There is nothing permanent in this mortal world- neither living nor non-living things. Change is the only constant thing that happens every once in a while. Right from living people to nature, we all undergo changes on a regular basis.

However if there is any field whose changes interest and benefit mankind the most, it is the field of technology and science that piques many an individual’s interest in more ways than one.

There was a time when we had wired telephones to speak to people sitting hundreds of miles away and now, come 2022, we have smartphones galore of different hues and varieties from reputed brands.

The Event

Now we are in the 5G era that will usher in the time when ‘New India’ will become well known all over the globe because ‘Digital India’ has already become a global phenomenon ever since it was pioneered by PM Narendra Modi a couple of years back.

Best Premium Smartwatches That You Can Buy In 2022

The best smartwatches are the ones that are a combination of both watches and fitness trackers. They combine the best elements of these worlds and present them to you in a stylish and portable form. Smartwatches have advanced over the past few years, offering a variety of watch faces and bands in addition to tracking your important statistics.

If you’re wondering what other novel and cutting-edge features, besides the ability to track your steps/workouts, sleep monitoring, SPO2 tracker, etc., one can expect in a smartwatch.

You can easily find watches that can help you take and receive calls, have GPS, an ECG, and many other fancy yet practical features. The majority of smartwatches have these essential features, but only the priciest models from top brands have them.

Smartwatches can be broadly categorised according to their operating system, fitness tracking capabilities, price, specifications, etc. When buying a smartwatch, you should consider various factors, such as battery life, durability, and health features.

When we mention ‘premium smartwatch’, the first brand that comes to mind is Apple or Samsung. However, there are other brands too. Let’s look at the top premium smartwatches that are currently available in India.

Huawei Watch 3

Huawei Watch 3 has introduced its own HarmonyOS, which gives a powerful performance.

The Watch 3 comes in an array of finishes and can be paired with any 22mm strap, while a rich sensor setup means it’s great for tracking activity and sleep, with impressive levels of insight from the companion Huawei Health app.

Huawei’s Watch 3 is one of the few high-end smartwatches that supports both Android and iPhone. Unlike Apple and Samsung, it does not charge extra for eSIM functionality. It gives a stylish look and provides a rich user experience.

Oppo watch

Oppo Watch is available in two sizes, 41mm and 46mm. Both models have an extensive feature set, but the larger 46mm model takes the lead with its upgraded Apple Watch-inspired aesthetics and optional cellular functionality.

Despite the operating system’s shortcomings, expect excellent performance (thanks to the smart processor pairing and plenty of RAM), swim-proofing, and one of the best Wear OS 2 experiences available.

The only drawback is that the heart rate sensor was a little more accurate during workouts.

Mobvoi’s TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra

The TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra from Mobvoi is one of the most durable smartwatches we’ve seen from the brand; it incorporates the Pro line’s distinctive dual-display technology into a tough form factor, runs Wear OS 2, and has respectable battery life.

It has a low battery life when compared to dedicated premium outdoor watches like Polar’s Grit X Pro or those with more basic hardware, like Amazfit. However, there are currently very few smartwatches that are this durable and functional in the market.

The Pro 3 Ultra has a full-colour AMOLED display and a monochromatic FSTN display that, when used in Essential Mode, can extend battery life from 3 to 45 days. It also brags about having an updated Wear OS 3.

Amazfit GTR 3 Pro

Amazfit GTR 3 Pro has a big, circular display, with two buttons on one side. It supports a higher refresh rate and has a sharp display, resulting in better user interaction. It measures 1.45 inches and has a maximum brightness of 1000 nits and a pixel density of 331ppi.

The new Zepp OS includes an improved BioSensor that even functions while swimming. It has 150 watch faces (some of which are animated) and supports 150 trackable activities. Support for voice assistants is also included, either through an offline alternative or Alexa when the watch has an internet connection.

The GTR 3 Pro’s battery life is outstanding despite its sizable, constantly-on display, animated watch faces, Bluetooth, GPS, and ability to track activity and sleep. It has a 450 mAh battery, which means that even with heavy use, a user can go six days (12 days with “regular” use) without needing to recharge.

