We Could Really Have a Wireless Power Grid That Runs on 5G

If you've ever owned a  Tile tracker —a square, white Bluetooth beacon that connects to your phone to help keep tabs on your wallet, keys, or whatever else you're prone to losing—you're familiar with low-power Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. Just like other small IoT devices, from  voice assistants  to  tiny chemical sensors  that can detect gas leaks, Tile trackers require a power source. It's not realistic to hook these gadgets up to a wall outlet, and having to constantly change batteries is a waste of time that's ultimately bad for the environment. But what if you could wirelessly charge those devices with a power source that's already all around you? Researchers at Georgia Tech have dreamed up this kind of "wireless power grid" with a small device that harvests the  electromagnetic energy  that  5G  base stations routinely emit. Just like the 3G and 4G cell phone towers that came before, 5G base stations radiate electromagnetic energy. At

Realme X7 Max 5G launch was pushed back recently due to the ongoing Covid-19 crisis in India. But before the postponement, Realme was geared up for a May 4 event where it was supposed to launch the Realme X7 Max among other products. Since the launch will happen sometime later, we have got a grace period for the rumours to pour in. The latest one shows a leaked live image of the retail box of Realme X7 Max 5G. And this confirms the imminent launch, as well as the fact that it will use the latest MediaTek Dimensity 1200 processor inside. Tipster Debayan Roy has tweeted what looks like a live image of Realme X7 Max 5G's retail box. The box mentions the Dimensity 1200 processor, which Realme confirmed at the time of the chipset's launch in India. Roy has also claimed that the Realme X7 Max is indeed a rebranded GT Neo. Some previous rumours suggested the Realme X7 Max 5G would be a rebadged version of the Realme X7 Pro Ultra that the company launched in China last month as the h

Samsung slips to 4th in 5G smartphone market in Q1

Samsung Electronics misplaced its main place within the international 5G smartphone market to rank fourth within the first quarter of the 12 months, a report confirmed, as Apple and Chinese language makers expanded their presence with new units. Samsung’s share within the 5G smartphone market stood at 12.7 p.c within the January-March interval, down from 34.6 p.c a 12 months in the past, in line with market researcher Technique Analytics. The South Korean tech big shipped 17 million 5G smartphones within the first three months of 2021, up 105 p.c from a 12 months earlier, but it surely was not sufficient to defend the highest spot as its rivals outperformed the corporate within the fast-growing 5G handset market. International 5G smartphone shipments jumped 458 p.c on-year to 133.9 million models within the first quarter, reviews Yonhap information company. “The surge within the 5G quantity in China, allied with the Apple issue, inevitably had a detrimental impression on Samsu

Tim Cook says iPhone 12 is the most popular iPhone model, but Pro sales also ‘very strong’

  Apple CEO Tim Cook has revealed the most popular iPhone model and the answer is not surprising at all. During Wednesday’s Apple earnings call for fiscal Q2 2021, the company CEO said that among all iPhone models released in 2020, the iPhone 12 is the most popular. He said that it has been most successful among the current iPhone family, while underlining the fact that even the Pro models continue to do well. Cook said that both the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max have also been recording strong sales, although not in first place. Interestingly, he did not mention anything about the iPhone 12 mini sales which has been struggling. Various reports suggest that Apple is even planning to stop production for the iPhone 12 mini. “iPhone 12 is the most popular, but we did see very strong sales of the Pro portion of the family as well. So the revenue that you’re seeing is a function of unit growth and revenue-per-unit growth,” Cook said, during the call. This was the first time when

Google Assistant Will Soon Be Able to Recognize ......????

       Google is updating its Google Assistant virtual companion to break communication barriers with users. Starting over the next few days, users will be able to teach Google Assistant to enunciate and recognise names of contacts the way they pronounce them. The software giant says that the Assistant will listen to the pronunciation and remember it “without keeping a recording of the voice." It claims the update aims to understand users better, especially with complicated names and the way they are pronounced. Additionally, Google Assistant is getting another update to improve its Timer feature. In case a user changes commands in mid-sentence, the Assistant would try and understand the exact inputs without needing a fresh set of voice commands. Google  states it can  be frustrating  when users are trying to send a text or make a call via  Google Assistant , and the AI is unable to recognise names or simply mispronounces contact. “Understanding spoken language is difficult becaus
