  • Huawei’s Kirin 9000 chips to power P50 and Mate 50 series smartphones?

    Huawei’s Kirin 9000 chips to power P50 and Mate 50 series smartphones?

    Huawei, the Chinese multinational technology company, has been one of the most severely affected companies due to restrictions caused by the US government. These restrictions have come after the long tussle going on between the two national governments due to the trade policies.

    HiSilicon Kirin 9000, the chipset from Huawei, has been launched recently. This HiSilicon Kirin 9000 can be the last flagship SoC from the Chinese company for some time. The smartphones from the Huawei P40 series are powered by HiSilicon Kirin 9000 SoC. Earlier, people expected that this series to be the last with this SoC but the new reports floating in tells us another story.

    Huawei executive has stated that a large chunk of these mobile processors are saved so that they can be used in the future smartphone of companies. They might feature in the upcoming P50 series and Mate 50 series. Kirin 9000 and Kirin 9000e chipsets both are reported to support the smartphones coming in the Huawei P50 series.

    The good news from the company’s side is that they haven’t stopped investing in research and development (R&D). This is very important for any smartphone company. Huawei is majorly known for its magnificent camera performance and they have done well to improve it over the years.

    People expect the new smartphone series to come in different variants. The most standard variant can have a refresh rate of 90Hz whereas the luxury variant can have a refresh rate of 120Hz. Similarly, the high-end variant can support 135W charging as compared to the low-end’s 66W fast charging and 50W wireless charging.

    Huawei is also expected to continue using the Leica lens. The P50 series and Mate 50 series are expected to have similar camera features but the former smartphone might have better zoom capabilities. Do you think that the change in the leadership of the US government can ease restrictions placed on Huawei? Or will the democrats be more strict and make the business atmosphere tougher for the leading Chinese company? Let us know in the comments below!

  • Exynos 2100 is a worthy competitor of Snapdragon 888 shows Galaxy S21 Ultra Speed Test

    Exynos 2100 is a worthy competitor of Snapdragon 888 shows Galaxy S21 Ultra Speed Test

    Samsung Exynos 2100 has been launched recently and the first smartphone to feature has got be the Galaxy S21 Ultra. It also features the Snapdragon 888 for US customers as well, so previously there was a huge difference in performance between Exynos and Snapdragon chipsets but things have finally changed in 2021.

    The South Korean giant has taken a leap forward in terms of performance as we did a detailed comparison between the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and the Samsung Exynos 2100. However, although all seems good on paper how does Exynos 2100 perform against Snapdragon 888 in real-world tests?

    Exynos 2100 is a worthy competitor of Snapdragon 888 shows Galaxy S21 Ultra Speed Test

    A new speed test conducted by SpeedTest G shows how the Galaxy S21 Ultra with both different chipset competes against each other. As you see in the test the Exynos 2100 is very close to the Snapdragon 888 when it comes to real-world scenarios.

    If you do a breakdown of the strengths of both chipsets you’ll see the Samsung Exynos 2100 taking less time in CPU side of things, while the Snapdragon 888 with its Adreno 660 GPU is leading against Samsung’s 14-core Mali-G78 GPU. There’s only a difference of 8 seconds and this shows how Samsung has improved in leaps and bounds.

    I bet with the partnership with AMD, surely, Samsung’s next chipset will have a powerful graphics to compete Snapdragon chipsets. You can see the detailed comparison video here:

  • Google has Threatened to Disable its search engine in Australia in response to a Landmark Law

    Google has Threatened to Disable its search engine in Australia in response to a Landmark Law

    Google threatened to disable its search service for Australias unless the government changed landmark legislation where Google is forced to pay local publishers for news. The legislation was introduced last year and is one of the most aggressive moves globally to check the power of the US tech giant.

    Google Australia managing director Mel Silva described the law as “unworkable” and warned a Senate committee in Canberra on Friday that the world-first media law would undermine the functioning of the internet. She opposed the condition that Google pay media companies for displaying excerpts of articles in search results.

    This is Google’s most powerful threat, yet as the digital giant tries to stem a flow of regulatory action worldwide, such a radical step would see its rivals taking over an entirely developed market. According to the local competition regulator, at least 94% of online searches in Australia go through the Alphabet Inc. unit.

    “We don’t respond to threats,” Australia Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Friday, according to Bloomberg. “Australia makes our rules for things you can do in Australia. That’s done in our parliament. It’s done by our government. And that’s how things work here in Australia.”

    Along with Google, Facebook Inc. is also targeted by the legislation. The social media platform also opposes the law and reiterated at Friday’s hearing that it is considering blocking Australians from sharing news on Facebook if the law is pushed through.

    The legislation is designed in a way that it supports the local media industry, including Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp., which has struggled to adapt to the digital economy. Senator Andrew Bragg accused Google of trying to blackmail Australians and policymakers as the tech giant’s tougher stance drew rebukes from lawmakers at the hearing.

