  • Apple AirPods 2, AirPower Leaked, Launching Soon

    Apple AirPods 2, AirPower Leaked, Launching Soon

    When Apple launched the iPhone 8, 8 Plus and the iPhone X with wireless charging, they introduced another device with it, the Apple AirPower. The wireless charging mat by Apple was seen as an integral part of the Apple ecosystem. Now that most Apple products charge wirelessly, a product like AirPower could prove very useful. But it had been more than a year and we didn’t hear about the AirPower since. That is until now. It is reported that the AirPower has been leaked and will launch this spring.

    The report seems official as it also claims that the advertisement shoot for Apple AirPower has already begun. This gives weight to the rumors that the AirPower was supposed to be launched in the first half of 2019. Along with that, it is also claimed that AirPods 2 are also making their debut this year. They will have deeper bass and look similar to the last model. It was reported that the AirPods 2 will arrive with great new upgrades over its predecessor. They will support hands-free ‘Hey Siri’ command and will have some more sensors to track health features.

    AirPods 2: New Features

    The Apple AirPods 2 are reported to sport an identical size as the last one. They would also look very similar to the original AirPods. They will have an improved internal design to provide more bass, something which was lacking in the first generation. Airpods 2 will also have wireless charging and have new sensors which will track some key health features. This may include heart monitoring and step count. The battery life will be identical to the first one. The texture will be similar to Google Pixel 3 to improve grip. This grip may also be used in the next generation of iPhones.

    The AirPods 2 and the AirPower are not expected to debut together, which is unfortunate. Apple will reportedly also release a wireless charging case for the first-gen AirPods. The AirPods 2 are expected to arrive later this year. As far as pricing is concerned, the AirPower is expected to cost around $150 (Rs. 10,674) and the AirPods 2 are expected to retail at $200 (Rs. 14,233).

  • Google Maps Will Support Augmented Reality Navigation Soon

    Google Maps Will Support Augmented Reality Navigation Soon

    Google has already given us a view into the future, where augmented reality can be integrated into phone cameras. This happened at the Google I/O 2018, where Google showed off a demo with an advanced navigation system. The new nav system could guide users by showing pop-ups regarding nearby shops and businesses.

    Google Maps: The AR Version

    As per reports, the AR version of the Maps is still in the making. Google previously previewed another version for developers in May 2018. The interesting part of that was that Google showed maps on the lower part of the screen. The rest of the screen helped the user navigate the real-world surroundings. Google also used a blinking arrow system, which was almost alike to the arrow in Google’s previous presentation. 

    Map Warnings & Online Guides

    GoogleWall Street Journal’s David Pierce noticed some more intriguing details about this demo feature. After orienting itself to the surroundings, the Google AR version of Maps kept prompting David to put his phone down, so that he doesn’t hit an obstruction. Similarly, WSJ said that the app should be used by more users to test out its features. But the guide for the same wasn’t available anywhere on the app.

    As far as digital guides go, Google also showed off an idea of a digital guide on the AR Maps app. One version of the app included an “animated guide”, which was called “Pizza Man”. Similarly, it can be possible that Google might have more characters/animals as app guides in the upcoming future. 

    Expectations For The Release

    One thing is for sure. The AR feature for Google Maps may take quite some time to release, depending on the number of integrations involved. Hopefully, it will available for testing by users sooner.

  • Apple Working On A Secret 5G Chip, Claims Patent

    Apple Working On A Secret 5G Chip, Claims Patent

    The MWC 2019 will kick off soon in Barcelona in a few days. It is expected that a lot of new and unique technologies will make an appearance. The technology that most people are excited about, is the introduction of 5G. It is expected to enable faster mobile data and improved connections over mobile. Most smartphone manufacturers also have promised a device that will support 5G. One company that hasn’t is Apple. It is expected that Apple is not attending the MWC 2019 nor will it launch a 5G device in 2019. But rumors have started to rise up again as a 5G technology patent by Apple has been leaked.

    Apple has been silent about its stance on 5G and iPhones that will eventually support it. Apple has been known to patiently wait until a technology achieves near perfection to implement it. But this patent leak proves that Apple is working on some 5G technology secretly and has named it ‘Apple Bald Eagle 5G’. The patent was filed earlier this month at the Benelux Office for Intellectual Property or BOIP.

    iPhones With 5G in 2019?

