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.

OnePlus 9 - You HAVE to settle

This is a review of the OnePlus 9 and its comparison to the OnePlus 9 Pro and 8 Pro. This blog also includes discussion related to the missing OIS in OnePlus. Hardware There is a lot to like about this phone. I love the fact that it has a flat-screen and this was going to be my preferred phone instead of the 9 Pro but that may have changed. So the speakers are as good as the 9 Pro ones. They are not as good as gaming phones but, they're good. There is a solid 7-8 hours of battery life. There is a wireless charger but, with less but, still enough power. The battery is much more consistent than the battery on 9 Pro because of the high refresh rate in the Pro version. The Problem So I was sure that the OnePlus 9 camera was going to as good as the 8 Pro if not better. But, for some reason, OnePlus decide to remove optical image stabilization. This may sound very small but, the difference is huge and every OnePlus phone has had it till this one. Which 730$ does not have OIS. I am really...

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...

Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This is my review of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+. iPad's competitor? If you would have asked me some time before that "Which is the best tablet", I would have undoubtedly said "iPad Pro", but now we have competition! Samsung Galaxy S7+ is surely the best android tablet and a toe-to-toe competitor of the iPad. It is, in fact, the more practical choice for many people. The hardware specs on this thing are solid! There are two speakers on each side of the tablet and this thing is awesome for anything which has something to do with audio! Screen, Pen and Keyboard. S7+ has a 120Hz panel and because it has a high refresh rate, things look superfluid. I have said before that refresh rate should not be a major reason to buy a smartphone but it definitely is in tablets because of the electronic pen. The pen on this device is also up to the point. There are only 7 milliseconds of latency. The pen magnetically sticks on ...
