Huawei has been recovering from the pandemic faster than even industry experts expected. With an estimated 8.6 million units of shipment in the third quarter of 2022, the Chinese telecommunication equipment company has registered an increase of 48.3% year-on-year. The brand is supposed to return to the market with its Huawei Mate 50 series and if some media reports are to be believed, the Huawei P60 series in 2023.

The Huawei P60 series comeback, as per certain reports, has already been finalised for an early 2023 launch with proper launch preparations and marketing plans in place. Reports also suggest that the Huawei P60 series comeback will also mark the launch of Harmony OS 3.1.

The reports of the Huawei HarmonyOS 3.1 launch have been doing rounds in online communities for quite some now. It was first announced during the Huawei Developer Conference 2022.

However, after the initial announcement, only the developer beta version was launched last year. Huawei has, however, stated that the proper public launch will be scheduled for early 2023 with some tech bloggers online suggesting a January 2023 launch.

There have also been certain image leaks recently that suggest some noticeable design changes in the new generation smartphones. A leaked image of the protective case design for Huawei’s P60 series in the last week of December 2022 suggests a very unique three-camera layout.

It appears Huawei phones are going with different camera sensor placements as compared to the previous generation design such as the Huawei P50 series.

Referring to the leaked images of the protective case, many tech bloggers pointed out that the new design will have a significant positive impact on the camera capacity.

With the code name “Mona Lisa,” the Huawei P60 series is rumoured to sport a flagship processor, main camera upgrades to a 64MP sensor, and Huawei’s own XMAGE image among other features.

The main camera has also been anticipated to be one of the most surprising features of the Huawei P60 series with some exciting details for an enhanced smartphone photography experience. It is being speculated that the smartphones will not support 5G connectivity, although users can hope to get satellite communication.

Google Maps hacks: Steps for Blurring House in Street View

0
Google Maps Hacks

Google recently launched a new feature called Street View to Google Maps in India through which users can blur their house and see live imagery from the place they’re searching for, which is quite unique to imagine.

During its official launch, Street View was available in just 10 cities of India, including Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Chennai, Pune, Hyderabad, among others, which has been quite well received by most users.

Google Needed 11 Years to Launch a Major Google Maps Feature in This Large Market

Highlights

  • Google brought Google Maps to India earlier this year.
  • Street View gives users a real-time view of a place.
  • Street View also gives users a 360-degree view of a place.

Google Maps India Gets Street View Feature

Google had announced a new feature for Google Maps in India in early 2022 called Street View through which users will be able to see live imagery right from the place they’re searching for and decipher whether a place is too crowded at the time they want to visit, along with the potential parking spots to park their vehicles.

Initially, during its launch, Street View was available in only 10 Indian cities like Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Nashik, Amritsar, Ahmednagar, and Vadodara.

Google has made plans to slowly bring out the features in other cities of the country as well, which is an extremely useful feature for people for keeping a track of locations and learning about new ones every now and then.

What is unique about Street View is that it doesn’t just show maps but also gives a 360-degree real time account of the place they’re at or intend to visit, which implies that users can get live imagery through which they can learn whether their intended place of visit is crowded or not.

However, this feature is not without limitations, as it not only shows the particular locality or area where the user is at, but also all houses, including the users’ house to other users, which is a glaring security lapse that needs to be rectified.

It can provide thieves and criminals understand the location of cameras and give an inside view of the security measures around the house during various times of the day, while other users can get an accidental glimpse of the inside of your bedroom.

Luckily for users, there is a feature in Google Maps through which specific images it showcases can be blurred in Street View permanently, although there is an added caveat here that users cannot blur just anything and everything they want to as they can simply send a request to Google, which decides whether it is valid or not, following which it will blur the highlighted area in Street View.

How to Find Your Current Location in Google Maps

Steps for Blurring Your House in Street View

  • Step 1

First step is to open Google Maps on your mobile/PC.

Rockstar Games Reveals More Information on GTA 6

It is no secret that Grand Theft Auto is arguably the most popular open-world video game franchise in the world that got the entire youth hooked right from its first instalment that came out in 1997 and since then, the franchise has spanned five seasons and many incarnations.GTA 6 Release Date

Rockstar Games, the publisher, has also announced its sixth season whose launch date might be revealed by the end of 2023, while there are strong rumours that the new season will officially launch around mid-2024.

