The iPhone is an iconic and very versatile device from Apple. There are so many human-angle stories relating to this very powerful smartphone. Apple continues to refine the iPhone, bringing more features that add to the power and durability of the iPhone. One of the beautiful features of new iPhones is the Magsafe, which has now gotten added functionality with the added power pack.
There has been a growing number of stories of how some iPhone users recovered their phones after days or weeks of losing the device. This has literally given people the impetus to fish for iPhones using the Magsafe. A South Carolina man, Jason Robinson of Horry County, found an iPhone while fishing a week ago in the Waccamaw River, local reports say. Robinson who is a fisherman went fishing on Sunday, July 18, and got the catch of the iPhone after a few fishes were caught. In his narrative, Robinson said he felt a strong grip on the line when the line obviously got secured by the Magsafe of the iPhone.
Robinson proceeded to seek a way of identifying the owner of the submerged iPhone, which he just fished from the river. Fortunately, he saw a photograph of a man and a woman attached to the iPhone case. He cleaned the picture and posted it on his Facebook page. Interestingly, within minutes he found the woman in the photograph. Subsequently, the iPhone was handed to Riley Johnson’s woman, whose husband Trinidy was also in the photo. Riley Johnson stated that the iPhone was lost about a year ago over Thanksgiving. Indeed, Robinson did not doubt that he had to do the correct thing by trying to reach out to the owners of the iPhone. He was never going to put the device to his personal use. It is not known what is the state of the rescued iPhone after one year of being underwater. However, Apple iPhones have been known to come back to life even after long contact with water.
Earlier today, Motorola confirmed that it will be announcing the Edge 20 and Edge 20 Pro smartphones in China on Aug. 5.

At the beginning of this month, two Motorola phones with XT2143-1 and XT2153-1 model numbers were spotted at China’s TENAA certification platform with full specs and images. These models are expected to arrive in the Chinese market as the Motorola Edge 20 (codenamed as Berlin) and Motorola Edge 20 Pro (codenamed as Pstar).

Micromax will be announcing the Micromax In 2b smartphone on July 30 in India. It will be the fourth In-series phone from the brand after the Micromax In Note 1, In 1b, and In 1. Ahead of the launch, the company has released a teaser video to reveal its design and color variants.
As can be seen in the teaser video, the upcoming In 2b will be available in three colors such as black, green, and blue. The rear shell of the device has a rectangle-shaped camera module that houses two cameras and an LED flash. A fingerprint scanner and a speaker grille are also available on the backside of the device. Its right edge has volume buttons and a power key.
The landing page of the Micromax In 2b is now available on Micromax India’s website. The listing reveals that it will be sporting a teardrop notch display. The page states that the device is powered by a gaming-focused chipset that includes a G52 GPU. It further states that the device is backed by a 5,000mAh battery that offers 160 hours of music playback, 50 hours of talk time, 20 hours of web browsing, and 15 hours of video streaming on a single charge.
The Geekbench listing of the device that was spotted last week revealed that it is powered by the Unisoc T610 chip. It features a 1.8GHz octa-core processor that tags along with ARM Mali-G52 graphics. This smartphone will be replacing the last year’s In 1b phone that was powered by the Helio G35 chip. The Geekbench listing had further revealed it has 4 GB of RAM and Android 11 OS.
A recent leak revealed that the Micromax In 2b will be equipped with a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD screen, an 8-megapixel front camera, and a 13-megapixel + 2-megapixel dual camera system. The device will offer users 64 GB of built-in storage, a microSD card slot, and 10W charging support.
The official case render of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 has just surfaced online and has revealed that the new foldable smartphone will indeed have support for the S Pen.
The case render were first shared by 91Mobiles, which confirms all the previous rumors and reports of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 featuring S Pen support. Looking at this case render, we can see that the South Korean tech giant is planning on making a case that will have a slot to store the stylus. Although, the company has yet to officially confirm the support for the S Pen for the Galaxy Z Fold 3, the case render has all but confirmed it.
