The visual changes that Android 8.1 Oreo will bring to the Pixel 2 and the 2 XL, will also be hard to pin-point. Here's everything -- important -- that Android 8.1 Oreo brings to the table
Android 8.1 Oreo may be a minor maintenance release after the major update of Android 8.0, but, Google's new OS update crams in enough changes/features under the hood to warrant an upgrade. Android 8.1 Oreo, which is now rolling out for the Pixel 2 and 2 XL, the Pixel 1 and 1 XL, the Pixel C tablet, and the Nexus 6P and 5X, makes a classic case for machine learning and AI. At the same time, it also marks the release of Android Go: a platform designed from ground up to make entry-level smartphones exciting again.
The biggest beneficiaries of Android 8.1 Oreo will be the latest batch of Pixel phones, aka the Pixel 2 and the 2 XL. Having said that, the visual changes that Android 8.1 Oreo will bring to the Pixel 2 and the 2 XL, will also be hard to pin-point. Here's everything -- important -- that Android 8.1 Oreo brings to the table:
Neural Networks API
The biggest feature in Android 8.1 Oreo is a new Neural Networks API (NNAPI), which is "designed for running computationally intensive operations for machine learning on mobile devices." Both new and incumbent phones -- running Android 8.1 -- can benefit from this, according to Google. The Pixel 2 (and the Pixel 2 XL) is notably the first phone in the world to ship with special machine-learning hardware that can hardware accelerate this API. Hopefully, others will follow.
The Pixel 2 packs in a custom built 8-core co-processor called Pixel Visual Core along side the usual 8-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC. For now, the Pixel Visual Core, will allow Google's in-house HDR+ image processing technology to run "5x faster and at less than 1/10th the energy." It shipped in a dormant mode when the Pixel 2 was originally launched, but with the roll-out of Android 8.1 Oreo, Google is turning it on for everyone.
Note that Android 8.1 Oreo doesn't automatically enable the Pixel Visual Core in the Pixel 2. You'll have to enable it manually by heading over to the phone's developer options menu.
-- Go into Settings > System > About phone > Build number
-- Tap 7 times (5 times if you're on beta) to enable Developer options
-- Go into Developer options > Debugging > Camera HAL HDR+
If you know a thing or two about Google's Pixel phones, you'll probably know a thing or two about their HDR+ image processing technology. It's the Pixel's HDR+ tech that's behind their picture-perfect cameras. Because, the Pixel's in-house camera app already has the feature, enabling Camera HAL HDR+ -- for now -- won't make the Pixel 2 shoot even better photos. It would, instead, assist third-party apps like Instagram to take advantage of Google's HDR+. This means, the next time you fire up an app like Instagram with in-app camera needs, the photos you get directly out of it will be closer to the quality you get when taking photos with the in-house camera app on the Pixel 2.
The bigger picture, however, is the fact that because the Pixel Visual Core will rely heavily on machine learning, it has the potential to learn and improve with time as more and more developers and users get on-board.
The Pixel Visual Core, it must be remembered, is just a drop in the ocean. Google's Neural Networks API opens the door for a vast majority of OEMs to dip their toes into machine learning and AI.
Augmented Reality
The Google Pixel, as mentioned earlier, can quite literally astound you with its picture-perfect cameras. The Pixel camera is a fine example to assert that good hardware can take you a long way, but, good software can take you farther still. The Pixel camera is good - nay great - not just because it has good hardware, but, because it has software that complements it on each and every level, and then some more. Because of this Google can continue to make things even better, and add more features to keep things interesting now and in the future. Augmented Reality stickers are an example.
Announced in October 2017 along-side the Pixel 2 and the Pixel 2 XL, Google's new Augmented Reality stickers can allow Pixel users to "add virtual characters and playful emojis directly into your photos and videos to bring your favorite stories to life." Augmented Reality stickers are now rolling out for the Pixel and the Pixel 2 -- with Android 8.1 Oreo -- although the global search engine giant notes that, "the Pixel 2 has been factory-calibrated for AR which means you'll get the best experience on Pixel 2."
The Augmented Reality stickers are built right into the Google camera app on the Pixel phones and require no additional downloads/installs. They can be accessed via the standard menu toggle found on the left-most corner (up-top) of the camera app when available. More precisely, the AR stickers option, rests below the Portrait mode feature in the menu.
