Apple reportedly working on a new 15-inch iPad for home devices market

Dec 20, 2021

Apple is usually among the leading companies in whatever category the company launches its products but the Cupertino-based technology giant has a minimal market share when it comes to smart speakers.

In an effort to tilt the market to its advantage, it is reported that Apple could be working on a 15-inch iPad. The large-screened iPad could be positioned in such a way that it will support smart speakers from the brand.

One of the biggest advantages that Apple has when it comes to smart devices is its App Store and with the new 15-inch iPad as a smart display solution in support for speakers, the App Store can be leveraged to gain more users.

The report indicates that the upcoming large-screened iPad could come packed with a powerful chipset and include a top-of-the-line camera in landscape orientation. It is expected to have support for the wall mount and have a power plug at the back.

It is speculated to be a two-in-one device that can be used as a smart display for home or double up as a tablet. The device is expected to go official in a couple of years but whenever it launches, the pricing will be crucial in its success.

Currently, Amazon and Google are dominating the smart speaker market with 69 percent and 25 percent of the market share. One factor that is helping them is their smart voice assistant — Alexa and Google Assistant, which are considered to be much better than Siri when it comes to virtual assistance.

In related news, the report also confirms that Apple will launch its new iPad Pro in 11-inch and 12.9-inch models next year. Both of them will come with a mini-LED display and have support for Mag-Safe wireless charging as well as reverse wireless charging.

Logistics giant FedEx has taken delivery of the first batch of General Motors’ BrightDrop electric delivery vans. This marks a milestone as the company continues to transit its operations into sustainable carbon-neutral ideals. Earlier this year when BrightDrop, the logistics and electric delivery arm of GM, was launched, FedEx placed an order of 500 electric delivery vans.

The collaboration between FedEx and BrightDrop has now culminated in the delivery of the first set of electric Light Commercial Vehicles (eLCVs), named the EV600. FedEx has now confirmed taking delivery of the first five units of the EV600. Some images of the new EV600 electric delivery vans were also shared by FedEx.

The EV600 is powered by GM’s Ultium platform and the van has an estimated range of up to 250 miles (402.3km) on a full charge. The EV600 offers more than 600 cubic feet (17 cubic meters) of cargo space.

FedEx had put 2040 as its target for its global pickup and delivery (PUD) fleet to go all-electric.The EV600 delivery vans are to be deployed at FedEx’s Express facility in Inglewood, California. According to Mitch Jackson, Chief Sustainability Officer of FedEx, the addition of the BrightDrop EV600 EVs into its fleet is a historic moment for both companies. The milestone keys into FedEx’s strategic plans to transform its pickup and delivery fleet to electric vehicles. The move also keys squarely into the ambitious sustainability goals already outlined by FedEx.

Travis Katz, President, and CEO of BrightDrop, also weighed in on the momentous occasion, coming barely a year after the formation of BrightDrop. For Katz, as eCommerce continues to blossom, the company’s mission is to dramatically reduce vehicle emissions from delivery vans. He also stated that FedEx has ambitious sustainability goals and the collaboration with FedEx shows how the private sector can innovate and help bring solutions to climate and emissions-related challenges.

Tipster provides a glimpse of the Nokia Senna tablet canceled in 2011

Dec 19, 2021

In the past few weeks, Nokia expert and tipster, Dimitros Vlachos had provided some inside details of a few Nokia phones that did not scale the hurdle of production. This week, Vlachos has added the Nokia Senna to this list, providing some details about the device which was canceled possibly after its development in 2011. Nokia had planned to replace its Symbian OS architecture with the MeeGo OS, and the Nokia Senna was also in development at the time.

The Senna was designed as a compact tablet based on the Nokia N9 design. However, the MeeGo ecosystem was abruptly discontinued as it was lacking in design and functionality behind the Android OS. A similar scenario led to the cancellation of the Senna production. The design concept of Senna was later to be deployed to the design of the WP8 tablet, although the Nokia 2520 that was released was also a great device.