Notably, the case render also reveals the design of the S Pen case for the smartphone. The render appears similar to the folio cases for other smartphones with an area dedicated to house the S Pen. The case would cover the rear side of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and will extending towards the front with a flip open cover to also protect the external display as well. Interestingly, the highlighting aspect of the case render is S Pen holder.
The S Pen is housed in a region that is directly over the hinge mechanism of the Galaxy Z Fold 3. In other words, the S Pen holder also protects the hinge of the smartphone. Furthermore, the holder also appears to be made from a rigid material with a smooth finish that would make it easier for users to remove or put back the stylus into the case. Although, this might make the device seem bulkier than it actually is.
Apple has apparently placed a massive order of more than 100 million A15 Bionic chips with TSMC. Through this, the company might be working on eliminating any issues with supply and components for its upcoming iPhone 13 lineup.
According to new rumors (Via WccFTech), the Cupertino based giant is expecting to see high demands for its 2021 iPhone series and has, thus, asked suppliers to raise production by 20 percent compared to the previous generation iPhone 12. The suppliers include the world’s largest contract chipmaker, TSMC, who will be supplying the iPhone maker with a whopping 100 million units of its custom chipset, as per the recent rumors.
Although, the shipments of A15 Bionic chipsets will not be solely for the upcoming iPhone 13. The company will also reportedly be keeping an extra stock of the latest chipset for any upcoming products. This might include the likes of the iPad Mini 6, which is expected to launch later this year with a redesign. Previous reports had also claimed that the A15 Bionic will power the next iPhone SE as well.
Despite other products also featuring the A15 Bionic chip, the majority of the new processors will be reserved for the iPhone 13 that is expected to see high demand. For those unaware, the A15 will sport a core configuration similar to the A14, with four power efficiency cores and 2 high powered cores. Although, the new chip will feature a new and advanced 5nm process from TSMC.

Earlier today (26th July 2021), Huawei officially announced that it would be launching the new Smart Screen V 75 Super on 29th July 2021. This would be the company’s first TV to sport Mini LED display and will also support Harmony OS 2.0.
The Chinese tech giant shared this news on its official Weibo account, revealing the launch date. According to Yu Chengdong, CEO of Consumer BG at Huawei, the new Smart Screen V 75 Super will feature 46,080 SuperMini LEDs. This will enable it to offer more realistic images with accurate details along with the ability to fine tune as well. For sound, the upcoming TV will offer a 20 unit Dewar theater level sound field.
Unfortunately, the company has only announce the launch date as of right now and finer details regarding this TV is still unknown. Although, this marks a major shift in the market with various brands commercializing on Mini LED display technology. Even the 12.9 inch iPad Pro that launched earlier this year featured this display panel and it is expected that Apple will also launch a MacBook with Mini LED as well. For those unaware, Mini LED brings various improvements and benefits over conventional LCD panels.
This includes offering higher brightness, with a wider color gamut and higher contrasts. Furthermore, it also consumes lesser power among other benefits. Notably, the July 29 launch date is the same day in which the brand will be launching its latest flagship series, the Huawei P50 lineup. So stay tuned for more updates.
Apple might just be planning on bringing Face ID system to the Mac. Known Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman believes that Face ID will be available in Macs within a “couple of years.”
Gurman shared this news on the latest edition of his Power On newsletter. In this, he stated that the Cupertino based giant’s goal is to have all of its products eventually support Face ID. In other words, even low end iPhone models like the iPhone SE and iPad Air that currently feature Touch ID will soon arrive with facial recognition technology in the near future. Gurman added that Touch ID is still a key factor in its low end products since it is a cheaper alternative than Face ID.
However, this might be changing in a few years. He added that “I expect all iPhones and iPads to transition to Face ID,” also stating that “Eventually, a camera embedded in the screen would help differentiate Apple’s pricier devices by eliminating the notch at the top. The facial recognition sensor gives Apple two central features: security and augmented reality.” In other words, the company might also be removing the notch on the iPhones during this shift.
