robotics, an independent company that broke off from Uber’s business, has developed a four-wheeled robot powered by advanced AI technology for precise path planning. With a remarkable battery life of approximately 40 kilometres, these robots can transport packages weighing up to 23 kilograms, effectively catering to a wide range of delivery needs. Each robot is capable of managing multiple orders daily, ensuring swift and reliable service.

Uber has pledged its commitment to achieving a zero-carbon emission delivery platform by 2040, and the integration of robot deliveries plays a pivotal role in this mission. As part of the service, Uber Eats customers will soon have the option to choose robot delivery for their meals. Once the robot reaches the specified destination, the customer can securely retrieve their order by entering a password, ensuring a seamless and safe experience.

Field testing of robot food delivery services has already commenced in California, marking a significant milestone in the journey toward a fully automated delivery system. Building on this success, Uber plans to expand its partnership with Serve Robotics to include additional cities in 2026. San Jose, California, Dallas, Texas, and Vancouver, Canada are among the locations expected to witness the deployment of up to 2,000 delivery robots.

While the introduction of robot food delivery services holds great promise, there are several potential challenges that these robots may face in urban environments. One significant issue is navigating complex city streets and crowded sidewalks. The robots need to safely maneuver through various obstacles such as pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles, while adhering to traffic rules. Additionally, they must accurately identify and reach specific delivery locations, which can be challenging in densely populated areas with high-rise buildings and intricate addresses. Moreover, there is the concern of potential theft or vandalism of the robots and their cargo, which may require robust security measures.

During Computex 2023, Asus unveiled its latest addition to the ROG lineup, featuring expansive gaming displays with 4K resolution. Following suit, ASRock has now entered the scene by introducing the ASRock PG558KF, an enormous 55″ monitor boasting an impressive 8K resolution. Let’s take a closer look at its features.

ASRock PG558KF gaming monitor specs

Boasting its 55-inch display with an impressive 8K resolution, this monitor delivers a stunning visual experience. The flat IPS panel ensures vibrant colors and sharp imagery, resolving at an impressive 7,680 x 4,320 pixels with a 16:9 aspect ratio.

In terms of performance, the PG558KF offers a 60 Hz refresh rate and a 1,200:1 contrast ratio with 252 local dimming zones. While these specifications may seem modest compared to some high-end gaming monitors, it’s worth noting that achieving 8K gaming at a higher refresh rate is currently beyond the capabilities of most modern graphics cards. Moreover, the monitor carries the VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification, capable of reaching a peak brightness of 1,000 nits when viewing HDR content. ASRock specifies a typical maximum brightness of 750 nits.

Connectivity options on the PG558KF are abundant, with two DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.1 ports each. It also features a USB hub equipped with four USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-A downstream ports, along with a USB Type-C upstream port supporting 90 W charging through the USB PD 3.0 protocol.

While pricing and availability details for the PG558KF remain undisclosed at this time, it is expected that ASRock will provide further information later in the year.

Twitter’s Head of Trust and Safety Resigns Amidst Mounting Criticism

By

-

Jun 2, 2023

In a surprising turn of events, Ella Irwin, the head of trust and safety at Twitter, has tendered her resignation. This development adds to the growing concerns surrounding the social media giant’s lax protection measures against harmful content since it was acquired by billionaire Elon Musk in October.

Twitter might face another setback with the departure of Ella Irwin

There could be several factors contributing to Irwin’s decision. It is possible that she may have received a better career opportunity elsewhere or decided to pursue a different professional path aligned with her goals and aspirations. It is also conceivable that there were internal dynamics or strategic disagreements within the company that influenced her decision to step down.

It is crucial to recognize that executive-level resignations can occur in any organization, and the circumstances behind them are often complex and multifaceted. Without further information, it is challenging to ascertain the precise motivations behind Irwin’s departure from Twitter. During her tenure, she played a crucial role in overseeing content moderation efforts. However, her departure signals a potential setback for Twitter’s ongoing battle against harmful and unsuitable content.

Notably, Musk recently announced the appointment of Linda Yaccarino, former NBCUniversal advertising chief, as Twitter’s new CEO. This move indicates Musk’s commitment to repositioning the company and addressing the mounting concerns regarding content moderation and brand safety.

Since Musk’s acquisition, Twitter has embarked on a cost-cutting spree, resulting in significant layoffs. Unfortunately, this has included dedicated employees who were actively engaged in efforts to combat harmful and illegal content, preserve election integrity, and promote accurate information on the platform – which it tried to achieve recently with Community Notes. We’ll see how Twitter’s current decisions shape the future of the company with a different Head of Trust and Safety.

Dell’s effective cost control measures contributed to improved earnings, underlining the company’s ability to navigate turbulent times successfully.

One particular highlight within the report was the performance of Dell’s enterprise PC segment. Sales exceeded expectations, generating substantial revenue and showcasing the company’s strong foothold in the corporate sector. However, the consumer PC business faced headwinds, experiencing a significant decline in sales. Even in China, Dell doesn’t seem to be doing too well.

While Dell’s competitors also struggled with lower-than-expected PC sales, the company remains optimistic about the future. Looking ahead, Dell’s Vice President, Yvonne McGill, revealed that revenue for the upcoming quarter is expected to range between $20.2 billion and $21.2 billion, signalling a potential turning point. As Dell continues to evolve and adapt to changing market dynamics, it will be interesting to see how the company’s future success plans look like.