It was announced by the makers in 2022 itself that the work for the sixth instalment had begun in full measure, although the game publisher refused to divulge any further on the matter, except for releasing a statement where it was announced that the game development files had leaked online.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3: 3NM Chip For 2024

0
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) is producing most of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipsets with the promising 3 nanometer technology that will prove to be a gamechanger in the market.

At the moment, the much awaited Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC chipsets for smartphones will be launched around early to mid-2023 for which many users are excited to try out the new chip model that will be a prominent one among Samsung‘s flagships.

Motorola Razr 3 specs update: Will come packed with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset

Highlights

  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will begin production by the end of 2023, following the launch of Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipsets.
  • The 3 nanometer technology chipset is created by TSMC for which Samsung has a lot of hopes.
  • However the 3nm production from Samsung‘s end would be only 10-20% due to which Qualcomm can employ other methods of production as a supplement to chip inventories.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Chipset to Launch in 2024

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC is an awaited chipset in 2023 that will come equipped with different Samsung flagship models, while the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset is being worked upon by TSMC with the help of the promising 3 nanometer technology for which Samsung is doing its best.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

It goes without saying that Qualcomm teams are working extremely hard on the follow-up of the chipsets as recent reports have confirmed that Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 will begin production by the end of 2023.

As TSMC has been given the responsibility for the future manufacturing of the chip, the company’s new method of production in 3 nanometer would succeed 80% of the time, while the iPhone 15 chip too will be using the same method for manufacturing.

TSMC stands to gain in this regard as it will be allowed to create both chipsets without having to put a cap on inventories. It was Samsung that first declared the arrival of 3nm manufacturing technology in July 2022 and gained an edge over TSMS by making a statement.

However, it needs to be kept in mind that Samsung‘s contribution in the production of 3nm is only around 10-20%, due to which it is very likely for Qualcomm to employ this production method as a supplement to chip inventories.

TSMC is the only manufacturer in the market that has the capacity to provide Apple, Nvidia, Qualcomm, AMD with most of its processors from the newer generation because there is no opposition from Samsung and other competitors.

TSMS also has the advantage of setting prices as it sees fit due to the technologies required for production being of cutting-edge quality are extremely costly to produce.

Google Chrome Will Block All Suspicious Downloads

0
Google Chrome

Google Chrome is working on a new feature that can block suspicious HTTP downloads that are prevalent everywhere due to which a solution has been in discussions for a long time and may arrive with Chrome 111.

There are many HTTP websites that are unsecure for use that Google has to deal with but currently the secure websites have been blocked from using these unsecure platforms because there are plans to encourage browsing in a safe and secure manner.

Add Hues To Your Google Chrome Browser’s Tab

Highlights

  • Google Chrome currently flags HTTP websites as “Not Secure”.
  • Chrome currently blocks secure websites from using insecure web forms.
  • The browser also uses an “Always use secure connections” toggle.

Google Chrome Plans to Block Fake HTTP Downloads

Google Chrome is the most reliable and, therefore, the most used search engine we have today where people simply have to type the keywords they want to search and press ‘Enter’, following which many solutions pop up in the form of articles and blogs.

Google Chrome

As of late, there have been numerous HTTP downloads that are deemed dangerous due to which Google Chrome is working on this new development where user data will be protected from such fake HTTP downloads.

Most of the secure websites are using HTTPS encryption but Chrome is firm on blocking all HTTP downloads so that users can browse in a safe and secure manner, while currently, the browser has only a handful of security features where you have mixed elements, along with an “Always use secure connections” toggle in the security settings.

If recent reports are anything to go by, there was a new code change spotted online with a feature that warns users regarding insecure downloads from sites via HTTP, while the browser comes with a ‘Not Secure’ warning for older websites that are HTTP-encrypted in the address bar.

The browser will block all downloads that it deems unsafe even if the HTTP encrypted website redirects users to a server with an insecure HTTP for download so that the user is taken to another secure HTTPS connection but if the webpage is available only via HTTP encryption, all the downloads from the site will be blocked by Chrome.

Google Chrome plans to bring this new update with Chrome 111 that comes out in a few months in March 2023 where it will soon undergo testing to make sure that it will be safe for use once it is launched, while Chrome could bring out more information about it very soon.

iPhone in 2023: iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Ultra, iPhone SE 4, iOS 17

0
iPhone 15

Apple will soon be launching the iPhone 15 series in 2023 that comprises of iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Ultra, iPhone SE 4, iOS 17. The company’s smartphones remain the biggest portion of its phenomenal business where they account for more than half of tech giant’s sales at $394.3 billion in the 2022 fiscal year.

