The most expected smartphone from Apple, which is the iPhone 12 is planned to be released Q4 of 2020. However, this year due to global pandemic COVID-19, we can expect the launch to be delayed for a few months. But as always, we are receiving a lot of leak news on the upcoming iPhone 12 series. However, this time, we have more clarity on the iPhone 12 series.

This information is confirmed by Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC). Before this, we know that Apple will be unveiling three new iPhones. But as per DSCC report published today shows that Apple is planning to launch 4 new models of iPhone 12. Can you guess what’s the name of the fourth model?

iPhone 12 Pro Max: A larger screen from Samsung Display

For the iPhone 12 Pro Max wise, previously we know that Apple will be unveiling a larger screen iPhone. The latest news we have is the iPhone 12 Pro Max will be featuring a 6.68-inch flexible OLED display. This display will be supplied by Samsung Display. It will have a screen resolution of 2778 x 1284 pixels.

For the camera wise, as we predicted it will have an array of three cameras. From the report, it looks like iPhone 12 Pro Max will have a 64MP main camera. The other details for the rest of the cameras do not reveal yet. Besides that, as shown in the EverythingApplePro video, the iPhone 12 Pro Max comes with the LiDAR scanner. At this moment, only the 2020 iPad Pro uses the LiDAR scanner. The LiDAR scanner is mainly used for augmented reality purpose. Over at the front, it comes with the 12MP front-facing camera.

Under the hood, the iPhone 12 Pro Max runs with the new Apple A14 Bionic chip. It also rumoured that it will be equipped with a 6GB of RAM. You can also expect the iPhone 12 series to use the Sub 6GHz, mmWave 5G technology. For the internal storage, the report shows that the iPhone 12 Pro comes in three storage options which are 128GB, 256GB and 512GB.

iPhone 12 Pro: An iPhone with 120Hz display

Talking about the iPhone 12 Pro, it features a 6.1-inch OLED display which is being supplied by Samsung Display too. It will have a screen resolution of 2532 x 1170 pixels. Our previous rumour shows that Apple indeed will be supporting 120Hz display. However, it is reported that Apple will not be supporting its LTPO technology.

Similar to the iPhone 12 Pro Max, it will be using the latest Apple A14 Bionic chip. For the storage wise, you can expect the iPhone 12 Pro also to come with 128GB, 256GB and 512GB storage options. This mode of the iPhone 12 Pro also will have a triple camera setup with the LiDAR scanner. The only difference between the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max is the panel size. The rest are similar to the iPhone 12 Pro Max.

iPhone 12: The smallest iPhone

Obviously, iPhone 12 is the base model in the iPhone 12 series smartphone. The iPhone 12 will be replacing the current iPhone 11. According to DSCC, the iPhone 12 will be featuring a 5.4-inch OLED display. Again Samsung Display will be supplying this OLED display. It is rumoured that it will have a screen resolution of 2340 x 1080 pixels.

At the camera department, you can expect it to have a dual camera setup similar to the current iPhone 11. However, it will be having the 64MP image sensor as the main camera. Over the front, Apple still continues with the 12MP front selfie camera.

Powering the iPhone 12 is the latest Apple’s A14 Bionic chip. Instead of having a 6GB RAM, the iPhone 12 will have 4GB of RAM only. The iPhone 12 will come in only two storage options which are 128GB and 256GB only. Nevertheless, iPhone 12 is still one of the most powerful smartphones you can purchase for a cheaper price.

iPhone 12 Max: The unexpected iPhone

The unexpected iPhone 12 is going to be the iPhone 12 Max. According to Phone Arena, there are chances of the iPhone 12 Max to replace the iPhone 11. But looking at the specs, we feel that iPhone 12 Max has slightly better specs than the iPhone 12. For that reason, we are saying iPhone 12 is the replacement for the iPhone 11. It will be featuring a 6.1-inch OLED display which is rumoured to be supplied by BOE and LG Display. The iPhone 12 Max comes with the screen resolution of 2532 x 1170 pixels.

For the camera wise, it will have an array of two cameras similar to the iPhone 12. Both the back cameras and front cameras will have a 64MP main camera and 12MP front selfie camera respectively.

Under the hood, Apple still continues the same chipset, RAM and storage options. The main difference between the iPhone 12 is the screen resolution and the panel supplier. Rest is still similar to the iPhone 12. At the same, time when we compared with the iPhone 12 Pro, we can say both the iPhone 12 Max and iPhone 12 Pro comes with similar panel size and screen resolution.

iPhone 12 series smartphone price

For the pricing wise, Apple is planning to keep the price of the iPhone 12 at $649. Comparing it to the current iPhone 11, the iPhone 12 is slightly cheaper than expected. The iPhone 12 Max price will be starting from $749. From the table below, we can say that both the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Max is the affordable iPhone 12 series smartphones.

