A few days ago we came across a leaked shared by @MaxJmb commonly known as Max J., a well-known leakster who claimed that the new OnePlus 8Z will have a punch-hole camera at the top middle of the display. That is for the first time we got an idea of how the phone will look like. Later on, a few other sources tipped some of its specs.
Recently another source revealed the leaked image of OnePlus 8Z and now Max has also revealed another interesting feature. The 8Z was previously rumored to come with MediaTek chipset but Max confirmed that the phone may come with Snapdragon 765 SoC with 5G connectivity.

The phone is rumored to launch with the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro in the same launch event, but it got delayed due to COVID-19. The will now launch within a few months or maybe a few weeks. The design of the phone is made different from OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro. The punch hole placement in both the later devices is at the top left corner but here we can see the punch-hole is placed at the top center of the phone.
The OnePlus 8Z is the lite version of the OnePlus 8 series and will also be liter in the price segment. Until now nothing is official and we have not seen any kind of official announcement claiming the launch of this device, but the device is in development and will launch soon. So we have to wait until any further news surfaces.
Gary Neville used to share the dressing room with Cristiano Ronaldo at Manchester United. According to the former Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo is targeting Pele’s goalscoring record.
Neville thinks that Ronaldo, who currently plays for Juventus, his drive is ‘out of the world’. He has also talked about their time together at United.
Gary Neville told to Sky Sports: “Sir Alex Ferguson and Carlos Queiroz, I think it’s important to put Carlos Queiroz in the category with Sir Alex, they were both champions of him, they both believed in him.”
“I think that Ronaldo came back from the World Cup that summer it was like everything had changed. His maturity and his decision-making, which was a big thing, his experience, his physical attributes had completely changed overnight. He went from someone who, if you look at his early pictures at Manchester United, he was scrawny, really thin, wiry, didn’t look very strong.”
“All of a sudden, I think it was after that 2006 World Cup, he came back like a super-middleweight boxer. His body had just completely transformed, he was absolutely incredible. From a strength point of view and a plyometric point of view, the ability to leap, the ability to score with his head, the ability to change direction, everything seems to fall into place. It was just maturity, physically, mentally, everything happened to him.”
“It was brilliant to watch, there was a point I remember going into the gym after one training session and speaking to Mike Clegg [United’s strength and conditioning coach] who worked very hard with Cristiano physically in the gym and saying to him, ‘I don’t know what he’s going to do next’.”
“You didn’t know where he was going to be defensive, you didn’t know when he was going to release the ball, players in the middle of the box didn’t know when he was going to cross it. It was just erratic. But they had great faith in him, Sir Alex Ferguson and Carlos Queiroz, and they believed in him, put him forward in front of players who had greater reputations at the time and he developed into something brilliant.”
“His drive was out of this world to become the best in the world. He’s one of the very few players that I’ve played with that would publicly announce that the individual trophies were important to him. He just wanted to be the very, very best in the world and it’s so important to him.”
“It’s an obsession. Absolute obsession with scoring goals. Applying himself every single day, being the fittest he can possibly be. I think he’s lifted his professionalism every single year and progressed.”
“Jamie [Carragher] mentioned before about James Milner wanting to play into his late 30s and 40s. I think he [Ronaldo] has a plan to go on and take over Pele’s record. I genuinely believe he wants to go on and beat Pele’s numbers.”
“That’s where I think he’s at in his mind, he wants to be the greatest of all time, that is his sole purpose, understanding that along the way if he is the greatest of all time, the teams that he plays for will win trophies and be successful.”

Many people find it challenging to bet on cricket but still want to have fun because betting on a platform like BetGold is enjoyable. Cricket in India is a famous game, and if you get it right, you can just turn a profit as well as have lots of fun. The trick is always finding a reliable betting platform, then take time to learn the game as we are going to show you.
We are going to show you the most prolific cricket betting odds and lines explained as below:
• Double chance bets
Double Chance Bets, just as the name suggests, means that you are wagering on two possibilities, which can be almost to have a sure bet. It means you acknowledge the opponent team can put up a spirited fight and manage a draw, but you still want your team to win. It is the best odd as it spreads risk.
