What is DNS over HTTPS (DoH)? To understand the DNS over HTTPS (DoH) protocol, it is customary to, first, understand what DNS is and how your requests are sent across the internet. In layman terms, DNS or Domain Name System is a decentralized directory of all the different websites on the internet and their associated IP (Internet Protocol) addresses.

However, it’s 2020 and nothing is really normal so Apple had to push its special event to October and keep fans waiting for the new iPhone devices. The wait gets even worse when you factor in consumers who want to pick up the iPhone 12 Mini or the iPhone 12 Pro Max which are going to be available only in November. That’s not the pint though. The point is, every year, Apple adds some cool new features to the new iPhone devices, and one of them this time is MagSafe....

To jog your memory here’s what the tweet from Google read, “Well, since there seems to be some interest, ‘here you go! Wait ’til you see what it can do.” In addition, the tweet also included an image of the alleged Pixel 4, lying on its back, with focus on highlighting the rear camera setup. Without going into much detail, the discussion about the inclusion of a Soli chip started with the appearance of a mysterious hole in the camera bump....

KaiOS is a feature phone platform which is, in fact, a fork of the erstwhile Firefox OS. Ever since the JioPhone, KaiOS has managed to strike more deals which include HMD Global’s Nokia 8110 and Alcatel’s OneTouch Go Flip. Mozilla had tried (and failed) to create an ecosystem of HTML5 based apps which KaiOS is now seemingly succeeded to implement. At this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, KaiOS announced some major tie-ups including access to apps from Facebook, Twitter and Google in the form of its Voice Assistant, Google Maps, and Google Search....

Sounds familiar? Well, as you might know, gaming takes up a fair amount of our time, and everyone is looking for the next best game to spend their time with. The virtual world is growing bigger and bigger, but the problem here is that games cost money, and the more games you play, the more it costs. What if you didn’t have to pay for games?

China China is one of the most unique telecom markets in the world. While in most countries, telecom started as a state owned monopoly, private investment was allowed at some of time nonetheless. China though, has never allowed private investment in Telecom. There are three telecom operators in China namely China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom. All three of them are owned and operated by the government. The biggest of them is China Mobile with a subscriber base of around 837 million as of 30th June....

Google Glasses: Still a Dream I decided to let things cool down and see what people think about it. At least, from where I stand, Project Glass is what it should be – a project and I don’t think we’ll see those fantastic glasses any time soon. If you ask me, I think Google and companies alike should focus on solving stringent issues of our digital lifes before luring us with almost hollow promises....

However, what functionality you get out of a taskbar depends entirely on its implementation on an operating system. Talking in context to Windows specifically, the taskbar serves an even broader purpose than basic multitasking: it brings along additional functionalities such as quick-access shortcuts, date-time view, easy-access notifications, and most importantly, the ability to personalize itself. Despite its extensive functionality, though, there are times when the taskbar can start causing problems....

Getting rid of the clutter Just like Samsung’s TouchWiz, Oppo’s ColorOS was a cluttered, if feature-heavy, UI. Yes, some people liked the multiplicity of options, but many others found it simply overwhelming and some others felt that it had way too much bloatware onboard. Well, that changes with ColorOS 11 which is built on top of Android 11. However, we think Oppo’s efforts in Color OS 11 are closer to Xiaomi’s in MIUI 12 than to Samsung’s One UI – the interface tries to deliver a clean experience but while retaining a very distinct identity of its own, complete with its own tools and apps....

Another big addition comes in the form of Heart Rate Sensor which will go along with the other features. The Mi Band 2 display is programmed to show step count, heart rate, power, calories, sleep quality and thankfully it will also be beaming notifications from your phone.

Screen While the more expensive Mi A2 features a traditional 18:9 screen, the Mi A2 Lite has a notch-equipped 19:9 display on the front. The resolution is the same on both, however — Full HD. Both of them also have a layer of Corning’s Gorilla Glass. Specifications The most critical hardware difference between the Mi A2 and Mi A2 Lite is in their performance hardware. While the latter is powered by the same Snapdragon 625 chipset found on the old Mi A1, the Mi A2 ships with a mightier Snapdragon 660 processor....

While Mi Home products including the Mi Air Purifier 2, Mi Cooker, Smart LED bulbs etc have been exceedingly successful in China and surrounding markets, Xiaomi had delayed the Indian launch so far. That said, Xiaomi VP Hugo Barra had however hinted about the company’s plan to launch the Mi Air Purifier in an around Diwali during the Mi Max launch in India. Now the upcoming YouTube stream stating a “breath of fresh air” makes it even more clear, leaving very little doubt in our minds that the launch in question is that to the Air Purifier....

Which, let us confess, is one heck of a surprise for us. For, when Apple unveiled the iPhone XR, it seemed to have cut back on the cameras and the display to accommodate a lower price tag than the XS and XS Max. So while the XS (and Max) had dual 12.0-megapixel cameras on the back and a 7-megapixel front camera, the XR only had a single 12.0-megapixel rear camera, although it had the same front camera set up....
