Anker also says that the power station is longer-lasting and substantially safer than Lithium-ion batteries. The Anker 757 Powerhouse weighs up to 20kg but its battery choice (LiFePO4) means that up to 3,000 battery charging cycles are guaranteed. In addition, Anker says the 757 Powerhouse can charge from 0 to 80% within an hour.

The Anker 757 Powerhouse has six AC outlets and it can deliver 100W USB-C charging. It also has four USB-A ports charging at 12W as well as a car lighter socket. The battery can be charged via mains electricity or a 300W triple solar panel setup. However, Anker is yet to release the price of the solar panels which will be sold separately. Anker is also offering an extended 5-year warranty on the product, which is quite remarkable.

Realme Buds Q2s TWS earbuds may launch in India alongside GT Neo 3

Apr 14, 2022

Realme might be planning on launching a new pair of TWS (truly wireless) earbuds in India soon. The new model in question is the Buds Q2s, which was previously launched in China.

According to a PriceBaba report, the Chinese smartphone maker could be planning on releasing its latest wireless earphones during the upcoming launch event of its Realme GT Neo 3 smartphone. For those unaware, the brand has teased the launch of the handset recently, so it won’t arrive as a surprise that the new Buds Q2s also tag along. Notably, the Buds Q2s are the successor to the Buds Q2 that was launched back in 2021, however, the newer model was never officially released outside of the company’s home market of China.

It is highly likely that the variant that launches in India will be identical to the Chinese model. So, the Buds Q2s will still feature the same 10mm audio drivers and will also feature the AI powered Environmental Noise Cancellation (ENC). The report further adds that the launch of the smartphone and the earbuds could be just mere weeks away.

Talking more about the hearables, the Realme Buds Q2s was launched in China in multiple color options, including Paper White, Paper Green, and Titanium Blue. A notable design aspect was the translucent top of the charging case which adds to its overall appeal. It also comes with Dolby Atmos support, a dedicated 88ms low latency mode, and is powered by a 480mAh battery pack. This enables it to offer a total of 30 hours of audio playback, which can be fast charged via a USB Type C port that enables 3 hour of music playback with just 10 minutes of charging.

Apple iPhone 15 may feature Periscope Telephoto Lens: Report

Apr 14, 2022

Apple is apparently planning on bringing a periscopic telephoto lens sensor to its 2023 iPhone lineup. The brand is rumored to have entered into an agreement with a lens supplier that will make these sensors for its future iPhones, starting from the iPhone 15 series.

According to TheElec, the South Korea based Jahwa Electronics recently announced that it plans to spend over 150 million US Dollars to build a plant that manufactures new OIS (optical image stabilization) actuators. This is notable considering Apple had previously visited the new facilities during the first half of last year. In other words, it is quite likely that the heavy investment arrives as a part of an agreement, which means that the Cupertino based giant will soon be acquiring these new OIS actuators next year.

This timeline puts it in line for the 2023 iPhone series. For those unaware, the iPhone maker typically asks its suppliers to build a dedicated production line that is exclusive for the parts that it sources from them. But, the new site that is planned to be built in Gumi will have to be approved by Apple, and could possibly take a year to complete. The company has been rumored to bring a periscopic telephoto lens for its smartphone for some time now, so it won’t be far fetched to assume that next year’s iPhone 15 might finally be the one to feature this camera technology.

Initial reports had also hinted at the iPhone 14 Pro possibly launching with this sensor. Although, newer reports have hinted otherwise. For those unaware, a periscopic telephoto lens usually allows for further zoom capabilities due to a “folded” telephoto setup inside the smartphone. So, we can expect higher optical and improved hybrid zoom on future iPhone models.

The device debuted with Android 10-based ColorOS 7 and was updated to ColorOS 11(Android 11) last year. Now, the firm has started recruiting beta testers for ColorOS 12 update based on Android 12.

According to the official schedule shared by Oppo, the ColorOS 12 beta program for the Oppo A53 is supposed to kickstart from April 19 in India. However, the company has already started recruiting testers starting today (April 14). The registrations will end on April 19.

In order to participate in the initiative, the device should be on firmware version C.22. To enroll in the program, interested users need to go to Settings > Software Update > Gear Icon > Apply for Beta Version > Update Beta Version and follow the on-screen instructions.

Qualified applicants will receive the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 beta update via OTA within 3 working days from the selection. Others may try their luck in the next batch of recruitment if any.

Apple iPhone 14 may feature Satellite Connectivity for emergencies

Apr 14, 2022

A new rumor has just surfaced regarding the Apple iPhone 14 series. Apparently, the company’s latest generation of smartphones that will be launching later this year will come with satellite connectivity options for emergency scenarios.

Recently, we had even reported on the Cupertino based giant possibly working on a similar satellite feature for its Apple Watch. The primary reason for the inclusion of this system is to allow users to send messages or reach out to emergency services in cases of an actual emergency. This system will reportedly include an “Emergency Message via Contacts” for sending short messages in areas that do not have cellular signals.

In other words, it appears that the brand is looking to include this feature in its other products as well. Interestingly, the iPhone 13 series was also rumored to come with such technology as well, although, this was skipped on the 2021 iPhone. So, it is entirely possible that we won’t see this feature appear on the iPhone 14 lineup as well. Although, the latest news from Mark Gurman says otherwise.

Through satellite connectivity, users would be able to send text messages or SOS responses via a satellite network to report on accidents, similar to the one on the brand’s smartwatch. All in all, this will just be quite a bit helpful for Apple customers that find themselves stuck in certain worst case scenarios, and potentially even save lives.

The Vivo X80 series launch is expected to be just around the corner. The company is reportedly planning on launching the new smartphones later this month in China, but prior to its release, a new report has surfaced that reveals some of its key specifications.

Previously, we had reported on a Geekbench listing on a smartphone that carried the model number V2145. This handset was believed to be the Vivo X80 Pro+ model, which featured Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC on the benchmarking platform. But now, known Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station claims that the lineup will be powered by MediaTek’s latest and greatest Dimensity 9000 processors.

As of right now, it is unclear if the top end X80 Pro+ model will be the sole version to feature the flagship Qualcomm chipset. However, the tipster also shared an image on the Chinese microblogging website that showcased the device running on Dimensity 9000 SoC alongside a custom made image processing chip as well. This imaging chip was reportedly developed in house and is a flagship grade custom image chip that will enhance the photography experience on the upcoming smartphones.

Digital Chat Station added that this custom chip will improve the amount of light that reaches the sensor by a significant amount. Furthermore, he believes that the Vivo X80 Pro series will have a proprietary ISP + RGBW sensor with a large f/1.57 aperture. Unfortunately, this is all the information he shared regarding this device at the moment. But keep in mind that this is still an unconfirmed report, so take it with a pinch of salt for now and stick around for more updates.
