What is an IMEI number?

What is an IMEI number? An IMEI number is a 15-digit that is unique to your mobile device. You can find this code in the box that your phone came in, or you can simply look for it in the ‘Phone Details’ section of your phone settings. If your phone comes with a detachable battery, it may have the IMEI number printed on the panel below the battery pack. If your phone ever gets lost or stolen, you can use the IMEI code to block all functionality of the device. You can even use the IMEI code to track your lost device.

How to block a mobile phone using an IMEI number

How to block a mobile phone using an IMEI number If your phone gets stolen, and you’re worried it may be used for any malicious activities, you can get it blocked using the IMEI number. The Govt. of India has launched a CEIR (Central Equipment Identity Register) Portal, using which you can block your lost or stolen device. Just follow these simple steps: Step 1: File a report of the missing device with the police and keep a copy of the report. Step 2: Get a duplicate SIM card for the lost number from your telecom service provider. A duplicate SIM card is necessary since CEIR requires it to send an OTP while accepting the IMEI blocking request. Step 3: Keep the police report ready, along with proof of identity. The mobile purchase invoice is also a valid document. Step 4: Go to the CEIR Portal and fill out the request form to block the IMEI number. Step 5: After submission of the request form, you will be given a Request ID. This ID can be used to track the status of the request form and unblock the IMEI if your device gets recovered in future.

How to track your device using the IMEI number

Seek the help of the police to track your phone

After you’ve filed the police report for your missing phone, the police will use the IMEI number to track the location of your device. The police can track the mobile phone even when you’ve blocked the IMEI number on the CEIR Portal. Once someone changes the SIM card on your device or uses the existing SIM card to make a call, the location of the device is triangulated to the nearest cell tower. If your device is recovered, you can fill out a form on the CEIR portal to unblock the IMEI number.

Use an IMEI Tracker app

If you’re looking for an efficient way to track your phone using its IMEI number, consulting the police is your safest bet. However, if you want to take matters into your own hands then there are a few apps that may help you. Find My Device (IMEI Tracker) is one such app. Upon signing up on the app, it will ask you for a couple of phone numbers to send updates to. Once someone changes the SIM card on your stolen device and makes a call, you will receive the location information of your device on the phone numbers you have entered. The location will keep updating as the device moves. You can view the location on Google Maps.

Use an online IMEI tracker

Mid-year: Best smartphones seen so far in 2022

2022 has already seen the release of some of the most exciting smartphones that will certainly make it to the year-end lists. And this is when Apple hasn’t come out with its flagship iPhone 14 yet. With so many excellent products already released this year, we thought it would be a good idea to recap some of the best phones that have stood out across categories. So without further ado, we present the best smartphones seen so far in 2022. Read Also: Best smartphones with Android 12

Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra specifications Specifications Display: 6.8-inch OLED CPU: Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 RAM: 8GB, 12GB Storage: 128 GB, 256GB, 512GB, 1TB Camera: Rear – 108MP + 10MP + 10MP + 12MP Front – 40MP Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is hands down the best premium Android smartphone you can buy right now. Released in February 2022, this smartphone has dominated the premium smartphone category since. While it still remains to be seen how it will fare against the upcoming iPhone, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra reigns the Android market. With 5 cameras and a 6.8-inch OLED screen with up to 120Hz refresh rate, the Samsung Galaxy S22 ‘Ultra’ really lives up to its name. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor along with 8GB RAM ensures excellent performance, comfortably leaving behind its peers. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra also comes with an embedded S Pen, reminiscent of the Note series. But quite unlike the stylus in the Note series, the S Pen is seamlessly integrated into the working of the S22 Ultra. It offers a range of functions as well, from editing pictures to taking a quick note or even acting as a remote control for your S22 Ultra. The rear 108MP camera thrives in low lighting, producing outstanding pictures even without turning on the Night Mode. There is not much to separate the S22 Ultra from the iPhone 13 when it comes to camera quality. Overall, Samsung S22 Ultra is the best smartphone we’ve seen so far in 2022. But with the launch of iPhone 14 Max on the horizon, the title could easily move the other way.

