Samsung Galaxy M04 Support Page Goes Live in India, Could Be a Rebranded Galaxy A04e

Samsung is reportedly working on a new entry-level smartphone, dubbed Galaxy M04. It was first spotted on Geekbench in July, followed by certification sites like Bluetooth SIG and BIS India. The Korean company is yet to reveal any details about the upcoming handset. However, we can expect the smartphone to launch pretty soon since its support page has now gone live in India. Also, it has been revealed that the Galaxy M04 could be a rebranded Galaxy A04e. Let’s look at the details.

The support page for the Samsung Galaxy M04 has gone live on the company’s official India website (via MySmartPrice). It has been listed with the model number SM-M045F. The handset’s support page does not reveal any specifications. However, the user manual suggests the Galaxy M04 will launch in the country as a rebadged version of the Galaxy A04e, which was launched last month in some regions.

Samsung-Galaxy-A04e-rebranded

Galaxy A04e Specifications

The Galaxy A04e debuted last month (October) with a 6.5-inch PLS LCD panel that offers an HD+ resolution. The display has a waterdrop notch that features a 5-megapixel camera for selfies and video calls. For photography, it has a 13-megapixel primary camera and a 2-megapixel depth sensor on the back.

iPhones Reportedly Transmitted Apple Analytics Data; Class Action Lawsuit Filed

A security researcher has just discovered that Apple analytics data is collected and sent from iPhones, irrespective of the user’s permission. The researcher further says that the amount of data it collects is really shocking.

Known developer and security researcher Tommy Mysk recently discovered a flaw in the privacy of Apple’s software. Mysk had previously reported that Apple apps bypass the VPN connections in order to send data to Apple. He further reported that the Mail app on the Apple Watch was not using the Mail Privacy Protection feature.

Apple

We are all aware that before sending Apple Analytics Data, Apple requests users’ permission. If the permission is disabled, the data should not be communicated to the company, however, that is not the case in this instance. According to reports, the company is gathering Apple Analytics information without the users’ knowledge or consent. In fact, the researcher has said that he could not tell whether the user had opted to accept or reject authorization because there was no difference at all in the data sent.

Mysk claimed that even with consent, the amount and level of data would be excessive because it contained all the information required for device fingerprinting. It should be emphasized that in its developer guidelines, Apple expressly discourages such solutions. Information like your app searches, the adverts you’d seen, how you found the apps you browsed, and even how long you spent on an app’s page were all sent in real time by the App Store app.

A lawsuit has been reportedly filed against the brand in California for breaking privacy norms. Specifically, Apple is charged with breaking the California Invasion of Privacy Act. According to the plaintiff in the lawsuit, Elliot Libman, “Privacy is one of the key problems that Apple utilises to set its devices apart from rivals.” “However, Apple’s privacy guarantees are wholly unreal.”

The handset may feature a 6.2-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display that could offer 1.5K resolution. It may come equipped with a 50MP main camera sensor and run Android 13-based MIUI 14 out of the box.

Recent Issue With Chrome Saved Tab Is Finally Getting a Fix

One of the most widely used browsers out there is Google Chrome. It is also accessible on Windows, Android, and iOS. The majority of users still favor using Google Chrome as their main browser. Countless tabs are open at once for the millions and billions of Chrome users who use the browser globally. But keeping track of all those stored tabs might be a challenge. The Chromium development team has added a new saved tabs feature to cut down on this specific issue. It was a feature that made it simple to manage the saved tabs.

Google Chrome

Later updates made saved tab groups visible in the bookmarks bar, making it simpler to locate them. Its serious shortcoming, however, hindered it from becoming as useful as it may have been. The saved tabs would all disappear whenever you updated or restarted the browser, which was a serious problem. And if the saved tabs are gone after an update or restart, offering this option really makes no sense. But thankfully, the developers have addressed the problem and found a workable solution.

