Swiggy, an online food delivering service on Tuesday announced that it would be expanding its business and is now going to deliver home essentials as well. Earlier it had tied up with restaurants only to deliver food and beverages.Now it has tied up with stores to deliver groceries, fruits, vegetables, baby care items, health products and much more, the company said in a statement.
It would deliver “categories such as fruits and vegetables, kiranas and supermarkets, florists, baby care, health and supplements among others. Today’s announcement takes Swiggy to categories beyond food, where we hope to deliver the same level of delightful experiences to consumers for their everyday needs,” Swiggy’s CEO Sriharsha Majety said.
This new service is named ‘Swiggy Stores’ and just like its food delivering app, it too will be accessible via the mobileapp. Although it is a first step towards the delivery of home goods by the company, other companies have been doing it from before. BigBasket and Grofers is an example of such service.
Swiggy has to compete with big market share holders like BigBasket, which has the Chinese MNC AliBaba backing it up. Over that the Badshah of Bollywood, Shahrukh Khan, is its brand ambassador. So, it can be said that BigBasket has already made a name for itself and has most of the market share presently. So, Swiggy has to do a better job than its competitor if it were to survive in the market.
Swiggy currently operates in more than 80 major Indian cities through its mobile app and website. It surely has a base from its food delivering service so it doesn’t have to start from scratch. Last week Swiggy bought an Artificial Intelligence (AI) named Kint.io that uses machine learning, deep learning and computer vision to recognize objects. Swiggy would use the AI for the Swiggy Stores service, too.
Introducing Swiggy STORES, a more easy, efficient and convenient way of ordering from stores around you! Now in Gurgaon:) https://t.co/TxK1CXK4bt
According to the company the next step would be to spread its reach to every store in every Indian city. The merchants who would partner with them would also be able to get new customers and this in turn will help their business, too. To the delivery partners, the company would give them a new and additional way of getting more income.
Founded in 2014, Swiggy is serving in a lot of cities, delivering food from over 60,000 restaurant, which is a big achievement for the company. Will they be able to make a mark in the competitive “kirana” sector as well? We will come to know in a few quarters.
Today, vivo has unveiled its new iQoo sub-brand in its home market.

The announcement of this new profile took place via a Chinese website called Weibo. The iQoo sub-brand is going to join the likes of Poco, Redmi, Nubia, Zuk and Honor.

Just like Samsung, Xiaomi is also working on its own version of a foldable smartphone. The phone is still in its early designs, but concept renders are out now. A video of the conceptual phone was also released where the company’s founder can be seen using the Xiaomi’s foldable phone.
According to a report on LetsGoDigital, where the company issued official statement, the company described its upcoming foldable smartphone. They also gave information about the development and design of this device. Over that, Xiaomi has also stated what challenges they faced when they were working on the foldable phone and the flexible screen.
The business also also spoke about the MIUI interface, which would be present on the foldable mobile. The interface is in development too and will be seen running on it at the time of launch. Glimpses of how MIUI would react to the phone and its screen were also showcased. According to the company officials, they are working with a supplier to develop the smartphone. The suppliers name has was not revealed.
Unlike Samsung’s folding phone, which has only one folding screen, the Xiaomi’s foldable phone will have two foldable screens. These fold outwards unlike Samsung’s inward folding smartphone. Xiaomi’s dual folding screen will curve back to wrap the rear of the phone.
Developing a UI for such a complex screen is tricky that’s why they have been working on an upgraded MIUI user interface, which can support the foldable design. The phone when folded would look like a regular phone, but when unfolded it would turn into a tablet with thin bezels. The apps and contents of the screen too would change according to the large screen size.
Report of a camera on the smart is still unclear. Also, there was no sign of it in any of the leaked videos. There is a possibility that the back of the phone where the screen wraps might hold a camera. However, no official statement has come out from the company on it. The bottom of the phone has a USB Type-C charging port while the top has a button, which might be the power button . The ear piece is placed under it.
