VIVO company is back with another phone with better features and most importantly it has brought an affordable gaming smartphone i.e IQOO. IQOO by Vivo is the 3rd smartphone to enter the market after the NEX Dual and NEX Ultimate.

The Vivo IQ00 has in-built gaming optimization software, along with which it also features gameplay sensors on the display screen and a vapor cooling chamber, a very unique feature that gained much attention among pro smartphone gamers. If gaming isn’t your first priority but other features are, even then Vivo IQOO does not disappoints users. Because with its excellent gaming features it offers better performance and has a higher storage system.

Let’s see, what is in this smartphone that fascinates everybody. Take a look at the detailed features of Vivo IQOO as present below. If you are planning on buying this model, go through the features and then make a rightful decision.

    GPU Adreno 640
Design & Case

When we talk about the case, just like other modern smartphones in the market, IQOO comes with a blend of metal and glass for its outer frame.

Vivo has adorned the company’s branding with attractive colors with a blooming finish on the back glass. The LED strip at the center adds a nice touch to the back. Vivo IQOO comes in three brilliant color variants: Plain black, Optic Blue and Crimson Orange.

IQOO looks hefty though, but not like ordinary gaming smartphones that look very bulky. The Vivo IQOO weighs 190g which is slim enough to be a gaming phone. The metal, shining -smooth surface makes this phone even more attractive than any other gaming smartphone such as Xiaomi Black Shark.

Software & Hardware Installation

The Vivo IQOO also has amazing FunTouch OS, a customized version of Android 9.0 Pie. FunTouch OS works wonderfully with Android 9.0 pie but needs some time to acclimatize with the internal condition.

The FunTouch Operating system includes numerous language options, but the translations for the languages are often limited or sometimes non-existing. Moreover, Vivo IQOO is pre-installed with various apps, as per the Chinese market standards.

The Vivo IQOO model offers a range of storage and RAM which varies from model to model. The phone has the fastest Snapdragon 855 processor along with 128GB ROM and 6GB of RAM pre-installed by default. Vivo IQOO also allows storage upgradation to 8GB or 12GB of RAM as per user’s choice. Vital games need a huge amount of storage space, and for that upgradation becomes necessary.

Just if you didn’t know, there’s also a variant of Vivo IQOO available in 256GB storage with in-built 8GB of RAM.

If you frequently download a lot of games, you’ll definitely want to switch for a 256GB storage option in the forthcoming future. Also, there is no microSD slot for external storage, thus, we suggest you go for a 256GB storage option in the first place, so you don’t have to pay more on upgradation.

Communication, Navigation, and Connectivity

The Vivo IQOO supports GSM, 3G/4G and LTE networks, which of course is expected from any new technology smartphones. The phone uses Cat. 12 for the latter, which considerably gives up to 600 Mb/s download and 100 Mb/s upload internet speed.

Along with this, the IQOO supports Bluetooth 5.0, NFC and almost all Wi-Fi standards to date i.e IEEE 802.11ac. Better surfing speed in a mid-range budget-friendly smartphone is truly amazing.

The new Vivo IQOO uses Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou, and GPS for navigation and location services which are enough to track your location in any range. Sometimes the range is not accurate, but that totally depends on your actual location.

The Vivo IQOO allows LTE on both SIM slots. It does not support voice over LTE VoLTE or VoWiFi. Making it difficult to connect easily.

The Vivo IQOO has a powerful USB 2.0 Type-C port for charging along with a 3.5 mm jack which keeps the smartphone apart from most modern flagships. Unfortunately, streaming DRM-protected content is not present because IQOO is certified only up to DRM Widevine L3.

Camera

The Vivo IQOO is majorly for mobile gamers but could have been better with the camera performance. The camera at the back features a triple rear-facing camera embedded with a 12mp real lens with an f/1.8 aperture, a second 13mp ultrawide lens with a narrowing capacity of f/2.4 aperture, and a 2mp depth-sensing lens with f/2.4 aperture.

During daylight, the lens captures best shots, but a little disappointed with low-light or nightlight mode due to overexposed, blurred or unclear capturing effect.

Battery & Performance

Vivo IQOO has a 4400mAh battery with a processor Snapdragon 855 SoC, which is presently Qualcomm’s flagship chipset. The battery and phone performance is efficient for any gaming and surfing purpose. The Turbocharger quickly power-ups the phone in just 1-hour which lasts all day lone.