Apple iPhone SE (2022)

iPhone SE 2022 Review: A good mix of old and new  Specification Display: 4.7-inch LCD CPU: A15 Bionic RAM: 4GB Storage: 64 GB, 128GB, 256GB Camera: Rear – 12MP Front – 7MP Launched in March 2022, the iPhone SE was the first iPhone to launch this year, with Apple planning the release of its flagship iPhones for the latter part of the year. At Rs 45,099, the iPhone SE is the most affordable iPhone on the market. For the price and category, the iPhone SE is a largely overperforming smartphone. Powered by the same A15 Bionic processor found in iPhone 13, the iPhone SE delivers a performance unmatched in its category. Perhaps, the only downside is the lack of Night Mode, but if you can look past that, the iPhone SE is a powerful device with a huge bang for your buck. With the flagship iPhones yet to be released, the iPhone SE is already one of the best smartphones of 2022.

OnePlus 10 Pro

OnePlus 10 Pro Review: Design and Display Specifications Display: 6.7-inch AMOLED CPU: Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 RAM: 8GB, 12GB Storage: 128GB, 256GB Camera: Rear – 48MP + 50MP + 8MP Front – 32MP For a phone with a price of Rs 66,999, the OnePlus 10 Pro does surprisingly well to hang with the likes of the iPhone 13 Pro Max and Samsung S22 Ultra. One aspect where OnePlus clearly dominates is the battery performance. The near 12-hour battery life outperforms the iPhone 13 and the S22 Ultra. The OnePlus 10 Pro is powered by the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor as the S22 Ultra and works just as seamlessly as the latter. The camera unit has a smart design and coupled with the back panel, it stands out among its competitors, making it one of the best smartphone releases of 2022. When it comes to the camera, the OnePlus 10 Pro can do slightly better. Both the iPhone 13 and S22 Ultra come packed with exceptional cameras, and the OnePlus 10 Pro is visibly a step behind them. But if you’re looking for a powerful gaming phone with a unique design and an attractive price point, the OnePlus 10 Pro is just the device for you.

ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro

Asus ROG Phone 6 and ROG Phone 6 Pro with 165Hz AMOLED display and Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC launched in India Specifications Display: 6.8-inch AMOLED CPU: Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 RAM: 18GB Storage: 512GB Camera: Rear – 50MP + 13MP + 5MP Front – 12MP The ASUS ROG Phone 6 Pro is possibly the best gaming smartphone you can buy right now. With a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 processor coupled with 18GB RAM, the ROG Phone 6 Pro delivers one of the best performances by an Android smartphone. The smartphone has been designed in the mould of a proper gaming device, with aesthetics that will surely catch the eye of gamers. The back panel is studded with sharp graphics, and also comes with a mini display screen that can be customised to put any animation you want. The 6000mAh battery on the ROG Phone 6 is impressive, to say the least. Offering a battery life of 15 hours, there aren’t many gaming devices that can rival the ROG Phone 6 Pro. The camera leaves a lot more to be desired, but given the purpose the phone is designed for, there’s not a lot we can complain about.

Xiaomi 12 Pro 5G

Xiaomi 12, Xiaomi 12 Pro, Xiaomi 12X price (global) and availability details Specifications Display: 6.7-inch AMOLED CPU: Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 RAM: 8GB, 12GB Storage: 128GB, 256GB Camera: Rear – 50MP + 50MP + 50MP Front – 32MP Xiaomi continues to deliver with its range of premium smartphones, and the Xiaomi 12 Pro 5G is another substantial addition to that. Launched in April 2022 worldwide, the 12 Pro is Xiaomi’s most premium flagship offering yet. The three 50MP rear cameras deliver consistent image quality, with possibly the best camera performance we’ve seen from a Xiaomi device yet. The 12 Pro can also record 4k Ultra HD videos at 30fps. One handy feature is the ability to record videos with the screen off in order to save power. Powered by the high-end Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, along with 12 GB RAM, the Xiaomi 12 Pro leaves no stone unturned in its performance. Priced at Rs 62,999, the Xiaomi 12 Pro 5GB holds its own among the other premium smartphones on this list.

Nothing Phone 1

Nothing Phone 1 Price in India and availability Specifications Display: 6.5-inch OLED CPU: Snapdragon 778G+ RAM: 8GB, 12GB Storage: 128 GB, 256GB Camera: Rear – 50MP + 50MP Front – 16MP Launched in July 2022, the Nothing Phone 1 is the most recently released phone on this list. Ever since its announcement, the Nothing Phone managed to create a buzz around it, with the hype only growing even after its release. And now that it is finally here, you can expect it to be on several year-end lists. Priced attractively at Rs 31,999 for the lowest variant, the Nothing Phone may not be in the segment as the other smartphones on this list, but its groundbreaking design and display will certainly attract a lot of premium smartphone buyers towards it. What sets the Nothing Phone apart from every smartphone on this list is the LED notification system powered by the company’s Glyph interface. The smooth LED channels running across the transparent back panel light up on receiving a notification. You can also customise the LED channels to respond differently to different notifications. While there’s still some time to go until we can appropriately judge how the Nothing Phone performs in the market, its unique design elements will certainly make it one of the most talked about phones this year.