When it comes to high-end iPhones, surely you can expect the price to be much expensive as we expect. The iPhone 12 Pro price will be starting from $999. Whereas for the iPhone 12 Pro Max, Apple might be deciding to increase the price to $1099. That’s $100 increased compared to the iPhone 12 Pro.

In conclusion, the iPhone 12 series is planned to be released around September 2020. However, due to the global pandemic COVID-19, Apple might be delaying the launch of the iPhone 12 series smartphone up until October 2020. According to DSCC, the panel production for the iPhone 12 series will be starting at the end of July 2020. Usually, these panels productions should begin on June. Do note that, these above details which we mentioned from the beginning of this post is not 100% confirmed news. There could be changes on the actual iPhone 12 series smartphones.

Since the global pandemic COVID-19, many countries have initiated a lockdown. This means people were not allowed to go out of their houses. Companies like Apple had to close their stores worldwide to reduce the spread of COVID-19. It has been more than a month since Apple closes its stores worldwide. As we mentioned previously, Apple says that it will be reopening a few of its stores in the United States.

Well, today, Apple’s SVP of Retail and People, Deirdre O’Brien have updated us on the latest information regarding the Apple Stores worldwide. This news has been posted on the Apple website. According to him, Apple is really cautious when it comes to health. That’s the reason during this pandemic COVID-19, Apple has source more than 30 million masks and 10 million custom‑built face shields for doctors and nurses. On top of that, Apple has also partnered with Google to develop a solution for the COVID-19.

Apple is the first to close its stores in China during COVID-19

He also added that, Apple was one of the first stores in China to apply social distancing in its store so that it can reduce the spread of the virus. And now, Apple will be slowly reopening its stores worldwide by applying the rules which it applied in China. Until now, Apple has already opened almost 100 of its stores worldwide. As for now, Apple has a total of 512 Apple Stores worldwide. Since now it is following the Standard of Operating Procedure (SOP) we soon may see more Apple Stores being opened worldwide.

As for the people in the United States, you can start to go to the Apple Stores in the coming weeks. Currently, Apple has planned to open at least 25 Apple Stores in the United States. Whereas globally, Apple is planning to open 12 of its stores in Canada and 10 in Italy. Since in China and South Korea, the COVID-19 cases have been solved, Apple has finally opened its stores in these countries too.

Expect these changes when you walk-in into the Apple Store

Apple feels that it need to be responsible for the health of its visitors. Due to that, soon once more stores have been opened you can start to see a lot of changes in the Apple Stores. First of all, you can see Apple Stores employees will be checking your body temperature before you walk-in to the Apple Stores. At the same time, they will be checking whether are you wearing a mask. In case you forget to bring your mask along, don’t worry because the employees will be providing you with the facemask.

Furthermore, Apple will be applying social distancing too. This means Apple will not be allowing many people to walk-in into the Apple Stores. Most importantly, the Apple Store employees will be requiring you to answer questions if you have either fever or cough. Besides that, you can also see that, Apple will be conducting enhanced deep cleanings that place special emphasis on all surfaces, display products, and highly trafficked areas.

Find which Apple Store is open during COVID-19 in the US

In case if you have ordered Apple products, Apple will be glad to ship it to your doorsteps so you don’t have to leave your house. Unless if you want to pick it up the product at the Apple Store itself, you can walk-in directly. Just make sure you maintain the social distancing rules. You can easily check whether the Apple Stores at your region has been opened or not. You can do it by using the Find a Store search tool.

In conclusion, even though Apple readies to open its stores in the United States, it will be looking at each and every data. For example local cases, near and long‑term trends, and guidance from national and local health officials. Even after opening the Apple Stores, Apple feels that the COVID-19 cases are increasing, Apple immediately will take action to close its stores again.

Nowadays, we used to express our comments by using GIF. We feel that it is more fun to use it. If you notice either in Facebook-owned WhatsApp app or in the Facebook app itself, you have the option to add GIF for your comments. Even in the Messenger also you can add the GIF using the GIPHY. GIPHY is one of the most popular GIF sharing websites and now Facebook is acquiring it for a whopping $400 million (RM1.7B).

This news was first reported by Axios on their website. It seems Facebook is planning to acquire the world’s famous GIF-making website and integrate it into the Facebook-owned Instagram app. We can assure you also that if Facebook acquires GIPHY then, even WhatsApp and the Facebook app also GIPHY will be integrated to it.

