For $120 Ulefone has introduced a cheap, secure smartphone Armor X12. The model costs only $120, although the characteristics are appropriate. [caption id="attachment_62668" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Ulefone Armor X12[/caption] Ulefone Armor X12 smartphone presented It's worth starting with the fact that the X12 is an almost complete copy of the X12 Pro. This is the same smartphone, only with different platforms and amounts of RAM. If the X12 Pro is based on the slow Helio G36 SoC, then the X12’s heart is the Helio A22, which is very primitive by modern standards. There is also only 3/32 GB of memory. [caption id="attachment_62670" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Ulefone Armor X12[/caption] Otherwise there are no differences. Armor X12 is equally compact for its category. It has a 5.45-inch IPS screen with HD+ resolution. At the same time, it cannot be said that the smartphone is very small in absolute terms since the additional protection still makes itself felt. As a result, the dimensions here are 157.2 x 76.8 x 14.3 mm with a weight of 257 g. However, this does not stop the manufacturer from saying that this is a smartphone for one-handed operation. The smartphone configuration also includes a 13-megapixel main camera and a 4860 mAh battery with weak 10-watt charging. In terms of protection, it is IP69K and MIL-STD-810H standard.

For $415 Sharp presented the Aquos sense8 smartphone, which, as is often the case with a Japanese company, is a rather interesting device. [caption id="attachment_62428" align="alignnone" width="780"] Sharp Aquos sense8[/caption] Firstly, it is compact. The new product has a 6.1-inch diagonal IGZO OLED screen with Full HD+ resolution and support for 90 Hz.

Some games are not yet fully optimized Early adopters of the iPhone 15 and bloggers continue to talk about the problems they are facing. This time we are talking about the fact that the new smartphone is not initially optimized with all games released in the App Store. One reviewer writes on Weibo: “The iPhone 15 is not as good for gaming as the iPhone 14. I tried a few games and they are not fully optimized yet. Avid gamers should wait and buy it later." [caption id="attachment_62171" align="aligncenter" width="780"] iPhone 15[/caption] The published video shows that in some games, the Dynamic Island cutout, which appeared in all iPhone 15 series smartphones, blocks part of the user interface and does not allow pressing buttons. According to JP Morgan Chase, iPhone 15 delivery times have improved significantly, but there are still shortages in the market.

The processor frequency was raised to 3.0 GHz, GPU – to 1.1 GHz Raspberry Pi 5 was presented last Thursday, and the result of overclocking the latest version of the single-board computer has already been published. As it turns out, you can squeeze an additional 25% performance out of the Broadcom BCM2712 SoC. [caption id="attachment_61784" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Raspberry Pi 5[/caption] It should be noted right away that the experiment was carried out with an optional cooling system called Active Cooler (price - only $5). It consists of a low-profile aluminum radiator and a small fan. Obviously, without its use, such a result would hardly have been achieved. [caption id="attachment_61785" align="aligncenter" width="619"] Raspberry Pi 5[/caption] Raspberry Pi 5 was overclocked a day after the announcement As a result of the experiment, the CPU frequency was raised by 600 MHz – up to 3.0 GHz. The frequency of the VideoCore VII GPU was increased by 300 MHz – up to 1.1 GHz. After this, the computer ran the Stressberry test for five minutes without any problems. In the stress test, the consumption was 10 W, the temperature was 69-74 ° C. In standby mode, consumption decreased to 3 W, temperature - to 46 ° C. [caption id="attachment_61786" align="aligncenter" width="723"] Raspberry Pi 5[/caption] The performance increase was recorded in the Sysbench application: the single-threaded test result was 3423 points, and the multi-threaded test was 13681 points. Both results are 25% higher than the regular version of Raspberry Pi 5 and almost twice as high as Raspberry Pi 4.

But in other conditions, the smartphone can heat up much more It seems that if the new iPhone 15 Pro overheats, then at least you shouldn’t worry about the temperature during charging. At a minimum, ChargerLAB tests showed that the iPhone 15 Pro Max does not heat up much during charging.  [caption id="attachment_61780" align="alignnone" width="780"] Nvidia video card[/caption] No, the iPhone 15 Pro Max does not overheat while charging. The maximum heating during the test, according to the source, was almost 39 degrees. Note that this is the case temperature. Such values ​​are reached approximately half an hour after the start of charging, and at the beginning of the process the temperatures, although slightly lower, are still close. But after an hour, when the power decreases, the smartphone becomes much colder (about 30 degrees).   https://youtu.be/QDhGdUSOarE Thus, there is no need to worry about heating when connected to a charger, although this does not change the fact that the phone can heat up in other modes. To the point that the smartphone's battery may swell.

Both smartphones were badly damaged We have already seen various crash tests of the new iPhone 15 Pro or 15 Pro Max, but finally, the authors of the PhoneBuff channel conducted their test. Let us remember that their tests are always carried out under the same conditions and using a robotic manipulator, which minimizes the element of chance.  [caption id="attachment_61768" align="aligncenter" width="780"] iPhone 15 Pro Max and Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra[/caption] In this case, the iPhone 15 Pro Max was compared with the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. You can see that both smartphones were damaged after the first fall on their backs, while the glass on the Apple flagship was damaged much more.  In this battle, the iPhone 15 Pro Max could not defeat the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. The second fall (at an angle) also turned out to be more severe for the new Apple product. It is quite possible that the titanium frame is to blame, which, due to its greater strength, does not absorb shock as much as a softer aluminum frame.   The falling of the screens also led to damage to the glass of both smartphones and here it can no longer be said that one survived the fall better, although the nature of the damage is different.  https://youtu.be/sxS9rUaKZFE?t=421 As a result, we can say that smartphones behave approximately the same when dropped. True, in reality, each fall is unique, so it is difficult to draw any conclusions from such a test. Is it possible to say for sure that a large and durable case is better than no case at all?

