OnePlus budget friendly smartwatch to be launched soon

OnePlus budget friendly smartwatch
  • The Nord Watch has already been receiving teasers from OnePlus India.
  • It is anticipated to be a cheaper version of the current OnePlus Watch based on its moniker.
  • The watch will have a 240 x 280 screen resolution and contains other health-related features.

The rumors regarding a new OnePlus smartwatch were accurate.

The Chinese company has announced that it would shortly introduce the Nord Watch, a new smartwatch.

It is anticipated to be a cheaper version of the current OnePlus Watch based on its moniker.

The Nord Watch has already been receiving teasers from OnePlus India, signaling the impending arrival.

The new wristwatch appears to have a typical wearable design with a square display, curved body, noticeable lugs, and a crown on the side, similar to the Apple Watch.

It sports a straightforward black silicone band that blends well with the watch’s grey appearance.

Whether it will be a fitness band pro max or a full-fledged smartwatch is still up in the air.

OnePlus refers to its primary line of wearables as “smartwatches,” despite the fact that they are less useful than those of its competitors.

Given that the Nord Watch will be a less expensive version of the original, this might be a similar situation.

We are aware that the watch will have a 240 x 280 screen resolution from earlier rumors.

The heart rate sensor, SpO2 monitoring, sleep monitoring, step counting, fitness tracking, and other health-related features will all be supported.

Additionally, it will display your notifications and allow you to manage music playback on your phone.

Also unknown are the battery life and whether splash resistance will be built into the device.

The watch is still listed as “Coming Soon” and those are the only details we currently know.

Although there isn’t an official launch date set in stone just yet, because the teaser campaign has already begun, it won’t be long until further information is made public.

Facebook induces mental health decline; study

Facebook induces mental health decline
  • The use of Facebook has been directly linked to a “worsening” rise in complaints of anxiety and sadness among students.
  • The suicide rate among 10- to 24-year-olds was steady from 2000 to 2007 but rose 57% between 2007 and 2017.
  • A total of 4.3 billion people on the planet have at least one social media account.

The use of Facebook has been directly linked to a “worsening” rise in complaints of anxiety and sadness among college students, according to recent research.

In the first 2.5 years of the platform’s existence, college students who had accounts on the site were 20% more likely to experience anxiety and 7% more likely to experience depression, according to the study, which was published in the American Economic Review.

Students at Harvard gained access to Facebook first in 2004, followed by those from Columbia, Stanford, and Yale institutions.

Researchers compared the mental health questionnaires conducted on these campuses with those conducted on college campuses without access to the platform using medical data from these universities.

Despite the fact that there have been hundreds of studies linking social media use to deteriorating mental health, researchers claim that their special methodology has allowed them to confirm the connection.

According to the study, which was co-authored by Ro’ee Levy of Tel Aviv University, “unfavorable social comparisons” are probably to blame for the rise in young people’s anxiety and melancholy.

“As we all know, social media platforms are widely used today. Users struggle to comprehend that what they see online may not always mirror reality because they cause jealousy.”

“How much more so when the phenomenon was brand-new, 16–18 years ago,” Levy told.

Another participant in the study and assistant professor at MIT Sloan, Alexey Makarin, stated that “the effects seem to intensify with time.”

“It appears as though the effect is stronger with the sophomore, who had greater exposure,” Makarin said, according to MIT Sloan’s website, if a freshman at Harvard had access to Facebook for one semester and a sophomore for two semesters in late fall 2004.

When Makarin first started using social media, he said that he thought about mental health as “just one more” aspect of it, but after doing his research, he stated, “I began to know how truly horrible the situation is, and it remained with me.”

“Any insights into what’s driving this tendency that this work, or others, may offer, will be incredibly helpful to society,” he added.

The suicide rate among 10- to 24-year-olds was steady from 2000 to 2007, but rose 57% between 2007 and 2017.

This is according to data from the Centers for Disease Control.

Facebook now boasts daily users of 2.5 billion. A total of 4.3 billion people on the planet have at least one social media account.

In 2021, the typical user spent 2.5 hours per day on social media, according to a study by the American Economic Review.

ASUS launches ROG phone 6D series with top-notch specs

ASUS launches ROG phone 6D series
  • Asus ROG Phone 6D series makes its appearance worldwide after several days of teasers.
  • MediaTek Dimensity 900 Plus SoC is included inside the latest gaming smartphones from Asus.
  • The smartphones also have a ROG Vision display on the back.

