The iPhone May Soon be Able to Map Your Face for 3 D Selfies

Well, science and technology has moulded our lives and given a new shape in this digital world. Innovation and discovery going hand in have led to the most astonishing products and made our dreams come true. Without technology, we are like nowhere. There is always a healthy competition between the top companies to ace the market. Well, ever since Steve Jobs led Apple has come into the market, they had reached a new height and now the legacy is continued by Tim Cook. Each year apple comes with iPhones especially in the end of September. There has always been curiosity and some speculations about the features of the upcoming about how it will change the market and put an impact in the tech market.

FEATURES

Well, the latest report about the upcoming iPhones is that there would be a 3-D selfie camera. To be more specific, it would be able to amp your face. It will involve both the process of authentication and augmented reality which the new iPhone will be having. The camera would also come handy when you want to check the distance of any object which is quite far away from the lens. If this feature comes into market, then it would only another feather into the cap.

THE COMPETITION

It already uses the technology to organise the photos based on the subjects that gets recognised in the images. To compete with the other stalwart companies like the Microsoft and Samsung which uses facial recognition to unlock the phone, Apple is also trying to bring something new. Well, apple promises to clear the bug or the faults that the users had in facial recognition with HP or other companies. The report states that the Apple has planned to use a depth sensing camera to remove the technical issues as well as other problems.

THE RESULT

The report says that the readings would be more accurate and the users won’t be having any sort of problem using this technology. Day in and day out, we are trying our best to match up to the latest technology and this will increase the desire to experience more. With the help of visual sensors, the make up or any sort of trick can be identified in the upcoming Apple iPhone. It can recognise the dark skin tones as well. The major concern would be the privacy. The technology would map your face but the major concern lies how the identification data would be used. People are still unaware of how Apple would solve this problem and it is a big curiosity among the multitude also.

RAISING EYEBROWS

The matter which would raise the eyebrows of the people is whether the privacy would be maintained by the company or not. And also whether the recognition can be disabled by the user or not. So for the confirmation, we just need to sit back and wait till the actuals beans are spilled. But one thing is pretty sure, that the people will enjoy a new experience from this.

iPhone SE: Still the Best Budget Smartphone on the Market.

When Apple released the iPhone SE back in March of last year, branding it as a budget phone didn't go well with some critics. It was hard to see how being the cheapest iPhone automatically made it a great cheap phone. However, the smart analyst could tell, from day one, that the iPhone SE was the best value for money a smartphone was offering at the time.

As a much-needed update to the iPhone 5S, the iPhone SE remained just as compact while featuring the specs of the then latest flagship, the iPhone 6S. And all that came with a $399 price tag, which was the lowest launch price we'd ever seen on an iPhone, outdoing even the iPhone 5C, which began life at $549.

How Apple made the iPhone SE so cheap

The iPhone 5C was Apple's first major attempt into the realm of budget smartphones and, at first glance, it sure looked cheap. It was the first iPhone to feature a plastic case which, while giving the customer a variety of color choices, offered a build quality that couldn't match the steel and aluminum materials that were native to previous devices.

Despite the obvious compromises, the iPhone 5C started at $549, only $100 cheaper than the equivalent, premium flagship, the iPhone 5S. Of course, the iPhone 5C's price has since dropped considerably and, perhaps, it is now the budget phone that was promised. Regardless, it's still hard to ignore the fact that what Apple called "budget" at launch, was only a few dollars away from the premium price range of $600 and above.

Fast-forward to three years later, in 2016, and the tech giant was back, unveiling another "budget" phone. Many people took the news of an upcoming cheap iPhone as a plastic version of the iPhone 6S, Apple's flagship at the time, but were shocked when the iPhone SE came out with the iconic iPhone 5S design.

Sure, the SE wasn't the cheapest budget smartphone around. But, with high-end hardware and a friendly price tag, it was a proper fit for the “budget” category. Consequently, the world wondered how Apple managed to offer such exemplary value, when their earlier attempt, the iPhone 5C, had failed.

The explanation we got was that Apple used several components from older existing iPhones to make the SE. In fact, the $399 handset supposedly cost the Cupertino company only $160 to make, leaving the rest as profit. In addition, instead of making different versions for each carrier, the phone was made to work across all services, which saved on R&D and manufacturing.

These, among a number of other reasons, enabled Apple to finally give the world a smartphone worthy of the prefix "budget."

The iPhone SE: Features and Specs

What makes the SE a decent budget smartphone is the balance it offers between cost and high-end specs. Despite its resemblance to the iPhone 5S, the phone is far superior.

Design

 

The SE is designed to offer all the features of a fully-fledged flagship in a package that's much smaller and easier to handle. The blueprint might be old, but the phone still represents quality engineering. Its brushed metallic back is hard and rigid but feels cool to touch. One-hand use is easy, regardless of the size of your hands.

