Forget Apple’s iPhone 11, This Is The Smartphone To Buy

Apple deserves a lot of credit because its impressive core upgrades to the iPhone 11 (guide), iPhone 11 Pro (guide) and iPhone 11 Pro Max (guide) make them much better smartphones than their ageing designs suggest. But now we know Apple has something much more exciting lined up. 

Last month, a major Bloomberg exclusive revealed Apple is bringing Touch ID back with the 2020 iPhone. Now Patently Apple has discovered how Apple plans to make this work, and it blows away anything we have seen before. 

Breaking it down in new patents, Apple explains that its next-gen Touch ID sensor will sit under the display. But the big news is – unlike similar systems from rivals – the sensor area will fill a large section of the display (making it easy to hit) and read gestures. The latter part is fascinating because Face ID already requires a confirmatory swipe, so Apple could build dual biometric authentication into the new iPhone without users requiring another step. The result would be by far the most secure smartphone ever made. 

Moreover, Apple hasn’t been subtle about its intentions. Before today, the company had already filed five in-display Touch ID patents since December (1,2,3,4,5) and this is the sixth. At this point, it’s an open secret. 

Apple has also given away why it would require such game-changing security after it filed patents showing how iPhones could replace your passport. The integration of dual biometrics would enable the company to pull this off. After all, Samsung’s embarrassing Galaxy S10 fingerprint reader debacle this week would never have happened were there a second confirmatory biometric system. 

And this is just the start. Acclaimed Apple-insider Ming Chi-Kuo has confirmed Apple will bring an “all-new form factor design” to the iPhone in 2020 as well as 5G for every model. Also making the cut are long-range 3D cameras, new screen sizes, 120Hz ProMotion displays and the long-awaited switch to USB-C. 

So yes, Apple kept the iPhone ticking along in 2019. But in 2020 we’re set for a game-changer. 

XIAOMI MI MIX 4: A NEW REAL IMAGE RAISES EXPECTATIONS EVEN FURTHER

The launch of Xiaomi Mi Mix 4 has been a big wish of all fans of the brand. It is believed that this phone will be revealed soon and now a real image emerges that makes the expectation around it increase.

The quality of the revealed image is definitely not the best, but you can understand the main features of the equipment. We see a device with a curved side screen and narrow margins. This is a similar image to another that emerged last week, depicting a mysterious smartphone from the company.

The Mi Mix line is a family of smartphones that excels in its design with very narrow bezels around the display. The smartphone we see in this image fits this philosophy, so it is plausible that this is actually the Xiaomi Mi Mix 4.

WHERE IS THE FRONT CAMERA?

This is a reasonable question we may have after looking at this photograph. The front camera of the device does not appear anywhere, which shows that Xiaomi hid it somewhere.

Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 has come with a front camera with a slider mechanism. But some sources believe that this will not be the solution adopted on the Mi Mix 4. This gives rise to the possibility of it being pop-up. The Chinese tech already does it in the Mi 9T and we don’t see why it couldn’t do it with this phone.

Another possibility is its incorporation in the screen, but that seems to be a remote hypothesis. These sensors are not yet consumer-ready. And we had no indication that Xiaomi could be developing such a camera in the near future.

Rumors hold that the Xiaomi Mi Mix 4 could be unveiled on October 24. In the company of the Mi Note 10. In the case of the latter. This is the rebirth of a line that hasn’t seen any new models since 2017.

As for the Mix 4 specifications, this is expected to be a real high end. In fact, the Snapdragon 855+ processor, 8GB RAM and triple camera are strong possibilities.

Windows 10 20H1’s Latest Build Introduces Improved Swift Pair Experience for Everyone

Microsoft is releasing a new build of Windows 10 to Insiders in the Fast Ring. The update isn’t a massive one, but it includes one substantial change. The latest build, 19002, brings a new Swift Pair experience for all Insiders.

Microsoft first introduced the improved Swift Pair experience with Windows 10 build 18985, but it was only available to 50% of Insiders. With today’s build, the feature is available to everyone.