Dimitros Vlachos has now provided some stunning live feeds of the canceled Senna tablet. Earlier in 2013, some images of the Senna surfaced online. Dimitros says the device was based on Sony-Ericsson’s Nova Thor chipset and it runs on vanilla MeetGo. As seen in the details provided by Dimitous, the Nokia Senna has similar UI and apps as found in the N9. The camera of the Nokia Senna is capable of recording 1080p videos, which is a great feat at the time of its development.

We could expect that Dimitros Vlachos may still have a few more unreleased/canceled Nokia models from the last decade. This is however not unconnected with the dynamics of the company at the time and its subsequent acquisition by Microsoft.

No news of specs or benchmarks of the Dimensity 8000 were leaked, however, an insider in China posted on Weibo that allegedly in 2022, Redmi will be releasing its Redmi K50 with the MediaTek Dimensity 8000 processor whereas Realme will be releasing its Realme GT Neo3 with the Dimensity 8000 under its hood too.

If the leaks are to be believed, the Redmi flagship K series will be fully transitioning from Qualcomm Snapdragon chips to MediaTek Dimensity processors next year. They are respectively, Dimensity 9000 for the Redmi K50 Pro and Dimensity 8000 for the regular Redmi K50.

This comes as a surprise as throughout the flagship Redmi K series, Redmi has never used MediaTek for its flagships prior to 2021. Redmi only used a MediaTek processor once for its flagships, which was the Redmi K40 Gaming Edition. For reference, the Redmi K40 series debuted in early 2021 with the flagship Snapdragon 888 for the Redmi K40 Pro & Redmi K40 Pro Plus, and the Snapdragon 870 for the regular Redmi K40.

2022 seems like the year where MediaTek could finally stand against its rival Qualcomm as both Oppo and Redmi had confirmed that they will be using their flagship processor, the Dimensity 9000 chipset in both their upcoming flagships. Henry Duan, Vice President at Oppo, revealed the next Find X flagship, presumably, the regular Find X4, will be its first device to be launched with the MediaTek Dimensity 9000. As for Redmi, General Manager of Redmi & Vice President of Xiaomi, Lu Weibing announced that Redmi will be using the Dimensity 9000 as well in their Redmi K50 series.

A clever way by phone manufacturers to overcome the disappearing 3.5mm headphone jack trend on smartphones was to release their own first-party TWS earbuds for consumers to buy with their smartphones. However, the prices of these first-party earbuds were normally not quite the price-to-performance that you were getting on their smartphones because of the higher pricing. The solution? 3rd party high price-to-performance TWS earbuds from tech startups! A new yet familiar name to the TWS earbuds scene is Noise with its latest addition the affordable Noise Beads TWS earbuds for only Rs. 1499 (~$20).

The disappearing 3.5mm headphone jack trend in flagships has been ongoing for many years, ever since Apple released the iPhone 7 in 2016. And lately, it has also crept into the budget and mid-range segment with Xiaomi removing it from the Poco X3 GT, the Poco F3 series, the Mi 11X series, and Realme removing it from its Realme GT Neo2 and Realme X7 Pro.

The Noise Beads TWS earbuds have silently debuted via a listing on Amazon India with an introductory price of Rs. 1499, and going on sale in India starting 12 pm noon on December 24. The listing also suggests that after the sale, the earbuds are going to retail for Rs. 3,499 after the sale.

As for the build, the Noise Beads TWS earbuds come in a metallic finish as well as an ergonomic design with silicone tips for a convenient fit. The earbuds are rated for IPX5 sweat and splash resistance, convenient for joggers who always sweat on the move. The earbuds are lightweight too, as each Noise Beads earbud weighs 4.5 grams. The earbuds feature a beads-like design and come in a compact charging case. Users also have three different color options to choose from: white, gray and black.

For endurance, Noise claims that the Beads can deliver up to 18 hours of listening time on a single charge. The description specifies that each earbud has a dedicated battery that is rated to offer seven hours of playtime on a single charge. For charging, the Noise Beads comes in a charging case with a USB Type-C port for convenient charging.

Other features of the Noise Beads include Bluetooth v5.1 connectivity that is paired with a proprietary Hyper Sync technology, touch controls and support for voice assistants. The Noise Beads come equipped with Siri and Google Assistant, allowing the earbuds to be easily paired and used with either an iPhone or an Android phone.
