Earlier today (4th August 2021), Oppo announced its next generation under screen camera technology for smartphones. The company said that it combined the best in hardware innovation with its proprietary AI algorithms for the new camera tech, which aims to offer a full screen experience in upcoming devices.

The Chinese smartphone maker stated that its under screen camera solution would be able to maintain the integrity and consistency of the entire screen, even when the camera is in use or in standby. Through this, it would be capable of a balance between consistent screen and camera image quality, or as the brand put it “an under screen camera solution with no compromises. Notably, Oppo also saw various breakthroughs during the development of the new camera technology.

This includes inconsistent display quality in the screen area right above the under display sensor and poor image quality due to the obstruction of the camera by the display panel. By tackling these known issues of the camera tech, the company will be able to offer an upgraded under screen camera solution that promises to bring the full screen experience on smartphones to the next level. The company showcased the under screen camera technology in a new prototype device.

This device arrived with several new innovations in structure design and AI algorithms. Notable breakthroughs include innovative pixel geometry, with the new solution shrinking the size of each pixel without decreasing the number of pixels to ensure 400ppi density even in the camera region. Furthermore, Oppo replaced the traditional screen wiring with an innovative transparent wiring material. This newer material uses a manufacturing process that reduces its wiring width by 50 percent, allowing for finer display quality. Along with these innovations, it also arrives with improved control of screen accuracy, color, and brightness along with improved reliability and lifespan.

Earlier, news broke that the upcoming iPhone 13‘s will ship with improved fast charging technology. Reports indicated that the series will support 25W fast charging technology. Now, in addition to the previous leak, we’ve another battery-related leak. This time it’s about the increased battery size and smaller components in the upcoming iPhones.

According to Digitimes, Apple will equip bigger batteries for upcoming iPhones. That said, this would only happen after getting some extra space to place the bigger battery cell. It is said that Apple will use smaller components in order to save space for this bigger battery.

Reportedly, Apple has also increased the adoption of IPD(Integrated Passive Devices) for the peripherals in the upcoming phones. Again, these peripherals would be smaller in size.

With a drastic increase in the adoption of IPDs, the chip manufacturing partners like TSMC and Amkor are slated to get solid business opportunities. Not just iPhones, even iPads, and MacBooks will get smaller components.

Additionally, Apple has also approved TSMC’s 6th generation chips for mass production. These chips will be used in upcoming phones.

Moreover, a previous leak revealed that the Apple iPhone 13 series will be thicker in size as compared to the current iPhone 12 series. Although the leak from Digitimes didn’t really reveal if this year’s iPhone 13 series will equip these chips. But, we can at least expect future iPhones to get a big battery and smaller components.

Realme now has over 100 million users globally; India remains its biggest market

Aug 4, 2021

Earlier this year, in March, Realme revealed that it had around 70 million users, having sold 42 million smartphones last year. At the time, the company said that it was aiming to have a global user base of 100 million users by the end of this year. Realme has now achieved that goal well ahead of its deadline.

Madhav Sheth, CEO of Realme India and Europe has revealed that the company now has more than 100 million users globally. Out of those 100 million users, around 50 million are from India, making it the biggest market for the brand.

This isn’t surprising given that Realme was started in India as a sub-brand of OPPO and during the initial years, the company was present exclusively in India. It’s been a couple of years since Realme started expanding to other regions around the world.

The brand is now gearing up to launch new smartphones in the Indian market, as revealed in the latest episode of #AskMadhav. The company will be launching the Realme GT series on 18th August in India, which includes Realme GT 5G, GT Neo, GT Master Edition, and GT Master Explorer Edition. It is expected to have a starting price of around ₹30,000 (~$404).

Realme has unveiled its latest concept smartphone named Realme Flash, touted as the world’s first Android phone to come with support for magnetic wireless charging. The company has also launched two models of Realme MagDart magnetic wireless chargers but there’s no information about pricing and availability in the market.

Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 5100 chipset for wearable devices leaks online

By

-

Aug 4, 2021

Last year, Qualcomm had launched Snapdragon Wear 4100 SoC for wearable devices and now the company is gearing up to launch its successor, which is likely to be called Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 5100.

Folks at XDA-Developers have come across build ID “LAW.UM.2.0-00700-SW5100.00” while digging code in Qualcomm’s Code Aurora Forum. In this context, “LAW” stands for “Linux Android Wear” and for those who are unaware, Android Wear is the operating system that is now known as Wear OS.

The “UM” stands for “Unified Modem” and “SW5100” is referring to the Snapdragon Wear 5100 name. As per the report, the chip is codenamed “monaco.” It is expected to be based on Qualcomm’s “bengal” platform.

This new chip could come with a quad-core processor with ARM Cortex-A73 cores. For comparison, the current-generation Snapdragon 4100 comes with a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 configuration.

The report goes on to mention that code snippets indicate that this new chip for wearable devices is based on Android 10 and Android 11. So, there’s a question mark about the support for the Wear OS 3 platform which is a unified version of Google and Samsung’s operating system for wearable devices.

Qualcomm has announced that the existing Snapdragon Wear 3100, 4100, and 4100+ chips are capable of running Wear OS 3 but it’s unlikely that the device manufacturers will be releasing a major update for the devices.

A few days ago, the company also announced the Wearables Ecosystem Accelerator program, which aims to have Qualcomm at the center of the upcoming Wear OS devices.

While Qualcomm has released a few chips for wearable devices, it has not been able to make its mark in this segment. Even smartphone makers are now slowly designing their own chips, Google is the latest example with its Tensor SoC. It will be interesting to see what Qualcomm has up its sleeves to remain a dominant player in the market.
