Motorola has done quite well in the low budget and mid-range segments by launching Moto G series and Motorola One series as well as E series in the market. Last year the Lenovo owned company made a comeback in the flagship market with the launch of its foldable smartphone Moto Razr. Now this year the company is planning to launch another flagship phone that is Motorola Edge+. The smartphone has been in the news for a very long time now and another leak has landed on the internet. In a new development, CAD-based renders of the Motorola Edge+ have been leaked on the internet which displays the phone from the angle.

Moreover, the front display features a small hole-punch on the top left corner to equip a selfie camera. While the rear panel will be seen flaunting triple cameras placed inside a pill-shaped camera module on the top left corner of the phone. Just beside the camera setup, there is an LED flash and in the center, you can notice a Motorola Logo. There is no rear fingerprint sensor so it confirms that the phone will include an in-display fingerprint scanner.On the bottom of the device, there is a SIM card slot, USB-C port and a speaker grill and however, we could not find the 3.5mm headphone jack this might be on the top. While on the side panel the device has a power button and volume rocker unlike other devices with waterfall displays. Previously it was reported that the phone might offer a 6.67-inches display with a 2340 x 1080 pixel resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate.

Xiaomi and Realme are two very popular Chinese brands in India. And every now and then they both are into a duel on so many reasons whether they launch a new smartphone or when the rep says something. Both brands are always involved in a tug of war on Twitter. To recall, Xiaomi, as well as Realme representatives, were seen attacking each other when Poco India general manager Chandolu Manmohan slammed Realme by calling it a “real copycat brand.” To this Realme’s Chief Madhav Sheth replied by telling him to behave. The Poco’s executive has now been blocked by both @realmemobiles and Madhav Sheth.
One of our fans sent this hilarious video about the #CopyCat brand. Fans sab jaante hain. 🤪
This war of words does not stop here, yesterday Realme launched its new smartphone series in the country while introducing the phone Madhav Sheth said: “We do not want to compare with anyone else”. To this again C Manmohan attacked Realme by accusing him of copying. His tweet reads, “We do not want to compare with anyone else” The brand that spent its entire life copying from others and comparing with others is now preaching morality.”The recently launched Realme X50 5G seems like another copy of Xiaomi’s Smartphone. Yes, you guessed right, we are talking about Redmi K30 5G. Both have a 120Hz LCD display, dual selfie camera, side-mounted fingerprint scanner, a 64megapixel quad-camera setup, however, the processor is different but offers 5G connectivityFurthermore, Realme has aped Xiaomi in terms of design aspects, marketing as well as pricing. The company launched Realme Buds Air Pro which is a copy of Xiaomi’s Truly wireless earbuds and again Xiaomi copied this from Apple’s AirPods. Yesterday Realme launched a low price fitness band in India that is another copy of Xiaomi’s Mi Band. Keeping up with the trends now Realme is preparing to launch a Realme TV very soon in India. We think rather than copying other brands and mocking each other the company should concentrate on their business as otherwise, this will only lead to negative marketing, which is not a good sign. Both the companies are at a position where these things do not suit them. And blocking each other is not the solution, healthy competition is.

Turn These mobile malware attacks have become the most common problem and the users should turn their attention toward their mobile safety as well as privacy. Now a new report has surfaced on the internet that proves that hackers sneak into your smartphones via hidden mobile apps. These seal your important information and data from your device and remain hidden inside your smartphoneAccording to a new mobile threat report 2020 by McAfee that discovered that nowadays hackers have found a new way to sneak into your devices with the help of hidden mobile apps, third-party login and counterfeit gaming videos to target consumers. It stated that last year hackers targeted consumers with a wide variety of methods, from backdoors to mining cryptocurrencies. McAfee found out that hackers have expanded the ways of hiding their attacks, making them increasingly difficult to identify and remove, which makes it seem like 2020 will be the year of mobile sneak attacks. The hidden apps are known to be the most active mobile threat that has been generating almost 50 percent of all malicious activities in 2019- a 30% increase from 2018. These keep on targeting the consumers via those apps they spend the most time on- their devices. Hidden apps take advantage of unsuspecting consumers in voluminous ways, this also includes evoking the consumers to use third-party login services or serving unwanted ads. Venkat Krishnapur, Vice-President of Engineering and Managing Director, McAfee India said, “Mobile devices hold the key to our lives – both corporate and personal. Unfortunately, they are also amongst the easiest attack vectors for cybercriminals because consumer awareness levels towards the security of their devices and apps are low. Hidden apps have emerged as the most active mobile threat category and it’s highly advisable consumers stay vigilant with regards to where they download applications from, what they click and also ensure they use the right security software on their devices, to enable detection and protection of their digital lives.”According to the report, the hacker makes the most of the increasing popularity of gaming by circulating vicious apps by providing links in popular gamer chat apps and cheat videos by creating their own content containing links to fake apps. These apps pretend as genuine with icons that exactly mimic those of the real apps but set out unwanted ads while collecting user’s data. These malicious apps include FaceApp, Spotify and Call of Duty that also have fake versions that are trying to victimize unsuspecting consumers, especially younger users. McAfee also discovered that new information on mobile malware dubbed LeifAccess, also known as Shopper. It is a malware and makes use of the accessibility features in Android to create accounts, download apps, and post reviews using names and emails configured on the victim’s device. These apps are being widely distributed through social media, gaming platforms, malvertising, and gamer chat apps. Fake warnings are used to get the user to activate accessibility services, enabling the full range of the malware’s capabilities. Also, a series of South Korean transit apps, implicated a fake library and plugin that could extract confidential files, calledMalBus. According to the research the attack was hidden in a verified south Korean transit app by hacking the original developer’s Google Play account. This leads to passing a range of information for each region of South Korea, such as bus stop locations, route maps, and schedule times for more than 5 years.Hacks to protect your privacy as well as important data:
While most of these malicious apps make through social media, fake ads, and other unofficial app sources So, before you download any app do some quick research. Try to find out about the source and developer. Many of these have been flagged by other users.
Secondly, read reviews to know if the app is genuine or not. Look out for reviews that reuse the same simple phrases that are an indication of fake reviews and this might be a suspicious app.
Use far-reaching security software on all your devices such as computers, tablets, or smartphones which will keep your data safe from cyberthreats.
All your apps should be frequently updated so that they have the latest fixes and security protections.
Try using an ID monitoring tool that will keep you well aware of the changes or actions which you did not make. These may have been caused by malware and could indicate that your phone or account has been compromised.
