Feb 16, 2021

OPPO is known for developing weird smartphone designs. In fact, the company has already announced a smartphone with a rollable display OPPO X 2021 last year. It also patents interesting designs from time to time. Accordingly, the focus has lately been on designing the front camera. One such has been spotted by LetsGoDigital.

OPPO Smartphone Patent Movable Selfie Camera — CC: LetsGoDigital

According to the report, OPPO‘s new patent has been published on January 28, 2021. It was applied last year by Guangdong Oppo Mobile Telecommunications at WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organization). The design schematics shows a movable front camera for capturing selfies from various angles.

As you can see below, the arrangement on the top of the display upfront operates with the help of a drive motor. Apparently, it uses a guide block placed inside a rail bracket to move the sensor bi-directionally. That is, once the camera app is opened, users can adjust the position of the front camera and move it left/right.

Some of the use-case scenarios are taking side views of users while they are looking straight, Adjust the various compositions of images and capture it in multiple angles, comfortable panorama selfies, and more.

Speaking of which, OPPO’s recent patent with a pop-up camera and reflective mirror showed that a 360-degree panorama could be possible. Another design patent showed a detachable camera layout for selfies/video calls.

OPPO brought a shark-fin-shaped pop-up module with the Reno Series of smartphones. The company has also been experimenting with a few things with its Find-X series. Hence, we cannot guess which Series will get this design if at all it comes to light.

Either way, the latest patent also shows a flushed display with minimal bezels on all sides. Further, the report says that it also has an in-display fingerprint scanner which is a no-brainer these days.

Rumor: iQOO may launch two or more devices in India starting March

By

Feb 16, 2021

Early last year, iQOO was one of the first companies to launch a 5G smartphone in India. The Chinese brand introduced iQOO 3 in the country in both 4G and 5G variants. Almost a year has passed but the firm is yet to release another handset. Thankfully, the situation may improve soon, as per a new rumor.

According to Tushar Mehta of XDA Developers, iQOO, the independent brand of vivo may release two or more devices in India in the coming months starting March. He also suggests that one of them could be the brand’s latest flagship smartphone – iQOO 7.

Anyway, we would request you to consider this piece of information with a pinch of salt. Because Mehta himself says that this is merely a rumor and not a confirmed leak. However, it is worth noting that his previous tips have been accurate.

Additionally, he also says that vivo will not be debuting the vivo X50 Pro+. Instead, the handset maker will be only bringing the vivo X60 series, including the premium vivo X60 Pro+.

That said, vivo was India’s third-largest smartphone brand in Q4 2020. The company was even the largest offline brand during the same period. However, we cannot say anything good about iQOO.

Ever since its launch, iQOO 3 has been discounted multiple times. In fact, its price has been permanently dopped by a high margin. Above all, the handset was part of the Android 11 Beta program but it is yet to receive the stable update.

Having said that, we hope iQOO to make an impressive comeback since it has potential.

Feb 16, 2021

OnePlus is expected to debut into the world of Smartwatches with two products this year. Ahead of the launch, a lot of leaks about them have been appearing online. Now, another leak shows the possible design of the OnePlus Watch courtesy of Techniknews.

OnePlus has patented a Smartwatch design on German Patent and Trademark Office(GPTO). Although OnePlus hasn’t confirmed the design yet, the description of patent shows that OnePlus Technologies themselves have filed it. This suggests that the design with a round dial could be final as leaked before.

Talking about the design itself, one of the sketches shows a round dial with flouted bracelet(straps). On the right side, there are two buttons probably for UI navigation. On the back, there are sensors that could be for Heart rate, Blood Oxygen, Blood Pressure etc.

Beneath them, two contact points likely for magnetic charging are also visible. The report says that this could be the ‘Sport Version’ of the ‘OnePlus Watch’.

1 of 7

The second design, however, is already known to us via various leaks. This one has a frame that extends slightly outer and also has a differenet strap design. That is, we can spot a new Clip on one end of the strap whose functionality is a bit unclear at this point.

Apart from this, other areas like button placements, sensors look similar as mentioned above.

