Apple iPhone 12 Pro tipped to feature 120Hz ProMotion display, 3x optical zoom

Another day, another iPhone 12 leak. EverythingApplePro has posted another video and this time about, they are working with the notable tipster, Max Weinbach. The new video claims to offer more claims to detail information about the 2020 iPhones, tipped to be the iPhone 12 series of devices. As per the video, the upcoming iPhones will offer a refresh rate of 120Hz, at least in the top-end variants. 

The video claims that the iPhone 12 will dynamically switch between 60Hz and 120Hz in order to conserve battery, similar to the ProMotion tech used in the iPad Pro. It was also added that Apple would be increasing the battery capacity in order to maintain a good battery life. This isn’t the first report that claims Apple will offer a 120Hz refresh rate in its 2020 iPhones. Back in October, Digitimes reported pretty much the same information about Apple using its ProMotion tech on iPhones. 

Coming back to the video, Apple is said to be improving it’s low-light photography capabilities with faster autofocus speeds improved image stabilization. Most leaks suggest that the new phones will come with a new LiDAR sensor that should increase autofocus speeds and should improve the accuracy of Portrait Mode photos. Further, the telephoto lens is tipped to offer 3x zoom instead of the 2x zoom it currently offers. Further, Apple is also tipped to improve the low light capability of the telephoto sensor.  There were reports that Apple wan planning to switch to a 64MP sensor, but EverythingApplePro’s video claims that will not be happening due to issues with autofocus and as such, the company may stick with a 12MP sensor, at least for another generation. 

Further, Apple is also said to improve FaceID by widening the area that the system scans. This should reduce the need for users to hold the straight in front of their face when they want to unlock it.

20th Century Fox researchers create AI model to predict audience for a movie

Image
In a first, researchers from 20th Century Fox film studios have developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered model to predict what target audience will most likely see a movie. The prediction is done on the basis of the film’s trailer. Since video trailers are one of the most critical elements of marketing campaigns for new films, the model can provide an opportunity to filmmakers to make movies depending on the interests of general moviegoer population, easily communicate the plot of the movie to them, present the main characters, and reveal important hints about the story. This could also help them to understand what aspects of the movie the audience liked and what parts they did not. “These insights typically determine the strategy for the rest of the marketing campaign. In this paper we present a tool, which we call Merlin Video, that uses computer vision to create dense representations of the movie trailer, and uses those representations to predict customer behaviour.

Apple is rumoured to launch the iPhone SE successor - tentatively called the iPhone SE 2 - in 2020. Now, alleged iPhone SE 2 renders have leaked online. The phone is supposed to pack flagship internals in a not-so-flagship level design. The first leak-based renders and 360-degree video of alleged iPhone SE 2 suggest that it will carry the design of iPhone 8, which means it will come with the Touch ID button. Further, the leaks reveal a single rear camera setup. The latest development comes courtesy of tipster @OnLeaks in collaboration with iGeeksBlog. At first glance, the iPhone SE 2 looks like the iPhone 8. However, there are said to be a few differentiating factors, both internally and externally, to distinguish between the two phones. On the exterior, the iPhone SE 2 is touted to come with a frosted glass finish similar to the one seen on iPhone 11 Pro. The leaked renders suggest that iPhone SE 2 will sport a stainless steel frame that looks like iPhone X’s frame.  iPhone SE 2 is

After Facebook, Apples plan to introduce Apple Pay in India stalls: Report

Image
Apple’s plans to introduce its UPI-based payments platform ‘Apple Pay’ seem to have hit a brick wall. According to a report in The Economic Times, the reason for this is that the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) recently laid out rules which make it mandatory for any company, who wishes to introduce payment service in India, to save all the related data on local servers in the country. Citing people with the knowledge of the matter, the national daily reported that apart from Apple and Facebook, Amazon has also stalled the full rollout of its service, Amazon Pay. Google, which recently renamed its UPI-based service ‘Tez’ to ‘Google Pay’, is also reported to be “assessing the evolving situation around data localisation.” With the rules in place, other players like Facebook, Mastercard, Visa, and PayPal are also uncertain of going ahead with their plans. “Apple put the brakes on introducing Apple Pay in the country despite holding discussions with a few leading banks and the National Payme
