Apple Will Launch 5G iPhone Models With Qualcomm Chipset In 2020

A new report came this month about Apple 5G iPhone models that will be launching in 2020. It is revealed that Apple could miss the rumored 2020 deadline launching on its 5G iPhones. It is said that Apple could have some issues with their 5G modems because of its ongoing litigation with Qualcomm. In this case, Qualcomm is the company that will supply Apple with the chipsets for the upcoming 5G smartphones.

We also have good news regarding those reports. Apple can still produce their 5G devices for the 2020 timeline. A new report from Nikkei Asian Review is stating that Apple and Qualcomm had stopped this disagreement and settle to a new partnership. So that means that Apple will launch their 5G iPhones with Qualcomm chipsets and most probably they will arrive in 2020 as they previously reported.

5G iPhone models would come out in 2020 with Qualcomm chipset

However, in this previous report, it was said that Apple could obtain chipsets from Intel or Samsung. Even Huawei was the one to offer their help and sell their tech to Apple. Huawei has been making its own chipsets for a time, they are making it for their own devices, but now they are making this offer. The idea had come from the fact that Apple and Qualcomm are in disagreements, and on Intel, they can’t relay, so maybe that was the motive behind Huawei’s offer.

Moreover, the interesting fact is that Apple did not take Huawei offer, and they are going to produce the 5G iPhones on their own terms, in the partnership with Qualcomm. This fact could have good results, thinking that Apple is waiting one year to launch its 5G iPhone, like they always did when they prepared for some great delivery. See the case of the LTE network where the company had waited for a while until they adopted the tech and resolved the problems.

PlayStation 5 Technical Specs Revealed by Mark Cerny From Sony

We have some new information from Sony, some little teasers about the next-generation console. Those details come from Mark Cerny, the lead system architect of PlayStation 4, which reveals some details about the new coming console, the PlayStation 5.

The name of the future console isn’t yet confirmed. Cerny gives valuable information about the next-gen PlayStation. The fact that is based on PS4 architecture that it’s backward compatible and that it’s not coming only in digital format device, it will have as well physical disc.

Cerny says that the transition from PS4 to PS5 is a gentle one, numerous games will be released for both consoles, and that PlayStation 5 will be an iteration of its previous model, not very different like it happened to the PS3 and its predecessor.

PlayStation 5 technical specs

PlayStation 5 will have an AMD chip with a CPU based on the third-generation Ryzen, with eight cores of seven-nanometer Zen 2 microchip, and will support 8K resolution.

Moreover, the graphics will be driven by a custom version of Radeon’s Navi line, and it can support ray tracing. The audio will be the best improvements on the new device. With the AMD chip, they can enable 3D sound for a better immersing of the player. The hard drive, on the other hand, will probably be a solid-state drive, towards the other equivalents in current consoles are slower. We know that an SSD is found in laptops now, but Sony wants to bring it and use it on the new PlayStation, and it will be specialized for the hardware.

However, this shared architecture between the two models will create a smooth path for games being developed on one of them, and later to appear on the other one. Other more information wasn’t given; it is still unclear when PS5 will be revealed and when they will launch it since Sony hadn’t participated to E3 this year.

iOS 12 Jailbreak Is Having Problems Defeating Apple’s iOS 12.2

Having an iPhone has a messy part when you want to liberate your device by jailbreaking it. The problem is that Apple has done its best with the new iOS12.2 version that even the iOS Jailbreak 12 can’t go through the latest update. If you want to be free from Apple’s prison, Jailbreak’s developers are warning you to not update to the new iOS 12.2.

Moreover, it looks that from now it will be hard to bypass Apple’s security, even with the recent iOS Jailbreak 12 Unc0ver App. The developer, pwn20wnd is saying that iOS Jailbreak 12 can be the last working version for iPhone user. The problem is what will happen in the long term? We don’t know if Jailbreak will continue to move forward and try to update and improve its application, or if the users will remain stuck in the iOS 12.2. We don’t know if Apple will continue to improve their security or if they finished for now with the last update. On the other hand, time will prove that even the best protection will remain the best, because if at this moment iOS Jailbreak 12 Unc0ver is the best way to unlock some of Apple’s devices, for sure there may come someone that is going to make an application more advanced.

