iPhone 13 model with a notch-less screen spotted in an Apple TV+ comedy series

Aug 30, 2021

Although Apple is yet to reveal the design of the upcoming iPhone 13 models, several leaked renders have given us an idea of what the rear design looks like but that of the display is still unknown. If you are expecting a notch design, you may be in for a shocker. An Apple device believed to be the iPhone 13 has appeared on a comedy series on Apple TV+ called Ted Lasso played by Jason Sudeikis.

In the recently aired episode six of season two titled “The Signal”, viewers spotted a notch-less iPhone 13 model in two different scenes. The phone did have the custom iPhone UI but the notch was lacking. Also, the rear design was spotted revealing a dual-camera setup similar to that of the vanilla iPhone 13 as spotted in some of the leaks.

Since 2017 when Apple released the iPhone X, the notch has been an integral part of the iPhone design, housing some key components for Face ID and the selfie camera. This year’s model was expected to feature a smaller-sized notch as Apple was believed to have shifted the Face ID components to under the screen or may have opted for Touch ID instead.

While it looks unlikely that Apple will intentionally leak the iPhone 13 design in such a manner, there is the possibility that this may indeed be the iPhone 13 expected to launch in September. Alternatively, it is possible that Apple employed digital special effects to mask the actual design of the device. This sounds plausible.

Microsoft Surface Go 3 appears on Geekbench packing some impressive specs

Aug 30, 2021

A current Geekbench listing of the Microsoft Surface Go 3 has revealed an impressive array of new features that are now primed for an imminent release, going by the listing on the Geekbench platform. The new benchmark scores for the Surface Go 3 however indicated that there could be up to two versions of the Microsoft Surface Go 3, going by the Geekbench details.

One of the models is powered by an Intel Pentium Gold with 4GB of RAM, while the other model will be powered by Intel Core i3 which has 8GB of RAM. This follows the pattern of the predecessors of the devices, as the two models sport the Pentium Gold and Intel Core options for their CPUs.

The performance of the two models on the single-core and multi-core scores show that both models pack some decent power in them. The Microsoft Surface Go with a Pentium Gold processor scored 3197 and 5643, respectively, which far eclipsed the performance of the Surface Go 2, hovering around 2, 200 for single-core and 4400 for multi-score.

The Intel Core i3 powered Surface Go model even had a better performance. It clocked 45659 and 7643 for single and multi-core performance, respectively. Much is still left in the realm of speculation concerning the Microsoft Surface Go 3, as we inch closer to its eventual launch. There are other devices lined up for unveiling by Microsoft, and we await the actual rollout of the growing array of unreleased products.

Aug 30, 2021

After announcing the Gen 5 in 2019, Fossil has announced its successor today which is dubbed the Gen 6. The new smartwatch brings key upgrades including a more powerful processor but doesn’t ship with the latest version of Wear OS.

The Fossil Gen 6’s main upgrade is the new Snapdragon Wear 4100+, one of two chipsets Qualcomm announced last year for smartwatches. The smartwatch is the first to feature this new chip. Fossil says that the new processor brings a performance improvement of up to 30% when compared to the Gen 5. Users should see faster app load times and reduced power consumption.

Another new feature is the addition of a blood oxygen level monitor (SpO2 sensor). The watch also has a 24-hour heart rate that provides continuous heart rate monitoring. Fossil claims the sensor has been improved and it works better in more situations.

1 of 3

The Fossil Gen 6 has Google Assistant built-in, so with the “Ok Google” wake word, you can ask questions, control smart home devices, and set reminders. There is also support for Google Pay, music playback control, and the ability to make and receive calls when connected to a smartphone. Unfortunately, the smartwatch runs the older Wear OS 2 out of the box. If you don’t mind waiting until next year, you will get the Wear OS 3 update.

Fossil Gen 6 Specs

1.28-inch AMOLED screen with a 416 x 416 resolution
1GB RAM
8GB storage
Snapdragon Wear 4100+
Bluetooth 5.0
NFC SE
Wi-Fi
Off-body IR, Gyroscope
PPG heart rate sensor
Accelerometer, altimeter, ambient light sensor, compass, gyroscope
3 ATM water resistance

The Fossil Gen 6 has a round dial and comes in a variety of designs. Buyers will be able to choose from 10 different configurations which start at $299 and go up to $319. Fossil also has straps in different colors and designs for the different configurations available. Fossil is already taking pre-orders and it says shipping will happen close to September 27.

Aug 30, 2021

Huawei, the China-based technology giant which has been struggling to retain its position in the market, is set to announce something exciting tomorrow. The company has officially shared a new teaser poster hinting at the arrival of new products as well as a new exclusive partner, details about which will be revealed on 31st August.

While the company has not yet revealed what these upcoming products are, the teaser poster gives us a glimpse at the part of the product which seems to be a printer or a router, but this is just speculation.

