Apple and Samsung have been sued over radio frequency exposure
Smartphone manufacturer Apple and Samsung have been sued because of a report that claims their smartphones emits harmful radio frequency (RF) exposure. The class-action suit was filed against both the companies in the US District Court for the Northern District of California over alleged damages and problems related to RF exposure. According to a report by appleinsider, the case takes issue with marketing materials that claim the products operate within regulated guidelines, with neither company issuing warnings about potential negative health effects related to the allegedly high RF emissions. “Numerous recent scientific publications, supported by hundreds of scientists worldwide, have shown that RF radiation exposure affects living organisms at levels well below most international and national guidelines,” the filing reads. “Effects include increased cancer risk, cellular stress, increase in harmful free radicals, genetic damages, structural and functional changes of the reproductive system, learning and memory deficits, neurological disorders, and negative impacts on general well-being in humans.” As per the suit, Apple’s iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 8 and iPhone X and Samsung’s Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 8 were found to be releasing radio-frequency radiation exposure. The legal suit depends on the results of the test done by an independent study RF Exposure Lab on behalf of the Chicago Tribune. As per the complaint previously Apple declared RF exposure information that also includes Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), for public viewing. In addition to this, the company also provided recommended the closest distance at which a user should carry the smartphone. The complaint also mentioned that with the release of iPhone 7 the company stopped providing the information. In its defense, the company stated that “were inaccurate due to the test setup not being in accordance with procedures necessary to properly assess the iPhone models.” “All iPhone models, including iPhone 7, are fully certified by the FCC and in every other country where iPhone is sold,” the company added. “After careful review and subsequent validation of all iPhone models tested in the (Tribune) report, we confirmed we are in compliance and meet all applicable exposure guidelines and limits.” According to the FCC guidelines, Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is an amount of the of RF energy absorption by the body from the source being measured for a cell phone. FCC said, “Many people mistakenly assume that using a cell phone with a lower reported SAR value necessarily decreases a user’s exposure to RF emissions, or is somehow ‘safer’ than using a cell phone with a high SAR value,” For the latest gadget and tech news, and gadget reviews, follow us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. For newest tech & gadget videos subscribe to our YouTube Channel.

No more treats for Android users, Google will just name Android versions numerically

No more treats for Android users, Google will just name Android versions numerically
It was more of a treat for Android consumers when Google asked them to think of a candy/dessert name for its next Android operating system. Well, seems like it had become too much of an effort for the Alphabet-owned company to come up with a candy/dessert name with each alphabet. Also, they would have run out of alphabets in a couple of years. Which is why Google has decided to go ahead and just name the next operating system as Android 10. No alphabetical character will be attached to the system. In a post which appeared on Google’s blog said, “This naming tradition has become a fun part of the release each year externally, too. But, we’ve heard feedback over the years that the names weren’t always understood by everyone in the global community”. The engineering team used to give dessert name to the new OS releases (internally). The blog post defined a lot of terms are not being distinguished between in a lot of languages and some of the words used like ‘Pie” are not even a dessert. Gadget Bridge had pointed out that earlier in 2018 the same thing that Pie is not a dessert, since there are savoury pies too. Seems like Google heard that and delisted the dessert. The blog post further says, “So, when some people heard us say Android Lollipop out loud, it wasn’t intuitively clear that it referred to the version after KitKat. It’s even harder for new Android users, who are unfamiliar with the naming convention, to understand if their phone is running the latest version,” Also, “As a global operating system, it’s important that these names are clear and relatable for everyone in the world. So, this next release of Android will simply use the version number and be called Android 10,” it said. So, seems like the next version of the operating systems by Google will be named numerically, Android 10. This will give them a global appeal as all languages have the numerical system. Since Android 7, the number appeal to the operating system has grown tremendously. The numerical system has been taken up by a lot of successful businesses to name its releases and OS. Take for example Microsoft Windows, which has been naming its operating systems with a numeric value and they have been successful at it. Windows 10 is a perfect example. Also, Android 10, has a great ring to it, doesn’t it?

How to reset your Android smartphone before you sell it
Buying a new smartphone is something that gets everyone excited. While doing enough research to buy the right offering based on our requirements is very essential, it is equally important to be sure that our old handset does not have any data. In most cases, people either choose to sell their old smartphones for a lesser value, give it to someone known for using it or use it for getting a good exchange offer on their new device. Whatever the case might be with you, you don’t want the new owner of your old smartphone to have access to your data. To make sure that they don’t, you need to reset your Android smartphone to its factory conditions before you give it away. Although the process is a very simple one, an alarming number of people do not know how to do it. Here, we are stating all the steps that you need to follow in order to rest your Android smartphone to its factory settings. While the steps are written for Pixel 3a handset, they should be more or less the same for any other Android smartphone. Before you reset your device you must take a backup of all your data or transfer it to your new smartphone. Once your old Android smartphone has been reset to its factory conditions, there will be no way of retrieving the lost data. Once you are ready though, you need to follow these steps to reset your Android smartphone to its factory condition:
  • Go to Settings.
  • Head to System > Advanced > Reset options.
  • You will now see three options: ‘Reset Wi-Fi, mobile & Bluetooth’, ‘Reset app preferences’ and ‘Erase all data (factory reset)’. Choose ‘Erase all data (factory reset)’ in order to delete all the data from your Android smartphone.
  • Once you choose the option, you will get a warning that all the data from your smartphone will be deleted and your accounts will be removed from the device too. Select the option of ‘Reset phone’ to go ahead with it.
clean smartphones
  • In case you have set a password on your device, you will be asked to enter that too.
  • You will then be asked again if you are sure you want to delete everything. Here, just press the option of ‘Erase everything’.
  • Once you do this, it will take two or three to reset your Android device to its factory settings.