If Xiaomi releases its foldable phone this year then it would compete directly with Samsung Galaxy F. No doubt, both the companies have their own ideas of what their foldable phones would look like and be able to do . Whatever the case might be, these new smartphones would be a fresh sight for sore eyes.

A number of smartphone makers are expected to launch their 5G smartphones at the upcoming Mobile World Congress that is scheduled to begin on February 25. Samsung, LG, and Huawei are just a few of the companies that will be seen taking wraps off their 5G devices and lineup at the tech show in Barcelona.
Now, a report has surfaced on XDA Developers that suggests that Chinese smartphone brand OnePlus will also be seen launching a smartphone that comes with the newest standard of cellular mobile communications.
We should mention that we would not be surprised if this happens as OnePlus CEO Pete Lau was quoted saying last year at the Qualcomm Snapdragon Tech Summit that the company will be launching its 5G enabled smartphone in 2019. He further said that the 5G smartphone by OnePlus will cost $200 or $300 more than its 6T smartphone. Keeping in mind that OnePlus 6T is priced at $549, the 5G smartphone by the Chinese handset brand will be priced around $750 or $850. Needless to say, OnePlus’s 5G smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 mobile platform and X50 modem, since 5G connection would need both.
It is worth noticing that OnePlus has also said that the 5G smartphone that it will be launching this year will not be a part of its regular flagship lineup. Instead, OnePlus will be launching it as a part of a separate range altogether. The company has said that it will be doing this because it wants to main its strategy of launching flagship smartphones at affordable prices.
According to a report that had surfaced on CNET in December, the 5G smartphone by OnePlus will first be launched in the UK and the company has partnered with EE for the same. Furthermore, the report also said that OnePlus’ 5G smartphone will be launched as early as the end of May.
Samsung is also expected to launch the 5G smartphone this year for which it has partnered with Verizon. Other smartphone makers that are expected to launch their 5G smartphones this year are Oppo and Xiaomi. However, we would have to wait till the MWC 2019 to begin to get the official dates of their respective smartphones.
Sony is known for making smartphones with good cameras and screen, but currently is not too active in the smartphone market. Its last launched smartphone was the XZ3, which was launched back in August of 2018. But recently, a video has surfaced online that leaked the company’s newest smartphone, the Sony Xperia XA3.
The Sony Xperia XA3 is rumoured to have an aspect ratio of 21:9 with CinemaWide display. The leak was reported on sumahoinfo.com where the phone was seen with an unusually tall display and slim bezels. The display might come with a full-HD+ 1080×2560 resolution. It is not the first time the images XA3 has been leaked online, images of the phone with tall display had been surfaced earlier as well.
The leaked phone has a dual camera setup with LED flash which is in line with the previously leaked images of the phone. According to the rumours, the back camera setup might have a 23MP primary shooter paired with an 8MP secondary sensor.
The CinemaWide display being featured on Sony XA3 was originally thought to be featured in the next flagship of Sony’s XZ smartphones, the Sony Xperia XZ4. Both these phones are allegedly going to be showcased at the MWC 2019. There might be two variants of Sony XA, the XA3 with screen size of 5.9-inches and the XA3 Ultra with screen size of 6.5-inches.
A leaked video also shows three physical buttons on the right side of the Sony Xperia XA3, which could be a power button and volume rocker keys. There is also a fingerprint scanner between the power and the volume buttons. This means the company has put the scanner on the side of the phone like it did with some of its earlier phones.
The Sony Xperia XA3 might come in four colour options, Black, Pink, Silver and Blue, with a USB Type-C port. It might have bottom firing speakers on each side of the charging port. Over that, this mobile will come with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 660SoC putting it in the mid-range segment. It could be paired with a 4GB or 6GB of RAM and 64GB storage, and should have the latest Android version 9.0 Pie.
The release date of the phone is not revealed yet. But since Sony is holding a press event at MWC 2019 we might get to hear more about the Xperia Sony XA3, Sony XA3 Ultra and maybe also the Sony XZ4.
