These are programmable and users can customize their favorite app icons on the keys. Examples of these include popular desktop apps like Steam, Discord and other more.

Another notable feature with Everest is the Media Dock which also features a display dial. Its the other modular component that can be positioned anywhere on the top of the keyboard.

In other words, a great emphasis has been placed on its customizability. For those interested to support this product, you can pledge on the online platform, which also offers numerous tiers to choose from.

However, this number is expected to grow by about 600,000 units per month by the end of May while by the end of 2020, the production capacity is expected to rise further, up to million units a month.

This sizeable growth would be around a quadruple that of current standards. For those unaware, Samsung is one of the leaders for flexible OLED displays. The company was one of the first to ever release the first foldable smartphone and has also recently unveiled the Galaxy Z Flip, showcasing its increasing focus on such smartphones.

Since 2019, the demand for foldable screens has grown, thus, Samsung is aiming to supply such folding displays not just for its own offerings but for other OEMs as well. Furthermore, the company is also planning to build additional facilities to boost the production of the flexible display panels. These facilities are planned for Vietnam and will supplement the other production lines back in its home country, South Korea.

According to an announcement from Philoptics, responsible for supplying cutting equipment for Samsung displays, the company has plans to provide $13.8 million and $5.84 million worth of equipment by the end of both May and July. This is indicative of the increasing scales of operations for the foldable displays and is in line with Samsung’s schedule as well.

Samsung is one of the largest manufacturers for OLED displays. The company is using this position of its to profit from a growing demand for such displays. It has been reported on multiple occasions that the smartphone market is under a stagnation period, so the increasing demand will only serve to benefit Samsung in this regard. Notably, Samsung had also recently achieved a breakthrough in displays with its UTG (Ultra Thin Glass) technology which is flexible while still offering better protection in comparison to plastic OLEDs.

Mar 4, 2020

DxOMark, the popular smartphone tester, has just published its scores regarding the Nokia 7.2‘s audio capabilities. The mid-range smartphone received 41 points which is relatively very low and has seen its place at the bottom.

DxOMark initially focused on reviewing digital/professional grade cameras but has since diversified to include smartphone photography as well, and through its extension even audio testing. The tests for the Nokia 7.2 were done in two different categories and included aspects such as the smartphone’s single speaker, 3.5mm headphone jack, Qualcomm aptX audio and two microphones with spacial surround capture.

According to DxOMark, the tests were done from trained officials that perform various tests which are undertaken over 20 hours. The Nokia 7.2 received a score of 33 from playback and 66 points for recording. For the former, DxOMark tests revealed a terrible playback in the spacial category. While its artifacts received a positive score, the timbre volume range, dynamics are relatively low, placing it at the very bottom of the list.

For the recording, the Nokia 7.2 fared a lot better here with positive scoring across most areas. Its volume range, timbre, and artifacts were again one of the top performers. However, its background recording saw one of the lowest scores ever. Furthermore, its dynamics and spatial during recording was only average in comparison.

The lack of its stereo speakers saw it take a hit on playback while its average recording capabilities aren’t enough to raise the score on itself, something expected of smartphones from this category. Notably, the Nokia 7.2 scored lower than even some of its lowest rated devices like Sony Xperia 1, Black Shark 2 Pro and LG G8 ThinQ.

AliExpress warns customers of possible delay in deliveries due to Coronavirus

Mar 4, 2020

Chinese giant Alibaba‘s global e-commerce platform AliExpress has warned its customers that there could be delay in delivering orders because of the coronavirus outbreak, adding that some shipping and logistics are experiencing longer waiting times for processing orders.

Customers have started complaining that orders were not only taking a long time to arrive but were being automatically renewed, instead of being canceled and refunded. AliExpress said that it was constantly monitoring the situation.

In a statement to NYTimes, the company said that “some deliveries may be affected but we are working hard to support our sellers in this difficult time while minimizing any inconvenience to our customers.”

AliExpress is one of the most downloaded shopping apps globally. This is partly helped by the trends of consumers worldwide buying products directly from manufacturers. However, unlike Alibaba’s Tmall or Taobao, AliExpress primarily caters to international buyers.

Alibaba Group had warned in February of a drop in revenue at its key e-commerce businesses as the coronavirus sweeping China has hit the company’s supply chains as well as product deliveries.

Launched in 2010, AliExpress is particularly popular in Russia, the United States, Brazil, Spain and France. The company had more than 79 million annual active consumers in the year ending Aug. 31, 2019.

Sellers of Amazon in the United States are also bracing for product shortages due to idled factories in China and canceled cargo flights from the country. As per the report, more than a million Amazon sellers source their products from Chinese merchants.

Mar 4, 2020

According to the latest report from TF International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple will be launching six new products in 2020 and 2021 which will be using mini-LED displays, which includes iPads and Macs.

The company is reportedly set to launch the iPad Mini with mini-LED displays in the market later this year. The mini-LED technology shrinks the size of the individual LED backlights and thus, offers better contrast, better brightness, and better black levels.

Apple will be using the same technology for its 12.9-inch iPad Pro, a 10.2-inch iPad, and a 7.9-inch iPad Mini. While Kuo says that the iPad Mini will be launched sometime later this year, the specific launch timeline of other products is not yet revealed.

In his note, Ming-Chi Kuo says that “the product research and development for mini LED remain unaffected by the COVID-19. The visibility for commercialisation has even exceeded the expectations in our previous report.”

The same report also reveals for the first time that the company is planning to launch a 14.1-inch MacBook Pro. It says that the 14.1-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌ will be sold alongside a refreshed 16-inch ‌MacBook Pro‌.

Kuo also mentions a 27-inch ‌iMac Pro‌ in his note, which is interesting given that Apple has not refreshed its ‌iMac Pro‌ since it was launched in 2017. There’s a possibility that the mini-LED version of the 12.9-inch ‌iPad Pro‌ could launch in the fall of 2020.

Apple is also rumored to unveil two new iPad Pro models — one with 11-inch and another with 12.9-inch display — at the end of this month. However, these models won’t feature mini-LED displays but will have upgraded camera specifications.

Mini-LED seems like a transitional technology for the upcoming micro-LED on which the Cupertino-based giant has been working for a few years now. Apple reportedly started working on it back in 2018 at a manufacturing facility in California. However, it is said that we won’t see micro-LED displays on a smartphone until 2023 at the earliest. Before micro-LED, mini-LED displays will be used on some of Apple’s devices.
