Apple is releasing a free software update that will inject its first dose of artificial intelligence into its iPhone 16 lineup as the trendsetting company tries to catch up with technology's latest craze. The upgrade to the iOS 18 operating system on Monday arrives more than a month after four iPhone 16 models equipped with the special computer chip needed to power the AI features went on sale at prices ranging from $800 to $1,200. Last year's premium models — the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max — also possess a processor that will enable the AI technology after the software update is installed. Recent versions of Apple's iPad and Mac computer also can be updated with the software. Countries outside the U.S. won't be getting the AI software for their iPhones until next year at a date still to be determined. Apple spent the past five weeks testing the AI software among an audience of iPhone owners who signed up to help the company fine tune the technology. The AI infusion is supposed to transform Apple’s often bumbling virtual assistant Siri into a more conversational, versatile and colorful companion whose presence will be denoted by a glowing light that circles the iPhone’s screen as requests are being handled. While Apple is promising Siri will be able to perform more tasks and be less prone to becoming confused, it won’t be able to interact with other apps installed on the iPhone until another software update comes out at a still-unspecified date. Other AI features included in this software update will handle a variety of writing and proofreading tasks, summarize the content of emails and other documents. The AI also will provide a variety of editing tools to alter the appearance of photos and make it easier to find old pictures. Other AI tricks still to come in future software updates will include the ability to create customized emojis on the fly or conjure other fanciful imagery upon request. Apple also plans to eventually enable its AI suite to get a helping hand from OpenAI’s ChatGPT when users want it. Most of the AI features Apple introduced Monday are already available on Android-powered smartphones that Samsung and Google released earlier this year. In an effort to distinguish its approach from the early leaders in AI, the iPhone’s suite of new technology is being marketed as “Apple Intelligence.” Apple is also promising its AI features will do a far better job protecting the privacy of iPhone owners by either running the technology on device or corralled in a fortress-like data center when some requests have to be processed remotely. Because most iPhones currently in use around the world don’t have the computer chip needed for Apple’s AI, the technology is expected to drive huge demand for the new models during the holiday season and into next year, too. That’s the main reason why Apple’s stock price has soared 18% since the Cupertino, California, previewed its AI strategy at a conference in early June. The run-up has increased Apple’s market value by about $500 billion, catapulting it closer to becoming the first U.S. company to be worth $4 trillion. Apple will give investors their first glimpse at how the iPhone 16 is faring Thursday when the company posts quarterly financial information for the July-September quarter — a period that includes the first few days the new models were on sale. Demand for the high-end iPhone 15 models ticked upward as prices for them fell and the excitement surrounding Apple’s entrance into the AI market ramped up, according to an assessment of the smartphone market during the most recent quarter by the research firm International Data Corp. Apple’s iPhone shipments rose 3.5 percent from the same time last year to 56 million worldwide during the July-September period, second only to Samsung, according to IDC. The question now is whether Apple’s gradual release of more AI will cause owners of older iPhones to splurge on the new models during the holidays, “future-proofing their purchases for the long term,” said IDC analyst Nabila Popal. Also on Monday, Apple said that with the software update some AirPods wireless headphones can be used as hearing aids. An estimated 30 million people — 1 in 8 Americans over the age of 12 — have hearing loss in both ears. Millions would benefit from hearing aids but most have never tried them, according to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders.

