OPPO ColorOS 12 wins four design awards at the Red Dot Award

OPPO has come a long way since it became a tech giant of repute and is rightfully considered the world’s leading smart-device brand and this is without considering the cut throat competition it continues to receive from rival tech companies.

It has bagged four Red Dot Brands & Communication Design Awards in 2022 for its pioneering designs in its ColorOS12 operating system, which is saying something considering the accolades it has achieved in the past.

OPPO ColorOS 12

The winning features include the OPPO SANS Fonts, O Relax app, OMOJI, and the Two-Finger Split Screen function. This has set a benchmark of sorts that OPPO has to measure up with some new things that it has in the pipeline. 

O Relax is what you can call OPPO’s digital well-being application that makes good use of audio to allow its users relax and unwind with soothing music tracks and ambient sounds of nature and its key feature – Sounds of the City – is inspired by various cities all around the world.

Users will get to experience high quality ambience sounds recorded from places around the globe, which included the likes of Reykjavik, Beijing, and Tokyo and easily covers a fast-paced vibe to the calming sound of different cities so it is safe to say Sounds of City captures unique and distinct sounds.

When you talk about beautiful features, we also have OMOJI from ColorOS 12, which has received undue support by OPPO’s industry-leading Face Capture algorithm, another renowned security feature that deserves a mention.

OPPO ColorOS 12

It comes with a high-precision model of virtual expressions based on 52 core human facial expressions with 200+ stylistic elements. This feature enables users to customize emojis for themselves that reflect their unique style and send messages with a personal touch.

ColorOS 12 has alao introduced the new “Two-Finger Split Screen” function, a feature that is tailored to the 7.1-inch large screen of OPPO’s first folding mobile phone, which is called Find N and it optimizes the user experience by providing relevant efficiency and flexibility required for multitasking.

It allows users to easily swipe down the middle of the foldable screen with two fingers, splitting the screen display into two to help with multitasking. Such design is aimed to be both intuitive and self-explanatory to users.

Then we add the OPPO SANS, which is a universal typeface designed by OPPO whose visual optimization ranges from the font’s structure to its glyphs that allows its overall shape to appear more concise and elegant.

You also have updates that present an upgraded sense of technology and strengthen the font’s legibility on various screen displays in different products that will allow users to know more about it.

Brief On Red Dot Design Award

The Red Dot Design Award is among the world’s most prestigious professional design competitions. The accolades are direct recognition of OPPO’s world-class design capabilities. In future, OPPO will continue delivering users with a more comprehensible and comfortable experience through ColorOS.

OPPO recently announced the date of the global online launch event for its latest mobile operating system, ColorOS 13.

It will be one of the first OEM operating systems based on Android 13. For more information about ColorOS 13, please join the ColorOS Official Launch Event on YouTube and Twitter at 7:00 PM GMT+8 on August 18th, 2022.

 

NASA gears up for Satellite Mission, SunRISE in Tow

NASA Satellite Mission

There are many space organizations in the world but NASA is head and shoulders above all, including ISRO, India’s main space agency and rightfully so since its American. It has many an accomplishment to its credit and is gearing up for a lot more.

The recent news report is that NASA is all set to launch its very first set of small satellites for a new mission dubbed ‘SunRISE’ that is ready to detect and track hazardous space weather events.

The scientists have shed a ton of blood, sweat and, of course, money, for this mission as they want to leave no stone unturned to make it a success where it has been reported that each satellite used in the Sunrise project will be used as an individual in a way that it acts to detect radio bursts that burst forth from heat waves that come from the Sun itself.

NASA Satellite Mission

Needless to say, this mission has a lot riding on its shoulders where the scientists have much, or rather, everything to lose where everything can go wrong with the tiniest of errors or miscalculations.

Brief On

Sun Radio Interferometer Space Experiment (Sunrise) has massive ambitions and this program proves it as it plans to launch the largest radio telescope that is equipped to detect and track down explosive space weather events.

The makers are speculating a 2024 launch where you have the SunRISE that will be a radio telescope in the literal sense launched directly into orbit in a bid where scientists will learn more about space weather events and research further on how it can be used as a major breakthrough.