So what exactly is this new Swift Pair experience? Windows 10 now lets you pair with a Bluetooth device right from the notifications without needing to even open up the Settings app. The new Swift Pair experience offers a faster pairing time and an improved interface that shows more details about the device that you are trying to connect to.

There is obviously a limitation: Swift Pair only supports certain devices, and that includes the Microsoft Bluetooth Keyboard, Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse, Surface Ergonomic Keyboard, Surface Precision Mouse, Microsoft Modern Mobile Mouse, Surface Mobile Mouse, Microsoft Arc Mouse, Surface Arc Mouse, and Surface Headphones. So if you have any other device, this new Swift Pair experience won’t be available for you at all when trying to pair over Bluetooth.

Microsoft’s also fixed a really annoying bug in recent versions of Windows 10 with the latest build where the acrylic/blur effect in the Action Center didn’t appear until after the Action Center opening animation had finished.

Samsung’s Radical New Galaxy Smartphone Revealed

Samsung has had a bad week. First more major Galaxy S11 details leaked, then the Galaxy S10 and Note 10 were caught up in an embarrassing security debacle. And now there’s another reason to skip Samsung’s 2019 smartphones altogether.

In separate reports, acclaimed Korean site The Elec and popular Samsung insider Ice Universe have revealed Samsung will release a smartphone next year with the camera built under the display. Furthermore, it won’t launch in the models you expect. 

“Samsung will launch an under display camera phone next year! Not S11, not Fold 2,” said Ice Universe in a cryptic tweet. 

Adding flesh to these bones, The Elec explained that Samsung calls the technology ‘UDC’ (literally, Under Display Camera) internally and it works by integrating a transparent display over the punch hole. The result is no notch, no punch hole and no need for a pop-up camera. Manufacturing will begin this month with the company “planning to bring in mass production facilities early next year.”

Samsung has also been quite open about its plans in this area. Back in November 2018, Samsung product marketing director Hassan Anjum announced the ‘New Infinity’ display UDC panel and claimed they “are just around the corner, and I can’t wait to tell you more about them.”

Since then, Samsung has been silent but with rival Oppo revealing its plans for similar tech back in June and a recent telling patent from Samsung surfacing earlier this week, plans are clearly afoot. And if it won’t make the Galaxy S11 or the Galaxy Fold 2 (previous generations were announced in February) then it may well debut in the Galaxy Note 11. 

Interestingly, UDC technology would also allow Samsung to get back into facial recognition because the sensors can also be hidden under the display. With pressure here hotting up from Google’s Pixel 4 and Apple’s dual biometric iPhone plans, the New Infinity Display can’t come soon enough. 

All of which makes 2020 a massive year for Samsung. After all, the heavily leaked Galaxy S11 is expected to deliver a groundbreaking camera, upgraded design, major performance increases, next-gen memory, a supersized fingerprint sensor and AI-focused image processing. And that is before the Fold 2, some potentially revolutionary new battery tech and the New Infinity phones. 

Why is Samsung going so far? BecauseApple’s next iPhones will be radically reinvented as well. So 2020 looks like a year where we all win. 

Windows 10X: Everything we know so far

Windows 10X is launching next year on a new wave of foldable PCs. Here’s what we know so far.

On October 2, Microsoft announced Windows 10X alongside the Surface Neo at a hardware event in New York City. Not much was shared around the OS itself, outside of a planned release window of “Holiday 2020” alongside the Surface Neo and a brief demo of the new user experience you can expect to see when it starts shipping. But just what is Windows 10X and what does it mean to you? Here’s everything we know.

Windows 10X is a new version of Windows 10 that Microsoft says has been built from the ground up for foldable PC experiences in both dual-screen and single-screen configurations. It’s built on top of a new modern version of Windows 10 that guts legacy components and features in favor of contemporary user experiences and enhanced security. This means everything from the Windows Shell to the underlying OS has been re-done with modern technologies, while still maintaining legacy app support for those who need it.

