One of our favorite Android devices produced in 2022 is the Google Pixel 7 Pro, which is a powerful device. It has the ideal balance of software sophistication, performance, and battery life in a lovely and distinctive physical factor. The camera on the Pixel 7 Pro should not be overlooked. Three additional cameras were added over the Google Pixel 6 Pro’s predecessor: a new ultra-wide, a new selfie, and a slightly better ultra-wide zoom. On paper, everything seems fantastic, but in order to get the most of the arrangement, you need to know what to do. Here, we’ll go through all we know about it.

Pixel 7 Pro Cameras' AI and Zoom Could Make You Rethink That iPhone - CNET

1. Focus on the details with the Pixel 7 Pro’s Macro Focus

The Google Pixel 7 Pro’s Macro Focus mode is one of the capabilities made possible by the new ultra wide camera. The Google Camera automatically shifts to the ultra wide camera when you are sufficiently close to an object or topic. It enables you to take stunning pictures of the minute details you might be interested in because it can provide excellent photographs at a much closer distance than the primary lens. If you enjoy photographing flowers, water drops, snowflakes, insects, and other objects, this is really fantastic.

2.  Use 2x zoom for incredible portrait shots

The 50MP camera automatically merges four pixels into one while capturing photos at 1x, resulting in a 12.5MP image with more detail and light than it would typically obtain. You are using a portion of the sensor that gives around 12.5MP at the 2x zoom setting. Thus, without any additional effort on your part, Google can still provide you with a full-resolution image at a 2x zoom. Simply squeeze or press the 2x zoom shortcut located above the shutter button to zoom in.

3.  Fix your blurry shots with Photo Unblur

A new function called Photo Unblur was unveiled with the Google Pixel 7 Pro and its smaller brother. You may use it to automatically edit photographs that are just a little bit fuzzy so that they look to have been crisp from the start. You can obtain decent results if the image isn’t completely out of focus, especially if you just see your photos on a smartphone screen. The nice thing is that previous photos you uploaded to your Google Photos library may still be used with this function. This is how to accomplish it:

4.  Get up close on the Google Pixel 7 Pro with Super Res Zoom

Not just at 2x and 5x zoom, the Google Pixel 7 Pro camera excels. Google automatically combines the information from your telephoto and primary cameras when you zoom in up to 5 times, utilizing the best features of both sensors to provide a more accurate and less pixelated image. This technology operates in the background as you photograph. As the cameras swap or combine pictures, there is no irritating flickering or stuttering to be seen. Instead, all you have to look at is a fantastic outcome.

5.  Astrophotography session

When you’re far from civilization, the Google Pixel 7 Pro is the ideal partner for a cloud-free night out. The Pixel 7 Pro advances computational picture processing from previous Google Pixel phones’ outstanding night photography capabilities.

Make sure you’re far enough away from artificial light sources before you begin astrophotography and either mounting your phone on a tripod or firmly support it up so that it doesn’t move. You are immediately recommended to select astrophotography mode by Google. The camera creates a long exposure photo when you use it, which takes a while to be recorded. Without using fancy camera equipment or tinkering with settings, the outcome is magnificent and lets you plainly see the stars.

Can Stress Speed Up Vision Loss? Find Out
Image Source: Zululand Observer

An ongoing state of stress can gradually impair your vision, according to recent mouse research. According to recent studies, chronic stress prematurely ages eye cells and causes them to degenerate.

The cells in your eye age just like all other cells do. Nevertheless, a significant risk factor for glaucoma is the mass ageing and degeneration of retinal ganglion cells in the eye. Since people are living longer, it is predicted that by 2040, there will be over 110 million glaucoma patients worldwide.

The biology of stress

Retinal tissue is subjected to stress, such as increased intraocular pressure, which causes epigenetic and transcriptional alterations akin to those associated with ageing. The authors of the study demonstrated that repetitive stress caused the eye tissue to age more quickly in youthful retinal tissue. The discoveries could make it possible to target and maintain cellular activity in glaucoma patients.

