Google Photos has rolled out new features that make editing videos much easier and more powerful. With a host of AI-powered tools, users can now edit their favorite videos into amazing clips that are perfect for sharing. Whether you want to enhance colors, stabilize footage, or add creative effects, the updated Google Photos video editor has it covered. Here’s a look at the new features that are being introduced.
Easy-to-Use Interface: When you press the ‘Edit’ button while viewing a video, the editing tools can be displayed in a cleaner and more organized manner.
Auto Enhance: This new button does exactly what the name suggests. With a single tap, you can automatically enhance the colors and stabilize your video.
Speed Tool: A newly added Speed tool lets you control the speed of your video. You can speed it up or slow it down.
Improved Trim Tool: Now, users can finely control where they want to cut their video to create the perfect clip.
AI-Powered Presets
One of the standout additions is the introduction of AI-powered video presets. These presets allow you to perform multiple edits with just a few taps. Google says these presets can automatically:
Trim your video
Adjust the lighting for better visibility
Control the speed of the video
Apply special effects like dynamic motion tracking and zooming for a more engaging visual experience
Better Editing Without Third-Party Apps
Earlier, many users had to rely on third-party apps like TikTok and Instagram for advanced video editing because Google Photos lacked these capabilities. However, with these new AI features, the app now offers much more robust video editing tools.
Google has announced that these new video editing tools are rolling out to all Android and iOS users. However, it can take some time before they appear on all devices.

Telegram will disclose phone numbers, IP addresses to authorities during legal investigations
Privacy advocates are concerned about potential misuse of the policy
The policy change may prompt privacy-focused users to seek alternative platforms
Telegram has made a significant update to its privacy policy. With this update, Telegram’s strategy has changed. It will enable the sharing of users’ IP addresses and phone numbers with law enforcement upon request for legal investigations. Although the aim of the policy is to combat severe crimes like child exploitation and terrorism, worries about user privacy and possible government overreach have been raised by the shift.
In the past, Telegram has refused government requests for access to user data. And for those looking for secrecy and anonymity, this made it a preferred platform. However, Telegram has had to reconsider its position in light of mounting international pressure and escalating legal requirements. The revised policy is in response to requests from law enforcement, especially where serious offenses are involved.
Balancing Privacy And Legal Obligations
According to Telegram’s revised policy, the platform will only release user information in cases of serious criminal activity. The aim is to strike a balance between complying with legal requirements and maintaining its commitment to user privacy. Telegram continues to provide features like end-to-end encryption for secret chats.
However, this change introduces new concerns for privacy advocates. They fear that the term “serious crimes” may be too vague. This will potentially leave the door open for misuse by certain governments. Countries with varying legal standards could exploit this policy to target activists, dissenters, or political opponents under the pretext of investigating criminal activity.
This policy shift has raised uncertainty among Telegram’s more privacy-conscious users. Despite assurances that the change applies only to extreme cases, some users may look to alternative platforms that offer stricter privacy measures.

I have always been a fan of OnePlus’ Nord series. Why? Well because it offers quality features in budget-friendly price. And now, they have done it again with the Nord Buds 3. I moment I hit the play button on my favorite playlists, these buds gave me that “wow” factor. So, if you are like me who always look for that perfect balance between performance and affordability, the you stick around through this and see what makes these buds a worth buy.
When it comes to design, OnePlus has once again nailed it. The charging case of OnePlus Nord Buds 3 has a pebble-like shape which I think looks premium. I received the Melodic White variant as my review unit. It is lightweight and portable, making it easy to carry around. At the bottom of the case, there is a USB Type-C port for quick charging. You will also see a small button next to it that allows you to connect a second device. The LED light at the front shows the battery status at a glance.
Now if we talk about the earbuds, they follow a traditional in-ear design with silicone tips in three sizes, that is, Small, Medium, and Large. I found the medium size to be a perfect fit and felt no discomfort even after a long usage. You will see the L and R symbols on the respective earbuds that double as vents for the drivers. Their broader stem provides a firm grip. The clear indentation on the stem makes it simple to find the touch buttons. Overall, the OnePlus Nord Buds 3 are lightweight, compact, and comfortable to wear.
Audio Performance
The 12.4mm extra-large drivers and OnePlus’ BassWave 2.0 technology are included with the OnePlus Nord Buds 3. You will get deep, powerful bass if, like me, you are a bass enthusiast. I like music with a lot of bass, so I was happy to hear the low-end punch. However, in some genres, the bass can feel a bit too dominant and overshadows the highs and mids.
But if you want even more, the BassWave Enhancement 2.0 lets you manually boost the bass to your liking. For those who prefer more balance, there are four EQ presets, that is, Balanced, Serenade, and Bass. Also, you can create a custom EQ to tweak the sound to your preference.
OnePlus 3D Audio is available on select OnePlus devices, including models like the OnePlus 11, OnePlus 12, and Nord 4.
The OnePlus Nord Buds 3 offers solid ANC for its price. With 32dB ANC, it blocks out ambient noise. It also provides you with Transparency mode. This allows you to hear ambient sounds when needed, such as crossing the street or honking. It even turns on automatically when you remove one earbud, which I think is great for quick interactions.
As for call quality, the AI-powered noise reduction and dual ENC microphones perform well. During outdoor calls, wind noise was completely eliminated for the receiver, though faint traffic sounds were still audible. Overall, it handles everyday noise effectively.
Connectivity And Pairing
Connecting devices to the OnePlus Nord Buds 3 is quite simple. For OnePlus smartphone users, you just have to on your Bluetooth, open the charging case near your phone, and follow the instructions. For non-OnePlus devices, you can easily pair by putting the earbuds in the charging case, then press the setup button for 2 seconds, and select the Nord Buds 3 in your Bluetooth settings. Fast Pairing works effortlessly on Android devices. You will need the case to rejoin, though, as the phone pairs with the case rather than the buds directly.
If we talk about the dual connection feature, it is quite convenient to use. It let me connect to two devices simultaneously and switching between them is super easy. If you are using a OnePlus or Realme phone, you can customize controls directly from the settings. For other devices, the HeyMelody app on Android and iOS gets the job done.