PROS
- - Excellent gaming performance
    
    Easy storage upgradation
    
    Attractive display
    
    Flash charging
    
    Excellent daylight capturing capacity
    
    The Vivo IQOO has the best FunTouch OS and has an upgraded version of Android 9.0 pie
CONS
- - Underwhelming cameras+ Lowlight blurring
    
    Battery life could be better
    
    Does not give access to DRM-protected content
    
    Fingerprint sensor troubles sometimes
Conclusion

If you are seeking for a more affordable smartphone with serious gaming features, then, Vivo IQOO is clearly a better choice. This gaming smartphone provides better and all top-notch features such as the software that enables you to play without any interruption. If you can sacrifice a camera over gaming, then Vivo IQ00 is definitely a better choice to consider.

PUBG V6.1 Update: Karakin Map – Black Zone, Motor Gliders And Sticky Bombs

With new versions and add-ons rolling out each day, PUBG has been one of the most played video games in 2019 and even now. This online multiplayer battle game keeps the players glued for hours.

The newest PUBG upgrade to v6.1 is currently on the test server, and it brings with it a new map called Karakin. PUBG assures the new map comes in with improved activities and is a small area measuring about 2×2 km, which is sure to heighten the competition even more.

The Karakin map is the smallest map on PUBG and guarantees further action in it. The smaller rocky terrain combat zone makes it an even more hectic fight for the players to battle it.

The Karakin map allows only players on the map. It also has a new feature, unlike the other maps, which is the Black Zone. The Black Zone is a massive damage probe area that presses players out from hiding and instead right into the combat zone. Adding to it, there are multiple new attributes introduced in the game, including motor glider lorry.

With rocky terrain, undulating surface, ground tunnels, and in the suburban regions, the Karakin map is one of the most exceptional places for the perfect combat between the extreme players.

The New Map Feature

The most exciting and intriguing part of the Karakin map is the Black Zone or Black Area. In this region, the structures, as well as objects, are frequently bombed. So when the players hear the alarm and are in the purple circle, they need to run to safe regions or for cover. The frameworks that will be flattened by the Black area are marked with ‘X’ on the mini-map.

In this map, the buildings and ruins seem to advance in real-time throughout the time of the match. Another exciting feature in this map is that heavy bullets can potentially infiltrate weak walls. So, hiding and finding cover for oneself can be a task on this map.

Updates Of PUBG V6.1

In this new version 6.1, there are also sticky bombs that are only available on the Karakin map. The use of these bombs is to ruin floors and weak walls to engage in sudden attacks. Moreover, the motor glider lorry is available in three maps, Erangel, Miramar, and Karakin.

PUBG has also introduced a new feature known as the Survivor Pass, which allows team members to bring back other members who have been executed in the combat within a matter of 2 minutes. The alive players need to pick up the survivor pass from the crates of their dead team members and reach the nearest tower to recall them into the mission.

PUBG aims to bring in more and more objectives, week, and season missions and development goals throughout the year.

Design

We are absolutely in the dark, but according to the reports, the console comes with a boxed case accompanied by a USB Type-A port with a front power button.

On the backside of the console, one can notice two USB Type-A ports. An HDMI port, an optical audio port, Ethernet, and the power-in slot coupled with holes all around. This is to enable heat to vent out while gaming. There is a rectangular port that would be used as a diagnostic port that might be canceled out in the final device.

The pictures that are circulating in the social networking sites have barcodes, which means that the person who has uploaded the images might be in trouble. The photos that are being advertised may vary from the final hardware.

Loading Time

The loading time of the upcoming console has been reduced with an SSD speed up to 2 GB/s. It is less than its previous version. It is also a rumor that the latest version of the Microsoft console is all set to leverage Project XCloud game streaming that ensures reduced time for installation; thereby, the newest version is considered to be time-saving.

The Series X is rumored to have improved controller with tactile-d-pad with a screenshot sharing buttons but is smaller than its previous version. With a capability of 120 frames per second, the console will be completed by variable refresh rates.

Bottom Line

These are mere assumptions without any detailed knowledge of the final device. Let us be patient regarding its debut in the holiday of 2020. This console might be the best gaming operation Microsoft has ever invested into.

The phone has a resolution of 3200 x 1440, wide Quad high-definition Plus. The user can drop down the resolution level if he wants to save battery life. This is considered to be one of the most high-resolution phones available in the market now.

The 120 Hz refresh rate enables the display to update the viewing image by 120 times per second. The Galaxy S20 Plus has a somewhat generic look when compared to other phones. The phone has a dimension of 161.9 x 73.7 x 7.8mm body and is light as 186g.

