Apple iPhone 12 series to launch in October!!!


As Apple confirmed that its upcoming iPhone 12 series would not launch in September, the iPhone maker is now said to hold the launch event in October. The India availability of new iPhone models in India happens typically a week after they become available in the US. 

It should be noted that several industry analysts had earlier predicted that the iPhone models launching in 2020 would get delayed. The tech giant has not specified further details about the delay in the launch. However, Apple's announcement came soon after global chip making giant Qualcomm indicated at a brief delay in the launch of the iPhone 12 line up that could comprise four new models. Akash Palkhiwala, Qualcomm CFO had suggested the delay and said: “a slight delay that pushes some of the units out from the September quarter to the December quarter for us.”


iPhone 12 range will be announced on the week commencing October 12 (which might mean an announcement on Tuesday, October 13, since Apple often unveils things on a Tuesday.)Pre-orders for the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Max would apparently then open on the same week - probably Friday, October 16 based on Apple's past form. After that, the phones would apparently ship on the week commencing October 19. However, the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max apparently won't be up for pre-order or ship until sometime in November. Usually, we'd have said September is almost certainly when we'd see the phones, and in past years it has often been the second week of the month. New iPhones are almost always unveiled on a Tuesday, and with that in mind, September 8 makes sense.

New iPhone 12 :



Indeed, one of the latest reports on the matter, which comes from “multiple suppliers in China”, suggests that the iPhone 12 range won't be announced until late October, with the 4G models hitting stores shortly after, while the 5G iPhone 12 models won't go on sale until November.
On the other hand, a source has now suggested that it's actually the 5G models that will land first, with the 4G ones potentially not arriving until early 2021, so we're not sure what's accurate there. Another rumor states that mass production of the iPhone 12 range was between four weeks and two months behind schedule, which could mean a big delay, though Apple is apparently doing everything it can to minimize the delay. Meanwhile, other rumors suggest Apple finished its final testing by the end of June and entered mass production in July, which sounds more promising.
Apple's comment isn't particularly specific, and that may just be referring to when the phones go on sale. The bulk of the rumors seem to point to a delay of between one and two months, so October or November is looking likely - though the phones may well be announced before then.

Google Camera 7.5 changes the file naming scheme and stops saving portrait photos in separate folders

Google Camera 7.5, the latest version of the camera app for Google Pixel smartphones, had earlier been spotted throwing around hints for the Pixel 4a 5G  and Pixel 5, alongside hints for features such as audio zoom, expanded social share, and more camera modes. The same version of the app also brings around some more changes, notably a change in the file naming scheme for photos and finally stopping the behavior for saving portrait photos in a separate folder. In Google Camera 7.5, portrait photos will no longer be saved into their own folders, which is a move that is likely to be appreciated by everyone. On older versions, any portrait pics that you clicked would be saved inside individual folders within the DCIM/Camera directory, which was frankly a terrible implementation. Using most gallery solutions would mean that you had to venture into each individual folder to check out the images, plus your photos would not show up chronologically, and deleting the pictures would still le...
