Samsung Electronics' revenue hits record high in 2021
Samsung Electronics, South Korea's tech behemoth, posted its highest revenue last year on solid global demand for semiconductors, the company said on Thursday.
Consolidated revenue gained 18.1 percent over the year to reach a new high of 279.6 trillion won (232.8 billion U.S. dollars) in 2021.
Operating profit soared 43.5 percent to 51.63 trillion won (43 billion U.S. dollars) in 2021, marking the third-highest figure in the company's history. Net income jumped 51.1 percent to 39.91 trillion won (33.2 billion U.S. dollars).
Read Telenor unveils 5 tech trends that will shape 2022
The record revenue was driven by the semiconductor business. Revenue in the chip-making unit amounted to 94.16 trillion won (78.2 billion U.S. dollars) last year, accounting for one-third of the total.
Samsung's fourth-quarter revenue also hit a quarterly high due to the expanded sale of premium smartphones, TVs and home appliances as well as the robust chip demand that offset the lower chip price.
Revenue advanced 24.4 percent from a year earlier to 76.57 trillion won (63.8 billion U.S. dollars) in the three months ending Dec. 31.

The mobile phone and networks business logged an operating profit of 2.66 trillion won (2.2 billion U.S. dollars) on revenue of 28.95 trillion won (24.1 billion U.S. dollars).
Overall market demand was driven in the fourth quarter by the strong year-end seasonality and the increased sale of premium smartphones, such as foldable lineup and Galaxy S series, while the sales of PCs, tablets and wearable devices also contributed to the revenue growth, according to Samsung.

Oppo Reno7 SE 5G Review: Can it rule the upper mid-range segment?
The Oppo Reno7 SE 5G was released on 17th December 2021 in China. The phone was released as a budget alternative to the Oppo flagship, the Reno7 5G. Interestingly, the Reno7 SE looks exactly similar to the Reno7. With a great camera, fast processor, and a large battery, the SE offers a lot on par with the Reno7. Let's take a deep dive into the details.
Oppo Reno7 SE 5G Key Specifications
Design and Build Quality
The design of the Reno7 SE is probably its strongest suit. The phone features a dual-glass design on the front and back. The stainless-steel frame is sandwiched between the two glasses. Oppo did not provide any certification of Reno7 SE’s back glass. During testing, it was found that the rear glass works great at deterring scratches.
Read Best Upcoming Smartphones in Bangladesh in February 2022
The rear camera series features the proprietary triple camera module mounted on a base. The rectangular base with its lighter hue adds a distinct look on the back. You will find a punch-hole display on the front of this latest OPPO phone. The phone has a considerable bezel which might feel like an eyesore by 2022 standard. However, these are some of the cost-cutting corners of the mid-range budget options.
The power button is situated on the right and the volume rockers lie on the left. Both the clickers have a tactile feel to them. In addition to that, there is a single bottom-firing speaker along with a USB Type-C port.
Display
Oppo has used the same display as the Reno7 on the Reno7 SE. The display is an AMOLED FHD+ 90 Hz panel. The 6.43 inches screen boasts a 409 ppi which makes for an impressive viewing experience.
Read Tesla Smartphone Model Pi: Leaked features, release date
The display is protected by Corning gorilla glass 5. Not to mention, this feature is a surprising addition at this price point. The display has an average brightness of 600 nits but it can go up to 800 nits under direct sunlight. The display provides a great viewing experience both indoors and outdoors.
The viewing angles are also very sharp. Unlike some of the previous Oppo models, there is not any kind of color shift here. The display supports HDR so media consumption would be an enjoyable experience.
Camera
Oppo has featured a triple camera sensor for the Reno7 SE. The main sensor is a 48 MP f/1.7 26 mm wide-angle shooter. This is a standard main shooter that is seen on other mid-range Oppo phones. In addition to that, there is a 2 MP f/2.4 macro shooter and 2 MP f//2.4 depth sensor included in the module. In testing, however, the macro and sensor felt fairly gimmicky. These are neither anything revolutionary nor something anyone will use daily.
Read MediaTek or Snapdragon Chipset: Who Will Win the Race in 2022?
But the main sensor does an excellent job here. It can take sharp and crisp images under direct sunlight. The images look bright with a decent amount of dynamic range in them. The images can retain natural colors which is a welcoming addition. The sensor performs better in artificial lighting and dark settings as well. But there are some noticeable grains in the images. And the night mode tends to overexpose subjects in artificial lighting.
The front-facing camera holds a 16 MP f/2.4 sensor. It is a wide-angle shooter which is similar to other Oppo phones in this price range.
The video quality is excellent thanks to the gyro-EIS. The phone can shoot at 4K at 30 fps or 1080 p at either 30, 60, or 120 fps.

