Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700, Earbuds 500 unveiled: Here are more details about them
When we think of noise-cancelling headphones, we can’t not think of Bose. Today, the company has announced its new flagship headphones – Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700. The newly launched headphones cost $399.95 and are very different from the company’s current model QC35 IIs.

Coming to the design of the Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700, it is definitely an upgrade over the QC 35s that we saw previously. The new headphones come with a USB-C charging port and the company has promised 20 hours of full-featured playback. We should mention that the shape of the new headphones is a lot like Sony’s 1000X M3s, which happen to be one among the most comfortable among all the noise-cancelling headphones even today.
However, Bose has made sure that the internals of the headphones are a class apart. It has touted that the new-headphones will have support for all major voice-assistants. The company has said, “you’ll be able to remain seamlessly connected to your phone without looking at it or even touching it.” In other words, you would be able to answer your calls using Google Assistant, Alexa, and Siri.
The company has also claimed that it has the world’s best microphone system built into the headphones. The headphones come with four mics and Bose has touted its noise-cancelling and voice isolation capabilities. Other than this, the new Bose AR platform is also present which is supposed to serve as audio augmented reality tool.
Furthermore, the Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 are adjustable and come with 11 different kinds of intensity settings. The headphones also come with touch controls. The Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 are now up for pre-orders and will be delivered on June 30.
We should mention that Bose is one among the leading audio equipment makers in the world and it is known for its noise cancelling headphones. As of now, there is no word on the pricing details and availability of the new Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 in India. We will update you as and when we get to know more about them.

Xiaomi has released its much-awaited Redmi K20 and the Redmi K20 Pro smartphones in China. The Redmi K20 Pro is the flagship device of the Redmi brand while the Mi 9 is the flagship smartphone of Xiaomi with flagship like performance and specifications. The Mi 9 was launched back in February in China but the global and India launch of the device will take place in June. Now, the company is reportedly planning to add another device to the Mi 9 series.
Xiaomi has shared an image of a smartphone with a triple camera setup on its back and a gradient back panel. The company asked the users of what the name of the device was. It revealed the device through a tweet asking, “K, I or T…Which letter would you choose for the newest member of our Mi9 family? why? #PopUpInStyle”. There is also a pop-up selfie camera present on the new smartphone teased by Xiaomi.
Other than the details mentioned above, the company didn’t reveal much about the upcoming smartphone. But a new device named Mi 9T has reportedly received certifications in Thailand and Taiwan. The smartphone’s name which has received the certificate hasn’t been named yet but is alleged that it is the Mi 9T. The smartphone received the NBTC certification in Thailand and NCC certification in Taiwan. Since the unnamed Xiaomi smartphone has received the certification, the launch of the handset is certain.
The new smartphone teased by Xiaomi looks like the Mi 9 from the looks of its camera placement and back panel, as the Mi 9 had the same vertically placed camera module and gradient back panel.
But it should be noted that the Xiaomi’s Mi 9 series smartphones have a full-screen display design meaning that they are to have the pop-up selfie camera. The company even teased and hinted about the pop-up camera placement with the use of its ‘#PopUpInStyle’ hashtag. However, the regular Mi 9 flagship smartphone holds a waterdrop notch display design which holds the front camera sensor. So, it is clear that the smartphone teased by the company is not the regular Mi 9 but a new device in the Mi 9 series, more likely the Mi 9T.
Since the Mi 9 is about to go on its global launch in June, there is a big possibility that the new Xiaomi Mi9 smartphone will also be launched at the same event.K, I or T…Which letter would you choose for the newest member of our Mi9 family? why? #PopUpInStyle pic.twitter.com/Ks5xokWrUG

