Realme Narzo 30 Pro launched in India: 5 reasons to junk the smartphone

Realme Narzo 30 Pro, the latest model in the Narzo series, is launched in India. The Realme Narzo 30 Pro is a rebranded model of the Realme Q2 that was launched in October 2020. It comes with a starting price of Rs 16,999. If you are thinking of buying it right away, please restrain yourself a little bit and go through the following points, as there are much better companies to go for. Here is why we think Realme Narzo 30 Pro is not the perfect choice at this price point, as the company is claiming it to be.

1) Processor could have been better

The Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G comes with a MediaTek MT6873 Dimensity 800U 5G chipset. Other brands like Moto and Samsung are releasing their mid-range smartphone with powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon processors. When subjected to resource-demanding tasks like gaming, the Narzo 30 Pro 5G will surely lag behind the other smartphones. Moreover, 5G must run on a powerful processor, which is missing in this smartphone.

2) No advancement in camera

On the rear, Realme Narzo 30 Pro has a triple-camera setup that includes a 48-megapixel primary sensor with an f/1.8 lens, 8-megapixel secondary sensor with an ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 2-megapixel macro shooter. The front camera setup lies inside a punch-hole cutout situated on the top left corner of the screen. You get a 16-megapixel selfie camera sensor at the front. There is nothing new about camera specification. It has the same set of front and rear cameras as you get in Narzo 20 Pro. So where is the upgrade?

3) The battery won’t last long

The Realme Narzo 30 Pro comes with a 5,000mAh battery. The 5G feature will ensure that the battery drains out even faster. In fact, Samsung offers a higher mAh battery at a cheaper price. Motorola gives you the same power battery at half the price of Narzo 30 Pro. Thus, when it comes to power, we were expecting at least a 6,000 mAh battery.

4) In an era of AMOLED, who wants IPS LCD?

The Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G comes with a standard 6.5-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 90.7 percent screen-to-body ratio. The panel operates at full-HD+ resolution. Does it sound amazing? No, because you are getting an IPS LCD that is not capable of delivering the quality what an AMOLED screen can offer with the same refresh rate. Samsung offers a Super AMOLED display at a similar rate. So, if picture quality is a priority for you, Narzo 30 Pro is not something you should go ahead with.

5) Nothing new in the memory

The 4GB RAM 64GB storage model of the Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G will cost you Rs. 16,999 while the 8GB RAM 128GB memory configuration model is priced at Rs 19,999. At the max, you are getting 64 GB + 256 GB expandable storage. This is exactly what Narzo 20 Pro offers. There is no improvement in the memory department of Narzo 30 Pro 5G. Moreover, Motorola offers you 64GB storage at half the price. Thus, spending money for zero change is not worthwhile when in the recent future we expect some great advancement in the storage segment from its competition in the same price segment.

Bonus argument for not buying Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G

The user interface is the window through which you interact with your smartphone. The interface of this Realme smartphone looks obsolete and dated. If you buy it, you may face inconvenience in handling it, at least for a while. When compared to Samsung One’s UI, Xioami or Motorola’s Stock Android experience, Realme Narzo 30 Pro 5G is not what you should seek.

Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier KC-G60M-W Review: An ideal choice to purify your home and keep it natural

Air pollution in India has become a very serious problem and the only way to deal with it is a good air purifier. And it has become a necessity for all of us. There are many causes of air pollution — smoke emitted from motor vehicles, industrial pollution, burning of fossil fuels and so many other reasons contribute to not only polluting the outdoors but indoors, too. Air pollution is proven very harmful to human health and can also be fatal too. We need to protect our loved ones from the falling air quality and the air purifiers in India have become a necessity these days to control the indoor air quality. Looking at all these things Sharp in association with Q-Net has introduced a Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier in India. The device comes with Sharp’s patented Plasmacluster ion technology, an integrated humidifier, and 7 Intelligent-Detection Mode. The most recent addition to the line-up priced at Rs 97,620 puts it in direct competition with Dyson air purifiers as well as other big companies. Sharp offers to not only purify the indoor air but helps in keeping it that as natural as possible. So, we reviewed the product to know whether it ticks all the boxes in terms of features, performance and reliability. 