Vivo V23 Pro

Vivo V23 Pro 5G Specifications Display: 6.5-inch AMOLED CPU: MediaTek Dimensity 920 RAM: 8GB, 12GB Storage: 128GB, 256GB Camera: Rear – 108MP + 8MP + 2MP Front – 50MP + 8MP The Vivo V23 Pro offers an attractive design, keeping up with the theme of the V series. The colour-changing rear panel will make it appealing to buyers that hold the aesthetics of a smartphone to a higher standard than the performance. The soft-touch matte finish gives the Vivo V23 a more premium feel. While Vivo has pushed the boundary on looks and design, the V23 comes with a medium-sized notch at the centre of the screen which can’t help but make it look a bit dated. The camera performance is impressive, especially in low light. The powerful 50MP + 8MP dual front camera produces excellent images, that match those of its competitors. The Vivo V23 lacks a second stereo speaker, which is a bit of a letdown, but if you’re willing to look beyond that, the V23 is an attractive buy at Rs 38,990.

Oppo F21 Pro

Oppo F21 Pro 2 best smartphones 2022 Specifications Display: 6.4-inch AMOLED CPU: Snapdragon 680 RAM: 8GB Storage: 128GB Camera: Rear – 64MP + 2MP + 2MP Front – 32MP At Rs 22,999, the Oppo F21 Pro is one of the lowest-priced smartphones on this list. It is also one of the best phones you can buy for under Rs 25k. The Oppo F21 Pro outperforms most of the smartphones in its price category, making it feature on this list. The minimal back panel design along with the smartly packed camera unit give it a look that is quite unique from the other smartphones in this category. The Snapdragon 680 processor provides decent performance with a 90Hz refresh rate. The most exciting feature on the F21 Pro that makes it stand out on this list is the microscope feature. Embedded in the camera app, turning on this feature will turn your smartphone into a microscope. Placing the camera a few millimetres away from the subject will give you microscopic visuals that are undetected by the naked eye. This is one feature that Oppo can market around, as it is definitely unique and quite addictive.

iQOO Z6

best smartphones 2022 Specifications Display: 6.5-inch LCD CPU: Snapdragon 695 5G RAM: 4GB, 6GB, 8GB Storage: 128GB Camera: 50MP + 2MP +2MP Front – 16MP iQOO continues to gain a foothold in the Indian market, and its newest offering, the Z6, will certainly add to that. Priced at Rs 15,499, the iQOO Z6 provides one of the best performances in the budget smartphones segment. The Snapdragon 695 processor with a refresh rate of 120Hz, along with a 5000mAh battery pack are unheard of in a phone competing in this segment. Needles to say, the iQOO Z6 beats every phone in its category when it comes to processing power and battery life. The camera could be slightly better, but it’s something we’re hoping iQOO improves upon with later products in this range. That being said, the iQOO Z6 is still one of the best smartphones released in 2022 in the mid-tier category.

Motorola Moto E32S

Moto E32s Review: A really good budget smartphone for less than 10K. best smartphones 2022 Specifications Display: 6.5-inch LCD CPU: MediaTek Helio G37 RAM: 3GB, 4GB Storage: 32GB, 64GB Camera: Rear – 16MP + 2MP + 2MP Front – 8MP Finally, seeing this list out is a budget smartphone under Rs 10k, the Moto E32S. The E32S looks way more premium for a phone priced at Rs 8,999. Powered by the MediaTek Helio G37 processors with a refresh rate of 90Hz, the Moto E32S is one of the best-performing smartphones under the Rs 10k range. The plastic body of the E32S feels quite sturdy when you hold the device, but the acrylic back panel is prone to collecting some smudges. The rear 16MP main camera paired with two 2MP cameras deliver a great performance for a smartphone on this budget. There arent not a lot of smartphones under 10k that can offer this design and back it up with the performance as well.  Read Also: The best Alexa and Amazon Echo devices for each room of the house These were our picks for the best smartphones released in 2022 so far.