Microsoft’s modern OS to receive updates invisibly, will support cloud based applications
Microsoft is coming up with a new kind of operating system (OS) which will have many new features. However, we are not talking about Windows Lite here. Microsoft’s corporate vice president, Nick Parker revealed today at Computex 2019 about the new OS as the company’s vision for a modern operating system. Parker didn’t reveal anything about the awaited Windows Lite OS, but he did confirm the ways they were preparing for the new devices. The company also said that the modern OS updates are done invisibly.
The new OS from Microsoft is called the ‘modern OS’ and it will receive ‘enablers’ like seamless updates. According to Microsoft, the modern OS will receive updates which will happen in the background. The updates of modern OS’ will be “deterministic, reliable and instant with no interruptions.” This is a completely different path than the Windows 10 updates and it is more like Chrome OS.
According to Microsoft, the modern OS platform is secure by default, and it means that the state is separated from the OS and the compute is separated from the apps. In addition to this, the company wants the modern OS to work with 5G connectivity and will also work with inputs like pen, voice, touch and gaze.
Parker said, “These enablers and delighters underpin our vision for a Modern OS, they will provide the foundational elements for an evolution of the PC ecosystem and enable partners to deliver the more human-centric experiences of tomorrow.”
Furthermore, the company with the modern OS is focusing more towards the cloud-connected device experience which would use the compute power of the cloud to make the user experience better.
Windows hasn’t announced or launched its new Windows Lite OS yet, and with the announcement of the modern OS we can hope to see some of the functions and features of the modern OS in the Lite OS. The Windows Lite might come with similar update features, security improvements, 5G connectivity, cloud-powered applications and AI support.
Moreover, the rumoured Windows Lite is currently not in the picture as the company hasn’t revealed anything about it. Even the upcoming Windows 10 update – codenamed 19H2 – details are currently not available, but it is expected to be released sometimes in October. The company has also started testing a new version of the Windows 10 but it won’t be coming to the PCs until 2020. Even the details about the next Windows 10 update which is to come in October 2019 are currently not known.

10 popular electric cars that we want to see in India
Electric cars are becoming more and more popular around the world. However, they are yet to make a mark in India. Here, we have listed down 10 popular electric vehicles from the likes of Tesla, BMW, Jaguar, and Mercedes that we really want to see in India. Take a look:
Tesla Model S is one of the most popular cars from the popular electric car maker’s lineup. The car is considered to be one among the bests around the world because of the kind of capabilities it has. For those who are looking for a car that is fast, comfortable and emissions-free, Tesla Model S is the right pick, even though it has a heavy price tag. Tesla Model S comes with a 100-kWh battery and is claimed to go from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.4 seconds. This makes it one among the quickest electric cars that are available today. The car has a range of 345 miles, thanks to the big batteries that it has.
The 2019 BMW i88 Roadster is great to look at and can handle some very powerful drives. It is a much-needed upgrade over the 2013 model, which, according to various reviews was only a looker, but did not excel in driving. The new model comes with better electrics and has a combined electric motor and turbocharged 1.5-litre gas engine that can take the car from 0 to 60mph in 4.2 seconds.
This is the first pure electric vehicle from Jaguar and it is an all-wheel-drive cross over. It is often called as an electric vehicle that comes with style as well as stamina. The car comes with a liquid-cooled 90-kW-hr battery pack and has a horsepower of 394. 2018 Jaquar I-Pace can run for 240 miles before it needs to be charged and can go from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds.
There was no question of not including the Tesla Model 3 on the list. It is a very popular electric vehicle from Tesla that comes with a range of 220 miles on a single charge. The car was praised by many for its design and 50-kWh battery. The performance of the car is supposed to be good.
Nissan’s Leaf Plus guarantees to run 226 miles on a single charge and promises better acceleration at highway speeds. The electric car has a horsepower of 214 and its SL version comes with navigation, Apple CarPlay/ Android Auto compatibility and it gives warnings for blind spots. The car also comes with a beefed up audio system.
Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid is a lot more like a Formula 1 car than it is like a family Sedan. The car can run on pure electric power for around 30 miles and then it can be switched to its twin-turbocharged 2.9-litre V6 engine. It is said that the car is better to be used in electric and gas in combination and it has a horsepower of 462. The car additionally has appointment reminders and suggestions for nearby spots.
The Ioniq electric car from Hyundai is available in three versions – an electric-only car, a hybrid car (battery and gas) and a plug-in hybrid (electric only or gas plus electric). The car has a range of 124 miles when used as a pure electric vehicle; and 59 miles and 29 miles as a hybrid and on gas engine respectively. All the three versions of the car come with a 7-inch touchscreen display and support for Android Auto/Apple CarPlay.
The electric car from Mitsubishi has two electric motors and a 2-litre gas engine and it is said to come with a range of around 30 miles. The car is said to run in Battery Charge mode, in which the gas engine of the vehicle can turn into a charger for the battery. The Outlander only uses navigation services from a smartphone that is connected to it, so you would not feel that your car’s mapping abilities are out of date.
This is something for Mercedes fans here! The electric car from Mercedes made its debut at the Paris Motor Show 2018 and comes with a range of 220 miles on a single charge. It has 80 kWh lithium-ion battery.

