Samsung Galaxy M32 Gets a Rs 2000 Price Cut in India

Samsung Galaxy M32 5G

It has been a year since the Galaxy M32 first launched in India. The smartphone came in two variants – 4GB+64GB and 6GB+128GB for Rs 14,999 and Rs 16,999, respectively. After a year, Samsung has discounted the smartphone by Rs 2,000. Both the variants have received a price cut. The base variant is now available for Rs 12,999 and the superior variant is now available for Rs 14,999. This price cut makes sense as it has been over 12 months since the device first came to India. Let's take a look at the specifications of the smartphone to see whether it is worth it or not.

Samsung Galaxy M32 Specifications

The Samsung Galaxy M32 was launched with 6.4-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED display with support for 90Hz refresh rate. It can support maximum brightness of 800nits and will run on Android 11 with One UI 3.1. There are two nano SIM-Card slots and the device is powered by the MediaTek Helio G80 SoC coupled with up to 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage.

In the optics department, the Samsung Galaxy M32 comes with a quad-camera setup at the rear with a 64MP primary sensor, 8MP ultra-wide-angle sensor, 2MP macro sensor, and a 2MP depth sensor. For selfies and video calling, there's a 30MP sensor at the front. The internal storage is expandable via a microSD card.

This is not a 5G smartphone. In the connectivity department, this smartphone supports 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and also has a 3.5mm audio jack. For additional security, the device comes with a fingerprint sensor mounted on top of the power button on the side. The device packs a massive 6000mAh battery and supports 25W fast charging.

The Samsung Galaxy M32 could be a decent option after the price cut. The display is decent and the battery specifications are also good. The only drawback is that it is not a 5G smartphone.

Mavenir Working With MNOs Across Germany, UK to Deliver CB Functionality

Mavenir

Mavenir, a rapidly growing network software provider today announced that it is working with multiple Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) across Germany and the UK for delivering Cell Broadcast (CB) functionality. For the unaware, CB is a technical specification maintained by the 3GPP. It is basically a method of sending messages to several mobile telephone users in a defined area at the same time.

This technology and functionality come in handy when the users living in a certain area need to be alerted about something dangerous such as natural disasters, earthquakes, terrorist attacks, public unrest and more.

MNOs Need to Implement CB Functionality

Brandon Larson, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Mavenir's Multimedia Business Unit said MNOs steadily need to implement CB to safeguard their users and strengthen mobile messaging capabilities.

A right message to a user at the right time can save not just one but many lives. Telcos across the globe need to get working with the CB technology and take help from players such as Mavenir to implement it.

Mavenir is already working with MNOs globally and the company can potentially help telcos with the implementation of CB functionality in a very effective and efficient manner.

Google Pixel Device Features that May Come to Other Android Phones Soon

Car crash detection, a unique safety function available on Google Pixel devices, immediately calls emergency services when a crash is detected. Non-Pixel Android phones may soon get access to the technology that employs motion sensors in a smartphone to identify accidents. A news series of codes allegedly discovered in Google's most recent Personal Safety app raises the possibility that other Android phones may soon receive new safety measures. Android phones are anticipated to acquire crisis alert and safety check capabilities in addition to the car crash detection capability.

More about the new feature

On Google Pixel 3 and subsequent devices in specific locations with specific carriers, Google's car crash detection is currently accessible. As already indicated, the feature makes use of sensors to locate the phone and motion sensors as well as adjacent sounds to identify car crashes. When the Battery Saver or Airplane mode is turned on, the feature does not function. The phone calls emergency services when a collision is detected, and Android's Emergency Position Service sends the approximate location and crash information to the emergency services.

When analysing the most recent version of the Personal Safety app, 9to5Google used an APK breakdown to discover the spread of the car crash detection capability to other Android devices. Google Play currently offers the Personal Safety app in version 2022.05.25. The article revealed code strings that mentioned "non pixel" phones, suggesting that Google may be delivering the safety feature to the non-Pixel phones. The article claims that Google modified the code in some instances to generalise "your device" rather that "Pixel." Other Android phones are apparently getting some Pixel-only capabilities, such as crisis notifications and safety checks.

Since the new feature requires a few permission to operate, it's unclear how the company would bring the functionality to Android phones that don't have pixels. The Google Play Services should soon include the Personal Safety features. At this time, it is unknown what Android handsets will initially have access to the car crash detection and other new safety features. Brand-by-brand availability is probably the case.