The study’s lead author, Dorota Skowronska-Krawczyk, an assistant professor of physics and biophysics and ophthalmology and a member of the faculty at the Center for Translational Vision Research at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, says in a statement that the work emphasizes the significance of early diagnosis and prevention as well as age-specific management of age-related diseases, including glaucoma. The fact that epigenetic modifications were noticed suggests that chromatin changes are acquired cumulatively as a result of repeated stress. If and when the condition is identified early, this gives us a window of opportunity for the prevention of visual loss.

Long term effects

In healthy people, the range of the intraocular pressure’s circadian cycle is between 12 and 21 mmHg. At night, it affects over two-thirds of people at its maximum level. A single measurement of intraocular pressure is insufficient to forecast the course of glaucoma because there is a large variation in this parameter. A reliable indicator of the evolution of glaucoma is thought to be long-term variations in intraocular pressure. The results of the study advance this prediction. They contend that the ageing of retinal tissue is accelerated by both oscillations and the effects of frequent, moderate changes.

In healthy individuals, the intraocular pressure in the eye fluctuates within a range of 12 and 21 mmHg on a daily basis. It is more prevalent at night for over two thirds of people. One measurement of intraocular pressure is insufficient to predict the course of glaucoma in glaucoma patients due to the high variability of this measurement. One reliable indicator of glaucoma development is long-term variations in intraocular pressure. This prediction is expanded upon by the study’s findings. They contend that the ageing of retinal tissue is accelerated not just by oscillations, but also by the effects of frequent, moderate variations.

Without a new method that calculates age based on methylation changes in tissue DNA, the scientific work would not have been conceivable. The epigenetic clocks’ estimation of the age of retinal tissue will aid in detecting stress and potential eyesight loss.

Is Huawei Back In The Game?

Is Huawei Back In The Game?

Huawei used to be Samsung’s main competitor. The Chinese company temporarily led the world in smartphone sales. However, since the US first forbade Huawei from selling smartphones there and subsequently shut down its network equipment business, its business suffered significantly. Even more, it imposed limitations on the firm, prohibiting it from acquiring essential machinery for its smartphone operation.

When everyone assumed Huawei was over, the company declared its return to operations. This means a new wave of competition has entered the game

Massive growth in sales

Recently, Huawei reported a 7.2% increase in revenue over the prior year, or around $27.4 billion, for the fourth quarter of 2022. According to a Bloomberg article, Huawei’s full-year revenues were slightly higher than in 2021 at around CNY 636.9 billion (or $92.3 billion).

Well, the business opened up more revenue sources, including selling patents. Additionally, it provided services and marketed technology to more recent customers including industrial parks, miners, and automakers. It even started charging Apple, Samsung, and other companies for patent fees. Alan Fan, Huawei’s worldwide head of intellectual property, claims that the Chinese company inked more than 20 patent license deals in 2022 that included connected cars, the Internet of Things, networking, and smartphones.

The business was able to emerge from crisis mode in 2022. Restrictions in the US are now the new normal, and business is back to normal. Although there may be a lot of uncertainty in the macro-environment, digitalization and decarburization are the way of the future and represent the greatest potential.

What steps did Huawei take to bounce back?

According to reports, Huawei has spent the last three years looking for, developing, and acquiring technologies and components that are competitive with American products. The corporation even acknowledged working with China’s National Intellectual Property Administration to achieve a breakthrough in the EUV lithography technique. Huawei may no longer need to rely on ASML, Samsung, or American technology to produce cutting-edge smartphone chipsets (10nm) if its patent application is approved.

But it’s not quite that easy. Nobody can vouch for Huawei’s ability to manufacture an EUV lithography system with more than 100,000 parts. To produce sub-10nm chips, every brand needs cooperation and a big supply network. The business has made significant investments in several companies that are engaged in the equipment, foundry, materials, packaging, testing, and EDA (Electronic Design Automation) phases of a semiconductor chip. If Huawei can produce 5G processors and smartphone SoCs independently remains to be seen.

