Many websites use CAPTCHAs to make users prove they are not bots. Sure, this effort increases cyber security, but it can be pretty annoying at times. However, there’s good news for iPhone users, you will not have to deal with as many annoying CAPTCHAs because iOS 16 will come with a new feature that will let users bypass CAPTCHAs in supported apps and websites.

According to MacRumors, Apple will be introducing a new feature for its iOS16, iPadOS 16, and MacOS Ventura called Automatic Verification. This feature will let some websites and apps know that you’re a human without you actually having to solve the CAPTCHA.

The report claims Apple has revealed details about how this feature will work in a developer video as part of WWDC 2022. The feature can be found in the Settings under Apple ID> Password & Security > Automatic Verification. Apple claims iCloud will automatically and privately verify your device and Apple ID account when you enable this new feature, thereby eliminating the need to complete CAPTCHA verifications on apps and websites.

Apple has partnered with two major content delivery networks (CDN)– Fastly and Cloudflare, to develop the system. These two CDNs are used by the majority of websites meaning that the ability to bypass CAPTCHAs may be coming to millions of apps and websites powered by either of the services. Moreover, the feature will roll out more widely in the near future.

This feature is enabled by default in the developer’s beta iOS 16 and iPadOS 16. The feature is also supported in macOS Ventura. The upcoming Apple software updates are still under development and are expected to roll out this fall.

These devices will be followed by SD8+G1 flagships from OnePlus, iQOO, and Red Magic.

BOE may end up supplying OLED Displays for the upcoming iPhone 14 Series

Jun 21, 2022

Earlier this year, China’s BOE made a deal with Apple for supplying the OLED display panels used in the new iPhone 14 series which is expected to be launched in September. However, BOE was caught changing the circuit width of the thin film transistors on the OLED panels it was manufacturing for iPhone 13. This led Apple to halt its orders. Now, as per a new report, Apple is again evaluating samples of BOE displays and may place a large-scale order.

According to a report by South Korea’s The Elec, this week, Apple will be evaluating BOE’s samples of OLED panels aimed for the upcoming iPhone 14 series. And if things go right, Apple may even proceed to place a bulk order.

The Chinese display manufacturer is expecting to receive approval from the Cupertino company within a month, says the report. Moreover, If Apple decides to give a heads up, BOE will start mass-producing the panels for the standard iPhone 14 model sometime between July and August.

The Report says BOE is a few weeks behind its South Korean competitors, as Samsung Display and LG Display are likely to start the production of the iPhone 14 OLED panels at the end of this year.

It is also reported that BOE will supply around 5 million units at most due to its recent debacle with the panels for the iPhone 13.

We know that Apple iPhone 14 series is going to have four models- iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone Pro Max. Apple will be replacing the mini version with a Plus/Max variant.

The standard iPhone 14 and 14 max will not carry many design changes. However, the Pro and Pro Max will feature a new cutout, with a hole-punch plus pill design. Also, the regular models will feature the prev-gen A14 chip whereas the Pro and Pro Max will boast the new A15 chip.

It will be interesting to see how Apple is going to justify the price of the regular models since they are almost the same as previous-generation iPhone 13 models.

Back in January, Samsung unveiled the fan edition Galaxy S21 FE. Unlike the previous-gen S20 FE, which came in two different variants, the S21 FE got launched in just one iteration featuring 5G connectivity with Snapdragon 888 Soc under the hood. But recently, there were rumors that Samsung is working on a cheaper Galaxy S21 FE 4G variant with model number SM-G990B2. However, it seems that rumors are false and there is no S21 FE 4G as SM-G990B2 has been spotted on the Google Play Supported device list as a 5G device.

It was also reported that the rumored smartphone will be powered by a downgraded Snapdragon 720G SoC. However, the folks over at MySmartPrice have spotted SM-G990B2 on Google Play Supported device list as “Samsung S21 FE 5G”.

Talking about the Snapdragon 720 Soc that is rumored to be inside the SM-G990B2, it is a significant downgrade when compared to the Snapdragon 888. 720 was used in the mid-range Galaxy A52 and also in a plethora of Redmi smartphones.