The Google Pixel 4 Xl is the successor of Pixel 4 constructed by the use of very soft gorilla glass five backsides. It comes with a 6.3 inches P-OLED display and is way brighter than its predecessor. This phone has everything that Google has known since its inception.

Camera

The latest version of Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus, Galaxy S20 Plus, has been upgraded with the newest camera version. It has a large sensor for a better picture. The significant change that the Galaxy S10 Plus has survived in the Galaxy S20 Plus is its improvement in the camera department with a 64MP sensor against 12MP. The Galaxy S20 Plus also comes with a 3x optical zoom feature against 2x of Galaxy S10. It has four rear cameras.

There has been a shift of the rear camera block to top-left, which is very common in many of the 2019 and 2020 smartphones. The back of the phone is made up of glass that is not very comfortable to hold. The placement of the front camera blocks much of the screen.

Another essential feature of the Galaxy S20 Plus is the Time-of-flight (ToF) lens to sense the depth and to distinguish between the subject and the background with a 10MP selfie camera.

It has an improved camera with added Astrophotography shooting mode and a viewfinder. With the addition of a new telephoto camera, the photo can capture pictures from far away distance. The fingerprint scanner, which was once discovered by Google, is being replaced with Face unlock features in Pixel 4 XL, which is a similar Apple face lock.

With the primary camera of 12.2 MP and a selfie camera of 8MP + ToF 3D Sensor, the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus has few more points in its bag for having higher camera quality.

Processor

Added to these, there is an added feature of Radar-based motion-sensing technology. It distinguishes the wave gesture made by the user when the screen sleeps. These are the best and the worst sides of both smartphones. Let us now compare both of them and see if they are worth their prices.

Conclusion

The Galaxy S20 Plus is sleek with round edges and a single hole-punch, whereas Pixel 4 XL has a larger bezel that makes it a bit ugly. The S20 Plus has a bigger display screen of about 6.7 inches Dynamic AMOLED display against 6.3 inch AMOLED Pixel Display. Both the phones have similar sharpness though Pixel 4 XL has tiny edge pixels-per-inch. While S20 has a 120Hz refresh rate, the pixel has about 90Hz refresh rate.

Both the smartphone’s bodies are having a glass. That prevents cracks and scrapes with an IP68-rating for dust and water-resistance. The Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus has a better and faster processor of Snapdragon 865, while pixel has Snapdragon 855. Again S20 has more memory of 12GB against 6GB memory of Google Pixel 4 XL.

The Galaxy S20 has MicroSD card support, which is not available in Pixel 4 XL.

As far as the battery capacity is concerned, Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus has much battery capacity of 4500 mAh while Pixel 4XL has a battery capacity of 3700 mAh. Though Google Pixel has wireless and fast charging, it cannot surpass the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus in terms of battery capacity.

All New Arcade Mode On PUBG: Deathmatch In Smaller Maps With Eight Player Teams

Adding more to the arcade-style gameplay, PUBG brings in new features and attributes now and then. PUBG keeps the arcade gaming in the forefront while tweaking the gaming attributes and adding in new features. The arcade mode in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds’ brings in new deathmatch features like re-spawns and improved weapons.

One of the significant additions in the PUBG gameplay is the arcade mode, which allows the players to engage in action that is much faster than the old traditional patterns. The arcade mode involves the players in an eight-on-eight head-on match, which is killed or die.

Talking about the maps for arcade gaming, there are seven different maps. Each of these maps is a patch of an existing map in the PUBG game. Every round in the map lasts for about 10 minutes and allows unlimited re-spawns. Also, the restoring time for re-spawn is less than 5 seconds. It is excellent as compared to other such arcade gameplays.

There are no lockdowns in this mode, and also friendly fire is disabled. The team which reaches the maximum number of kills sooner that is 50 kills wins the match. It is deadly gameplay that does not allow the players too much to contemplate the strategy but to push ahead with full might.

Better than the standard royale mode, the arcade mode in PUBG has gained more popularity in a short span of time. Be it frag, smoke, or stun grenades, and the fuse time decreased to allow an increased number of charges.

The New Patch

The new patch for Arcade Mode in PUBG has also changed the earlier disadvantages of peeking and leaning. It has proven to be more exposed when players lean on their left than or their right. This gives more view to the opponent, but PUBG has fixed that too.

The collective parachute feature allows the players in each of the teams to land combined in a single region to enhance the gaming experience. At the same time, it also provides a quick response to the opponent teams.

The new patch has also seen several improvements in the friends’ list, match duration, performance, replay systems, and skins. With this, the players can easily modify their specifications in the game as per individual choices.