The interface is simple: AR characters at the top and camera controls at the bottom. Google is rolling out as many as five character modes - Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Stranger Things, Foodmoji, 3D Text and what appears to be animojis in some sort of celebratory mood -- for now but hopefully more would be added in the days to come.
What makes Google's attempt to really stand out is ARCore, that adds machine learning and algorithm to ensure, you get a feeling you're dealing with characters with a distinct identity rather than well, just plain old stickers. ARCore, for your reference, is Android's version of Apple ARKit. It brings augmented reality capabilities to existing and future Android phones. It's different from Tango, another AR effort by Google that relies heavily on custom -- high-end -- hardware. ARCore is less powerful than Tango, but that's because, it is designed to bring AR capabilities to the masses.
Augmented Reality stickers are just one application of ARcore. What makes them and ARCore more exciting is the fact that Google intends to support 100 million Android devices in the days to come. So while Augmented Reality stickers may be exclusive to the Pixel for now, it's only about time, we'll see such applications rolling out to fairly less powerful phones.
Android Go
Google's highly ambitious project to connect the next billion users, aka Android Go, is also officially official with Android 8.1 Oreo. Android Go, to recall, was first announced at Google I/O 2017, as a special configuration of Android Oreo for entry-level handsets with less than 1GB of RAM. The aim, much like it is in the case of Android One devices, is to offer high-quality handsets with high-quality software at rock-bottom prices. Android One demands handsets to ship with 1GB and more of RAM, but Android Go handsets will be able to support RAM as low as 512MB.
Google has re-worked on almost its entire suit of apps, including Google Assistant, Google Maps, YouTube, Gmail, Play, Gboard, and Chrome, for Android Go even as more and more developers are lending their support for the platform. Google notes that all Android Go devices will come pre-bundled with a Play Store that will house both kinds of apps: those designed/optimised specifically for Android Go and others that are not. Users can chose to download and install both kinds of apps but the user experience will vary from app to app, the company adds.
Google has, at the same time, announced a new Files app called Files Go and a new search app called Google Go that although have been designed for Android Go devices will also be available for standard Android devices from the Play Store.
Android Go, besides aiding in a smooth lag-free experience on bare-bone devices, will also ensure the software is relatively light on storage. Just like it has been designed for devices with less than 1GB of RAM, Google has said that devices with as low as 4GB and 8GB of internal storage are likely to benefit from the new OS. Apps designed for Android Go will take up up to 50 per cent less space allowing for up to 2X more storage availability than on standard Android Nougat-based phones, it says. This can be used, for instance, to save up to 1,000 more photos on Android Go-based devices.
Other notable tweaks:
-- Android 8.1 Oreo adds a battery readout -- indicating the battery percentage of your connected device -- to the Bluetooth Quick Settings and the Bluetooth regular settings.
-- The bottom seated always-on navigation bar turns to an inverted black-on-white color scheme in Android 8.1 Oreo in some apps like the system settings to reduce screen burn-in. The navigation buttons also dim after a second or two of idleness.
-- Android 8.1 Oreo adds transparency to the pull-down settings/notification menu.
-- Android 8.1 Oreo adds new reboot animations, as also a new power off/restart menu that now pulls out from the right corner of the screen.
-- Apps and notifications menu in settings -- in Android 8.1 Oreo -- now displays recently opened apps for a quick referral.
-- The Netflix app now supports picture-in-picture mode.
-- On a lighter note, Google has finally learned the proper way to make a cheeseburger in Android 8.1 Oreo. You get new hamburger, beer, and cheese emojis with the update. Also, Android 8.1 brings in a new Oreo Easter egg if you're into that sort of thing.
Back in September an upcoming 2018 Sony smartphone had its specs leaked by a benchmark run. So far, however, all we've had to go on was its model number, namely H4233. And while that in itself betrayed the phone's mid-range status, it's always good to know exactly what a device is actually going to be called.
In this case, the H4233 will be sold as the Xperia XA2 Ultra, the successor to theXA1 Ultrawhich launched this May. The official confirmation of its name comes by way of SIRIM, the Malaysian product certification body, which has outed it through its documents.