As for now, WhatsApp is using the GIF library from Tenor. For Messenger wise, you can select the GIPHY plugin for now to use it. According to VP of product for Instagram, Vishal Shah says that there wouldn’t be any changes on the website of GIPHY. You can still access it and make your own GIF or share GIFs with your friends. The only changes in Instagram would be, soon you can send GIF in Instagram Stories and Instagram Direct Messages too.

According to Facebook, one of the main reason for it to integrating the GIPHY API to Instagram mainly is because GIPHY has at least 25% of its traffic sources directly from Instagram itself. The remaining 25% is from other Facebook apps. And the rest 50% are from different sources such as Twitter or Reddit. Many people are using GIF nowadays. Even when we need to post an Instagram Stories, we mostly use a GIF to give more emotions in the Instagram Stories.

In conclusion, sooner, you can expect a major update for the Instagram app. This deal is 100% confirmed now and Facebook has already released its official statement regarding this acquisition.

Sony launches world’s first AI image sensor
Reading Time: 3 minutes read

When it comes to smartphone, the main camera sensors we can see smartphones been using is either from Samsung or Sony. Except for Huawei, it uses their camera sensors from Leica. Up until now, there aren’t any camera sensors which comes with Artificial Intelligence (AI). Well, Sony launches the world’s first AI image sensor.

The AI image sensor comes in two models which are IMX500 and IMX501. It is called the Intelligent Vision Sensor. Both of these models comes in 12.3-megapixel sensor. What makes it special is the Intelligent Vision Sensors which comes with the AI chip on board. If you compared the current image sensors from Samsung or Leica, they do the AI image processing through the smartphone chipset only.

But for the Sony Intelligent Vision sensor, the AI processing is being done in the chip itself. This causes the time taken to do the image processing is faster compared to the current situation. Comparing with other camera sensors they have to send the data to the cloud. This where it does the AI processing.

Sony Intelligent Vision Sensor Use Cases

Sony has given a brief explanation regarding its latest image sensor use cases. According to Sony, its latest image sensor able to track an object in real-time with its AI chip on board. One of the use cases is the Amazon cashier-less Go as one of the potential application. The current Amazon cashier-less Go is having hundreds of camera in order to track its shoppers. If Amazon uses the Intelligent Vision Sensors, then they wouldn’t need hundreds of camera. Instead, they can use Sony AI image sensors to track the shoppers and charge them based on the items they have taken from the shelves.

Another use case for this AI image sensor would be detecting where a person is wearing a mask. For this current COVID-19 pandemic, Sony can immediately roll out its camera sensors to multiple locations. With its powerful AI chip, it can allow the camera to send either “yes” or “no” to the authorities. Apart from that, in a shopping mall, these AI image sensor can be useful to know the customer behaviours by using heat mapping. With heat mapping, the shopping mall management can know which shops the customers like to visit.

World’s first AI image sensor on a smartphone

According Sony VP of Business and Innovation, Mark Hanson, Sony has been the smartphone market for a quite some time. It has more than 60 percent market share up until now. He also added that Apple’s iPhone 11 Pro uses the image sensor from Sony. Sony has shipped 1.6 billion sensors for smartphones. With this new AI image sensor, we can expect Apple to be one of the first smartphone makers to use the latest AI image sensor from Sony.

In conclusion, the Sony Intelligent Visions Sensors could be really useful for both end users and also business users. According to Sony, the IMX501 sample units could be shipped to the smartphone makers some time around June 2020. We can’t wait to see how smartphone makers are going to use the world’s first AI image sensor on their products.

Facebook launches its own avatar in the United States
Reading Time: 2 minutes read

Bitmoji is famously known as Bitstrips back in 2012, where we can see many people creating their own comic strip on their Facebook. Now, on Facebook, we have the Stickers which widely many people are using it when they post a comment on a post. Later in 2014, Bitstrips is renamed to Bitmoji and that’s when it has been one of the most downloaded apps on Facebook. Just today, Facebook launches the Bitmoji-like avatars in the United States.

Before the United States, Facebook first launches its own Avatar in Europe. Since Bitmoji has been acquired by Snapchat, Facebook couldn’t use Bitmoji technology on its platform. So that’s the reason Facebook developed its own Bitmoji-like avatar. At first, we were expecting something like Memoji on the Apple iOS ecosystem. Unfortunately, the Avatar is still a sticker similar to Bitmoji. Only that you can customize it thoroughly similar to Apple’s Memoji.