Also, the distortion effect in the blue zone has been adjusted and removed for more precise identification of the zone and edge. Updated visual shaders, sound effects have become more intense, providing the players with more concentrated and extreme gaming experience.

However, regarding the new patch and update, PUBG is still considering opinions and feedback from the community to tweak and change the features and attributes in the game.

How To Beat Android 20 In Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot

An action playing game, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, was founded by CyberConnect 2 and was published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The game is based on the Dragon Ball franchise and released on Jan 17, 2020.

The game was released recently for the Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One and had a single-player mode of action.

The Dragon Ball Z:

Kakarot acquired immense popularity, with 1.5 million copies being sold in its first week of release. This action game is based on the story of Goku, which is the main character of the game. It is similar to Dragon Ball Xenoverse. The game has four different accounts at different levels – Saiyan Saga, Frieza Saga, Android Saga, Majin Buu saga. Each saga has 7-8 levels.

The game comes with RPG focus. There are various activities within the game that the player can undertake, like eating food, exploring, etc. The Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot players confront the Android 20 in the Android saga of the game. Android 20 is coupled with various tricks to pull up its sleeves.

The Android 20’s primary attack is Photon Wave. This attack is characterized by the fact where Android 20 points at a red line before a beam hits ahead. At this stage, the Android 20 moves out of his to dive. At the Surge State of the Android’s 20, the Energy Balls appear. Since the balls fly at Piccolo, it is advised to keep a safe distance to ignore the projectiles.

Energy Drain trick

The Energy Drain trick is charged at Piccolo that drains up to 50,000 health of the player. The most distressing aspect of Android 20 is the ability of Android 20 to restore his health by the use of the Commence Absorption Mode, which has a white light that absorbs Ki blasts and heals it.

While the red light glows, it is advisable to keep a distance till the outpouring ends. Lastly, the counter-attack is a kind of kick that shuns and pushes the Piccolo back. This makes Android 20 free to take the moves like Photon Wave and is dangerous for the player.

The most important part of the fighting, which is seen from the moves, makes sure that Android 20, through these techniques, doesn’t heal. The second point in beating in Android 20 is to refrain from staying too long in melee range because this will stun or drain the Piccolo.

Therefore, to keep the game going for a long time in Android 20, the player should use Ki blasts and different super attacks to cut down Android 20 when the player is not in Absorption mode.

The most crucial point to be noted that while the player is in the Surge State of the Android 20, the move is represented by a red aura. This move represents more damage, and therefore it helps the player to check any attack. The most useful technique to beat in Android 20 is to use the special attacks from a distance.

Oppo’s All-New Patented Stylus: Calls Made Easier

Oppo has been bringing in new features and attributes to its smartphones often. It is never the one smartphone company that shies away from experimenting with its products and delivering extraordinary features to the users, be it in the camera, design, or any other aspect.

Recently, it has announced a smartphone that shall come packed with a stylus pen. It is the next patent Oppo filing, which will give the users an experience of how a stylus will look when incorporated in a smartphone.

Quite frankly, the design of the phone is not at all compromising, given the inclusion of the stylus pen in it. It has a unique look that almost gets merged with the body of the phone and does not have a pit to house the stylus pen.

Further Details

Speaking about the advantages of the all-new stylus pen, reports suggest that the stylus can also be used as a microphone for further ease of use for users. It can be used to both make and receive calls. It is a battery-powered stylus that will connect to the phone via Bluetooth. Furthermore, there are two multifunction buttons on the edge of the stylus pen, which users can use to control the volume during phone calls.

On the outside, the smartphone has a very slim bezel on its edges, but when it is attached, the bezel seems more extensive than usual. When the stylus is removed, only a small portion of the bezel remains, which acts as the selfie camera module and also other related sensors.

The pen tip of this new phone goes into the camera module slot, and the rest of the stylus links up using magnetic pins, which aid in charging the stylus along with the handset. When placed in the camera module, the buttons on the stylus pen face outward, which then assists in adjusting the ring volume of the phone.

Bottom Lines

Oppo has decided to launch this new handset anytime in the near future and test the all-new stylus pen feature. Earlier, Samsung has tried its hands in experimenting with stylus pens back in 2012. But with the ever reforming technologies, one would typically ask why is a stylus pen required for phone calls when Bluetooth devices have become majorly prevalent in the market.

However, it is also good to keep in mind that companies often come up with patent designs that take years to be rolled out to the market. Sometimes, these designs also remain unused by companies depending upon the market trends.