As usual, there are numerous rumours circulating around the upcoming series that is expected to come out during fall season, less than a year after the launch of iPhone 14 series.

Highlights

  • Apple iPhone 15 series will soon be out this year in 2023 that includes iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Ultra, iPhone SE 4, and iOS 17.
  • It is rumoured to come with a periscope-style telephoto lens, a titanium alloy body, and haptic buttons.
  • The star of the entire series is the iPhone 15 where it is said to be far more upgraded than iPhone 14 released the previous year.

iPhone 15 Series Set to Come out in 2023

Apple’s iPhone 15 series is arguably the most awaited model of 2023 that is expected to come out during fall season, which will be enough for people to make their own speculations regarding the series.

iPhone 15

Whatever lies in store for Apple in 2023 might begin and end with the iPhone 15 series where even a spring iPhone has been strongly speculated. Prior to the release of iPhone 15, iPhone SE 4 seems to be in works as well that may hit the market first around early to mid-2023.

There are ample reasons for introducing a new device in the iPhone SE series as the current model has a similar design to iPhone 8, which includes the big bezels and other things, but the problem was that many people thought it looked out of synchronization with times in 2022.

Therefore, one can expect iPhone SE 4 to adapt the old iPhone 11 design, with minimum bezels and a notched display. When it comes to optical features, iPhone SE lacks a dedicated night mode even though its cameras have been well received.

Apple also runs the grave risk of getting shut out of the end of the market in case the iPhone SE spends the year on the bench as its rivals, Google and Samsung, will definitely produce new versions of their mid-range smartphones.

iOS 17 New in 2023

However, one thing can be said for certain that the iOS 17 will release around the same time as the iPhone 15 series, although the future prospects of the software update will be revealed much earlier as Apple has a habit of previewing the newer version of the iOS, which happens during the Worldwide Developers Conference, which will happen in June this year (2023).

Apple seeks to end its App store monopoly by opening up the iPhone to third-party app stores where reports are suggesting that Apple may have something in place for outside apps by the time iOS 17 is launched.

iPhone 15 Pro Port Faster than iPhone 15; Asserts Analysts

iPhone Vs iPhone 15 pro

iPhone 15 series comprises of three models viz. iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max, although it has been widely speculated that the latter will be a rebranded version of iPhone 15 Ultra, which means that it will be a 6.7-inch model.

iPhone 15 Latest Rumors

The Dynamic Island feature will find its way into the iPhone 15 model in 2023 but an added bonus from Apple for people intending to go for iPhone 15 Pro is the USB-Type C charging port where they can avail faster data transfer rates.

There have been many people pitting iPhone 15 with iPhone 15 Pro, which is similar to the iPhone 14 Vs iPhone 14 Pro where there were modest changes made in the base model in the 2022 model where iPhone 14 retained the A15 Bionic chip from iPhone 13 Pro.

iPhone 15 Pro is also rumoured to come with a periscope-style telephoto lens, haptic buttons, and a titanium alloy body so as to make the handset more durable but Apple needs to confirm its plans for September 2023 when the iPhone 15 is rumoured to release.

iPhone SE Pros & Cons

iPhone SE was launched in March 2022, which was nearly two years after the last iPhone SE update, while Apple introducing new SE models in the coming years could be unprecedented due to the device having a niche audience.

It is likely that Apple launched a new model two years after iPhone SE in 2020 because it wanted a 5G version of the model so that users can avail the new network as soon as possible.

Apple Foldable Phones- iPhone Flip

There are many surprises that Apple has planned for 2023, which might include the company’s first ever foldable smartphone that is speculated to be iPhone Flip that might adopt a clamshell-style design that opens up to reveal a folding screen in a similar manner to Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4.

However, many users have low expectations about the foldable model releasing anytime soon and expect it to be launched in 2024, which might well happen, although Apple needs to officially confirm it.

MacBooks 2023: MacBook Pro M2 Pro, 15-inch MacBook Air And More; Here’s What To Expect

0
MacBooks 2023

In recent years, Apple’s line of MacBooks has consistently been at the forefront of the laptop market, offering a range of options for consumers looking for a reliable and powerful device.

As we enter the year 2023, it’s worth taking a look at what the future holds for MacBooks in 2023 and what we can expect from the technology giant in the coming years. From rumors of new features and designs to potential updates to existing models, there is no shortage of speculation about what the next generation of MacBooks will bring.

In this article, we’ll explore some of the most exciting possibilities for MacBooks in 2023 and consider what the future holds for this popular line of laptops.