The top end model of the Samsung Galaxy S10 series, the Samsung Galaxy S10+ is expected to launch with a ceramic colour, apart from its ususal colours. FTP Shop, a Vietnamese retailer, claimed that the Samsung Galaxy S10+ is going to come at a cost of VND 30,990,000 that is roughly Rs 94,643. The same retailer has listed the smartphone with 8GB RAM coupled with 512GB internal storage.
However, there are rumours about this smartphone to carry a 12GB RAM coupled with 1TB internal storage, too. Though the 12GB RAM has not been confirmed right now, rumours mills ar churning it could be a possibility.
The 1TB storage has been confirmed, as Samsung announced a 1TB UFS chip for its upcoming phones last month. Nevertheless, it is not known whether the Samsung Galaxy S10 models are the only ones to get this storage. It is pretty obvious that the cost of the variant with as much as 1TB storage is going to be very high.
Also, FTP Shop listed the non-ceramic Galaxy S10 with 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. Recently, the Samsung Galaxy S10E was similarly leaked. From what we know, one of the colour options which the smartphone is going to have is canary yellow.
News reports released this render of the smartphone, which shows it comes with a metallic frame and an Infinity-O display. There is a glossy back panel on the the Samsung Galaxy S10E, which is coloured in canary yellow. Also, at the back there is a dual rear camera setup that are stacked horizontally and at the right side of it, there is a Samsung logo. In the renders, we see that there is a fingerprint scanner at the right edge.The volume rocker and a dedicated Bixby button can be seen on the left edge of the smartphone.

The Samsung Galaxy S10E is rumoured to measure 142.5×70.5×8.1mm and sport a 5.8-inch display. Amongst all the smartphones, which are part of the Samsung Galaxy S10 series, this one is supposed to be the smallest. The Samsung Galaxy S10 on the other hand is expected to come with a 6.1-inch display with dimensions of 149.9×71.6×8.1mm. It goes without saying the Samsung Galaxy S10+ is the most premium one of the pack. The handset is said to sport a display measuring 6.4-inches.

Google Maps is a blessing for most of us, as it helps us to not lose our way while we are travelling. If you have an Android smartphone, we are sure you would have used the app at least at some point when you wanted to know the right directions to a place. With Google Maps, there is not much of a possibility of getting lost, unless you are directionally-challenged. It even has a built-in compass which always points in the right direction.
Now, Google is set to make its app more useful by adding AR (Augmented Reality) to Google Maps. The new feature has been named ‘Global Localization’ and it combines Google Street View with Visual Positioning and then binds them with machine learning. Although this feature in Google Maps was showcased back in 2018 Google I/O, Google has now decided to release a beta version of the app for select individuals who are Local Guides. These Local Guides are a group of reviewers of the Google Maps platform and they will be testing the beta version to see if the app is working as it is supposed to work. According to Google, the app needs ‘more testing’ before it is released for the users.
This feature makes it easier for the user to know where he is and in which direction he is facing. With the feature, if the user points his smartphone’s camera to places, buildings or streets the app, using the machine learning, tells the user the exact location and name of the place. And it also shows the user in which direction to turn by pointing a big, bold arrow towards the destined location. Also, the actual live map will be shown at the bottom of the screen. Once the destination is in sight of the camera it would mark it with a big red identifier like Google Maps’ destination does.
Currently, it is in its beta phase but we are expecting to release soon. And its future implications could be tremendous, as Google Maps with AR may come to wearables too, which would make travelling to new places much easier and reduce the possibility of getting lost close to zero.
It comes with 3GB RAM and 4GB RAM. Two models are available at a price of Rs 10,990 and Rs 12,990. This is our video review of the Samsung Galaxy M20.

Reports about Nokia 9 PureView have been circulating online for months now, and as the launch of the much-talked-about smartphone approaches, more and more rumours about it have been surfacing.
Till now, we have seen a few sets of renders that have given us an insight into what the Nokia 9 PureView will look like. A recent report also suggested that HMD Global will be launching a variant of Nokia 9 PureView with Snapdragon 855 in Summer this year.
