Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra to skip the megapixel war

July 6, 2021 by Web Desk

The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra was previously reported to feature Samsung’s upcoming 200MP sensor, but new sources contradict this. Samsung-related leakster, has now backed up previous claims, saying that the company will not make another push in the megapixel fight.

The company intends to employ a “polished” new version of the current 108MP ISOCELL HM3 sensor instead of the 200MP sensor. Regrettably, there are no specifics about what “polished” means.

We’re also curious if Samsung is having trouble producing a high-quality 200MP sensor, or if the company has just concluded there’s still a lot of potential in the 108MP ISOCELL imager to be explored before moving on.

OnePlus 9 released in Pakistan with Hasselblad Cameras

July 4, 2021 by Web Desk

The OnePlus 9 was recently released in Pakistan, while the Oneplus Nord CE 5G will be released soon. The latest flagship series is based on top-shelf silicone, next-generation quick charge, and high-end co-engineered cameras. Here are the pricing details and characteristics.

OnePlus cameras have traditionally fallen short of their best promise, which is why the brand has developed OnePlus 9 with the leading premium optics company Hasselblad. It features natural color reproduction, picture-perfect nightscape imaging, and a ‘pro’ mode that creatively controls the camera system.

A 48MP f/1.8 wide lens, a 50MP Sony ultrawide camera, and a low-resolution monochrome sensor make up the camera cluster. By adopting a Freeform lens to adjust light before it touches the sensor, the wide-angle IMX766 sensor takes in more light and removes almost all distortion. The OnePlus 9 shoots video in ultra-high-definition 8K but lacks optical image stabilization.

The flagship phone is charged using OnePlus’ most advanced solution, Warp Charge 65T. It takes just 29 minutes to fully charge the inbuilt 4500 mAh battery. Wireless Qi charging up to 15W is also supported by the flagship.

The frame has beveled corners, a vintage alert slider, and Dolby.

When you turn the OnePlus 9 over, you’ll see a flat display with a hole punched through one of the corners. It’s a 6.55-inch 1080P panel with Gorilla Glass protection. The OnePlus 9 comes pre-installed with the latest version of OxygenOS, which is based on Android 11. The 12GB + 256GB variant is currently available for Rs. 134,999, however the 8GB + 128GB variant may not make it to Pakistan.

Samsung Galaxy A03s coming soon with thumbprint security

July 1, 2021 by Web Desk

The Samsung Galaxy A02s was released last year, and the company will shortly release a new entry-level phone. In May, prototype-based product mockups of the anticipated Samsung Galaxy A03s were leaked. And it’s now been certified, indicating that it’ll be released soon.

Under the model designation SM-A037F, the Samsung Galaxy A03s is openly listed on the Bluetooth SIG database. It doesn’t contain any system information because it’s a connectivity certification.

The A03s’ model number and Bluetooth 5.0 capabilities are confirmed in the documentation. Because ‘s’ variants are often more expensive, the Galaxy A03s has a higher-end feature sheet than the Galaxy A03.

We also know that the Samsung Galaxy A03s has a 6.5-inch IPS LCD with a 720P resolution. A notch seeps into the display, housing a 5MP selfie camera. It’s encircled with a medium-weight bezel.

Previously, Samsung’s entry-level devices lacked fingerprint security, but that is no longer the case with the Galaxy A03s. It’s the first A0x model to include the feature at a Samsung-friendly price. The scanner and the power button have been combined. Another long-overdue change is the USB interface, which now employs a modern USB-C port rather than the out-of-date MicroUSB port.

A triple camera is installed on a rectangular plate on the rear of the Galaxy A03s. For portrait and macro images, we’re looking at a standard setup with a 13MP wide sensor and two low-res 2MP sensors. So far, no internal specifications or pricing information has surfaced.

Xiaomi is rumored to be working on phone with a 192MP Camera

June 29, 2021 by Web Desk

Samsung is developing a 200MP sensor, and Xiaomi will almost certainly be the first to use it. Little was known about either, but the disclosures have revealed more information about both the sensor and the phone.

The sensor will have a resolution of 192MP and will allow 16-in-1 pixel binning, resulting in an output resolution of exactly 12MP. This sensor should be able to support native 4x zoom if cropping is used instead of binning. It should also provide high-quality digital zoom from 1x to 4x with various intermediate levels.

All of this will demand a lot of number-crunching power, which will be provided by the SM8450, the Snapdragon 888’s successor. This chip, tentatively dubbed the “Snapdragon 895,” will be manufactured on a 4 nm technology and will include next-generation Kryo 780 CPU cores (based on the new ARMv9), a new Adreno 730 GPU, a new Spectra 680 GPU, and a new X65 5G modem.

Its screen will have a single punch hole and dramatically curved sides. We’ll have to wait a little longer for the under-display cameras.

It’s yet unclear which Xiaomi series the phone will be part of. The experimental Mi Mix Alpha was the first 108 MP phone, followed by the mass-market Mi CC9 Pro, which was released globally as the Mi Note 10 (Pro). Those were, of course, mid-range Snapdragon 700-series chipsets, not the day’s flagship chip.

One thing is certain: this phone will not be released this year; instead, it will be revealed in late December and sold in early January, similar to the Mi 11. The availability of chipsets will most likely decide the date.