To be frank, the OnePlus Nord Buds 3 truly shines in the department. I enjoyed over 11-12 hours of playback without ANC on a single charge. If paired with the charging case, that number skyrocketed to an impressive 43 hours, which I think is among the best in its class. Also, the fast-charging feature is a lifesaver. I charged it for just 10-12 minutes and got 10 extra hours of playback. This is just perfect for when I was in a rush or on the go.
What sets these earbuds apart is their TÜV Rheinland Battery Health certification. Even after 1,000 charging cycles, the battery retains 80 percent of its original capacity.
For the price of Rs. 1,899, the OnePlus Nord Buds 3 offers good sound quality, solid ANC, and a comfortable design. This is undoubtedly a great value-for-money option. While it may lack some advanced features found in pricier models, it delivers well on the essentials, especially for bass lovers and casual users.

Alright, let’s picture this: You are relaxing in your favorite spot at your home and ready to get into your next gaming adventure. But, instead for reaching for a bulky and huge laptop, you take soothing smaller and unexpected. That is when you realize you are holding the Lenovo Legion Tab. This is a compact powerhouse that is designed to surprise you. It is lightweight, fits perfectly in your one hand, but do not its size fool you. Lenovo has taken their Legion gaming reputation and unfolded it into this portable device. Now, here’s the real question. Can this tiny tablet really keep up with the demands of a hardcore gamer? Through this thorough review, let’s find out.
At first look, the Lenovo Legion look like a regular tablet. It has a sleek and clean design that gives it a minimalistic yet premium vibe. I have received the Storm Grey color variant which looks elegant. The tablet is made using the metal mostly except for the display and its bezels. It feels solid and durable in hand. Its smaller display makes it much more comfortable while playing games. And at just 350 grams, it is impressively light.
Now coming to the ports and buttons. A MicroSD card slot and a 10Gbps USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 2) port that enables display port, OTG, and charging are located on the left side. The power and volume controls are located on the right side. The top and bottom have speaker grills. Besides, you will also find a USB 2.0 port at the bottom for OTG and charging functionality.
Display
The Lenovo Legion Tab has a decent display for its size. It comes with 8.8-inch display with 2560 x 1600p resolution. I immediately noticed it smoothness thatnks to its 144Hz refresh rate that makes gaming a lot smoother. This is especially useful for fast-paced games like BGMI that supports up to 120fps. You can even lock the refresh rate at 144Hz or adjust it according to your need.
The display also supports Dolby Vision HDR10. That means, watching movies or binge-watching your favorite web series is a treat. I watched the Kalki 2898 AD on this laptop and the colors and clarity were great. However, the tablet is not great for outdoor use because of reflections. Anyways, I didn’t mind, since most of my gaming happens indoors.
The screen’s 16:10 aspect ratio and pixel density of 343 ppi make everything crisp. It is a great screen for both gaming and entertainment. I personally found it a solid upgrade from using my phone for the same tasks.
The Lenovo Legion Tab is powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip. During my gaming sessions, I did not notice any issues with graphics or frame rates. I played BGMI at max settings for around 15-20 minutes, and although the tablet got slightly warm, it never became uncomfortably hot. Games like Shadow Fight 4 and Call of Duty ran smoothly. Honestly, I enjoyed playing them more on the Legion Tab than on my phone. If I talk about my experience, it took me some time to get used to the larger screen controls. But once I got the hang of it, going back to my phone felt awkward.
Now coming to the sound. It was a nice surprise. It is loud with decent bass, something you don’t usually get with most tablets or phones. The Android 14 OS on the tablet felt familiar. The tablet does have two USB-C ports: one on the top and one on the bottom. This made it easy to charge no matter how I was holding the device, whether in handheld mode or upheld up on a table. It is a small detail, but it made a big difference during gameplay.
Camera
The Lenovo Legion Tab has a 13MP rear camera. For a tablet, it performs decently. It has basic features like a flashlight and HDR mode. During the day, the camera takes quite good pictures, which is more than enough for casual use. The 2X zoom feature surprised me, as zoomed-in pictures sometimes looked better than normal ones.
The front 8MP camera is alright for selfies and video calls, with average detail. The rear camera can also record videos in 4K at 30FPS, which is a nice bonus for quick video clips.
Battery
For me, the battery life on the Lenovo Legion Tab has been good. Even after long sessions of watching videos, gaming, browsing, and doing some light work like typing, the battery lasted about two days on average. Anyways, the battery life varies depending upon the settings, the game you are playing, the time duration. But it holds up pretty well overall.
The price of the Lenovo Legion Tab is Rs. 39,999. Its small size makes it a fantastic choice for gamers who are often on the run. Even if we put gaming on the back foot, the tablet is still a highly capable device for daily tasks. Even though it might not be the least expensive tablet, it is an ideal option for gamers searching for a small, powerful device.