The Xiaomi Redmi 14C, released in August 2024, promises impressive features for budget-conscious buyers. But does it live up to expectations? Let’s find out. Key Features of Xiaomi Redmi 14C . Design and Build Quality The Xiaomi Redmi 14C boasts a sleek and minimalist design with an 8.2 mm slim body, making it comfortable to hold and use. The phone features a glass front, plastic frame, and either a glass or silicone polymer (eco-leather) back, offering a range of tactile experiences.  Weighing between 204 to 211 grams, Redmi 14C feels heavier than the slightly lower-priced options like the Infinix Hot 40i (190g) and Tecno Spark 30C (187g). Each of them is available at the official price of 13,999 TK.  Though both of these phones feature plastic frames and backs, they lack the eco-leather option that the Redmi 14C offers. Xiaomi’s design feels slightly more premium. Overall, the Redmi 14C’s design is practical yet elegant, suitable for smartphone users who prioritize style and durability. Read more: Vivo V40 Review: A Feature-Packed Premium Smartphone Display Quality The Redmi 14C comes with a 6.88-inch IPS LCD screen that supports a 120Hz refresh rate. This ensures smooth scrolling and a more immersive viewing experience, whether you are gaming, watching videos, or browsing.  The 720 by 1640 pixel resolution, while not full HD, offers clear and vibrant visuals, enhanced by 450 nits of brightness and 600 nits for high brightness mode (HBM). This makes the phone usable even under direct sunlight, although it falls short in sharpness compared to Full HD displays. The Tecno Spark 30C and Infinix Hot 40i feature HD+ resolution but lower display sizes than the Redmi 14C. In display performance, Redmi 14C outshines Infinix Hot 40i offering a 90Hz refresh rate. Performance Powered by the Mediatek Helio G81 Ultra chipset with an octa-core CPU, the Xiaomi Redmi 14C ensures stable and smooth day-to-day performance. It features two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 2.0 GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores at 1.8 GHz, making it capable of handling multitasking, app loading, and other common tasks efficiently.  Read more: ZTE Blade A35 Review: Top Budget Smartphone for Everyday Use The Tecno Spark 30C, on the other hand, features the Helio G81 chipset, providing nearly identical performance in multitasking and app management. The Infinix Hot 40i, with its Unisoc T606 chipset, offers a slightly lower performance level, particularly when dealing with more intensive tasks or high-demand apps. Gaming Performance While the Redmi 14C is not marketed as a gaming phone, its Mali-G52 MC2 GPU and 120Hz display make casual gaming enjoyable. Games like Asphalt 9 and Call of Duty: Mobile run relatively smoothly at low to medium settings, though users may experience minor frame drops in more graphically intense moments. Extended gaming sessions are possible without significant overheating issues, although some heat buildup is expected. The Tecno Spark 30C offers a similar gaming performance with an almost similar chipset and the same GPU, while the Infinix Hot 40i lags behind due to its less powerful chipset. Gamers on a tight budget might prefer the Redmi 14C or Tecno Spark 30C for a more fluid experience. Read more: Samsung Galaxy A06 Review: Budget-friendly Smartphone with Impressive Features Camera Performance The Xiaomi Redmi 14C has a 50 MP (f/1.8) dual-camera system, a 2 MP (f/2.4) depth sensor, and a 0.08 MP auxiliary lens. This setup allows the phone to capture detailed photos in good lighting conditions, with decent colours and sharpness.  Its front-facing 13 MP (f/2.0) camera performs well for selfies, especially with its built-in beautification features and night mode for low-light conditions. Redmi 14C can capture maximum of 1080 footage at 30fps with both rear and front cameras. On the other hand, the Tecno Spark 30C also offers a 50 MP main camera but lacks some AI enhancements in Xiaomi’s camera software. The Infinix Hot 40i also features a 50 MP main sensor but tends to fall short in low-light conditions and photo sharpness.  However, Hot 40i offers a 32MP (f/2.2) selfie shooter which is undoubtedly more powerful than the Redmi 14C’s 13MP and Spark 30C’s 8MP front shooters. Read more: Benco V91 Plus Review: Budget-friendly Smartphone for Everyday Use Battery Life A major selling point of the Redmi 14C is its 5160 mAh battery, which provides excellent longevity. On a full charge, the phone can easily last a full day of heavy use, including gaming, social media, and video playback. The phone also supports 18W fast charging, which gets you back up and running fairly quickly. The Tecno Spark 30C and Infinix Hot 40i both come with slightly smaller 5000 mAh batteries, but the difference in capacity is minor. All three phones feature 18W fast charging, so the Redmi 14C offers a slight edge in battery life, but not by a huge margin. Software and User Interface Running on Android 14 with Xiaomi's HyperOS, the Redmi 14C provides a clean and user-friendly experience. The interface is highly customisable and comes with various features tailored to Xiaomi devices, such as battery optimisations and privacy tools. However, some users might find the bloatware a bit overwhelming, though most of it can be removed. Tecno Spark 30C sports Android 14 HiOS, while Infinix Hot 40i runs on Android 13 XOS. These skins are feature-rich but can sometimes feel bloated, making the Redmi 14C's HyperOS a more refined and smoother experience for users who prefer a lighter, more responsive UI.