Huawei already has a best-selling lineup of routers and was also leading the market in the year 2019. Earlier this year, the company started selling Huawei Router AX2 Pro in China. If it is indeed planning to launch a new router, then the partnership with another company means it could be a high-end product.

Also, the partner for these new products has not been revealed by the company nor the details have leaked. This means that to know with which company Huawei is partnered up with for its new products and what the partnership entails, we will have to wait for the official announcement tomorrow.

Previously, the company had partnered with Leica for camera technology on its premium smartphone. Since 2016, all the flagship smartphones from the Chinese giant featured Leica’s technology, pushing the boundaries of smartphone photography. However, the partnership ended this year, with the P50 series smartphones becoming the last product made under Huawei and Leica’s partnership.

Aug 30, 2021

Back in June, ZMI GaN Charger 65W 1A1C was released in China. Now two months later, the brand has launched a 33W version of this charger without GaN (Gallium Nitride). The new product is called ZMI 33W Charger 1A1C and it is advertised as compatible with iPhone 13 series.

ZMI 33W Charger 1A1C Specifications and Features

The new ZMI charger comes in a matte green color option. As the name suggests, it supports up to 33W output and features two ports (USB Type-A, USB Type-C). It also sports a foldable pin.

The power adapter supports Xiaomi’s proprietary charging protocols (22.5W, 33W), USB PD (Power Delivery), and Apple 20W charging. Hence, it can be used to charge Xiaomi group smartphones, the latest iPhones, and other USB PD compatible devices. Additionally, as mentioned in the beginning, ZMI claims that this charger can be also used to fuel the upcoming iPhone 13 series.

It is worth noting that only the USB Type-C port maxes out at 33W, while the USB Type-A port is limited to 27W. Both the ports can be used at the same time and during those sessions, the power adapter is capped at 22.5W.

Lastly, like any other ZMI charger, there’s also a Xiaomi variant of the ZMI 33W Charger 1A1C in white color. But interestingly, that product is sold in Taiwan instead of China.

ZMI 33W Charger 1A1C Price and Availability

The ZMI 33W Charger 1A1C is priced at ¥79 ($12) in China. But for a limited time, it will be available at ¥69 ($11). The charger is scheduled to go on sale from September 1.

MIUI 12.5 update is now available for POCO X3 in India

By

Aug 30, 2021

The POCO X3 was one of the best smartphones launched in India in 2020. The handset debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 10. But unfortunately, it got the Android 11 update only a few weeks back in the country. Now, it has also started receiving the MIUI 12.5 update.

POCO released the POCO X3 in India as an alternative to the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max in the region. A higher variant of this device called POCO X3 Pro followed later.

The latter phone debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 11. Hence, it got the update to MIUI 12.5 earlier. On the other hand, the former is getting the new MIUI update only now as it was treated with Android 11 at around the same time.

Having said that, the MIUI 12.5 update for the POCO X3 in India arrives with build number V12.5.2.0.RJGINXM. Apart from bringing new features, the new software update also bumps up the security patch level to July 2021.

Like any other OTA system update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. Hence, some users might receive it earlier, while others may have to wait for some time.

The POCO X3 has so far only got access to a single Android update. It is yet to get any major MIUI update. Hence, the phone will likely get more than MIUI 13 and Android 12 in the future.

Taiwanese fabless semiconductor company MediaTek announced the Dimensity 810 chipset alongside the 6nm Dimensity 920 on August 11. At that time, there were speculations that Realme will be the first smartphone maker to launch a Dimenity 810-powered phone after Madhav Sheth sought the opinion of fans if they would want the company to be the first to bring MediaTek Dimensity 810 Processor in the world.

Realme India has now confirmed today that it will launch a Diemsity 810-powered smartphone soon, the first in the world. The teaser was silent on the exact launch date and the name of the expected smartphone. However, there are speculations that the smartphone will be the Realme 8s. It is expected to feature a 6.5-inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate alongside a 64MP primary camera and a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W fast charging.

The Dimensity 810 chip is a 6nm chip that sits below the 7nm Dimensity 820. It features 8 cores made up of four Cortex-A76 cores clocked at 2.4GHz and four Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 2.0GHz. MediaTek claims that it brings a 20% increase in performance compared to the previous generation. The GPU is the Mali-G57 MC2.

Another First has been added to the long list of #realme!

OPPO A16K, OPPO A55 get essential certifications ahead of launch

The OPPO A series is the company’s most affordable smartphone lineup. These devices don’t offer value-for-money features like the similarly priced products from Xiaomi group as well as realme. However, still they are quite popular. According to findings, the next phones in the lineup will be OPPO A16K and OPPO A55.