Now, the smartphone has appeared in the Android Enterprise Recommended catalog, which is a program that was launched by technology giant Google last year. The program’s purpose is to get companies to trust smartphones with the Android operating system for enterprise use. Under the program, Google gives smartphones its seal of approval only if they meet certain requirements to be fit for enterprise use.
Some Nokia smartphones by HMD Global already fall under the Android Enterprise Recommended program, and from what it looks like, Nokia 9 PureView will be a part of the program too.
According to the catalog listing, the Nokia 9 PureView smartphone will sport a 6-inch display and come with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. The listing further said that Nokia 9 PureView will run Android 9.0 Pie and have support for NFC. We should mention that till now, most reports suggested that Nokia 9 PureView will come with 6GB of RAM, however, there is a possibility that the device will be launched in multiple RAM/storage variants.
Other features and specifications that have been reported about are an in-display fingerprint scanner, Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, and a display with 2880×1440-pixel resolution. The key highlight of the smartphone is said to be its penta-camera setup on its back panel. Although the nature of sensors is not known yet, a wide-angle and a telephoto lens are expected to be onboard. The camera sensors and the LED flash will be placed in a hexagonal pattern on the back panel of the smartphone, according to the invite image the company shared a few days back.
Nokia 9 PureView is one among the most-awaited smartphones from HMD Global’s lineup and the company will be seen taking wraps off it on February 24 at Mobile World Congress 2019 in Barcelona.
Apex Legends, a new take on battle royale was released by EA and Respawn Entertainment last week. And in just three days after its release, the game had 10 million registered players logging in and playing online. Now, a week after its release, Apex Legends has registered more than 25 million players, according to the game maker Respawn Entertainment. These numbers show how popular the newly-released game has become. Players of PUBG and Fortnite, the games which are currently the leaders of the genre, are also giving Apex Legends a try. Respawn’s CEO Vince Zampella tweeted that the game has recorded ‘well over’ 2 million players over the weekend.
Apex Legends is a game set in the same universe as ‘Titanfall’ but it does not continue with the same story line. We can say that the game is basically set in a different pocket of the same universe. While its mechanics are similar to that of its competitors but the graphics, the gameplay and the physics is where it differs from them. Apex Legends is available for free and can be downloaded on PC as well as consoles
According to the company, they were experimenting with the genre and were trying something new, but even they had no idea it would instantly explode in the popularity charts. If we compare Apex Legends with its competitors – Fortnite and PUBG – we see that the game is doing extremely well in its early months of release. It was only after four months of its release that Fortnite was able to see 45 million registered players and PUBG also had a similar growth chart. Currently, both the games have more than 200 million players each, so it will be interesting to see how Apex Legends competes with them. Both Fortnite and PUBG now have their mobile versions for iOS as well for Android and it was their release on the mobile platforms that made the games’ downloads and popularity surge so much. Both the games also have cross-platform and cross-progress features which means that they can be played on different consoles using the same ID without the loss of the in-game progress.
But we won’t be seeing any smartphone version of Apex Legends anytime soon as the company wants to keep it limited to the big screens. But then, there will be a time when the number of console and PC players for the game would stop increasing at the same pace as it is doing today. Maybe then we would get to see a smartphone version of the game, which is likely to increase the popularity of the game.
Respawn Entertainment or EA have other plans for Apex Legends. To begin with, they are planning to start a e-sports Apex Legends Tournament later this month. Furthermore, a Valentine’s Day themed loot will be rolled out in the game this week. The first season of the game is set to begin in March with battle pass subscriptions. So, it would be really exciting to see the progress the game makes, and if it would it be able to top off and take over the current leaders of the ever-popular battle royale genre.
Been waiting all day to tell you this madness… @PlayApex hit 25 million players this morning. Read more about it at the link below. Remember we have Season One starting in March and more surprises coming. https://t.co/gwj1sZSQnY
Apple launched the iPhone SE back in 2016 and the smartphone went on garner a lot of appreciation and success as it was an option for those who did not wish to use iPhones with big displays. We wouldn’t be wrong to say that the main reason behind the demand for the iPhone SE was its 4-inch display. The smartphone is going to complete three years next month and a number of fans have been looking forward to its successor for very long time.
