Best way to use HDR mode to take photos on your Android smartphone: A complete guide

HDR or High Dynamic Range is a feature present in almost all the current phones and camera applications. Many people think that just turning on HDR makes the image look better and sharper. Yes, it’s kind of true but there is more to it. To know the best use of HDR the first step is to learn what it is and how to use HDR mode on Android

What is HDR

As mentioned above HDR is High Dynamic Range. Dynamic range in photography terms means the difference in the lightest and darkest elements of an image. When you turn on the HDR mode in any device, it increases the dynamic range beyond the actual capture. This helps create a more accurate and close to a real representation of what we actually see. Especially helpful when we click images of some landscape where brightening and better details are required.  Yes, it’s true that it enhances the image, but HDR mode is not suitable for every situation. A prime example of it is taking a direct photograph of a scene with bright colours. HDR will gradually increase the light making the image look unnatural. Now the next question is what happens behind the scenes when you press the shutter button with HDR on.  Read Also: CES 2020: Panasonic unveils the world’s first VR glasses 

Working of HDR

When you press the shutter of the mobile camera application, the camera takes lots of pics of the same scenario with different exposure. This is the reason why taking HDR images takes a little bit more time. After taking multiple pictures it is combined to make a perfect one piece.  Then the software optimises the darker and lighter region while enhancing the details. This is the reason why it is advised to take HDR photos with steady hands as it gives the best results. Nowadays smartphone cameras also have an Auto HDR feature that analyses the scene and switches the mode on or off accordingly. Now the question is when to use HDR mode?

When to / When not to use HDR

When to

  • Landscapes – The outdoors especially in bright sunlight can cause way too much contrast, use HDR to reduce it and increase the blacks to balance it out.
  • Dim/dark light – As the process is software-based the HDR mode will try to compensate with the darker amount by adding some light to balance the whites in the photo, you might not see a drastic difference but a noticeable one.
  • Sharper image – Use HDR mode to get sharper images as the process captures multiple photos more details are covered in this mode. 

When not to

  • High contrast scene – When you are trying to capture a high contrast scene avoid using HDR as it will try to balance light making the image less vivid.
  • Moving object – As multiple images are captured during HDR mode a moving object can create distortion in the final result.
  • Vivid scenes – When in vivid surroundings the HDR mode will extra enhance the colours making the picture look unnatural, though it can be something a user likes and it completely depends on the individual’s taste.
Now the next question is how to use HDR mode on Android smartphone? Read Also: Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 highlight: Super Night Scene Mode

How to enable HDR

Almost all phones nowadays have HDR mode built-in in their camera application. If you are still not satisfied, there are tons of applications available in Google PlayStore. Here is how you can turn it on. Step 1 – Fire up the camera application on your Android smartphone. Enable HDR You will spot an HDR icon on the first screen itself, tap on it to enable HDR mode (OnePlus phone used for the above reference). If you do not find it on the first screen, follow the next steps. Step 2 – Head to the camera setting to find the HDR option.   Step 3 – Toggle it on to enable HDR mode. (Samsung’s OneUI used for reference) This is a complete guide of what HDR is and the best way to use HDR mode to take photos on your Android smartphone.

AirPods 3 vs Airpods Pro: Everything explained

After a year’s wait and lots of speculations, Apple finally debuted its new third-generation Airpods yesterday in the “Unleashed” event along with the new MacBook pro. The launch event tells us that there is a lot in common with both earphones with similar features and almost similar design.  Surprisingly Apple didn’t give up on the 2nd gen Airpods and they are still being sold at the lowest $129 (Rs 12,900) mark. Now that the AirPods 3 are available for pre-order, the question is, which one should we consider buying AirPods 3 or AirPods pro? This article will help you out.

Design

The new AirPods 3 has a design close to the Pro variant but without the silicon tip. The narrower round ear tip can be seen as compared to the prevision gen. Just like the AirPod Pro, the third generation is also sweat and water-resistant making it a good option for those who use these earphones during workouts or in bad weather conditions.  We can also see a significant change in the design of the case for the 3rd gen. It looks a lot similar to the Pro counterpart as compared to the previous-gen. The newer version now supports MagSafe wireless charging so that is a big change as well. The stem of the 3rd gen AirPods is quite smaller, similar to AirPods pro. With a smaller stem, there is no compromise with the battery on board.  They also have a new Force touch sensor, which enables you to control your entertainment as well as activate Siri. As the AirPods Pro have silicon tips, they are interchangeable according to your fit, but that’s not the case with 3rd gen AirPods. Read Also: Apple to launch two new third-generation of AirPods

Features

AirPods 3rd Generation The top of the earphone’s line by the company, Apple AirPods Pro gets active noise cancellation on board along with transparency mode to hear important noise and sounds around you. Not all but there are few features that these new TWS inherit are Spatial sound and Adaptive EQ.  Spatial sound gives a surround sound feeling to users and when paired with Dolby Atmos support that the company recently added, gives an immersive experience. Adaptive EQ adjusts the sound of the music or multimedia according to the fit of the earphones to compensate for the loss of audio if any. 

