But the one constant that remains across all these updates is Apple‘s commitment to user privacy that advances further with new measures to protect user’s private data. Here is a look at all the new privacy features and advancements arriving on iOS 15, iPadOS 15, watchOS 8, and macOS Monterey. iOS 15, iPadOS 15, watchOS 8, and macOS Monterey Privacy Features At WWDC 2020 last year, Apple introduced a series of privacy-oriented features on iOS 14, iPadOS 14, and macOS Big Sur....

The mammoth 6.98-inch display is set at HD (720p) and it is complemented by the dual box speaker setup at the front. The Canvas Fantabulet draws its power from an unnamed quad-core processor clocked at 1.3GHz and paired with 1GB of RAM. On the imaging front, the phablet offers an 8-Megapixel primary camera and a 2-Megapixel secondary sensor. Micromax must have had a hard time to shave off that 0....

That being said, laptops are still left in the lurch and they are often easy targets for thieves. The laptops can be wiped off easily and resold without much of a risk. Yes, Microsoft has earlier introduced the “Find my Device” feature on Windows 10 but that’s not much of a help if the user doesn’t connect to the internet, which unlike smartphones, is a much more likely scenario. Microsoft has now come up with a new solution that will protect your laptop even it doesn’t come with an LTE option or an active cellular connection....

We now live in a world where smartphones have become an integral part of our lives; some use them for business meetings, games, chatting with friends on social media, and much more.

If you work from home, it might also be essential for you to get your mobile data working again as soon as possible....

Motorola Razr: Design and Display In terms of design, the Razr follows the same design principle as the OG Razr that built on the flip-phone form factor, except that it does the same by incorporating a display that folds into half. Talking about the display itself, the phone features two displays: a 6.2-inch pOLED primary panel on the inside and a 2.7-inch one on the outside. The main display comes with a 21:9 aspect ratio and offers a 2142 x 876 pixels screen resolution, while the smaller display is a gOLED panel that serves as a secondary display for viewing notifications and other basic information....

The option for recording calls on Truecaller needs to be enabled inside the settings. There’s a new “Call Recording” menu which lets you turn the feature on and even specify whether you’d like to manually begin the tapping for each call. The recordings can be found through a new option in the navigation bar located on the left edge. Sadly, though, call recording is part of the company’s Premium subscription....

Ockel Sirius B is compatible with Windows 10 but you can also opt for a version without a pre-installed OS, which obviously is cheaper. The device is the size of a smartphone and weighs around 120 grams, which makes it really lightweight and easy to carry around. It’s also said to be 100% silent due to its fan-free design. This pocket PC comes with Intel technology, HDMI, Wifi 5.0Ghz, 2 USB ports, a micro SD card slot, audio connection and Flash storage....

And it has done the same with its watch. The OnePlus Watch released earlier this year got most things right, and the ones it did not like an always-on display were fixed (in best OnePlus tradition) through updates. Now it has got a special edition that is, well, magical. Literally. Let us get one thing clear at the very outset – the OnePlus Harry Potter Limited Edition Watch is basically the same OnePlus Watch that was released earlier....

The Energy series of smartphones are aimed at first time smartphone users, and company doesn’t want them to be exposed to shabby hardware and software experience.

The Note 9 Pro…by another name For, there’s no denying that the third Poco phone released in the Indian market (after the F1 and the X2) is very much an out and out Redmi Note 9 Pro. Yes, it looks a little different with its dual-tone back (oh them Pixel feels) and slightly differently designed camera unit (check our first cut), but that apart, make no mistake about it – this is a Redmi Note 9 Pro in Poco clothing....

Poco M3: Design and Display Starting with the design, the Poco M3 features a slightly distinct rear design: one that has a textured (leather-like) finish and incorporates a rectangular camera block to house the camera and the Poco branding.

The Kryo 250 houses four performance as well as four efficiency cores with a maximum clock speed of 1.8Ghz in either case....

Connecting the Razer Phone to the dock powers the laptop, which apart from a battery and a few extra GBs of storage, entirely relies on the phone including the speakers. Doing so extends the phone’s interface on to the bigger screen which you can control with a full-sized keyboard and the Razer Phone itself as the trackpad. In a nutshell, you’re basically using a big Android tablet with a keyboard and mouse....

Very handsome indeed It does not cost a bomb, but the Realme 3 does come with flauntable looks. They might not be to everyone’s taste, but there is no way in which you can say that this looks like a budget smartphone. The front is all about a 6.22-inch display, protected by Gorilla Glass 5 and complete with the drop notch that is the trend these days, and bezels that are very slim, although the chin of the device is a bit on the thicker side....

With these new additions, the number series now consists of a total of five devices to choose from, leading to more confusion for users.

We want faster access to information and we want it for free. The rise of the online environment has been so powerful that it has attracted even TV viewers. We no longer pick our stories from physical newspapers or TV channels, but social media and online outlets....

Accompanying the rather sleek cylindrical design is a pulse light that glows in different colors and kind of acts like a personal notification center, something that we usually find on our Android phones. Needless to say one can configure the color for the notifications. The Cylindrical form factor that we are now talking about is chiseled out of metal and it houses a 6th Gen Intel Core i5 or i7 processor with an option of up to 16GB RAM....

Samsung claims to be using an Infinity flex display in the construction of the Super AMOLED curved panel used on the foldable smartphone which according to them required the use of a special type of foldable adhesive which would hold all the layers of the display intact despite folding and unfolding the device multiple times. The way the mechanism works is that there is a primary display on the front like a regular smartphone which is quite regularly sized as per smartphone standards, but the magic happens when you unfold the book-like structure which reveals a huge 7....