Legacy and modern app support

Win32 programs, which Microsoft considers to be a legacy app platform, now run in a containerized mode on Windows 10X. This means the components required to run Win32 apps are only active when the user is actively running a Win32 program. This reduces system load when not running a Win32 application, which improves battery life and system performance overall. Containerizing the Win32 layer also makes the OS much more secure, as Win32 programs are now sandboxed and can’t negatively affect system files.

Unlike the containerized Win32 programs, UWP and web apps run “natively” on Windows 10X. Users shouldn’t notice a difference in performance between UWP and Win32 programs, even though the Win32 programs are being containerized on top of the OS. It’s great to see that Microsoft is supporting legacy apps on Windows 10X, as many Windows apps today are still Win32.

Microsoft is hoping developers start to update their apps to support the new dual-screen and foldable screen designs that they expect to start shipping at the end of next year. A new feature called “spanning” is being introduced as an API that lets developers take advantage of the extended display capabilities from using a foldable PC. Microsoft will begin talking more about the developer story in the coming weeks.

A new user experience

Regarding the design, Windows 10X features a new shell — the user interface — built with modern technologies, that’s adaptive and can change on the fly depending on the “posture” your device is being used in. For example, with a foldable PC, the user might want to use it in several different ways; as a laptop, or tablet, or in tent mode for movies. Because of this, the software must be flexible and adapt on the fly to provide the best user experience no matter what posture you’re using.

The shell has been designed from the ground up with Microsoft’s Fluent Design System in mind, meaning it’s much cleaner and more consistent than the experience found on Windows 10 today. It has a new adaptive taskbar that minimizes when using touch, which can be swiped up to access pinned and running programs. There’s also a new Control Center that also houses system notifications, similar to an Android smartphone.

Pinned and running apps on the taskbar are now centered instead of positioned off to the left. Apps run in full-screen, as most foldable PCs will be used as tablets first and foremost. However, there will also be a mode that allows apps to run in a more traditional windowed environment, which will be handy when using a foldable PC as a laptop.

The Start menu itself has been redesigned with productivity in mind. It features a system-wide search bar along the top, with a grid of apps below that in place of live tiles. It also has a “recommended” area that suggests things the user might want to jump straight into, such as recent Office documents and websites.

Microsoft also improved Windows Update in a way that makes it much faster with Windows 10X. Feature updates will not take as long to install as they do on Windows 10, because those feature updates are now installed in the background without requiring a reboot until the update is done. So, just like Android and Chrome OS, when the update is ready to restart your PC, it’ll just restart like normal, and won’t take 15 minutes to finish installing the update before you’re back up and running.

Exclusive to foldables at launch

Windows 10X will only be available on devices that ship with it, and those devices will begin shipping in the second half of 2020. This means if you want to use Windows 10X, you will have to buy a new PC that comes with Windows 10X preinstalled. The OS will not be made available to purchase or download to install on existing hardware, and won’t be pushed as an update for Windows 10 users either.

In the future, we anticipate Microsoft will make Windows 10X available for more than just foldable PCs. While the OS will launch exclusivesly for foldables at the end of 2020, in the months after OEMs will be able to ship Windows 10X on traditional form factors such as laptops and 2-in-1’s, as the OS is capable of running on those form factors as well.

New MacBook Pro Images Feature 6 Ports And 16 Inches Of Power

Although Apple has not confirmed a new 16-inch version of the MacBook Pro, everyone is expecting the larger screened laptop to show up this month. And if the geekerati are very lucky, it’s going to look a lot like the latest concept renders published by Chance Miller at 9to5Mac.

Two features stand out. The first is of course the 16-inch display and how the smaller bezels will accommodate the larger screen into a top lid that looks to be close to the size of the current 15-inch model. Given the proliferation of edge-to-edge laptop screens from other manufacturers (notably but not limited to Dell’s XPS laptops) it shouldn’t come as a surprise to the wider laptop world that Apple is going down this route.