[td_smart_list_end] T-Series’ YouTube channel becomes the first to cross 100 million subscribers
Indian record label T-Series’ YouTube channel has become the first ever to cross the mark of 100 million subscribers on the popular video sharing platform. The YouTube channel had surpassed all other channels and influencers in terms of subscribers back in April this year when it surpassed PewDiePie with a lead of over 9,20,000 subscribers. Today, it has unlocked a new achievement by crossing the 100 million subscriber mark.
At the time of writing, the T-Series’ YouTube channel had 100,015,362 subscribers. We should mention that a lot of different aspects have led to this achievement. To begin with, the war of telecommunication companies in the country has led to a fall in data prices. This made a lot more users spend time on the internet and social media, and YouTube was no exception to that.
Secondly, the sub-Rs 5,000 segment in the Indian smartphone market has seen some good additions last year, especially with Android Go platform. This has led to a number of people use smartphones for the first time ever. With more number of people in India using smartphones, more number of people started using YouTube.
Thirdly, YouTube made its way to feature phones like JioPhone, JioPhone 2 and Nokia 8110 4G last year. With this, the platform was not only limited to smartphone users in the country but even to those who used feature phones.
All three factors led to an increase in the number of people using YouTube. That, in turn, led to more people coming to T-Series’ YouTube channel. The reason why an increase in YouTube’s user base in India is directly proportional to an increase in T-Series’ subscribers is the content on the channel. T-Series‘ YouTube channel has music videos from Bollywood, and this category is immensely popular with the Indian population. So, as more Indians came to YouTube for the first time, more number of people subscribed to T-Series.
We should mention that last year, the sudden increase in the channel’s popularity led to a war between PewDiePie and T-series for the maximum number of subscribers on YouTube. T-Series eventually surpassed PewDiePie as the biggest YouTube channel. However, before that, a number of things were done by PewDiePie and his followers to oppose it.
For instance, some printers were hacked last year which urged people to follow PewDiewPie. The YouTuber himself made two videos, Bitch Lasagna and Congratulations, in which he dissed T-Series, India and Indian people.

The Moto Z4 comes with a USB Type-C port and the 3.5mm headphone jack. The Moto Z4 retail package also included the 360-degree camera Moto Mod which can be used for photography with the device. Currently, the device is listed down from Amazon and probably won’t appear until the company officially announces it. Once it launches it will most probably be listed on Amazon for purchase. The Moto Z4 comes with a price tag of $500 (approximately Rs 34,956). A smartphone going on sale even before it is announced may be a surprise and a big blunder on the company’s part but it is not the first time it has happened. Back in 2017, Motorola’s entire line-up of 2017 devices was leaked online before its presentation. Talking about leaks and renders are one thing but an unannounced smartphone going on sale is totally another.