Processor and Performance
Moving on to the processor of the phone. The Reno7 SE features MediaTek MT 6877 Dimensity 900 5G chipset built on the 6 nm architecture. The 6 nm architecture provides incredible power efficiency which allows Oppo to squeeze in a considerably small battery. More on that later. The octa-core processor comes in at 2 2.4 GHz Cortex-A78 and 6 2.0 GHz Cortex-A55 chipset configurations. The processor is coupled with the Mali-G68 MC4 GPU.
The processor held up strongly on a day to day usage. This is an upper mid-range processor from MediaTek, so it performs as expected. The processor can handle games without any issue. All the leading 3D titles like PUBG and Fortnite can be played on this device without a frame drop. Though the phone gets a bit hot after 30 minutes of continuous media playing or gaming, there would be no drastic battery drop.
The UI is powered by Android 11 with Oppo’s skin, the ColorOS 12 on top of it. To be fair, the ColorOS is a heavy skin that is not for everybody. It brings an iOS-like interface to android. Granted previous users will not have any issue adapting to it but it might take some getting used to for the new users. Regardless, the OS runs smoothly on the device and it does not bog down over time.

Battery and Charge Time
Oppo has included a 4500 mAh battery with the Reno7 SE. As mentioned above, this is a fairly small battery compared to other devices at this price point. But the defining feature here is the 6nm processor architecture. Even with 4500 mAh, the Reno7 comfortably gets through the day. Typical usage will see users get around 5 to 6 hours of screen on time which is fairly enough to get through the day.
On top of that, the phone features a 33W fast charging which can fully charge the phone in just over an hour. What is more, there is an option that allows reverse wireless charging.
Price of OPPO Reno7 SE 5G in Bangladesh
The Oppo Reno7 SE 5G has not been officially launched in Bangladesh yet. In the Indian market the expected price of OPPO Reno 7 SE 5G (8/128GB) is around Rs. 31,490. It is equivalent to BDT 36,150 (Conversion rate RS 0.87= BDT 1). However, after launching in Bangladesh, the exact price of this phone may vary due to diverse reasons like tax issues and company decisions.

Verdict
The Oppo Reno7 SE 5G is targeted as an upper mid-range phone. It is a perfect substitute for the pricier Reno7 5G. The phone performs exceptionally well for its international price. Especially the processor and the build quality are its strongest suit. However, Oppo could have done better on the camera segment. The camera module is effectively a single main shooter doing most of the work. Nevertheless, time will tell whether the official price of the Reno7 SE 5G in Bangladesh can provide a bang for the buck.