Devs have introduced a new Sync bridge which allows the saved tabs to be saved in the local storage. Therefore, if Chrome gets restarted or updated, the saved tabs would be accessible even after that. A well-known Redditor who follows Chrome-related news found the commit. However, they draw attention to the fact that during a fresh browsing session, saved tab groups can not display in the exact same order as they were initially saved. Chrome devs are already working on a fix and anyway, something is better than nothing.

Though the Reddit user hypothesises that the Chromium team may decide to integrate it with versions 108 or 109, potentially making it accessible to a larger audience of users, the feature currently seems on track to be a part of version 110 of the browser. As a result of this change, more users will undoubtedly benefit from stored tab groups more quickly because tabs can now persist across many browser sessions.

HarmonyOS 3 Public Beta Rolling Out to 4th Batch of Huawei Devices Starting This November

After announcing that the 3-year-old Huawei Mate 30 will receive the latest HarmonyOS 3 stable update, a Huawei online consumer spokesperson has confirmed that the HarmonyOS 3 Public Beta Programme will be open for application for more Huawei devices starting this November.

As reported by ITHome, the spokesperson noted that HarmonyOS 3 Public Beta will be available for the 4th batch of Huawei devices starting this November. Owners of these 3 Huawei smartphones (Huawei Nova 8, Nova 8 Pro, Nova 8 Pro 4G) will be able to apply for HarmonyOS 3 Public Beta by the end of this November, whilst for the Huawei nova 8 SE and Huawei Nova 8 SE Vitality Edition, the HarmonyOS 3 Public Beta will be available starting early 2023.

Besides these 5 Huawei devices, Huawei also earlier announced last week that HarmonyOS 3 Stable had been rolled out to 15 Huawei device models this November. The full list is linked in this article here.

Source: Huawei

For those unfamiliar with Huawei’s HarmonyOS software development rollout, it can be easily explained in 3 easy to read paragraphs.

The HarmonyOS rollout is divided into 3 stages, a closed beta, a public beta, and a stable version rollout. In the closed beta version rollout, Huawei device users can opt-in for early access software development to try out the new features due to be added in the next major software update. Interested participants first need to go to settings and apply for the closed beta programme, and then once Huawei has approved the application, only then the closed beta update will roll out to the user’s device. Normally, only 2000 users will be selected for the closed beta programme.

For the next stage – the HarmonyOS public beta rollout, there is no limit to how many Huawei users can join the programme. Users can opt-in for the update via settings at any time. However, Huawei does suggest users who opt-in for the public beta back up their devices beforehand, as it is still not a stable release. Just like the closed beta, Huawei users can experience upcoming software features before the stable release and the main purpose of releasing a public beta first is to iron out any bugs and stability issues before rolling it out for all users.

In the final stage, HarmonyOS is rolled out to all Huawei device users with a stable version release. The update will include notable features found in the closed and public beta testing, as well as security updates, stability and bug fixes for all Huawei users over the air.

Xiaomi Bone Conduction Headset is now on sale in China

Xiaomi‘s latest Bone conduction headset has officially gone on sale. The product was initially launched last month but was only available to pre-order. The headset is priced at 699 yuan (~$99) and is now available to buy via Jingdong (JD.com).

As the name suggests, the headset uses bone conduction technology to transmit sound. Instead of using air, the technique transmits sound waves along your cheeks. It is the same approach used by sea mammals underwater, and it is thought to be the technique employed by German classical musician Ludwig Van Beethoven after he lost his hearing to produce music. Users can also hear the sound of their surroundings while listening to music using this technology, allowing them to pay attention to the environment at all times.

The vibrator inside the earphone has an unusual track-type design, which improves sound quality. A 360° closed directional sound chamber may also efficiently reduce sound leakage and safeguard privacy.

The new earphones have a Bluetooth 5.2 chip for rapid connectivity. Xiaomi claims the connectivity delay is as low as 86ms. As a result, customers will have a stable connection to the headset while exercising, with no disconnection.
The earphone also has a single battery life of up to 12 hours. It employs a Type-C interface, which is widespread in phone charging cables. Up to two hours of music playback can be obtained from a 5-minute charge.

