| 5G Network – A Boon or A Bane? Posted: 13 Nov 2021 07:09 AM PST  The world of cellular networks is getting better and enhanced with technologies each passing day. The advancements in these technologies provide users with better and improved services. The introduction of the fifth-generation cellular network, 5G, is changing the game around the world. It is already replacing the 4G networks across the globe and offers seamless services to users in need of internet data. Even the developers benefit from the 5G network as they get to deploy their applications faster than ever. However, like everything else, 5G has its own advantages and disadvantages and in this article, we should have a look at those. The High Speed, Low Latency Cellular NetworkThe fifth-generation cellular network is much faster than its predecessor when it comes to functioning on smartphones or any other device. The casual users get access to movies, videos, and seconds in seconds using 5G and the organizations can use it for automation, advanced web conferencing, and more using up to 20Gbps of internet speed it provides. With faster speed than ever, 5G also provides a very low latent network as compared to 4G or 4G LTE, and applications such as AI, IoT, virtual reality could operate very seamlessly using the cellular network. Smartphone users can access webpages and browsers without any difficulty. 5G not only helps users to save hours of the day but also improves the overall efficiency.5G – The Efficient Cellular NetworkOne of the best things about the introduction of 5G is that its delivery capacity is a hundred times better than that of 4G. Users can get much better performance as 5G allows a smooth transition between cellular and Wi-Fi wireless strategies. Probably the biggest advantage of 5G is the increased bandwidth it provides aiding in faster transfer of data. 5G network is also making it easier for technologies to advance further. It provides connectivity across multiple devices such as drones or sensors as well. The option to smoothly connect with IoT can help industries to increase their productivity among other things.Limitations of 5GEven though 5G is a faster and efficient cellular network in history, it does have very limited availability. Only developed cities around the globe may benefit from the 5G network and it will be a while until everyone gets access to it. Additionally, 5G frequency can be hindered very easily by tall trees and buildings and even rain. More towers are needed to increase the coverage which is expensive as well as time-taking.5G May Not Always Be User FriendlyAlthough users get amazing download speed with 5G network, the upload speed, however, is not that fast and isn't even more than 100Mbps as compared to 4G. The other issue users face is the draining battery because of the usage of 5G connections. New battery technologies are required to be introduced by manufacturers in order to resolve the issue. The increased bandwidth of 5G also creates a higher probability of hacking than ever before. Companies using it across multiple devices need to deploy extra security infrastructure in order to protect their data. The lack of encryption also makes it quite easier for hackers to attack exactly where they want to. Consumers need to be more aware of the security while using 5G networks. |
| Apple iMac Pro Sporting M1 Pro, M1 Max Chipsets Might Come in First Half of 2022 Posted: 13 Nov 2021 05:04 AM PST  Specifications of iMac ProThe design of the arriving iMac is expected to be quite identical to 24-inch iMac and Pro Display XDR. The model may feature black bezels, which could be comparatively a lot slimmer than that of Pro Display XDR if the devices are indeed similar. According to a Macrumors report, the upcoming iMac is expected to sport a mini-LED display like the MacBook Pro models launched in 2021. The mini-LED display provides deeper blacks, brighter colours, and improved HDR. The device will also feature a 120Hz refresh rate because of the ProMotion Display Technology used. The 120Hz refresh rate allows the users to have a seamless gaming experience and improvement in general animations across macOS. Rumours have also suggested that the device may have a screen size of more than 27 inches, but display analysts have told that the device will continue to come at the exact size of 27 inches. Similar to MacBook Pro, the device is expected to have USB-C/Thunderbolt Ports, an SD card slot, and an HDMI port as part of its port configuration. An ethernet port might also be featured. According to the reports from MacRumors, the device will use the M1 Pro and M1 Max chips, both of which have ten core CPUs. There could be an extra high-end configuration for the device as well. The M1 Pro and M1 Max sport a 16 Graphic core and a 32 Graphic core, respectively.Pricing and Availability of iMac ProAs of now, the iMac Pro is anticipated to be unveiled in the first half of the next year. Reports suggest that it might be launched before or at WWDC. The device will act as a replacement for the 27-inch iMac which still uses an Intel processor. The price of iMac is anticipated to start somewhere in the range of $2000. |

The device was also launched globally by the makers in Europe and other global markets branded as Poco M4 Pro 5G. However, the device was not launched in the Indian market.

