iPhone 13 tipped to feature a smaller notch, Wi-Fi 6E, LiDAR sensors, and more

 


HIGHLIGHTS

  • The upcoming iPhone 13 series is likely to support Wi-Fi 6E
  • It will also come with a smaller notch and better depth-sensing capabilities due to D-ToF and LiDAR sensors. 
  • Apple is also expected to increase the number of sensors on the iPhone 13 camera. 

iPhone 13 leaked specifications indicate that the handset would come with improved depth-sensing capabilities and feature Wi-Fi 6E support. Unlike the iPhone 12 series, the iPhone 13 release date is expected to be sometime in September 2021. A new report from MacRumors suggests that the iPhone 13 will be the first iPhone to come with Wi-Fi 6E. An earlier leak told us that the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra would be the only smartphone of the Galaxy S21 series to support Wi-Fi 6E functionality. Alternatively, another report out of Digitimes tells us that all three iPhone 13 models will come with LiDAR sensors. 


Traditional 802.11 b/g/n/ac/ax routers can interface with devices over two bands; 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz. Wi-Fi 6E adds a third 6GHz band that improves upon the latter with higher throughput and lower latency. With Wi-Fi 6E, the iPhone 13 can hit speeds of up to 3.6Gb/s, allowing users stream at never-before-seen speeds. However, one will require a router that supports the band to take full advantage of the functionality. As of now, Wi-Fi 6E routers are few in number, but we can expect to see that change by the time the iPhone 13 launches. 

The LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) module made its debut on the iPad Pro and has since made its way to the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. This time around, all three (or four) iPhone 13 variants will have one alongside a D-ToF (Direct time-of-flight) sensor. If both sensors work in tandem with each other, the iPhone 13 series should have some impressive depth-sensing capabilities. Lastly, Apple is also expected to ramp up the number of sensors on the iPhone 13 series, though the actual number may vary by the SKU. In all likelihood, the maxed-out iPhone 13 Pro Max (tentative) could come with four rear camera sensors in a square-shaped pattern. Other expected iPhone 13 specs include a smaller notch, a 120Hz refresh-rate screen, and an upgraded ultra-wide-angle lens.

How to transfer your PUBG Mobile account to Battlegrounds Mobile India

One of the biggest questions people had at the announcement of Battlegrounds Mobile India or even PUBG Mobile India was if the new game would carry over their progress. This was a very valid question. After all, some players had spent years playing the game and losing all their progress and items they had would be heart-breaking and a tad unfair. Especially for those who had spent real-world money on in-game item Thankfully, Krafton has given players a way to regain access to their old account. Provided they linked their account to Facebook or Twitter. If you’ve just installed the game, you should be prompted to link your account automatically.

Moto G 5G review

  A detailed take on Moto's new affordable 5G phone Expert Rating 4/5 Design ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Display ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Software ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Camera ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Performance ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Battery ★★★★★ ★★★★★ Pros Great performance Capable cameras Clean software Decent battery life Cons Misses out on high screen refresh rate Bland design Off late, 5G has become quite a talking point in western markets and Asian countries like China and South Korea. Smartphone makers have been emphasising on 5G support as a key factor while marketing their devices. However, in a country like India, where 5G networks aren’t available at the moment, there is little incentive for buyers to eye phones solely for their 5G chops. Enter, the Moto G 5G, which is currently being heralded as the cheapest 5G-capable smartphone in India with a starting price of  Rs 20,999. The phone is also the first in the Indian market to ship with the all-new Snapdragon 750G SoC which coupled with its near-stock Android roots...

OnePlus deepens integration with Oppo

OnePlus has officially extended its integration with Oppo in order to streamline its operations and make “better products”, according to CEO Pete Lau. Earlier this year, OnePlus and Oppo merged their respective R&D teams months after Pete was appointed the Senior Vice President and Chief Product Experience Officer of the investor group OPLUS which is an investor group that looks after OnePlus, Oppo and Realme.“With this deeper integration with OPPO, we will have more resources at hand to create even better products for you. It will also allow us to be more efficient, for example, bringing faster and more stable software updates for OnePlus users,” Pete wrote in a post on OnePlus forums.    OnePlus has often found itself marred in controversy over its dependence on Oppo since both of them are managed by the same conglomerate, BBK Electronics. So, it is an interesting development now that OnePlus is officially merging with Oppo.   Even though OnePlus will be merging it...