    “If this version of the code were to become law, it would give us no real choice but to stop making Google Search available in Australia,” Silva told a panel of senators. She described the law as an “untenable financial and operational precedent.”

    But Google has faced similar requests in other countries and it has adapted to it without cutting off the search engine. The California-based company stopped showing news results from European publishers for French users on search results last year as they were urged to pay for content by local regulators, and then on Thursday, the firm said it reached a deal to pay media publishers in the country. In 2014, following new copyright legislation, it shuttered Google News in Spain.

    ‘Control and Power’

    Johan Lidberg, an associate professor at Melbourne’s Monash University called Google a corporate bully, “It’s about control and power,” Lidberg, who specializes in media and journalism, said. “They’re signaling to other regulators they’ll have a fight on their hands if they do this.”

    Silva proposed Google’s News Showcase was proposed by Silva as an alternative to the Australian legislation, in this arrangement, the company pays select media outlets to display curated content. Senator Bragg said it was impossible to assess its value to the local market since the service isn’t available in Australia.

    “All we’ve got today is your threats and your blackmail,” he told Silva.

    Whereas in the single-core, the Ryzen 9 5980HS edges out with the Intel Core i7-11370H, and the higher boost frequencies shall help in gaming a lot in all the upcoming processors. We cannot wait to test out these new gaming processors in action; an exciting year lies in & ahead of 2021!!

  • Genesis develops Trade Capture Application, FX Prime, in partnership with XP Investments

    Genesis develops Trade Capture Application, FX Prime, in partnership with XP Investments

    Genesis Global Technology, a UK capital markets software provider, has launched an application named FX Prime, a trade capture application for foreign exchange and rates trading desks with prime broker integration.

    The application captures voice business and streams the trade activity to the prime broker directly; it supports FX options trade capture for single- and multi-leg strategies, as well as FX forwards, FX spot, FX non-deliverable forwards (NDFs), FX swap, FX NDF swaps, and interest rate swaps deals.

    The application was developed in partnership with XP Investments on the Genesis low-code application platform (LCAP). XP investments is a US-based subsidiary of Brazilian broker-dealer XP Investimentos, which selected Genesis as its LCAP provider last year.

    “FX Prime is further evidence not only of how they understand our FX trading desk requirements but can design, develop, and seamlessly integrate FX Prime with our existing technology stack in less than a month,” said Eduardo Hargreaves, head of FX and rates agency desk at XP Investments, according to The Trade.

    “We have been able to proactively adapt to the changing market requirements and deploy at speed. This delivery capability has a direct impact on our ability not only to serve existing clients but also attract and win new business, and Genesis is most definitely a strategic technology partner for us that adds tremendous value for the firm and our clients.”

    The London-based company’s LCAP gained backing from major institutions in recent months. US investment bank Citi is the most recent investment; Citi plans to deploy LCAP for innovation projects.

    “Every investment firm is under pressure not only to optimize their operating processes but also to deploy new products and services to clients that are demanding innovation and digital capabilities,” said Stephen Murphy, chief executive officer at Genesis. 

    “This is exactly what our LCAP platform is designed to deliver, and we are delighted to be playing our part as XP Investments serves its clients across North America and Latin America.”

    Genesis Technology’s Stock Zoomed 128% in the Last Three Years

    The interaction between a company’s share price and its earnings per share (EPS) is one way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time.

    44% per year EPS growth was found for Genesis Technology over three years, sending the share price higher is higher than the 32% average annual increase in the share price. So it is reasonable to conclude that the market has cooled on the stock.

    The total shareholder return (TSR) and the share price return are also important to consider for any given stock. According to Simply Wall Street News, “the TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested.” So generous dividend-paying companies have a higher TSR than the share price return. In the case of Genesis Technology, it has had a TSR of 143% for the last 3 years, which exceeds its share price return, and the dividends paid by the company have thus boosted the total shareholder return.

  • Intel Core i7-11700K spotted on Geekbench again

    Intel Core i7-11700K spotted on Geekbench again

    The Intel Core i7-11700K has been recently been spotted on Geekbench by @TUM_APISAK and the results seem weirder than before as there’s a performance drop. It was spotted running on a Colorful Z590M GAMING PRO motherboard along with 16GB RAM.

    The CPU specs have been confirmed when spotted on PassMark and the base frequency of the Core i7-11700K will be 3.60 GHz and boost clock speeds of 5.0 GHz. Also, Intel has increased the L3 cache to 16 MB that has greatly helped the performance of these CPUs.

    Intel Core i7-11700K

    As we see, the Geekbench scoring 1551 points in single-core while managing only 8849 points in multi-threaded tests. This is a huge dip in performance than we saw earlier as previously the best score from this CPU was 1810 points single-core and 11304 points multi-core.

    Well, although the new scores are a letdown, these new Rocket Lake-S desktop CPUs are making so much of their presence available on Geekbench that it seems Intel is counting on its new 11th Gen processors that are unfortunately capped to 8 cores only.