Whether the breakthrough will be for the benefit of mankind or some other global agenda, it is a huge mission where many things can go wrong what with a powerful combination of six toaster-size satellites that will observe the Sun in such a way that have not been possible on the surface of the earth.

NASA Satellite Mission

The small satellites are called SmallSat that are well equipped with four telescoping antenna booms that extend to about ten feet to form an ‘X’ and will orbit the earth at about 36000km away and research about the virtual radio telescope.

The SmallSats will send out signals that will go straight to NASA’s Deep Space Network that scientists will use to create the radio telescope thereby enabling SunRISE to see the long wavelengths that are blocked by a small portion of the Earth’s upper atmosphere called ionosphere.

Snapchat plus Comes to India at an Affordable Price of Just Rs 49/ Month

0
Snapchat+

The subscription service claims to offer a number of exclusive features, such as the ability to pin someone as a best friend on the profile, changing the app icon, and a rewatch signal. Furthermore, the subscription service will incorporate the recently introduced Snapchat for Web, which allows users to interact with other users through video calls.

“India is a major market for Snapchat plus, and investments in making the app experience more like a local one which has been vital to our expansion in the region. We’re thrilled to be able to provide exclusive, experimental, and pre-release features to our Indian Snap chatter community, which is keen to try out our new products and features.” Snap Inc’s interim-market development head Lakshya Malu was quoted as saying by reports.

Snapchat + Features

Snapchat+ (Plus) Badge: A specific Star indication used to identify Snapchat users who are subscribers. This can be toggled on and off and is disabled by default.

Custom App Icons: The opportunity to alter the Snapchat App icon on the home screen and customise its appearance.

Rewatch Indicator: An indicator of how many people is rewatching your Stories (without being able to identify who is rewatching them) that can be found in My Story Management.

Best Friends Forever: A new way to commemorate friendship on Snapchat, as well as the opportunity to pin one buddy as your number one best friend.

Solar System: This is a unique Friendship Profile Badge.

Snapchat+

Snap Map’s Ghost Trails feature shows the overall direction of travel for where pals have recently relocated (if they have explicitly agreed to sharing their location). This is comparable to our existing “Map Moves” Snap Map feature, which appears when a buddy has recently travelled, and it was designed with safety and privacy in mind.

The “Story Rewatch Indicator,” which displays how many friends have watched Snaps that have been posted to My Story, Private Stories, or Shared Stories, is also available to premium users. In addition, a double-eye emoji will show next to stories that one or more friends have re-watched. Subscribers to Snapchat plus can also select from a variety of app icons for their phone’s home screen.

Also Read: How To Remix Snaps On Snapchat In A Few Simple Steps

On someone’s friendship profile, Snapchat plus subscribers will also see a ‘Best Friends’ or ‘Friends’ badge with a gold ring around it. A ‘Best Friends’ badge indicates that the two users are among each other’s eight closest friends, whereas a ‘Friends’ badge indicates that they are among the other person’s eight closest friends, but the other person is not one of theirs.

The badges will indicate how close the two buddies are when you tap on the badge. So, if the user’s friend is the sun and the user is the earth, they are each other’s third-closest friends on the platform.

How to get Snapchat Plus

  • Open your Snapchat profile and tap the settings icon in the top right corner of the screen.
  • Scroll all the way down to Snapchat Plus.
  • Tap Snapchat+ to see the available plans.
  • After you subscribe, a menu will display describing some of the capabilities that Snapchat+ provides.

What Is the Difference Between Snapchat Vs Snapchat Plus?

Snapchat+

Snap Inc., formerly known as Snapchat Inc., is an American company that developed the multimedia instant messaging software and service Snapchat. One of Snapchat’s key features is that images and messages are often only displayed for a short amount of time before they are no longer accessible to their users. The download is free and widely available.

Snapchat Plus is a paid premium version of the app that offers additional benefits to users. The new service from Snapchat, which costs a monthly charge and provides access to some premium features not available to regular app users, is aimed at so-called power users. Snap hopes that its new premium version will emerge as a major source of revenue in the future, even though it does not now consider it as such.

Snap Chat Plus Price and availability

Snapchat+, which provides users with exclusive access to new and experimental features such as alternative icons, profile badges, additional analytics, and a desktop version of the app, is available for $US3.99 per month in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (or local equivalent).