1 of 6

The OnePlus watch(model: W501GB) is rumored to launch sometime in March and both have received certifications already. The company will seemingly launch a watch with ‘OnePlus Watch RX’ moniker having a round-shaped dial(like OPPO Watch RX) and also a Watch with a square-shaped dial (model: W301GB).

There’s also a Cyberpunk Limited Edition in the making. For software, it is likely to host an in-house UI and not the Google’s Wear OS courtesy of leaks.

Microsoft sees an upgrade wave from Windows 7 users: Report

Feb 16, 2021

While Microsoft ended the support for Windows 7 back in January 2020, the older version of Windows is still going strong with a notable user base across the globe. However, despite this, the company has recently started seeing an upgrade wave as well.

According to a WCCFTech report, the American tech giant has supported the older version of Windows for over 10 years before finally ending support. While the company never officially shared any stats regarding the user base, data from NetMarketShare has revealed that 1 in every 4 computers was still being powered by Windows 7. Microsoft has offered a free upgrade offer to Windows 7 users. Now, a year after the company ended support, it has observed a new upgrade wave.

In other words, there has been a number of users shifting away from the now unsupported Windows version. Last month, the company stated that “In Windows, the stronger PC market resulted in overall OEM revenue growth of 1 percent, despite a strong prior year comparable in OEM Pro from the end of support for Windows 7. OEM non-Pro revenue grew 24 percent, and OEM Pro revenue declined 9 percent. Inventory levels ended the quarter in the normal range.”

At the moment, at least 20 percent of all devices are still running on Windows 7, as per NetmarketShare. Furthermore, the most number of older devices running this version of Windows belong to government and institutions, which have always been slow to switch to newer products and services despite the company offering a free upgrade plan.

Last month, it was rumored that Samsung is working on two new Galaxy Book Pro laptops. Recently, the company has even received Bluetooth certification for the notebooks, which will apparently be called the Galaxy Book Pro and the Galaxy Book Pro 360. Now, certain specifications of these laptops have been revealed.

According to a SamMobile report, the South Korean tech giant will be launching the new laptops in two size variants, namely a 13.3 inch and a 15.6 inch model. These laptops will feature OLED panels, which is among its key selling points. Furthermore, both the Galaxy Book Pro and the Galaxy Book Pro 360 will also arrive with support for the S Pen as well.

In other words, these are not Chromebooks, and feature Windows OS. Additionally, the Galaxy Book Pro will be available in both Wi-Fi and LTE models, while the Galaxy Book Pro 360 will launch in a Wi-Fi and 5G enabled variant. At the moment, the difference between the base Pro and Pro 360 variant is unknown, but the ‘360’ might be indicative of its screen’s hinge mechanism, which might allow for a wider range of movement for the display.

Recently, Samsung had launched new laptops like the Galaxy Book Flex 2 5G, the Notebook Plus 2, and the Galaxy Chromebook 2 as well. While the brand hasn’t announced any imminent launch of new laptops, the certification implies that the devices are not too far off.

Feb 16, 2021

Earlier this week, Apple started rolling out the watchOS 7.3.1 for its Apple Watch Series 5 and Watch SE models. This new update would bring a fix that would prevent a bug which caused these wearable devices to get stuck in the Power Reserve mode.

As per a new support document shared by the Cupertino based giant (Via 9To5Mac), the company gave out additional details regarding this bug. For those unaware, the Power Reserve mode allows users to see the time on the Apple Watch while preserving battery life. However, it shuts off the communication between users’ wearable and their iPhone. In otehr words, various features and functionalities are unavailable in this mode.

Despite the fix being rolled out, the company also announced in the document that a “very small number” of the owners of these devices have “experienced an issue with their watch not charging after it enters Power Reserve.” The OEM stated that the watchOS 7.3.1 that was recently rolled out will help prevent “this issue from happening to other Apple Watch Series 5 or Apple Watch SE devices.”

Unfortunately, this implies that those this would only prevent anyone from receiving this bug, and not help those that are already suffering from it. But, the company is ready with a solution. Users suffering from this issue can simply contact its official support team, for a mail in repair, which will be free of charge. Although, the device will be examined before the service to verify whether or not its eligible for the free repairs, as stated by the iPhone maker.
