on

Samsung recently updated the Samsung Internet Beta which includes new features, an enhancement to existing features, and UI refinements. According to the official announcement, Samsung will release the stable Samsung Internet 13.0 later this year. You can check the latest addition in detail below:

ONE UI 3.0 ENHANCEMENTS
Samsung added One UI 3.0 enhancement on the Samsung Internet 13.0 beta. One of these changes is the immersive scroll. This will make non-scrollable elements like the status and navigation UI hide when you are scrolling, allowing you to focus on the content you are manipulating.

The One UI 3 also brings an expandable app bar into bookmarks, saved pages, history, downloads, ad blocker, add-ins, and settings. This expandable info provides useful information on the tap of a button.

Additionally, the company is bringing the “more menu” button down to the lower bar for better reach to sections like tab manager and downloads.

PERMISSION REQUEST UI

Samsung is changing the permission request UI to display a warning message if the website looks malicious. This feature will stop notifications from those sites that like to mislead their users into accepting notifications.

DOUBLE-TAP TO PLAY/PAUSE YOUR VIDEOS

With Samsung Internet 13.0 beta, users can play or pause content while in video assistant fullscreen by double-tapping the center area of the screen.

EASY EDITING OF YOUR BOOKMARKS

Just press the bookmark icon and you will get a toast notification to edit your bookmark on the Internet 13.0 beta.

ADD-ON EXTENSION API EXPANSION

Samsung has expanded the browser extension APIs available on Samsung Internet. These are the new API modules available: WebRequest, Proxy, Cookies, Types, History, Alarms, Privacy, Notifications, Permissions, Idle, and Management.

BETTER USER PRIVACY IN SECRET MODE

There is now a better and more detailed explanation of what Secret Mode consists of. We have added this to the initial Secret Mode launch page. Samsung also added an ‘About Secret Mode’ section in the settings to make it absolutely transparent how it helps you protect your privacy.

STATUS BAR VISIBILITY

The company is now allowing users to hide or show the status bar while viewing websites. If you enable this, the status bar disappears when scrolling up and reappear when scrolling down.

INSANE: Samsung Remaster brings teeth to baby pic, check video

Samsung Photo Remaster AI Teeth Baby Pic

Samsung managed to silence the AI Moon controversy with an official explanation. Samsung might be taking a sigh of relief in unawareness of the radical use of AI in its photo Remaster tool as it just caught bringing artificial teeth to a baby pic.

Twitter user @earcity shared the video, which shows how Samsung and One UI features are radically using AI to make things magical. The user shared a video revealing that the Remaster feature brought teeth to a 7-month-old baby, who has nothing in reality.

Since the user is shocked to see artificial teeth in the baby’s pic, it raises questions of authenticity. No doubt, machines, and AI don’t have a brain to think or emotions to feel, which makes us just laugh over these kinds of magical incidents.

However, smartphone vendors can make kind use of deep machine learning and artificial intelligence. According to Samsung, the Remaster feature just upscales the image and removes reflections and shadows so the photo can look better and blur-free.

Meanwhile, TheVerge tried doing the same with a baby pic and Samsung’s Remaster feature. The experiment didn’t go the same as the video shared by the Twitter user, possibly due to the pose of the baby in the pic. As far as the spread is concerned, there are no complaints about fake teeth by Samsung Remaster.

As anything isn’t going on automatically there, it’s not good to blame Samsung for the teeth error. Remaster feature works on images captured by Galaxy or available in the Gallery app. You need to tap the toggle to trigger the feature upscaling of images, which purely uses AI.

Lucid Motors

Next month, Samsung boss Lee Jae-yong will meet with the management of Lucid Motors in the US to discuss the battery business. According to the information, Samsung Chairman Lee is scheduled to meet with the management of Lucid Motors next month.

It is likely that Korean President Yoon Seok-yeol will accompany on his state visit to the US on April 26 and meet at a Korea-US business roundtable. At Lucid Motors, CEO Peter Rawlinson is expected to discuss with Chairman Lee regarding the ways to cooperate with electric vehicle batteries.

Lucid Motors has used cylindrical batteries from Samsung SDI and LG Energy Solutions. From 2020, LG Energy Solutions is in charge of most of the volume, however, this contract ends in 2023. Samsung SDI can offer Lucid Motors a 46 pie (Φ 46 mm in diameter) cylindrical battery that it has decided to supply to BMW.

In particular, considering the relationship between Chairman Lee and Lucid Motors and Crown Prince bin Salman, and the recent rapid growth of the battery market, there is a possibility that the battery factory construction mentioned in 2018 will be mentioned again.

After meeting with BMW chairman Oliver Zipse in June 2022, Chairman Lee visited Samsung SDI’s Suwon plant in February 2023 to tour the all-solid-state battery test production (pilot) line and seems to be focusing on the battery business.

The all-solid-state battery piler line will be completed in the first half of the year. As Chairman Lee directly took care of the business site on this day, it is observed that Samsung’s version of the ‘battery super gap’ strategy will be in full swing.

Huawei’s Galaxy Z Fold4 rival is lighter and thinner but not better

Published

Huawei Mate X3

Huawei just brought its new flagship devices to consumers in China. In addition to the P60 series, Huawei launched the Mate X3 foldable phone as an indirect competitor to the Galaxy Z Fold4. Compared to Samsung, Huawei’s foldable phone is lighter and thinner, but not better.

According to Chinese media (via Huawei Central), the Huawei Mate X3 foldable weighs just 239 grams. Besides the lightweight structural design, the smartphone mainly uses ultra-light diamond aluminum and carbon fiber bamboo books as part of weight reduction.

Compared to Huawei’s latest foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold4 is quite heavier as it weighs 263 grams. And due to the U-shaped hinge design, the Galaxy foldable becomes radically thicker than its Chinese competitors from Huawei, OPPO, and Honor.

The Mate X3 reportedly uses ultra-thin Type-C technology to move the original device shell to the middle frame to reduce thickness and make it lighter. The phone’s thickness is just 11.08mm when it is folded, and 5.3mm when it is unfolded, which is over half of its predecessor’s build.

Talking about the hinge design, the Huawei Mate X3 features a new generation of double-rotation water-drop hinge. It makes the folding and unfolding experience smoother by maintaining tougher folding reliability using a double-rotating water drop shaft with 700Mpa wing aluminum.

The Galaxy Z Fold4 is Samsung’s second-generation foldable phone, which brought an IPX8 rating for water resistance. Huawei has now also brought the water resistance feature to its 2023 foldable phone, but the next Galaxy Fold reportedly features dust resistance too.

Similar to the P60 series, the Chinese phone maker introduced a two-way satellite SMS feature for the Mate X3 smartphone as well. Moreover, there’s a BatteryCare tech that extends the battery life and keeps healthy for up to five years of continuous use.

Talking about security and reliability, Huawei Mate X3 has nothing to offer. Samsung’s Galaxy Fold phone brings industry-grade software, which keeps your data and privacy secure and the phone maker away from getting banned by the US, like Huawei.