Competing with big brands

Despite everything, Google Mobile Services (GMS) may never return to Huawei’s smartphones and tablets. Without GMS, the majority of people worldwide may never purchase Huawei smartphones because they won’t have official access to essential services like Gmail, Google Driver, Google Maps, Google Pay, Google Photos, and YouTube.

Samsung doesn’t currently have any pressing concerns. Even if the business is able to produce its own processors, users may still favor Samsung phones, especially in western countries, due to rising worries about data security on Chinese smartphones. The South Korean company should continue to concentrate on enhancing its technology and goods so that it can fend against Huawei in the future.

Director Bilal Lashari Celebrates The Success Of The Legend Of Maula Jatt

Bilal Lashari’s directorial, The Legend Of Maula Jatt, has managed to smash records at the Pakistani box office. After bagging the record of being the highest-grossing film, Maula Jatt has now crossed 100 cr. at the Box Office in Pakistan and $10 million worldwide. The news was shared by the director himself on his Twitter account. The news of the Maula Jatt release being stalled in India was reported by the Indian media last week and came as a surprise since the certificate for the film release was already taken.

Taking to his Twitter, Lashari shared that the news has come in at the right time while thanking fans for the roaring success of the blockbuster movie.

Fawad Khan Talks To CNN

Fawad Khan on the other hand sat down with CNN to talk about the Lashari directorial and share his views about the success of the movie. The actor who played the lead role in the Punjabi film shared how the success of Maula Jatt has revived the Pakistani cinema industry paving the way for future productions.

Check out his detailed interview below

While sharing his thoughts Fawad Khan noted,

“It’s been big for me but I’m a small part of the entire setup. It’s essentially been a big year for Pakistani cinema as a whole. The kind of business this film has done, the kind of boundaries it has pushed, as far as the industry standards and business and even the style of filmmaking is concerned, it’s going to have a profound effect on the years to come. It’s been very long since the second coming of the industry and for it to travel so far and wide across the globe.”

“That would be great, if it were to happen, it’s a great way to handshake,” said Fawad. “I think it’s kind of like those sweets and delights we send across to one another on Eids and Diwalis. Film and music are that kind of exchange. But things are a bit heated still, let’s see. I’ve heard it may release and it may not,” he added.

Fawad Khan In MCU

Fawad Khan also reflected on his role in the MCU debut saying, “On a personal level, it’s always good to be reminded of your history and where you’re coming from. If it serves the purpose of keeping you grounded and also keeping you focused on carrying on certain traditions because that is your identity and you can’t run away from it.”

While Maula Jatt is soaring high worldwide on the big screens it is only a matter of time before that movie sets the tone for the upcoming films. It has been a rather great year for Pakistani cinema and the best is yet to come.

Is It Time To Wear Your Masks Again?

By
Dr. Rida Qamar

As China gears up to lift its no COVID policy nearly after three years of the COVID-19 pandemic, it seems like the decision is going to be in vain. A rise in COVID-19 cases is being observed all over the world and it is reported that the new omicron BF.7 is more likely the cause behind a sudden surge in the numbers. This puts travelers and people at greater risk once again; making it extremely important for everyone to gear up for other rounds of precautionary measures and masks.

What Is BF.7 Variant?

“Over the last three months, almost 130 Omicron sublineages have been newly detected in China.” Said Xu Wenbo, head of the virus control institute at China’s Centre for Disease Control and Prevention.

“Among those were XXB and BQ.1 and their sublineages, which have been spreading in the US and parts of Europe in recent months as a swarm of subvariants has competed for dominance worldwide. However BA.5.2 and BF.7 remain the main Omicron strains detected in China, Xu said, adding that the varying sublineages would likely circulate together.”