Display

 

Sporting the same 1136 x 640 resolution 4-inch display as the iPhone 5S, the SE's screen is undoubtedly its weakest feature. Nevertheless, it remains perfectly sharp for its size. Compared to the current AMOLED screens on modern Samsung devices, colors are less vibrant and punchy, but still "true" and accurate.

Sound

Audio from the bottom-facing speaker is surprisingly decent for such a small handset. Maximum volume isn't as high as some similarly-priced phones, but the sound is well balanced, and there's even a hint of bass.

Performance

Neither the design, the display or the audio makes the iPhone SE special, but scratching the surface reveals an entirely different beast. The gadget is equipped with a dual-core A9 processor and 2GB of RAM, which is the same configuration you get with the iPhone 6S.

This might not seem like much when you put the specs sheet side to side with top-flight Android phones, but the SE is among the most powerful devices you can buy at its price. General performance is incredibly fast, and not even the most demanding games are too much for the little iPhone.

Camera

Things get even more interesting when you touch the camera icon. The rear iSight camera has the same 12MP sensor as the iPhone 6S, which means you'll be making use of one of the best phone cameras around.

Both pictures and videos are of excellent quality, and the "easy to use" camera app makes the shooting experience pleasant overall. In comparison to some of the SE's high-end rivals, colors look more natural and life-like, and the noise is kept to a minimum, even in low light photography.

Battery

 

Lastly, despite the Li-ion cell being only a smidgen larger than the one on the iPhone 5S, the SE's battery life is more than 50 percent better than the older model’s. This is, in large part, a result of efficiency improvements that come with the A9, which reduce power drain significantly.

Still the best budget smartphone? 

 

The iPhone SE has a lot going on. In fact, the only significant trade-off a customer would be making if they choose it over the 6S is the smaller size. It's a solid phone that will please anyone looking to strike a bargain.
That said, it has been nearly one year since the SE first hit the shelves and, with the release of the iPhone 7 last year, it's no longer the latest offering from Apple.

The iPhone 7 might not come with radical redesigns, but new features such as water resistance and stereo speakers push the SE back through in the pack. Moreover, the flagship is powered by the new A10 CPU, which is much faster and more efficient than the A9. The SE might only be a generation behind, but it's aging.
On the bright side, however, the phone still offers more than most do at the same and even higher prices. Its impressive hardware coupled with impeccable iOS optimization makes it fast, smooth and stable with any app or game.

So, what raises doubt as to whether the SE is the best budget smartphone today is more the size than the age. If you're coming from a larger phone, it'll take a bit of time to adjust to the small screen, and you'll likely be better off with something bigger but within the same price range, like the Moto G4 or the LG Nexus 5X.
Nonetheless, anyone who loves being able to bend their leg when a phone is in the front pocket will feel at ease with the iPhone SE.

To the compact lover, therefore, the SE is indeed the best budget phone on the market.

Some 2016 MacBook Pro Owners Experiencing Keyboard Problems

The 2016 version of MacBook Pro is reported to malfunction. The keyboard is not suited to the device. This latest launch of notebooks by Apple is retorted to have serious problems in the functioning of keyboards. The keyboard attached in this MacBook is developed via the latest technology using butterfly mechanism. This butterfly mechanism was for the first time introduced in ultra-thin version of MacBook, but a new version of this mechanism was fed in MacBook Pro, but instead of providing some extra benefits to the users; it is reported to be a disaster.

We are well aware of the fact that due to the presence of several versions of MacBook there are several opinions delivered by several other version of MacBook by various users. But, this butterfly mechanism though created a buzz in the market but eventually ended with a negative connotation as it is not at all reliable in comparison to the mechanisms fed in the older versions of MacBook.

Many customers who bought this 2016 version of MacBook is facing severe problems due to ineffective working of the keyboard. One of the most gruesome issues reported till date is that the keys that generally appear to make differently high pitched sound than some other key that would also make the same sound in different cases.

A video issued by MacRumors user monstermac 77 has retorted about a problem here, the problem is that whenever someone presses the caps lock key, then a sound is created that is way different from the sound of any other key present on the keyboard. Monstermac 77 has reported that this issue is only due to the problem in reproduction and is not because of any technical problem.

The users have claimed that the high pitch sound is very disturbing, but this problem is not as serious as the other problems that is reported in MacBook Pro. Reports are such that certain keys present on the keyboard of MacBook Pro version misses out the clicks and when pressed generally enters double alphabets simultaneously and sometimes they do not respond at all. So, the maker’s excuse stand on debatable grounds that this is a reproducible issue and not a technical fault as the problems that are reported clearly indicates that this is a technical problem.

Though, it is still not clear that what is the major issue behind this kind of malfunctioning of keyboards. Why and how do the keyboards become so irritating?But, this can also not be denied that the butterfly mechanism is very delicate and sensitive and can be seriously damaged even if it is projected to a certain amount of dust.

