TL;DR

• Google appears to be working on an updated version of Google Lens.
• A new flag, “Lens Circle to Search,” was discovered in Chrome for iOS.
• This won’t be the same system-wide integration we see on Android.

Hopefully a blow to planned obsolescence

Got to agree with the conclusion of the review, while this seems like a decent offering (and I personally like the "retro" look), for Є400, you might as well get a A55 with a much better screen and probably longer security support (Android OS updates aren't that important these days).

3 os updates and 4 years of security updates

ONEPLUS 12 CONTROVERSY! It's a little concerning. My phone keeps trying to connect to a mystery network, listed as an ISP WiFi that (to my knowledge) doesn't do business here in California. Has anyone else seen something like this? What's going on?

New information has been discovered about the new smartphone "Xperia 1 Ⅵ " that Sony is expected to announce tomorrow, which appears to be from a document for domestic press.

✅ The world's only telephoto expensive zoom lens is 85-170mm. Image processing changes have been made to improve image quality. ✅ Telemacro compatibility expands the scope of photography even further ✅ AI-based posture recognition makes it possible to keep the camera in focus even when the subject is facing away from you ✅ 399 AF points ✅ S-Cinetone for mobile, Creative Look, and background blur mode that reproduces the effects of a single-lens lens are still included ✅ The shutter button is larger than the Ⅴ ✅ The sensor sizes of the wide-angle, ultra-wide-angle, and telephoto cameras are all the same as 1 Ⅴ

A Weibo tipster states the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will launch with an Adreno 830 GPU clocked at 935 MHz. The SoC's P-cores will have a peak clock of 4.2 GHz and the other six cores will max out at 2.6 GHz.

For starters, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 will launch with an Adreno 830 GPU clocked at 935 MHz. This is more or less identical to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3's Adreno 750 (~950 MHz). However, the Adreno 830 is slated to deliver Apple M2-levels of performance in a smartphone form factor, which is nothing short of impressive.

I checked the specs against the dimensity 8200 and there appeared to be absolutely no changes. So, basically the same chip as before like the dimensity 920-1080-7050 series SoC.