In India, however, Snapchat+ will be accessible for a starting fee of 49 rupees (about $US0.62).

That appears to be a significant savings, and according to reports, Snapchat Plus in India will provide access to all of the same features and tools as the standard offering.

OnePlus 10 Pro Gets Android 13-Based OxygenOS 13 Open Beta 1 Update: The new upgrade you should know about!

0
OnePlus 10 Pro

The firm said last week during the introduction of the OnePlus 10T that the OnePlus 10 Pro will be the first device to get the OxygenOS 13 upgrade based on Android 13. In a forum post today, OnePlus revealed that the OxygenOS 13 pre-stable release is now accessible for the OnePlus 10 Pro, only days after Samsung unveiled the One UI 5 Open beta program for the Galaxy S22 sequel.

EU users may need to wait a bit, unlike North American and Indian residents who may immediately install the open beta build.

OnePlus appears to have fully adopted the ColorOS design language when it comes to OxygenOS 13. The most recent OnePlus skin, as expected, adds a number of new features, including, among others, a new animation engine, seamless earphone connectivity, more AOD customization choices, enhanced Dolby audio effects, Kids Space, and fresh Bitmoji AOD animations, and gaming-specific Hyperboost GPA 4.0.

Here is the first OxygenOS 13 beta build!

Through an official community post, the company disclosed the availability of the first OxygenOS 13 Open Beta builds for the OnePlus 10 Pro. It has an Aquamorphic design and is based on Android 13. Additionally, it has come to light that just 10 Pro users in North America and India presently have access to the OOS 13 release. Due to some software variations, users in the EU will need to wait before testing the newest features.

Here’s a short peek at the home screen, notifications/quick settings panel, and settings app after we previously loaded the Android 13-based OxygenOS 13 beta on our device. As you can see, in sharp contrast to OnePlus’ statements from earlier this year, the software has entirely lost its own OxygenOS identity and has just ceded to the ColorOS design philosophy under Oppo. However, it doesn’t look that way. The business had previously said that it had listened to user comments and would keep several OxygenOS components and UI standards.

To view the whole changelog, visit the OnePlus official community page, which is linked below. You will also undoubtedly run into some software-breaking flaws and difficulties because it is a beta release. Therefore, we advise against installing this beta release on your primary vehicle.

OxygenOS 13 has the following features

OnePlus 10 Pro

OxygenOS 13 makes use of AI System Booster, which further improves the performance’s stability and smoothness. AI System Booster’s cutting-edge, intelligent memory management techniques enable you to suspend multiple programs simultaneously, allowing you to swiftly switch between them for a quicker, more seamless, and uninterrupted experience.

AODs (Always-on Displays)

Emphasize pertinent and contextual information without requiring you to turn on or unlock your smartphone. With a larger number of AODs included in OxygenOS 13, you have more customization options and may choose the information you wish to have quick access to.  The AODs in OxygenOS 13 provide effortless navigation while using other mobile apps like Bitmoji or Canvas to create masterpieces.

Toolbar Sidebar

You may use Sidebar Toolbox to make it simpler for you to use your device with just one hand. This useful feature offers quick access to all apps and allows you to choose which ones are highlighted there.

In-Game HyperBoost Engine

The HyperBoost Gaming Engine, which enables a number of features aimed at delivering a smoother and more reliable gaming experience when playing compatible titles, is supported by OxygenOS 13, enhancing the gaming capabilities of OnePlus devices. In order to give you the best chance of winning, these features enhance game performance by decreasing frame rate volatility and enhancing touch sensitivity.

Fast Pair

With Fast Pair, you can quickly and easily connect your device to compatible wireless earbuds and headphones, smart TVs, and other devices so you can spend more time enjoying content and less time navigating menus.

Audio Control

You may simply switch from one audio device to another with Audio Switch. There are no interruptions while switching between headphones, resulting in a seamless sound transfer.

2.0 Private Safe

OxygenOS 13 introduces an improved version of the Private Safe, which stores data, documents, and media files in a virtual safe where they are protected from access by other programs.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 5, Watch 5 Pro specifications and features

The Galaxy Watch 5 and Watch 5 Pro are part of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 series. The Armor Aluminium Vanilla Watch 5 is available in two sizes, 40mm and 44mm. The Watch 5 Pro, on the other hand, has a larger size of 45mm. Titanium is used in its construction. Samsung has recently switched to Sapphire crystal displays on its new smartwatches, which are said to be more resistant.