Also, the developer of iOS Jailbreak 12 Unc0ver is saying that they are working for a fix in the case of the users that can’t benefit from the app. He said that at this moment he’s waiting for an update on Cydia Substrate for arm64e from Saurik. The Unc0ver v3.0.0 is still in beta because pwn20wnd wants to implement full-fledged A12-A12X support before it’s releasing it. His message for users is to have patience, and good things will come for those who wait.

Viber 10.5.0.5 Update Available to Download with the Dark Mode and Enhanced Group Voice Calls

One of the latest trends in the app industry is the Dark Mode. This mode has already been introduced by all the most popular apps such as YouTube and Facebook for example. There are many benefits to having a Dark Mode but the most important one is the fact that it makes the app’s UI (user interface) look sleek. Viber is one of the apps that loves to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to new features and therefore, the latest update for Viber brings the much-anticipated Dark Mode alongside many other software changes.

Viber Gets Dark Mode

The latest update for Viber sports the 10.5.0.5 version number and it has been recently released. This is a high-priority update for all Viber users because it doesn’t just introduce the cool looking Dark Mode, but it also brings a couple of important enhancements to group voice calls. Nonetheless, the Dark Mode is now available in the Settings panel and all Viber users can enable it if they like how it looks.

What’s great about the Dark Mode is that it doesn’t just look cool, but it also lowers the overall amount of battery power that Viber uses on average. To make things even better, the Dark Mode is also perfect for people who work late night shifts and hate it when the brightness of their smartphone is temporarily blinding them.

Enhanced Group Voice Calls

As previously noted, Viber’s latest update also introduces a couple of software tweaks that enhance the performances of group voice calls. The first change that Viber users are going to notice is that the app now supports up to five participants in group voice calls. This is a big change and it makes it easier for Viber users to share information with their friends and family members.

Clash Royale Version 2.7.0: Massive Changes and New Features in The April Update

The latest update from Clash Royale was quite massive. Clash Royale Version 2.7.0 was just released this week, and it introduced many changes and a lot of content. Let’s break down the release notes below.

Trophy Road in Clash Royale – the New 1v1 Clash Royale Reward System

The Clash Royale team introduced a new reward system in the game called Trophy Road. It will follow your progress and give you rewards as you win more trophies, also allowing you to speed the progress.

At the end of the League Season, you can collect the rewards again, as the Trophy Road progress will reset. The bad news here is that you won’t get a League Chest because the rewards are won as you progress, and not at the end.

Trophy road will give rewards such as gems, gold, chests, cards, trade tokens, and emotes, and the higher your Trophy count, the better rewards you will get.

Trophy Gate is a new feature that will work as a safety net when you reach a new arena and lose some games. You will remain in the same arena, and for example, if you hit 4,000 Trophies, you won’t drop under the Legendary Arena’s Trophy Gate. You will drop through the rankings though.

Progressing is even faster with Chest Speed Up Boosts which you receive as you reach a new arena. It will unlock 24 hours of Chest Speed Up Boost to prepare for the current arena.

You can also look through the incoming rewards to know what’s coming.

Two new Leagues are available:

Royal Champion – 6,600 Trophies

Ultimate Champion – 7,000 Trophies

The New Card: Earthquake

This card costs 3 Elixir to cast. It is a Rare Spell that does damage over time.

Use it on buildings, as it deals damage to Crown Towers and 400% damage the rest of the buildings. You can also use it as an AoE attack to damage and slow troops on the ground. The spell will only work on ground units, as it only affects whatever stands on the ground.

New Prestige Levels

There are also new Prestige Levels for the following cards: Rocket, Goblin Hut, Knight, Balloon, Zappies, Skeleton Army, Barbarian Hut, Skeleton Barrel, Magic Archer.

The Event Tab

Check out all the events, such as Global Tournaments, Challenges, Limited Time Game Modes, Grand Challenges & Classic Challenges, in a new tab named ‘Event.’

Other Changes

Among the new features, we also got many changes to the UI, some tweaks and additional features which you can check out on the official Clash Royale website.