“Any variants, when more transmissible than the previously dominant ones – such as BQ.1, B2.75.2, XBB, CH.1, or BF.7 – definitely represent threats, since they can cause new waves. However, none of these known variants seems to exhibit any particular new risks of more severe symptoms to our knowledge, although that might happen with new variants in the coming future.” He added.

Rising Cases & Testing 

In light of the rising worldwide cases countries including the United States, Italy, Japan, India, and Malaysia have announced an increase in the health measures for travelers from China. Pakistan has also started thermal testing travelers and tourists at the airports countrywide. India also has started to instill precautionary measures for its citizens as a likely surge in the covid cases is expected in the country.

Health experts have warned that the sudden surge in the cases can lead to unprecedented mutations in the variants and hence more risk of spreading the infection.

The University of Washington School of Medicine forecasts a major omicron epidemic to unfold in the coming months. The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University released a model which shows that the lack of lockdowns and other measures worldwide, has the potential to reach the toll to a daily estimated number of 4.6 million by March 1, 2023.

The Saudi IT environment is developing quickly. Pakistan has the startups and skills to support this development. The team is excited to serve as this connection’s spark at Future Fest 2023 and to establish a venue for more cooperation and progress, as well as a new facet to the long-standing historical tie between Pakistan and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. the CEO of Future Fest, Arzish Azam, stated.

According to DCO Secretary-General Deemah AlYahya, the digital economy has recently grown at an unprecedented rate and is now becoming the foundation of our society. This growth has been fueled by innovation and technology. Pakistan is a founding member of the DCO, and by taking steps like enabling Future Fest, the DCO is bolstering the strong relationship we already have with Pakistan in order to bring prosperity to everyone.

What’s next

According to the experts’ findings, the ICT sector size is expected to reach $20 billion by 2025 in compliance with Pakistan Vision 2025 and the Digital Policy of Pakistan 2018. Without a question, the nation has survived the deadly strains of the Covid-19 epidemic and has come out stronger as a result of the trying 1.5 years. Together, with the Pakistani government, the ICT industry and regulator served as enablers, making it easier to control Covid-19 and promote economic growth.

The month-long competition started with thousands of teams signing up and participating online; it was eventually reduced to 16 fortunate teams that defeated their rivals to qualify. The 16 finalists then engaged in combat in Lahore over the course of two days in an effort to win a combined prize of PKR 6.8 million and the title of 2022 national champions.

After two days of breathtaking action and 10 games, team X Generation took the lead with their power-packed game followed by the runner-up team 7EQR x Rage Esport which took home PKR1.3 million and 52 Esports as the second runner up team that took home PKR795 thousand.

Speaking at the occasion, Khawar Naeem, Country Head-Pakistan at Tencent Games shared, “When it comes to talent, Pakistani athletes never stop to amaze you. PUBG MOBILE has been at the forefront of nurturing talent and PMNC 2022 was a chance for amateur talent to showcase their skills playing the nation’s favorite mobile Game. PUBG MOBILE is enabling young esports talent in finding their passion for gaming. The top teams from PMNC, PMPL and PMCO are now gearing up to play in the PMPL 2023 and I wish them good luck!”

Among the teams competing, 52 Esports was once the Champion team of PMPL Pakistan Spring, and was also the only team from Pakistan that qualified for PUBG MOBILE World Invitational. Last year, Team Bablu won the Champion title of PMNC Pakistan proving their mettle and building an audience for themselves.

The popularity of PUBG MOBILE Esports has seen rapid growth in the last 5 years. The gaming platform recently won an award for the Esports Mobile Game of the Year at the Esports Awards 2022 that were held in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The teams participating showed immense potential during the games proving the nation’s love for PUBGM. With PMNC, PUBGM Pakistan is fostering a new generation of young gamers by providing them with the needed resources and mentoring to help them take the gaming and esports industry in Pakistan to new frontiers.

What can be done?