Moreover, the rumored price for the Xiaomi's latest is expected to start from Rs 15,999 and more details are expected as the launch date approaches. |
| Vodafone Idea Strengthening B2B Operations, Hiring New People Posted: 13 Nov 2021 02:41 AM PST  Vodafone Idea (Vi) is looking at the future and strengthening its Business-to-Business (B2B) arm called Vi Business. Formerly known as Vodafone Idea Business Services, Vi Business focuses on delivering and fulfilling the needs of enterprise customers. Vodafone Idea is currently looking to hire people for the 'Segment & Content Marketing' role, which will be a full-time job categorised as entry-level in nature. In a LinkedIn post, the company has mentioned the job would require people to drive content-based differentiation and segment based engagement programs to influence customer buying behaviours across industries and segments. The responsibility of the person would involve making content that would reach and engage new buyers. Vodafone Idea has mentioned that the desired skills and experience required is that the applicant should be familiar with content marketing, marketing, social media, telecom marketing, content management, digital marketing, and B2B marketing. Vodafone Idea is currently accepting applications for the same through its LinkedIn profile. The pay range is unavailable at the moment. Interested candidates can visit the LinkedIn profile of the company to understand the job and its requirements in detail. Vodafone Idea Realises the Potential of B2BWith businesses and the world turning digital, telecom services aren't just limited to the basic internet and calling needs of regular consumers. Even businesses need internet connectivity and that too in a different scale, different manner, and capacity. With 5G coming by 2023, the role of B2B services and revenues would grow further everywhere in the world. Vi Business already provides multiple services, including Internet of Things (IoT), mobility, connectivity, security, cloud, and communications, to enterprises across India. But the reach of Vi Business is fairly limited, and it would require a strong content marketing team behind the scenes to change that. Vodafone Idea actively investing in hiring new people to do better jobs is a good sign for the company and the telecom sector of India. |
| Starlink Might Introduce New Type of Dish for India Posted: 12 Nov 2021 11:42 PM PST  Starlink Might Go With Rectangular Dish in IndiaOne of the advantages of a smaller rectangular dish would be that users will get more freedom for placing the dish wherever they want. They can even place it in their garden or ground nearby with the long-pole without having the need to put it on the roof. The connection can be pre-booked in India from Starlink's website. However, there's one thing that you must consider. The pre-booking amount is just a fraction of the cost that you will have to pay. Outside India, Starlink charges $99 a month for its users to access satellite broadband internet. On top of that, users have to pay $499 or Rs 37,095 approximately for getting the hardware kit from the company, which includes a power supply, Wi-Fi router, stand, and antenna. Starlink has said that it will subsidise the cost of the overall connection heavily in India. There's no change in price between the circular or the rectangular antenna kit. According to Gwynne Shotwell, regardless of what Starlink is charging for the hardware, it is still a loss for the company as its production cost is too high. |
| Airtel Offers 2.5GB Daily Data With Rs 349 Plan, Check Complete Details Posted: 12 Nov 2021 09:18 PM PST  Bharti Airtel, India's second-largest telecom operator, has a unique prepaid plan in its arsenal. The private telco is working around attracting new customers and retaining the old ones by offering such prepaid plans. The plan that we are talking about comes for Rs 349. It is not very pocket friendly, though. Users only get 28 days of validity with the Rs 349 plan. This prepaid offering from Airtel suits people who have heavy data needs. An average user doesn't require such hefty data plans. The total amount of data that is offered with the plan is 70GB. This plan also comes with unlimited voice calling and 100 SMS/day. But that is not all. There are Airtel Thanks benefits included, which allows users to access Apollo 24|7 Circle for three months at no additional cost, Shaw Academy, Wynk Music, and a major benefit of Amazon Prime membership. BSNL Rs 398 Voucher Could be a Good AlternativeBharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) offers users a Rs 398 data plan for 30 days. This plan offers unlimited data without any fair-usage-policy (FUP) restrictions, along with unlimited voice calling and 100 SMS/day. There are no additional benefits like you get with Airtel's plan, but it is worth considering that you get truly unlimited data and that too for 30 days. There are other prepaid plans in the same range that can also be a good option. Such as the Rs 299 plan from Vodafone Idea. It offers 4GB of daily data to the users for 28 days. In hindsight, this plan is cheaper than both Airtel and BSNL's plans mentioned above and also offers more than a decent amount of data to the users. The Rs 299 plan from Vodafone Idea is also bundled with the Weekend Data Rollover and Binge All Night offers, along with an over-the-top (OTT) benefit of Vi Movies & TV. Vi's plan is a strong contender and arguably the best amongst the three. |