OPPO has recently launched the OPPO Reno 8 series of smartphones in China. Rumors are rife that the global markets will be receiving the Reno 8 series this month. China received the OPPO Reno 8 Pro+ with Dimensity 8100 chipset and the OPPO Reno 8 Pro with a Snapdragon 7 Gen 1.

Rumors have it that these devices will be rebranded as OPPO Reno 8 Pro and Reno 8 in India and possibly in other markets. An OPPO device with a CPH2357 model number has appeared in the database of the Geekbench benchmarking site. Since the device is equipped with the D8100 chipset, it seems that it could be the global version of the Reno 8 Pro. The Geekbench appearance suggests that the company could be internally testing its performance before its official announcement.

The Meta-owned instant messaging platform WhatsApp has brought many new features and changes in recent months. The most recent changes include message reactions, and the extended 2GB file sharing limit. Now, WhatsApp has rolled out more new features, so let’s check them out.

Admin Approval

The first feature is called Admin Approval which has been launched to increase the moderation capabilities of group administrators. With this new feature, the group admin will get a notification to approve the addition of a member to a group. If a group has multiple admins, they will need to individually activate it to receive the approval notifications.

Who can see profile picture, status updates

WhatsApp is finally rolling out highly requested features that will allow users more privacy. Previously, users had three options on who can see their profile picture, status updates, or last seen. These options included everyone, my contacts, and nobody. Now, the app is offering the ability for users to choose who in their contact list can access this information. If users want a particular contact to not be able to see their profile picture, status, or last seen, they can simply add them to the exclusion list.

Group audio calls – Muting people, added participant

WhatsApp recently increased the maximum capacity of group call participants to 32, and now, the app has introduced new features to polish the user experience. The users now get the ability to mute a fellow participant in a group audio call. Other than that, another feature will now notify the users who are already on a group call when a new user joins the call.

All of these above-mentioned features are currently rolling out in various regions.

Last month, Oppo debuted the Reno 8 series smartphones in China. The series consists of three devices – Oppo Reno 8 Pro+, Oppo Reno 8 Pro, and the vanilla Reno 8.

The China version of the Oppo Reno 8 Pro+ comes with the Dimensity 8100 Max SoC, while the Reno 8 Pro and the Reno 8 come with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 and Dimensity 1300 chipsets respectively. Now, ahead of its global launch, the Reno 8 Pro has been spotted on the Geekbench database suggesting that the device will feature an entirely different chipset from the Chinese variant.

According to the listing, the Reno 8 Pro global variant has the model number CPH2357. It is powered by a chipset featuring an octa-core CPU with four cores clocked at 2.00GHz and the remaining four clocked at 2.85GHz. The SoC also brings along the Mali-G610 MC6 GPU making it pretty obvious that it is the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 (or 8100 Max) chipset.

Other than that, the listing reveals that the device has 12GB of RAM and runs Android 12 out of the box. Coming to the benchmark results, the device scores 898 points in the single-core test and 3555 in the multi-core test of Geekbench 5.

An earlier report from tipster PassionateGeekz has revealed that the Reno 8 Pro+ will not be launching in the Indian market. This could also be the case for the global variant, which is likely why the Reno 8 Pro model has the Dimensity 8100 (Max) chipset instead of the Snapdragon Gen 1 chipset.

Going with the possibility that the Reno 8 Pro+ model will be launched as the Reno 8 Pro global variant, we can expect a 6.7-inch Full HD+ screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and 950 nits of peak brightness. The device will likely combine the Dimensity 8100 Max chipset with up to 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.

For the camera system, the device will feature a triple camera setup consisting of a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 primary sensor paired with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens and a 2-megapixel macro unit. On the front, the smartphone will have a 2MP Sony IMX709 selfie snapper, and the device will also likely come equipped with the MariSilicon X NPU. Other than that, we can expect the device to come with a 4500mAh battery unit with 80W fast charging.
