Apple Thinking Different about the iPhone 14: Complete redesign on the cards

While we just saw the release of the iPhone 13, Apple has already begun revealing a few tidbits about its next-generation model, the Apple iPhone 14. Reportedly, the brand is going to completely redesign the product and introduce major changes to the way it thinks of its lineup.

Apple iPhone 14 rumoured variants

According to Bloomberg, Apple will release an entry level and pro model next year as a part of the Iphone 14 series. Additionally, there will not be a mini model launched mid-year. While many users were disappointed with the iPhone 13, believing it to be an upgrade of the S series, Bloomberg’s reporters believe that the modest upgrade will prove to be justified as the brand’s engineers are working on something bigger behind the scenes. Also, instead of launching a mini model, Apple will stick with an entry-level model, two pros and one ‘Max’ model, with the last being a new model variant that will come into play with the iPhone 14 series.

Now, whether this is just clever marketing to make sure consumers don’t bemoan the iPhone 13, or there’s something truly revolutionary on the way is something only time will tell.

Reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has also hinted that there may be a major redesign as far as the Apple iPhone 14 goes. For starters, he believes that Apple will do away with the notch camera, and introduce a hole-punch camera on the front. This won’t be the first time Apple has picked up an Android feature and called it ‘new’.

Kuo’s reports also state that we might see a foldable iPhone by 2024 (by which time Samsung would have tried and tested a few foldable phone variants enough times for Apple to *borrow* the idea), along with a smartphone with an under-display touch ID screen in 2023.

Specs comparison: Honor Play 8A vs Honor 8X

The Honor 8A has been the talk of the town for quite a period of time. The phone was leaked on TENNA earlier then revealed on the Chinese website called Weibo. Finally, the smartphone got launched in China last week with a MediaTek chipset. On the other hand, the Honor 8X is another mid-range segment device by the company that is powered by a Kirin 710 octa-core processor. We are comparing these two smartphones to see which one will be the right choice in terms of specifications? The Honor Play 8A sports a 6.03-inch display that offers a resolution of 720 x 1560 pixels, while the Honor 8X features a slightly bigger 6.05-inch display that comes with a resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels. The Honor Play 8A has a water-drop notch on top of it, which houses the front-facing camera, while the Honor 8X has a traditional notch. Coming to the processor, the Honor 8X is powered by a Kirin 710 octa-core processor, which is paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal memory. On the other hand, the Hono

First ever drone-delivered kidney is no worse for wear

Drone delivery really only seems practical for two things: take-out and organ transplants. Both are relatively light and also extremely time sensitive. Well, experiments in flying a kidney around Baltimore in a refrigerated box have yielded positive results — which also seems promising for getting your pad thai to you in good kit. The test flights were conducted by researchers at the University of Maryland there, led by surgeon Joseph Scalea. He has been frustrated in the past with the inflexibility of air delivery systems, and felt that drones represent an obvious solution to the last-mile problem. Scalea and his colleagues modified a DJI M600 drone to carry a refrigerated box payload, and also designed a wireless biosensor for monitoring the organ while in flight. After months of waiting, their study was assigned a kidney that was healthy enough for testing but not good enough for transplant. Once it landed in Baltimore, the team loaded it into the container and had it travel 14

Face unlock easily defeated with photo in over 30 smartphone models

We’ve seen a resurgence in face unlock across the mobile industry, arguably due to Apple’s iPhone X touting the technology. Unfortunately, a new study shows that plenty of phones can be defeated with a simple photo. The Dutch Consumentenbond organization found that out of 110 devices tested, 42 could be unlocked with a high quality photo of the owner (h/t: The Register ). To be fair, the organization counted regional and dual-SIM variants as separate models in its testing, so the real number of dodgy devices is actually in the 30s. Nevertheless, this still represents a massive number of devices that are vulnerable to a simple photo. The list wasn’t restricted to a few manufacturers either, as the likes of Alcatel , BlackBerry , Huawei , Lenovo , Nokia , Sony , and Xiaomi were all featured here. Most of these phones were budget devices, but we also have a few flagships affected by shoddy face unlock. These devices include the HTC U11 Plus , the Huawei P20 Pro , and Sony’s Xper