The notchless iPhone could debut as early as 2023. Notably, Gurman had also previously reported that Apple’s recently launched redesigned iMacs were initially slated to feature Dace ID. But unfortunately, its implementation was delayed. Apparently, the primary reason for the delay was due to the Mac laptops screens, which are significantly thinner than the ones found in iPhones and iPads. This would make it harder for the brand to fit in key components like depth sensors for Face ID.
Earlier today (26th July 2021), Redmi had teaser the arrival of a new variant of its K40 Game Enhanced Edition smartphone. The teaser arrived with an “Operation Inverse Scale” title and now, a listing on an e-commerce platform has revealed that its an upcoming new color option for the device.
Unfortunately, the company has not directly revealed the design or color scheme of the new color variant. Although, looking at the teaser, we can assume it will have red as its primary color with shades of dark gray or black. The helmet of the figure in the teaser also hints at a red LED lights that is housed on the top and bottom of the rear camera module.
Furthermore, the device was also found listed on popular Chinese e-commerce website, JD.com, in which it was revealed that the smartphone will arrive in a single memory configuration, namely 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. Notably, the Chinese smartphone maker’s K40 Game Enhanced Edition Inverse Scale color will also be priced at 2,699 Yuan (roughly 416 US Dollars), which is about 200 Yuan (roughly 31 US Dollars) higher than the regular version. At the moment, the device is available for pre bookings.
Earlier this month, two Motorola phones with model numbers XT2143-1 and XT2153-1 were spotted at the TENAA certification site in China. These listings belong to the upcoming Motorola Edge 20 and Edge 20 Pro smartphones. Today, the company confirmed that it will be unleashing the Edge 20 series of phones at 7:30 PM (local time) on Aug. 5 in China.
The TENAA listing of both phones and leaked information shared by reliable tipster Evan Blass had revealed that the Edge 20 and Edge 20 Pro will be equipped with a 108-megapixel primary camera. The official poster also hints that the Edge 20 series will sport a 108-megapixel camera.
The Edge 20v and Edge 20 Pro smartphones are expected to arrive with a 6.67-inch FHD+ OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. For selfies, the Edge 20 may come with a 32-megapixel front camera whereas its rear shell may possess a 16-megapixel selfie snapper.
The Edge 20’s rear camera setup may include a 108-megapixel primary camera, a 16-megapixel ultrawide lens, an 8-megapixel telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom. The Edge 20 Pro may feature the same camera setup, but its telephoto lens may support 3x optical zoom.
The Snapdragon 778G is likely to power the Edge 20, while the Edge 20 Pro may come with Snapdragon 870 chip. Both phones may come with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of storage. These devices will come preinstalled with Android 11 OS.
The Edge 20 may house a 4,000mAh battery, whereas the Edge 20 Pro. Both phones are expected to arrive with other common features like an in-screen fingerprint scanner, fast charging, and a Google Assistant button.
Earlier this year, Micromax launched its new IN series of smartphones, debuting the IN 1 smartphone in March. Now, the company is gearing up to launch its successor in the Indian market and has already scheduled an event for the same on 30th July.
Now, just days ahead of the launch event from India’s homegrown firm, a smartphone with codename E7446 has surfaced on benchmarking platform Geekbench, which is believed to be the upcoming Micromax IN 2 or IN Note 2.
As per the Geekbench listing, the smartphone is powered by MediaTek Helio G95 chipset clocked at 2GHz and packs 4GB of RAM. We expect the device to have a couple of more memory variants when it gets launched.
It also reveals that the device will be running the Android 11 operating system out-of-the-box, likely with the brand’s own custom user interface on top. The listing shows a single-core score of 500 and a multi-core score of 1,546 on Geekbench.
A recent leak revealed that the Micromax IN 2 will come powered by Unisoc T610 SoC, so the phone which appeared on Geekbench could be the IN Note 2. To know for sure, we will have to wait for the official launch event in a couple of days.
