It’s almost five months ago OnePlus had announced the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. Now the company is all set to bring the successor of it, which will be called the ‘T’ series flagship from OnePlus. There are a number of specifications and renders are already leaked about the upcoming OnePlus 8T. Let’s check out what are the specs this phone will offer.
As per the leaked specifications, the OnePlus 8T will run OxygenOS 11 out of the box, presumably based on Android 11, and will be powered by a Snapdragon 865 processor. Usually, OnePlus uses the ‘Plus’ versions of Snapdragon’s flagship chipsets for its T-series devices. But this time no ‘Plus’ version will be offered. Regarding the display, this phone will feature a 6.55-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution with a refresh rate of 120Hz. It’s predecessor the OnePlus 8 features a 90Hz display. So, this is definitely an improvement. Lastly, the display will feature a hole-punch type design and we can see the punch-hole cutout in the top-left corner of the phone.
The OnePlus 8T will come into the market with two different RAM/storage variants. One of them will be 8GB + 128GB where the other one will be 12GB + 256GB.

Regarding the selfie section, this phone will offer a 32MP selfie shooter in the front. We’ve got 16MP selfie cameras on both the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro. So, this is also an improvement in the new model.
Regarding the battery, this phone will offer a decent 4,500mAH battery. but, the twist is in the charging as the battery will be charged by a 65W warp charger. from the last few years, we’ve only witnessed up to 30W fast charging in the OnePlus models. Now this will be a huge improvement for the OnePlus. Coming to the buttons and connectivity part. The OnePlus 8T will have its power button and alert slider on the left spine and the volume rocker on the right side. This phone supports a USB Type-C port and loudspeaker grill, while a noise-canceling mic is seen at the top.
As per the reports, the OnePlus 8T might get released by the end of September or the first week of October. There is nothing confirmed about the launch date yet. Similarly, we don’t have any information about the pricing of the phone. But it is expected that the pricing will be higher than the OnePlus 8, which currently starts at Rs 44,999 in India.

LG has launched its innovative dual-screen smartphone – LG Wing, today. The phone features a swiveling display in motion, this rotating phone maybe the start of a new era of dual-screen phones. As the LG Wing has been launched today, so we have got some confirmed specifications of this innovative smartphone. So, let’s check out all those specifications.
If you look at the phone, you can see that the handset is set in a T-shaped form with the top screen horizontally, and the vertical screen size is shrunk, and the horizontal display blocks the top half of the screen. LG has introduced the Wing model with a very attractive and innovative look.
LG Wing

LG Wing
The interesting thing is that, anyone can use the Wing as a regular phone, but once the user pops the main screen horizontally one will get a whole new form factor with its own unique use-cases. LG is betting big on content consumption and attracting the user who loves watching videos on the go.
Due to the secondary display users will not face any interference for the notifications and they are left with a more immersive experience.