Samsung Galaxy M52 5G camera specs leaked

June 29, 2021 by Web Desk

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy M52 5G will be the first handset from the company to use the Snapdragon 778G SoC, according to a recent Geekbench listing, and now a new leak reveals more details regarding the camera system.

The camera specifications for the Samsung Galaxy M52 5G have been leaked.

The Galaxy M52 5G will have a quad-camera configuration led by a 64MP primary sensor, according to GalaxyClub’s secret information. A 12MP ultrawide camera and a 5MP specialized macro camera are also planned, implying that the fourth camera will most likely be a depth sensor.

On the back, the Galaxy A52 has the same camera arrangement as the Galaxy S5.

A 32MP selfie camera is reported to be on the front.

Samsung Galaxy A22 Is Coming To Pakistan By Next Month

June 25, 2021 by Web Desk

Samsung recently unveiled a new A-series phone, the Samsung Galaxy A22 is designed to compete with budget phones coming out of China.

According to sources, the New A22 will soon be launching in Pakistan. No formal announcements have been made yet for the Galaxy A22, but you can expect a quiet launch on the brand’s social media pages. The pricing and availability should follow the official launch.

Here’s what the Samsung Galaxy A22 offers.

The frame and backplate of the new model for 2021 are made from plastic — available in Black, White, Mint, and Violet colors. One 3.5mm headphone jack, a side-facing fingerprint reader, and a dedicated slot for storage expansion are also part of the Galaxy A22 build. Four cameras are arranged in a matrix style in a corner.

Its camera system is perhaps the highlight of the Galaxy A22. It’s a versatile array featuring a 48MP f/1.8 wide lens powered by optical image stabilization (OIS) and an 8MP ultrawide lens with a 123-degree FoV. The OIS technology allows for crisper and brighter shots in low-light environments. Plus, two 2MP macro and portrait cameras round off this setup.

The Galaxy A22 has an octa-core processor, clocked at 2.0GHz. Android 11-based OneUI Core 3.1 ships with the A22 right out of the box. The battery is 5000 mAh and can be charged at 15W. You get 4GB of memory and 64GB/128GB of storage.

June 15, 2021 by Web Desk

Nokia X20 and Nokia X10 launched in Pakistan with blazing fast 5G

June 15, 2021 by Web Desk

The all-new Nokia X-series, featuring Nokia X20 and Nokia X10, just launched in Pakistan with speedy 5G and a promise of three years of software upgrades.

Nokia X10

Nokia X10 features a standard Nokia build — donut-style camera housing and thick bezel with Nokia’s branding stamped on it.

The new smartphone has a 6.67” IPS LCD with a Full HD resolution but a high touch sampling refresh rate is not to be found here.

The X10 is toughened with Gorilla Glass 3. The on-screen camera is 8MP.

The frame is plastic and contains a side-facing thumbprint reader, a dedicated button for the Google Assistant, and a 3.5mm audio jack. You can pick from Forest and Snow colors. On the back of the phone, you’d find a quad-camera co-engineered with ZEISS — a 48MP wide lens, a 5MP ultra-wide lens, and two 2MP depth and macro sensors.

The Nokia X10 packs a Snapdragon 480 chipset combined with 128GB/64GB of storage, 6/4GB of memory, and powered by pure Android11 with a 4470 mAh battery that is capable of fast charging at 18W.

[amazonad category=”Mobile”]

Nokia X20

Nokia X20 has the same body, chip, battery, and display as the X10, except it’s available in Midnight Sun and Nordic Blue colors. Its screen is protected with Gorilla Glass 5, but it shares the dimensions and specifications of the X10.

The camera setup is where you’d find the difference. X20 has a 64MP sensor instead of 48MP. The 5MP ultrawide and the 2MP macro sensor are the same as on X10.

The chipset and battery are brought over from X10. However, X20 pairs them with 128GB of storage and 6GB/8GB of memory.

Voilá AI Artist | what you should know about the latest viral selfie app

June 14, 2021 by Web Desk

If you haven’t already been swept up by Voilá AI Artist, here’s what the app does and why you might want to be careful using it.

Voilá is a photo manipulation app for iOS and Android that takes a photo of your face and, using some AI magic, turns your photo into something that looks like a Pixar/Disney cartoon character.

That’s pretty much it! There are not many advanced editing features you find in similar apps like FaceApp. You can choose from three different variations once the filter is applied.

How viral apps can hurt your privacy?

Canceling a paid subscription to a viral app (or, better yet, not subscribing in the first place) is the easy part. What’s harder is keeping your data private when you download the new app that’s going viral.

As with many other apps of its kind, Voilá AI Artist gets permission to transfer and store your images—necessary if you want to use the app—which the company says it deletes after 24 to 48 hours, but there’s no way to confirm if that actually happens.

The app also uses your data for targeted advertising, which is unfortunately common. It is important to be aware of how viral apps can be used as data collection schemes.

For example, The 2018 Cambridge Analytica scandal, began with a Facebook app that paid users to answer a few questions, but then gathered more data than it revealed about users’ friends and family.

It’s up to you to decide what risks you want to take with your money, data, and privacy, but it’s important to be informed about what those risks are.
