Much awaited Huawei P20 arrives in Nepal

Around two months back, Huawei had launched its new member of the flagship P-series in the international market, the P20. However, Nepal was yet to experience the likes of it. But now, the wait is finally over and Huawei has launched the P20 in Nepal.

As we are aware, the feature highlight of the device is the cameras. The Huawei P20 features the Leica’s Dual cameras that pack plenty of features like the temperature sensor, pixel-level color optimization, etc. The dual cameras at the back feature a 12MP f/1.8 RGB+ 20 MP f/1.6 monochrome camera setup. The cameras also come with AI image stabilization that helps you get perfect blur-free pictures effortlessly, as claimed by Huawei.

Similarly, like its competitor, the Samsung Galaxy S9, this one too shows off the super slow motion video option recorded at 960 frames per second in HD resolution. However, since it’s just HD, like the S9, there may be concerns regarding loss of quality. But, we cannot be certain about that right now so we will have to give it a test.

After a few speculations, Oppo has finally launched the OPPO F7 Youth in the Philippines.

Sony is now the biggest music publisher in the world

Sony recently came into agreements with EMI Music Publishing, now gaining over 60% stakes Sony basically owns the music giant. This makes them the biggest music publishers in the world now. The deal is said to be worth about $2.3 billion and gives 90% of controlling stakes of EMI to Sony.

In case you didn’t know, EMI Music Publishing owns rights to artists like Alicia Keys, Kanye West, Queen, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Arctic Monkeys, Drake and countless others, with over 2 million songs in their catalog. You can check their entire list of artist catalog here.

Sony Music itself owns song rights of artists like Elvis Presley, Foster the People, Willie Nelson, Luke Combs, Jimi Hendrix, Justin Timberlake and even DJ Khalid to name a few. You can check out their entire artist catalog here.

This is the first major move from Sony’s recently appointed CEO, Kenichiro Yoshida who joined the company in April this year. He adds,”investment in content intellectual property is a key stepping stone for our long-term growth.” Although the deal is yet to complete, awaiting the usual regulatory approvals.Apple music vs spotify sony

Sony also adds,”music business has enjoyed a resurgence” thanks to the likes of paid streaming services like Spotify or Apple music. The new CEO plans to stabilize the profits from the entertainment side of Sony’s business, and this might be first of many to come.

Sony’s third-quarter earnings were up 11% to $23.6 billion and an overall profit of $2.63 billion. All of their divisions saw improvement in performance, alongside their PlayStation sales, which was up 300%, with them reportedly selling over 79 million units.

MediaTek unveils the Helio P22: An octa-core 12nm processor for mid-range smartphones

MediaTek, announced a new chipset yesterday, the Helio P22. And the reason why we all should be excited about this is that this the first 12nm processor meant solely for mid-range devices.

MediaTek has been recently working to improve its SoCs and the new Helio P22 chipset showcases exactly that. This product follows the previous launch of the Helio P60 which has been received quite well.

The Helio P22 has opened a whole new horizon for mid-range smartphones as it offers quite a lot of features. The SoC offers AI-accelerated features, supports HD display of up to 20:9 aspect ratio, dual cameras, and a high-speed connectivity, all for an affordable price.

MediaTek has claimed that this move will now help them to expand in the “new premium” market. We hear a lot about cheap phones getting better day-by-day and the P22 is now in works for that.

With the 12nm technology in place, we can expect the Helio P22 to provide a smooth performance all while giving priority to the power saving as well. The chipset will have the octa-core Cortex A53 processors with up to 2.0 GHz of clock speed for the high performance.

In terms of camera, the new MediaTek Helio P22 supports dual 13+8 megapixel cameras with a video capture of up to 30 frames per second. According to MediaTek, the P22 “is equipped to minimize grain, noise, aliasing, chromatic aberration and more; enabling crisp and clear images under varying lighting conditions.”

The MediaTek Helio P22 also supports Bluetooth 5.0 which we don’t usually see in a mid-range smartphone. Also, there is an ac WiFi band for better internet connections.

The MediaTek Helio P22 is already in production right now, and according to the manufacturers, the product will be available on various smartphones by the end of Q2 2018.

This new product from MediaTek is commendable, and I am now hoping the company will now step into the flagship zone and launch a new product as a successor to the Helio X30.