Telenor unveils 5 tech trends that will shape 2022
Telenor Research, a scientific research unit of Norwegian technology conglomerate Telenor Group, has unveiled the seventh edition of "Tech Trends," highlighting how technology and digitalisation can enable a green transformation which it believes will define the upcoming year.
Grameenphone revealed the research findings at an event in the capital Monday. The five anticipated tech trends for 2022 were revealed in a keynote and an expert reflection session.
The core impression of the predictions for 2022 revolves around global climate change and its impact on the ecosystem.
Read Vivo showcases tech trends for 2022
The trends predict how new-era advanced connectivity, climate-friendly energy-efficient modern hardware, edge cloud, and 5G technology will be more eco-friendly, increased demand for green job skills with institutions and digital learning platforms offering climate micro-degrees, an optimisation war between companies to make devices more energy-efficient and environmental-friendly, a surge in climate aware influencers and taking the next generation's expectations with importance to mitigate potential threats of the "great resignation."
The report also has three tips on how businesses can avoid this threat once the pandemic is over. The trends are primarily influenced by the ongoing global pandemic and its consequences.
Read Apple’s holiday iPhone sales surge despite supply shortages
Trend 1: Green clouds on the horizon
Due to the immense growth in data usage, there is higher energy demand. Hence, cloud computing has seen exponential growth, and also edge computing is expected to take over by an acceptable margin in the coming year.
"We predict that 5G networks worldwide will have the capability to do local breakout of data traffic to and from Edge data centres," said Bjørn Taale Sandberg, head of Telenor Research, during a virtual keynote presentation."
"Energy-efficient Edge data centres reachable from mobile devices over 5G networks will start popping up, at an increasing rate, in 2022. As a result, energy will also be saved in data distribution networks since part of the data traffic and electricity will be transferred locally only."
Read Realme 9 Pro Series soon to be launched globally
Trend 2: Big appetite for climate micro-degrees
With modern careers requiring employees and employers to be climate-friendly, there is a need to adapt to lifelong learning on sustainability. Environmental policy and regulation will also increase the demand for green job skills in 2022.
"A growing number of businesses will implement green micro-degrees and courses as part of their 'curriculum' to slake the green knowledge thirst among employees. The businesses that fail to facilitate opportunities to acquire green online learning credentials on-the-job risk being perceived as less attractive in the eyes of new talent," predicts Sandberg.

Trend 3: Optimise everything
The global need for greater energy efficiency has the chance to trigger the "optimisation of everything" battle between consumer electronic manufacturers.
Devices consuming electricity now outnumber humans by four, and they will become even more dominant in the future. "Since transforming our energy supply will take time, we need to optimise everything – not least the use of energy by our devices," warns Sandberg.
"Going forward, more companies will put enormous sums of money on the table to acquire the knowledge and assets needed to come out on top of the optimisation battle."

Trend 4: Here come the greenfluencers
It has become imperative for influencers to acknowledge the young people's climate engagement, especially through social media.
With the recent disappointments from the UN's Climate Conference (COP26) and a grim outlook in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report fresh in memory, there is now an expectation of seeing a new movement shape the world of social media, that is coined "greenfluencing."
"An undergrowth of climate-aware influencers and activists has emerged across niches on social media, and we believe their growing follower bases will be duly noticed by the influencer universe's established elite," explains Sandberg.
Read Walton brings new model of Toronggo Wi-Fi router
"Influencers who appear oblivious or indifferent to climate challenges will be perceived as outdated. Instead, followers will flock to influencers who demonstrate climate awareness regardless of niche. Marketers will turn their attention in the same direction."
Trend 5: Don't lose out on the 'lost generation'
With work-from-home and such trends reshaping organisational preferences and cultures, companies must take the next generation's expectations seriously to avoid facing great resignation.
During the continuation of the pandemic, it will be tough for the young to establish and grow a personal network and acquire a general understanding of the corporate lingo and culture, as forming new social relations using only digital communication is much more challenging.

"Many companies will in 2022 find that large groups of young employees who never got proper onboarding are likely to struggle – unless good leadership is exercised," says Sandberg.

Elon Musk is known for his intelligent and insane nature to all tech lovers. He has given proof of intelligence many times. He is the person who sees the end of something once it comes to his mind. Now, he is launching a phone; that is what rumors say. Tesla cars have already taken place in the world market. Rumors have started that now Tesla is bringing a phone named ‘Pi.’
Tesla’s Pi phone may have a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset. It will use satellite-based 5G technology. In other words, a Pi phone can use the internet through satellites in space! Further, Musk's current ongoing project Starlink is building that platform. Now, the Pi phone might connect with Starlink in the space platform as a useful device. The biggest advantage of a Pi satellite phone is that there will be no problem getting a network anywhere. The network will be available in any inaccessible area of forest, hill, sea. As the satellite does not interrupt with any weather related problem, there will be no problem in the communication of this phone even in the difference of day and night. Although the exact release date is not available yet, the phone might get released in 2022 in the USA.

