Twitter, the popular social media platform has made a major announcement for its users. After much rallying and requests from its users, the American tech giant announced on September 1st that an “edit tweet” feature will soon be introduced to its social media platform for users this year.
Illustration purposes only
From the company’s official blog post, “Edit Tweet” is a feature that lets users make changes to their Tweet after it’s been published. The feature can be useful for situations like fixing typos and adding missed hashtags without having to delete the entire Tweet or Twitter thread.
Currently, the “Edit Tweet” is in an internal testing phase on the Twitter platform, whereby only a selected group of Twitter users will enjoy the feature. Twitter states that internal testing helps the development team to incorporate feedback while identifying and resolving potential issues. This includes how people might misuse the “Edit Tweet” feature.
However, Twitter did announce that the company has plans to bring “Edit Tweet” to all of its paying Twitter Blue subscribers by the end of this month. As part of their subscription, they receive early access to features and help Twitter to test them before the features arrive on the social media platform.

As for how Edit Tweet will work, Twitter states the feature mechanics as follows:
“Tweets will be able to be edited a few times in the 30 minutes following their publication. Edited Tweets will appear with an icon, timestamp, and label so it’s clear to readers that the original Tweet has been modified. Tapping the label will take viewers to the Tweet’s Edit History, which includes past versions of the Tweet.”
Twitter is hoping that, with the availability of Edit Tweet, Tweeting will feel more approachable and less stressful for its users. The company also states that they will also be paying close attention to how the feature impacts the way people read, write, and engage with Tweets.
Alongside the new foldable Razr 2022, Motorola came up with a new amazing flagship: the Motorola X30 Pro. Despite being a top-tier flagship, this device does not come with an excessive price tag. Yet it sports specifications that you can usually find only on the most premium phones such as the best Samsung, OPPO, and Xiaomi devices. Another awesome handset released in this period with stunning specifications and a good price tag is the Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition. It has the best Qualcomm chipset and even one of the fastest charging technologies out there, but its price tag is very affordable compared to other phones with similar specifications. This is a comparison between the specifications of the Motorola X30 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition which will highlight the main differences between these two flagship killers.

Design
The Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition is stunning not only because of its specifications but even thanks of its design. It comes in a very original color option with a design inspired by a travel trunk, including a leather back and an aluminum frame. There is also a variant of this phone with a rear side made of ceramic. Further, this phone has one of the highest screen to body ratios in the whole market as the display takes up more than 90 percent of the front panel. On the other hand, the Motorola X30 Pro is a very attractive phone thanks to its curved display at the edges sporting an incredibly high screen to body ratio of 91 percent. It has a classic glass back protected by Gorilla Glass 5 instead of a leather or ceramic back, but it is dust and splash resistant, even though it does not have an IP certification.
Display
The Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition and the Motorola X30 Pro are very close when it comes to display quality, but the Motorola X30 Pro is the winner, even though the margin is strict. It has an OLED panel able to show up to one billion colors with a diagonal of 6.7 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 144 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, and a peak brightness of up to 1,250 nits, as well as an in-display fingerprint scanner. The Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition has a 6.7-inch panel showing up to one billion colors with a Full HD+ resolution, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and the HDR10+ certification, and it sports an in-display fingerprint reader as well: it has a lower refresh rate and a lower brightness. Both phones are equipped with stereo speakers, but they lack a 3.5 mm audio jack.
Specs & Software
The differences between these two phones are just marginal if we talk about the hardware departments. They are powered by the same processor: the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 mobile platform by Qualcomm. It is a chipset built with a 4 nm production process sporting an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at a frequency of 2.75 GHz, four Cortex A510 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, and an Adreno 730 GPU. The chipset is paired with up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, but the internal storage of these two phones is different if we only consider the most expensive variant. The Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition goes up to 256 GB, while the Motorola X30 Pro reaches 512 GB of UFS 3.1 storage. Both the phones run Android 12 out of the box, but with different user interfaces on top.
Camera
You should have no doubts if you need the best camera phone between these two: the Motorola X30 Pro is the most advanced one. It is the world’s first phone with a 200 MP camera: the main sensor supports OIS and is paired with a 50 MP ultrawide lens and a 12 MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom. On the front side, you can find an amazing 60 MP selfie shooter. The Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition is inferior, but it is not a bad camera phone: it has a triple rear camera including a 50 MP Sony IMX766 main sensor with OIS, a 50 MP ultrawide lens, and a 3 MP microscope camera with 40x magnification. The selfie snapper is a 32 MP sensor.
The Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition is able to provide longer battery life for a simple reason: it has a bigger battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh. On the other hand, the Motorola X30 Pro charges quicker thanks to 125W fast charging and it is the only one to support wireless charging.
Price
You need at least $448/€448 to purchase the Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition, while the Motorola X30 Pro starts from €550/$550. Which one would you pick?
Motorola X30 Pro vs Realme GT 2 Master Explorer Edition: PRO and CONS
Nowadays, chargers are a rare sight inside smartphone boxes. Apple started this trend and other manufacturers quickly followed the lead. OPPO was keeping the tradition alive by including a charger with all of its smartphones. However, now it seems the company will also join its fellow manufacturers in the “No charger club”.
During the European launch event for the Oppo Reno8 series Billy Zhang, Oppo’s VP of overseas sales and services, said that OPPO will “take the charger out of the box in the next year for several products”. However, he didn’t delineate which devices will lose the charger.
“It’s not that easy for consumers to get access to [SuperVOOC chargers], so we have to keep it in the box. However, as we are expanding our business operations, we are looking to taking chargers out of the box and put them in the store so that our users are able to buy the chargers and continue using them even when they upgrade their devices,” Zhang added.
As the executive mentioned, the chargers will be removed from only some of the devices and the majority of the OPPO products may still retain a charger. In addition, the company will make the chargers available in stores, so that the customers can purchase them easily.
This move shouldn’t come as a surprise since major OEMs like Apple and Samsung have been shipping their phones without chargers for years. By dropping chargers, companies aim to reduce their carbon footprint and save the environment through the reduction of plastic waste.
More details about this are expected to emerge soon. We’ll keep you posted!

Redmi is working on a bunch of A-series smartphones. The company recently teased the launch of the Redmi A1. And today a new smartphone, dubbed Redmi A1+ has been spotted on TDRA UAE’s website, hinting at an imminent launch. It is expected to be an entry-level smartphone and may debut alongside the Redmi A1.
According to tipster Mukul Sharma, a Redmi smartphone with the moniker Redmi A1+ has been spotted on the TRDA certification database with the model number 220733SFG. The listing did not provide the specifications of the smartphone. However, it has confirmed the moniker and has signaled an imminent launch. Recently, a device with the same model number also appeared on the IMEI database.
Details about the Redmi A1+ are still pretty short. Its moniker suggests it may be launched as a budget smartphone with decent specs. More details will likely emerge soon. Meanwhile, let’s check out the rumored specifications of the recently teased Redmi A1 to get a better idea about the upcoming device.
Redmi A1 Specifications (Expected)
Redmi A1 is expected to be an entry-level smartphone. It will be equipped with a MediaTek Helio A22 chipset, which is a pretty old quad-core processor with all four cores clocked at 2GHz.The chipset will be paired with 3GB of RAM. As for the operating system, the device will run Android 12 out of the box.
Apart from this, the Redmi A1 will feature connectivity options like LTE, 2.4GHz WiFi, and Bluetooth 5.0. The device will measure 164.67mm in length and will be 76.56mm wide. Redmi A1’s teaser post suggests the device may launch during Diwali (an Indian festival), which is on October 24. Redmi A1+ may also launch alongside it.
Smartphone designs haven’t evolved a lot over the past few years, but we have seen brands like vivo and Nothing that have tried to differentiate their phone’s design with unique rear panels. We have seen phones from OPPO and vivo change their colors when you expose them to sunlight or more specifically UV rays. Now TECNO joins this club with the debut of its CAMON 19 Pro Mondrian edition which features a unique technology that can change its color to multiple shades from plain white. TECNO describes it as a “light chasing” experience.
From the official renders, we can see multiple rectangular blocks on the back. Under normal conditions, the back features a plain white color, however, when exposed to sunlight, the different blocks change from white to different colors. To recall, phones like the Vivo V25 Pro can only change its color from one shade to the other. This makes the Camon 19 Pro Mondrian edition’s design one of a kind in this industry. Clearly, this color-changing design is going to be one of the biggest selling points of the device at launch.
Phones from brands like OPPO and Vivo that feature similar color-changing technologies rely on Fluorite AG glass. But in the case of the Camon 19 Pro Mondrian edition, it features a unique Polychromatic photoisomer technology. The phone relies on the recovery and breakage effect of the chain of photosynthesis molecular bonds under ultraviolet light, making the colorless molecular groups chromogenic and reverting to being colorless. To achieve this result, the phone has to go through 22 steps with the final product having the ability to change its color into multiple shades and also reverting back to being colorless. TECNO adds that the phone underwent 500 iterations until the resulting design was finalized.