And with an expectation that the 15-inch MacBook Pro model is going to be discontinued, this 16-inch version will be a direct replacement but with a larger screen as one of the key selling points.

Another selling point in the render is the inclusion of six USB-C ports. This is up from 4 ports on the current 15-inch model. Although one of these will be taken up by the A/C charger, the extra potential power offered by two more ports cannot be overlooked.

These concept renders are based on much of the talk and chatter around the new MacBook Pro machines, so should be seen as an amalgamation of all the leaks with a bit of editorial input. Apple is still expected to hold a public launch event this month, with this MacBook Pro a potential product, alongside an updated iPad Pro, the reveal of Apple Tags, and the retail launch of the Mac Pro.

Motorola teases its foldable RAZR phone reveal for November 13th

We heard early this year that Motorola would be bringing back its iconic RAZR handset as a pricy smartphone with a vertically folding screen, and in February the company confirmed it was working on a foldable for this year. Now, as CNET reports, the company has sent out invites for a November 13th event that prominently displays the unmistakable silhouette of a classic RAZR V3 as part of an animated teaser image:

While it’s hard to tell for sure, it certainly looks like we’re seeing the RAZR’s signature hinge pulled away from the edge of the handset to reveal a different sort of hinge underneath — perhaps to better house a true foldable screen like Samsung’s Galaxy Fold.

Motorola appears to have multiple taglines for the event, but they all strongly hint at the foldable RAZR. The invite includes the phrase “You’re going to flip,” and the event will apparently be the “highly-anticipated unveiling of a reinvented icon,” according to CNET.

We may already know what this phone looks like, by the way, courtesy of these leaked images from Weibo.

CHUWI UBOOK PRO, M3-8100Y PROCESSOR PERFORMANCE

Recently, Chuwi launched versatile 2-in-1 tablet – UBook Pro on Indiegogo，which has attracted a lot of attention from users. The tablet is designed for office workers and students. It features a 12.3-inch 3:2 ratio IPS screen and the latest Intel core M3 8100Y processor, which performance improvements of 50% over the previous generation of UBook. Besides, portable U – shaped kickstand, full – function USB-C and many other improvements make it so popular on Indiegogo.

As an versatile 2-in-1 tablet，performance is the basic of all computer experiences. Below is the measured data of the UBook Pro with Intel 8100Y processor.

Benchmark test

CPU-Z

According to the cpu-z information, the UBook Pro features with the latest powerful Intel m3 8100Y processor. The processor equips with advanced 14nm process and dual core four thread. The highest frequency can reach 3.4GHz. In the cpu-z test, the single-core and multi-core scores reach up to 283.5 and 800.9 respectively.

GeekBench 4

In the GeekBench 4 test，the processor has a single-core score of 3731 and a multi-core score of 6115. This score is consistent with the high level of performance mentioned above.

Cinebench R15

Cinebench R15 is a comprehensive CPU and GPU performance testing software. It tests CPU and graphics card performance by rendering high-precision images and 3D graphics based on the Cinem4D engine. In this test, the 8100Y equipped with UHD Graphics 615 core Graphics CARDS scored a whopping 196cb and 27.18fps. Based on the above, the overall strength of UBook Pro performance is excellent.

AS SSD Benchmark

In the storage speed test session, UBook Pro achieved a continuous read and write speed of 480.61MB/s and 372.74MB/s by using SSD，which is more than five times the speed of the traditional HDD mechanical hard disk. The daily use experience has been greatly improved.

Actual experience

In addition to the above benchmark as a reference, UBook Pro also performs well in actual life. It can easily deal with daily office, learning and entertainment needs. It also can run Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere and so on.

In the test of the game project，It’s amazing that 8100Y can run large games like tomb raider and Metro smoothly. Playing some games after work can be very enjoyable for young people.

Combined with the above benchmark test results and actual experience, the m3-8100Y processor carried by UBook Pro has indeed strong performance. UBook Pro is one of the most powerful and versatile 2-in-1 tablet at similar price range. In addition to its excellent performance, other additional highlights also meet the needs of different users. It is worth mentioning that the price is very competitive in the market. UBook Pro is currently in the process of crowdfunding on indiegogo. Detailed information about multiple products and activities are available on the official promo page.