Questions remain about photographing the Moon with smartphones Mydrivers published a comparison of the latest flagship smartphones Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design and iPhone 15 Pro Max, which were released just a few days ago. They were compared when photographing the Moon. [caption id="attachment_61756" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Huawei Mate 60 RS and iPhone 15 Pro Max[/caption] Readers on Weibo believe that in terms of detail and clarity, the Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design takes the lead in this comparison. Some write that Huawei’s flagship has gone “far ahead.” Last January, Huawei received a patent for a “method and electronic equipment for photographing the Moon.” The patent summary shows that this method automatically recognizes the Moon in the preview interface and then enters a special mode. Autofocus allows you to display a clear image of the moon in the preview interface. Multiple images of the Moon are then collected at different exposure settings to create a final image that includes a clear, bright background and an equally clear Moon. Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design and iPhone 15 Pro Max compared when shooting the Moon According to Huawei, this method can capture a “crystal clear and beautiful moon in normal shooting mode by non-professional users.” There will always be questions about how smartphones take pictures of the Moon after the story of how the Galaxy S23 Ultra managed to take a beautiful photo while photographing a very highly compressed photo. You will find a large number of comparative photographs and videos taken on the Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design and iPhone 15 Pro Max in the following video. https://youtu.be/SEIu7EVbapk Readers in the comments agree that the Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design comes out on top in most scenarios.

With the release of the Galaxy S24 line, Samsung will launch a real attack on the clones Tireless insider Steve Hemmerstoffer, known under the nickname Onleaks, continues to publish renderings of one future Samsung flagship after another. So, this morning high-quality images of the Samsung Galaxy S24 appeared, and now its older brother, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus, is shown in large pictures. [caption id="attachment_61747" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus[/caption] This model will have a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED flat screen and a triple camera with three separate sensors. As in the case of the Galaxy S24, the only way to distinguish the Galaxy S24 Plus from the Galaxy S23 Plus is by the flash slightly moved down. [caption id="attachment_61748" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus[/caption] Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus was shown in high-quality renders. The dimensions of the Galaxy S24 Plus will be 158.5 x 75.9 x 7.75 mm. The side frame of the device will be flat, probably aluminum. The antenna of the UWB module will be connected to it. The premiere of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus line is expected in January 2024. Steve Hemmerstoffer previously released a ton of renders of the phones ahead of their release, and all of these leaks have since been confirmed. This happened with the Samsung Galaxy S21, Sony Xperia XZ4, Google Pixel 4 XL, and many others.

The glass will remain slightly rounded The Samsung Galaxy S24, as we have already seen today, will be practically no different in appearance from the Galaxy S23. Now it has become clear that the same applies to the Galaxy S24 Ultra.  The same insider Steve Hemmerstoffer, known under the pseudonym Onleaks, also shared renderings of the older model of Samsung’s new flagship line. And here, too, it is very difficult to detect any differences.  [caption id="attachment_61734" align="aligncenter" width="780"] Samsung[/caption] Is the entire era of Samsung coming to an end? In fact, they will be, but they will either not affect the appearance at all, or very slightly. For example, a titanium frame does not change the appearance of the smartphone. But you can see that the side edges will become even less curved than in the current generation, although they will not be completely flat.  In addition, judging by the images, the Galaxy S24 Ultra will have a flat-screen. The glass itself is curved very slightly, but the screen looks like it will be completely flat. If so, then the Galaxy S24 Ultra will end the era of Samsung flagships with curved screens, which began with the Galaxy S6 Edge in 2015.

All three flagships were successfully restored Apple's newest top-end smartphone continues to be tested online in a variety of ways, revealing the limits of its capabilities. This time, the thematic resource TechDroider, known for its tests, published a video where three competing flagship smartphones are subjected to “torture in freezing water.” [caption id="attachment_61726" align="aligncenter" width="780"] iPhone 15 Pro Max, S23 Ultra and Pixel 7 Pro[/caption] Solving the overheating problem: iPhone 15 Pro Max, S23 Ultra, and Pixel 7 Pro were “tortured” by rain In the announcement for the video, TechDroider joked: iPhone 15 Pro Max overheating? Here's a quick solution. In the video itself, the iPhone 15 Pro Max, Samsung S23 Ultra, and Pixel 7 Pro are tested together for resistance to freezing water. All three devices received IP68 protection against water and dust, and TechDroider decided to find out how they would behave after 6 hours of freezing. https://youtu.be/mqUpwIZt6ag To begin with, the smartphones were tested in rain and showers, as a result, all survived and showed no signs of moisture getting inside. Then the smartphones were placed in a container of water. At this stage, the author discovered that the S Pen stylus continues to work correctly with the Galaxy S23 Ultra even underwater. As a result, all smartphones issued a warning about water getting into the USB Type-C port, and the Pixel 7 Pro even notified the owner when the connector was dry and charging became safe. The final freezing and defrosting led to minor problems. Thus, condensation appeared in the camera block of the iPhone 15 Pro Max and all three smartphones lost volume and correct operation of the speakers. After the smartphones were allowed to rest for 24 hours without drowning or freezing, they began to work again as before. However, the iPhone 15 Pro Max required a reboot to fully restore wired charging functionality.