This is not the problem of all the MacBook Pro’s user as some have also reported in favor of the device, claiming that it is absolutely fine and there are even some who have said that they do face this kind of problem but it is not always that they have to encounter this kind of issues; It sometimes happens but then gets resolved automatically.

Apple Leak Reveals Significant iPhone 8 Upgrade

All the tech freaks and IPhone fanatics have been eagerly waiting for the launch of their latest device iPhone 8. This is believed to be a game changer for its eye watering price, innovative catch up features and all new design. According to new information, this latest iPhone is most expensive in its line, and its super upgraded features make the gadget worth the big price tag. Ming Chi Kuo, KGI security analyst stated that the most reliable and trustworthy Apple tipster is back again, and this time it is sure to cause a massive stir. Along with hosts of new and enhanced features this Apple gadget will feature a compact form factor, and will have a dramatically improved battery life.

Better view with bigger size 

Recently, Kuo revealed some of the features of this brand new Apple device, one of them being super compact design. He revealed, that iPhone 8 will have a 5 inch display, but will not be larger than their 4.7 inch phones. This is a standout feature considered to be extremely modern, and has been used till date in the monster phablets. The compact size will make it handy and easily usable with one hand. Apple is going to achieve this look of a 5 inch display in a 4.7 inch phone by cutting the bottom and top bezels.

The extra space available in most modern Smartphone is practically of no use and thus Apple has decided to use that extra space and create a screen extension. The touch ID and iconic home button will be removed and integrated within the display. Well, this technology is not entirely new and was announced by LG in 2016, but Apple seems to have accomplished it before them.

Improved battery performance 

Kuo also revealed that this high tech phone will feature a 2,700 MaH battery. It is almost 30% larger than iPhone 7’s 1960 maH battery. The phone will squeeze in this battery using a logic board design, and thus by using this board there will be extra space for fitting in this bigger battery.

Although, Samsung a rival company of Apple has already launched phone with 3000 maH, iOS has always managed to get away with small batteries. This new iPhone launch will feature an OLED display instead of the standard LCD and is sure to offer a better and enhanced experience.

Major leap for Apple 

Both externally and internally, iPhone 8 is being considered to be the biggest update in Apple’s history. According to speculations, this new gadget will be names iPhone X and its launch will mark the 10th anniversary of iPhone. During the launch of iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus Apple had broken its two year design cycle, and had given the same traditional design to three successive generations.

For this, several critics had accused the mega tech giant company of losing its innovative ability. This had affected the company both in terms of reduced sales figures and lower profit margins. The new and enhanced designs and features of iPhone 8 will definitely accelerate the margin scale.

iPhones Will be Accompanied with Wireless Charging

Any device that requires charge so that it becomes eligible to let its users get all the privileges fed in it, troubles its users with the problem of charging. iPhones are the best of the smartphones available in the market and the brand that produces it, is bent on providing utmost benefits to their users. Because of so many enticing features in iPhone, it is the best in the field, but apple is trying to take the notches a bit higher by eliminating the process of plug in, this would raise the standard of charging in iPhones and will introduce a new era of lightning connector.

Apple is known for introducing new and developed technologies in the market. We are all familiar with USB, that had a cold start but when Apple clubbed itself with iMac then the results were like an erupting volcano, there was none left who was not aware of this device. Wi-Fi, is another name to a developed device that had a large market before being thrashed by a competitor called HomeRf.

News are such that Apple have forged an association with Wireless Power Consortium, a rumor has surrounded the planet that Apple is almost at the verge of adding wireless charging to iPhones, Apple will be the biggest producer to do if they manage to put up such a magnificent innovation, but it is sure that they cannot do it single handedly rather they might do it with the help of first-party accessory.

There is still isn’t any confirmation on this news. It was like one member from the board of the Blu-ray Disc Association who had never forged any association with a Blu-ray drive. Possibilities are also there that Apple might have reserved wireless charging, as it is a tactic used by many to create buzz by leaking the news in the market so that it arouses interest among the users, as Apple has done it for several devices like the Apple Watch. Whereas, the company to introduce Qi to iPhone would lead to a wide variety of implications.

As the rumors regarding iPhone 8 is swirling the entire market, Apple have tried and forged new plans so that wireless charging will start from now and the users would not have to wait for iPhone 8 to be launched in the market they can avail the facility of wireless charging on their current models of iPhones.

Apple associating itself with Qi is a major plan as it might benefit the performance of the standard in some ways. This combination would be surprising and people will look upto it that what it will have in store for their customers. It is suggested that this association would be really beneficial as it would lead to quicker charging of iPhones along with a wide variety of other features. They are also planning to forge a compatibility with other vendors of phone as well, so that the implementation can be conformed as soon as possible.