The Asus ROG Phone 6D series makes its appearance worldwide after several days of teasers. Two models, the ROG Phone 6D and ROG Phone 6D Ultimate, make up the lineup.

The new gaming smartphones from Asus are powered by MediaTek’s most recent flagship processor rather than Qualcomm’s, as the teases and leaks indicated.

They also have a few modest alterations when they arrive.

Let’s look at the features of these phones, together with their cost and availability.

Asus ROG Phone 6D Series specs

A MediaTek Dimensity 900 Plus SoC is included inside the ROG Phone 6D and ROG Phone 6D Ultimate.

For those who don’t know, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 CPU powers the ROG Phone 6 and the ROG Phone 6 Pro from a while back.

In addition, newer devices come with LPDDR5x RAM rather than LPDDR5 RAM, but storage is the same (UFS 3.1).

However, the highest configuration is limited to 16GB RAM for the 6D Ultimate and 12GB RAM for the 6D, respectively.

In contrast, up to 16GB and 18GB of RAM can be had for the ordinary 6 and 6 Pro, respectively.

Instead of Bluetooth 5.2, the most recent versions provide Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity.

Last but not least, the 6D Ultimate has a slot on the back that can be unlocked and used to lower the temperature with the AeroActive Cooler accessory (included in the box).

The formal name of this innovative cooling system is AeroActive Portal.

The remaining characteristics of the ROG Phone 6D series are identical to those of the ROG Phone 6 series, with the exception of the aforementioned alterations.

As a result, it has a 6.78-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2448 x 1080 pixels, a refresh rate of up to 165Hz, an in-screen fingerprint sensor, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection.

On the back, there is a triple camera setup with a 50MP Sony IMX766 primary sensor, a 13MP ultra-wide sensor, and a 5MP macro sensor.

While a 12MP camera for selfies and video calls is located on the front of the phones. In terms of connectivity, there are dual SIM, 5G, WiFi 6E, GNSS, and NFC possibilities.

The smartphones also have a ROG Vision display on the back, dual stereo speakers, triple microphones, an IPX4 rating, and two USB Type-C connections.

Both ROG UI and Zen UI are available, and Android 12 is booted. Two Android updates and two years of security updates are promised by Asus.

Last but not least, a 6,000mAh battery that supports 65W fast cable charging powers the gadgets.

Asus ROG Phone 6D Series pricing & availability

There is only one shade of Space Gray available for the Asus ROG Phone 6D series. In the upcoming weeks, it will retail in the UK at the following prices.

Asus ROG Phone 6D costs £799, while the ROG Phone 6D Ultimate costs £1,199.

The price in other markets has not yet been disclosed by the corporation. These two phones won’t be offered in North America.

Apple iPhone 14 Pro camera shakes with 3rd party apps; details

Apple iPhone 14 Pro camera shakes
  • The new iPhone 14 Pro series has a 48-megapixel primary camera for better fluid video capture.
  • However, some apps such as Instagram and Snapchat are having issues with the OIS system.
  • This makes videos that have been shot and posted on social media unusable.

Recently, Apple announced the eagerly awaited iPhone 14 series.

However, Apple appears that things didn’t go as well as expected since the new iPhone models have some difficulties with standard system applications like FaceTime and iMessage.

According to a recent claim, the higher-end Pro models’ cameras are also affected by a flaw.

Numerous people have reported having problems with their new iPhone 14 Pro series cameras, according to a report.

For those who are unaware, the 48-megapixel primary camera on the back of the iPhone 14 Pro series includes an Action Mode for more fluid video capture.

However, it appears that some applications developed by third parties are having trouble utilizing this upgraded camera sensor.

Currently, a number of 2022 iPhone customers have reported that using well-known social media apps like Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat causes the camera module to shake.

The camera problem gives the videos an unsteady, jerky appearance.

This makes these videos that have been shot and posted on social media useless. Additionally, posts on the same flaw are being posted on Reddit as a result of complaints about this problem.

The OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) system’s trembling is now thought to be the main cause of this problem.

Notably, the problem doesn’t affect the base iPhone 14 model because it employs an older OIS system as opposed to Apple’s new 48-megapixel primary camera, which uses second-generation Sensor-Shift OIS technology.

The Qualcomm Smart Transmit 3.0, which includes the Snapdragon X70 modem and delivers 5G connectivity and faster uplink speeds, is also highlighted by the FCC approval.