The upcoming OPPO A16K and OPPO A55 have been certified by three different agencies, namely BIS, NBTC, and EEC. Their certifications suggest that they could be launched in India, Southeast Asia, and India.

Going by the brandings, the OPPO A16K with model number CPH2349 should be the cheaper of the two. On the other hand, the OPPO A55 sporting model number CPH2325 is expected to be the 4G variant of the OPPO A55 5G from earlier this year.

The certifications don’t reveal anything about these handsets, except that they are limited to 4G connectivity. Fortunately, these phones are also listed in the Camera FV-5 database. Hence, we know some of their camera specs.

Being budget smartphones, the forthcoming OPPO A series devices don’t house impressive cameras. The OPPO A16K and the OPPO A55 may come with 2MP and 4MP front-facing cameras respectively. Lastly, the latter handset might feature a 13MP primary sensor.

Apart from the above-mentioned specifics, we know nothing about these soon-to-be-launched OPPO A series smartphones. But we expect to learn more about them before their official announcement in the coming days.

Apple, Google face scrutiny in South Korea over in-app payment rules

Google and Apple are facing scrutiny in South Korea over their in app payment rules. Both companies were criticized by the government in South Korea, which is considering a ban on their payment rules that could also potentially shake up their dominance in the industry.

According to a TechCrunch report, the Cupertino based and search engine giant are facing trouble in South Korea due to their established rules for how third party apps in their app stores charge for services. In the country, parliamentary committee passed a bill earlier this month to prevent both firms from charging software developer’s commissions on in app purchases. As of right now, this bill is the first of its kind in the world.

Furthermore, the final vote for this planned ban on Google and Apple payment rules by all members of the National Assembly, which was expected to be held in a plenary session on the same day, has been delayed at the moment. Media reports stated that the plenary session was postponed to August 30. If the new bill is adopted, South Korea will become the first nation that banned the global tech firms from charging third party developers on in app payments.

The bill has been called the “Anti-Google law” and was approved by the legislation and judiciary committee of the National Assembly to revise the Telecommunication Business Act. In a statement, Apple said that “the proposed Telecommunications Business Act will put users who purchase digital goods from other sources at risk of fraud, undermine their privacy protections, make it difficult to manage their purchases, and features like ‘Ask to Buy’ and Parental Controls will become less effective. We believe user trust in App Store purchases will decrease as a result of this proposal—leading to fewer opportunities for the over 482,000 registered developers in Korea who have earned more than KRW8.55 trillion to date with Apple.”

TV prices are going up since the beginning of 2021. This is due to the prolonged global shortage of LCD panels. This trend is now said to change in H2 2021. It will be due to the rising competition among the TV OEMs.

The price of LCD panels has been increasing for more than a year. As a result, televisions got expensive starting in early 2021. Thankfully, we can finally expect the price to go down as per a report by Omdia.

According to the research firm, the price of LCD TV panels has started declining from Q3 2021. This trend is forecasted to continue in the second half of 2021.

The dip in panel price will be driven by the competition among the television manufacturers, the widening gap in profitability between Chinese and South Korean television manufacturers, and strong bargaining power. Since the supply chain has now become hard to predict, OEMs need competitive strategies to make use of the situation.

If all goes well, companies will stop hiking the price of their TVs. As of now, all we can do is hope for the best. The results will probably start appearing in the last quarter of 2021.

Huawei has just patent another smartphone that features a rollable display. We had previously reported on a possible future Mate phone with an Arc display and what appeared to be a Mate X Rollable a couple of weeks ago. Now, a new patent reveals another futuristic Mate model with a rollable display and a triple camera setup.

According to a LetsGoDigital report, the Chinese tech giant has patent a new device that sports a wrap around display that cover the front side and most of the rear panel as well. But its most highlighting aspect is that this display can be pulled out from one side on the front, which extends the display to a small tablet size. When extended, the display is extended from the right side of the handset, while the display on the rear rolls towards the front.

Notably, Ts Designer even offers us a 3D concept render of this device and its rollable display in action on his YouTube channel. Looking at this video, we can observe the device in three modes. One is where the device resembles the Xiaomi Mi MIX Alpha in its compact form, while the other two is when its screen is rolled out. In one of the positions, the screen is enlarged by 35 percent or only extended to half of its total capacity, while the other has it completely rolled out, reaching a size 70 percent larger than its compact position.

In other words, a 6.5 inch display can reach a size of up to 11 inch to achieve a tablet format. This is basically the size offered by modern day foldable smartphones. Furthermore, it is also quite a practical design and could very well a Mate series of phone that launches sometime in the future. The lack of a hinge and folding mechanism could also ensure no creases being formed on the surface of the display as well. The front side may even house an in display camera technology, while the rear offers a triple camera setup. Keep in mind that this is still a patent and it is unknown if the company is actually working on such a product.