The Galaxy Watch 5 combo is powered by the Exynos W920 chipset, which is paired with 1.5GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. The battery in the Watch 5 (40mm) is 284mAh, whereas the battery in the Watch 5 (44mm) is 410mAh. The Watch 5 Pro has a substantial 590mAh battery life.

The smartwatches run WearOS 3.5 with Samsung’s One UI Watch 4.5 on top. Both models include a variety of sensors, such as an optical heart rate sensor, an electrical heart rate sensor, a temperature sensor, a bioelectrical impedance sensor, an accelerometer, a light sensor, a gyro sensor, a barometer, and a geomagnetic sensor.

The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro Specifications

The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro have 10mm audio drivers as well as a tweeter speaker for high tones that is 5.3mm in diameter. The Buds 2 Pro’s capability for 360-degree audio results in a studio-quality listening experience.

The Buds 2 Pro’s Active Noise Cancellation feature reduces ambient noise by 33dB. It can last up to 8 hours after being charged. The charging case contributes to an increase in charge time of up to 29 hours. Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity is supported by the Buds 2 Pro. It can be charged using both the USB Type-C port on the charging case and wireless charging.

The Buds 2 Pro feature 24-bit hi-fi audio playback, which is only available on Samsung devices running One UI 4.0 or higher. While it lets individuals switch between linked Samsung devices easily, it does not allow users to connect to two devices at the same time. For hi-fi wireless playback, it supports Samsung’s proprietary SSC HiFi codec.

Updates from the Previous Versions

The Galaxy Watch 5 initially doesn’t appear to differ significantly from the Watch 4 in terms of its appearance. Both have the same 40mm and 44mm sizes, but the new ones have technically larger screens, measuring 1.2 inches and 1.4 inches (up from 1.19 and 1.36 inches, respectively).

One noticeable difference this year is that the watches now use Sapphire Crystal glass, which Samsung believes makes the displays 60 percent more resistant to scratches than their predecessors.

The Galaxy Watch 5 appears to be a little monotonous in comparison to last year’s model. The most prominent difference this time is a new skin temperature sensor that will not be active at launch, while other upgrades, such as greater durability and curvature, are less visible. We can’t blame Samsung for a lacklustre generation of smartwatches, though, because the Galaxy Watch line is already probably the best Android wearable. After all, it’s difficult to constantly surprise the industry with new features.

Also Read: Samsung Galaxy Buds2 Pro Review

Additionally, the company changed the shape of the watch case’s underside to enhance the surface area that would come into touch with your wrist. This should result in more consistent and precise biometric readings from the sensors, even when you thrash your hands around.

The Watch 5, like previous versions of the Galaxy Watch, has a touch-sensitive bezel that you can drag your finger along to cycle between apps and notifications.

Xiaomi has come out with its new advanced foldable flagship smartphone on August 12, 2022 called Xiaomi MIX Fold 2 where it was launched at a new product launch event in Mainland China.

Xiaomi MIX Fold 2 is a massive technological leap in the ultra-slim foldable smartphone space that is just 5.4mm in size when unfolded but in addition, it also offers a consistent viewing experience on both its inner and outer displays.

It also delivers an authentic Leica imagery experience coupled with strong power efficiency through the newly added Snapdragon® 8+ Gen 1 mobile platform that hopes to create a huge benchmark in the coming years.

Xiaomi Mix Fold 2 is equipped with a self-developed Micro Waterdrop Hinge which features a smaller bending radius, thinner screen modules, customized mini rotating hinge, and utilized an integrated solder-free precision process to create a carbon fibre double-wing floating panel.

The problem is that the combination of these highly integrated components considerably reduced the number of parts to only 87 that also enabled a lighter and thinner hinge design than ever before.

In addition, both sides of the hinge use space stacking technology, and use large hidden spaces on both sides of the hinge for soft boards, achieving a 20% increase in space utilization and thereby offering the 5.4mm¹ flat design with balanced weight distribution.