MacBook Model

One of the most anticipated developments in the MacBook world is the rumored release of a new model. According to various reports, Apple is working on a completely redesigned MacBook that could potentially be released in 2023.

While details are scarce, it’s believed that this new model will feature a completely overhauled design, with a thinner and lighter form factor and potentially even a foldable screen.

Some rumors have also suggested that the new MacBook will come with a more powerful processor and improved graphics capabilities, making it a great option for those looking for a high-performance laptop.

It’s worth noting that these are just rumors at this point, and it’s important to take them with a grain of salt until more concrete information becomes available. However, the prospect of a completely redesigned MacBook is certainly an exciting one and has many tech enthusiasts eagerly anticipating its potential release.

Macbook Pros

Apple is rumored to be introducing internal updates to the MacBook Pro 2023 by using M2 Pro and M2 Max chips. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the M2 Max chip will have a 12-core CPU, which is an improvement from the M1 Max’s 10-core CPU, and a 38-core GPU, which is an increase from the current maximum of 32 cores.

These updates are expected to enhance the performance and efficiency of the upgraded MacBook Pro models.

The M2 Max is also rumored to have support for up to 64GB of Unified Memory, while the M2 Pro is expected to be less powerful. Leaked Geekbench results for the M2 Max, found in a Mac labeled Macbook 14.6 inch suggest moderate performance improvements over the M1 Max.

The M2 Max earned single-core scores of 1853 and 1889, and multi-core scores of 13855 and 14586, while the M1 Max earned a single-core score of 1755 and a multi-core score of 12333.

MacBook Air 2023

According to Ross Young, the production of panels for a 15.5-inch MacBook Air is set to begin in the first quarter of 2023, leading him to believe that the device will be launched in the spring of that year.

There have been rumors circulating about the potential release of a new Macbook Air model in 2023, possibly called the Macbook Air Plus or Macbook Air Max. One of the most highly anticipated features of this new device is its expected improved battery life.

The Macbook Air Plus or Max is rumored to be equipped with an M2 chipset, similar to the 13-inch Macbook Air, but as a larger device it may also have more room for a bigger battery. This could result in a battery life of up to 23 hours, making it one of the longest-lasting Macbook models on the market.

The M2 chipset is known for being more energy-efficient than the M2 Pro and M2 Max, which could lead to a fanless design for the Macbook Air Plus or Max. This would be a welcome feature for many users, as the lack of a fan can result in a quieter, cooler, and more lightweight device.

In addition to its improved battery life and potential fanless design, the Macbook Air Plus or Max is expected to be more expensive than the current 13-inch Macbook Air due to its larger display.

It is speculated that the price difference could be anywhere from a hundred to two hundred dollars, depending on the specific features and specifications of the device.

Overall, the rumored release of the Macbook Air Plus or Max in 2023 has generated a lot of excitement among Macbook fans and technology enthusiasts.

If the rumors turn out to be true, this new device could be a game-changer in the world of laptops, offering improved battery life, a fanless design, and a larger display at a slightly higher price point. It will be interesting to see what Apple has in store for its Macbook Air line in the coming years.

 What Else To Expect From MacBook Next Year?

  • MacBook Pro in 2023 are coming with M2 Pro and M2 Max chipset.
  • MacBook Pro will have 12 core CPU
  • MacBook Pro will come with a 38 core GPU
  • MacBook Pro is expected to come with 64GB of Unified Memory
  • MacBook Pro M2 with Max earned single-core scores of 1853 and 1889, and multi-core scores of 13855 and 14586.
  • MacBook Pro M1 Max earned a single-core score of 1755 and a multi-core score of 12333.
  • MacBook Air is to come with a 15.5-inch display size.
  • MacBook Air will potentially be called Macbook Air Plus or Macbook Air Max in 2023.
  • MacBook Air will have a better battery life of up to 23 hours.
  • MacBook Air can be fanless and hence noise less.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the future looks bright for MacBooks in 2023, with a range of exciting updates and new models rumored to be on the horizon.

Whether it’s the prospect of a completely redesigned MacBook, the internal updates to the MacBook Pro, or the potential release of a new Macbook Air model with improved battery life, there is no shortage of speculation about what Apple has in store for its popular line of laptops.

While it’s important to take these rumors with a grain of salt until more concrete information becomes available, the potential for even more powerful and efficient MacBooks in the coming years is certainly an exciting prospect for tech enthusiasts.
