OnePlus 11

The smartphone market is becoming more and more competitive, and it appears that one of the market leaders has raised the stakes once again. The recent leaked images of the new OnePlus 11 showcase that the device will have a ceramic body, giving it a luxurious appearance in the user’s hands. The ceramic material on the rear surface will replace the plastic and glass as we have seen them in the previous models. It’s interesting to note that this will not be the first time that OnePlus will use ceramic material for their devices, as they have already released a limited edition ceramic version of the uber-successful OnePlus X back in 2015, which was sold exclusively in the Indian and European markets.

The device may have a metal frame sandwiched between the ceramic back and the display in addition to having a luxury design and good performance, according to the Chinese Tipper Digital Chat Station. Keep in mind that the tipper referred to the phone in the leaked photographs as the OnePlus 11, not the OnePlus Pro, which the company produces each year with the standard model.

The tipper further added that the phone will come with as much RAM as 16GB. Additionally, UFS 4.0 storage, offering extremely high transfer speeds, can also be one of the specifications provided by OnePlus. The device will grab a 2K display with a QHD+ resolution of 3,216 x 1,440 the device is also rumoured to have a 6.7-inch AMOLED display on the front that supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and has a QHD+ resolution. This would be a first for a vanilla model from OnePlus that has a QHD+ resolution.

The device may include a 5000mAh battery with 100W fast charging capabilities and run OxygenOS, which is most likely based on Android 13. The 32 MP front camera will be accompanied by a 50 MP primary camera and a 48 MP ultra-wide camera on the back.

It is a given that the recently released Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset will be used in the device’s processor. OnePlus has stated that its upcoming flagship will be the first to include the aforementioned SoC at its core. The new Qualcomm product claims a 35 percent faster CPU, a 25 percent quicker GPU, and an up to 435 percent improvement in AI.

As Metaverse Plummets, WhatsApp and Messenger Looked Up to for Sale Growth

Highlights

  • Metaverse has flopped miserably due to which there is chaos
  • Mark Zuckerberg now has high hopes on WhatsApp and Messenger for Sale Growth
  • Investors are extremely disappointed at Metaverse’s abysmal performance and want a better alternative to put their hard earned money on

In Brief

It seems that Meta is going through a rough phase these days due to a massive drop in Metaverse sales that has plunged investors into a pall of gloom from which they are not able to come out.

It could be that they had pinned all their hopes and money on such an ambitious project given that Metaverse is a way to study the branch of alternate reality and they were perhaps hoping that it will prove to be useful in the future.

As if things were not bad enough, there was a mass layoff a couple of weeks back that affected nearly 11,000 employees big time and the failure of Metaverse has indeed hit investors where it has hurt them the most as most of the invested dough has gone down the drain.

Even Zuckerberg has acknowledged it as a huge blow to the company as he has lost a small fortune, which is why he is now looking up to WhatsApp and Messenger to recover lost ground as he is hopeful that sales will boost exponentially because both are two of the most prominent messaging platforms in existence.

Metaverse

However, it is abundantly clear that Zuckerberg has to tread his steps carefully as even a slight miscalculation can cause disaster but as of now, it is not yet clear as to what exactly his plans are regarding WhatsApp and Messenger.

It seems that the company has decided to add new ads in the messenger application, which can later be used as Status, although there are many speculations that it will be a subscription plan.

Telegram already has a premium tier where subscribers get many advantages and perks, which is why Meta may try out something similar so that its fortunes soar up once again like adding new tools to the groups, work out business advantages, along with many other perks.

WhatsApp is the most popular messaging platform in the world with the maximum followers from Brazil and India, which has moved on from being a mere platform for sending/receiving messages to something much bigger, which is why Meta is keen on expanding its investments in the app.

Whatever the situation maybe, Meta has many cards up its sleeve that it will utilize at the right time so that the company comes back on the right track for which it plans to use WhatsApp and Messenger as the Aces.