In This Article

Design

Starting with the design first, Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier KC-G60M-W comes with a state-of-the-art design and is not exactly like other air purification devices as it isn’t small in size. So, the larger the air purifier the more potential it has to cover a bigger space and will vent out more purified air with a powerful fan. Saying that, the Sharp Air Purifier is not too tall and not too wide and you don’t need to make more space for it to be adjusted anywhere in the room.    Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier The Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier includes intake vents at the back and it vents out clean air from the front as well as from the top. The control panel is at the top and the display is just below the air vent on the front that shows the air quality in the room. The control panel offers 7 Detection Intelligent modes, which operate automatically when you press the button whereas the humidifier and air purification are controlled according to the air quality of the room. Apart from humidification and air purification, the Sharp air purifier can also control odours and temperature too. In addition to this, there is a motion sensor that can detect movement and starts to work automatically. The operation panel includes a power button, intelligent mode button, haze button, Plasmacluster Ion Spot button, humidification button, mode button, on/off timer button and a display select button with child lock. Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier KC-G60M-W Review The front panel also displays humidity and temperature level in the room, wattage, and timer. There is an indicator for light for Plasmacluster ions, humidify light, odour light, dust light, haze and PM2.5 light. In addition to this, the front panel also indicates the air purity of the room in 7 levels with colour changes.

Performance

Sharp claims that its Zensational Air Purifier purifies the indoor air by emitting positive and negative ions, which are present in nature. It has also received certification from 28 global labs verified for safety and efficiency. The device comes with a Plasmacluster Ion technology that can destroy 29 different types of Pathogens (H1N1, MRSA, E.coli, Cladosporium, etc) present in the air and from the surfaces. That is why the Sharp purifiers are rated so highly. The Plasmacluster is Japanese technology that releases positive and negative ions in the air similar to how nature does. Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier KC-G60M-W Review Apart from cleansing the air it also works well for, eyes, skin as well as hair. Not only this it can also help in reducing asthma triggers, stop fungal growth and reduce static in the air, as the company suggests. While the humidifier is ideal for colder months. When the air gets dry and it not only humidifies the air but the pathogens that are present in the air become heavier due to the moisture in the air and they will drop down to the floor. So, this is very beneficial for those who have morning allergy symptoms like congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and coughing. We have been facing this issue since childhood and this air purifier helped us in dealing with the allergy symptoms in the morning and did not get us down and we woke up refreshed and ready to take on the day.  Sharp Qnet Zensational Air Purifier Review The Sharp Air Purifier comes with an active carbon filter and it also has the HEPA filter. There is a pre-filter that can trap up to 10-micron dust, pet hair, then there is a combination of HEPA filter and activated carbon filter that the company also calls a Panda filter that can eliminate PM 2.5 pollen and other Chemical Fumes & Toxins. As per the company, charges are generated inside the HEPA and the particles are trapped in corners thus not clogging the air path and maintaining efficiency. The pre-filter ensures that the HEPA filter lasts longer and the company claims that it can last up to 10 years, which is replaceable while the deodorising filter and the humidifying filter can also run for about 10 years after opening. Speaking of the fan speed the KC-G60M-W is noiseless and sometimes we even did not feel that the fan was even running. You would only probably feel it running when the air purifier kicks up when a significant amount of air pollutants are detected in the room and once it cleanses the air it becomes inaudible again.  This air purifier covers 538.196 sq feet which is a large room size and it ticks all the boxes for an ideal larger-sized bedroom or a living area.

Verdict

This SHARP-QNET Zensational Air Purifier is a unique combination of Air Purifier with dehumidifying function. It comes with a simplistic design and looks premium too, making this unit a choice for every home as well as low ventilated rooms, basements, laboratories and more to purify the air and maintain ideal moisture indoors. The extra features on this device makes it ideal for homes and thereby saves power, energy, and electricity. If you can afford it, we see no reason to not buy it. Pros: Extremely good performance Humidifier Plasmacluster Ion technology can destroy 29 different types of Pathogens Cons Lack of smart features overpriced For the latest gadget and tech news, and gadget reviews, follow us on TwitterFacebook and Instagram. For newest tech & gadget videos subscribe to our YouTube Channel.

