Samsung Files Patent For Foldable Device With Three Screens

The market for foldable smartphones will soon get pretty heated up. The long-awaited devices are on the brink of commercial availability. Samsung has previously showcased a foldable smartphone & is very optimistic about it. The company expects to sell 1 million units of foldable smartphones within the first year of their launch. The company seems to fall short in the field of smartphones against Chinese OEM’s. But, the foldable technology devices might help Samsung maintain their supremacy. Recently, Samsung has filed yet another intriguing patent of a device with double fold screen.

Foldable Frenzy!

The biggest highlight of the patent is the S-shaped foldable triple screens. The three screens unfold into to seamless tablet display. The patent reveals two hinges on either side of the middle screen that connect it with the left and right screen. The device when folded looks like a thick stack of cards. Additionally, the folded edge looks very thin unlike the previously showcased Galaxy F.

The flexible mobile/ tablet device has rounded corners and a rectangular cutout at the back. The cutout will most probably house the rear camera and a fingerprint sensor if Samsung opts for one. The patent also shows a few slots at the bottom of the middle screen. The ports include a speakerphone grill, 3.5mm audio jack and what appears to be a USB Type-C port. As this is just a patent no certain specifications are currently available. But, the device will surely be a significant technological achievement which will open gates for a lot of other industries as well.

Apple Confirms T2 Chip Limits 3rd-Party Repairs On New Macs

Apple is pretty ruthless when it comes to their business strategies. The company is said to overprice many products accessories. It is also reported that they charge hefty sums of money for simple jobs like a screen or battery replacement. In the past, Apple has tried to limit users from purchasing non-authentic charging cables for the iPhones. Such charging cables would prompt as not supported when plugged in. Recently, Apple launched a new series of Macs with a built-in T2 security chip. The company claims it increases the security of devices but 3rd party repairers like iFixit profess otherwise. 3rd party repairers suggest that this is a move to limit the repair of Apple devices by non-certified technicians.

What Is The T2 Chip?

The T2 Chip is an IC (Integrated Circuit) which acts as a co-processor to the main CPU on Macs. According to Apple, the chip stores sensitive user data like the Touch ID details and cryptographic key which are essential for a device to boot. But, the T2 chip is not only limited to this and it is much more capable than basic security features. It can even leave a Mac device inoperable if the user opts for 3rd party components or repairs.

What’s Noteworthy

Recently, TheVerge asked Apple to comment on these allegations, which the company did reply to. The company agreed that the T2 Chip would lock down a Mac device if non-Apple certified service provider fixed a device. It is for the first time that Apple has openly acknowledged the fact. The company added that the T2 chip is critical for features like responding to ‘Hey Siri’ commands. It also prevents the microphones to be taken over by remote hackers when the lid of the device is closed. Conclusively, the chip can communicate with other parts on Mac devices, and Apple can control these devices however they wish. Whether in a positive manner like tightening the security or in a negative way by overcharging customers for repairs.

Galaxy S10 Lite Pricing & Specs Leaked
Samsung is expected to release the Galaxy S10 range of smartphones in Q1 of 2019 with major upgrades from the current generation. Recently Ben Geskin, a Concept designer has leaked the specifications and prices for the upcoming Galaxy S10 Lite. As the name suggests, it will be a low spec variant of the upcoming flagship Galaxy S10.

Galaxy S10 Lite Specifications:

The Galaxy S10 Lite will feature a flat Infinity-O display which the company recently showcased at their developer’s conference. The Infinity O is Samsung’s effort in creating a high screen-to-body ratio display. It has a circular cutout for the front-facing selfie camera and is surely a new approach when compared to the usual notch. The smartphone will have dual-rear cameras, exact details of which are unavailable at the moment.

The Galaxy S10 Lite will have a side mounted fingerprint sensor. It might be similar to the side mounted fingerprint sensor on the Galaxy A7 which also doubles as the power button. In terms of storage, the smartphone will be available in 3 RAM/ROM variants which are as follows:
- 4 GB RAM +64 GB ROM
- 6 GB RAM +64 GB ROM

Analyst Predicts iPhone XR Shipments To Be 30 % Lower
iPhone XR is the cheapest iPhone sold by Apple, from its latest lineup. Except for the Liquid Retina display, single camera, 3 GB RAM, IP 67 rating and lack of 3D Touch, it gets almost all the same specs as the more expensive iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max. The smartphone definitely catches a lot of attention due to its funky colours and low price, but that is not enough to rake in high sales, claims an analyst. Ming-Chi Kuo is a senior writer at Macrumors and is also an analyst at TF Securities, a financial services group in Asia-Pacific region. The analyst gathers information from Apple’s Asian supply chain to further pass it to his clients.

