The official renders shared by the publication also give a clean look to the rear panel. At the back, the company has opted for a vertical grid design where the surface seems to have a mix of matte and gradient textures.
The back panel has a big square camera module that packs a single large camera sensor for photography. The Realme C30’s render images also the volume keys along with the power key on the right edge of the handset, while the SIM card tray is positioned on the left spine. The bottom panel is also visible in the render images which shows the USB Type-C port placed in between the 3.5mm headphone jack along with the speaker grille. Seems like Realme is getting its game stronger in the budget segment with unique design patterns.

Apple iOS 16 Key Features To Check Out
New iOS 16 Updated Lock Screen
One of the major changes that iOS 16 brings to all iPhones and iPads is the revamped Lock Screen. Apple has enhanced the Lock Screen features with several user-friendly options. The iOS 16 is more personalized with the re-designed widgets and a multilayer effect for photos set for the lock screen. Users will now be able to add third-party widgets as well to the lock screen. Additionally, the iOS 16 will also display full-screen album art on the home screen. An updated Notification bar has also been introduced with the iOS 16. The new Notification bar integrates several functions such as live tracking of uber cabs along with activity tracking.
iOS Maps Update (iOS 16)

The Apple Maps gets several set of improvements such as an advanced multi-stop route feature wherein one can add up to 15 stops via Siri. iOS 16 has also added transit updates for the users that will allow users to calculate the estimated fare for a trip.

iQOO has been fairly active in the Android smartphone space and presenting the masses with high-end gaming phones at budget price points. The iQOO 9 series was the brand’s this year’s most premium smartphone lineup in the global market. Now, the company has started working on its successor called the iQOO 10. The upcoming iQOO phone is expected with an upgraded set of specifications than its precursor. But the fast-charging support would be its USP. We are looking at a massive 200W charger that Vivo has started manufacturing that will possibly be shipped with the upcoming iQOO 10. Here are the details:
iQOO 10 Pro To Ship With 200W Fast Charger
iQOO is expected to introduce the iQOO 10 series sometime in the third quarter of 2022. The exact timeline is yet to be revealed by the leaks as well as officially. However, the expected models are the iQOO 10 Pro and the iQOO 10 SE besides the vanilla iQOO 10. In the latest development, the tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed the charger details of the iQOO 10 Pro variant.
The leak shared by the tipster suggests iQOO will be using a 200W fast charging technology. This is the fastest charging speed that will be offered by the Chinese tech giant on any of its flagship Android mobiles. Currently, the maximum charging speed offered by the top-of-the-line iQOO smartphones is up to 80W. A 200w fast wired charging speed is undeniably an exponential development when we speak of iQOO phones.
The detail shared by the tipster mentions the V200100L0B0-CN model number for the charger adapter. It is a 200W adapter as mentioned above with 20V at 10A charging capacity. It is worth mentioning that Xiaomi has also confirmed a flagship phone with the same 200W fast charging technology.
However, the exact model name and the availability details of the Xiaomi Android phone with 200W charging speeds. We are not also sure if the remaining iQOO 10 series phones will be packed with the same charging speeds or just the iQOO 10 Pro model. The remaining iQOO 10 Pro specifications are also not known at this point. However, we can expect new-generation Sndpadragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset and more.
Realme introduced its mid-range Realme 9 series in India earlier this year. The Realme 9i arrived as the first model followed by the standard Realme 9 and the Realme 9 Pro. Only the latter two (vanilla and Pro) models have been made available with 5G connectivity, while the Realme 9i ships with the standard 4G network connectivity. But if things go as planned, the Realme 9i will soon be launched with 5G-network connectivity in the Indian market. A new report has tipped the upcoming Realme 9i 5G’s India launch timeline alongside the configuration and color options. Take a look at the details:
Realme 9i 5G India Launch Details Are Out
The Realme 9i 5G isn’t too far from making its debut in the Indian market. The latest report via 91Mobiles reveals Realme is planning to launch the Realme 9i 5G model in the country this month itself. Unfortunately, the report only mentions the June 2022 launch timeline for the Realme 9i 5G in India. The exact date is yet to be confirmed.
Notably, the arrival details for the upcoming Realme budget 5G phone have been tipped by the publication currently. An official nod by Realme on this timeline is yet to come. But that could be anytime soon since the launch timeline is scheduled for this month itself. Realme will likely share a teaser confirming the launch timeline as well as the key features.
The report also hints at the storage and RAM configuration along with the pricing details of the Realme 9i 5G. The 5G variant of the Realme 9i is said to come in three different configurations including 4GB RAM+ 64GB storage, 4GB RAM+ 128GB storage, and 6GB RAM+ 128GB storage configuration.
We can also expect an external microSD card storage support, but the exact capacity would be difficult to guess. The Realme 9i 5G color options revealed by this new leak include blue, black, and golden. But what about the remaining specifications? What all changes the 5G variant will feature compared to the Realme 9i 4G model?
Well, as of now, only the upcoming launch timeline is known for the Realme 9i 5G. We are yet to know the hardware features specifically the changes it will pack compared to the vanilla Realme 9i. We probably will see a changed chipset instead. If it will be a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset like the previous model or a MediaTek Dimensity series chipset will be confirmed in the coming days.

Additionally, the Nothing Phone (1) will be coming with a “No Chin” design as per this report. This information corroborates with the past leaks stating a super-slim bezel profile.

WhatsApp is currently amongst the top instant messaging applications available for Android and iOS mobile users. This app is also being preferred by laptop and PC users nowadays. The Meta-owned messaging platform has introduced a plethora of features and tools for both mobile and desktop versions. Several of the features have been borrowed from Instagram and Facebook itself. One of such options has been the option to delete any sent message. The brand did bring this feature, but users have been accidentally selecting the wrong option that is now being taken care of by WhatsApp with the upcoming update. The “undo” option for deleted messages is the feature we are speaking of. Here’s how you can undo the deleted messages on WhatsApp:
How To Undo Deleted Messages On WhatsApp?
WhatsApp currently gives three options to the users to delete any message including “Delete For Me”, “Cancel”, and “Delete for everyone”. However, there is a tendency where users tap on the “Delete for me” option instead of “Delete for everyone”. This doesn’t remove the message from the chat screen of other users. WhatsApp has acknowledged users’ complaints on the same.
The upcoming feature on which WhatsApp is now working will now enable the option to undo any deleted messages. The development has been tipped by Wabetainfo which is known for tracking all WhatsApp latest updates. The report suggests this “undo” deleted messages option is currently under testing. It is already made available for Android beta build v 2.22.13.5.
Currently, WhatsApp has not confirmed if it has any plans to release a stable update for this feature. But we would likely come across some more developments on the same in the coming weeks. This option to delete and undo the deleted texts will be available for both Android and iOS devices. We might see this feature on the desktop version going further. But the exact timeline is difficult to guess just yet.
As for the procedure, the exact steps will only be confirmed when this feature is released. But going by the reports, we can expect the “undo” tab to pop up as soon as any of the messages is being deleted.
Step 1: Open any chat window on WhatsApp.
Step 2: Select the message that you want to delete.
Step 3: Once you click on the “delete for me” or delete for “everyone” option, you will can another option, i.e, “Undo”. Select it to retrieve the deleted message and then perform the right action.