Now, a concept video of the iPhone SE successor has surfaced online. This new model is known as the iPhone SE 2 and the new video tells us a lot about the smartphone. The concept video was first posted by ConceptiPhone and it shows the iPhone SE 2 reimagined for modern times without compromising on its form factor.
The new concept video shows a device that is small and compact with edge-to-edge display that has a notch top to house the Face ID camera. Also, the concept render imagines a glass back panel. Therefore, there are huge chances that the iPhone SE 2 will come with support for wireless charging. Furthermore, a single rear camera with a bump can be seen in the video which resembles the current iPhones and the iPad Pro. The concept render video has been made by Gunho Lee and it shows that the iPhone SE 2 will come in multiple colour options, namely gold, red, silver and blue.
A previous render of the iPhone SE 2 had surfaced online in the form of a screen protector. Last year, there were various speculations that suggested iPhone SE 2’s launch during Apple’s September event along with the iPhone XS, but as we all know, that did not happen.
To recall, the iPhone SE sports a 4-inch 640×1,136 display with an aspect ratio of 16:9. It comes with 2GB RAM that is clubbed with 16GB, 32GB, 64GB or 128GB onboard storage. The iPhone SE houses a single rear camera of 12MP and a single front camera of 1.2MP meant for taking selfies.
Connectivity options of the device includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2, GPS, NFC and USB 2.0. Sensors onboard include fingerprint scanner, gyro sensor, accelerometer, proximity sensor and compass. The iPhone SE houses a 1,624mAh non-removable battery and comes in four colour options including space gray, silver, gold and rose gold.

At its developer conference, Samsung showed a prototype device that worked as a tablet as well as a candy bar phone and said that the consumer product will be launched in 2019 and its mass production would begin in the “coming months”.
Even though the foldable phone is set to launch as soon as next week, very little information about the specifications of the smartphone is available online. But it is being speculated that Samsung Galaxy F will come with top-of-the-line hardware and will hence, be expensive. Some reports have suggested that Samsung Galaxy F will cost more than $1,500 and if this is true, it will be the most expensive smartphone by the company till date.
It has also been reported that Samsung will be launching its Galaxy F foldable phone on February 20 ahead of its original schedule to stay ahead of Huawei, which may showcase its 5G foldable phone at the Mobile World Congress, that is scheduled to begin on February 24 in Barcelona. MWC 2019 may also see Oppo and Nubia announcing their respective foldable phones.

Exynos processors are the homegrown chipset of Samsung and it releases most of its phones with its own processors in them. But now these processors might be seen in phones other than Samsung. Motorola, which is a smartphone manufacturing company owned by Lenovo has been reported to have been making phones with Samsung’s Exynos processors in them.
In the past Motorola has put many different SoCs in their phones like the Qualcomm’s Snapdragon or the MediaTek chipsets. But it will be the first time Motorola phones will be coming with Exynos processors.
According to a recent report, Motorola has been working on two new smartphones which will have Samsung’s Exynos chipsets powering them. And among the different series of Exynos processors they will have the Exynos 7 Series 9610 processor and will have Android One in both of the phones. Exynos 7 Series is the mid-range processors, which Samsung puts in its own mid-range smartphones. But details and specifications about those alleged phones are still not known.
Talking about the chipset, the Exynos 7 Series 9610 has been manufactured using Samsung’s 10nm fabrication process. It is a mid-range smartphone CPU that has an octa-core SoC, which we saw in 2018 March during its launch. It has four Cortex-A73 cores clocking at 2.3GHz. While the other four cores are energy efficient and they are clocked at 1.6GHz.
The processor is paired with an Arm Mali-G72 GPU. The Exynos 7 Series 9610 can support 480fps slow-motion full HD video recording and comes with Cat. 12 3CA connectivity with Downlink of 600Mbps and uplink of 150Mbps. It also has Bluetooth 5.0 and face detection.