    Apple was earlier reported to skip the 5G hype bandwagon and wait until 2020 to implement it. It was attested to the fact that it would use Intel’s 5G modem in the 5G compatible iPhone. However, as Intel will not be able to supply the large number of Chips required by Apple, The implementation was expected to be pushed to 2020.  This patent leak suggests that Apple has been trying to make one on their own. This would also mean that Apple may be able to launch a 5G compatible iPhone in September 2019. 

    The description offered with the patent said ‘Mobile telecommunication network services’. Apple has used the logo of the American Flag and its national symbol, the Bald Eagle combined with Apple Logo. This may be due to the fact that Apple is an American company and may name its modem after the national symbol.

    Apple doesn’t implement a piece of technology until it has been perfected for use to the general audience. So even if Apple decides to wait out till 2020 for 5G, it may be for the best.

  • The Google Pixel 4 To Have Improved Dual SIM Support

    The Google Pixel 4 To Have Improved Dual SIM Support

    The Pixel series has been known for their stellar camera performance and stock Android. The Pixel series also has been called the iPhone of the Android world because of their simplicity. But last year, when the Apple iPhones were announced with Dual SIM connectivity in certain markets, Google had nothing similar to offer. Looks like this is all going to change as the Pixel 4 is reported to have improved Dual SIM functionality.

    The Pixel devices theoretically support Dual-SIM, when the Pixel 2 launched with eSIM in 2017. The phones have an in-built SIM and can take an additional SIM card separately. The problem with that was, that only one SIM could function at the same time. This made the feature rather useless.

    The Need For Dual SIM Devices

    Dual SIM has been one of the staple features of budgets smartphones in developing countries. It also has recently been making it to some flagships like the Huawei, Samsung and LG devices. The feature has recently made its way to the newest iPhones that were launched last year. It was available for users in countries like China and India. The feature used one eSIM and one nano-SIM card to function. 

    Dual SIM is a great feature for people who travel a lot, which makes great use for keeping one number for the place you’re traveling to. The feature has been already present for the longest time in almost every budget smartphone in India and China. It is great that companies like Apple and Google have finally started to give this feature their much needed importance. The feature saves a lot of hassle and saves the headache of carrying two devices.

    Apple Has Successfully Fixed The Eavesdropping FaceTime Bug

    Last week was a tough one for Apple, as iOS devices were hit by a major bug in the Facetime application. Furthermore, a Facebook project was caught spying on users that violated Apple’s Enterprise Developer Program policies. Fortunately, Apple was able to revoke Facebook’s enterprise certificate on its devices that halted the cruel project. 

    What Is The Eavesdropping Bug?

    Last week a 14-year old high school student from the US discovered a bug on Apple’s iOS devices that ran on iOS 12. The teenager discovered that iOS 12 devices would allow users to listen to another FaceTime user by calling them and adding themselves to a group call before the contact answered. This case caused a huge stirrup as iOS devices were previously considered significantly secure than its Android counterparts. 

    Apple’s Solution

    After the eavesdropping bug was originally discovered, Apple manually disabled the servers that allowed FaceTime connectivity. Apple has released iOS 12.1.4 update for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad that has successfully fixed the FaceTime bug. Also, the FaceTime servers have now been reset and are functioning properly.

    Xiaomi Working On A Smartphone With A Quad-Edge Display

    Xiaomi has been very successful lately. Its philosophy of giving great specs at an affordable price has resonated with the audience. But it is not really known to innovate, but rather is seen as a follower in technologies. But lately, Xiaomi is trying to catch up with some unique ideas of its own. Be it the Mi MIX 3’s manual slider and also the 48MP camera in the budget Redmi Note 7, Xiaomi is trying to differentiate itself. Patents filed by Xiaomi for a smartphone with a Quad-Edge display have been found.

    The patent was filed on February 5, at the World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO). The patent shows a full screen smartphone with a dual camera on the back. The idea of edge screens was started by Samsung with its Note Edge. Today, the Galaxy S and the Note series is available with a Dual edge display.

     

    This patent shows a Quad-edge display, meaning display curved on all sides. This could mean that Xiaomi is working on a smartphone with this feature and also has figured out the technology.

    Xiaomi Smartphone With A Quad-Edge Display

    The patent images filed by Xiaomi show an all screen smartphone, without any buttons and just a Type-C port. There is no headphone jack, speaker or even an earpiece in sight. The smartphone could also be using the technology used in Meizu Zero or the Vivo Apex 2. The phone shows a dual camera at the back and no camera or fingerprint sensor in sight at the front. The fingerprint sensor can be embedded in the display. About the selfie camera, maybe Xiaomi has figured out how to put one inside the screen.
