Visionox Under Screen camera display is ready for mass production

Jul 1, 2020

Smartphone manufacturers have been trying for years to achieve a full screen body on the front. Methods to achieve this include punch hole camera, popup mechanism, or even a water drop notch. But recently, the anticipation for an Under Display camera has been growing, and now, Visionox has confirmed that its OLED panel with this technology is ready for mass production.

The company has said that its the under screen camera solution is ready and it has achieved one of the best display results. Visionox has used transparent OLED panel on devices, which has resulted in a balanced offering of display quality and photographic performance. This will allow smartphone OEMs to make full front display bodies on their offerings and is also the world’s first under-screen camera solution to reach mass production.

Despite smartphone vendors having showcased the under screen camera technology, a smartphone with this feature has yet to launch. Oppo had previously mentioned that the technology would likely not be seen in 2020 since image quality suffered. Furthermore, it would also likely be expensive, and shipping a high end flagship with a sub par front camera is infeasible.

Interestingly, Huawei’s upcoming Mate 40 series was initially rumored to feature this new camera technology as well. Although, recent reports have said otherwise. Hence, it would be more likely for a future handset to launch with this feature. However, it remains to be seen just how well this iteration of the technology performs in real life.

After a successful fundraising campaign for the H1 folding bike which ended a few months back, Xiaomi‘s ecological chain partner Himo has launched the Himo Z20 e-bike. The bike is now available on Indiegogo for a decent $699 starting price tag.

Unlike the old run-of-the-mill bike, the HIMO Z20 is a powerful bicycle optimally designed for both electric and manual cycling – and everything in between. Equipped with a casual riding Cool Mode and a quick & sporty Dynamic Mode, HIMO Z20’s dual modes can easily be switched between with the press of a button according to your riding preferences.

The Z20’s innovative built-in battery box is closely connected to the body for space-efficiency, while its lightweight aluminium frame perfectly matches its inner wirings to create an elegant visage. The Z20 comes with a dedicated key for the battery so you charge it wherever you want.

It also features a meticulously designed intelligence centre. Its interconnected vector control system analyzes vehicle information and provides users with real-time feedback, enabling efficient use and control of the kinetic energy produced while riding. Further, the design includes an integrated in-seat air pump which can easily be deployed whenever there is a flat tire.

HIMO Z20 is equipped with a Shimano 6-speed Transmission System for fast and reliable gear adjustment. Its advanced High-efficiency DC Brushless Motor is powerful enough to ride completely pedal-free if you so choose, but also dynamic enough to enable a variety of riding options! Each acceleration level is a unique travel experience. The rear-hub motor provides the traction you need no matter the environment. The tires offer good grip and are slick.

The bike gets if power from an efficient 10Ah lithium battery which can last for a distance of 50miles/80km on one charge. Travel freely from the city to the countryside and beyond. The bike has a protective Battery Management System that accurately calculates power and comprehensively monitors important functions such as current, voltage, and temperature. This ensures the bike continues to provide sustained power regardless of environmental conditions.

Microsoft rolls out emergency updates to fix Security flaws on Windows 10

By

Jul 1, 2020

Microsoft has recently rolled out two emergency updates that fix certain security flaws in its Windows 10 and Windows Server operating systems. This update arrives just two weeks earlier than its regular Tuesday Patch cycle.

According to Microsoft, the flaws had not been publicly revealed so its chances of exploitation were low, but regardless, the company hurried to patch the vulnerabilities that affected both platforms rather than waiting for the July 14 update cycle. The security flaws in question have been labeled as CVE-2020-1425 and CVE-2020-1457, which allow exploiters to execute arbitrary code and take control of the affected computer.

Apparently, these flaws existed due to the way Windows Codecs Library handles objects in memory. In other words, a potential attacker could hack into a system by using a crafted image file that would need to launch on the targeted computer. The company also revealed the list of the versions of operating systems that suffered from this issue, which includes:

Windows 10 version 1709
Windows 10 version 1803
Windows 10 version 1809
Windows 10 version 1903
Windows 10 version 1909
Windows 10 version 2004
Windows Server 2019
Windows Server version 1803
Windows Server version 1903
Windows Server version 1909
Windows Server version 2004

The security flaws were first reported to the company by Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative security researcher Abdul-Aziz Hariri. Users can now download the update from the Microsoft Store in the forms of patches that will update the Windows Media Codec. Although, these updates have been sent out automatically as well.