The closest competitor of the Exynos 7 Series 9610 is the Snapdragon 660, which also has an octa-core CPU clocking at 2.2GHz and 1.8GHz respectively. It has Adreno 512 GPU and comes with LPDDR4 RAM. Like its Exynos counterpart it too comes with Cat. 12 3CA with Downlink of 600Mbps and uplink of 150Mbps.
Recently, Motorola launched new smartphones in its Moto G series with Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets in them. The Moto G7, Moto G7 Play and Moto G7 Power comes with Snapdragon 632SoC while the Moto G7 Plus comes with Snapdragon 636SoC. So, it will be interesting to see how the Exynos powered Moto phones perform against their Snapdragon powered counterpart.
Apple Airpods made headlines when it was launched with its no wire and unique ‘applesque’ design. It made a new standard for earphones, but now a second generation of Apple Airpods are coming soon. The Apple Airpods 2 were seen last year on the Bluetooth SIG website. It was confirmed that they would be having the newest version of Bluetooth, version 5.0.
The release of the Airpods 2 is not known till now and no official comment has come from Apple Inc, but we can see them releasing this year. According to rumors Apple Airpods 2 might work with wireless charging pads, much like what we saw on Galaxy Pods leaked pictures last week. According to a report, the Airpods 2 will look more or less the same as its predecessor from the outside.
But it’s on the inside where things change, it might have more bass response than the original Airpods. For better grip the upcoming Airpods will have a new coating on top that will be similar to what Google uses for their Pixel smartphones. We might see similar coating on the upcoming iPhone 11’s high-end variant as well, releasing later this year. There is a chance that the alleged Airpods 2 might be released with Apple iPhone 11 itself.
It’s not first time the news and leaks about the Airpods 2 has surfaced online. It happened in the previous year where it was claimed that it will have more sensors than the original Apple Airpods. The leaked report also suggested that the new Airpods might be used for health features, which might include a heart rate monitor in them.
If this tale is true than Apple might be learning something from Samsung. It has been putting health monitoring apps and features in its phones and accessories for a long time. The battery of the new Airpods is said to be similar to what the Airpods 1 had. Nonetheless, they will be coming in two colours – White and Black, while the Airpods 1 came only in White.
Now for the most important part, the price of the Airpods 1 when launched was $159 (Rs 11,300 approx) but the Airpods 2 is expected to be priced at $200 (Rs 14,200 approx). Yes, it is costlier than its predecessor but if it will have any of the above things then the price might be justified.
South Korean technology giant Samsung became the first ever company to launch a smartphone with a hole-punch display when it unveiled the Galaxy A8s last year. When the Samsung Galaxy A8s was launched, the device was available in three colours – Blue, Grey and Green.
Soon afterwards, Samsung rolled out a ‘Female Edition’ of the Galaxy A8s smartphone that has a yellow-pink coloured gradient back panel. Now, the Samsung Galaxy A8s has been launched in the fifth coloured variant, which is called the Unicorn Edition or the Unicorn Pink. The new colour variant has a gradient back panel with pink and blue shades.
However, we should mention that the Unicorn Pink variant of the Samsung Galaxy A8s is only available in the 6GB RAM/128GB storage model and as of now, is only available in China. Powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor and has an LCD screen with a Full HD+ resolution and aspect ratio of 19.5:9.
The smartphone has a triple rear camera setup with a 24MP sensor with an f/1.7 aperture, a 10MP telephoto lens (with f/2.4 aperture) and a 5MP depth sensing sensor (f/2.2 aperture). The top left corner of the display has a 6.7mm hole that houses the 24MP selfie camera of the smartphone and because of this, the device by Samsung comes without any notch.
We should mention that Samsung calls this type of screen as Infinity-O display and it has previously said earlier that it has come up with it to give its users a full-screen experience. However, we cannot rule out the possibility of the hole-punch on the screen causing hindrance while watching videos.
