0

Apple launches the new MacBook Air on November 17th. This is one of the first laptops which features Apple’s own ARM-based CPUs, designed for Macs. From the outside, the laptop is nearly identical but after opening it up, you will notice some modifications in the keyboard.

Spotlight, Do Not Disturb, and Dictation, these are the new function keys which are added to MacBook Air. The laptop is powered by the new M1 processor of Apple. The M1 is similar to the processor of the iPhone 12 and iPad Air. Last time they changed the keyboard to add Touch ID for securing payment details and passwords.

Observing the new changes in the keyboard, an employee of Bloomberg, Mark Gurman shared an image of the keyboard by saying that, “The new MacBook Air has updated keyboard function keys, adding Spotlight, Dictation, and Do Not Disturb – replaces Launchpad and Keyboard brightness.”

Apple removed the brightness key along with the launchpad from the keyboard which was very helpful to open, find, and organize apps.

Does any user actually use the launchpad to launch apps? I don’t think so. That is not a big deal without the launchpad. Also, does anyone need to adjust the brightness of the keyboard? Let’s see, how the experience goes with the new three function key of MacBook Air.

We have to wait for feedback from the users. Let’s see how the user reacts to the new keyboard. You can have a MacBook by paying INR 92,900.

New Samsung Z Foldable smartphone might be in the works with a surround display and a sliding rear camera

0

Back in July this year, Samsung has filed a 70-page patent document that describes a smartphone with surround displays and a sliding rear camera setup. Finally, after two and a half months, the patent got approved and published on October 29. This report is clearly giving an indication that Samsung might be working on a new smartphone which will be included in the Samsung Z foldable series in the future. A surround display and a sliding rear camera will be the two main highlights of this phone.

As per the patent documentation, a surrounding display is nothing but a display on all the sides of the phone, including the edges. That means. it is quite obvious that there will be a curved display. The edges are lateral and they feature smaller flexible screens. The rear panel of this phone features a normal flat screen. Normally, all those screens are separate, but they work together to form a large wrap-around display. So, this is mainly a fancy display setup with exciting functionalities. We can adjust the resolution dynamically as well to reduce power consumption.

Apart from it, the surrounding display comes with a transparent case. There will be no physical buttons. Regarding the built quality, the case is made of acrylic or transparent polymer materials. In place of any physical buttons, the company uses a piezoelectric sensor inside it, by which it can measure the pressure. Whenever this sensor will sense a certain amount of pressure, it will generate an electric pulse that turns on the screen. A wireless charging facility will also be there. Not only this but also this phone is about to come with a built-in electronic SIM, an in-display selfie camera, and an in-display fingerprint reader.

In terms of the rear camera module, there will be a sliding mechanism. This phone features two different slices. That means, the main camera can be activated by sliding the back slice downwards. Users can also take selfies from the rear camera, credit goes to the rear panel display. AN in-display selfie camera is also there. This phone will determine which is display is been using more by its users, it will turn off the other display in order to conserve energy.

As per the pricing, nothing is confirmed yet by the company. But is quite obvious that this phone will carry a gigantic price range as it is carrying almost every modern technology in it.

After a 30 year long wait, Liverpool finally managed to get their hands on the Premier League trophy at the end of the 19/20 campaign. However, the start to their title defense has been an absolute nightmare. 

First, their best player in Virgil Van Dijk was sidelined for the season after a dreadful challenge by Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. 

To make things worse, Fabinho suffered an injury in the Champions League whilst filling in as a centre back and doing a pretty good job of it.

This weekend against Manchester City, Trent Alexander-Arnold suffered a calf injury that forced him off the pitch. He is reported to be out for about a month. 

The latest to join the injured list at the club is Joe Gomez, who at one point of time, was the only fit first-team centre back. 

The England defender suffered a serious injury while training with the national team. The extent of the injury is set to be confirmed by Gareth Southgate in a press conference on Wednesday evening.

The defense is not the only part of the Liverpool squad facing an injury crisis, as new boy Thiago Alcantara and Naby Keita are also sidelined with injuries. 

The Merseyside club are still at the top of the table following the 1-1 draw against rivals Manchester City and have managed to find their feet after being thrashed 7-2 against Aston Villa.

However, the latest blow to Jurgen Klopp’s team will surely make things a lot more difficult for the German coach this season. 

While the odds seem to be stacked against the reigning Premier League champions, Klopp will have to turn to the youngsters and utilise the full depth of the squad whilst possibly tweaking the style of play to cope with the hectic schedule and the injury crisis at hand.

