Realme sold over 2 million units of Realme 2 smartphone in India in four months

Jan 16, 2019

Realme has quickly become a household name in the Indian market thanks to its fast-selling value-for-money smartphones. This is a very impressive feat for a company that started operations just 10 months ago and is now a leading brand in the budget smartphone segment in India.

While the company has already revealed that it has sold more than 4 million smartphones, the company has now announced another feat. Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth has revealed that the company has sold over 2 million units of Realme 2 smartphone in the Indian market in just four months.

The Realme 2 was launched in India in September 2018 for a starting price of Rs. 8,990 ($127). Later, the company announced a price hike, taking the starting price of the smartphone to Rs. 9,499 ($134) while the top-end model costs Rs. 10,990 ($155).

The phone features a 6.2-inch display but the company has downgraded the screen resolution to 720p HD+ compared to Full HD resolution on Realme 1. The FullView 2.5D curved glass display comes with 18:9 aspect ratio and offers a screen resolution of 1520 x 720 pixels which is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass.

Under the hood, the device is powered by Qualcomm‘s Snapdragon 450 octa-core processor clocked at 1.8GHz, which is also a step backward compared to the MediaTek Helio P60 which powers the Realme 1. The phone has two variants — 3GB RAM with 32GB internal storage and 4GB RAM with 64GB internal storage. There’s also a microSD card slot for expanding the phone’s storage capacity.

The company has upgraded the camera configuration on the Realme 2 as it now comes with dual camera sensors on the back, featuring a 13-megapixel primary sensor paired with a 2-megapixel secondary sensor. On the front side, there’s an 8-megapixel shooter for taking selfies and video calling.

Unlike the Realme 1, the Realme 2 comes with a fingerprint sensor on the back panel and also has support for software-based Face Unlock feature. The phone runs on Android 8.1 Oreo operating system out-of-the-box with the company’s own ColorOS 5.1 custom interface.

Connectivity options on the device include Dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS + GLONASS, and USB OTG. The phone is fuelled by a bigger 4,230mAh battery. It comes in three color options — Diamond Black, Diamond Red, and Diamond Blue.

Google to remove apps from Play Store that require Call Log and SMS permission

By

-

Jan 16, 2019

Google is tightening its security measures in a bid to limit access of user’s data to the app developers. In the latest development, the company has announced that it will be removing applications from the Google Play Store that do not adhere policy for call log and SMS permission.

The announcement comes as part of Project Strobe, which is the search engine giant’s internal initiative which stemmed from the issues which gave rise to the untimely (or timely) demise of its social networking platform Google+.

The company is making it simple — only default clients should be able to access the sensitive user data on the device. Not all the apps that need call log or SMS permission will be removed but many unscrupulous developers who have created apps that require access to user data and then profit from the insight will booted off the platform.

Explaining this move, the company announced:

Our new policy is designed to ensure that apps asking for these permissions need full and ongoing access to the sensitive data in order to accomplish the app’s primary use case and that users will understand why this data would be required for the app to function. Keeping our overall Android ecosystem healthy is very important, and protection of user data is vital to the long term health of all developers.

Google does allow access to such data for genuine use cases. For this, the developers will need to submit a ‘permissions declaration form’ for access to the call log and SMS data. Many developers were emailed several months ago to sort this out and were warned that they had 90 days to get their form in, remove the permissions, or face the consequences.

Now that the 90-days span has expired, Google has announced that it will soon begin removing apps which require call logs and SMS permissions from the Play Store. However, only those apps will be booted off for which the developers are yet to submit a permission declaration form.

Google has also pointed that it assesses factors such as user benefit of the permissions, availability of more narrow alternatives, risks presented by the app and the sheer importance of the permissions for helping an app accomplish its core objective.

Jan 16, 2019

Huawei Mate 20 Pro and Huawei P20 Pro are two true flagship smartphones from the Chinese company, which has already dethroned Apple from the second position in the worldwide smartphone shipments. Both the phones come with a premium design and best-in-class camera experience.

While the phone comes with support for HDR and Full HD content, it was not able to stream HD videos from online streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube among others as both the phones lacked support for Widevine L1 certification.

However, the Chinese company has now released an update for the Mate 20 Pro and P20 Pro that brings support for Widevine L1 certifications, enabling the smartphones to stream HD videos as well as play HDR content.

The latest software update for the Huawei P20 Pro is EMUI 9,0 which is based on Android 9 Pie operating system. It enables HD as well as HDR streaming, which then enables cinematic like visuals on a hand-held device. Since both the smartphones — Mate 20 Pro and P20 Pro — come with an OLED display with HDR10 compatibility, this will further increase the multimedia consumption experience on the phone.

The new update for the smartphones also brings gesture-based navigation which is very useful in a full-screen smartphone; second-generation GPU Turbo technology that boosts the phone’s performance; and redesigned settings menu among other things.

The Huawei Mate 20 Pro comes with a 6.39-inch QHD+ display while the Huawei P20 Pro boasts a 6.1-inch Full HD+ display. Under the hood, the Mate 20 Pro is powered by Kirin 980 while the P20 Pro is powered by its predecessor Kirin 970 and both phones support up to 8GB of RAM.

Both the smartphones are focused on offering an enhanced and unique camera experience and comes equipped with a triple-camera setup on the back, consisting of a 40MP + 20MP + 8MP sensors. On the front side, both devices feature a 24MP snapper.

While the Huawei Mate 20 Pro was running Android Pie-based EMUI 9 out-of-the-box, the P20 Pro comes pre-installed with Android Oreo-based EMUI 9. With this new update, it has now been updated to EMUI 9 based on Android 9 Pie.