If the leaks are to be believed, then the upcoming IN 2 smartphone from Micromax will feature a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD display and a waterdrop notch and have a dual-camera setup on the back consisting of a 13-megapixel primary sensor and a 2-megapixel secondary lens. On the front, it will feature an 8-megapixel snapper for taking selfies.
The device is said to be powered by a 5,000mAh battery with 10W charging support. The Micromax IN 1B was introduced with a starting price of ₹6,999 (~$94) and we expect its successor to launch in the Indian market with similar pricing.
A few days ago, OnePlus officially launched its latest Nord series mid-range smartphone in the Indian market, dubbed OnePlus Nord 2 5G. As the name indicates, the phone is a successor to the OnePlus Nord that debuted last year.
Today, the company has started selling the device in India through the online marketplace Amazon and OnePlus.in for the Amazon Prime subscribers and OnePlus Red Club members.
The 6GB RAM + 128GB storage model is priced at ₹27,999 (~$376) while the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant costs ₹29,999 (~$403). The 12GB RAM model with 256GB of internal storage is priced at ₹34,999 (~$470). Currently, the device comes in two color options — Blue Haze and Gray Sierra. The third color option — Green Woods, which has a leather-like back finish, will go on sale in India from next month.
Coming to the specifications, the OnePlus Nord 2 5G smartphone features a 6.43-inch Fluid AMOLED Full HD+ display offering 2400 x 1080 pixels screen resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a 20:9 aspect ratio.
Under the hood, the device is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 1200-AI chipset, coupled with up to 12GB LPDDR4x RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. It doesn’t come with a microSD card slot, meaning there’s no way to expand the phone’s storage capacity.
In the camera department, there’s a triple-camera setup on the back consisting of a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 primary sensor with f/1.88 aperture, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 2-megapixel monochrome sensor. On the front side, it features a 32-megapixel Sony IMX615 snapper for taking selfies and video calling.
Connectivity options on the device include 5G, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth v5.2, NFC, and USB Type-C port. The phone also comes with an in-display fingerprint sensor for added security. It runs the Android 11 operating system with the company’s own OxygenOS 11.3 custom interface which is based on OPPO’s ColorOS 11.3 after both the companies merged their codebase. The device is powered by a 4,500mAh battery that supports 65W Warp Charge.
iQOO, the sub-brand of Vivo that makes premium smartphones, launched the iQOO 7 5G smartphone in the Indian market back in April. At the time, the device was announced in two color options — Solid Ice Blue and Storm Black.
A few days ago, the company has announced a third color option in the market — Monster Orange. Now, this new iQOO 7 5G in Monster Orange color is available for purchase in India through Amazon and iQOO.com for a price of ₹31,990 (~$430) that offers 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage variant.
As a part of Amazon’s Prime Day launch offers, the company is providing flat ₹2,000 off with Amazon coupons as well as a 6-month screen replacement. Customers with HDFC Credit or Debit Card can also get a 10 percent instant discount.
The specifications of the smartphone remain the same. It features a 6.62-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display that offers 2400 x 1080 pixels screen resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, 20:9 aspect ratio, HDR10+ support, up to 1,300 nits brightness, and MEMC.
Underneath, the device comes powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 octa-core processor. Although it comes with a maximum memory of 12GB, this Monster Orange color variant offers only a single model which packs 8GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage. The phone also supports a liquid cooling system and 6000mm² graphite board that reduces the temperature by up to 11 percent.
As for the photography needs, there’s a 48-megapixel Sony IMX598 primary camera sensor, coupled with a 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 2-megapixel monochrome depth sensor. On the front side, it features a 16-megapixel camera sensor, allowing users to take selfies and make video calls.

It is running the Android 11 operating system out-of-the-box with Funtouch OS 11.1 custom user interface. The phone is powered by a 4,400mAh battery and supports 66W fast charging technology.