• Three-way betting
If you want every cricket match to be a payday for you, then you need to go the Three-Way Betting. It is the simplest as you are basically wagering on a team to win, lose, or draw in that particular match.
• Opening Partnership Betting
If you want to bet on Opening Partnership Betting, you’ll have to gauge and predetermine that the total number of runs won’t exceed a specific number or won’t be less than a certain number. In other words, it is an over/under bet wagered on the possibility of a total number of predetermined runs. It is a simple odd to wager against, especially if you are an ardent fan.
• First Dismissal Betting
First Dismissal Betting is another easy odd as you only need to concentrate on two players to make the right prediction. First Dismissal Betting simply means you get to win if you correctly predict the player whose wicket will be taken first. Well, if you’ve been into matches before, you will concur with me that you only need to focus on the first and second batsmen.
• Any Century
Any Century is the easiest odd to beat as all you need is spot a batsman you believe will score a 100 or 200, and you are in to go! It is a high-staking odd, especially if you are sure about your batsman. This type of bet can be placed either before the match or in-play of the game.
• Top Batsman Betting
Lastly, there is the Top Batsman Betting, which can happen in two different ways. You can decide to bet on a specific team or bet on the whole match. You need to have thorough knowledge about the cricketers in the lineup. If you go with the first option, it can be easier to win because it isn’t that hard to tell who will be the top batsman of a particular team. However, the odds may not be much. As for the latter, the odds are high, but the risks are also high. Now you know and understand the most common cricket odds and lines. All you need to do is build up a stake to increase your chances of successful betting. Also, don’t forget to bet with a plan and stay disciplined throughout.

POCOFONE F1 was one of the best phones at its time with the leading chipset and competitive price range. The successor of the F1 is around the corner and might unveil in the upcoming months or maybe a few weeks.
The global twitter handle of the company is recently active and tweeting about #WakeUpPOCO. This can indicate the launch of the new successor of the POCO F1. The company can launch a whole new series of the POCO F2.
A specific report claims that the POCO smartphone will be limited to 4G LTE connectivity. So until now, any kind of high hopes may not go along with this smartphone. The image is extracted from the TKDN certification in Indonesia, which mentions the code name of the smartphone and the connectivity status of the smartphone.
The smartphone is codenamed as M2004J11G which matches the previous POCO F1 and from this, it is clear that the new smartphone will be another POCO device that will feature 4G LTE connectivity.
This can also happen that the smartphone will feature 4G connectivity in some specific markets due to demands and may feature 5G connectivity in the rest of the markets. The 4G connectivity can also indicate the lower price range of the smartphone that will be featured in the vanilla version and the Pro version may normally feature 5G connectivity.
We came across this image from a well-known leakster @Sudhanshu1414 commonly known as Sudhanshu Ambhore. The leakster also revealed the European pricing of the POCO F2 Pro that goes as – 6GB + 128GB variant for €649 and the 8GB + 256GB variant for €749.
This pricing also suggests that the phone is going to be expensive as it nearly starts from $718. However, this pricing is still not the final listing and it can change and will definitely vary for different countries.
Reports suggest HTC is still alive and is working on HTC Desire 20 Pro. Famous leakster @evleaks has shared the schematic of the phone and it looks quite promising. The phone is codenamed as “Bayamo”. The phone will follow the recent trend and will have a punch-hole design during the final launch.
The phone has a simple design with a punch-hole camera at the front and quad-camera setup at back. If the patent schematic is correct then the phone will come with a flat-screen display unlike the curved screen trend nowadays.
According to reports and Geekbench the phone will feature Snapdragon 660 (or 665), which was connected to 6GB of RAM and will support Android 10. Though it is still not final which chipset will be used in the device, as the reports suggest the chipset is not up to the mark for a current generation smartphone especially in a Pro model.
The phone can also feature a fingerprint scanner at the back of the device. From the image the power button and the volume rockers are visible on the right side of the device. The final design of the smartphone can be different.
Intel is losing its control over the desktop CPU market for over a year now and that includes a lot of reasons. With specific to the newly launched 10th Gen Comet Lake-S desktop CPUs, I would discuss the bitter truths of the blue team’s platform off lately.