Fitbit Sense

The Fitbit Sense, the company’s top model, has many health-related features.

Since it gives you so many warning signs, it can also be called the hypochondriac’s smartwatch. It will assist in identifying critical health issues that you will have the opportunity to address. It will also provide you with tools for stress management and other mental health issues.

If you can afford the high price, the Sense is the Fitbit with everything you need to comprehensively track your physical and mental health.

Apple watch SE

Apple watch SE is the best and cheapest companion to your Apple iPhone. It includes most of the Watch 6’s features and is half the price of the premium model. The Apple Watch SE has rounded aluminium edges, curved edges, and a side-mounted Digital Crown.

Although it has a bright OLED screen, it does not have an always-on display. There is a lot of ecosystem integration with Apple products and services. If you have an Apple Music subscription, a pair of Airpods, and you’re going for a run, then you can leave the house without your phone and listen to a tonne of music with the help of this watch.

Simply bringing your watch up to your lips will activate Siri, and it generally works fairly well. But the Watch’s battery life is simply too short of making the most of it.

The Apple Watch SE’s fitness features are probably the main factor in your decision to purchase this gadget. The GPS, 5 ATM water resistance, sleep tracking, and multiple sports tracking are the main features for which you can buy this product.

Fossil Gen 6

The Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch has a gorgeous design and a stainless-steel band. It runs on Wear OS and has many fitness tracking features, including GPS for distance tracking, a heart rate monitor, and a microphone for taking phone calls.

You can keep track of your fitness activities on an Android or iPhone thanks to the Google Fit integration. The stainless-steel band and circular design make it one of the most premier-looking smartwatches available.

OnePlus watch

The OnePlus Watch has a silicone band and a circular 1.39-inch AMOLED display. You can store up to 500 songs in the watch’s 4GB of internal storage, which is included.

Your heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, and sleep patterns are all tracked by the watch, which has over 110 workout modes. It is water- and dust-resistant and has an IP68 rating. A single charge of the watch can power it for up to 14 days.

Apple Watch Series 7

The Apple Watch Series 7 is one of the company’s most expensive models. It has the S6 SiP and an always-on retina display. It features an IP6X dust resistance rating and a crack-resistant display.

You can keep track of the calories you burn while swimming thanks to its WR50 water resistance. It includes an ECG support feature in addition to a heart rate sensor and blood oxygen monitor. You can also make calls and send messages without taking your phone out of your pocket. However, the timepiece is only compatible with iPhones.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is the ideal smartwatch for Android phone users.

It has a sleek and comfortable design with a modern look. In addition to being waterproof, it is made of durable armour aluminium, making it resistant to bumps and blows.

The most recent version of Samsung’s smartwatch also features a new “BioActive Sensor” that can monitor your blood pressure, ECG, heart rate, and more. You can also use it to estimate your body composition, like skeletal muscle, body water, BMI and fat percentage.

The only drawback is that the battery life, which is only 40 hours, is not the longest on this list. It also decreases significantly when you use GPS or exercise tracking features. Still, most people find it satisfactory.

PayTM Faces Heat as ED Raids Firms, Denies Links with Chinese Merchants

It looks like PayTM is finding itself in troubled waters as its parent company, One 97 Communication, has faced serious accusations of being linked with Chinese Loan Merchants and have therefore come under the radar of the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

One 97 Communication is being probed in connection with a Chinese Loan app and has vehemently denied having any association with the app or the merchants as the central agency froze the funds allegedly belonging to the group and, by extension, One 97.

It isn’t just PayTM whose premises has been raided but also other platforms like Cashfree and Razorpay as the ED strongly suspects these online payment entities of hiding unaccounted cash in their offices.

This raid has definitely caused a cloud of suspicion on PayTM and other platforms but the payment entity completely stands firm on its belief that it has no links with neither the merchants nor the amount frozen by the ED authorities.

PayTM has offered full cooperation to the authorities while the raids are in progress and the directive actions are also compiled by the entity. As of now, ED has unearthed funds worth Rs.17 crore that were kept in bank accounts that belonged to Chinese citizens and a few merchant IDs.