Samsung Galaxy M40 gets listed on company’s official website and Amazon India ahead of launch
After Samsung Galaxy M10, the Samsung Galaxy M20 and the Samsung Galaxy M30 received largely positive reviews in the Indian market, the company is planning to launch another device in its Galaxy M-series. The new Samsung Galaxy M40 was already announced by the company after the launch of the Samsung Galaxy M30 and now it has been confirmed that it will be coming to the India on June 11. Samsung has revealed a teaser of its upcoming device – Samsung Galaxy M40 – on its official website and Amazon India. Since it is listed on Amazon.in, there is a chance it will be sold exclusively on Amazon itself. Some highlights of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy M40 is that it will feature an Infinity-O or punch-hole display (similar to the Samsung Galaxy S10-series) and it will be the first in its series. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 600-series SoC which is also a first in its series as the earlier Samsung Galaxy M-series device are powered by company’s own Exynos CPUs.
The Samsung Galaxy M40 is still days away and it is already listed on Amazon India which hints that Amazon will be the exclusive seller of the device. The Samsung Galaxy M40 will also sport a triple-rear camera at the back and it will be the fourth smartphone in the Samsung Galaxy M-series. Before the launch of the device, the South Korean technology giant has shared some of the images of the Samsung Galaxy M40 on its official website and Amazon India as a teaser. The teaser images show a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner at the back along with a single LED flash beside the camera setup.
Samsung Galaxy M40 price and specifications (expected)
Although the official specifications of the device are currently not out but according to the leaks the Samsung Galaxy M40 will sport a Super AMOLED with a punch-hole camera cutout. It will reportedly be powered by the Snapdragon 675 SoC and will pack a huge 5,000mAh battery. There will reportedly be 6GB of RAM on the device paired with 128GB of internal storage. The device will reportedly run Android 9 Pie skinned with One UI and will have Wi-Fi 802.11ac for connectivity. Now, talking about the pricing of the Samsung Galaxy M40, we expect it to hold a price tag of around Rs 25,000. Earlier devices from the Samsung Galaxy M-series have been priced in the low to mid-range segment and that is one of their major selling points. If the company does place it in the 20K price range then it will be competing against the like of Oppo F11 Pro, Vivo V11 Pro, Poco F1 and Nokia 8.1.

The company is expected to make a number of software and service-related announcements at the WWDC 2019. The key announcement at the event is supposed to be the iOS 13. However, ahead of the event, some screenshots of the iOS 13 have surfaced online that show the new Dark Mode that Apple was rumoured to be working on for so long.
The screenshots of iOS 13, that were first shared by 9to5Mac, and according to them, the Dark Mode will appear to work across the dock in apps like Music and the built-in screenshot toll. The company will reportedly also add a switch in the Control Center or within the main iOS Settings page.
The Reminders app for iOS 13 can also appear to be completely revamped in the company’s next operating system update. The app can be seen to come with separate sections for today, scheduled, flagged, and all. The app will also let you search through existing reminders. Apple is also reported to combine its Find my Friends and Find my iPhone apps into a single app called ‘Find My’. This app is also likely to be unveiled at the WWDC 2019 next week.
Apple’s iOS 13 is said to include a revamped Health app, upgraded Maps app, and come with native support to use the iPad as a secondary Mac screen. The Dark Mode will be among the most prominent change across the iPhone and iPad. However, we should mention that a number of third-party apps have already created Dark Mode skin for their apps.
The Cupertino based technology giant had sent out invites for its event last week and confirmed that the event will take place on June 3 at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California. It is a very important event for Apple considering how much it has started focussing on its services business lately.
We should mention that over the past few years, Apple has made a number of services including augmented reality, mobile payments and music-streaming. More recently, Apple also announced its News subscription service and Apple TV+, for which it has partnered with many celebrities including Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston.
At the WWDC 2019, we expect the Cupertino based technology giant to come up with more details about what its plans with its services and also give us an insight into the iOS 13. Luckily, we don’t have to wait too much for it as June 3 is less than a fortnight away.