Xiaomi Bone Conduction headset

The Xiaomi Bone Conduction headset also supports MIUI pop-up quick connection. When the gadget is close to the phone, it is instantly and rapidly paired. It also has IP66 dust and water resistance, which means it can survive wind, rain, and snow.

There is no word as to when it would be launched on the global turf but you can get it right now from Gizmochina’s online store Giztop.

 Realme teases the Buds Air 3S TWS earbuds launching alongside the Realme 10 series

Chinese tech company Realme recently confirmed that it would launch the Realme 10 series for its home market on November 17. In addition, to the 10 series, the company has now confirmed that it will launch new truly wireless earbuds. Teaser posters shared by the firm show that the new earbuds will be known as Realme Buds Air 3S.

Realme Buds Air 3S

While the specifications of the new truly wireless earbuds are not known at this time, the posters give us a clear look at the design. As can be seen from the official poster, the new earphones are designed with short stems giving them a smaller and lighter look. The design also includes ear wings that retain the buds to the ears firmly so that they won’t fall off easily.

Realme Buds Air 3S

In addition, the new product is equipped with a square charging box. The inside of the charging box has the slogan “DARE TO LEAP” inscribed. The inscription is Realme’s latest slogan which replaced the equally cool tagline “Proud To Be Young”. The Buds Air 3S is reportedly open for reservation in China. The pair will be available in two color options – Space white and carbon black.

The specs of the Buds Air 3S will likely not be too different from the Buds Air 3 Neo that was launched in July. The Buds Air 3 Neo comes with a built-in 10mm bass moving coil. It also comes with support for AI electronic noise cancellation as well as a 30% increase in physical wind noise resistance. The Buds Air 3 Neo has support for Bluetooth 5.2, has an ultra-low latency of 88ms, and has an IPX5 waterproof rating. It also has an affordable price tag of 129 yuan (~$18). We expect the Buds Air 3S to be priced around this region.

OnePlus Tablet Launch Tipped Again

We have been hearing about OnePlus releasing a tablet since mid-2021. For the past one and a half years, there have been multiple leaks regarding this product.

The last when we heard about it was in July 2022. A tech influencer revealed that the device has been delayed and it may release in early 2023.

Four months later, a reliable source now reiterates the same.

Oppo Pad
Oppo Pad

According to tipster Max Jambor, OnePlus is developing a tablet. This product is scheduled to release next year. Unfortunately, this is all he has to say.

Previous reports revealed that OnePlus’ first tablet could go by OnePlus Pad. They also suggested that it could be a better version of the Oppo Pad.

But now, it seems that OnePlus may have abandoned that product. Else, the device should have been released by now.

Therefore, we believe that the OnePlus tablet that is tipped to launch in 2023 could be a new product. At present, it’s not known whether it will be a unique device or a rebadged version of Oppo’s current or upcoming tablet.

Whatever it turns out to be, we are looking forward to learning more about it in the coming weeks. If OnePlus is indeed planning for a release, the device should start leaking via certifications, firmware, and even renders.

Until then, do let us know what you want from a OnePlus-branded tablet in the comment section below.

The company announced that it will offer the popular football World Cup live broadcast on its platform for free, but it will exclusively be available in China.

For those unaware, the FIFA 2022 World Cup is taking place in Qatar and Douyin managed to win the rights to stream the FIFA World Cup earlier this year. So now, Douyin will basically cover the entire 28-day event and offer free live broadcasts of all games at Ultra HD (4K) resolution quality on its popular short video-sharing platform. Simply searching for the “World Cup” will have Douyin users enter a special dedicated page that lets you watch the World Cup games.

Apart from just streaming the FIFA games, Douyin will also be offering a number of features to make the experience of watching the stream more interactive. This includes letting users invite friends to chat while watching the game. The app will offer this by making a live broadcast room. Keep in mind that this free 4K stream is exclusive to the China Douyin app. Meaning, it won’t be available on the Douyin app that is available globally. As of right now, this is all the information that is known regarding this matter, so stick around for more updates regarding a global availability.
