Some Exciting OneUI 4.1 Features includes iOS Style Smart Widget which won’t need much space and can swipe between different widgets allowing users to keep a single widget on screen, saving space, and at same time you guys can use all widgets like clock, Samsung notes, date and time. There are new Quick Settings as well, Samsung have done small changes in the Text, it is now Medium than Bold in OneUI 4. Now I’m gonna show you guys the Animation and System Apps Interface, but there are small changes, but you won’t notice much.
 


In the Camera application Pro mode, you can now switch to Main, Ultra Wide, Telephoto 3x and Telephoto 10X, in ONEUI 4 it just Wide and Main. There are some new features in the Settings, like the Storage Section has an Option RAM Plus, which is like a visual RAM, by default it was 4 Gigs in OneUI 4, and now in 4.1, you can choose 2 Gigs to Max out 8 Gigs. 

Finally the Lockscreen Wallpaper service has a new option Samsung Global Goals, you can get daily messages about the figures, on how much change Samsung have done in the society, so a nice initiative. The OneUI 4.1 is not only about the Features, but the animation is now faster than ever and I really like this change.

Xiaomi Mi MIX 4 Looks AMAZING!

 By Vaibhav Jain on November 01, 2021       

So the Xiaomi Mi MIX 4 is now Official,we've come a long way, this is the first ever device with a proper In-Display Camera, Finally a device without any Notches or Punch Hole or Moving parts like Sliding Mechanism. The Official Specifications are now out, so is the design, So this is all about the Xiaomi Mi MIX 4.

Now main highlight of this device is a 6.67 inches display, this is a 1080P Panel, with Gorrila Glass Vicus on top, Display contains all elements which you can find in a Max out Flagship device, what you cannot find is the In-Display 20MP Camera, Display on top of Camera contains space in sub pixel, so that the Sensor can grab light and take some amazing shots, this along with hiding the Camera inside display... So this is an amazing solution, you can see how it hides itself.. Xiaomi says with the MIUI Camera, this can take some amazing selfei images. This is a 60 hz 90 hz 120Hz Quad Curve Display, but with a rectangular boxy finish, nothing like the XIaomi Mi 11.

Mix 4 is getting some new colors, Shadow Greenish Blue, Ceramic Grey and Ceramic White.Back Finish is quite similar to Samsung S20 Ultra, Main HMX Sensor, supports OIS, 13MP Super Wide, 8MP Telephoto lens with 5X Optical zoom with OIS. I'm not a fan of that HMX Sensor, coz it got some serious focus issues, can be seen the Camera Specificattions is not their main highlight. Here are some Camera samples, and as always they look nice.



There were some last minute changes in the Specifications, We have a 120W Fast Charging, Xiaomi claims it can go 80% in 10 mins, and in 21mins, full 100%. The Battery size is 4500mAh, not that huge, Wireless charging is tone down to 50W due to some helth laws in China,So i guess if this goes on we wont see any massive 80W or 200W fast charging ever.

Some other Specifications are IP68, Nice, Qualcomms 888+ in which Cortex-X1 has got a clock speed of 2.995GHz, there are some AI improvements too. LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 Storage.

Xiaomi have made varitey of cases official, they all look nice.

So now about the Pricing, The Xiaomi Mi Mix 4 Starts 4999 Yuan which is Insane, like I was not expecting such amazing pricing. It goes to 6299 yuan for max out variant.

MacBook Pro M1 Should you buy now or Wait

 By Mohd Azam on July 31, 2021       

Apple has always been in the first position when it comes to sales of the laptop because they made the best performance laptop in a compact design with the best quality build and refined operating system. From the last few months rumors have suggested Apple is working on a new MacBook Pro with a new design, Apple Silicon processor, and much more.

According to the rumors this year Apple will be announcing 2 new MacBook Pro with a brand new design and a new Apple Silicon processor on the inside. Apple will release a new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro with a new mini-LED screen technology with a new M1X processor. The new MacBook could also feature a flat-edged design like we've seen in the iPad Pro and iPhone 12 and may also remove the Touch Bar and will return to the old functional keys.

Last year Apple has released its first Apple Silicon chip M1 with tons of improvements and amazing performance embedded that in a very small chipset. The performance and battery life of the M1 MacBook are unbeatable in the price segment. We've also seen the M1 MacBook almost beat last year's 16-inch MacBook Pro in terms of performance and battery life is also fabulous.

New MacBook Pro Expectations

  • Brand new design with a flat-edged screen with mini-LED
  • All new M1X processor
  • Extra ports (HDMI, SD Card)
  • New MagSafe charging port
  • Up to 64GB of RAM
  • 16 and 32 Graphics variations
  • and much more..
According to the latest leaks, Apple will release the new MacBook Pro in the third or last quarter this year. While Apple tend to release the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro last month but the company is battling from the ongoing chip-shortage. New MacBook can also be delayed further because of this issue.

At the end I want to say that if you need a machine for web browsing, app development or any other simple task you can definitely buy the currently available M1 MacBook or else if you need some extra ports, amazing display, extra performance and new design you can wait for the upcoming MacBook Pro and if you already have Mac machine you definitely should wait for the new upcoming MacBook.

Although, while not publicly but Google used "Quince Tart" for Android 10 and "Red Velvet Cake" for Android 11 internally. 


With Android 12 named Snow Cone, Google is back on track with using dessert as android codenames. Now,as per a leak posted on Twitter by Mishaal Rahman, indicating that the Android 13 "T" will have the codename "Tiramisu". For the unknown, Tiramisu is a coffee-flavoured Italian dessert.
