Novena Is A Fully Open Source Laptop With Customizable Hardware

The bright minds behind this project are Andrew Huang and Sean Cross, who spent over a year working on the Novena laptop. Huang is widely credited as the man who broke open the original Xbox. Since the laptops and all the instructions are aimed at a small number of buyers, they aren’t exactly cheap. Just the Novena board will cost you $500 and ships November this year while a pledge of $1,995 to the Novena campaign at Crowd Supply will land you a laptop with an estimated shipment deadline in January, 2015....

Oneplus Nord Ce 2 5G Vs Xiaomi 11I Hypercharge 5G Face Off

Design: Trend vs Convention Most smartphones these days come with a similar design language, but that is far from the truth in the case of the Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge and the OnePlus Nord CE 2. Instead, the two phones adhere to today’s design trends when it comes to the front– both have tall, thin-bezel-ed displays with comparatively thicker chins below them, while a punch hole notch sits on the top housing the camera....

The intention is to deliver and ease the process of adding dual-cameras on products through a universal technology.

Qualcomm S New Mmwave Antennas Could Solve One Of The Biggest Hurdles Of Bringing 5G To Smartphones

You see, while mmWave, a 5G spectrum band, offers a significantly faster bandwidth than what we have today, it also has a much shorter range and its connection can be easily blocked by minor obstacles such as walls or even your hand. Qualcomm thinks its new QTM052 mmWave antenna modules are the answer to that exact conundrum. The component is essentially a tiny antenna array of the size of a coin that features four antennas which can automatically point the device towards the closest 5G tower....

Reliance Jio Claims Foul Over Airtel S Fastest 4G Network Claims

The defect in Ookla’s Android app has been displaying incorrect results whenever you run a speedtest on a Dual SIM handset. It only takes into account the network on which the calls have been assigned irrespective of the data settings. Hence, for instance, if you’ve configured Airtel for calls and Reliance Jio for data, it will show the network speeds of Airtel no matter on which SIM slot it has been inserted....

Samsung Galaxy F62 Review A Heavyweight In The Mid Segment

For, while the second entry in Samsung’s F series ticks a lot of the usual design and hardware boxes (read our first impressions to find out more), what actually gives the Samsung Galaxy F62 a clear edge over most of the competition is its Exynos 9825 processor. Now, this was the same processor that was used in the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 in late 2019 and did not exactly get rave reviews, mainly because many claimed its battery performance was nowhere near the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, which was the chip used in the US edition of the device....

Samsung Galaxy M31 First Impressions Galaxy M30S Plus 1

M30s in black- I’m mid-segment and I like it Merely a quick glance at the Galaxy M31 will give away which clan it belongs to. The smartphone has a very strong M30s essence to it. The front is dominated by the tall, drop notched display. It has comparatively thin (but definitely visible) bezels on three sides while the chin is slightly thicker. The back of the smartphone is the same, very-evidently-plastic, shiny material, only there is no color gradient like its predecessor....

Smartphone Sales For The First Time Will Drop To Single Digit Growth Gartner

Global smartphone shipments are estimated to reach 1.5 billion units, nearly a 7 percent increase from 2015. Moreover, the entire mobile phone market is predicted to stand at 1.9 billion units.

Snapdragon X55 5G Modem Smaller On Space And Faster In Performance

The X50 modem focussed mostly on the smartphones and claimed to offer maximum download speed of 5 gigabits, which is less than the newest offering from the company, which promises to provide as much as 7 gigabits of download speed. In addition to the speed, it also claims to enhance the connectivity among devices and also allow for devices of different categories to be connected together. That surely hints to the fact that we can see the new modem chipset not only on the upcoming 5G-enabled smartphones but also on the Internet of Things (IoT) devices that primarily require various devices to be connected together via the internet....
