The installed browser will spontaneously block the unwanted downloads from malicious web pages. The company has even streamlined the changes as to how different websites track the varied users through a browser.

LG Has Officially Quit Making Phones

Many were surprised when LG officially announced that they will not be manufacturing any cellphones in the future. LG bid farewell to smartphones this year. However, the rumours have been going around for several weeks. The company has taken the strategic decision to officially shut down its entire apparatus of mobile units. 

Since LG will not be manufacturing phones anymore, they are determined to channelize they’re resources to more dynamic sectors like Electric Vehicles and Smart Homes. It seems that LG might be successful in topping these sectors since they have displayed their technological creativity many times in the past

But don’t be disheartened if you already own an LG phone or are inclined towards buying LG V60 or LG Velvet because it will still be tended to by the company. Both the products will stay in the inventory and are pegged to be in the stores and on online platforms. Furthermore, the pertinent service support and requisite updates will stay intact for all the existing LG users. So, decidedly there will not be any new instalment to the LG series. 

The company expects to accomplish the winding-up process by the end of July 31, but customers can buy the product even after that stipulated date. The tech giant from South Korea finally came this decision after registering consecutive losses over the years, despite being the trailblazer in the incredibly competitive Android world. 

Way forward for LG

Robotics is one prevalent avenue that the company might tap into in the future and mark its indelible presence in tandem with artificial intelligence. After being acknowledged worldwide as one of the colossal brands in the android arena and even being listed in the top three smartphone companies in the year 2013, the feats have somehow faded by the cutthroat competition from the ever-expanding market and relentless tech companies.

The popularity was to most extent devoured by the advent of formidable Chinese ventures like Xiaomi and Oppo with their aesthetic rendering to the customers and continues to do so across the international borders. According to the statistics relayed by Counterpoint Research last year, unobtrusive LG failed to even enlist itself in the top seven companies worldwide, despite being the third most predominant vendor of smartphones in the countries like the USA, just striding behind tech giants like Apple and Samsung (According to  Canalys).

What others think?

“LG left a small vacuum of the market share of approximately 2% globally’’, asserted Neil Shah (Vice president of widely acknowledged research firm Counterpoint Research). Now, this void will eventually be successfully filled by a trailblazer like Samsung and other small players especially in countries like South Korea and the United States of America.

People on social media met LG’s decision with great nostalgia. Many users showed their appreciation for the brand by posting the picture of their very first LG phone.

LG introduced a one of its kind, curved smartphone in 2013. It became one of the first company to have introduced this  futuristic technology in the smartphone market. Additionally, LG brought its last renditiong to light a few months ago. They unveiled a phone that could be easily rolled up to be morphed into a tablet.

LG has always been in the limelight for its unconventional and innovative renditions of smartphones. However, LG often did not receive an overwhelming response for these features.

LG brought forward many technologies during the last two decades. Many of the current products will undeniably retain and build on them.

Key Features of C20, C21 and C25

Realme has put their core focus on the battery and camera quality on the C20 and C21, which can be guessed from their tagline,”Big Battery, Clear Shots”.

Amazefit to launch in India

Nowadays, more and more people want to connect and stay around with technology to relax and advance. For that, we already have lots of the latest technology like mobile phones, computers, laptops, and other digital devices.

However, the innovators were not stopping and invented smartwatches. Small innovation leads the world to a much better place these days, as it helps a lot to humans.

This article will talk about one of the best companies, Huami, primarily known for their Smartwatches. Since 2014, they keep launching various watch versions, and this time they also came up with an outstanding model named “Amazfit Bip U Pro.”

Amazfit Bip U Pro is already listed on the platform Amazon. All the functions and features are explained in detail on that page. It also includes the specification of upcoming Huami PRO models.

The model Bip U has up-gradation with adding two key components. The first one is GPS service build-in, and the second one is voice assistant command by Alexa.

However, the company Huami hasn’t declared the date of the launch of Amazfit Bip U Pro.

Interestingly, Amazfit was already launched with 3,499 INR pricing and currently available for just 3,599 INR on the Amazon platform. It is predicted that Bip U PRO’s cost might be under 5,000 INR at the initial moment.

Specification of Amazfit Bip U

The Bip U will come with an LCD panel of 1.43 inches with pixels resolutions of 320 x 302. Surprisingly, it will have around 50 watch frames options for its users at the Zepp application.

The significant up-gradation is to add a built-in GPS service, which wasn’t there in the version of Bip U vanilla. Moreover, they also announced that they added the voice command feature also in it. Interestingly, this voice command is supported by Alexa. This service is already running in GTR and GTS premium series.

You can ask a different type of question Alexa by using the in-built microphone. For instance, you can tell Amazfit to set a timer, alarm, or ask about the weather and environment using voice command.

The feature personally I like the most is the built-in GPS service. So, you can leave your mobile phone at your home while playing any sports, morning walk, running, doing exercise, and many more, and let your Huami band calculate all the moments of yours.

If we talk about other eye-catching features, then it has many; however, there are pretty few differences apart from above between Bip U and U Pro models.

Both these models have a Bio Tracker, a heart rate monitor system of 2 PPG, to measure the blood’s oxygen level; it has a SpO2 sensor. Other life hacking tools are healthy sleep monitoring, breathing exercises, stress tracking, and menstrual cycle monitoring.

Of course, battery life is significant if we talk about digital devices. Surprisingly, both Amazfit new models claim that they can last at least nine days on a single battery charge. The battery life will vary on how many times you use the GPS and Alexa voice command feature.
