Qualcomm

Qualcomm is soon expected to launch multiple new Snapdragon chipsets for smartphones. One of those chipsets is expected to be Snapdragon 8 Gen1 Plus. The chipset might go live by May 2022. But nothing has been hinted by Qualcomm so far. In addition to this, Qualcomm might launch a new Snapdragon 7 series chipset for smartphones.

A popular tipster who goes by the name Digital Chat Station (DCS) has revealed some of the key features of the new Snapdragon 7 series chipset that might launch alongside the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 Plus.

New Snapdragon 7 Series Chip, What It Might Come With

The new Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 series chip might come with four Cortex-A710 cores clocking at 2.36 GHz and four Cortex-A510 cores clocking at 1.80 GHz. The new Snapdragon 7 series chipset will be a 4nm SoC which will include Adreno 662 GPU. The chipset might be manufactured by Samsung, said DCS. New smartphones powered by the chipset are already in the works.

The new Snapdragon 8 Gen1 Plus chipset is expected to go live by May this year and the new Snapdragon 7 series SoC is also expected to become official alongside it. The new chipset from Qualcomm might be called Snapdragon 7 Gen1.

Smartphone OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) including Motorola, Lenovo, Xiaomi, and OnePlus are reportedly already working on smartphones powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1 Plus.

Motorola might be the first smartphone company in the world to launch a smartphone powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1 Plus. The Motorola smartphone that might feature this flagship chipset is Edge 30 Ultra (codenamed Frontier).

In addition to this, Lenovo's Legion gaming smartphone along with Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip4 and more might feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1 Plus.

Xiaomi's Redmi Note 12 series might become one of the first to launch with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen1 chipsets. May is not far from here and thus the official information regarding these chipsets might arrive soon.

Apple WWDC 2022 to Commence From June 6 as a Complete Online Event

Posted: 05 Apr 2022 09:17 PM PDT

Apple WWDC 2022

The Cupertino-based tech giant Apple is all set to commence its annual developer conference from June 6 and is going to be completely online this year as well. Apple has announced the dates for its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2022 today, according to which the conference beginning on June 6 will end on June 10. Notably, it will be a free online event for anyone to attend and it will be streamed online. Let's take a closer look at what we can expect from WWDC 2022.

What Can We Expect?

It will not really be surprising if Apple announces a bunch of new features and announcements related to its wide-ranging portfolio of products that include iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS. Not only this, but it is also highly possible that Apple makes announcements related to its next-gen Apple M2 silicon or Apple's much rumoured VR headset.

That being said, the hardware and software announcements from the company will be for its consumers across the globe. As far as the developers are considered, this year's five-day-long event will give them access to Apple engineers as well as technologies to learn how to create apps and interactive experiences for the Apple ecosystem.

According to Apple, more than 30 million developers across the globe will be able to get their hands on technologies and tools to bring their visions into reality at the WWDC 2022. Speculations suggest that the event will commence with a keynote from Apple's CEO and other senior executives including Tim Cook on June 6. Other things that can be expected from WWDC 2022 include multiple information sessions, learning labs, more digital lounges to engage with attendees, and more localized content.

Even though the majority of the event has been scheduled online, Apple has scheduled a special day for developers and students at Apple Park on June 6 to watch the keynote and State of the Union videos together. It will be a limited seat event, the details of which will be shared on the Apple Developer site and app soon. Moreover, a related recent report suggests that the upcoming M2 chipset from the company is under mass production and is likely that it will be announced at WWDC 2022.

Twitter Says Working on Edit Button Since Last Year

Posted: 05 Apr 2022 08:27 PM PDT

Twitter, a microblogging platform, currently doesn't allow its users to make changes to their tweets after they have been posted. Users can either delete the tweet and repost it if there's a typo or just leave it like that. But very soon, Twitter users might see an edit button coming to the platform. Through this button, they should be able to make edits to the tweets they are sending out.

Twitter Confirms Edit Button

Jay Sullivan, Head of Consumer Product, Twitter, said that they have been working on an edit feature in a safe manner since last year and plan to begin testing it with TwitterBlue labs in the coming months.

But there are a lot of things that Twitter is considering and taking input on before it rolls out this feature for the users at mass.

Sullivan said that without things such as time limits, controls, and transparency about what has been edited, the 'Edit' feature could be misused by the users to alter records of public conversations, which makes sense.

Thus, the edit feature might take a little time to come to the platform, but it will come nonetheless. Elon Musk, a popular businessman globally, purchased a 9.2% stake in Twitter and became the largest shareholder in the company.

Musk had initially asked users whether they would like an edit button on the Twitter app. The response to this question has been largely towards that users want one Edit button.

The edit button is actually a feature that should have come on the application a few years back. While the company has concerns regarding it, some provisions could have been made years back. Twitter can show users the edited tweet as well as give them an option to look at the original tweet before the edit so that public records can be maintained with full transparency and no user could manipulate the data and conversations on the platform.