Jul 1, 2020

Honor is gearing for its July 2 launch conference. In the event, the Honor 30 Youth Edition will be officially announced, but just prior to its launch, the company revealed one of its camera features, namely the AI Speed Capture.

Earlier today (1st July 2020), the Chinese brand shared image posters that teased the AI Speed Capture camera feature for the Honor 30 Youth Edition. This allows users to click images of subjects that are moving, like running and jumping and get detailed shots due to its quick capture. Honor shared this feature on its official Weibo account, a Chinese microblogging website.

In the post, the company revealed the new AI Speed Capture feature along with an image poster. The post also elaborated on the user being able to capture motion due to what seems to be faster shutter time but we will have to wait for the official launch to know of its actual performance. The Honor 30 Youth Edition is a 5G mid range handset that will sport MediaTek’s Dimensity 800 chipset and will be launched alongside the Honor X10 Max. So stay tuned, as we will be covering the event.

Apple may only ship 15-20 million iPhone 12 series phones in 2020

By

-

Jul 1, 2020

Apple is expected to launch its first 5G smartphones in the form of iPhone 12 series later this year. The American tech giant was previously forecasted to ship 30-40 million units. But now, as per the latest report by DigiTimes, the estimation has been decremented by half to only 15-20 million units for 2020.

The report says the supply chain partners of Apple are less optimistic about mmWave-enabled iPhone 12 series set for launch this year. The competition between the suppliers is also intense given the lower number of units.

Apple has been long relying on Taiwanese manufacturers to assemble its devices. But currently, Chinese manufacturers are on the rise as the company is diversifying its supply chain.

According to the report, Apple has willingly increased the involvement of Chinese companies to assemble iPads, Apple Watches, and even AirPods. This is said to be “growing threats” for Taiwanese companies who had enjoyed their monopoly for years.

As for Apple, it is doing this to “cut costs, diversify production risks and better tap the Chinese market”.

That said, the proper reason for the lower shipments than the previous estimation is vague at the moment. It could be possibly due to the pandemic as the world economy has tanked hard in recent months.

China: Selective Indian Ban of TikTok and other Chinese apps is against WTO rules

By

-

Jul 1, 2020

Earlier this week, the Indian government had banned 59 Chinese smartphone applications. This ban included popular social media apps like TikTok and more. Now, Ji Rong, spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in India, has said in a statement that China “firmly opposed” this decision and it is a “violation of World Trade Organisation rules.”

Back in Monday, India had banned these 59 applications that included WeChat, TikTok, Helo, and others due to alleged threats they pose to the country’s “sovereignty and security.” Popular apps like ShareIT, UC Browser, CamScanner, Shein, and Club Factory were also on this list, with the ban being imposed under Section 69A of the Information Technology Act.

Ji Rong stated that “We expect India acknowledges the mutually beneficial nature of China-India economic and trade cooperation, and urge the Indian side to change its discriminatory practices, maintain the momentum of China-India economic and trade cooperation, treat all investments and service providers equally, and create an open, fair and just business environment while bearing in mind the fundamental interests of both sides and the overall interests of bilateral relations.”

While China’s stance is against this move, the Indian government has claimed that these applications are engaged in activities that are “prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order.” In other words, they pose a risk to its citizens, in regard to data security and privacy. Notably, the ban arrives shortly after recent military clashes along the Indo-Chinese borders. Friction has been increasing in the region and recent casualties have stirred anti-Chinese sentiments in the country.

POCO M2 Pro will launch on July 7 in India

Jul 1, 2020

POCO India has officially revealed the name of its next smartphone as POCO M2 Pro on Twitter. This handset has been in the leaks for a while now. The brand even announced its launch date, which happens to by July 7.

