As we speak, Huawei is having its annual Huawei developer conference in China today. It was rumoured Huawei will be announcing HongmengOS during its developer conference. Finally, the rumoured has been true as Huawei announces HongmengOS. However, the Consumer Business Group CEO Richard Yu surprises the audience by unveiling HarmonyOS.

According to him, HongmengOS and HarmonyOS is the same operating system. The only difference here is in China it will be called as HongmengOS whereas HarmonyOS will be called to the rest of the world. He also says that HarmonyOS is faster and safer than the current Android operating system.

At this moment, Huawei says this OS is primarily aimed for IoT products only instead of smartphones. However, if the United States government permanently bans Huawei from accessing to Google Android operating system, then Huawei will deploy HarmonyOS officially to the smartphones. In the meantime, Huawei will still be continuing to support the Android operating system for its smartphones.

In conclusion, Huawei is one of the best smartphones in the world. If the US government continue to bans Huawei, then you know what’s going to happen next. So Huawei future owners, don’t worry about the operating system. This is faster and safer.

Every quarter of the year, Opensignal shares its research report on the worldwide mobile network experience. Opensignal releases its new report on the topic of the smartphone, “How The Smartphone Affects Mobile Network Experience”. From the report, you can notice Opensignal did their research based on these three top smartphone brands which are Samsung, Huawei and Apple.

The main reason Opensignal picks these three major smartphones because Apple, Samsung and Huawei present in many countries. From the report, Opensignal clearly states that Samsung users tend to experience faster download speed than Apple or Huawei users. This includes Malaysia Samsung users are experiencing faster download speeds of 16Mbps. Both Apple and Huawei users, are experiencing download speed of 13Mbps and 15Mbps respectively.

Other than that, the chipset used in the smartphone affects network performance. For mid-range smartphones, the chipset used might not be as Samsung uses. Devices such as Apple uses Intel as their modem. There are many chipsets such as Qualcomm, Intel, HiSilicon, and Exynos. Samsung uses Exynos chipset which really allows its users to connect to wider frequency bands.

The tier of devices affects the network performance

Opensignal also did a grouping by tier between low-tier, mid-tier and high-tier devices. This device tiers also plays a major role in network performance. From the report, we can know that high-tier Samsung devices provide fastest download speeds globally of 26.6Mbps. Devices such as Apple high-tier devices able to provide a download speed of 25.1Mbps. All the high-tier devices use LTE Cat16 and above, whereas the low-tier and mid-tier device uses LTE Cat15 and below.

Comparing the LTE Cat16 smartphones with the rest of the world, high-tier devices in Malaysia able to reach the download speed of 19.9Mbps. Other mid-tier devices which use LTE Cat5 to Cat15 able to provide an average download speed of 13.8Mbps whereas for low-tier devices which uses LTE Cat4 and below could only lower download speed of 12.3Mbps.

In conclusion, the chipsets used in a smartphone really affects network performance as well. As Samsung will be introducing Galaxy Note 10 tomorrow, we can expect a greater download speed in Malaysia as it will be using Samsung’s new Exynos processor.

The 2021 iPhone will have an in-display fingerprint sensor

Reading Time: 2 minutes read

Back in 2017, Apple launches iPhone X which is Apple’s 10th generation iPhone. In the iPhone X, Apple removes the most significant security feature, Touch ID and replaces it with Face ID. Apple is the first smartphone maker to introduce facial recognition feature in the smartphone. However, now time changes as other smartphone makers to reintroduce the fingerprint scanner technology on their smartphone.

Apple 2021 iPhone will have both Face ID and Touch ID

According to Apple’s most noted industry analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo says Apple might be planning to reintroduce the Touch ID in the 2021 iPhones. The 2021 iPhones will be having the Touch ID with an in-display fingerprint sensor. There is no doubt Apple will be dropping Face ID facial recognition technology on the iPhones. The Chinese analyst says Apple will include both Facial ID and Touch ID technology in the 2021 iPhones.

Last year, Vivo is the first smartphone maker to introduce the in-display fingerprint sensor on a smartphone. The technology first appeared in Vivo X20 Plus UD. However, the world’s most valuable company has filed a patent on the in-display fingerprint technology back in 2017 itself. Until today, there isn’t any of Apple’s product incorporated with the in-display fingerprint sensor technology.

Ming-Chi Kuo also claims that Appl most likely will be using the ultrasonic fingerprint sensing solution which is similar to Qualcomm’s. Most of the times, Apple prefers to reinvent features rather than inventing newer features. We can expect Apple to reinvent the in-display fingerprint sensor technology. The analyst also noted that by introducing both the Face ID and the Touch ID makes hacker difficult to imitate both a person’s face and fingerprint.

In conclusion, in two years time, Apple could possibly introduce the first iPhone with an in-display fingerprint scanner. Although this improves the security level of a smartphone, technologies are still vulnerable to hackers. For now, let’s focus on what Apple has in store for the iPhone 11 which will be unveiled next month September.

Apart from the Unifi Air plan, Unifi also introduces Unifi Lite plan for its current Streamyx customers.