The FBI has assigned a permanent representative at the US embassy in New Delhi who will cooperate with the Indian authorities to crack down on these gangs in response to a surge in Indian fraudsters taking money from elderly Americans.

How do these cons happen?

Suhel Daud, the FBI’s South Asia regional director and legal attaché at the US embassy in New Delhi, discussed the problem and disclosed that these con artists defraud the elderly of billions of dollars while posing as tech help, love-related calls, business investors, etc.

The US doesn’t want India to suffer, he continued, adding that the problem might not be one of national security but rather of a nation’s reputation. Additionally, he said that tech support frauds have cost innocent Americans INR 92 billion and have climbed by 130% yearly.

Are there any consequences?

The allegations state that the ring urged victims to submit money through wire transfer through a money transmitter company like Western Union or MoneyGram, by purchasing gift cards and giving them to the fraudsters, or by mailing cash to alias identities via FedEx or UPS using different ruses.

Couple In Lahore Bashed For Getting Their Wedding Photoshoot Done At A University

By
Dr. Rida Qamar
-

A prestigious University in Lahore turned into a photo shoot location for the newlywed couple and the internet isn’t happy about it. The photoshoot fiasco blew up on social media after the pictures from the photographer based in Lahore surfaced on Twitter. Many including those part of the university are not so amused and have taken to Twitter to share their disregard for the situation.

University Photoshoot 

While thinking about a location for a wedding photo shoot, a university doesn’t often come to mind. However, a couple in Lahore allegedly took their love for studies to the next level by getting their pictures taken in the vicinity of Kind Edward Medical University Lahore.

The University which is known for creating some of the top-notch doctors over the decades is one of the most renowned and reputable medical institutions in Pakistan. Soon after the news broke out, alumni from the University took to Twitter to share their views. He called out the couple and the photographer for being insensitive in a series of tweets about the historical landmark.

Calling out photographers as a breed of capitalism, he shared how such an incident mustn’t be taken lightly since the college’s legacy is being tarnished just for a mere amount of money. He also shared his views about the failing education system and how these incidents can have a detrimental impact on the prestigious educational and monumental location.

Meanwhile, in recent news, the administration of the University has taken notice of the incident. A notification was issued regarding the inquiry committee which has been set up and comprises three individuals.

Is The Backlash Relevant?

While some had their reasons for calling out the couple, the majority didn’t agree with the narrative. The argument was questioned since some of the best IVY league universities including Oxford and Harvard has already seen the same. Previously couples have gotten their wedding shoots done on the university premises and the concept is certainly not alien.

Another argument raised includes that there is no harm if the couple is an Edward College alumni. However, if that’s not the case then nothing can be said about it.

Now that the committee is set to take action on the breach of university policies, we will find out the proceedings in due time. Till then share your views in the comments below.

realme In The Year 2022 & How It Upped Its Game

By
Ariba Raza

Better connectivity, increasing data needs and consumption, and the release of reasonably priced 4G phones by companies like realme all contribute to a climate that is conducive to a value brand’s success. realme has produced phones with 5G, high refresh rate HDR OLED screens, and quad cameras. It has always been the brand that has provided more advanced technological advancements that are affordable for GenZ.

By sticking to its “leapfrogging” culture and steadfast purpose of establishing a “tech trendy brand” for young people all over the world, realme, unquestionably, has a unique knowledge in the expanding period of these exceptional growth patterns. realme’s product strategy, consumer insights, marketing tactics, market research, etc. in the Pakistani market all contribute to the brand’s authentic identity.

realme continues to produce incredible smartphones with inventive designs and cutting-edge technologies, like the realme C35 and 9 series, to stand out in the Pakistani market. Here is a selection of realme’s 2022 smartphones that are both affordable and have cutting-edge specifications to meet the needs of the consumer.