Some of its pros remain as Intel has been the champion in making CPUs for ages now but with technological advancements it has lost some of its grounds to its arch rival AMD.
I will not directly do a face off between the two but lay some general reasons why Intel is making things harder for general users to prefer its CPUs:
via The Verge
It’s 2020, still the same old 14 nm archiecture?
One of the biggest frustrations with Intel you might have is it’s still using the age-old 14 nm process when the whole industry is shifting to 10 nm or 7 nm process, even 5 nm process will make its way next year if everything goes fine.
In this scenario, Intel is still clinging on to its old tech and just using its ‘tic-toe’ scheme to making newer generations of CPUs. Obviously using an older node will not increase efficiency or power draw and will bring no “significant” performance uplift.
Also older architectures increases power consumption, gives rise to many security flaws, AMD jumped off in 2017 with 14 nm and shifted its gear to newer nodes every year. The switch to 7 nm changed its fortune overnight and the industry is widely adapting its tech, its revolutionary Zen 2 architecture is making the sole difference.
Intel is missing on this front, they are not doing anything “revolutionary”, fans gave choices these days to switch between so people understand what’s trending and what’s not. Even mobile SoCs are adapting to lower process nodes to achieve better results.
Another generation, another new socket
The biggest flaw Intel is forcing to its users is adapting to newer sockets with every generation of motherboards. This increase costs to upgrade your CPU with each generation which Intel does never understand, this year too they’ve announced the new LGA 1200 socket.
All of the new 10th Generation Intel chips require new motherboards like the Z490 for high-end, B460 for mainstream, and H410 for budget users. The costlier Z490 boards will launch first with the cheaper motherboards to follow soon.
So if you want to upgrade your Core i7-9700K powered PC to achieve an average performance boost of around 15% by getting hold of the Core i7-10700K, you have to spend half of the cost of upgrading your machine to get some more frames per second.
I am not saying bringing newer tech is bad but keeping cross-compatibility with the previous generation of motherboards help users to easily upgrade its CPUs later, people cannot just make new PC builds every year? People are not billionaires Intel, think logically.
Why the focus remains only on gaming?
Intel has been pushing its limits on single-core frequency just to improve its gaming performance. But until now they were putting limits to their cores and threads and as we know most of the creative applications use more cores and threads, professional workloads require high performance CPUs.
Here’s where AMD’s cheaper solutions with more cores and threads are making the difference, games only use max four cores at a time whereas professional works like video encoding, rendering, editing, developing complex applications and games require more horsepower.
I genuinely appreciate Intel’s approach of adding more cores and threads but in this case AMD’s beefier chips like Ryzen 9 3900X or Ryzen 9 3950X with huge amount of compute performance give extra benefits to users who require it. Until now, no one could have think get so much horsepower all at once but yes they can do on desktop these days.
AMD’s Threadripper CPUs perform even better for humoungous workloads at suitable price points. Even though Intel claims to provide better professional performance this time, but still AMD’s extra cores and threads along with efficient 7 nm process and PCIe Gen 4 advantage will tempt users to opt for the Red team.
Pricing still favours AMD
Intel’s pricing of the new 10th Gen Comet Lake-S desktop CPUs are just but its motherboard and cooler disadvantages make things even worse. AMD’s commitment to AM4 socket is driving more and more users to them with no hassle during the upgrade and Intel should think likewise.
The blue team might say they’ve reduced the price significantly, like the Core i9-9900K successor, the Core i9-10900K is $11 less than the predecessor with 2 more cores and threads. Intel is going head-to-head with AMD after a year with similar price points but the downside is the AMD Ryzen 3000 prices will decrease even more.
AMD’s new Ryzen 3 3100 and 3300X are just superb for the entry-level enthusiasts so in coming days the cheaper B550 motherboards will arrive and so will the Zen 3 based Ryzen 4000 desktop processors at Q4 of this year most likely.
So even if Intel has a few months, where people are struggling in lockdown across the globe, to be happy soon AMD will bounce back.