New Windows 10 update is coming: Here are the things you will get next

Microsoft intends to release the Windows 10 21H1 update in the first half of the year with improvements and a new set of features. This update will be the eleventh installment since the original release and the first semi-annual update of 2021. Windows 10 21H1 will be an optional update for devices that run 20H2 since Microsoft initially wants to limit the availability to check potential issues for partially compatible devices. As soon as the new version is rolled out for your device, you will get a notification saying “Feature update to Windows 10, version 21H1”.

What new features you can expect from the new Windows 10 21H1 update?

  1. Windows Hello multi-camera function.
  2. Windows Defender Application Guard (WDAG) enhancements
  3. Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) Group Policy Service (GPSVC) improvements
  4. Microsoft Edge Chromium support for Windows 10 kiosk mode
  5. WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-Discovery Service enhancements
  6. Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) Device Management (DM) sync protocol updates
  7. Windows 10 boot times for application with roaming settings changes
What new features you can expect from the new Windows 10 21H1 update?
What new features you can expect from the new Windows 10 21H1 update?
According to John Cable, Vice President of Program Management for Windows Servicing and Delivery, “Windows 10, version 21H1 will have a scoped set of features improving security, remote access, and quality. The features we are releasing in this update are focused on the core experiences that customers have told us they’re relying on most right now. So, we optimized this release to support our customers’ most pressing needs.”

Will this be a big or small update?

When Microsoft originally launched Windows 10, it used to release two significant updates every subsequent year offering new features. However, in recent years, the company has veered slightly away from this. Microsoft now releases a big update every six months. For instance, the May 2020 Update (20H1) was significant. It was succeeded by a smaller October 2020 Update (20H2). Microsoft seems to break the pattern. Instead of following up the minute 20H2 update with a bigger 21H1 update, Microsoft is rolling out a small update in the 2021 spring. Thus, we can expect a significant update with a lot of new features in late 2021.

How will this update be an improvement over its predecessors?

You can expect the new update to bring the following upgrades. 1) Although the new Windows 10 21H1 update will not change the way you use Windows 10, it will concentrate on some essential areas like quality, remote access, and security. For instance, when you use Windows Hello during biometric authentication, the latest multi-camera feature will enable you to fix another camera as the default while using integrated webcams. 2) This new update will solve the delay problem in Windows Defender Application Guard (WDAG) while opening the Microsoft Office. 3) You’ll be able to achieve faster file copying of above 400MB as the new update will solve the problem that leads to high usage of system memory when the WDAG container is empty.
How will this update be an improvement over its predecessors?

4) Windows 10 21H1 will also offer better support for remote work situations when using Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) Group Policy Service (GPSVC). Also, it will solve the slow membership propagation while editing a user or computer group in Active Directory (AD). 5) It will updates the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) Device Management (DM) sync protocol by including a check-in object for requests from the client to the server. The check-in reason will enable the Mobile Device Management (MDM) service to make optimal decisions about sync sessions.

5 hidden features of Google maps you should know of on Android smartphones

Google Maps has made significant progress over the years changing the way we navigate the world. In our day-to-day life, it helps us reach our destination on time evading traffic delays and blockages. This has made Google Maps one of the most regarded apps in our Android smartphones. But you need to know some tricks to enhance the utlisation of Google Maps.  Here are some lesser-known tricks of Google Maps that we love to use, almost regularly.

1) Save your parking location

Sometimes we tend to forget where we have parked our vehicle particularly in large parking areas like malls, and new places. Google Maps can obtain your parked vehicles. To save your vehicle parking location, just tap the blue dot followed by clicking ‘Save your parking’. This would generate a label on the map recognizing where the vehicle is parked. To activate the parking reminder, swipe on the label once you save your parking location to begin the parking card and attach the details regarding your parking. You can even share your parking location with your friends and family.

