Microsoft has acquired Nuance Communications, Siri’s AI developer, in an all-cash deal priced at $19.7 billion. Nuance is an American multinational computer software technology company that provides AI-based programs to tech firms including Apple.
Why did Microsoft decide to acquire Nuance Communications?
Nuance Communications has been a significant provider of programs based on conversational AI including Apple’s Siri. However, this is not the sole reason that encouraged Microsoft to overtake the company. In fact, Microsoft’s interest in Nuance communications is related to health and clinical intelligence.
Nuance is an important provider of health and clinical intelligence solutions throughout the world. The technologies offered by the company are as follows.
Documentation capture solutions
Clinical and revenue integrity and quality management solution
Patient engagement solutions
Optimization and consulting services
Diagnostic solutions
Care settings and specialities
Microsoft is already a giant firm working in the field of Artificial Intelligence. Microsoft’s Azure is a cloud computing service providing an AI platform. The Azure AI is extensively used by Data Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers, and App Developers across the globe. Having acquired Nuance, Microsoft will further stretch the horizon of AI capabilities and cloud computing in the health and clinical sector. This will help them get ahead of the competition by leads and bounds.
Why did Microsoft decide to acquire Nuance Communications?
What are other acquisitions sought by Microsoft?
Microsoft is not planning to get settled after having acquired Nuance Communications. The company is planning to take over Discord, an instant messaging and digital distribution platform, too. The acquisition of Discord is expected to surpass the value of $10 billion. Discord is widely used by the gaming community due to its low-latency communication.
Discord enables gamers to chat during gameplay and watch live streams by their friends. Moreover, the users can conduct a meet session by sharing their screens. Discord’s acquisition shall help Xbox and Windows PC gamers enhance live streaming and communication among gamers.
What is the Nuance Communications acquisition deal worth? What will happen to the current employees?
Microsoft recently revealed that an acquisition deal will cost $56 per share. Although the deal was speculated to be priced at $16 billion, the final transaction cost will be more. Considering the net debt of Nuance Communications, the final all-cash transaction may reach a value of $19.7 billion.
The acquisition process is expected to complete by the end of 2021. The current CEO of Nuance Communications, Mark Benjamin, will continue to remain in the role. Once the process is complete, Nuance’s acquisition will turn out to be the second-largest acquisition by the Microsoft Corporation. In 2016, Microsoft had bought Linked In for $24 billion making it the largest acquisition deal by the Microsoft Corporation. There is no word on the employee reshuffle as of now.

