图片
Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-known analyst with unique insights into Apple products, wrote an article yesterday predicting that Apple will launch a foldable iPhone in 2023.  Although the specific specifications and design are unclear, Guo Mingchi said that the flexible OLED panel of the iPhone folding machine will be exclusively supplied by Samsung, and the screen size will be 8 inches.

It is pointed out that Apple's two folding machine prototypes are similar to Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip. The former is a 7.6-inch tablet when it is spread out, and the latter has a long and narrow 6.7-inch flexible screen.

Apple applies for technology patent, new iPhone material adopts 120Hz refresh rate screen

图片
Before the iPhone 12 was released last year, there have been rumors that Apple intends to introduce a ProMotion display screen with a 120Hz refresh rate to the iPhone, but nothing happened in the end.  The latest news is that the ProMotion screen is expected to land on the new iPhone released this year, and the website Patently Apple also claims to have found some clues. The website that specializes in Apple-related patent information found that Apple had previously obtained a patent for a display screen with a variable update rate. Simply put, the update rate of the screen is not fixed, but changes in response to the needs of users at the moment. For example, when playing games, the update rate will be increased to 120Hz to increase the smoothness of the screen, while when browsing the web, it will be adjusted down to save power. Although obtaining a patent does not mean that it will be commercialized, the current iPad Pro has adopted a ProMotion screen with a refresh rate of 120H...

图片
On February 2, Apple pushed iOS 14.5 and WatchOS 7.4 beta systems. In addition to regular bug fixes, it also brought an important improvement, namely the addition of the Apple Watch to unlock iPhone. It is reported that when the iPhone determines that the user is wearing a mask and the facial features are covered, it will automatically turn to the Apple Watch to unlock it. If the user is wearing the Apple Watch, it will directly unlock when the user is close to the phone. Due to the impact of the new crown epidemic, the Face ID face unlock function has become a major pain point. Now it is no longer necessary to frequently remove the mask or enter the password to unlock the phone. You only need to bring the Apple Watch close to the phone to realize the second opening. It is worth noting that this feature of WatchOS 7.4 can only unlock the phone, and cannot use Face ID for payment. It is understood that users can directly unlock the Mac while wearing the Apple Watch, but cannot unlock th...

Is it bad to let an iPhone 12 Pro charge overnight?

Modern phones charge to they get to 100% charged and then the circuity turns off. It will only turn on again if the phone needs to be topped up. Also, modern iPhones, well not that modern actually from 6s up learn your daily routine and when they are typically disconnected from the charger and plan the charging to be completed at that time. For example if they need to slow the charging rate down so they are not charged before that time they will. This is why on modern iPhones it will come up with “scheduled to finished charging at….” If you always disconnect your iPhone at 6am for example your iPhone will plan the charging to be completed at that time not at 4 am etc etc. The most basic thing of charging your iPhone 12 Pro is charge whenever you want to, for a long as you want to.
