Xiaomi’s Mi Mix Alpha is the world’s best concept phone
Reading Time: 3 minutes read

Apart from the Mi 9 Pro 5G and Mi Full Screen TV Pro, Xiaomi also unveils Mi Mix Alpha which is the world’s best concept smartphone. When we say the world’s best, we meant it. Mi Mix Alpha is a result of Xiaomi’s bold imagination for the future of smartphones in the 5G era. Here are the top features of the Mi Mix Alpha.

1. World’s first Surround Display

From the heading above itself, you should have an idea of how does this phone look like. First of all, with a single panel, the phone is designed. This is the word’s first smartphone to have the highest screen-to-body ratio of more than 180.6%. The phone lights up from the front to the side until the back. That’s is almost the entire display. Here are a few photos of the Mi Mix Alpha.

Not to forget, back in 2016, Xiaomi was the first smartphone maker who introduces Full Screen Display smartphone concept to the smartphone market. Now, 99% of the current smartphone features the Full Screen Display. Even Samsung is one of the smartphone makers who is following the same concept as Xiaomi. By looking at the trend previously, we can guarantee you that Mi Mix Alpha Surround Display could be the future of display in a smartphone in the next few years.

Since the Mi Mix Alpha has a complete bending display, the layers such as display layer, touch panel and protection layers are laminated one-by-one. The reason is to achieve high curvature Surround Display design where the internal stress could be released layer by layer. On top of that, Xiaomi also uses a very strong protective layer to protect the screen from breaking.

If you notice in the pictures above, there are almost no bezels for the Mi Mix Alpha. The bezels only exist at the top and bottom which makes Xiaomi removes the physical button on both sides. With this Xiaomi uses haptic feedback to simulate the touch of real buttons.

2. World’s first 108MP camera

Besides the world’s first Surround Display, Mi Mix Alpha also features the world’s first 108MP camera which has the highest resolution, highest pixel count, and the largest sensor exist in any of the smartphone ever. This largest camera sensor is being manufactured by Samsung. Even before Xiaomi unveils the Mi Mix Alpha itself, there was a rumour Xiaomi next smartphone to feature a 108MP camera lens. This is the next generation camera in the era of smartphone photography.

The Mi Mix Alpha features a triple camera setup where the main camera is a 108MP camera sensor with a 1/1.33-inch large sensor. That is almost 389% larger than the current 48MP camera lens. With the 108MP image sensor, Mi Mix Alpha can capture 108MP photos with a resolution of 12032 x 9024 pixels. Moreover, it also supports four-in-one Super Pixel which can produce large 1.6ÎĽm pixel under a low-light situation.

The other camera lenses are the 20MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 12MP telephoto lens. Using the 20MP ultra-wide-angle camera, you can capture 1.5cm super macro photos. Whereas the 12MP telephoto lens supports 2X optical zoom and Dual PD focus.

3. World’s luxurious titanium smartphone

The bezels of the Mi Mix Alpha which are at the top and bottom are built using aerospace-grade titanium alloy. Honestly, personally we haven’t seen any smartphone in the world is built using titanium alloy. According to Xiaomi, this alloy is three times stronger than stainless steel. Despite being built by stainless steel, it weighs very less than expected. In addition to that, the camera lenses are protected with a single piece of sapphire glass, which is embedded in the ceramic.

You can find all the technical specification of the Xiaomi Mi Mix Alpha by clicking the button below.

Information such as passport details, home addresses, and phone numbers has been leaked on the Internet. A week after, Malindo has provided its customers with its findings over the incident.

From its findings, Malindo says the data exposure has been contained. According to the independent security firm which Malindo hires, confirms two ex-employees of its e-commerce services provider GoQuo (M) Sdn Bhd are the main culprit. These employees are the development team from India. They had accessed to Malindo Air cloud server and stole the personal data of its passengers.

Malindo has reported it to both its counterparts in Malaysia and India. Now, Malindo Air is working closely with the relevant agencies including the Malaysian Personal Data Protection Commissioners and the National Cyber Security Agency (NACSA) as well as their counterparts overseas.

At this moment, Malindo also confirms none of its passenger payment details has been compromised.

iPhone 11 “world’s toughest glass” is not what it seems
Reading Time: < 1 minute read

Last week, Apple unveils three models of the iPhone 11 which are iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max. During the event, Apple says this is the most durable smartphone ever. This is because Apple uses the world’s toughest glass for the iPhone 11. It pretty seems convincing even in the video drop test by Apple. However, a real drop test video will prove how durable the iPhone 11 is.

Today, we have the proof that iPhone 11 “world’s toughest glass” is not that tough at it seems. When in the morning we watch the video from YouTuber EverythingApplePro, we know this glass is easily breakable. You can watch the video below. Make sure, you make your heart stronger before watching it.

When we start watching the video, the iPhone 11 did not broke until the shoulder height. It was very convincing at first actually. But then when he dropped the iPhone from above the ladder which is around 10-feet, the both the back and front glass shattered. Despite that, the iPhone is still usable without any issues. That’s a plus point for Apple.

No matter how durable Apple says the iPhone 11 glass is, it still breaks. But we have to thank Apple for making such a durable phone where it took more drops for it to drop. If you notice the previous iPhone it got shatters easily when it drops from the shoulder height. Kudos Apple!

Finally, our advice to you all would be since you have spent a few thousand dollars for the iPhone why not consider getting a durable smartphone case. Checkout dBrand Grip case for iPhone 11. Personally we would say this is a super durable smartphone case we have ever seen for a smartphone.

Reading Time: 2 minutes read

After many rumours, Google is finally ready to unveil Google Pixel 4 smartphone. Google has officially sent out media invites for its hardware event which will happen on October 15 at New York City. Since Google says hardware event, we are guessing Google could possible announcing its final product launch of the year which are Pixel 4, Pixel 4 XL, Pixelbook 2 and also Google Home speakers.

By looking at the media invitation below, there is a tagline which says “Come see a few new things Made by Google.”. This confirms that Google will be announcing multiple products rather than one product.

A few of Google Pixel 4 upcoming features

Back in June, Google confirms Pixel 4 work in progress by uploading a video regarding Pixel 4 on YouTube. Other than that, from the video below also Google confirms a new feature which is Google’s own Face ID is coming to the Google Pixel 4 smartphone. The difference between the current iPhone’s Face ID and Google upcoming Face ID is, Google’s new feature can unlock your phone by looking at it. However, in iPhone you need to swipe to enter to your home screen after unlocking.

The other feature Google will be introducing is the hand gesture feature. After a few years of research, Google is finally using Project Soli technology for the hand gesture feature. This was introduced by Google back in 2016 during its Google I/O event. With Google Pixel 4, you can use your hand gesture to move between apps and browsers. There are more features which Google will be announcing during the hardware event.

Besides that, last week we also have received a few photos of the working Google Pixel 4 smartphone from TheVerge. Now, we know some of the specs of the Google Pixel 4 before Google announces officially on October 15. During the last year hardware event, Google announces Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel Slate, Google Nest hub and Chromecast streaming device. We are assuming Google, could be announcing devices in the same order except for the Pixel Slate and Google Nest Hub.

In conclusion, once Google announces the official Google Pixel 4 and Google Pixel 4 XL, we will update you all on the features and technical specifications. So, stay tuned for further updates from us.
