Realme, a Chinese smartphone manufacturer, released the GT Neo 5 in February and is preparing to release the Realme GT Neo 5 SE on April 4. While teasers and leaks have revealed some fascinating features about the impending device, let’s look closely at what we know.
According to Realme’s teaser, the GT Neo 5 SE will have a flat front display and curved sides and back. The camera configuration will include a single lens in the upper cutout and two sensors in the below. The phone will come in two colors: black and Final Fantasy Blue.
The front display of the GT Neo 5 SE will have minimal bezels and a punch hole in the center for the front camera. Images also show an in-display fingerprint sensor.


Regarding configuration, the Realme GT Neo 5 SE will be equipped with the latest Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 chipset comparable to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC. It should be noted that the Cortex-X2 prime body has never been used in a 7-series SoC. Yet, even with this technology, the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 outperforms the Qualcomm 8+ Gen 1. The chipset includes the Adreno 725 GPU, which has a lower clock speed limit of 580mAh rather than 900mAh, similar to the Adreno 730 GPU seen in the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.
The GT Neo 5 SE scored 1,009,127 on the AnTuTu benchmark, which is impressive for a mid-range smartphone. The phone’s SoC combines up to 16GB of LPDDR5x Memory, 1TB of UFS 3.1 storage, and Android 13.0. The phone also includes a 5,500mAh battery with 100W fast charging capabilities.


Although the exact camera specifications are unknown, rumors indicate that the GT Neo 5 SE will offer an excellent camera configuration. The front-facing camera will likely feature a 16MP resolution, while the rear camera system will likely contain a 64MP OmniVision primary camera with an f/1.79 aperture.

The video provides a comprehensive look at the foldable phone’s design, highlighting some fascinating elements that will set it apart.
The red rear panel of the Vivo X Fold 2 features a dual-tone appearance, giving it a trendy and eye-catching appearance.

WhatsApp Expands Text Editing Options: Latest Beta Version Adds Instagram-like Features

0

WhatsApp is unquestionably at the top of the list of instant messaging apps. Because of its acquisition by Meta, the app’s functions have expanded beyond texting. WhatsApp has taken components from its sister apps, Facebook and Instagram. The current beta version of the program now includes text editing capabilities for images similar to Instagram, allowing users to add more customized touches to their shared content.


The latest beta version of WhatsApp (v2.23.7.17) has a new text editor interface that allows users to add text to an image delivered to a contact or as a status update, according to WABetaInfo. Although this functionality was already included in the app, the new update adds additional functions and text editing options that improve the user experience.


WhatsApp now has at least seven font variations, including Calistoga, Courier Prime, Damion, Exo 2, and Morning Breeze. Users can select their favorite font from a menu above the keyboard, avoiding the need to push a single button to switch between fonts repeatedly. The new fonts are similar to those seen on Instagram.


Furthermore, the most current beta version of WhatsApp offers the ability to change the color of the text backdrop, allowing for greater text visibility in high-contrast conditions. Users can also utilize this functionality to distinguish the specific text. Additionally, the current version has text alignment features similar to word processors, allowing users to position the reader to the left, right, or center. Only the center alignment option was previously provided.


According to WABetaInfo, the new text editor interface is being rolled out in phases to beta testers, so it may take some time before it appears on Android smartphones. However, including this functionality in the most recent beta version signals that it will be accessible in the app’s stable version shortly. These new capabilities expand WhatsApp’s already robust messaging experience, giving users even more power and flexibility in communicating.

Enhancing Video Editing Capabilities on Chromebooks with LumaFusion and Google Photos

0

Last year, Google Photos released extensive video editing tools for Chromebooks, considerably enhancing the ChromeOS platform. Furthermore, the recent release of LumaFusion for ChromeOS and Android has improved video editing capabilities on Chromebooks. The Google Photos team has launched additional video editing options, including preset formats and themes for the latest Chromebooks, to facilitate personalized movie-making from photographs and video clips.


These new features use Google Photos’ previous connection with the ChromeOS Gallery app, and Photos will eventually be able to edit files, including photographs or videos. According to a recent Google support page post, the newly introduced movie production tools allow users to choose from pre-suggested themes or create their own by picking specific films and photos from the Gallery or Files app.


Enter “movie” into the ChromeOS launcher search box to access Google Photos and choose your editing style. When you select the suggested themes option, you can select a topic and the people or animals you want to see in your personalized movie. This feature is ostensibly intended to catch the “most meaningful moments” in a long film, saving you the time it would take to search for them manually.
While this function allows anyone to create video segments from their existing media library easily, Google also provides an option to build a movie that appears more autonomous. This is good for video editors seeking greater creative control over their output. Google offers a separate support website for ChromeOS users that explains how to use the newly added functionality.


According to rumors, Google intends to update ChromeOS to Material You and support Android 13 rather than Android 11. With the Android version upgrade, the new dynamic theming engine on ChromeOS, which Android 11 does not help, would be able to function uniformly across all apps.

Apple TV Multiview: A New Way to Stream Live Sports

0

For a few years, Apple’s systems have had the Picture-In function. Users can utilize this feature to view a movie in a floating window while surfing the rest of the OS. On the other hand, Apple wants to take this capability to the next level, particularly for live sports events through the Apple TV app.


Steve Moser has discovered code references to a new “Multiview” experience in the iOS 16.5 betas. This new feature will allow up to four streams to be streamed simultaneously. The MLS Season Pass and MLB Friday Night Baseball are already live streams on the Apple TV app. In the future, Apple will also negotiate other sports streaming arrangements.


Apple intends to deliver a quad-box PIP streaming experience for its sports streaming service, comparable to third-party apps like ESPN and FuboTV on tvOS. The iOS core has long-held references to a TV app multiview capability. Yet, the most recent beta has many more considerations, indicating that development is progressing.


The TV app multiview feature is not a system-wide video player capability but a TV app function. It is now limited to sports, with users able to start viewing the broadcast in full screen or Multiview mode when browsing sports in the TV app. The new strings correspond to a grid layout, and if the user attempts to add a fifth game to the grid, an error message will appear, indicating that the feature will handle up to four concurrent streams.


It will be available after the iOS 17 software release cycle concludes.

0

Even after only a few weeks on the market, the OnePlus 11 has quickly ascended to become one of the top flagship devices of 2023. OnePlus, on the other hand, has lately announced the production of a limited edition model, the Jupiter Rock, which will focus more on Jupiter.


This new edition will have a one-of-a-kind rear cover made of microcrystalline rock that was hand-picked utilizing a new self-developed manufacturing technique that took over a year to perfect. According to Li Jie, the president of OnePlus China, the new method has a 25% production efficiency and a yield rate half that of glass, resulting in a different texture on the rear panel of each Jupiter Rock OnePlus 11.


The Jupiter Rock OnePlus 11 will be released in China on March 29th; however, it will not be sold outside the country. Because of the challenges in mass production and the great demand for such phones and smartwatches in Asian nations, this limited edition phone is likely to be expensive.
OnePlus is no stranger to launching limited edition items, and they have, predictably, decided to launch this variant. While it is sad that it will not be accessible globally, the Jupiter Rock OnePlus 11 offers a glimpse into the new and unusual manufacturing techniques that OnePlus is developing.