What is the difference between Apple iCloud and iCloud Drive?

If you’re a casual Apple user, you may not see any difference between Apple iCloud and the iCloud drive. And to be fair, on the surface, the two services may look the same to an average user. However, they couldn’t be more different from each other. While both are backup services, they serve entirely different purposes. In this article, we explain what the Apple iCloud and iCloud Drive actually do and how the two services are different from each other.

Apple iCloud

iCloud The Apple iCloud has been around for more than a decade. Launched in 2011, the cloud backup service is used by millions of Apple users to backup their iPhone and iPad data, and sync it across multiple devices. If you ever needed to transfer your contacts from your old Apple device to your new iPhone, you probably used iCloud. When the iCloud is turned on, it automatically syncs your phone data like contacts, messages, calendar, notes, photos, reminders, documents, and more. If you use multiple Apple devices, iCloud makes things a lot more convenient by syncing your data across devices and reflecting whatever changes you make to it. For example, if you update a contact on your iPhone, it will also get updated on your iPad and vice versa.

iCloud Drive

iCloud Drive So what is iCloud Drive? Simply put, iCloud Drive is Apple’s file-sharing and storage service, much like Dropbox, Google Drive, and Microsoft One Drive. It is an extension of the services offered by Apple iCloud. Much like Dropbox, you can upload all kinds of files to iCloud Drive to share with your friends, or even maintain a personal backup. A frequently asked question is why would a user need iCloud Drive when iCloud already backs up their phone data? Firstly, iCloud may store your phone data, but it does not allow you to share it with anyone else. It is not a file-sharing platform. Secondly, iCloud does not sync all the data on your device. For example, any audiobooks, mp3s, or pdfs that you transferred to your iPhone from your PC will not be backed up to the iCloud. iCloud only syncs music, audiobooks, and media that were purchased through Apple services. But with iCloud Drive, you can backup and share any data on your device, including ripped mp3s and third-party apps.

Apple offers its users 5GB of free storage space for both services. After you’ve surpassed the 5GB cap, you’ll need to purchase further storage space. Currently, Apple offers an additional 50GB of storage for the price of $0.99 (Rs 75 for Indian users).

Best ways to clean your mechanical keyboard and how to fix a broken key?

Mechanical keyboards, if maintained in the right manner, can last for decades. A quick clean-up doesn’t take a long time, and when done regularly can prevent a lot of issues with your keyboard. One of the most common reasons for a key breaking down is the accumulation of dirt under it. In this article, we bring you the best ways to clean your mechanical keyboard and show you how to fix a broken key. Read Also: Simplest guide to clean your headphones or earphones

Light Clean-up

It is very common for dust to settle in your mechanical keyboard within days after cleaning. Dirt notoriously finds its way between the keys, and it becomes necessary to lightly clean your keyboard regularly to prevent the dirt from accumulating. You can perform a light surface clean once every two weeks, or whenever you see the dirt building up. Here’s how you can do that.
  • Invest in a keyboard vacuum cleaner. It may seem excessive initially, but it is the easiest and most efficient way to extract dirt from your mechanical keyboard. It can even reach all those corners that are otherwise inaccessible. Most vacuums come with different attachments that will cover all bases when it comes to removing dirt from all areas of the keyboard.

  • If you do not have a keyboard vacuum cleaner, using a brush also gets the work done. While it may not be as efficient as a vacuum, it still comes in very handy when doing regular light clean-ups on your keyboard. Some people do not feel the need to buy a vacuum when they use a brush on their keyboard once a week. A good brush has long bristles that can reach between the keys to wipe out the dirt. After brushing your keyboard, turn it upside down and gently tap the back to get all the small particles out.
If you do not have a keyboard vacuum cleaner, using a brush also gets the work done.
  • After you’ve got the dirt out from between the keys, use a clean, damp microfiber cloth to wipe the keyboard down. Once you’ve wiped it with a damp cloth, wipe it again with a dry one to make sure no moisture gets stuck to the keys.

Deep Clean

If you want to increase the longevity of your mechanical keyboard, you need to give it a proper deep clean once every few months. Even though a gentle surface clean takes care of the dust, it does not entirely prevent it from getting under the keys. A deep clean removes all traces of dirt and dust, and also leaves your keyboard looking like new.
  • Use a keycap puller to disassemble all keys from your keyboard. You can find good keycap pullers on Amazon. Make sure you take a picture of your keyboard before you pull out the keys, so you know which key goes where.

