In short, the code is part of Hydrogen OS open beta (meant for China) which was recently merged with Oxygen OS (meant for global) and is completely inactive. That means no data was getting uploaded from the clipboard app. In fact, the badwords.txt file is meant to filter out the type of text NOT to upload, even for Chinese users. In HydrogenOS, our operating system for the China market, the identified folder exists in order to filter out what data not to upload....

The first CE, not the second Nord The important thing to remember about the OnePlus CE 5G (CE stands for “core edition”) is that it is NOT an upgrade of the OnePlus Nord. You can read about that in detail here but to sum it up, while the Nord was bringing a largely premium experience to a lower price point, the Nord CE 5G is more of an unabashed out and out mid-segment player....

Starting with the design, first, the OnePlus Watch features a circular dial that comes in at 46mm. It is made out of stainless steel and has a glossy pattern on the display bezel.

With NavIC, India became only the fifth country in the world to have its own GPS system. NavIC consists of 7 GPS satellites with plans to expand that to 11 in the future. It has two levels of service – the “standard positioning service”, which will be open for civilian use, and a “restricted service” (an encrypted one) for authorized users (including the military). With the collaboration, the idea is to accelerate the adoption of NavIC and enhance the geolocation capabilities in the fields of mobile, the automotive industry, and the Internet of Things (IoT)....

Realme Narzo 10 Design and Display In terms of design, the Narzo 10 appears to follow the same design language as the Realme 6i — an affordable take on the Realme 6 — which comes with a plastic back with gradient finish and a unique painting pattern with vertical lines. Towards the front, there is a 6.5-inch HD+ mini-drop display with a 20:9 aspect ratio and Corning’s Gorilla Glass 3+ protection on top....

If you care to watch the video analysis, here it is. If not, jump below to read it out. The Redmi 1S comes with a Quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor from Qualcomm clocked at 1.6GHz, along with Adreno 305 GPU and 1GB of RAM. This is very similar to the Motorola Moto G, which has the same processor, but under-clocked at 1.5GHz. As we found out in our Moto G Review, the phone fared pretty well when it came to gaming performance....

Redmi A1: It’s got the look…of a more expensive smartphone Whatever corners Xiaomi might have had to cut to make the Redmi A1 affordable, the design was definitely not one of them. The Redmi A1 does not look like a Rs 6,499 smartphone. Yes, it has very 2018-level bezels around the display on its front and a water drop notch as well, and its sides and back are plastic. But even then, the phone cuts a very pleasant figure....

Redmi Note 9 Pro: Design and Display In terms of design, the Note 9 Pro features an Aura Balance design that incorporates an all-glass approach. The phone comes with splash-proof P2i coating and also offers Corning’s Gorilla Glass 5 protection on both the front and back.

Unlike before, the Exynos 9610 is now rumored to be a 10nm chipset. Furthermore, the Exynos 9610 will feature an octa-core processor consisting of four Cortex-A73 and four Cortex A53. The cores will be clocked up to 2.4GHz, and the GPU details have now been updated to Mali-G71 as opposed to the G72. The Exynos 9610 is most likely to be used in the mid-range Samsung devices and perhaps that’s one of the reasons why the company has not opted for Mongoose cores....

Samsung claims to be using an Infinity flex display in the construction of the Super AMOLED curved panel used on the foldable smartphone which according to them required the use of a special type of foldable adhesive which would hold all the layers of the display intact despite folding and unfolding the device multiple times. The way the mechanism works is that there is a primary display on the front like a regular smartphone which is quite regularly sized as per smartphone standards, but the magic happens when you unfold the book-like structure which reveals a huge 7....

Off late, Samsung has slowly moves it focus primarily from flagship smartphones to budget and mid-range devices. The move was especially needed for withstanding to competitions the brand was facing from Chinese counterparts in developing markets like India. Thus, the Korean electronics firm started with the J series of devices, which was subsequently followed by the introduction of the On series. Now, the recently launched Samsung On Nxt sits at the top of the On lineup from the Korean firm....

For, with these two devices, Samsung has moved the foldable phone a step closer to being a full-fledged productivity device rather than just technological quirks. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 is similar to the previous Fold devices – it’s a phone that folds out and becomes a tablet. And yet, it is different. Different enough for us to call it perhaps the most functional foldable phone ever. And this is not based on a few weeks with a review unit – we have been using the Galaxy Z Fold 3 for a few months now and have seen nothing to change our opinion....

1. iPhone (2007) – “We call it the iPhone” All right, this one HAD to be there. The very first iPhone was a design wonder because it simply was the first time someone had fit a large touchscreen (hey, 3.5 inches was massive in 2007!) into a relatively compact form factor. What’s more, it was the first time a large touchscreen phone had been made which did not need a stylus – it actually would NOT work with the styluses – and the interface was dead cool too....

The Finney will be just like any other current day flagship in terms of the specifications. It can rival the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S9, LG G7 ThinQ and even the upcoming OnePlus 6 in terms of sheer power. The credits for the same goes to the Snapdragon 845 powered internals of the Finney. The most striking difference between a standard flagship and the Finney lies in its Blockchain powered genetics....

Sodar is a Chrome extension. It runs within the Chrome browser and according to Google, it uses “WebXR to help visualize 2m social distancing guidelines in your environment.” In simple English, it means that it uses augmented reality to show two meters of distance around you. It is not meant for measuring distances or anything – it is just about showing two meters around you. — Experiments with Google (@ExpWithGoogle) May 28, 2020 Using Sodar is very easy....

Sony Xperia 5 Design The Xperia 5 features a sleek-and-compact body design that comes in at 68mm wide, and a variety of color options: Blue, Red, Black, and Grey. It has a Gorilla Glass 6 protection on the front and the back and a metal frame around the body to offer protection against drops and scratches. The company says that despite offering a 21:9 CinemaWide display a lot of features from the Xperia 1, the phone still manages to be 14 grams lighter than Xperia 1, making it pocket-friendly....

There are countless solutions that the modern world puts at your disposal for taking notes, and today we want to talk about one that’s very ingenious – Speechnotes. If you have already opened the website, then you will soon understand how to use it. It works right inside your browser and, well, just as the name suggests it, lets you take voice notes by speaking directly into the microphone. I’ve been playing around with it for the past half hour and I can say that I quite enjoy its functionality....

Well, Super Mario Run is now available on the iTunes App Store. It is a free download (there is a single in-app purchase of USD 9.99 if you want to unlock all the six worlds in the game) and at 205 MB, is slightly on the heavy side, but hardly overly so. The story is classic – the mustachioed and overall donning Mario has to run and jump on his way to rescue Princess Peaches from the evil Bowser in a particular flavor of fairyland....