Since wireless earphones have become mainstream, very few people want to bother themselves with cables. Naturally, all the major technology companies have come up with their own wireless earbuds in the last few years, and you can also find the product in all price ranges. Recently, Acer launched its Gateway GAHR012 TWS earbuds in India at a price of Rs 3,499. If you have been considering buying these, check out our review of Acer Gateway GAHR012 earbuds:
Acer Gateway GAHR012 design
The design of Acer Gateway GAHR012 earbuds is one among its pros. The earbuds as well as their case are White in colour and have a very premium look and feel. The charging case of the earbuds is rectangular in shape but has rounded corners. On the front, there is a button and LED indicators, while on the back, information like the model number is mentioned in a very tiny font in Silver colour. The bottom has the USB Type-C charging port. Acer Gateway GAHR012 earbuds’ case has a magnetic closure, and obviously this is a good thing as it stops the earphones from falling out of the case.
Coming to the earbuds, as we mentioned earlier, they are also White in colour. But they also have some Black coloured accents. Even the ‘R’ and ‘L’ written on the right and the left earbud respectively are Black. Besides this, there are three ear tips that the company has given in the box, so you can choose the one that fits you the best. Another good aspect of the earbuds is that they are very light in weight, and hence, you wouldn’t feel uncomfortable with them even if you wear them for hours at a stretch. Acer Gateway GAHR012 comes with IPX4 rating, which makes them water resistant. The earbuds also come with touch controls, so with a single tap on the earbuds (while they are in use) will play or pause the music or can answer incoming phone calls.
Volume can be increased and decreased by pressing and holding the right and the left earbud respectively. Music tracks can also be changed by double-tapping on the earbuds. Double tap the left one to go on a previous track and double tap the right one for the next track. In a nutshell, we would say that Acer Gateway GAHR012 earbuds are comfortable to wear and premium in looks. We don’t have any complains as far as the design goes.
Acer Gateway GAHR012 performance
Before going on to the performance, we would talk about pairing the earbuds with a smartphone. It was fairly easy to pair the Acer Gateway GAHR012 earbuds to our device. The Bluetooth of the earbuds turns on the moment you take them out of the case. Then, you can just go to the Bluetooth section of your smartphone and look for ‘GAHR012’. Click on it to pair. However, if you want TWS enabled, then first pair the earbuds together and then pair them with your device.
The connection between our smartphone and earbuds remained strong and clear at all times. After pairing the earbuds, even if our smartphone was kept in a different room, the performance wasn’t affected due to the range.
The earbuds from Acer come with a 9mm audio driver and support a frequency range of 20Hz to 20KHz. The earbuds also have a latency of 220ms. The sound quality that Gateway GAHR012 earbuds produce is extremely good and the clarity of sound is maintained even at very high volumes. Noise cancellation is another aspect that the earbuds excelled in. Even when we used the earbuds at a rather busy airport, we weren’t disturbed much by the outside noise (besides the loud announcements, of course). Last but not the least, the quality of bass produced by the earbuds was really impressive.
Coming to the battery life of the earbuds, they easily last around 4-5 hours on a single charge. Then, you can put them back again in the charging case, and they’ll be fully charged again in 1.5-2 hours. You can do this thrice before charging the case again.
Verdict
At a price of Rs 3,499, Acer Gateway GAHR012 TWS earbuds are a good buy. The earbuds are premium to look at and the performance is great too. The sound clarity is really good and the bass and noise cancellation are pros too. We faced a slight problem because of the touch controls of the earbuds because there were times when we inadvertently paused the music, but then, we’re sure with time users would get more accustomed to it. We see no reason to not recommend it.

Volume can be increased and decreased by pressing and holding the right and the left earbud respectively. Music tracks can also be changed by double-tapping on the earbuds. Double tap the left one to go on a previous track and double tap the right one for the next track. In a nutshell, we would say that Acer Gateway GAHR012 earbuds are comfortable to wear and premium in looks. We don’t have any complains as far as the design goes.
The earbuds from Acer come with a 9mm audio driver and support a frequency range of 20Hz to 20KHz. The earbuds also have a latency of 220ms. The sound quality that Gateway GAHR012 earbuds produce is extremely good and the clarity of sound is maintained even at very high volumes. Noise cancellation is another aspect that the earbuds excelled in. Even when we used the earbuds at a rather busy airport, we weren’t disturbed much by the outside noise (besides the loud announcements, of course). Last but not the least, the quality of bass produced by the earbuds was really impressive.
Coming to the battery life of the earbuds, they easily last around 4-5 hours on a single charge. Then, you can put them back again in the charging case, and they’ll be fully charged again in 1.5-2 hours. You can do this thrice before charging the case again.

Speaking of the specifications, the iQoo 7 is expected to share similar specs with that of the Chinese variant. The 5G mobile phone will run OriginOS for iQoo on top of Android 11. It will feature a 6.62-inch full-HD+ AMOLED display with 1,080×2,400 pixels of resolution. The 120Hz refresh rate panel will offer a 91.4 percent screen-to-body ratio, and a 20:9 aspect ratio. Under the hood, there will be an octa-core Snapdragon 888 SoC paired with 12GB of RAM.
For photos and videos, there will be a triple camera setup on the back of iQoo 7 that includes a 48-megapixel primary sensor with f/1.79 aperture, a 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens with f/2.2 aperture and a 13-megapixel depth sensor with f/2.46 aperture. The 5G smartphone by iQoo will pack a 16-megapixel front-facing camera with f/2.0 aperture.
The phone is fuelled by a 4,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging support. But it is not known if the 120W faster charger will come in the box at this price point. For the connectivity, it includes 5G, 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth v5.2, GPS/ A-GPS, NFC, and a USB Type-C port. This will be another entrant in the fast-growing gaming smartphone arena, where Asus ROG and OnePlus have already launched their respective contenders this year.