Similar to Bitmoji, people in the United States and Europe can use the Facebook Avatars in Stories. Besides that, Facebook also allows you to use its Avatars to comment on a post and obviously in the Facebook Messenger too. Facebook is trying to compete with Snapchat. Even back when Facebook introduces Stories, Snapchat was the first tech company to introduce the Stories feature. And now, Snapchat even launches its own Bitmoji TV where the Bitmoji characters plays a role in the cartoons.

How to create your Facebook Avatar?

If both are similar then people rather will be using Snapchat Bitmoji. That’s the reason Facebook makes the Avatars different than the Snapchat Bitmoji. Facebook will allow you to create your own avatar easily. All you need to do is click on the comment where you can insert the stickers. And from there you should be able to view the new button “Create Your Avatar”.

Then you can easily customize your avatar to your favourite choice. You can even set your hair colour or hairstyle with Facebook Avatars. However, in Bitmoji you can’t really customize it thoroughly. You can also customize the outfit for your avatar similarly to Apple’s Memoji feature.

In conclusion, there isn’t any confirmation yet whether Facebook will be rolling out Facebook Avatars to other countries. We will give it a try once it is available in Malaysia though. The Facebook Avatars is now available for both iOS and Android devices.

Leak claims iPhone 12 to feature 120Hz ProMotion display
Reading Time: 3 minutes read

Apple’s iPhone 12 is the next big thing, guys! Trust me if this phone launches according to the leaks, surely you will be seeing an unboxing and review video on our TMQ tech channel. The latest leak we have for you guys is the upcoming iPhone 12 will be featuring the 120Hz ProMotion display.

Thanks to both EverythingApplePro and Max Weinbach for sharing us the news for the iPhone 12 series. Regarding the ProMotion display, this is the exact technology where the latest 2020 iPad Pro has. And now, Apple will be bringing this latest technology to the iPhone 12 series. According to EverythingApplePro, the ProMotion display will only be available on the both the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max.

The latest OnePlus 8 Pro features the exact 120Hz refresh rate display. With the 120Hz display, you can have a seamless swipe and scroll. But it looks like for Apple it is doing something different. The Pro models iPhone will be supporting both 120Hz and 60Hz, where it will switch by itself depending on the content you are viewing. The moment, when you switch to a 120Hz display, on any smartphone the battery of the phone will be draining quickly. That’s the purpose Apple comes with this kind of feature for the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max.

Apart from that, as expected Apple will also be increasing the battery size for the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. The main reason could be the 120Hz ProMotion display. By watching the video from EverythingApplePro, it looks like Apple has decided to increase the iPhone 12 Pro’s battery size to 4,400mAh. Besides that, from the rendered images, we can see the shape of the battery which looks like a ‘L’ shape.

Apple will be using the A14 Bionic chip for the iPhone 12 series phones. This is something we can easily predict most of the time. With the upcoming A14 Bionic chip, Apple might be increasing the RAM size on the both Pro models. According to the leak, we can expect a huge jump from 4GB to 6GB. The A14 bionic chipset could also be supporting 5G network. Previously, there were rumours that Apple 5G iPhone will be delayed up to 2021. But now it seems like things are changing now.

The most recent update we have is on the Face ID. As we knew previously, the iPhone 12 models will be having a smaller notch. And now, Max Weinbach says that the Face ID sensor is becoming smaller now. At the same time, there will be a wider viewing angle on the Face ID sensor. This means you can easily unlock the iPhone 12 without even moving your face towards the display. Even when you are sitting the sensor is able to track your face because of the wide-angle viewing feature in the Face ID sensor. MacRumors reported that the new Face ID sensor also might be able to automatically adjust the orientation. This means, even when you are sleeping you can easily unlock your phone sideways.

For the cameras wise, it’s confirmed that LiDAR scanner will be added for the iPhone 12 Pro models. According to EverythingApplePro, previously Apple was testing the 64MP camera sensor for the iPhone 12 series smartphone. However, it seems like the engineers aren’t satisfied with the dual pixel autofocus. So for this upcoming iPhone 12, we still got to stick with the 12MP camera sensors.

Another leak news we have is there is going to be a new colour option. This was confirmed by Jon Prosser. Apple will be replacing the Midnight Green with the Navy Blue, which you can see from the EverythingApplePro iPhone 12 rendered video. If Apple really launches the Navy Blue, surely that is going to be a total hit.

In conclusion, here you have it the overall rumours for the iPhone 12 series. We are mainly excited about the design of the iPhone 12 and also the camera sensors. Let us know your thought on the iPhone 12 models.