Xiaomi announces a new in-display fingerprint sensor technology that solves two major issues

By

-

Jan 16, 2019

Since last year, the smartphone manufacturers have been focused on offering a user-friendly way to unlock the smartphones and most manufacturers decided that the in-display fingerprint sensor is the way to go.

While in-display fingerprint sensor technology has been appreciated by the users, there are a few issues that users are facing. With development moving forward, China-based Xiaomi has announced a new fingerprint sensor technology that fixes two major issues related to the in-display fingerprint sensor, enhancing the user experience.

Xiaomi has announced that its new technology will enable users to unlock their devices in a single touch which is difficult with the current-generation technology. As per the company, with the current in-display fingerprint tech, many times users need to scan their fingerprint multiple times to unlock the device, which the company has now fixed.

Further, the company says that it has also increased the screen area which can read the user’s fingerprint to unlock the device. Currently, the fingerprint sensor works on a pre-defined area/spot of the screen but with Xiaomi’s solution, that is no longer the case.

However, the company has not said which smartphone will come equipped with this new in-display fingerprint sensor but has suggested that the future smartphone will have this technology. While the company has not named the phone, it’s likely that the upcoming flagship Xiaomi Mi 9 could feature this new in-display fingerprint sensor.

According to the rumors, the Xiaomi Mi 9 will come with a waterdrop notch display and is expected to house a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen with 19.5:9 aspect ratio and Dull HD+ resolution. The smartphone is said to come with a 48-megapixel primary camera sensor.

Under the hood, the phone will be powered by Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 855 octa-core 7nm chipset but it’s confirmed that the phone won’t be featuring X50 LTE modem that offers 5G connectivity. Instead, the SD855 will come equipped with an X24 LTE modem.

While the phone’s 3,500mAh battery is said to support 32W fast charging technology, the Mi 9 won’t carry support for wireless charging. A recent report had claimed that it could be the first smartphone from the company to arrive with triple rear cameras.

The Xiaomi Mi 9 is speculated to carry a price tag of 2,999 Yuan (approximately $436) for the base model that includes 6GB of RAM and 128GB of inbuilt storage. Although the company has not yet announced the launch date, reports indicate that the Mi 9 will be launched in March but there’s a possibility that the Chinese company could showcase the phone at MWC 2019.

Jan 16, 2019

Meizu 16 series which includes Snapdragon 845 powered Meizu 16th and Meizu 16th Plus smartphones were introduced in China in August 2018. Meizu CEO Jack Wong who has been vocal about forthcoming smartphones has confirmed that apart from launching Snapdragon 855 chipset driven Meizu 16s and Meizu 16s Plus smartphones, the company will be also debuting the Meizu 16T gaming focused smartphone.

Last night, Wong confirmed on Weibo that apart from launching Meizu 16s and Meizu 16s Plus, there will be a new smartphone called Meizu 16G where “G” refers to “gaming.” Some netizens responded by saying that the “16G” can easily confuse people to believe that it is a Meizu phone with 16 GB storage. Then, Wong deduced “16T” as the new for the gaming-centric smartphone. He added that the “T” in Meizu 16T refers to “Turbo.”

While the Meizu 16s and 16s Plus phones will be powered by Snapdragon 855, Wong confirmed that the Meizu 16T will be another phone powered by the same processor, but it will be carrying a relatively low price tag.

The Meizu 16s and 16s Plus will respectively feature 6.2-inch and 6.5-inch displays. The Meizu 16T will feature a notch-less screen, but its exact size is yet to be finalized. Meizu phones hope that it will have a 6.2-inch display. The handset will feature narrow bezels around the screen and it will be powered by 4,000 to 4,500mAh capacity battery. The handset will be priced between 2,000 Yuan (~$295) and 2,500 Yuan (~$369).

What about the appearance of the Meizu 16s series? Meizu phones have been always praised for launching phones with beautiful design. Recently, a fan-made render of the Meizu 16s had surfaced on Meizu community forum. Meizu CEO has claimed the appearance of the Meizu 16s won’t be very different from the fan-made render. However, there is no confirmation on whether the gaming-centric Meizu 16T will be also sporting the same design.

Sony is one smartphone OEM that has been using the Mobile World Congress (MWC) tech expo platform to announce new smartphones. The Japanese tech giant has now sent out invites for its Feb. 25 event at the MWC 2019 to Russian and Italian media channels. Even though the image press in the invite does not reveal the names of the devices it will be announcing on Feb. 25, speculations are rife that it will be unleashing the Xperia XZ4 handset on the said date. Newer information has claimed that the Xperia XZ4 may go official as Xperia N1.

Sony-MWC-2019_Russia-640x399 — Sony MWC 2019 Riussia invite

At MWC 2018, Sony had unveiled the Xperia XZ2 and Xperia XZ2 Compact smartphones. At the IFA 2018 event in September, it unveiled the Sony Xperia XZ3. The company did not announce the Xperia XZ3 Compact phone alongside it. Few weeks ago, popular tipster @OnLeaks had shared renders of the Xperia XZ4 Compact smartphone. Hence, it was speculated that the Xperia XZ4 and Xperia XZ4 Compact would be announced at the MWC 2019 tech trade show.

Information from the previous week had revealed that the Japanese tech giant will be skipping the Xperia XZ4 Compact. Instead of it, the company may announce the Xperia XA3, Xperia XA3 Ultra and Xperia L3 smartphones along with the Snapdragon 855 powered Xperia XZ4. The probable reason why the company is skipping the XZ4 Compact is that the Sony Mobile Vice President of Marketing for North America, Don Mesa had recently said that the consumers need a lot more surface area for their content now.
