iPhone 15 series could introduce USB-C and an Ultra model

1

According to reports, Apple is refreshing its naming scheme for the upcoming iPhone 15 series. We might see an ‘Ultra’ model instead of a ‘Pro Max’ the next year. Here, we will take a look at the early rumors surrounding the iPhone 15 series.

iPhone 15 Series Rumors Roundup:

It hasn’t even been a month since the release of the iPhone 14 lineup, and rumors about the iPhone 15 series are already in circulation. Trusted sources such as Mark Gurman and Ross Young point to some significant changes in the upcoming iPhone 15 series next year.

Bye Bye Pro Max, Welcome Ultra

According to the rumors, Apple is bidding a farewell to the ‘Pro Max’ branding and replacing it with ‘Ultra’. We had our first Pro iPhones in 2019 with the iPhone 11 series. As for the Ultra moniker, we recently saw it on Apple’s latest flagship smartwatch. That aside, the Ultra moniker has popped up before with the M1 Ultra.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Design and Display

The possible integration of Ultra branding does not seem that farfetched as Apple already made some changes to the iPhone 14 series naming scheme with the resurgence of the ‘Plus‘ model.

USB-C Charging

Mark Gurman also believes that the iPhone 15 series will have USB-C charging ports instead of Apple’s proprietary lightning ports. He also added that Apple is already testing this feature well ahead of the EU’s fall 2024 ultimatum.

Dynamic Island for the non-Pro iPhones

Apple could introduce Dynamic Island to all the iPhone 15 models according to supply chain analyst Ross Young. It was one of the main highlights of this year’s Far Out Apple event but only the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max had it.

iPhone 15 Series Launch (Expected)

The iPhone 15 series is expected to hit the market in the fourth quarter of 2023. It will be interesting to see what Apple brings to the table next year. Will Apple finally do away with the Lightning port? Is there going to be a new Ultra model? Only time will tell.

Samsung is working on 3D face unlock with dual under-display cameras

1

Samsung is working on a new facial recognition system that will employ two under-display cameras as suggested by a patent. This patent was filed at KIPRIS last year and has just been made public. So, let’s take a brief look at the Samsung dual under-display camera facial recognition system and how it works.

Samsung Dual Under-display Camera Facial Recognition System:

The technology works on a simple idea based on capturing multiple images of the user from two angles to create a 3D model of the face. This model can in turn be used to unlock a device and other authentication needs as well.

Samsung Dual Under-display Camera Facial Recognition System Patent

The patent strictly mentions under-display cameras which is interesting as only Galaxy phones with the tech are foldables. This could mean Samsung is using the platform to experiment with new technologies.

However, it could also mean Samsung opted for under-display cameras in order to get the user’s angles from a wider angle range. Thus, we can expect Samsung to put a camera around the under-display fingerprint scanner area at the bottom of the display. Samsung might even combine the two optical modules into a single unit.

Pupil Size Scanning

The patent does not reveal much in detail about the system. But, the mockups show a normal phone with two under-display cameras – one at the top and one at the bottom.

Samsung Pupil Size Scan Patent

Likewise, the patent also covered pupil size measuring which can be used as an additional layer of security. Since the size of the pupil differentiates based on the lighting, this method can be used to avoid trickery via the use of pictures or masks.

Samsung Dual UDC Facial Recognition System: Launch and Availability

Just because Samsung applied for a patent does not guarantee that it will be used in actual products. While the concept is intriguing, it is currently only an idea and may still need years of work for commercial implementation. As a result, its possible launch remains unknown for the time being.

0

The Chromecast with Google TV HD is now official, replacing the original Chromecast (with no Google TV) launched 4 years ago. In this article, we will look at the specs, features, availability, and price in Nepal of the Chromecast with Google TV HD.

Chromecast with Google TV HD Overview:

Visually, it looks precisely like the Chromecast with Google TV from two years ago. However, it brings a few key changes to the game. First off, let’s talk about the resolution, it outputs a maximum of 1080p which makes it not so ideal for 4K TVs. However, it still supports HDR and the difference is negligible on smaller screens.

Chromecast with Google TV HD - What's in the box

The Chromecast with Google TV HD is available in three color options: Snow, Sunrise, and Sky. Inside the box, you get a power adapter, a power cable, a voice remote, 2 AAA batteries, and the Chromecast itself.

Newer Chipset

The new Chromecast utilizes an Amlogic S805X2 chip and supports AV1 decoding codec. The 4K model lacks support for this codec. Furthermore, the streaming device comes with 8GB of storage and 1.5GB of RAM. For software, the Chromecast with Google TV HD boots on Android 12 right out the gate.

Rest of the offering

Well, besides that, the rest remains fairly similar. The remote looks and functions exactly the same as the one on the 4K version. Likewise, you can expect a comparable Google TV experience with access to over 10k Play Store apps.

Moreover, users can enjoy various streaming platforms including Disney+, HBO Max, Netflix, Peacock, France.tv, Rakuten Viki, and YouTube TV to watch their favorite content. Additionally, you can also stream games with Stadia.

Chromecast with Google TV HD Price in Nepal and Availability

The streaming device is available in the United States for USD 30. We expect the Chromecast with Google TV HD to retail for around NPR 6,000 if it makes its way into the Nepali market.
