Nokia 6.2 Display The Nokia 6.2 has a 6.3-inch Full HD+ display with a water-drop style notch. While it’s pretty normal for a phone in this segment, the unique factor is the support for HDR content. The display on the Nokia 6.2 is HDR-enabled all the time, meaning irrespective of the content you are viewing, you are going to see it in HDR thanks to active SDR to HDR conversion....

For the past few weeks, the Nokia 8 has been constantly appearing online leaving almost nothing to the imagination. The press renders revealed in a VentureBeat report recently suggested a rather conventional design which Nokia’s existing budget smartphone lineup also comes with. The polycarbonate clamshell body doesn’t seem quite appealing at first glance, although it does allow the company to maintain a common language across all of its smartphones. In addition to that, there will be a fingerprint scanner housed under the front home key and two off-screen capacitive buttons beside it....

I know it sounds crazy, but American multinational food, snack and beverage corporation PepsiCo is apparently working on its own smartphone. PepsiCo has confirmed to Reuters that it will indeed launch a line of Pepsi smartphones and accessories in China: Thus, this means that Pepsi isn’t actually looking to get into the cutthroat market of phone making, but it is instead looking to release a smartphone solely for branding purposes....

Earlier: It came. It unfolded. It unfolded badly. It was criticized. It went back. It disappeared. It came back. It unfolded. It sold a million units. That’s the story of the Samsung Galaxy Fold. The device which many had predicted would kick start a foldable revolution got off to the worst start possible when it was first launched earlier this year. Reviewer after reviewer ripped into the device – some did so literally, peeling off the display itself by mistake because it seemed so flimsy....

Officially, the “small guy trying to beat the big one with speedy innovation” script remains unaltered with the OnePlus 5. However, it is difficult to ignore the fact that the device is also perhaps the first that sees OnePlus try to step away from its identity of David and actually be a bit more like, well, a mini-Goliath if you will, if not a full-fledged one. If that sounds harsh, consider the evidence....

“Master…” “Enter you may, young Padawan.” “We have got you the device, Master.” “Done well, you have. Ah, but so big the box is. Contain it must, a might device…” “Well, Master, if I may speak…” “Of course.” “It is the same mobile phone device they launched last month, Master.” “Launched it again, they have then?” “No, Master. They have added some flourishes from our universe to it.” “Indeed?” “Yes, master....

My first ‘high-end’ smartphone was the N95 8 GB. And this brought a more powerful 5.0-megapixel camera to the equation, and a slightly larger display (2.8 inches was a big deal in those days), but in most respects was rather similar to the N70, although it did bring a slide out keyboard into the equation. Oh and it was slimmer – just 21 mm thick. And incidentally, at that time, I was saving up to buy what many felt was the king of smartphones in the market – the Nokia E90 Communicator....

Plotagraph (or Plotagraph+ Photo Animator to use its full official name) is one such app. It is a photograph editing app that lets you add animation to your picture. And, for those thinking animations has something to do with animated characters or cartoons, let’s just clear the air by telling you: No. By animation, we mean that it allows you to move or bring movement to a static part of your picture....

Does the Poco X3 Pro belong here? That is an interesting question. Typically mid segment… Let us get some things clear: the Poco X3 Pro is a mid-segment phone in many regards. It has the sort of display (full HD+, 6.67-inch) that is a staple mid-segment, and even its 120 Hz refresh rate is no longer something you see only in premium segment devices. The 48-megapixel main rear camera and quad camera arrangement is something that we are seeing even in phones around Rs 12,000 – 108 MP seem to be the new IN thing in the Rs 15,000-20,000 range....

And this is the philosophy behind Prynt, a new startup that is currently seeking crowdfunding on Kickstarter. To put it as short as possible, Prynt is described as the world’s first instant camera case for smartphones. But before you get too excited, at the moment it will work only with the iPhone 5/5s/5c/6 and the Samsung Galaxy S4/S5. But the team behind Prynt says they are working to bring support to more smartphones....