Tottenham Hotspurs sacked Mauricio Pochettino in November 2019 as he was unable to deliver a trophy during his time at the helm and the club was struggling in the bottom half of the table this season. They appointed Jose Mourinho in his place.
Pochettino had spent five years at Tottenham. He led them to top-four Premier League finishes in four seasons and also reached the Champions League final last year.
He is now without any club and has been linked to a return to the Premier League with Newcastle United, who are set for a change of ownership. But Tottenham Hotspur still remains “deep” in his heart.
Pochettino said to BT Sport: “It was an amazing journey that finished in a way that of course, no one wants to finish. But deep in my chest, in my soul, in my heart, I am sure that we will cross again. For sure, from now since the day I left the club, my dream is to one day be back and to try and finish the work we didn’t finish.”
“We were so close to winning the right trophies. The Premier League and Champions League, we were very close. We stopped this way now.”
“Of course I am looking forward to moving on and I’m so motivated for the next project. But, deep inside, I would like one day to be back [at Spurs]. The club is special, the fans are so special.”
He further added: “Maybe in five years, maybe in 10 years, but before I die I want to manage Tottenham again and try, if possible, to win one title. I want to feel what it means to win one title with Tottenham because the fans are amazing.”
“All the love we received was amazing and that [winning a title] is a good opportunity for all the love they showed us from day one.”

The tech giant has a wide variety of apps in its plethora of Google applications, but it failed in one perspective during this lockdown period i.e. video conferencing. Here’s where Zoom made headlines and made it easier for people to host video conferences but due to its vulnerabilities, no one is using it for security purposes.
Even though Google had its own solution for video conferencing solution i.e. Hangouts app but it is splitting it to two new distinct platforms – Google Chat and Google Meet. This new Google Meet application, as the name implies, is the heir to all of the video-conferencing features.
Google Meet will be focussed more for professional purposes, so it released it to users with G Suite accounts or those having a subscription. However, Google has that its new application is now free for everyone with Google accounts i.e. all the Gmail users.
The key motive of Google Meet is obviously to host more people in a video conference without having to sacrifice your privacy. According to Google, with Google Meet you can securely connect, collaborate, and celebrate from anywhere.
With Google Meet, users can safely create and join high-quality video meetings with up to 250 people at once. Much like Zoom, you can host unlimited meetings, which remain encrypted in transit and proactive anti-abuse measures. You can even an add link to video conferences directly synced to Google Calendar invites.
To help you during your meeting, Google has some interesting features for you like sharing your screen to present documents, slides, and other things. Much like Zoom, with just share a link you can invite guests to join with one click from a desktop web browser or the Google Meet mobile app.
Another exciting feature is the real-time captions powered by Google speech-to-text technology which generates captions of what you are saying in real-time for easier understanding on the receiver’s end.
For companies who want to have some more advanced features, Google also offers an Essentials version including phone numbers, larger meetings, meeting recording and moderation controls, etc.
Jordi Masip was at Camp Nou till 2017. He was Marc-Andre ter Stegen’s deputy in Barcelona. But he didn’t get enough playtime and decided to join Real Valladolid.
Masip has now cemented his place under the Valladolid’s goal but he still follows Ter Stegen, who celebrated his 28th birthday today.
Masip told Stats Perform: “Well, I’m clearly leaning towards Ter Stegen. For me, he is clearly the best because he encompasses all facets of the game.”
“He’s the most complete for my taste. He’s the most complete with the feet and with his game in all areas. His performance has been reflected in Barca. He was very young when he arrived and has been progressing. For me, he’s the best right now.”
He further added: “Oblak is also in great shape, he is another great goalkeeper. They are two goalkeepers who are in the teams they have to be, they fit perfectly with their respective teams. They’re two great ones. They help all the other goalkeepers to look and improve.”
“I also like Alisson and Ederson, the Liverpool and City guys. They came in young, with a lot of desire, they are good and their performances have been reflected in the results of their teams.”
Marc-Andre ter Stegen is having a remarkable career until now. He has won 14 trophies for club and country – 13 for Barcelona and the Confederations Cup for Germany – since leaving Borussia Monchengladbach in 2014.
