Google Chrome to receive desktop screenshot tool with Lens support

Jul 27, 2021

Google is planning on bringing a new feature to its Chrome browser for desktops. A new update will offer users a new screenshot tool that will arrive with Lens integration that would boost its usefulness.

As of right now, one can take a screenshot in two ways, with the first being the Window’s built in screenshot tool or by installing a dedicated Chrome extension to take a screenshot. While the Android version of Chrome has also recently received a screenshot tool in the share menu, it is only very practical since it can only capture what is being displayed on the screen and sharing it.

But now, the desktop version is set to receive an expanded share menu (Via 9To5Google) that will have various options like “Copy link,” “Copy link text,” and other screenshot options as well. At the moment, the feature is still in early development and will initially be limited to taking a simple capture. Although, these screenshots will be saved on to your clipboard and will offer options like download, edit, and sharing. The feature will likely arrive in platforms like Chrome OS and Windows 10.

Notably, the screenshot tool will have a built in editor and will also support Google Lens by a simply right click on the image, similar to the Android feature. This implies that Chrome will be expanding its Lens integration that will even enable click and drag to select a region on the screenshot to search with Lens, which would be quite useful in websites that do not allow for right clicking images.

Earlier today (27th July 2021), Xiaomi sub brand, Redmi, announced that it will be launching its own laptops in India on 3rd August 2021. The new notebooks will be a part of its RedmiBook lineup and will expand the brand’s product offerings in the region.

The Chinese smartphone maker announced that it aims to broaden its device portfolio in India and aims on launching products like power banks, earbuds, smart bands, and more, which would compliment its smartphones and the users’ lifestyles. Previously, the company had even teased the arrival of the laptops during the Redmi Note 10T launch conference. Now, we have an official date for the announcement of the upcoming laptops.

Unfortunately, we have no finer details as to which models the company would be launching in India at the moment. Although, the brand had recently announced certain new models for its home market of China. Back in May 2021, the company announced the new RedmiBook Pro 14 and 15 laptops in China. These laptops feature AMD’s latest Ryzen 5000 series processors instead of the Intel chipsets that were found in the previous iterations.

Thus, we might see similar notebooks launching in India as well that could sport either a 14 inch or 15 inch panel. Furthermore, the RedmiBook Pro series in China arrived with DDR4 RAM and NVMe PCIe SSD storage as well, which was also offered in the Mi Notebook lineup that Xiaomi had launched in India in the past. So stay tuned for more, as we will be providing updates when additional information is available regarding the new laptops.

OnePlus Buds Pro offer better low-frequency noise cancellation than the Apple AirPods Pro: Pete Lau

Jul 27, 2021

OnePlus announced the OnePlus Buds Pro alongside the OnePlus Nord 2. These new pair of truly wireless earphones are the company’s first with support for ANC (Active Noise Cancellation). The product is set to go official in China on July 29. Ahead of that, Pete Lau, the brand’s CEO, compares them with the Apple AirPods Pro on Weibo.

Pete Lau has been teasing the features of the OnePlus Buds Pro on Weibo since yesterday (July 26). However, it is worth noting that this product is already official in global markets and it is scheduled to go on sale from late August. Hence, we know everything about it.

So why is he teasing the features of a product which is already official? Because the price reveal for the Chinese market will be happening on July 29. The brand is also expected to announce the sale date on the same day.

Coming to the main topic, as per Pete Lau, the OnePlus Buds Pro offers better low-frequency noise cancellation than the Apple AirPods Pro. This is a bold claim as Apple’s premium TWS has set a benchmark for truly wireless earphones since its release.

Pete says that Apple is a strong competitor since it also ‘values the experience and pursues the ultimate’. Hence, his brand has one-upped the performance of the OnePlus Buds Pro over the AirPods Pro by doing a lot of special comparisons and optimization adjustments.

Last but not least, he believes if a OnePlus product has become better than Apple’s, then his brand’s products must have reached a higher level to a certain extent.

Jul 27, 2021

Earlier this year, Xiaomi debuted its first self-developed ISP (Image Signal Processor) chip called Surge C1. This silicon is used in the company’s first foldable smartphone – Mi MIX Fold. Months later, news broke out that both OPPO and vivo are also working on their in-house ISP chips. Now more information about these developments has appeared online.

OPPO Find X3 Pro Gloss Black Featured 01 — OPPO Find X3 Pro

According to Tencent’s ‘Deep Web’ report (via ITHome), Chinese handset makers OPPO and vivo are indeed working on their self-developed ISP chips.

The report says that OPPO has assigned thousands of people to this project. Its in-house ISP silicon is said to make its way to consumer products as soon as early next year with the launch of the OPPO Find X4 series.

On the other hand, vivo reportedly set up a secret team codenamed “Wyatt Shadow” for its self-developed chips two years ago. This team is said to have around 500-600 members. Their first product will be an ISP chip, which is expected to make its debut on the vivo X70 series slated to release in the second half of 2021.

ISP chips are just the beginning. As per the report, OPPO and vivo are also working on in-house SOCs (System-on-chip) to replace Qualcomm and MediaTek silicons in the future.

Ever since the US banned HUAWEI, Chinese tech giants have been investing more in indigenous technology to face the worst-case scenario. This move not only safeguards the future of these companies but will bring in more competition, which will further lead to better innovation.

PUBG might be going Free to play soon: Rumor

Jul 27, 2021

A new rumor has suggested that PUBG or PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds might be going free to play in the near future. The title is one of the most popular battle royale game in the PC gaming market and is apparently seeking to be accessible to everyone soon.