The XA2 Ultra could make its debut at MWC in February, since that's where its predecessor got official too. According to the aforementioned benchmark listing, the new model will be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 630, paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. It will boast a 6" 1080p 16:9 touchscreen, a 21 MP rear camera, and a 16 MP selfie snapper. It will run Android 8.0 Oreo from day one.
We all experienced a little bit of sticker shock when Apple announced that the lowest-tier iPhone X would clock in at a thousand dollars (give or take a penny or two). Four figures is a pretty nasty sum for a mobile phone, especially considering how often we mess ours up in the course of the battle against evil. But they’re the market leaders, so they set the rules.
The thing is, in context a thousand bucks isn’t even that bad. People have been making cell phones way more expensive than that, and they don’t even have edge-to-edge screens or FaceID. Join us as we dive deep into the world of high-end cell phones for the rich and crazy.
Solarin
Cost: $14,000.00
Security is a big deal in this post-Fappening universe, and if you’re worried that hackers will get into your cloud storage and have a lot of money to throw around, the self-styled “world’s most secure cell phone” might be for you. Made by Sirin Labs, the Solarin comes with endorsements from Hollywood stars like Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy. Running a custom Android OS, the big draw here is a hardware feature – a switch at the back of the device toggles it into a mode where it can only make outgoing voice calls and securely encrypted messaging. All that security doesn’t come cheap – this baby weighs in at nearly half a pound.
Gresso Meridian Black
Cost: $9,500.00
While most phone makers are moving towards bigger touch screens, the luxe merchants at Gresso are holding tight to buttons – they’re just making them out of gold. The Meridian Black is milled from a single piece of titanium, with a gold keypad where each button is hand-polished by a single craftsman. Produced in a limited edition of 999, it’s a retro-looking mobile device with the unusual ability to support two SIM cards, letting you switch identities easily if that’s the kind of thing you like to do. The rest of the machine isn’t that technically impressive, with 32GB of internal memory and a 3MPX camera, but it sure does look cool. Goldvish Eclipse – Magic Onyx Alligator
Cost: $7965.00
The more fancy-sounding words in a phone’s name, the more you can charge for it. That’s just how it works! The “Onyx Alligator” in this pricey mobile’s name refers to the black alligator leather that enrobes the device, which doesn’t add any performance improvements but feels pretty cool. The device itself is relatively solid, with 64GB onboard storage and a Snapdragon quad-core processor. It runs the latest version of Android Cyanogen, a popular mod that delivers a number of performance improvements over base Android. In addition, the 5MP front camera lets you snap Instagram selfies with gorgeous clarity. If you’ve got a phone like this, it’s fair to say you probably do that a lot.
VIPN Black Diamond
Cost: $300,000.00
What could make the idea of buying a $300 large cell phone even more ridiculous? What about if it was a Windows phone? That’s one of the many completely inexplicable decisions that went into 2006’s VIPN Black Diamond telephone. The creation of Singaporean artist Jaren Goh, the device has a pair of diamonds inlaid into the surface – one on the joystick and the other one on the flip side. It boasted a beefy (for the time) 2GB SD card, a 2.1-inch touchscreen along with traditional keypad and a weird chevron-esque form factor. Only five were made, with a clientele of wealthy oil millionaires the target market. Savelli Champagne Diamond
Cost: $57,000.00
Many of these pricey smartphones get their cost from the combination of high-end materials and the signature of a designer who has a high opinion of himself. A perfect illustration of this is the Savelli Champagne Diamond, which debuted in 2013. The creation of Swiss designer Alessandro Savelli, the guiding principle behind the Champagne Diamond was to create a cell phone that would work as a luxe accessory. With a shell formed of 18 carat rose gold, inlaid with 395 white and cognac diamonds, it’s quite the conversation pi
Want to learn the hidden secrets of WhatsApp? Check out these hacks that will turn you into a Whatsapp messaging master.
Every now and then, the app comes out with new features and tricks. Therefore, we’ve decided to list out some of its best tricks and hacks that the app has to offer. (Istock)
The first thing you do when you wake up in the morning is that you check your WhatsApp for new messages, not go to the washroom. And the last thing you do before you go to sleep is check your Whatsapp for new messages, not brush your teeth. There is no denying of the fact that WhatsApp has become an intimate part of our lives, without it, life will come to standstill. Every now and then, the app comes out with new features and tricks. Therefore, we’ve decided to list out some of its best tricks and hacks that the app has to offer.