The analyst claims that the demand for Apple’s iPhone XR is less than expected and which might result in 30% lower shipments. Previously, it was estimated that Apple will ship 100 million units of the iPhone XR between Q4 of 2018 and Q3 of 2019. But now it is reckoned that the company will only be able to ship out around 70 million units of the handset during the given period.

Top factors affecting its demand are:
- Price of iPhone XR
- Competition from other smartphones
Additionally, the report points that overall sales of iPhones might also decline by 15-20 % in Q1 of 2019 compared to the this year. The demands might fall short, however, the iPhone XR is definitely a smartphone with solid performance, sturdy build, and top-notch specifications. For reference:

A ‘Concept Video’ Of The Samsung Galaxy F Surfaces

Foldable phones have been rumored for years and finally, Samsung showcased a working prototype of one such device in their developer’s conference. The device will most probably be called the Samsung Galaxy F, owing to its foldable screen. Recently, in an interview with Yonhapnews (a South Korean news agency), Samsung said that the Galaxy F will be commercially available in the first half of 2019.

The company also claims to sell at least 1 million units of the foldable phone within the first year of its launch. According to sources, the smartphone will have a hefty price tag of $ 1,770 (around 2 million Korean Won). Any technical specification except the screen size of the Galaxy F is currently unavailable. Recently, a YouTube channel with the username ‘Concept Creator’ has shared a concept video of the foldable Galaxy F.

Galaxy F Concept

The concept video shows a smartphone that folds out into a sleek looking tablet. The tablet mode has a 4.2:3 aspect ratio, edge-to-edge display with rounded corners and negligible bezels. In the smartphone mode, it has a smaller, 4.3-inch infinity display with thick top and bottom bezels. The front-facing selfie camera is present on the top bezel of the phone. The device has a clamshell style curved hinge that gives it the folding capabilities.

The power button & volume rockers are placed on the left side when the device is in phone mode. The Galaxy F concept also has a USB Type-C port, 3.5 mm headphone jack & dual bottom firing speakers. Additionally, the device also has dual rear cameras along with an LED flash and unidentified sensor.

The South Korean news agency also claims that the smartphone will cost $ 1,770 (around Rs 1,29,024 ). The steep price of the smartphone indicates that it might not be a mass market handset.

Galaxy F Features

The biggest highlight of the Galaxy F will definitely be its foldable display. Samsung says that the new smartphone will have a 4.6-inch display in regular mode and a 7.4-inch screen when unfolded. The foldable smartphone will also support Android Q’s continuity feature. It means when a user is running an app on a foldable device, it will seamlessly transfer between the two screen layouts.

It is an effort to maximise the screen real estate without having to opt for a slider like the one present on Mi Mix 3 and Honor Magic 2. The smartphone in the patent has extremely thin bezels which indicate the device will use swipe gestures to navigate to different menus. The image shows that the power button and volume rockers are present on the right side of the smartphone.

The patent also discloses that the smartphone will have a rear-mounted fingerprint and not an in-display one like the OnePlus 6T. Additionally, the device in the patent has a USB Type-C port at the bottom and a 3.5 mm audio jack at the top. The back of the smartphone has a capsule shape ridge which most probably will house dual cameras and an LED flash.

A Brain-Like SuperComputer With 1 Million Processors Is Here

Having taken up more than 15 Million Euros, 20 years of conception and more than 10 years of construction, the world’s largest brain-like supercomputer has finally got its final coprocessor, making it ready to be switched on. The machine just got its one-millionth processor. While the majority of its contributions will be towards science. It can also help assistants like Alexa and Siri better understand accents among different human beings.

Named the Spiking Neural Network Architecture or SpiNNaker for short. The supercomputer is capable of completing more than 200 million actions per second. Additionally, each of its chips has a 100 million transistors. The machine has been designed and developed by the School Of Computer Science at the University of Manchester and can model more biological neutrons than any other machine, in real time.

The Science Behind All The Processors

To understand how this supercomputer works, we just need to understand how the human brain works. The human brain sends out a series of messages through an intricate network of parallel communication architecture. computers on the other hand, send chunks of information from Point A to Point B, no matter how large the information is. The SpiNNaker on the other hand, mimics the brain and uses a number of parallel connections to simultaneously send billions of small bits of information to different destinations.

By doing so, the supercomputer ends up mimicking the billions of biological neurons present in the brain. The brain uses a spikes of electro chemical-energy to send this information across. The SpiNNaker uses large scale systems with electronic circuits to mimc the spikes seen as seen in the human brain.

The ultimate objective of the team is to make sure that they can mimic the entirety of the human brain. To put things in perspective, the 1 Million processor supercomputer can just mimic 1% of the brain. The supercomputer can then help scientists to better understand how the human brain works and the process it goes through. This will be a huge boost for neuroscience. On the technology front, the supercomputer can be used to help Alexa and Siri better understand human accents and how we interact with machines.