Now the Redmi Note 9 Pro has come along. Looking all sharp, flashy in its own shiny way. And with one teeny-tiny detail that took us back in time, specifically back to 2008. Over a decade ago, Disney-Pixar had created a movie about this tiny but extremely adorable waste-collecting robot who falls in love with a more modern robot and the two take on a journey that ultimately decides the fate of mankind, WALL-E....

And STILL manages to stick out from what is rapidly becoming the Chinese Crowd, thanks to a mix of sheer muscle and nuance. Relatively compact in size We had mentioned in our first impressions of the Q Terra that while it was an unabashedly large phone, it looked compact for its size. At 157.6 mm long, it is well over the half foot size that most use to place a device in the phablet range, and at 79....

In terms of design, the Galaxy A20 features a 6.4-inch, 1560 × 720 pixels HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-V display on the front. And a fingerprint scanner mounted on the rear of the device. Under the hood, it is powered by an Octa-Core Exynos 7884 chipset, paired with 6GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage (expandable up to 512GB using a microSD card). The A20 runs also includes a 3....

Honey, I gave the A52 some Complan! With the Galaxy A52, Samsung took a very different path when it comes to design. It ditched the whole glass/glass-like (glasstic?) back design ethos and not only embraced polycarbonate with open arms but also turned it into a cause for celebration. The design of the Galaxy A52 was so distinct that it became one of the highlights of the smartphone. Fortunately, Samsung has followed the same design blueprint quite religiously in the case of the Galaxy A72 as well....

There’s not much difference between the two, either. Both have a 6-inch tall 720p screen and are powered by a quad-core chipset. Oddly, though, the Galaxy J6, which theoretically should have an inferior processor, comes with an octa-core chip. Other similarities between the Galaxy J4+ and Galaxy J6+ include a 3300mAh battery, Android 8.1 Oreo with the company’s own skin on top, and a fingerprint sensor housed under the power key....

Samsung Galaxy S20 The Galaxy S20 is the base variant this time as they seem to have gotten rid of the smaller “e” model. This is also the smallest of the lot with a 6.2-inch 2K Dynamic AMOLED display. There’s a dot-notch just like the Note 10 from last year. The biggest update though is that the display now supports a refresh rate of 120Hz. Samsung has traditionally been the best in the business when it comes to the quality of displays on their smartphones, and the high refresh rate is now a cherry on top....

The Snapdragon 865, though, is a flagship SoC and Qualcomm wanted to make 5G accessible to mid-range smartphone users too, and hence they launched the Snapdragon 765G earlier this year. However, phones with that chipset haven’t made their way to the Indian market yet probably because the hardware itself is expensive and 5G, as we mentioned earlier, will need at least 2-3 years to commercially roll-out. The upcoming OnePlus Nord or OnePlus Z is expected to be the first smartphone in India with the Snapdragon 765G but we need to wait....

By jailbroken, we mean to say that PS3 has been hacked to play backed-up games without discs. Quite obviously this will result in hundreds and thousands of pirated copies flowing around the torrent sites. The system is called ‘PS Jailbreak‘ and is apparently capable of ‘backing-up’ games on both the older PS3 Fat and the newer PS3 Slim retail consoles. As Engadget points out, for the fact that PS3 has been seen as the toughest nut to crack all these while, it is better to wait and watch if this PS Jailbreak stuff is for real....

However, headphones are bulky and cannot be carried around as easily as a pair of earphones. To tackle this, Sony launched the WF-1000XM3 which borrows the same active noise cancellation technology from its headphone sibling and puts it into a much more portable form factor. The Sony WF-1000XM3 is one of the few pairs of TWS earphones that have ANC but it is not just about their ability to cancel out ambient noise that makes them desirable....

As of now, existing users can log in to Spotify’s official website and change the country to be able to use make payments to the Premium plans. For which, they need to go to this page, change the country to India (in case you have selected another country), and wait for a few minutes before the plans are displayed on the screen. On the other hand, those wanting to use the service for the first time may not be able to sign up and pay for the plans currently....
