It isn&rsquo;t unusual to see an update roll out right before a phone goes on sale, and the company spokesperson has confirmed that they are &ldquo;constantly working to optimise performance&nbsp;to improve the camera experience.&rdquo; It should be noted that the biggest selling point of the Samsung S20 Ultra is its 108-megapixel quad camera setup.

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy Fold 2 will reportedly be launched in August as per schedule despite the novel coronavirus pandemic that has shut several factories and events around the globe. According to a report by news website Korea Herald, Samsung has already begun making preparations. There&rsquo;s, of course, no official confirmation from the South Korean tech giant and it remains to be seen if there will be an online unveiling for the high-end Galaxy smartphones.

With many nations developing their own coronavirus contact-tracing apps to contain the spread of the pandemic, the European Commission has announced plans for a unified approach. It has asked the European countries&nbsp;to take a coordinated approach to ensure there are no privacy and data protection compromises and to further&nbsp; avoid &ldquo;the fragmentation of the internal market.&rdquo;

According to reports, Microsoft's Surface Neo along with its Windows 10X operating system will be delayed beyond their planned release date towards the end of 2020. The dual screen PC was showcased at an event last year, alongside the Android-powered Surface Duo, which so far seems to be on schedule for an end-2020 release. Reports claim the problem is Windows 10X, which is reportedly running late on development, setting back the launch of even the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold that was set to launch this year.

European prices for the upcoming OnePlus 8 series of smartphones have been leaked, just days ahead of their official launch on April 14. Reports claim the OnePlus 8 Pro is going be priced around &euro;929, or roughly ₹76,900 in Europe for the base variant, while the top-spec 12GB RAM model could cost as much as &euro;1,019 or roughly ₹84,400. The OnePlus 8, on the other hand, could cost nearly &euro;729 or around ₹60,400 for the 8GB model, and &euro;829 or ₹68,700 for the 12GB top-spec model. It's worth noting that the OnePlus 7T starts from around &euro;599 or roughly ₹49,600 in Europe, while the 7T Pro starts from &euro;759 or around ₹62,900. These prices are definitely higher than earlier models, but CEO Pete Lau recently confirmed that the series won't be priced over $1,000.

WABetaInfo has detailed new features available in the latest WhatsApp beta update for Android. The popular messaging service adds the ability to quickly search for any type of media, and specifically search for documents, links, GIFs, videos, or audio files. Besides Advanced Search, WhatsApp will also automatically download frequently forwarded images, videos, documents and voice messages. The chat app might also allow protecting your backups with a password but there&rsquo;s no word on when all these features will land in the stable version of WhatsApp.

Chinese tech giant Huawei has launched its first OLED TV, the Smart Screen X65. The 65-inch smart TV comes with support for HDR10 format, a peak brightness of 1,000 nits, a refresh rate of 120Hz and a TUV Rheinland certification for eye protection. There&rsquo;s also a 14-speaker under-display sound system and a 24-megapixel pop-up camera that allows users to use the TV for video calls. The X65 runs on Huawei's proprietary HarmonyOS software and is powered by the Honghu 898 processor that&rsquo;s been tuned for OLED TVs. The premium smart TV packs a mammoth 6GB of RAM along with 128GB of internal storage and is available in China for &yen;24,999 (~₹2.7 lakh). There&rsquo;s no word on Huawei&rsquo;s plans to launch the Smart Screen X65 in India.

Zoom has announced that it has officially formed a security advisory council in light of privacy and safety concerns regarding its video conferencing software. One of the members of said security council is Alex Stamos, who served as Facebook's security chief from 2015 to 2018, and will accompany other third-party experts in helping Zoom with a comprehensive review of its platform. Zoom has recently been in the news for being an easy target for online miscreants, with Zoombombing, or intruding on private video calls causing a massive security concern.

In the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic, tech giant Facebook is partnering with the UK NHS to provide over 2,000 free Portal video calling devices to hospitals, care homes and hospices in the country, helping patients stay in touch with friends and family. Reports say around 50 Portals are already in use in Surrey, with more soon will be offered in London, Manchester and Newcastle. It's possible the interaction with loved ones would likely impact the patients' well-being, and is something the healthcare industry wants to monitor.

According to reports, Google has banned the popular video conferencing software Zoom for its employees, citing security vulnerabilities. The search giant warned its employees in an email last week that the chat app installed on their laptops would soon stop working. Zoom, a competitor to Google&rsquo;s own Meet app, has seen an explosion of individuals and organisations using it to conduct meetings remotely in an effort to minimise the coronavirus pandemic spread.