PIXEL 4 VS. IPHONE 11 PRO: A FIRST LOOK AT CAMERA PHOTO SAMPLES

Google has just unveiled its latest Pixel 4 smartphone, following weeks of leaks. There’s a new face unlock feature, a high refresh rate screen, a faster Google Assistant, and spatial awareness using radar. All of those improvements look great, and you should check out our full hands-on for all of the details. But Pixel is synonymous with photography, so I wanted to see how the Pixel 4 fared against Apple’s iPhone 11 Pro.

Google’s Pixel devices have been the ones to beat in smartphone photography for years, but strong Android competition from Huawei, Samsung, and others has challenged the Pixel’s camera recently. We even called Apple’s latest iPhone 11 Pro camera the best on the market in our review last month, so the Pixel 4 now has some serious competition to beat.

I took to the streets of London earlier today to try out the Pixel 4 and iPhone 11 Pro side by side. I took every photo at the same time, as close together as possible to get an identical image just using the automatic mode on both built-in camera apps. These photos were taken mostly in natural light and on a sunny and overcast day.

We won’t be testing the astrophotography feature in Night Sight or the high-quality zoom included on the Pixel 4 as we’ll have a review with these features soon. We wanted to provide some early side-by-side real-world shots for comparison ahead of that full review to get a better idea of what both cameras can do. Stay tuned for a full in-depth review where we’ll dig a lot deeper.

I started off in a typical London park, picking the light between the trees and capturing a stealthy cyclist who just managed to avoid the lens on the iPhone 11 Pro. Both handsets do a great job of capturing the natural light through the trees, the shadows, and a tiny bit of lens flare.

Next up, I wanted to try something with some color mixed with a lot of natural light that floods into Greenwich Market during the daytime. You’ll notice that the Pixel 4 does a much better job of balancing the light from the ceiling here, with far less saturation than the iPhone.

One of the more telling and interesting shots that I’ve taken today is of a simple fluffy yellow cushion. You’ll notice that the yellow fuzz looks a lot crisper on the iPhone 11 Pro (on the right) when you zoom in. On a phone screen, it’s difficult to see the differences until you zoom in.

Next up, it’s time for some human shots of hair and faces. The Pixel 4 does a far better job of capturing my face, beard, and skin detail. The colors are a little cold and dark, but the iPhone’s are far too warm. I prefer the detail and color in the Pixel 4 overall.

When it comes to human hair, we’ll need to do plenty of testing in a variety of lighting conditions, but the Pixel 4 does a better job of getting the correct color in our sample shots. The detail is very similar once you zoom in on both photos, though.

I’ll leave you with a few more images that you’ll really need to zoom in on in order to see the differences. Performance between the two during the day is pretty similar at first glance. Overall, you’ll notice that it’s difficult to pick between the two unless you zoom in for detail. Apple’s iPhone 11 Pro consistently looks more saturated with cooler tones, while the Pixel 4 opts for contrast in most shots and often looks warmer as a result.

We’ll be testing the Pixel 4 fully in the coming days, so stay tuned for a full review and plenty more sample photos.

What is the run time of hp battery?

hp batteries have two main ratings on them: Volts and Amperes. Because size and weight of batteries is limited when compared to larger batteries such as car batteries, most companies show their ratings with Volts and Milliamperes. One thousand Milliamperes equals 1 Ampere. When buying a battery, select batteries with the most Milliamperes (or mAh). Batteries are also rated by Watt-Hours, perhaps the simplest rating of all. This is found by multiplying the Volts and the Amperes together. For example:

  • 14.4 Volts, 4000mAh (Note: 4000mAh is equal to 4.0 Amperes).
  • 14.4 x 4.0 = 57.60 Watt-Hours

Watt-Hours signifies the energy needed to power one watt for one hour.