Leak:
PUBG wants to go free-to-play.

They’re going to track player responses in a F2P week that’s happening next month.

Keep in mind, PUBG originally wanted to go F2P in 2019; but didn’t get the player response they wanted att from 2019’s F2P test.

— PlayerIGN (@PlayerIGN) July 24, 2021

The news arrives from a tweet from PlayerIGN, who stated that the game will become free to play in the future. As per the dataminer, the decision to go free to play, however, will be largely based on the reception of its current playerbase. In other words, the studio behind PUBG will track the player’s response in a free to play week that is reportedly set to arrive sometime next month. So, the game could go free depending on whether there is an influx of new players and that the existing players react positively to the change.

Notably, PlayerIGN also added that PUBG had aimed on becoming free to play back in 2019. Although, the studio did not receive the player response that they had wanted back during the free to play test run in 2019, so this decision was scrapped. Keep in mind that this is still an unconfirmed report so take it with a pinch of salt and stay tuned for more updates. Also, let us know in the comments section down below what you feel about the game possibly going free to play.

Apple iPad Mini 6 to reportedly feature 8.3-inch display with narrow bezels

Jul 27, 2021

Apple is rumored to launch its next-generation iPad Mini this year and ahead of the launch, details about the upcoming tablet keep surfacing online. Now, a new report reveals the screen size of the iPad Mini 6.

The report, coming from Ross Young, claims that the device will come with an 8.3-inch display and will feature narrow bezels. Earlier, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo had said that the device could feature a screen size between 8.5-inch and 9-inch.

There were rumors about the new iPad Mini adopting a Mini-LED display but those have been debunked. The information in the new report is pretty much in line with the previous report which suggested that the new iPad Mini will come with thinner and uniform bezels and will get rid of the home button at the bottom of the screen.

Design-wise, the product is said to have a similar look to the fourth-generation iPad Air. Previously, it was revealed that the upcoming iPad Mini, which carries codename J310, will come powered by the Apple A15 Bionic chipset, which is expected to power the upcoming iPhone 13 lineup as well.

It is also said that the product will now come with a USB Type-C port instead of the company’s proprietary Lightning port. The device will still have support for Touch ID which will be embedded on the side.

Recently, it was reported that Apple could be launching an updated version of the entry-level 10.2-inch iPad in the month of September which will be powered by the Apple A13 Bionic chipset, looking similar to the iPad Air 3 model which was launched in 2019.

Continuing the tradition, Samsung president TM Roh has published a blog post on the website ahead of the Galaxy Unpacked event that talks about the products about to get launched and set expectations.

In that post, Roh has confirmed that the upcoming foldable smartphones from the company will come with S Pen support. This also confirms that the South Korean giant will be launching a new S Pen at the Galaxy Unpacked event next month.

The new upcoming stylus is touted to be the “first-ever S Pen designed specifically for foldable phones.” However, nothing more about the product is known at this time. This is not it, TM Roh has also confirmed that there won’t be a Galaxy Note device getting launched this year, saying that instead of launching a Note-series this time around, the company will “further broaden beloved Note features to more Samsung Galaxy devices.”

He adds that the “third generation of foldable devices will open up amazing new multitasking capabilities and enhanced durability.” Talking about the Galaxy Z Flip 3, he says that the phone will have “an even more refined style, armed with more durable, stronger materials.”

It’s not just the hardware but Samsung is also focusing on software to improve the user experience. Roh says that the company has worked with Google “to enrich our foldable ecosystems with popular apps and services.”

For the upcoming foldable smartphone, Samsung has lined up more partner apps to take advantage of the fold-out format. We can expect support for hands-free video calling with Google Duo, watching videos in “Flex” mode on YouTube, and multitasking in Microsoft Teams, among others.

At the Galaxy Unpacked event on 11th August, Samsung is expected to launch Galaxy Z Fold 3, Galaxy Z Flip 3, Galaxy Watch 4 series, Galaxy Buds 2, and S Pen. The upcoming foldable phones are expected to be around $200 cheaper than their predecessor as the company is looking to make them more affordable.

A mysterious Realme phone with an RMX3381 model number was spotted at China’s TENAA telecom authority yesterday. The listing only revealed a few details like the dimensions, display size, and battery capacity of the RMX3381 phone. Now, the Chinese regulatory body has updated the listing with its images and remaining specifications. Unfortunately, the final marketing name of the device is yet to be revealed.

Realme RMX3381 specifications

The Realme RMX3381 has a 6.5-inch TFT screen that delivers a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. It runs on Android 11 OS and features a side-facing fingerprint scanner for security.

For selfies, it possesses a front camera of 16-megapixel. The camera module on its back has a 48-megapixel main camera, two auxiliary cameras, and an LED flash. The power button available on the right edge of the phone doubles up as a fingerprint sensor.

It is driven by an unknown 2.4GHz octa-core processor and 4 GB / 6 GB / 8 GB of RAM. When it comes to storage, the handset is expected to arrive with 64 GB / 128 GB / 256 GB of built-in storage and a microSD card slot. It carries support for 5G connectivity.

The handset is backed by a 4,880mAh battery that supports rapid charging. While it has been approved by the TENAA authority, it is yet to receive certification from the 3C regulatory site. Lastly, the device measures 162.5 x 74.8 x 8.8mm and weighs 191 grams.

Now that the RMX3381 is TENAA certified, it is likely to go official in August in China. Probably, it may end up as a V-series or a Q-series smartphone.