1)Using whatsapp through Siri or Ok Google
Not in the mood to type your message? Then, this hack is exactly what you need to send your message without typing. You need to say “Hey Siri” if you have an iphone or “OK Google” if you have an android phone and then say “ Send WhatsApp to” followed by your contact name. And then, you can dictate your message and you don’t need to type at all!
2)How to hide your messages from popping up on the screen
If the prying eyes in the office annoy you whenever you receive a new whatsapp message, then this hack is for you. To hide notifications of new messages in yourWhatsAppp, just go to settings > notifications and select the option of ‘no pop-up’ for pop-up notification for both group and individual chats.
3)How to listen to voice messages discreetly
One of the biggest problems with voice messages on WhatsApp is that you don’t know how to listen to the message discreetly without headphones. This hack provides the answer. While listening to the voice message, place the phone near your ear, just like you do when pick up a call. By doing this, the proximity sensor gets activated, which means the message plays through your earpiece and not the headphones.
4)How to read a message by avoiding the blue tick
The blue tick mark in the chat indicates that the person has read the message. Both parties get to know about the status of the message. However, if you turn it off, then none of the parties get to know if someone has read the message or not. To avoid this complicated blue tick process, try this hack. Once you get a message, turn off you Wi-Fi and mobile data and go offline. And then read the message. This way, you can read the message without alerting the other person.
5)How to hide Whatsapp folder from gallery
Sometimes we don’t want anyone looking at the images or files that we share through WhatsApp. This hack allows you to hide your WhatsApp folders from the gallery. Open your file manager and go to the WhatsApp folder. In Whatsapp folder, you will find two folders WhatsApp video and WhatsApp images. Just add a dot in the prefix for both of the folders.

जालंधर- दिग्गज सोशल साइट फेसबुक को दुनियाभर में इस्तेमाल किया जाता है। वहीं एेसा अक्सर देखा जाता है कि यूजर्स थर्ड पार्टी एप्स के नोटिफिकेशन को ब्लॉक करते है और कई बार उसे हाइड भी करते है। इसी परेशानी को दूर करने के लिए कंपनी अपने प्लेटफॉर्म से एप्प इनवाइट फीचर को बंद करने की योजना बना रही है और फेसबुक ने अपने ब्लॉग पोस्ट में एप्प इनवाइट फीचर को हटाने की घोषणा भी की है।
रिपोर्ट के मुताबिक कंपनी इसके अलावा थर्ड पार्टी एप्प पेज लाइक बटन भी बंद करेगी। जिससे अब आप किसी अन्य एप्प से किसी वेबसाइट या एप्प के फेसबुक पेज को लाइक नहीं कर पाएंगे। उसके पेज को लाइक करने के लिए आपको फेसबुक पर ही जाना होगा। उम्मीद की जा रही है कि 6 फरवरी 2018 के बाद ये दोनों फीचर बंद हो जाएंगे।
Since September 12, the entire (almost) world has been wrapped in the hue and cry of the new Apple iPhone X, and its heftier than hefty price tag. In India, the iPhone X will be available in November, priced at a whopping Rs 89,000. The higher storage variant, on the other hand, is priced at Rs 102,000. Now, there would be a big bunch that will readily and easily spend a lakh for the iPhone X, but the major lot is like me, that would just sit on the couch, and curse myself for being broke, and Apple for being crazy.
However at this moment, there is something very interesting we have come across on the internet. The Apple iPhone X is scheduled to go up for sale in November, but before the pre-booking could even kick off, a much cheaper Chinese version of the smartphone is already out.
A smartphone going by the name GooPhone, has been spotted in China, which looks almost identical to the iPhone X. And the most interesting bit is the price tag – $100 (approximately Rs 6,500). The GooPhone is a Chinese brand notorious for selling knockoffs of premium devices, and this time around it’s managed to get its iPhone doppelganger out well before the actual launch of the iPhone X. Ladies and gentlemen, meet the GooPhone I8, also known as GooPhone X.