The raids were conducted under provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), 2002 as the ED has high hopes that they will find some more evidence and then decide on how to take their further plan of action.

The fact that we human beings have become so dependent on electronic devices has become way too obvious and there are so many of them out there without which human life will come to a standstill, or so it seems.

While smartphones are generally more discussed about, other devices tend to take a backseat like smartwatches and earphones despite both of them being equally important, albeit for different reasons, tools to possess.

We always have new earphone models that come out in the market on a regular basis from various reputed brands with Apple and Samsung being chief among others although other devices deserve to mentioned along.

Minecraft: Redstone Dust

There are so many video games out there that vie for the attention of gaming enthusiasts and most of them are successful in doing so. Today you can find many such games on different genres that it becomes difficult to choose the best of the lot.

Every individual has different tastes when it comes to genres and will accordingly be more partial to one over the others. Minecraft is a sandbox video game that has attained massive popularity in more than a decade of its launch.

Brief Up

What is different about this venture is that it has no destinations or goals that the protagonist has to travel because players have the complete freedom to make their own plans and strategies on how to play the game.

However, it does have an achievement system in the Java Edition of the venture along with trophies on the PlayStation edition. The players are transported to a 3D world with unending terrain from where they have to extract raw materials, machines, infrastructure, craft tools, and a few others.

Minecraft has entered the list of the greatest video games of all time apart from winning critical and commercial acclaim, not to mention the countless awards through which other games too are getting inspired by its plot point.

As the game involves precious stones and minerals, one of the most important that deserves to be mentioned is Redstone that is found around lava pools due to which players have to carry a water bucket while mining for it otherwise it can prove dangerous as the lava is boiling hot.

Finding Redstone

You need to have a knack to find Redstone as it keeps running out due to its massive utility so the following points are going to come in use when you want to find a Redstone and it is readily available in these places.

Mineshafts- You will find many treasure chests here that are likely to contain Redstone dust and they have a good chance of spawning 5-10 dust per chest, which is a big reason why mineshafts are such huge endless structures. A player needs to find a redstone between levels 0-15 in order to find them on the walls of mineshaft
Dungeons- Another secluded place that contains a decent amount of redstones but it is a difficult task to find it on their own and there’s a likelier chance to stumble upon it but once you do so, you will find 1-4 redstone dust
Village Temples- You will find more redstones here than in the dungeons as they are more or less cobblestone structures and have greater chances of spawning redstone dust in their chests
Stronghold- This is also a good place to find a good amount of redstones since it houses dozens of treasure chests but since it is a huge structure, they’re all placed in different places that the players have difficulty in locating on an immediate basis

Redstone Usage

The main use of Redstone is brewing and crafting along with redstone circuits that have to be placed on the ground to make redstone wire and also power its components, which is because redstone dust turns into a block of redstone wire when placed in the realm following which power is transmitted.

It is the Mundane potion that has to be brewed for which you need the necessary ingredients- Redstone dust and water bottle but if you need to increase the duration you will need things like Fire Resistance potion, Slowness potion, Regeneration potion, Strength potion, Swiftness potion, etc. to name a few.

Things like Clock, Compass, Block of Redstone, are for crafting for which the main ingredients are Redstone dust + Gold Ingot, Iron Ingot + Redstone Dust, and Redstone Dust, respectively.

India’s swift response to product-safety approvals to benefit Apple, Samsung

An industry group reportedly told Reuters on Friday that India intends to test various electronic device components simultaneously to hasten the approval of those devices’ safety. Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi, and other major manufacturers of smartphones are anticipated to base their launch plans on the new approach.

Currently, it takes 16 to 21 weeks to test and certify items like wireless earbuds and smartphones. The new approach can reduce five to eight weeks. The government may decide to test earbuds initially before deciding on other products.

The action is being taken as India works to eliminate the bottlenecks that businesses are experiencing. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is confident that the electronics hardware manufacturing sector will reach its government’s target of $300 billion in revenue by 2026.

“For industry, it is directly linked with ease-of-doing business; for consumers, this will result in faster access to the latest products,” the group, MAIT, said in its statement.