Let’s take a look at the year of significant developments, realme has done in the year 2022:

Quality Master Award:

In a poll about smartphone quality conducted for the first time in Pakistan to see if its readers and consumers, in general, can recognise elements of top-notch quality in their smartphones, realme was acknowledged by UrduPoint as the “quality master.” People were asked about many aspects of the quality of their smartphones in the study, and they could select from a variety of brands, including Samsung, Oppo, Vivo, Huawei, Infinix, Tecno, and realme. Following a four-day event, UrduPoint recognised the brand.

realme 9i:

Launched as the entry-level model in its line, the Realme 9i featured a new, 6nm 4G/LTE chipset and quicker charging than its forerunner. The realme 9i, which weighs about 187 grammes, is equipped with a 5000mAh battery, a MediaTek Dimensity 810 5G chipset, 4-6 GB of RAM, and 64–128 GB of storage for the greatest possible experience. Prices for the 4GB/64GB edition are more affordable than those for the 6GB/128GB variant, even if processing can be slower with 4GB RAM.

For the greatest images, it has a 6.6-inch LCD with a 90Hz refresh rate and 2408 x 1080 pixels. The phone’s dimensions of 164.4mm x 75.1mm x 8.1mm and weight of 187 grammes makes it more portable. Along with that, it features 18W Quick Charge technology and has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.

The smartphone also has a triple-rear camera with a 50-megapixel primary lens, a 2-megapixel telephoto lens, and a 2-megapixel macro lens for the greatest landscape photos. However, its 8MP wide-lens front camera can take good selfies.

realme 9 Pro +:

A new device from realme was released at the beginning of 2022, and its internet-spreading specs caused it to go viral overnight. Realme 9 Pro +, the first Plus model in the realme number series, astounded the fans by offering 5G, proving to be as exceptional as ever. Being a digital behemoth, realme is aware of user preferences, and the cutting-edge features of 9 Pro Plus were the icing on the cake. In the market, the realme 9 Pro + stood out thanks to its 920 5G MediaTek Dimensity Chipset, which was the most recent technology available for smartphones.

A clearer, uninterrupted display was made possible by the realme 9 Pro +’s 6.4-inch AMOLED screen. With its small, portable design and two trendy colours, Green and Sunrise Blue, the phone was undoubtedly a head-turner. Realme 9 Pro +’s 45000 mAh battery can power you through a full day of relaxing. The phone’s 50MP AI Triple Camera, which produces excellent photos, was another positive feature. Additionally, the realme C35 offers an 8GB + 128GB storage configuration, which makes it ideal for storing images, videos, games, and all of your favourite apps without lag.

Capture Ramadan Moments:

With the use of realmeow stickers and the hashtags #CaptureRamadanSpark and #realmePakistan, fans can share their Ramadan Spark Moments with friends and family on Instagram Stories for a chance to win incredible prizes from the company.

Gaming Competition:

realme organised a gaming competition with a sizable prize fund for the participants and clearly knows how to involve its fans in everything. Universities from throughout the nation entered the gaming tournament, and the final event was held in Lahore with the participation of Ducky Bhai, a well-known gaming YouTuber who has been Gen Z’s favourite for years and who they were extremely eager to meet in person.

realme C35:

As everyone is aware, when realme introduces a new smartphone to the Pakistani market, it takes sure to incorporate cutting-edge technologies and creative designs while also maintaining user expectations all year long. This year, realme introduced the C series, a mid-range smartphone that is modern and stylish while also maintaining the tone and position of the company. The C35 was introduced with a design marvel, and with its Glowing Silk Design, this phone was undoubtedly eye-catching, particularly in its Glowing Green Avatar.

It has a Unisoc T616 Octa-Core processor with a peak speed high performance, a 6.6-inch Ultra Smooth Display, and a 5,000 mAh battery to keep you going all day. The phone’s 50MP AI Triple Camera, which shoots excellent pictures, was another plus. The 4GB + 128GB storage configuration of the realme C35 makes it ideal for storing images, videos, games, and all of your favourite apps without lag.