  • First legit Intel Core i9-11900K Geekbench result spotted, blows away in single-core

    First legit Intel Core i9-11900K Geekbench result spotted, blows away in single-core

    It’s not the first time we have had spotted Intel’s upcoming 8-core flagship CPU in action but this time, the Geekbench result seems more accurate than ever. The results are incredible and way beyond what we have saw in past couple of weeks.

    The 8 core, 16 threaded CPU has a max all-core boost of 4.8GHz and 3.5GHz base clock speeds whereas the single-core boost goes up to a whopping 5.3GHz. Until now it was spotted on Cinebench, CPU-Z, Ashes of Singularity benchmarks but this is the first time it has made entry to Geekbench.

    The Core i9-11900K has blown the competition scoring a massive 1892 points in single-core and a pretty impressive 10934 points in multi-core. This is the highest single-core score ever and this could definitely end AMD’s short term dominance in gaming market.

    While in multi-core scores, the Core i9-11900K just manages to beat the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X by a narrow margin which scores 10427 points. Overall, the upcoming Intel flagship looks crazy on paper while the single-core results are just mind-blowing!

  • Intense competition on MiniLED TVs in 2021 as companies try to attract more customers

    Intense competition on MiniLED TVs in 2021 as companies try to attract more customers

    Just like the revolution happening in the smartphone industry, companies are willing to spread that innovation into the Television industry as well. MiniLED TV seems to be the future on which many companies are betting. We had already seen the world’s top three TV manufacturers revealing their MiniLED TV sets at CES 2021 to attract more customers.

    Before discussing how the companies are planning to launch their products, we first have to talk that what are MiniLED TVs. MiniLED is just like other LCD TVs just that it features tiny LEDs for backlighting. The size of these LEDs is between 100 to 200 micrometers.

    The conventional LEDs which are used in TVs are sized around 300 micrometers. Thus, these new LEDs are much smaller than the earlier ones. Smaller these LEDs, highly beneficial it is for the TVs. This is because it enables a better contrast ratio. It also helps in dimming deeper black on LCD panels. 

    In all, we can say that the revolution in the LCD domain will match the performance of OLED panels. In CES 2021, Samsung launched its Neo QLED, micro-LED, and lifestyle TV display panels, and the sales of this are expected to start from March 2021. The Neo QLED will have 4K and 8K resolutions.

    With over 30,000 MiniLEDs, LG also launched its QNED TV in the last month of 2020. We can see as many as four variants in this. They can be 86 inches, 90 inches, 95 inches, and a 99 inches model. TCL was also quick to come out with its 3rd Gen MiniLED TV, the OD Zero, at CES 2021. This is expected you be available only after July of this year. Reports also show that the sales of MiniLED TVs will surpass the sales of OLED TVs as soon as 2024.

  • Samsung is ready to bring 90Hz OLED Laptop Display in 2021

    Samsung is ready to bring 90Hz OLED Laptop Display in 2021

    Samsung Display is one of the biggest display manufacturer across the globe and as the industry is always setting new standards, the South Korean giant has always more to offer for its partners and customers.

    Samsung makes one of the best OLED displays and no one can deny it but OLEDs on laptops haven’t been seen more often than not. So, Samsung Display has announced recently that it will mass-produce the world’s first 90Hz OLED laptops in the first quarter of this year.

    Samsung Display Chief Executive Officer Joo Sun Choi said that the company will initially produce very large quantities of 14-inch, 90Hz OLED displays destined for laptops and notebooks, beginning in March.

    “OLED display panels can best satisfy the diverse consumer needs for laptops used in telework, online education, video streaming, and gaming,” the company said.

    Samsung Display has tested the blur length using the same motion picture of a fast-driving car and found that the image drag of 90Hz OLED and 120Hz high refresh rate LCD screens is 0.9mm and 1mm, respectively. In short, 90Hz OLED screens smear amazingly little, at practically the same rate as a 120Hz LCD.

    This is one step forward by Samsung and as OLED displays get more attention, we will definitely see more high-end laptops adopting a 90Hz OLED Laptop Display. This eventually will result in better viewing as well the smoothness of the 90Hz refresh rate on a laptop.

    Also, this can reduce the price of OLED displays for laptops down the years as LCDs have stayed quiet for some time. The smartphone industry is shifting to OLED and it’s high time that laptop manufacturers shift to OLED Laptop Displays preferably by Samsung, starting from 2021.

Whereas in single-core performance, the 5900HX also topped the ranking with 3365 points. 

    All thanks to the new Zen 3 architecture and having a 3.3 GHz base and up to 4.7 GHz boost clock frequencies. It even beats Intel’s new Core i7-1185G7 and its wonders to me how the flagship Ryzen 9 5980HX will perform. As for now, you’ll see more of the Ryzen 9 5900HX on a wide range of upcoming gaming laptops.