Android flagship smartphones have been focusing on fast charging technology for the past few years and the technology has advanced so much that some brands are now set to offer more than 100W fast charging support on their premium phones.
Technology giant Apple, despite being one of the leading smartphone makers, has been lacking when it comes to offering new technologies and trendy features on its devices. It was the late entrant in supporting 5G connectivity on its device and still lacks way behind other major smartphone makers when it comes to fast charging technology.
Apple iPhone 13 Pro Render
However, it seems that the Cupertino-based tech giant plans to increase the charging speed for the coming iPhone lineup. As per the report coming from MyDrivers, the iPhone 13 lineup could have support for 25W fast charging.
While 25W fast charging is still no match compared to the 65W fast charging support offered by several Android smartphone manufacturers, it is better than the 20W charging that the current iPhone 12 series offers.
If the reports are to be believed, then the upcoming Apple iPhone 13 series will come powered by the new Apple A15 Bionic processor with six-core design. This time, the company is expected to offer a 1TB storage model as well, doubling the storage space in the top-end option which currently maxes out at 512GB.
The phones are expected to come with more advanced displays, improved cameras, and a smaller notch compared to the current model. We previously reported about two new color options for the upcoming phones — Sunset Gold and Rose Gold. We expect to know more about the phones in the coming weeks and months as the launch date nears.
Samsung has released a video advert for the Galaxy Chromebook Go, and while the title of the video doesn’t say, it is specifically for the LTE version. We noticed that the ad reveals one important detail, actually a feature the standard WI-Fi model doesn’t have.
At the 0:40 second mark of the video, we see the boy interact with the display via touch input which means the device has a touchscreen. This feature is not available on the Wi-Fi version and comes as a surprise as the official spec page doesn’t mention a touchscreen is available on select models.
With the addition of a touchscreen, the LTE version of the Galaxy Chromebook Go may cost significantly more. The notebook is also expected to be available with 8GB of RAM and in 64GB and 128GB storage options. With these specs, the highest-specced variant of the Galaxy Chromebook Go will definitely cross the $400 mark. If you decide to pick up a USI stylus, then you may be spending as much as $450.
The Galaxy Chromebook Go has a 14-inch 1366 x 768 TFT display. It is powered by an Intel Celeron N4500 processor and packs a 42.3Wh battery that should provide up to 12 hours of usage on a single charge. It has Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, and a nano-SIM slot for the LTE version. There are two USB-C ports, a single USB A (3.2) port, and a mic/headphone combo jack. Samsung ships it with a 45W USB-C power brick.
We still don’t know when the LTE version will be available but once it is available for purchase, we will be sure to let you know.
After Realme, even Xiaomi decided to launch a “GT” phone. We are talking about the POCO F3 GT, which is actually a gaming-centric phone and flagship killer offering amazing specifications at a modest price. Is the GT solution by Xiaomi able to compete with the Realme GT which is actually the first GT phone ever? It surely belongs to the same segment, but which are the differences between their specifications and which one is better? This comparison between POCO F3 GT and Realme GT will try to let you find the answers to these questions.

Design
If we consider the Racing Yellow color variant of the Realme GT, it is undoubtedly a more attractive phone when it comes to aesthetics. It has a leather rear cover with a glass stripe on the left making it very suggestive and original: it reminds me of a sports car and that is where the GT moniker comes from. Further, the Realme GT is a more compact phone because it packs a smaller battery and it comes with a smaller display. The phone also comes in more affordable color options sporting a glass back just like the POCO F3 GT. On the other hand, POCO F3 GT offers physical maglev triggers which will please gamers a lot.
Display
Are you looking for the most advanced display? If so, go for the POCO F3 GT without thinking twice. It has an AMOLED display that is able to show up to one billion colors, unlike the Realme GT. Further, it has the HDR10+ certification improving the quality on streaming platforms. Despite the POCO F3 GT has a superior display, Realme GT is all but disappointing. The phone has an AMOLED display as well, with a 120 Hz refresh rate. But unfortunately, it has an inferior color accuracy. On the other hand, it has an in-display fingerprint reader, while the fingerprint scanner is side-mounted on the POCO F3 GT.
