Early impressions of the iOS 14!


Hey Guys! Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This blog is about my thoughts on the new iOS 14 software update from Apple.




One pretty solid thing is that even the old iPhone SE is getting this update. This is a very significant update for Apple. Probably, the most important one in a long time. The big thing in this update is widgets. Widgets are something we have seen in Android since forever, and it is good to see them in iOS as well. The widget experience is very different on the iPhone, these widgets come in three sizes; small, medium and large. The small square-shaped one looks the nicest on the home screen.




If you want to interact with the widgets without opening the app, it is not possible in the small widgets. I liked the widgets, but I did not feel familiar with them. Another thing which they added is picture-in-picture again something which Android already has. I actually found it weird that the old iPhone SE could perform picture-in-picture with just 2 gigs of RAM. It's pretty cool. They are also allowing to change the default apps for mails and web-browsers. This is a good start, but it should be extended to all the apps.


Another significant feature they have added in iOS 14 is the app library. It is basically a storage place for all of your apps. If you have a ton of apps, it is beneficial. It gives you a lot of customizability so you can make your home screen ultra-clean. It is a bit different, but it is better than nothing. Another new trending feature is the double/triple tap. So, if you tap the back of the phone, the notification bar pops up which is cool. Though there is one problem, that if you keep the unlocked phone down, it activates that gesture. The idea is constructive for phones with notches but needs improvement. 





There are many other features in iOS 14, but I don't think they are essential. I just feel that i0S14 is a step in the right direction for Apple.

Apple's AirTags

This blog is to discuss if AirTags really prevent thefts... Misusage So I read a lot of theories on how these tags are actually helping in the thefts. So if you are a thief and stealing a bike with an AirTag, you get a notification on your iPhone and then you can easily disable that. But, it's not so easy. The Tag does not notify you that an AirTag is with you until you reach a landmark. So that the owner knows you stopped at that landmark. Maybe your house, mall or a restaurant. Now there is one problem with this. If I have an AirTag and I plant it in your bag for example. So you won't know something with a GPS is with you giving your location and telling the landmark you are at. So people can track you and that is both scary and creepy. Good or Bad? Eh.. A bit of both. So, it's great if someone is trying to steal your stuff but, it's creepy when someone is stalking your movement. But, this is the first time Apple is doing this so it is not perfect but, I believe it is...

17' Razer Blade Pro 2019

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This laptop is SO much better than the previous blade pro. The thermals are crazy good. I would say that it is their best gaming laptop with awesome thermal performance. This laptop is brand new from this year, It is completely redesigned. It is their most expensive, most powerful and the most big-screened gaming laptop and it's a nice looking unit. I like this laptop a lot, however, there are some things which I want you to know if you're interested in picking this thing up! 1) Hardware The build of this device is very similar to the build of the 15' this year. It's got the same kind of design, shape, the light-up snake logo up front. It is very much an updated Razer product. I highly recommend you for getting a case or skin it if you buy a black one because even with very safe handling this device sometimes has dents and they are very much visible on a black one.         This laptop is obviously big...

Intel's Trap

 This is my blog to review Acer Triton 300 SE, Asus Dash F15 and MSI Stealth 15M's performance with the Intel H35 chips. I will also talk about the competition between Intel and AMD. Many gaming laptops are coming out, and some of them are good, especially the new AMD ones but if you are looking to buy a laptop and your choice has an Intel chip; You have been fooled! So I am going to talk about some new Intel devices and then about Intel in general. Now I have nothing against Intel, in fact, I myself am typing this on an Intel device. Asus Dash F15 This machine has a 4-core CPU. So, this makes it easy to cool, lighter, thinner, and you would think cheaper. So it is a nice idea. But, Asus didn't make it cheap. So it does not really make sense anymore. This laptop will cost you 1700$, and you can get 8-core Asus devices in that range so why would somebody go for this?  The gaming performance is good as it has RTX 3070, and most of the games will give you a good frame...