Sony has already announced the release of their next-gen console PlayStation 5. The console will be released in late 2020. There has been a lot of hype surrounding this next-gen console.
The day that almost all PlayStation fans have been waiting for has finally arrived as Sony will be officially announcing all the details of its next-gen gaming console on 16th September. Announced via its official blog, Sony will be hosting the event from 1:00 PM PDT.
Sony has already started inviting pre-orders. They are giving a chance to their users with ‘US-based address’ to pre-order and reserve a PS5 console as Sony claims there’s a limited quantity of PS5 available.
According to Bloomberg, the original plan of Sony was to produce 15m units by March 31, 2021. Now only 11m units will be produced following production issues with its custom-designed system-on-chip for the new console.
Sony has come up against manufacturing issues, such as production yields as low as 50% for its SOC, which has cut into its ability to produce as many consoles as it wishes.
While PS5 production is expected to be higher than PS4, when aligned, this issue will hit PS5 supply during 2021.
Production yield issues will always exist, especially at the beginning of a console launch, though this does seem more severe than expected.
Daniel Ahmad further wrote: “Here’s the best way to think of the above. PS5 first six-month production initially much higher than PS4. Now due to yield issues, PS5 production is slightly higher than PS4. So there will still be more supply than PS4 launch, but the real question is how high is demand?”
Microsoft has amazed the world with both of its Xbox Series S and Series X at an attractive pricing of $299 and $499. So, Sony can actually take a price cut to counter Xbox somehow and bring more exclusive games as well.
Key games: Horizon II Forbidden West, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Demon, Souls, Gran Turismo 7, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, Sack Boy A Big Adventure.
DualSense Controller: A new design and two-tone look, reduced weight while retaining a strong battery inside, new adaptive triggers into the L2 and R2 buttons, a new ‘Create’ button
After the 8-2 humiliating defeat against Bayern Munich, Barcelona has gone through a lot of changes. Quique Setien has been removed and replaced by former Barcelona player Ronald Koeman. Koeman was the manager of the Netherlands team before joining the Barcelona camp.
The Netherlands failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup but within 1 year Koeman had built a group of quality players who went all the way to the final of the 2019 UEFA Nations League. He knows the current group of Netherlands player very well and is planning to bring some of them to Camp Nou.
Olympique Lyonnais striker Memphis Depay is one of the favourites of Koeman. He wants to sign the Netherlands international.
So, personal terms between Barcelona and Memphis Depay has already been agreed upon. Barcelona will offer a final transfer fee of €30m [add ons included]. The first official bid will be accepted by Lyon.
More abt Barça moves. – Lautaro talks are over [Inter want to extend his contract]. – Wijnaldum is Koeman’s first choice but complicated deal with #LFC. – Thiago more likely to join Premier League than coming back. – Depay contract agreed days ago will be til June 2024. 🔵🔴 #FCB
Inter’s Lautaro Martinex is out of the transfer market as the Serie A club wants to extend his contract. So, the Netherlands striker will sign a deal until June 2024. The official announcement will be made soon.
On the other hand, it will be difficult for Barcelona to convince Thiago Alcantara to make a comeback as he wants to play in the Premier League. So, Wijnaldum is Koeman’s first choice but it will be a complicated deal.
Barcelona will hope to finish all their transfer business within next week as they will be starting their 2020-21 campaign on 27th September against Villarreal.

It’s been a long time since we saw premium quality wired earphones in a budget range from the popular smartphone brands. Now a few weeks back we got our hands on the Realme Buds Classic and recently we got the Redmi Earphones, so we are eager to make a comparison on both these budget earphones. To remind our readers both the earphones are available in Amazon at Rs.399 ($5.41). Both the headphones have their own specialty and its own back draws, but keeping in mind the price range we can understand all of these.
Realme Buds Classic was launched on 18th August in Amazon along with several other devices in an online launch. Whereas, the Redmi Earphones were launched in India a week ago on September 7. Both the earphones are one of the cheapest earphones a company can make within Rs.400 budget. Though we have the Mi Basic Wired Headset which also comes under this price range, these newcomers are our target of the day.
Now let’s have a look at the specifications of both the earphones.