Specs & Software
The best hardware department belongs to the Realme GT: it is fueled by the Snapdragon 888 mobile platform paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of internal UFS 3.1 storage. With the POCO F3 GT, you get an inferior but still amazing MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset, as well as a max of 8 GB of RAM. So, not only the SoC is inferior, but you also get a lower quantity of RAM: there is no doubt about the fact that Realme GT is more powerful. The phones run Android 11 out of the box.
Camera
These phones are flagship killers but not camera phones. Their camera setups are very similar and they are midrange-class. POCO F3 GT and Realme GT are equipped with a 64 MP main camera, an 8 MP ultrawide sensor, and a 2 MP macro camera, as well as a 16 MP front camera. The photo quality is more or less at the same level. If you need a camera phone, you’d better focus on something else because these phones are not what you are looking for.
An important advantage of the POCO F3 GT over the Realme GT is the battery. The phone packs a bigger 5065 mAh battery, while the Realme GT has just 4500 mAh. This should allow the POCO F3 GT to last more on a single charge, even though we had no chance to test the battery life as it just went official. The POCO F3 GT supports 67W fast charging, while its rival has 65W fast charging, but it charges faster because its battery is smaller. None of these devices support wireless charging.
Price
The Realme GT carries a €399/$470 starting price tag in the global market. The POCO F3 GT is not sold globally and it launched just in India with a starting price of about €310/$365 at the actual change. Overall, the Realme GT offers a superior hardware department and a better design, but the POCO F3 GT has a bigger battery, a better display, and a physical trigger which are very useful for gamers. Which one would you pick?
The OnePlus Nord 2 and the POCO F3 GT both launched last week, and for a lot of folks who plan to pick up a premium mid-range smartphone, both devices will definitely be on their shortlist.
The two phones offer a lot at a reasonable price such as AMOLED displays, high refresh rates, powerful processors, and super fast charging. However, there are significant differences that will sway buyers to one side or serve as dealbreakers. For this week’s poll, we want to know which of these two devices you prefer.
Is it the OnePlus Nord 2 or the gaming-centric POCO F3 GT? Please take the poll and let us know which device you prefer. Also, drop a comment telling us what you think about the two phones.
In-flight engine failure can occur due to several factors, and it becomes an emergency as the pilots struggle to bring the aircraft safely to land. With such an increased workload for the pilots, committing errors could be heightened, and this may prove fatal.
With the raft of autonomous driving and flying applications currently in the tech space, Garmin International has announced its Smart Glide flight safety tool to help pilots effectively respond to emergencies resulting from an engine failure.
The Garmin Smart Glide will be available from August 2021 on the GTN Xi series navigators. It will be available as a software upgrade for free but the Smart Glide activation button sells for $129.
The Garmin Smart Glide will reduce the pilot’s emergency workload by automatically engaging the autopilot and steering the aircraft toward the nearest airport.
In the event of an engine failure, the pilot is faced with several decisions and precise calculations to ensure the safety of the passengers and crew. These tasks include putting the aircraft on the correct glide angle, setting the autopilot, trying to restart the engine, looking for the nearest airport, and sending off a Mayday message, while also keeping a calm mien.
The Garmin Smart Glide works with other navigational technologies to seamlessly and efficiently take over some of the emergency tasks both automatically and manually.
The device uses all the necessary details to set the correct glide angle and speed while also interfacing with Flight Control and providing important details to the pilot. In the situation where there is no airport within range, the Smart Glide notifies the pilot and continues searching. It also helps the pilot to switch the transponder to transmit the 7700 emergency code quickly.
The Garmin Smart Glide tool is just one of the fast-expanding array of autonomous flight tools from the stable of Garmin.