Fan Fest and Music Party:

Everyone is anxious as the 828 Fan Fest celebrations get underway in realme. This celebration of realme’s successes throughout the year includes entertainment for and gratitude toward its ardent fans. The 828 Fan Fest gave people an opportunity to remember realme’s swift rise to prominence as the company that sold 100 million things the most quickly the year before.

Get ready to rock out in the sand and sun since realme had its first-ever Music Party at the beach in 2022. At this event, there was a mixture of realme users, celebrities, members of the media, photographers, and the wider realme network. aIn addition to amazing musical performances, experience zones offered partygoers the chance to learn more about realme’s future goals, have early access to never-before-seen realme items, and directly engage with the realme product line.

Factory Tour:

Realme was the first company to provide media access to its factory and offer locally made phones as an added bonus to customers. KOLs from various industries and niches were invited to a realme factory tour, where the phones are made and put together locally. Syed Mashood Hassan, the country director for realme, gave the KOLs a tour of the plant and briefed them on how the devices are put together there. He then amused them by setting up a fun basketball game in Uptown LA, which was followed by a modest meal.

Mega Azadi Ride:

In an effort to innovate within its community, realme partnered with Critical Mass Lahore to organise the first-ever cycling marathon on Pakistan’s Independence Day. The Mega Azadi Ride, a morning bike ride, attracted more than 500 riders from all across Lahore.

Grand Sales:

The final gift for realme fans to enjoy during the 828 Fan Fest events this year is the realme Super Brand Day Sale. During this event, realme fans enjoyed exclusive discounts and offers on the company’s smartphones and AIoTs. On a variety of e-commerce websites, including Daraz and AlfaMall, the spectacular discounts 11.11 and 12.12 went live.

realme 9 4G:

The realme 9 4G, which retailed for just PKR 54,999/-, was realme’s most recent smartphone product in 2022. The realme 9 4G, the most recent model in the realme 9 series, was an all-arounder that drew customers from around the country with its top-notch features. The newest technological marvel from realme challenged people to use it for comfortable, continuous work to enhance both their own performance and the environment around them. You can surely capture the moment with All-Day Clarity thanks to the mid-range photography star’s 108MP AI Triple Ultra-clear camera and a first-in-segment Samsung HM6 Sensor.

Due to its Holographic Ripple Design, which was inspired by the desert, the realme 9 4G also had an amazing look. The realme 9 4G doesn’t limit itself to being characterised by its appearance, either. The most recent version of the tech democratizer was created with a tonne of intriguing features and was engineered for excellent performance.

The camera module in the Realme 9 4G was extremely sophisticated. The new smartphone has a 108MP ProLight camera with incredible quality that offered consumers a smooth and clear photographic experience for both personal and commercial use. With its new realme 9 Series, realme also went all out, announcing a cooperation with Sajal Aly, a prominent figure in Pakistani film and television, as the brand ambassador.

 WhatsApp To Stop Working On These Samsung Devices

It’s hardly surprising that this year, roughly 50 handsets will no longer be able to operate WhatsApp because the messaging service regularly phases out older cell phones. The support for a sizable portion of Android and iOS devices is being phased out by WhatsApp for the second time in the last three months.

Last time, WhatsApp said in October that it will stop supporting the iPhone SE, iPhone 6S, and iPhone 6S Plus, as well as at least 40 Android handsets made by Samsung, Huawei, LG, Sony, ZTE, HTC, Lenovo, and Alcatel.

Do old phones not support Whatsapp?

The Apple iPhone 5 and iPhone 5c are among the roughly 50 phones that WhatsApp has confirmed it would no longer support. Samsung, Huawei, LG, Sony, Lenovo, and ZTE are among the other phone manufacturers on the list.

These phones won’t be supported any longer because they haven’t received any updates in a very long time. It appears that WhatsApp has increased the prerequisites for its software, so devices that don’t run iOS 12 or Android 5.0 Lollipop will not be able to use it.

