iPhone 15 Pro models will reportedly come with solid-state power and volume buttons

Oct 28, 2022

It’s barely a few months after the launch of the iPhone 14 series in September. Rumours about the next-generation iPhone 15 lineup have already started surfacing on the web. Now, reliable Apple Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has shared new information on the high-end iPhone 15 models.

(1/6)
My latest survey indicates that the volume button and power button of two high-end iPhone 15/2H23 new iPhone models may adopt a solid-state button design (similar to the home button design of iPhone 7/8/SE2 & 3) to replace the physical/mechanical button design.
— 郭明錤 (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) October 28, 2022

As per Kuo, Apple will introduce solid-state power and volume rocker buttons on the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max. This means that the Cupertino-based tech giant will reportedly ditch the clickable switches. To make it simpler, the current-generation iPhones feature a physical/mechanical button design. The solid-state button design is similar to the home button design on the iPhone 7, 8, and even the SE 2 and SE 3.

The solid-state buttons make users feel like they are pressing physical buttons by offering haptic feedback to confirm presses. In reality, the buttons don’t actually sink in physically. The design change is only expected to be on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. For this, the smartphones will be equipped with Taptic Engines on the internal left and right sides This means that the next-generation Apple flagships could come with three taptic engines in addition to the existing vibration motor. Removing the physical power and volume buttons will also aid in removing two additional ingress points for water and dust, thereby creating a more durable phone.

Kuo adds that high-end Android OEMs are expected to adopt Apple’s solid-state button design to create a new selling point.

As per past reports, Apple has complied with the EU law that requires phone manufacturers to use USB-C ports. This potentially suggests that the iPhone 15 will ditch the lightning port in favour of a USB-C connection. Regardless, buttonless design and a USB-C port seem to be a major highlights for the next-generation iPhones.

Elon Musk’s Twitter acquisition is finally confirmed

Oct 28, 2022

Over the last couple of months, the news regarding Twitter being bought up by known billionaire Elon Musk has been on and off. However, it seems like the massive multi billion dollar deal has finally been confirmed.

For those unaware, Musk had first announced the 44 billion US Dollars acquisition deal earlier this year. However, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla had soon backed out of the deal owing to complications related to transparency in business operations. This then led to lawsuits being filed against the billionaire. But recently, it seemed that things finally worked out and the deal was back on track. Now, Elon Musk has officially confirmed this deal.

But according to a Bloomberg report, CEO Parag Agrawal, CFO Ned Segal, Policy Chief Vijaya Gadde and General Counsel Sean Edgett were some of the executives that were laid off following this acquisition. Furthermore, Edgett was reportedly escorted from Twitter’s head office. In other words, it might seem that Musk still has friction over the legal actions that were tanked against him months prior.

Entering Twitter HQ – let that sink in! pic.twitter.com/D68z4K2wq7
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 26, 2022

Musk even took to Twitter to officially confirm this announcement with a short video of him entering the Twitter headquarters. He stated that “The reason I acquired Twitter is because it is important to the future of civilization to have a common digital town square, where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence. There is currently great danger that social media will splinter into far right and far left wing echo chambers that generate more hate and divide our society.”

DJI may launch the new Mavic 3 Classic Drone on November 2

Oct 28, 2022

DJI is apparently gearing up to launch a new drone from its popular Mavic series soon. The company has announced that the upcoming Mavic 3 Classic drone will be unveiled on the 2nd of November 2022. So here’s what we know so far.

As per an official teaser trailer, the Chinese drone maker is set to announce the new Mavic 3 Classic on November 2. The upcoming drone in question is believed to be from the Mavic series due to the camera lens that was seen in the recently shared teaser. The sensor looks nearly identical to the Hasselblad camera on the DJI Mavic 3. Although, this model lacked branding and a telephoto lens. But it appears that the cheaper version of its Mavic 3 drone might be the Classic, which would go official on the ‘Explore Vivid’ event next month.

Furthermore, the new drone also looks similar to the recent image leaks of the Mavic 3 Classic, which were shared by WinFuture. Apart from this, the Mavic 3 Drone had also passed through the FCC certification website as well previously. If the brand decides to launch the Mavic 3 Classic at an aggressive price, we can expect it to be quite an attractive option that might also compete with the company’s existing Mini 3 series of drones.

As of right now, it is unclear just how much the Mavic 3 Classic will cost. Although, we can expect this model to retail somewhere around the 1,400 US Dollars mark. Keep in mind that this is still just speculation so take this with a pinch of salt for now and stick around for more updates.

Global smartphone shipments fall in Q3 2022; only Apple grows year-on-year

Oct 28, 2022

Multiple international market research firms Counterpoint Research, International Data Corporation (IDC), and Canalys have revealed the results of the global smartphone shipments during the third quarter of 2022. Q3, 2022 is the period between the month of July to September. OEMs sold 301.9 million units compared to 342 million during the same period last year. Counterpoint Research reveals a 12 percent decline whereas IDC and Canalys represent a figure of 9 percent.

The global smartphone shipments in the third quarter improved compared to the last quarter i.e. Q2, where shipments slipped below the 300 million mark. The market is said to be at the lowest Q3 level since 2014. All three research firms attribute the downfall in shipments to the Russia-Ukraine war, China-US tensions, growing inflation and fear of recession, and weakening national currencies leading to a dent in consumer sentiment. Shipments across Europe and Asia Pacific performed better while emerging markets remained laggards.

As for the OEM performance, Apple was the only company to register a 2 percent year-on-year growth. In Q3, 2022 the Cupertino-based tech giant had a 17 percent market share with 51.9 million shipments. South Korean major Samsung lead the Q3 market with 64 million sales and 21 percent share, however, it declined 8 percent YoY basis. Xiaomi came in third with a 13.4 percent share and 40.5 million shipments. It fell 8.6 percent year-on-year. Vivo and OPPO bagged the fourth spot with 25.9 million sales and 8.6 percent market share. Both companies recorded double-digit declines of 26.3 percent. Chinese brands were able to capitalise on Apple and Samsung’s exit from the Russian market. It’s worth noting that all five OEMs registered positive growth quarter-on-quarter basis.

Further, it is said to lack an external display on the back. But it will retain the 120Hz refresh rate for its foldable display from the expensive model.

Last but not least, it is expected to be the first Huawei foldable smartphone featuring cameras tuned by the company’s self-developed XMAGE image processing.

Reportedly, the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s 200 megapixel sensor will offer great low light performance for both video capture and photography.

He further added that the camera will also have “unparalleled computational skills.” Ice Universe also claimed that these improvements will be the biggest jump in camera in five years for the brand. In other words, the Galaxy S23 Ultra could have one of the best cameras on a smartphone next year. The good news for Samsung fans doesn’t end just yet either since Ice Universe also claimed that the upcoming premium grade handset will also feature a new and improved telephoto lens as well.

The tipster said that the Galaxy S23 Ultra will retain the same zoom cameras as the last gen Galaxy S22 Ultra, which means a 3x and 10x periscopic zoom sensor. However, the telephoto sensor wi feature improvements in color and “some AI algorithms” that will make big improvements in overall quality on the newer flagship model. For those unaware, hardware isn’t the entire picture in smartphone photography, computational processes play a big role in improving camera performance in recent years.