The back panel of the smartphone houses a fingerprint sensor and the device comes with a 3,400mAh battery with adaptive fast charging support. Samsung Galaxy A8s runs Android 8.1 Oreo skinned with Samsung’s UI.
Samsung Galaxy A8s is available at JD.com for CNY2,799. There is another variant of the smartphone that comes with 8GB of RAM, however, that will cost you CNY300 more than the 6GB RAM mode. Also, you would have to pick between Black/Green and Blue variants if you are buying the 8GB RAM variant, as it is not available in Unicorn Pink colour.
F&D launched their first ever party speakers in India – the Party BOOSTER W40. It is a portable Bluetooth speaker with an output of 40W. Being a portable speaker it has a compact form factor. According to the company the speaker has excellent bass and built-in lights, which would look like a party speaker and has DJ sound effects when turned on, hence the name.
“We are excited to launch the range of Party Speakers, which are designed and developed exclusively for the millennials. The Speakers can ignite party atmosphere with DJ sound effects, anytime anywhere. With the exclusive F&D sound quality, one shall see the difference in why this is the ideal party pick,” Mukesh Bansal, Director F&D said.
F&D Party BOOSTER W40 Bluetooth speaker tech specs
The speaker has a 2.5-inch full range driver that according to the company gives good bass at low frequencies. It comes with TWS technology, which allows the user to connect two speakers of same kind together to give that ‘club-like’ stereo sound experience. The front panel of the speaker has RGB LED lighting that changes according to the music.
F&D Party BOOSTER W40 Bluetooth speaker has a 1,800mAh battery that the company assures will give a long playback time. But they didn’t mention the exact or overall time till which it would give the ‘millennials’ the party atmosphere. It also does come with a microSD card slot so the user can insert the memory card directly in to the speaker and play the music stored in the card. So, they won’t have to connect their phones or laptops to the speaker via Bluetooth.
It also has the TF and Aux connectivity option so it can be connected with an Aux cable to either phone or laptops. It has Play and Pause buttons to control the music and it also comes with a built-in FM radio.
F&D Party BOOSTER W40 Bluetooth speaker price and colour options
The company has priced the F&D Party BOOSTER W40 Bluetooth speaker at Rs 12,990 and it is available in online as well as offline markets. There are two colour options for the WP 400 to choose from – grey and black.
Despite it being aimed for millennials and the younger audience, they might find stiff competition in the market. There are many contestants in the BT speaker arena, which might prove to be a challenge for F&D.
Fortnite’s developing company, Epic games introduced an ‘account merge tool’ for players. This tool is available to players all over the world. This new feature allows players to merge different Fortnite accounts on different/multiple platforms (PC, phones or consoles) into only one account. And this news is like a blessing for the Fortnite lovers who play the game on more than one platform using multiple accounts.
With this tool the players could play cross-platform. After using this tool, the players can get access to all their skins, V-Bucks, weapons and their in-game progress from any platform they are currently playing on. But to get started with the account merge tool the players have to follow some rules. The rule is that once a player starts the merger they won’t be able to access their in-game items for a certain time duration. Fortnite will take the in-game items from other accounts for a duration of two weeks before merging the items and other things to the main account. The company also said that the players should have access to all their email accounts which they have used to play on different platforms or through which they have created their game accounts. And they need to have full access to the accounts they are trying to merge. The company also said that none of the accounts the users are trying to merge should be disabled or banned.
Battle royale players of Fortnite can merge all their cosmetic items like skins and weapon skins etc. But the users of ‘Save the World’ can also merge their Defenders, Heroes, Llamas, Survivors, Evolution, XP and Perk Materials. The company also warned that all the secondary account items like the Creative Islands, Unreal Marketplace, Save the World Account level and progress will not be merged.
Back in September of 2018 this feature was leaked online after Sony allowed cross-platform plays with their PS4. And it was planned to be released back in November of 2018 but due to some issues Epic Games delayed the release of the tool. But now that its finally here Fortnite players can rest assured knowing their progress is saved.
