Snapchat Pixy coming as a new photography assistant

Snapchat is already fun with its AR filters. It also has various social-media gear in the market. Now, it has come with another fun accessory to add a little more sparkle to pictures. Snapchat is launching Pixy: a little drone that follows you about and snaps images of you. Meet the Pixy, Snap’s own drone that can act like your own digital photographer for $250 (about Rs 19,153). The drone was unveiled at Snap’s Snap Summit, where the firm also made a slew of other announcements centred on augmented reality shopping, among other things. “We’re introducing Pixy, your friendly flying camera. It’s a pocket-sized, free-flying sidekick that’s a fit for adventures big and small,” Snapchat said in a press note. Like most other drones, the Pixy comes with four pre-programmed flying patterns and is not operated by any other device. Instead, users may make the Pixy float, orbit, or follow you by pressing a button. The drone returns to you at the conclusion of a flight and sits on your hand.

Xiaomi Pad 5 launched with Snapdragon 860 chipset

Xiaomi has released the Pad 5 to challenge Apple’s dominance in the personal tablet market. Apple has dominated the tablet industry with different iterations of the iPad for years, and with good reason. No other tablet has been able to get into the specialized market that Apple has created. In comparison to Apple’s iPad, Android tablets have traditionally performed badly. Samsung and Lenovo are the only two companies that have a significant presence in the industry. When it comes to tablets, it’s clear that customers favour Apple. Xiaomi’s most recent tablet was introduced roughly three years ago. The Snapdragon 860 chipset is at the heart of the smartphone, which has 6GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage in all models. The device is powered by an 8,720 mAh battery that can charge at up to 22.5W. Xiaomi’s MIUI Global 12.5.2 runs on Android 11 on the Pad 5. The tablet was created with content consumption in mind, which is why it features a 16:10 aspect ratio. The Pad 5 includes a quad-speaker setup tuned by Harmon Kardon to make it more user-friendly for content consumption.
