Huawei Dethrones Xiaomi As Smartphone Leader In China Canalys

“Huawei’s ascent to China’s smart phone throne is a remarkable feat, especially in the context of an increasingly cutthroat and maturing Chinese smart phone market,” said Jessie Ding, a Research Analyst at Canalys. China’s smartphone market is almost saturated and the growth as a whole has been slowing down. That hasn’t helped Xiaomi, who now seems to be struggling to meet its 80 million global shipments for 2015, according to Canalys....

Ios 14 Iphone Widgets What Are They And How To Use

Even though Apple announced iOS 14 at the WWDC 2020 earlier this year, the public rollout was an accelerated one. As a result, it was subject to exasperation for a lot of app developers during the initial days of the release — mostly because the developers could not make the necessary changes in their app, and therefore, could not provide functionalities, like the revamped widgets, to the users updating to iOS 14, right away....

Ipad 2019 Edition Is The Ipad Now Officially A Notebook Step In

Well, in the event (pun intended), a new iPad was indeed released. The iPad (seventh generation), to be exact. And even though it was released almost a year and a half after the sixth-generation iPad, it did not really seem to be too different – it had a slightly larger display (10.2 inches as compared to 9.7 inches of its predecessor) but with the same pixel density and it had the same processor (A10 fusion), the same set of cameras, the same fingerprint scanner, similar battery life and the same support for the same Apple Pencil (first generation)....

It Ain T Small But Is The Iphone 12 Pro Max Really Huge

But wait a minute, is it actually so? Those “small” Pixel 4a feels Size is a rather dodgy matter and when combined with other factors, it can sometimes make judgments seem a little odd. We saw it happen when a lot of folks went crazy over how small the Pixel 4a was when it actually was pretty much similar in size to the iPhone 11 Pro. Of course, in that case, the much lighter weight of the Pixel made some folks think it was smaller than it actually was – just for the record, we do think the Pixel 4a was a remarkably compact device....

Lenovo K6 Note Review The K6 Power Clone With A Bigger Display

Wait, isn’t that just a bigger K6 Power? The new K6 Note launched by Lenovo actually looks like a photocopy of the Lenovo K6 Power that has had too much Horlicks in its childhood. Apart from the 0.5-inch added on the display size and a few minor tweaks, the two smartphones look like a pair of identical twins. The Lenovo K6 Note boasts an all-metal unibody design like many other smartphones in this price range (something we talked of in detail and despair before)....

Explained Wireless Charging Everything You Need To Know

Samsung was one of the earliest adopters of Qi Wireless Charging and arch-rival Apple joined late to the party in 2017 with the iPhone X. While all this is still fairly new on consumer tech, wireless charging or wireless induction has existed for more than a century, thanks to Nikola Tesla who discovered that energy can be transferred wirelessly with the help of magnetism. While there are much bigger applications of wireless charging or magnetic induction in general, we are going to stick to the technology in smartphones keeping in mind the scope of this article....

Face Off Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Vs Lenovo P2 Battle Of The Battery Masters

Looks and appearance Separated by less than 5 grams in weight, both the phones are very well built. Lots of metal in them, chamfered edges, shiny portions, good feel in the hands and well built and fit buttons. As slippery as they both can get, we favor the P2 with its curved back, and thinner frame by just a bit in spite of packing a bigger battery compared to the Redmi Note 4....

The biggest reason for this is the display itself. For one, there is no home button beneath it (a great chance for us to replay our tribute to the Home button). For another, the bezels around it have been trimmed. Notwithstanding all the talk about edge to edge displays, the fact is that there are bezels around it, although they are almost of equal width relatively narrow by tablet standards....

First Cut Vivo V15 Pro Popping Up At A New Price Point

Generally trendy with a touch of unconventional Glass backs are in. Color gradient is in. Shades of blue are in. And guess what? The Vivo V15 Pro brings all of these three elements to its design language. Dipped in two shades of blue (dark around the corners and light in the middle), the glass bearing back is anything but subtle, and shines. When held on a certain angle, you would be able to see the slanted pixelated lines under the glass that add a bit of texture to the flashy smooth back....

First Cut Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra Big Camera Bumpy Beefy And The Best

That camera bump…is not just a camera bump And ah, that brings us to perhaps the most striking non-spec aspect of the phone – its design. We have been getting used to camera bumps on phones in recent times. But if other phones had bumps, the Mi 11 Ultra has a speed breaker. The camera unit on the back is literally like a black slab placed on a ceramic floor (yes, the back is ceramic – no glass, glastic, or carbonate for this flagship)....
