Like all other out-of-the-box products from the Lei Jun-led company, this one is not developed in-house by Xiaomi. Instead, the smart electric toothbrush, which now is available for crowdfunding via Xiaomi’s official platform, is made by a company known as Soocare Cassels. Dubbed the Xiaomi Soocare X3, the first electric toothbrush from the Chinese firm makes use of a magnetic levitation acoustic wave motor with swing speeds as high as 37200 per minute to clean every other part of your teeth....
Yahoo was in fact the first to introduce access to Yahoo account by SMS verification, a method wherein every time a user wants to login to his Yahoo mail account the password will be sent to the registered mobile number in the form of a OTP, just like how bank authenticates its transactions. Yahoo in a bid to improvise on the OTP password has introduced a better login method which is more efficient as well....

Users will now see a download icon underneath videos which will allow users to store the content in standard or high definition. YouTube also provides the file sizes next to each option, so, for example, you can choose to download in HD or in normal quality. Since a YouTube Music Key subscription isn’t required, users can download pretty much all the content that is available online....
It does tick the boxes in terms of specs – the rear camera is of 13.0 megapixels and is a Sony IMX 135 CMOS sensor, with a F/2.2 aperture, and is made using the five piece Largan Blue Lens Architecture. The front is a 5.0-megapixel affair. But all this is just so much jargon. How do those cameras actually perform? Well, we gave them both a go, sticking to auto mode....
New ZTE Smartphones We only have a few specifications about the most of these products, so I won’t bore with with long descriptions as the products, at least, a good part of them, aren’t yet available on the ZTE website. But, instead, I’ll try to give you the raw idea of what the smartphone is presenting by including in the picture a small description. ZTE Acqua ZTE U 970 ZTE Tania ZTE Style Q ZTE PF 112 ZTE Orbit ZTE Nova 3....
The #BoycottChina initiative started with the uninstallation of Chinese apps and has spread to products, primarily smartphones. As a country, it’s always desirable to be self-sufficient and encourage local brands in the hope to boost the plummeting economy. ‘How valid’ is the initiative is best decided by individuals, but ‘how practical’ is it? Let’s discuss this. The number game The Indian smartphone market is dominated by the Chinese-headquartered OEMs for the past half a decade or so....
Let’s get started with the looks. Apologies up front for the quality of the shots, but you can clearly see that the Jio 4G VoLTE phone is branded as Lyf, which is Jio’s sister-brand. The phone has a typical candy bar design with a 2.4-inch color screen on top and dual-language keypad at the bottom. There is a dedicated key for Torchlight (who wouldn’t want one?) flanked by the keys to receive and cut calls....
But if revealing a new version of the 3310 was a marketing masterstroke in terms of grabbing attention, it remains to be seen whether it will prove to be commercially successful as well. After all, not everyone is going to be swayed purely by sentiment in a world that is seemingly obsessed with spec sheets. And there are those who even feel that the new 3310 is actually nothing like the original it was named after (our own features writer rather bluntly stated that it did not make her feel sentimental in the least)....
What every smartphone looks like What do smartphones look like these days? The tall display on front bundled with thin bezels and a drop notch? Plus a glass or glass-like back? This is definitely the latest template for smartphones across different categories and the Nokia 4.2 follows it to a T. It comes with a tall 5.7-inch display bundled with the latest design hygiene in smartphones, the drop notch. The screen is surrounded by thin bezels but comes with a slightly thick chin, which comes with ‘Nokia’ branding....
In a world full of phones with fingerprint scanners, the Redmi 5A is denied of it, just like its predecessor. And this is understandable as Xiaomi is cutting the costs and keeping things minimum, and this what you would instantly notice. Speaking of instantly noticing, you would also see the 5A is hard to tell apart from the 4A. It’s the same 5-inch laminated HD display that packs around 296 pixels per inch....
Although we are learning about the launch of OnePlus’ new wireless earphones now, the company already put out hints for the same with a tweet a few days back. It did not, however, specify anything related to the specifications or the features of its upcoming earphones. Moreover, at the point, we do not have an insight into the product, nor do we have renders or first look teasers for the same....
Yu managed to ruffle some feathers as it was the first smartphone from India to be powered by the now defunct Cyanogen OS. The brand tried to emulate the Chinese powerhouse, Xiaomi, by diversifying into non-smartphone products like portable printers and fitness brands. In the initial days, Yu garnered a good response and it was the time when Micromax was leading the sales chart and was ahead of its competitors....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKok5dykRBM Apple recently released a short ad to remind us how it does bokeh on the iPhone. But does it bokeh-out its competition? “Who is blurred out there in the background?” “Depth Control — Bokeh’d” is a 38-second spot that begins with a small group of moms sitting and scrolling through the pictures of their kids. As one of them is swiping through the pictures, the second mom notices something in a photo and asks her friend about the blurred out kid in the background....
https://youtu.be/BJq4d1-lHq8 Let there be Portrait Lighting…let there be studio lights! The 39-second long ad, titled “iPhone X — Studio in your pocket” features a young woman at a busy railway station.