Its members include domestic and international businesses operating in India’s IT industries, electronics and telecom industries, such as companies like Apple, Samsung, and Xiaomi.

The Bureau of Indian Standards, which conducts the tests, “has agreed to a pilot project where some identified electronics hardware products shall be undergoing parallel testing” to reduce the amount of time needed, the group continued.

According to executives, the lengthy testing procedure in India can take up to 16 weeks for a new model of Apple AirPods because the charging case and its components must first obtain clearance before the earbuds are tested.

The entire process could take up to 21 weeks on average for a smartphone and its components.

According to a source with direct knowledge of the situation, the pilot decision was made after a meeting held behind closed doors on Wednesday between representatives of the Indian Information Technology Ministry, the BIS, the MAIT, and executives from companies like Apple and Samsung.

MAIT said that the government will likely decide on other products later, but earbuds will likely be the first devices to be tested more quickly.

According to Prabhu Ram, the director of the Industry Intelligence Group at CyberMedia Research, an organisation that provides consulting services to Indian technology companies, “Swifter, safety and quality clearances by the authorities will boost India’s competitiveness in the electronics industry.”

Mr. Ram, further said, “For Indian consumers, this move will significantly reduce the wait time to get their hands on the latest products.”

All electronic products manufactured in India, whether imported or locally, must pass BIS’s safety testing requirements.

The decision will benefit companies like Apple, Xiaomi and Samsung, which together control 46% of the Indian smartphone market, according to research firm Counterpoint’s findings. These brands sell the majority of the country’s handsets.

The market for wireless earbuds in India is currently led by the Indian company boAt, but data showed that Apple dominates the market for premium models.

The move will be advantageous for Apple, which will release its iPhone 14 series on September 7. Although it is difficult to predict by how much, insiders are anticipating a price increase for the most recent iPhone 14 series.

How would you introduce Elista to consumers unaware of the brand’s market presence?

Elista stands for cutting-edge technology that is now accessible to the masses. In terms of innovation and design, our products are always measured against only the top brands. At the same time, we understand the pulse of the markets and ensure that the prices are reasonable. We recently celebrated our second anniversary and are grateful for the support that we have garnered.

We sell over 32,000 units every month in India. We have an online presence on Flipkart, Amazon, Tata Cliq, and Payed, about 15,000 retail locations across India, and a channel network of 350+ distributors. We have established ourselves by successfully competing with a market-dominant industry leader with more than 25 years of experience.

Consumers have responded positively to our products, and our mission is to give back to society by creating jobs and establishing India as a global centre for innovative indigenous manufacturing.

Elista has a range of budget and premium products in different categories, but what, according to you is the target consumer segment of Elista as a brand?

The target consumer for Elista as a brand is the large middle class in India, desirous of having top-quality products with cutting-edge technology at affordable prices. The market is increasing, and the challenge for us is to match the aspirations of this class.

Tell us a bit about Elista’s home entertainment product category. Every day there are new technical innovations in the segment, how do you see this evolving in the future?

Following the pandemic, people’s watching habits have undergone a sea change. Today, the demand is for larger TVs so the whole family can enjoy a home theatre experience. The television technology landscape has undergone a major makeover in recent years. Dozens of technologies have emerged—from OLED to QLED, webOS to Android OS, 4K to 8K—complicating the decision to buy a TV.

At Elista, we offer a host of tech innovations, including 4K resolution for better visuals and a Bezel-less design that catches the eye. We have recently unveiled a slew of large-screen WebOS TVs that are feature packed. These TVs not just have a stunning design but also support HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG, AI-Enabled Voice Search.

To ensure that we offer an immersive viewing experience and minimal motion blur, our range of TVs comes with motion enhancement technologies like MEMC, TruMotion and Motion Flow XR.

We started our journey around two years ago with the launch of televisions which was soon followed by dishwashers. Today, we have a wide range of products in categories like consumer electronics, home appliances, IT, and mobile accessories.

We are happy to share that we have been able to bring a change in consumer behaviour by combining quality, innovation and affordability. For instance, before we entered the dishwasher category, it was considered a luxury item.