Battery

Airpods Pro The next-gen has a longer battery life as compared to the predecessor. Not only that it is a significant improvement over the Pro counterpart as well. Both, the 3rd gen AirPods and AirPods Pro, are powered by an H1 chip so we can expect similar performance.  Apple claims that these new earphones will last for 6 hours on a single charge and up to 5 hours with spatial audio enabled. Along with that users can expect 4 hours of talk time and the charging case should provide up to 30 hours (4 full charges) of listening time. Talking about the AirPods Pro in comparison, according to Apple it should last 4.5 hours on a single charge and 5 hours of active noise cancellation and transparency mode is disabled. They offer 3.5 hours of talk time and the case provides 24 hours (near to 3 full charges) of total listening time.

Logitech MX Anywhere 3 review: For the professional in you

A mouse is an accessory that we consider as the most important tool with a PC or laptop. It comes in different shapes and sizes, and one must have the best one to finish your tasks efficiently. If you are a professional who wants more control from his/her mouse, then you are reading the right review. Logitech threw over the MX Anywhere 3, which we have been tinkering with for a few weeks now. This is Logitech MX Anywhere 3 review and what we think of this new-age PC/laptop companion.

Logitech MX Anywhere 3 review: Design

Right of the bat, you will find the Logitech MX Anywhere 3 to be one of the best-looking wireless mice out there. We have been using the MX Anywhere series in the team since the first version. And with every new edition, we feel that the company will only give a little bit of an upgrade. But to our amazement, they have been bringing some solid changes in both looks and performance sectors. Compared to the first version, you will see a lot of changes on the exterior shell, but over the second version, not so much at least in the contour and curves department. What has changed from the last series is the rubberised side gripping, which works for us. We reviewed the silver-grey variant and quite liked the outlook. Other colours available are pink and white. Logitech-MX-Anywhere-3-top The Logi branding can be found on the top as well and really suave silver metallic scroll wheel. More about it in the performance section. Here you will also find the mode shift key that can switch the scroll wheel from ratchet to smooth free-spin mode. Logitech-MX-Anywhere-3--rea Twin forward and back buttons can be found on the left side and are well within reach. Below you will get vertically placed glider footings. These work really well, irrespective of the surface. The power key and the device selection button can also be found here. The Logitech MX Anywhere 3 is lighter than the previous edition and weighs 99 grams. The connectivity port has also been upgraded. Now you get USB Type-C port instead of the micro-USB port.

Logitech MX Anywhere 3 review: Performance

The Logitech MX Anywhere 3 is a workhorse, which the work from home force wants. This is a mouse that actually lowers a lot of your burden. To begin with, it works with multiple operating systems, including Mac and Windows. The company does give a USB wireless connection dongle with it, however, you do not require it as it can connect with Bluetooth easily. The sensor in the Logitech MX Anywhere 3 has a max DPI value of 4,000 which is excellent if you work on large screens. Most of the functions can be customised using the Logitech Options software. Users can customise the scroll click button, the side buttons and even the mode key just above the scroll wheel. Or they can use some of the pre-sets already present in the software for apps like Adobe Photoshop and Microsoft office suite. So, this way the side buttons are pre-customised for each software you use and you do not have to change it every time you open the software. This brings us to one of the main attractions of the mouse, its fabulous scroll wheel. The metal roll is something that has been borrowed from the Master edition of mice from Logitech. The mouse auto-detects the speed of your scroll, which the company calls MagSpeed. If you are slow scrolling, it will scroll few lines and if you quickly scroll it, the wheel becomes free and will start scrolling multiple lines at once. Pretty neat!

You can download the Logitech Flow app. What this does is that you do not require multiple mice for each device. Just one Logitech MX Anywhere 3 mouse is enough. All you have to do is install the flow app in each machine (can be a MAC and Windows too), put them on the same WiFi network, take the mouse pointer to the edge of one screen and it will be automatically taken to the next one. The process is almost seamless. With it, you can even transfer files from one machine to the other or copy-paste text from one laptop to the other. Yes, we know, Mind Blown! The Logitech MX Anywhere 3 can work on any surface including glass. And it does work on glass surfaces, but not as well as it does on a gaming mouse pad. Nonetheless, it surely works much better than its competition. A 500 mAh battery is placed inside the mouse and the company claims it can last for up to 70 days. Well, it has been 4 weeks for us and we have not recharged it even once. Also using the supplied USB-A to USB-C cable you can fast charge the mouse and get three hours of battery life in just 1 minute of charge.

Verdict

The Logitech MX Anywhere 3 can be purchased for Rs 5,995 from online e-commerce stores. The mouse makes perfect sense for power users, photo and video editors as it gives you more control. If you work on multiple machines, this is one mouse that can juggle three of them at once. We quite liked it and frankly speaking found no flaw in it. It is an exceptional buy if you can afford it.