2) Navigate for multiple destinations

Google Maps allows navigation to multiple destinations. This feature is useful when you have to visit places successively. For instance, you might first want to go back home and then visit a grocery store. You can add multiple stops in the Maps and drive efficiently. You just need to search for your final destination and select the three dots and then ‘Add stop’ to add the desired place as your destination. Google Maps allows you to add up to 9 stops and rearrange them according to the route.

3) Save Your Home and Work addresses

Traversing from your home to your workplace is a daily task. There are several advantages of setting up your home and work addresses on Google Maps. You don’t need to find and set the destination every time you begin your journey. You just have to say, “OK Google, navigate to home”. To set your home and workplace, follow these steps.
  • Open Google Maps
  • Select the hamburger icon located at the top left corner of the screen.
  • Select Your Places. You’ll see two entries, ‘Home and ‘Work’.
  • Fill in the respective addresses in two fields.

4) Use voice commands while driving

Using your smartphone while driving is risky. It is way easier to speak than to type while traveling. Google Maps accepts voice commands via speech. Here are a few voice commands that you can try.
  • Mute: Mutes voice guide
  • Show traffic: Displays the traffic on the route
  • Navigate Home: Navigates to your Home address
  • Show my ETA – Displays the estimated time left to reach your destination.

Predictive Text Feature Coming to Microsoft Word in March: Everything you need to know

Microsoft is intending to include the text prediction feature in Word starting March 2021. The new functionality, just like the existing predictions feature in Google Docs’ Smart Compose, will utilise Machine Learning to predict what the user can type as next words. This innovation will accelerate the document typing process for the user. According to Microsoft, the new feature in Word will help “users write more efficiently by predicting text quickly, timely and accurately.”

How will Microsoft Word’s Predictive Text Feature work?

As in Google Docs, the predictions feature on Word will highlight the predicted text in grey so that the user can include it in his file by pressing the ‘Tab’ key. He can even reject the predictive text by pressing ‘Esc’. The company says that the predictions will gradually become better as the Machine Learning algorithms recognise the writing pattern of the user. You will be able to turn off the predictive text feature on the whole if you don’t want to take the predictive words. The company claims that the data collected to implement the Machine Learning algorithm will not “leave the tenant boundary” and no other users will be able to fetch it. However, Microsoft Word users are free to file any complaints or give suggestions to the company regarding the new and old features by navigating to Help > Feedback.

When will Microsoft roll out Word’s Predictive Text Feature?

The text-prediction feature is expected to arrive in Microsoft Word in March. In September 2020, Microsoft presented the details about the text prediction feature in Word and revealed that what you type doesn’t leave the “tenant boundary” of your system. In other words, Whatever you type, is not captured by the software. According to Neowin, the feature has been included in the Microsoft 365 public roadmap and is expected to arrive next month. Microsoft had already released the text predictions feature for Outlook for the web in November 2020. This new feature appears to be associated with Microsoft 365. However, it’s not clear if the feature will be a part of the new Microsoft Office 2021. According to an official blog post, this new feature is available only for 50 percent of users of Windows Beta Channel running Version 2010 Build 13301.20004 or succeeding and to all Microsoft 365 SKUs on Word online leaving out the Microsoft 365 Business Basic, Microsoft 365 F3, Microsoft 365 A1.

What can be the implications of Microsoft Word’s Predictive Text Feature?

Predictive typing does not predict the entire sentence as it is trained to figure out only how you’re going to start or end a sentence though it’s not always accurate at the middle bits. The accuracy of the Machine Learning algorithm decreases as it’s required to make tougher guesses on fewer data. In 2020, OpenAI released a machine-learning-based text generator known as GPT-3 that is exceptionally accurate at producing texts that are tough to distinguish from human writing. But, it’s important to note that although algorithms like GPT-3 are excellent at constructing coherent sentences, they still falter at producing prose that’s logical. Thus the predictive typing feature in Word could be utilised to complete writing that obeys a template formula but can’t replace human effort in the real work of research and rhetoric.

Google had released its text predictions feature for its suite of applications in 2019. This made Google Docs the first choice for many people as it enhanced their typing speed and standard. The new prediction functionality could help Microsoft Word regain the market as it used to before Google dominated. Microsoft expects to release the predictions feature in Windows Outlook for enabling users to write refined mails at a faster pace.