Design
You can see a lot of differences while comparing the design of both the earphones. Let’s talk about the Realme Buds Classic first. The earphone is the second wired headset from the company and the first one with a half in-ear ear tip. This earphone has a half in-ear design that can fit in your ear properly. Now coming to the control button, the single button is multifunctional. The earphone has a 3.5mm jack and the wires have special stripe design.
The Redmi earphone has an interesting in-ear design with a shiny plastic body. It also has a single but multifunctional control button. The wire of this earphone is smooth and made of rubber. The 3.5mm jack is L shaped.
Comfort
In terms of comfort, there is a huge difference between these two earphones. Let’s talk about the Realme Buds Classic first, this earphone has an old model half-ear design. Now, what is half-ear design? It does not have the plug-in type design like all other present-day earphones and it does not go totally inside the ear tunnel. This design first time feels soothing in-ear, but as time passes the hard plastic oval design of the earphone does not even feel comfortable thus starts hurting inside the ear. This is the only disadvantage of this kind of design.
Coming to the Redmi Earphones it has a plug-in design like normal earphones these days, and this one fits perfectly in the ear and doesn’t hurt even after wearing for a long time. The rubber ear tips are provided with 3 steps adjustable sizes and are very smooth. It fits according to the size.
Controls
To make it clear both the earphones are very basic and have a minimal design and built quality is also maintained overall. Both the earphones will have a single button control which is multifunctional as well. A single press will receive a call, play/pause music. Double click will play the next song, whereas, a triple-click will play the previous music. A simple press and hold will also help you to end a call seamlessly.
Usage
Wired earphones are really long-lasting and from the built quality of both the Realme Buds Classic and Redmi Earphones are extremely good for this price range and if handled properly it can be used for a long term. From day to day usage of both the earphones it can be said that they both are pretty durable and can be used without any tangles in mind. Though the Redmi Earphone is more prone to get tangled still it is a good choice.
Audio Quality
The audio quality of Relme Buds Classic is really good, even with a half-ear design the 14.2mm audio driver is way more loud and dynamic. The design of the earphone manages to accommodate a large driver for an earphone, whereas, other earphones can hardly feature 10mm dynamic audio drivers. The quality of the audio is quite crisp and soothing at the same time. The earphone does not physically support a bit of minimum noise cancellation because of its design, but the sound compensates with that giving a nice audio experience.
Redmi Earphones do feature a 10mm dynamic audio driver and the in-ear design provides a very distinct audio quality. The audio is not very loud or high pitched rather soothing similar to the Realme Buds Basic earphones. The in-ear audio experience is really good after using it for so many days on a regular basis. The adjustable ear tips help to fit perfectly in your ears and will give a physical noise cancellation which is really a plus point for this earphone.
In The Call
Now coming to one of the most important aspects of earphones as we get an in-line microphone and this helps while talking with someone in the call. The mic of both the earphones is really good and keeping the price point in mind it is really great that brands are providing details in such small things. The person on the other side of the does not face in distortion or any kind of disturbance while talking. The quality is not compromised even in this price range.

Pros of Both
The sound quality of both the earphones is extremely good keeping in mind the price point. The design and built quality are also premiums for both of them. Realme Buds Classic has a very unique texture in the wire and thus makes it feel different from others. Whereas the Redmi Earphones has the mic and button system on the wire of the right-side earpiece, this helps to talk without holding the mic near your mouth and the sound remains clear on the other side of the call. The L shaped 3.5mm jack of Redmi Earphones helps a lot as it saves the space and also assures the longevity of the wire from bending.
Cons for Both
Realme Buds Classic has the major drawback for its earpiece that does not properly fit in the ear and starts hurting after wearing it for a long time. Realme Buds Classic also has the mic and control button panel at the junction.
Redmi Earphones has no such back draws except it tangles a lot and it becomes difficult to untangle it most of the time because of its rubber wires, which creates high friction while applying tension to untangle it.
Price and Availability
Realme Buds Classic earphone is available are Amazon India at only Rs.399. There is only two colour option – Black and White. Here is the link: https://amzn.to/32xj6VL
Redmi Earphone is available are Amazon India at only Rs.399. There is three colour option – Red, Blue, and Black. Here is the link: https://amzn.to/35Bw5HT
Nvidia, the global leader in Graphic card designing, has officially announced its acquisition of ARM. Many in the tech industry believe that the acquisition of ARM will give Nvidia an unfair favor in the chip market. The deal will also limit competition in the market.
However, the merging of both brands has been defended by the CEO of both parties. In an official statement, the companies said that their work in the chip market has just begun.
In recent years, ARM has become an important part of data center servers and laptops. ARM’s chips and instruction sets are a key part of smartphones, autonomous vehicles, and billions of sensors.
ARM has been termed as the Switzerland of the semiconductor industry. The company has licensed its technology to hundreds of companies. But it has never been competitive with any of them.
Nvidia’s acquisition of ARM stands to threaten the very meaning of “Switzerland of Semi-conductor industry”.
ARM has been a major chip supplier for many big names in the tech industry. Companies like Qualcomm and Intel are direct competitors of Nvidia. This deal has raised concerns among them that Nvidia will be favored with ARM’s latest designs when they are released in the market.
Apple has never embraced any Nvidia technology. But it relies on ARM to create powerful processors for its iPhone and iPads.
Largest cloud-computing providers like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft use ARM-based chips to run its online services. They also use Nvidia’s GPU to accelerate its artificial intelligence processing. This acquisition stands to favor Nvidia in the server technology.
China is an important market for ARM. Its acquisition by Nvidia will put it under the control of a US company. This further stands to increase trade tensions among China and the US.
While Nvidia stands to benefit from this deal, ARM’s china business may be staring at an uncertain future.