TECNO also revealed a teaser video of the Camon 19 Pro Mondrian edition’s color-changing technology a few months ago. You can check it out down below.
In case you are wondering, the Camon 19 Pro Mondrian edition gets its name from the revered Dutch artist Piet Mondrian, a painter and art theoretician who is regarded as one of the greatest artists of the 20th century. Mondrian is known for his work on abstract art and intruding figurative paintings.
The CAMON 19 Pro Mondrian edition has also bagged multiple awards like the USA Muse design award and the A’ Design Award from Italy, an award that recognizes the best design concepts and products.
The phone is confirmed to launch in India later this month but an exact date hasn’t been revealed yet. It is said that the device will have identical specs to the standard CAMON 19 Pro model, but with this unique color-changing back panel.
Tecno Camon 19 Pro Mondrian Edition Specifications
Like the regular CAMON 19 Pro, the Mondrian edition is also expected to feature a 6.8-inch tall IPS LCD display with FHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. A mid-range MediaTek Helio G96 chip is expected to power this device with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of ROM.
As for the camera specs, the phone will likely come with a triple camera setup consisting of a 64MP primary camera with OIS, a 50MP portrait shooter, and a 2MP macro camera. On the front, a large 32MP is expected to take care of the user’s selfie needs. Finally, for battery, the phone should feature a 5000mAh battery like the regular edition with 33W fast charging support.
Vivo X Fold S was recently spotted on China’s 3C certification site, which confirmed the device will support up to 80W fast charging. Today, the device has visited Geekbench benchmarking site, hinting at a few key specs. The listing reveals the foldable will be equipped with Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. Moreover, it is rumored to feature up to 12GB of RAM, an improved battery, a 50-megapixel telephoto camera, and a high-resolution display with a 120Hz refresh rate.
Vivo X Fold
Tipster Mukul Sharma has spotted the Vivo X Fold S on the Geekbench website with model number V2229A. The device’s motherboard is having codename ‘taro’, which is associated with Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 chipset. The chipset is having four cores running at 2.02GHz, three at 2.75GHz, and one prime core with a 3.19GHz clock speed.
The processor is paired with Adreno 730 GPU. The listing shows the phone would offer 11.01GB of RAM. This translates to 12GB RAM on paper. The phone could also come with other storage variants. The foldable is listed to run Android 12 OS out of the box. It may also have a customized UI on top.
The Vivo X Fold S smartphone has scored 1,319 points in the single-core round and 4,045 points in the multi-core tests.
Previous reports suggest the device will come with a 4,700mAh battery and support up to 80W wired and 50W wireless charging. It is said to have a 50-megapixel telephoto camera and significantly improved hinge and build quality. Further, the device is tipped to have a leather finish and an in-screen ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.
The Vivo X Fold S is rumored to debut this month (September). We are still waiting for an official word from the company. More details are expected to emerge soon. We’ll keep you posted.

Apple’s next-generation flagship iPhone 14 series is just six days away and will launch on September 7th. The lineup is expected to consist of two non-Pro and two Pro iPhone 14 models. As per leaks and rumours, the latter is said to come with a redesigned notch i.e. with a hole-punch and pill-shaped cutouts.
Now, in the latest development as per MacRumours citing an anonymous tipster, the iPhone 14 Pro’s dual cutouts on the display could appear as one long pill-shaped cutout. Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman also corroborated the report.
The rumour about the latest development is said to have originated from Foxconn employees, one of Apple’s manufacturing partners involved in the production of the iPhone 14 Pro. As mentioned earlier, the Pro variants will come with a pill-shaped cutout on the left side and a punch-hole cutout beside it. A small space between them will separate both. The cutouts will accommodate Apple’s facial recognition system and a front camera sensor.
MacRumors reports that the two cutouts will appear as one and look like one wide pill-shaped cutout when the screen is turned on. Apple seems to have turned off the pixels from the display’s negative space. The report also claims that the areas between the cutouts will be reserved for displaying privacy indicators that arrived on iOS 14. It will show the microphone and video cameras actively (green and orange dots) actively being used by an app on the device. Bloomberg’s Gurman also said that the separation would look odd during use and the wide pill-shaped cutout will be less obtrusive while consuming content.
Additionally, MacRumours source states that the camera layout is also expected to be updated. The flash and live photo button will be located in the status bar while other settings will be located below the cutout. The expanded cutout could also show pixels while receiving notifications.