For all those who were on the edge of their seat. It's time to #FeelTheSurge with the #POCOM2Pro.

Arriving on July 7th @ 12 PM. RT if you want to know more: https://t.co/9qDfHgozXT pic.twitter.com/8omQqEHS0r

— #POCOForIndia (@IndiaPOCO) July 1, 2020

POCO India is promoting the POCO M2 Pro with #FeelTheSurge. Earlier this year, it used #SmoothAF for the POCO X2 launch. That said, both the phones seem to have one thing in common as the upcoming device also seems to be a rebranded handset.

The brand has posted a single video teaser and published a microsite on Flipkart where it will be made available for purchase. The 10-second video showcases the back of the handset which resembles that of Redmi Note 9 Pro European variant.

Also, the model number of the device from certification sites revealed it to be M2003J6CI, which is similar to the Redmi Note 9 series. All of this clearly indicates the POCO M2 Pro to be some sort of rebrand.

On the other hand, the brand claims the handset to be developed specifically for India. Anyway, we will know more about in the coming days as the Flipkart page clearly mentions the arrival of a new teaser tomorrow.

OnePlus 8 is the first smartphone to run Fortnite at 90fps

By

Jul 1, 2020

While smartphones with higher refresh rates have existed for a while now, its adoption and optimization for gaming have still been a bit uneven. But now, OnePlus 8 has fully utilized its faster display as the smartphone is the first to run Fortnite at 90fps.

Fortnite is one of the world’s most popular video games at the moment. It is a different and rather cartoonish take on the extremely successful battle royale genre and competes with the likes of PUBG. With games being intensive multiplayer battles, higher refresh rates can give users a slight edge in their fights. For those unaware, a higher refresh rate also translates to lowered input lag, meaning your physical actions are reflected faster on the screen. The difference is in mere milliseconds, but in a first person shooter title, that’s all that matters.

Unfortunately, despite the OnePlus 8 packing Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 865 SoC alongside the Adreno 650 GPU, the game can only run at 90fps when the graphics settings are set to “low.” While you do lose visual fidelity, the improved performance really does make up for that loss in detail. So, if you’re into Fortnite and mobile gaming, the smartphone, and the game title really pair well together.

A new leak has revealed that Apple is reportedly testing an interesting new feature for its iPhone. Apparently, the company is running macOS on an iPhone and plans on bringing a docking feature for a full desktop experience, when connecting the handset to a monitor.

Apple working on Linda/Dex type of prototypes
the software work on it is insane
i cant even tell you how excited they are about the whole thing 🤯

— Mauri QHD (@MauriQHD) June 26, 2020

The news arrives after Apple recently showcased the A12Z Bionic chip running inside a Mac mini that ran macOS through Rosetta 2. According to MauriQHD, the Cupertino based giant has built a prototype macOS on an iPhone. Reportedly, Apple is even testing a DeX like prototype. For those unaware, DeX is a Samsung made technology that enables its smartphone to be docked to a monitor and bring a full desktop experience.

This concept has also been previously approached by Razer with its Project Linda, were docking a smartphone on the trackpad of a thin notebook, enabled it to be used as a portable ultrabook. MauriQHD had also previously tweeted out that Apple is also working on prototypes of iPads with iPadOS and macOS. The company has apparently been working on this one for years.

Apple working on prototypes of an iPad with iPadOS and MacOS, i´ve been saying this all along, but i´ve got 100% confirmation now
years in the works

Unfortunately, these are still unconfirmed reports so take it with a pinch of salt for now. However, the fact that Apple recently announced a shift to its own silicon chips, the seamless switch between interfaces does seem possible. The Mac Mini with A12Z Bionic running full desktop applications with ease also hints that Apple might actually launch the smartphone docking feature as well.

Redmi Dimensity 1000+ phone could feature 120Hz OLED display with pop-up camera

Jul 1, 2020

Redmi is expected to launch its first MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ smartphone in July according to popular Chinese leakster Digital Chat Station. Today, he reveals the handset will come with 120Hz OLED display as well as a pop-up camera. A few days back, he said it to feature an LCD panel.

