India mandates FM Radio in smartphones
Indian government issues advisory to not disable FM radio (Frequency Modulation) on mobile phones by default.
Phones without FM radio should make efforts to provide the service
FM Radios operate in bands which have high bandwidth and low frequency, so they are able to reach areas where even mobile connectivity is difficult.
The advisory was issued after the IT ministry observed that there was a "drastic fall" with the FM tuners feature, which impacted the ability of the poor to get free FM radio services.
It also affects government's ability to send out real-time information during emergencies, disasters, and calamities to the public early

TikTok Tracked Users Who Watched Gay Content
Source
TikTok does not ask for users' sexual orientation, but based on the content users watch, the algorithm was assuming that users were members of the LGBTQ community and categorizing them accordingly to get people use the app more.
Clusters had names such as "mainstream female," "alt female," "southeastern black male," and "coastal, white-collar male,"
For eg: "alt-female" cluster has content related to "tattoos, some lesbian content, and 'Portland'
This information could be viewed by some employees through a dashboard as it has users ID numbers.
Also, some employees in China had access to the data claims former employees
TikTok in its defense said that the dashboard was deleted a year back and the data merely represented their interests and did not revealed users sexual orientation

Google's Material You with Android 14 to bring bolder colors, while Weather app gets redesigned
A Googler tweeted the redesigned Google Weather with material you theming.
The redesign will have a pill-shaped search bar with the location along with a single main feed that will note Hourly forecast” and a “10-day forecast” with high/low.
Our Beloved Weather Frog is still staying :)
Starting with Android 14, Google will be introducing a bolder, even more colorful version of Material You.
Current Material You colors look pale and muted rather than bold and vibrant.
For Android 14, the Material Design team has prepared a new theme style that shows bolder Material You colors.
Internally its named “Fidelity,” and it will ensure that the preferred base color is directly used in the final theme.
In short, currently Red/ Black color theming looks pale giving pink/ grey shade.
But with Android 14, the EXACT color will be reflected whether you chose hot pink or sports car red color

Poco F5 series will get 2 years warranty
Now why 2 years warranty on it EVERYBODY already knows
The same original model which launched in China only has 1 year warranty because they know quality will not disappoint
But with Poco, anytime- anyday- anywhere motherboard or camera can be dead
Poco F5 is rebranded Redmi Note 12 Turbo
Poco F5 Pro is rebranded Redmi K60 launched in December, 2022 in China
Now, to differentiate so that it should NOT look rebranded, Poco is offering 400mAh less battery than Redmi K60 to global users
NOTE:- Poco (by Xiaomi) RIPs your warranty if your smartphone just has scratches on physical body or keeps it for even 1 month for repair in name of giving 2 year warranty

Click HERE to check out Full Specs
12bit Flat means 68.7 billion colors which poco added but Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 does NOT supports it and only supports upto 10 bit color depth.
So Poco added 2 bit extra software wise and said 12-bit panel LOL
2 years warranty because Poco have records of their smartphones itself being dead or the camera.
So to regain the trust, they giving 2 yrs warranty.
BUT Poco RIPs your warranty if it has scratches
Launch Price:
• 8GB+256GB : ₹29,999
• 12GB+256GB : ₹33,999

Poco F5 Pro Launched Globally
Specifications:
Its REBRANDED Redmi K60 which was launched 5 months back in China in December 2022
• 6.67" 3200 x 1440 resolution TCL AMOLED display
• 120Hz refresh rate
• 12bit color depth or 68.7 billion colors
• Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 SoC
• Total 6933mm² with 5000mm² large VC liquid cooling area
• 64MP main (Omnivision OV64B with OIS) + 8MP UltraWide + 2MP macro triple rear camera
(same Camera as Poco F5)
• 5160mAh battery capacity
(5500mAh to China model)
Click HERE to check out Full Specs
While launching Poco F5 Pro, they did SHIT Marketing and compared it to S23+ because S23+ packs Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and has 50MP main whereas F5 Pro has SD 8+ Gen1 and has 64MP.
So acc to POCO, More MP means better camera 🤡
Reasons for lesser battery :
Cost-cutting for Global users
The battery tech is ALSO different:
Redmi K60 battery is more dense and uses new techs
Poco offered old tech to Global users
Launch Price:
• 8GB+256GB : 449$
• 12GB+256GB : 499$

Pixel 7a specifications have already been leaked and seems similar to Pixel 7 only
It will be priced at 500$ Globally or 44,999₹ in India
Comparing to pixel 7, the 7a is inferior to it in almost all terms
So if you are getting a Pixel 7 around same price as Pixel 7a, buy pixel 7 only unless you want a compact phone

Poco F5 Pro will NOT be launched in India
Only Poco F5 will be sold in India while F5 Pro will be launched globally too
The reason is that Poco themselves made higher price difference between Poco F5 with SD 7+ Gen 2 and F5 Pro with Sd 8+ Gen 1
Because of it they themselves are not launching it in India
Coming to F5, it packs 12bit color depth (68.7 billion colors) but in reality chip supports only upto 10bit (1.07 bln colors), so 12bit panel is a 'gimmick'
Cameras:
64MP (Omnivision OV64M, OIS) Main
8MP UltraWide + 2MP Useless camera
So there is NO improvement of camera as Poco F4 which was launched 1 year ago in June,2022 also has SAME camera sensors
2yrs Warranty once again to regain trust of customers because previously the motherboard or camera gets RIP by Poco MIUI updates
BUT, Poco service center allegedly keeps phones for a month for repair under warranty; also warranty gets voided due to scratches on physical body.
Price:
• 8GB+256GB : ₹29,999