POCO C50

Highlights

  • POCO C50 launching in India later this month.
  • The handset will be a budget offering that might be priced under Rs.10,000.
  • POCO C50 is claimed to deliver stellar camera performance, an immersive multimedia experience, long battery life, and a sleek design.

In Brief

It goes without saying that 2022 has been one of the best years when it comes to the best devices and gadgets because almost all the big tech brands have rolled out excellent models this year and there are still some weeks to go therefore, one can expect some more devices in the pipeline soon.

In fact there is one coming up by the end of November itself called Poco C50 as the brand has officially confirmed that the handset will be out in India very soon and it will be the latest C-series model that everyone is eagerly looking forward to.

Poco C50

What is interesting is that the makers are sure that it will break the budget segment and since Poco’s last two models, Poco C3 and Poco C31, have registered outstanding sales, one can expect Poco C50 to go the same route as well.

There are barely a few days to go for November 2022 to end so one can expect Poco to announce an actual date for the launch of their latest flagship model but one thing’s for confirmed that it will cost under Rs.10,000 as this is a budget offering in the C-series model.

Astonishingly, there have been no significant leaks of Poco C50 anywhere be it its design, features, specifications, cost, or anything for that matter, which has left many users confused as they expected to gain some knowledge about its specifics at least given that the launch is mere days away.

However, one thing’s for sure that there will surely be teasers coming up online because the makers will definitely want to surprise their loyal users and don’t want them to keep guessing and develop doubts in their mind because sometimes users can become a little fickle minded and immediately shift their tastes to another brand for innocuous reasons.

Samsung will use an overclocked GPU with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor

Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor

After Samsung mysteriously disappeared from qualcomm’s official partners list. Now, it has been reported that Samsung will use a special version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 with a higher-clocked CPU. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 standard model (SM8550-AB) has an Adreno 740 GPU clocked at 680MHz, a Cortex-X3 prime CPU core running at 3.19GHz, four mid CPU cores running at 2.8GHz, and three power-efficient Cortex-A510 CPU cores. In contrast, it appears that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor (SM8550-AC) that will power the Galaxy S23 has a primary CPU core clocked at 3.36GHz and a GPU clocked at 719MHz.

According to a few new leaks, Samsung appears to want to secure the higher clock rates of the Snapdragon 8 gen 2 chip for its Galaxy S23 series devices. Some early geekbench results have shown that the Galaxy S23, S23 Plus, and S23 Ultra will have the Snapdragon 810 with a prime performance core clocked at 3.36 GHz.

It’s unclear whether the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip will carry that name or a different one. However, it appears like Qualcomm and TSMC have provided sufficient leeway for a respectable overclock. The 8 Gen 2 CPU is 35% quicker than its 8 Gen 1 predecessor, while the GPU is 25% faster, according to Qualcomm-approved statistics. This new interpretation of the chip should be quick given the overclock for both. Although, it is too early to conclude any significance from standard results.

It is being said that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is 35% quicker on the CPU and 25% faster on the GPU than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. The fact that Qualcomm has concentrated on increasing the power efficiency of its most recent flagship chipset is more noteworthy, as its chips from the previous two generations tended to overheat and choke under prolonged operation.

Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor

It’s unclear if the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 2 name will apply to this processor, which is intended for the Galaxy S23 series. However, it appears that Qualcomm and TSMC were able to find adequate space for a decent overclock.

Every so often, Qualcomm has launched “AC” versions that have faster clock speeds than the base processor. For instance, the Snapdragon 855’s model number is SM8150; the 855+, which increased the main core’s speed from 2.84GHz to 2.96GHz, is labelled as SM8150-AC. The 8 Gen 2 that was unveiled this week is the SM8550-AB so this version should be the SM8550-AC

This 8 Gen 2 chipset will be seen in many more forthcoming phones than simply the Samsung flagships. Additionally, some of them have provided benchmarks. Only time will tell how useful will the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 be and how it can crush the competition.