Redmi has so far only launched a couple of 5G smartphones powered by MediaTek chip. They are Redmi 10X and Redmi 10X Pro with Dimensity 820 SoC. But that number is expected to increment with this mystery Dimensity 1000+ handset, which could launch as Redmi K40.

This phone was previously said to feature a 120Hz LCD panel. But now, the same tipster claims it to come with OLED display along with a pop-up camera. Thus, we can expect it to offer a full-screen experience like the Redmi K30 Pro/POCO F2 Pro and Redmi K20/K20 Pro from last year.

Further, he also tipped it to house an in-display fingerprint sensor like most phones with OLED panels these days. As per the same leakster, the handset will also feature a 4,500 mAh battery.

This device is thought to be the one spotted on 3C certification with model number M2006J10C. If that is the case, then we can expect it to ship with Xiaomi MDY-11-EX 33W fast charger just like the Redmi K30 Pro.

Jul 1, 2020

Xiaomi, which is already a big name in the Smart TV market in several regions, has confirmed that the company will be launching a new ultra-high-end TV in its home country China on 2nd July.

The upcoming TV, which will be a part of the Xiaomi TV Master Series, will come with several premium features. It will be featuring an OLED display panel with a 120Hz refresh rate for smoother viewing experience.

The TV is also said to be targeting gamers with a Game mode compatible with the upcoming next-generation gaming consoles such as Sony PS5 and Microsoft Xbox Series X. It will also come with features like Dolby Atmos audio and more.

Under the hood, the Xiaomi TV Master Series is confirmed to come powered by a MediaTek chipset but the exact processor is not yet known. It is also revealed to have a 3D panoramic sound field allowing users to hear the space and trajectory of the sound and get the depth without any filters.

Recently, Mr. Pan, a Xiaomi Manager, revealed certain other specifications of the upcoming TV, such as HDMI 2.1 support, NFC remote control, Dolby Vision + Dolby Atmos, and VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) + ALLM (Automatic Low Latency).

This will be the first time for the Xiaomi to offer an OLED Smart TV in the market. However, all those premium features will come at an astonishing price. Pan Jiutang, a partner of the Xiaomi Industry Investment Department, has shed some light on the TV’s pricing.

He says that the cost of a 65-inch OLED screen is almost five times when compared with the cost of the LCD panel. So, reports indicate that the upcoming Xiaomi TV Master Series will be higher than 15,999 yuan (~$2,264) and could cost around 19,999 yuan (~$2,829).

Jul 1, 2020

ZTE launched a smartphone named Blade A3 Prime a few weeks ago and it seems that the Chinese company is now gearing up to launch yet another budget smartphone, dubbed as ZTE Balde A3v — a variant of the Blade A3.

The smartphone has appeared on the Google Play Console carrying model number Z5157V. The listing reveals that the smartphone features an HD screen with a resolution of 1440 x 720 pixels, offering around 320PPI pixel density.

Under the hood, the device will come powered by a MediaTek Helio A22 chipset clocked at 2.0GHz. It packs 2GB RAM but the internal storage information is not yet known. The smartphone is powered by the Android 10 operating system out-of-the-box.

While the screen size is not yet known, the leaks specs hints that the display could be of 5-inch — same as the ZTE Blade A3 (2019) but smaller than the Blade A3 Prime which has a 5.45-inch screen.

The ZTE Blade A3v was recently certified by both the FCC and the Bluetooth SIG. So, the smartphone should not be far away from getting launched. Since the Blade A3 Prime costs $99, we expect this one to be priced lower than that.

Just for the sake of comparison, the ZTE Blade A3 Prime comes with a 5.45-inch HD+ (1440 x 720 pixels) IPS LCD panel with 295 PPI and 18:9 aspect ratio. It is powered by MediaTek Helio A22 SoC paired with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage.

In the latest report, it is being said that the Huawei Mate 40 Pro will come with support for 3D face recognition technology that will be used to authenticate digital payments. The sensors used for this tech will be placed under the punch-hole cutout on the display.