As of right now, WhatsApp’s FAQ page still states that it works with Android devices running OS 4.1 and later. We’re not sure how accurate the information is as many (if not all) of the phones that will no longer support WhatsApp at the end of the year are powered by Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.

The list which was first published by GizChina, consists primarily of entry-level and mid-range smartphones . To continue using WhatsApp and get new updates, you should definitely switch to a newer phone if you’re using one of these gadgets.

Whatsapp being efficient

It makes sense for WhatsApp to redirect its resources to the areas where they are most needed since the vast majority of these phones have already been terminated. The above-mentioned phones should theoretically no longer be able to operate WhatsApp after December 31. There are certainly workarounds that will enable WhatsApp users to continue using the service on incompatible smartphones, but this only postpones the inevitable.

WhatsApp claims that anytime it makes a decision on what to stop supporting, it considers which hardware and software are the most outdated and have the fewest users. This implies that even if WhatsApp determines that there are still a lot of people using your phone, which runs a much older version of Android, it could still be maintained.

Nevertheless, WhatsApp will do its share and discontinue support for older devices running its app as Apple and Google continue to release new iOS and Android versions. It’s simply another tactic to get customers to upgrade to newer models if they want to keep getting the same level of support as other WhatsApp users.

Upgraded To iOS 16? Here’s What You Need To Do ASAP

If this is your first time using iOS 16, there are three things you should do immediately before exploring all the hidden features or the most bothersome settings in order to enhance your iPhone experience. We’ll explain what these items are and how they may improve your life in this tale.

1. Create a new wallpaper option for your lock screen

The lock screen on iOS 16 has undergone a major revamp by Apple, enabling you to fully personalize a number of aspects, including the date and time, add small widgets to keep track of the weather and the most recent headlines and create numerous wallpaper profiles that you can quickly switch between.

Press anywhere on the locked screen with your finger to personalize your lock screen. When requested to unlock your smartphone, do so. Once you’ve done that, a fresh lock screen interface will show up where you may browse and alter all of your lock screen wallpaper options.

Widgets on the lock screen on iOS 16

To create a new wallpaper, hit the Plus button in the bottom right corner. You can then choose from a variety of Apple wallpapers, including those with emojis, astronomy, weather, and more. Some of these wallpapers come with widgets already installed, but you may easily add them afterward.

If you decide to upload your own photo, try to choose one with something or someone in the foreground. The new depth effect feature, which advances the time behind whatever item is in focus to create a layered type of aesthetic, can be used if the image is adjusted exactly so.

Then, to change the appearance, press any of the lock screen’s components, such as the date and time. You may add teeny transparent widgets to that area of your background by selecting Add Widgets.

2. Create a Focus profile 

Apple released Focus, an updated version of Do Not Disturb, last year. With Focus, you can choose to only receive critical alerts and notifications while blocking everything else. But if you want to lessen distractions on your iPhone, check out and set up iOS 16’s productivity function, which has undergone significant reworking.

Select the profile or profiles you want to configure under Focus in Settings. You can then select which people and apps to receive notifications from inside a Focus profile. You can also choose to hide notification badges, show silenced notifications on your lock screen, and have your lock screen and home screen wallpapers automatically change when your Focus profile is activated.

Furthermore, you may program when your Focus profile should activate (when you go to sleep) and turn it off (when you wake up). You may obtain your sleep data from the Health app and use it to pick an appropriate Focus schedule.

3. Set up iPhoto

There is now a built-in tool in Photos that searches your camera roll for any duplicate pictures and movies if you need to quickly free up some space on your iPhone. This is an excellent opportunity to perform some spring cleaning as well as get rid of files on your iPhone that are eating up space.

Go to the Albums tab under Photos, slide all the way down, and choose Duplicates. To erase all of the duplicate images and videos at once, select Select > Select All > Merge after going through all of your images and movies. You can see the size of each photo or movie at the bottom, so you should prioritize bigger files first.