Fitbit has today launched its new fitness tracker in India today, however, it is worth noticing that you cannot buy the newly launched products like the ones that were earlier launched by the company. The first ever business to business tracker by the Fitbit — Fitbit Inspire — is only being made available with a few companies and some health insurance members with the fitness tracker maker.
According to Fitbit, the fitness tracker is the most affordable one by the company yet, however, it hasn’t revealed the device’s exact pricing. Fitbit has also launched its Fitbit Inspire HR fitness tracker that comes with heart-rate tracking and some other key features aimed at healthcare.
Speaking of Fitbit Inspire, it can track daily activities and sleep and sends users alerts for calls, texts and calendar events. The tracker has a touchscreen display and is water resistant, so it can be used while you go swimming. The company has also claimed that the Inspire fitness band’s battery can last up to five days when it is charged completely.
Coming to Fitbit Inspire’s HR variant, apart from tracking heart-rate, the fitness band can also be used to track sleep stages and record real-time pace and distance with the help of user’s smartphone’s GPS.
While the Fitbit Inspire is available in Black and Sangria colours, Fitbit Inspire HS can be bought in Black, White/Black and Lilac colours. Both the devices can either be used as fitness bands or be used as clips, however, in order to use it as latter, you will have to buy a clip accessory.
Speaking about the new fitness trackers, Fitbit has said on its website, “These special release trackers are available exclusively through Fitbit corporate, wellness, health plan, and health systems partners and customers of their organisations, participants, and members.”
As of now, Fitbit is competing with Chinese consumer electronics maker Xiaomi and Cupertino based technology giant Apple in the fitness wearables market. In terms of shipments of devices, Xiaomi and Apple have the top two slots to themselves in the fitness wearables segment, while Fitbit currently sits on the third position.
We’ll get to see the next iPhones only months later in September. However, that doesn’t mean that reports about the upcoming iPhones are not being circulated online. After two sets of very different renders of the 2019 iPhones surfaced online, it was recently reported that Apple has plans to launch three iPhones in 2019, which will succeed iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR.
Now, a report in Droid Shout says that the prices of the upcoming iPhones will be the same as iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR in the United States. Going by the report, the iPhone XI, iPhone XI Max and iPhone XR’s successor will also be priced at $999, $1099, $749 respectively.
A big reason for this can be the fact that Apple has been losing iPhone revenue, and it has been speculated by a number of experts and research firms that the primary reason for it is the high pricing of the latest iPhone models. In India, which is a very important market for Apple, even the most affordable iPhone of the year – iPhone XR (review) – is priced over Rs 70,000.
Considering that a number of iPhone competitors are priced more reasonably, the exorbitant pricing hurt Apple’s revenue in 2018. However, in the United States, iPhone sales have remained unaffected in spite of the surge in pricing.
So probably Apple is keeping both the markets in mind while taking this call. It certainly does not want to decrease the prices of 2019 iPhones, but will naturally be reluctant to increase the cost even more. Some days back, the Cupertino-based technology giant also announced that it will be reducing the cost of iPhones in countries where they are priced exorbitantly.
Coming back to the report, it also said that iPhone XR successor will reportedly come with a dual rear camera setup, while iPhone XI and iPhone XI Max are said to sport triple rear cameras. Although the 2019 iPhone models are expected to retain the display notch, the one on iPhone XR’s successor will be wider than the one on iPhone XI Max. all the three models will reportedly feature a new coating that is said to enhance the grip and improve their scratch resistance.

Also, there is a fingerprint scanner at the back. The mBack physical key that was incorporated in earlier phones has been discarded with. We are yet to hear more about this device. We are not sure if the Meizu Note 9 will have pressure-sensitive buttons or not. But by the looks of it, it might just have them, similar to what we had seen on the HTC USqueeze smartphone.
Back in June, reports talking about a smartphone where the mBack physical key is to be replaced by a fingerprint sensor. This particular smartphone was known as the Meizu 16. The smartphone comes in two variants. The first one is powered by Snapdragon 710, and the other with Snapdragon 845.
