OnePlus 9 to Support 8K at 30fps Video Recording

 By Vaibhav Jain on December 17, 2020       

So now that we've seen the inital design of OnePlus Next Flagship, let's move to the high-end Specifications it is coming with, and looks like we have a huge improvement there. Just wanna say OnePlus is not playing games anymore, they're bringing something huge upgrades to the table this time. It's not normal upgrade, this is a huge Improvement in their

SoWe can Exclusively Confirm both the OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro will supports 8K Video Recording at 30fps. Right now no OnePlus Smartphones supports 8K at 30fps, even the Galaxy S20 series supports 8K at 24fps. Only a very few smartphones supports 8K at 30Fps right now. The Current Chipset 865 and upcoming CPU 875 5G do supports 8K at 30Fps, but the Camera sensor OnePlus is using right now the IMX586 is not capable of 8K video recording, even the IMX689 there's no confirmation if it can record 8K at 30Fps.

OFFICIALLY we've a few sensors which can do 8k at 30Fps and those are, Samsung's 108MP, The GW2 64MP, Omnivision OV48C which is there in the Mi 10 Ultra, and the Upcoming IMX 786 may support 8K at 30fps.There are some sensors and phones which upscales 4k or 6k, and make them 8k, but there are only a few which actually supports 8k at 30fps. No information on which sensor OnePlus is goonna use, but this do mean we're indeed getting a new and better Sensor which can do 8k at 30Fps with High Dynamic Range On.

Please Welcome in 8K at 30fps Video Recording - OnePlus 9 / OnePlus 9 Pro pic.twitter.com/ZThARQjV0l

Google expected to sell only 800K units of Pixel 5 in 2020

 By Vaibhav Jain on September 30, 2020       

The Google's Pixel 5 and Pixel 4A XL are on it's way and this year Google is targeting a wide range of Audience by Lowering down the Price and ofcourse Lowering down the Specifications. Unlike the Pixel 4, Pixel 3, Pixel 2 XL or the OG Pixel Phone, the Pixel 5 is a Mid-range Smartphone with some Flagship Features.

Google is looking to produce only around 800K units of the Pixel 5 in 2020. Google is expected to ship 3 million units if we combine the Pixel 5, Pixel 4a 5G, and Pixel 4a together. This year, the top selling phones were Galaxy A51 and iPhone 11, so Google with Pixel 4A and Pixel 5 can easily surpass most phones.

"Google gave a relatively conservative order forecast this year because its flagship Pixel 4 did not sell well last year, and because COVID-19 is causing their team to stay on the safe side concerning handsets for now."

FYI, Google sold 7.2 million Pixel Smartphones last year, but this year due to Covid-19, All the Tech Giants including Google got affected, so shipping 3M Units of New Phones in 2020 is not bad at all. 

OnePlus 8T OFFICIAL TEASER is now LIVE

 By Vaibhav Jain on September 20, 2020       

OnePlus finally revealed that the OnePlus 8T is real and is Coming Officially next month. They're also throwing a Contest where users can Win a brand new OnePlus 8T or Discount on OnePlus Devices just by Clicking on "Notify Me" for the OnePlus 8T News.

OnePlus also released a Trailer Teaser with Brand Ambassador Rober Downey Jr. (also known as RDJ) to promote the upcoming OnePlus 8T 5G Smartphone. Sadly this also confirms there's no OnePlus 8T Pro this year.

We saw the Design of OnePlus 8T a few days back and it's coming with Samsung Galaxy S20 Like Camera module with 48MP likely IMX689. OnePlus will be using 65W SuperWarp Charging, 120Hz FHD+ Display, and Snapdagon 865+ CPU.

So the launch event Kicks 14th October and we're also expecting New OnePlus Nord Devices with OnePlus Buds Z and finally OnePlus Watch. 

Sorry, Android. Google Widget on iPhone is Cool

 By Vaibhav Jain on September 19, 2020       

So Google just made this Cool new Widget Available for iPhones running iOS 14. Apple iOS 14 finally comes with an Option where you can place Widgets inbetween your Applications and that's Something Android has been doing for years, but you know, when Apple do it, it's Cool.

This new Search Widget looks really nice and is available in different sizes for iOS 14. It Got a Search Bar, Lens, Voice Search and Incognito Option right there. Sadly it's not available for Google's own Android, Google likely want it to be iOS Exclusive.

This is not the first time we're seeing something like that from Google's side, Google got a sweet spot for iOS. Motion Stills, Photovine and there are many Cool Google Applications first came to iOS and then made their way to Android.

As an Android user, this makes me feel like Google loves iOS more than Android. Not Cool Google.

This is the Google Pixel 5

 By Vaibhav Jain on August 21, 2020       

Despite of having a Not-So-Premium Plastic Body, Single Camera, and a Small Battery, the Pixel 4A is a huge success, and that's because Google nailed it with the Pricing and Camera.

With the Pixel 5, Google is planning to follow same approach, that's a Plastic Body with Rear-Fingerprint Scanner, and Dual Cameras on Back. Google is using Snapdragon 765 5G CPU in this one.

Basically, it can be seen, Google is mainly focusing on two things, that's Android Software and Camera. There's also a lot Cheaper Google Pixel 4A 5G Coming in with nearly same Specs like Pixel 5 but downgrade Design.

This year there's no Flagship Pixel device like with Higher-Refresh rate, or Higher Megapixels count, or Snapdragon 865 CPU, or IP68 Rating. Main focus is again on Camera, which are unbeatable and Software.