Streaming service Disney Plus has officially crossed 50 million subscribers since its launch in November last year. Launched initially in US, Canada and the Netherlands, the service has since expanded to countries like India, the UK, Germany, Italy, and Spain among others. In comparison, rival Netflix currently has 167 million subscribers, while Disney's Hulu streaming service exclusive to the US has 30 million. Disney Plus was launched in India on 3rd April, integrated with the Hotstar platform, with the Disney Plus Hotstar subscription costing ₹1,499 per year.

Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station is teasing an upcoming phone with 192-megapixel camera sensor and Snapdragon 765G processor that is set to launch next month. While the highest resolution camera sensor in a smartphone is of 108-megapixel, Samsung is reportedly working on a massive 150-megapixel nonacell sensor that is almost one-inch in size and can combine nine pixels together into a single pixel. Interestingly, chipset maker Qualcomm had last year announced that its high-end Snapdragon SoCs come with up to 192-megapixel camera support.

According to a Reuters report, India has asked both&nbsp;Facebook and TikTok to remove users found to be spreading misinformation about the novel coronavirus. It follows a report that identified a pattern of targeted disinformation in many social media videos that appeared to be aimed at Muslims. Separately, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology&nbsp;has asked social media sites to remove such content and to save details of uploaders which can later be shared with law enforcement agencies.

The biggest gaming show in the world -Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2020 will no longer be showcased through an online event after cancelling the physical one due to the ongoing novel coronavirus pandemic. The Entertainment Software Association (ESA) said they will be working with exhibitors to promote individual company announcements.

Taiwan has barred all official use of Zoom, becoming one of the first governments to impose an outright ban on the popular video-conferencing app over mounting security and privacy concerns. The island&rsquo;s cabinet said in a statement that the agencies should rather use alternatives, including software from Google and Microsoft. Individuals and organisations around the world are using the app to conduct meetings remotely in an effort to minimise the coronavirus pandemic spread.

After much waiting, Chinese smartphone maker OnePlus has announced its Warp Charge 30 Wireless charging technology. It claims to provide an output of up to 30W, that will presumably charge upcoming wireless-charging compatible OnePlus smartphones from 1% to 50% in just 30 minutes. The announcement confirms the possibility at least some of the new OnePlus series, set to be announced on April 14, will be fitted with this wireless charging technology.

Sony has unveiled its next generation PlayStation 5's DualSense controller, that boasts of a built-in mic and adaptive triggers. There's a new dual-tone design on offer, and the light bar from the PS4 controller now borders the touchpad. The share button has been replaced with Create, but what it does is still a mystery. The controller seems to be charged via USB Type-C, and the triggers are expected to have haptic feedback. The accompanying console, however, is yet to be unveiled, but the PS5 is still on track to be released towards the end of 2020.

According to reports, Samsung's Galaxy Fold 2, the successor to the company's first foldable smartphone, might be brought in with a base 256GB of storage to lower prices in a bid to attract more customers. The Galaxy Fold was launched last year in a single 512GB storage variant that currently costs ₹1,73,835 in India, while the cheaper Galaxy Z Flip at ₹1,15,890 is still the company's cheapest foldable smartphone. The Fold 2 is also rumoured to sport both larger inner and outer displays along with a hole-punch notch, and could see a Q3 2020 launch. Reports claim the Z Flip is also due to get a 5G variant, that could be unveiled sometime later this year, but only in select markets.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has announced that he will be donating $1 billion worth of equity he holds in digital payments platform Square towards Covid-19 relief worldwide. Dorsey, who is also the&nbsp;CEO of Square, said in a tweet that the sum is around 28% of his near $3.6 billion current net worth. The donation will be made through his Start Small fund, which will focus on girl's health and education and Universal Basic Income after dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic.

To help the World Health Organisation tackle the Covid-19 pandemic, social media platform snapchat has launched a new Augumented Reality-based donation lens. Through snapchat, users across 33 countries can scan 23 international currency notes and this will provide a visual display of how donations are being used by the WHO, gain an insight into research&nbsp;and more. In addition to that, users can donate directly to WHO's&nbsp;COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund. Media publishers, on Snapchat's discover page who cover Covid-19 news, will have a swipe-up-to-donate feature. In March, Snapchat&nbsp;added mental health tools to help those with coronavirus anxiety.

Chinese smartphone maker OnePlus has said that it will be holding an online pop-up event in Europe that will give a select few the chance to buy the OnePlus 8 series smartphones before its general sale. There&rsquo;s no clarity whether such an event will take place in India due to the countrywide lockdown to contain the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. The company had earlier confirmed the launch of OnePlus 8 series smartphones in an online-only event on April 14, which will be livestreamed via the OnePlus website and official YouTube channel.