Intel unveils its Multi-Display laptops at the Computex 2019, Optane Memory M15 and NUC Elements also announced
Computex 2019 is mid-way through and all the major brands are launching and announcing their next projects and products at the event. Intel is no exception to this and the company has launched and unveiled multiple products at the event. Most of these products are currently a ‘Prototype’ project which the company is working on but there are some which would be launched for the general consumers sometime later. Now, the company has come up with a new ‘Honeycomb Glacier’ form factor laptop with a secondary screen. It is something similar to the Asus’s ZenBook Pro Duo which was also announced earlier at Computex 2019.
The new laptop uses a secondary hinge which allows the main display to be raised to eye level while the second display which is placed above the keyboard is also raised and inclined for the user to see and use. Intel’s new concept laptop is fully functional and it also comes with features such as eye tracking to automatically activate the window the user is looking at across both the displays. There is also a voice assistant which the user can use to command the device using his voice. Since the secondary display is raised in Intel’s new prototype, it provides more cooling to the device.
Intel’s another concept device comes with a full-sized second display instead of a keyboard or trackpad. It was covered in fabric material and it was designed to feel like a folio. There is a stiff hinge on the device which lets it stand as a regular laptop but it can be opened at varying angles. As the previous model, this model of laptop can be used for multitasking using both the screens. There is also an option to use the secondary display as a keyboard and trackpad as it would be displayed on the second screen itself. But it can also be connected with a Bluetooth physical keyboard. The keyboard is slim in build and can be carried between the screens of the laptop.

The device will come in multiple variants with different CPU, memory and storage configurations. The price details and the availability of the device will be announced sometimes later in the future.
Lastly, the new Optane Memory M15 was also announced by the company at the Computex 2019. According to the company, it provides better power efficiency and performance than the previous generation.

Cupertino based technology giant Apple has done something that nobody was expecting it to. The company has refreshed its iPod Touch after almost four years.

The technology giant has also introduced a 256GB variant of its iPod Touch with the new refreshed version.
We should mention that iPod Touch was refreshed last in July 2015, and its last version was launched along with iPod shuffle and iPod nano. The previous version of iPod Touch was powered by the Apple A8 chip, which is also present in the iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus. According to the company, the new version’s CPU works twice as fast as the predecessor’s and offers three times better graphics.

Chinese technology company ByteDance, which owns the popular video sharing app TikTok, has seen tremendous success in the last one year. While it is not the company that founded the app, it acquired Musical.ly and merged it into TikTok. In India, it gained a lot of attention and garnered a huge user-base. Now, reports have surfaced online that suggest that ByteDance is looking to expand its services and is working to launch a new smartphone. The ByteDance smartphone will come pre-loaded with various apps by the company.
As of now, no details about the ByteDance smartphone are available, but it is speculated to be a budget device that will cater to the typical audience that uses apps by the company. According to the report in the Financial Times, the handset is currently in works.
Apart from TikTok, ByteDance’s portfolio also includes Douyin, which is the Chinese version of TikTok. While both the apps are known to work on the same software, ByteDance has separate networks for both of them since China has stricter censorship laws. News Republic and TopBuzz are also a part of the company’s portfolio.
Another report that cites Financial Times says that the smartphone will have the entire suite of ByteDance‘s consumer apps pre-installed on it. The handset is also expected to have features that are geared around the TikTok app. As we mentioned earlier, the ByteDance smartphone is expected to be a budget offering as most of the people who use the TikTok are young and they may not want to buy something in the premium smartphone category.
According to a report in The Verge, ByteDance has signed a deal with Smartisan to get the patent portfolio and hire some of their employees. By doing this, the company may be getting things in place to make its own smartphone. However, we can’t say whether people or even die-hard TikTok fans would be willing to buy a smartphone like this, especially because the app works on all Android and iOS devices.
A few weeks back, TikTok had faced a ban in India and was taken off from Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store. This happened because a PIL was filed which claimed that the app had a lot of pornographic content. Later, the ban was removed from the app under the condition that it regulates the content on its platform better and ensures that no inappropriate videos stay there.