Memphis Depay move to Barcelona stalled till summer of 2021

Barcelona boss Ronald Koeman publicly acknowledged that Lyon forward Memphis Depay was at the top of the former Netherlands coach’s shortlist. 

While there were talks conducted all summer, and acknowledging of approaches from both parties, no move went through during the transfer window. 

The main reason behind it was Barcelona’s financial condition and the fact that they needed to sell before they bought any big players. 

Sergino Dest and Miralem Pjanic were the only two new arrivals at Camp Nou this summer. Ronald Koeman has been widely in favour of using the talented players already at his disposal in the form of Ansu Fati, Griezmann, Ousmane Dembele and Pedri alongside Leo Messi. 

While Memphis would have added a bold new dimension to Barcelona’s squad, it seems unlikely that the club will be able to sign the Dutch international during the winter transfer window either.

The reason being Lyon President Jean-Michel Aulas saying:

“I think that he can bring Lyon into a dimension that everyone wants to see for Lyon… I was the first to say that he would not leave for Barcelona. 

“Nobody listened to me at the time during the window because everyone thought that he would leave… We absolutely have to succeed this season. We started badly, but we have the capacity to do better, so he will stay.”

Speaking to RMC Sport, the Lyon President made it clear that Memphis Depay would not be leaving France mid-season.

In addition, he further said that no move would go through until the summer. Lyon are currently fifth in Ligue 1, having accumulated 17 points from 10 league games played. They are 7 points behind league leaders Paris Saint-Germain. 

Being one of their most important players, Memphis Depay will be key to Lyon’s season, and could be the difference maker to their Champions League ambitions next season. The club are in a dire situation and will do anything to hold on to their talisman till the end of the campaign.

Barcelona pass deadline on wage reduction talks, but no solution in sight

The tumult continues to unfold in Camp Nou as Barcelona have been unable to reach an agreement with their players regarding the proposed wage reduction. 

The financial crisis was waiting in the wings even before the dismissal of former President Josep Maria Bartomeu. A wage reduction was in talks due to the debt increasing two-fold for the Catalonian club.

Barcelona are currently over €400 million in debt to banks. 

New contracts were recently announced for Frenkie De Jong, Gerard Pique, Marc Andre Ter-Stegen and Clement Lenglet. Reports coming out of Spain indicate that the four players have agreed on a temporary adjustment in their pay package owing to the financial crisis and that they will be reimbursed in the future. 

However, not all players have been as cooperative as the ones mentioned above. Some even signed a petition in the locker room to protest against the wage reduction that the board have put forth.

Esport3 reported last week that the deadline for the wage reduction talks had been extended. However, no significant conclusion has come about this week either. 

The players have argued saying that the wage reduction should not be the same for everyone and that it should be carried out in a tiered fashion. In addition, they have also questioned why the basketball players are not having wage reductions while the football B-team are being asked to. 

El Clasico Barcelona Real Madrid Barcelona pass deadline on wage reduction talks, but no solution in sight

Barcelona’s current wage bill amounts to a mind-boggling €230 million per year without including the bonuses that the majority of the players are entitled to for achieving personal milestones across the season. 

The club is in a dire situation and will have to find a way to reduce at least 30% of their current wage bill. Should they fail to do so, Barcelona will be face to face with bankruptcy. The pandemic will do the club no favours and will make it even harder for the club to deal with the situation with funds becoming scarce.

Qualcomm finally has obtained the license to sell chips to Huawei

0

In this year of pandemic and other international issues, the ongoing dispute between China and the US seamlessly going on. For such kinds of issues, most of the smartphone manufacturers (mainly Chinese) have faced a huge amount of losses. Huawei is one of those. The United States has banned the trade has banned trade between the semiconductor chip manufacturer Qualcomm and the Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei. A few days ago, Huawei has applied for a license to resume business with Huawei to the US government.

As per a recent report from China, the permission has been finally granted by the US by which Qualcomm can again start its business with Huawei and can send its semiconductor chipsets to the Chinese smartphone manufacturer, which is very important to increase the market of the 5G network globally. On the other hand, if the Honor brand is off the shoulder of the Chinese company, then Qualcomm will manage to fulfill the chipset demands of Huawei. As of now, the US-based chipset making company does not have the needed capacity to fulfill the demand of Huawei.

In terms of sales, Honor has given a report of around CNY100 billion ($15 billion). As Qualcomm is an America-based chip-making company, that’s why it always requires a special license in order to work with any non-American company, just like this time with Huawei. As per the sources, almost 300 companies have applied for permission from the US to business with Huawei. But only 100 of them have been granted the permission and Qualcomm seems to be one of them.