  • Put the keys in a bowl of soap water to soak. Leave them there for a few hours, undisturbed. Once they’ve been thoroughly soaked, rinse them with clean water and wipe them with a clean cloth. After wiping, lay them out upside down to air dry. Let them air dry for at least a day, so there’s no moisture left in them. Do not air dry in a humid place, like a bathroom.
  • Use a clean brush to unsettle all the dirt from your keyboard. Now that all the keys have been pulled out, it will be easy to spot the clumps of dirt that have accumulated over time. Once the dirt is loose, turn your keyboard upside down and tap it gently on the back to remove all the dirt particles. Use the vacuum on the keyboard to remove the finer dust particles. Wipe the case with a clean microfiber cloth once all the dirt is removed.
  • Plug the keycaps back in, following the picture you took before disassembling them. Once everything is in place, give everything another wipe with a microfiber cloth.
Bonus tip: How to deal with spills Spilling your drink on your keyboard can render it unusable if the drink corrupts the electric circuits. You need to act quickly once you’ve spilled a drink on your keyboard. Firstly, unplug the keyboard from your desktop to prevent any circuit damage to the keyboard. If you’ve spilled water on your keyboard, pat the surface with a dry cloth and let everything dry out. After that, you need to remove all the keycaps and wipe everything down with a clean microfiber cloth. Let the keycaps and the case air dry for a day before you plug the keyboard in again. If you’ve spilled a beverage or a sugary drink, you will need to perform a deep clean to get all the stickiness out of your keyboard.

How to fix a broken key?

A key may stop working due to several reasons like a faulty connection, collection of dirt, stuck switch, and circuit failure. Before you think about discarding your keyboard, they may be something you can do to rescue a broken key. Here are some ways you can fix a broken key.
  • There may be an issue with the cable connecting your keyboard to the desktop. Try using a different USB cable to connect your keyboard to the PC. You can also try plugging the current cable into a different port.
  • Sometimes a key may become unresponsive due to excessive dirt collecting under it. Pull the keycap out and remove any dirt from under it. Blow on the switch and plug it back in.
  • If your keyboard comes with a swappable switch, you can try replacing it. There are different tools that you can use to remove a switch under a key. Pop the new switch in and see if it works.

Heardle and the Big Impact of Simple Gaming Experiences

We are not short of gaming options on smartphones and other devices these days. The incredible technology included in such systems allows us to access some top-quality graphics and gameplay at the touch of a button, with this creating a whole host of opportunities for the industry. However, that does not necessarily mean that immersive, action-packed experiences are the only games thriving on mobile devices. In fact, some recent developments have really put an emphasis on the power of simplicity.

Major deal

Earlier this month, Spotify announced that it is to acquire the daily music game Heardle. In the announcement, the streaming service described the title as a “simple but endlessly challenging game”. For those who are yet to give the game a go, essentially, players have to guess a song based on its opening few seconds. They have six guesses in total, with each part of the game revealing a few more seconds of the tune. Whether they win or lose, players can then listen to the entire song at the end. Spotify added that the game would remain free to play. News of the acquisition has of course come after a similar development involving the daily word game Wordle. At the end of January, it was confirmed that the title would be joining The New York Times Games for an undisclosed price.

Keep it simple

However, while such deals are undoubtedly intriguing, they also highlight how many of us still love more simple forms of entertainment in the modern age. The likes of Wordle and Heardle are just the latest examples of straightforward games having a major impact on the online space. For instance, bingo has been a much-loved pastime for years, with its rules being very easy to understand. That activity now has a major presence in the online domain, thanks to sites like Buzz Bingo. People who play bingo online with the brand have a range of versions of the game to choose from, including Deal or No Deal Bingo and The Voice Bingo. The site adds that the titles also tend to automatically mark any matching numbers on a ticket, so players simply have to choose a room and purchase a ticket. Another simple game that has enjoyed plenty of success online is Candy Crush Saga. As the App Store listing for the title explains, it is simply a ‘match three’ puzzle game where players have to switch and match candies. However, it has proven to be one of the most popular mobile titles of all time.

A big impact

A wide range of gaming options are now possible on mobile, but recent trends seem to clearly show once again how simplicity can still have a big impact. The rise of titles like Heardle and Wordle has been fascinating to watch and it will be interesting to see how all of this develops in the months and years to come. Could another simple gaming experience also emerge to take the world by storm? We cannot wait to find out.
