  • Redmi Turbo 3: GM Reveals Reasons for Price Above $300

    Redmi Turbo 3: GM Reveals Reasons for Price Above $300

    Xiaomi subsidiary Redmi will unveil the Redmi Turbo 3 on April 10, positioning itself as a performance-oriented midrange offering with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset support.

    Redmi Turbo 3 Pricing

    Contrary to expectations for an ultra-budget Redmi device price point, General Manager Wang Teng recently indicated in a Weibo post that Redmi’s Turbo 3 will likely exceed 2000 Yuan (roughly $290 USD). He attributes this change in strategy mainly due to Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Series Processors being one of the costliest components found within.

    Understanding The Pricing Strategy

    Teng notes that even previous Snapdragon 8 series chips, including last year’s Gen 2 models, start at an approximate minimum price of 2300 yuan currently; hence it seems implausible that Redmi Turbo 3 will cost less than 2000 yuan.

    Redmi Turbo 3 Specifications

    Redmi Turbo 3 offers an elegant design featuring gently rounded corners, metal framing, and prominent camera cutouts on its rear side. Measuring only 7.8mm thin and weighing just 179g, its AMOLED display boasts 1.5K resolution with minimal bezels; powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset for optimal performance; available variants will boast up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage capacities.

    Rage Engine 3.0 stands out in performance benchmarks like AnTuTu and prioritizes sustainable gaming capabilities through efficient cooling mechanisms and software optimization with its revolutionary Rage Engine v3.

    Battery capacity remains unclear, though an expected 5000mAh capacity with 90W fast charging is expected. Camera details remain elusive; speculations based on possible rebranded models (Poco F6) suggest there could be one primary 50MP sensor, an 8MP ultrawide lens and two 2MP macro lenses.

  • Top Reasons Why Apple Added Capture Button to iPhone 16

    Top Reasons Why Apple Added Capture Button to iPhone 16

    With Apple’s recent implementation of an action button on iPhone 15, there have been speculations regarding their inclusion of another physical button known as Capture Button for camera use into future iPhone 16 series handsets. Recent images showing iPhone 16 dummy units confirm this possibility while Yanko Design utilized them to craft detailed renderings that provide insight into why they incorporated Capture Button functionality.

    IPhone 16 Lineup: Unveil The Capture Button

    Apple’s newly revealed iPhone 16 lineup dummy units display the presence of a dedicated Capture Button, marking an unexpected shift away from speculation regarding buttonless design towards one with more buttons-oriented aesthetic. Apple has previously attempted to move towards portless designs but these changes appear contrary to this goal; no other Android phone currently boasts such an innovation in terms of camera button accessibility.

    Exploration Of The Capture Button’s Functions

    Reports indicate two potential motivations behind Apple’s addition of the Capture Button to their new iPhone 16 series models: (1) creating greater differentiation among models by offering unique features to set them apart and (2) streamlining user interactions with camera functionality by offering more streamlined moments capture experiences.

    Yanko Design’s iPhone 16 rendering illustrates its benefits with regard to a dedicated camera button, promising faster access and easier use of camera functions; although others contend existing buttons could have accommodated them. As smartphones advance and become increasingly complicated for those unfamiliar with advanced features.

    Yanko Design suggests an additional reason for Apple’s inclusion of a Capture Button; that they might be emphasizing photography within their ecosystem. With a growing emphasis on "Spatial computing" through wearable headsets and related wearable tech devices like Google Glasses and Hololens headsets, iPhone may evolve into dedicated photography device – especially considering rumors suggest they’ve developed an affordable headset specifically to promote spatial computing experiences; making the iPhone an integral player within photography world.