Let’s get to know the details of Tesla’s Pi phone.
Features of Tesla’s Pi phone that Everyone is Talking About
There is no official news about the specifications of this phone. But it is assumed that the phone will surely come with all the common components such as 1-2 terabytes of storage, at least 16 GB of RAM, 6.5-inch AMOLED display, superior camera, and more. However, there will be some additional features that are yet to be offered by any phone company! What are those? Well, read on to know them.
Satellite Internet
SpaceX's space-based Internet service, Starlink, will be available on Tesla phones. There are even rumors that Tesla will use phones to set up bases on Mars. But to make this a reality, they will need to avoid relying on bulky antennas while also making sure the satellite phone works perfectly. However, it is rumored that the Pi phone will work great on Starlink base or the buildings that have a Starlink base. Moreover, it will also work on Tesla cars.

Vehicle Control
It is also rumored that Pi can also be used to control the Tesla car's basic functions such as locking and unlocking the car, media playback, summoning the car, and more. However, the phone must use this app to avail all those features. So, it is assumed that the phone will come with this app preinstalled.
If Tesla phones do not have the built-in Tesla app, it may have an operating system feature for easy access via external buttons or even the lock screens (if they really bring the phone). Tesla phone users will also get exclusive features in the Tesla app about the cars.
That being said, Pi will be able to use all the Tesla car’s features with complete freedom. Due to security concerns in Apple's phone, the features in the phone's app could not be fully enjoyed.

Solar charging
Since the phone will be used in space, it will also come with solar charging features aside from charging on a car or other power source. It is rumored that the Tesla Smartphone Pi will be provided with a special phone case that will be capable of solar charging.
Astrophotography
Nowadays many smartphones already offer AI features as well as powerful cameras that can brighten up the low-light ambient or night sky. The technology will be further advanced in Pi. By virtue of the extra-terrestrial focus of Elon Musk’s SpaceX, Tesla Smartphone will achieve groundbreaking improvements. Tesla Pi phones will have unprecedented features such as taking images of astronomical objects.
According to the rumor, the back of the Tesla phone will have a 108-megapixel camera with 4 lenses. In order to take pictures of something with low light, the current phones in the market take lights for a long time before clicking for the snap. But on a Pi Phone, you will be able to take pictures of the dark sky without any kind of long exposure. This will be the favorite item for astronomical photographers.

Cryptocurrency Mining
There is a rumor that Tesla’s Pi phone will have cryptocurrency mining features. As Elon Musk is a supporter of cryptocurrency, it is not surprising to have this feature on his own phone. It is also rumored that Tesla’s Pi phone will mine a new type of cryptocurrency called MarsCoin.
Neuralink Support
While the idea of a computer automatically communicating with another computer through the brain still seems sci-fi, Neuralink has already started working on this technology. Neuralink is working on the first neural implant that can be used to control any computer or mobile device just by thinking through the brain. For example, someone wants to watch YouTube videos. For this, the person doesn't have to operate by hand, and he will just need to express his desire to run YouTube; it will continue to run on the phone. Maybe the Pi phone made by Elon Musk will have the built-in technology of his company Neuralink.

Operating System
It is assumed that the Tesla phone will first run on the Tesla-branded version of Android. If the rumors are true, then the implantable brain-machine interface will be seen soon.
Price
Elon Musk's product means brand, so the price will be higher. However, the phone will be priced, keeping in mind the competitor’s price. It is expected that the price range of Tesla Smartphone Pi will be around $800-$1200 (BDT. 68746.71- BDT 103120.07). The conversion rate $1= BDT 85.93. However, the exact price will be known after the release of the phone.

So, it creates reasonable doubt whether the phone will have all those features or not. Is it really possible to have such a phone? Would it not be a modern fairy tale? However, Tesla already has some proven experience in other sectors. So, the Tesla Smartphone Pi may bring a dream come true.