The ZTE Blade A35, released in September 2024, is an affordable smartphone packed with essential features for entry-level users. In this review, we’ll look at the key specs of the ZTE Blade A35 and see how it stacks up against its competitors in the budget smartphone market. Key Features of ZTE Blade A35 Design and Build Quality The ZTE Blade A35 offers a sleek polycarbonate body with a 3D curved-line texture that enhances grip and aesthetics. It is lightweight and durable, making it a solid choice for those who want a phone that can handle everyday wear and tear. Available in Starry Black and Clover Green, the A35 has a stylish look despite its highly affordable price range. In comparison, within a slightly lower price range, the Itel A50C has a bulkier design, weighing 192.6 grams, and lacks the refined texture of the Blade A35. The other competitors ZTE Blade A54 and Symphony Atom 5, also feature plastic bodies, but with slightly different finishes. Within the 10000TK price range, the Blade A54 has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, offering a more modern feel. While the Symphony Atom 5, within around 8500 TK price range, is also slim and light but lacks the Blade A35’s textured grip. Read more: Samsung Galaxy A06 Review: Budget-friendly Smartphone with Impressive Features Display The ZTE Blade A35 has a 6.75-inch IPS LCD (720 by 1600 pixels) with a 90 Hz refresh rate. This provides a decent viewing experience that is suitable for everyday tasks like watching videos or browsing social media. However, the 720p resolution is standard in this price range and performs well for most users. The Itel A50C has a slightly smaller 6.56-inch water drop HD display with a similar resolution, offering a comparable viewing experience. However, the ZTE Blade A54 falls behind with its 6.6-inch IPS LCD screen.  Camera Performance The ZTE Blade A35 features an 8MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera. While these cameras can capture decent shots in good lighting, low-light performance is subpar, which is typical in this segment. The camera comes with features like night mode and panorama for enhanced photo quality. Read more: Benco V91 Plus Review: Budget-friendly Smartphone for Everyday Use The Itel A50C has a similar 8MP main camera and 5MP selfie camera, performing almost identically to the Blade A35. However, the ZTE Blade A54 offers a 13MP rear camera, providing better image quality, especially in daylight. On the other hand, Symphony Atom 5 stands out with a 52MP UHD rear camera, delivering the best photo quality among these phones.

The Samsung Galaxy A06, released in August 2024, is the latest addition to Samsung’s A-series, delivering great value for budget-conscious users. Packed with essential features at an affordable price, the Galaxy A06 offers solid performance without compromising on quality, making it one of the top budget smartphones in the market this year. From its competitive specs to user-friendly design, this phone is designed to meet everyday needs without breaking the bank.  Key Features of Samsung Galaxy A06 Design and Build Quality The Galaxy A06 sports a sleek design with a plastic back and frame, similar to other phones in this price range. It measures 167.3 mm by 77.9 mm by 8.0 mm, making it relatively compact for a phone with a 6.7-inch screen. The plastic construction, while durable, lacks the premium feel of higher-end phones like the Xiaomi Redmi 14R 5G, which has a more premium design with a glass front and back. The design remains largely unchanged compared to the Galaxy A05, with a waterdrop notch for the front camera and a clean rear panel housing the dual-camera setup. The side-mounted fingerprint sensor is a convenient addition, ensuring easy access without compromising on aesthetics. Read more: Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro+ Review: A Power-Packed Higher Mid-Range Smartphone Display The Samsung Galaxy A06 features a 6.7-inch PLS LCD with a 720 by 1600 resolution. While not as crisp as the 1080p screens on more expensive devices, the HD+ resolution provides acceptable clarity for casual use, such as browsing the web, watching videos, and scrolling through social media. The display’s 262 ppi pixel density means it will not be as sharp as the Xiaomi Redmi 14R 5G’s 120Hz display, but it is still sufficient for day-to-day tasks. Compared to the ZTE Blade V60 and the Tecno Spark 30C 5G, which also offer HD+ screens, the A06’s display performance is similar, though the Galaxy A06’s colours may appear slightly less vibrant due to the use of an IPS panel instead of AMOLED technology. Performance and Processor The Galaxy A06 is powered by the MediaTek Helio G85 12nm chipset, which includes an octa-core processor featuring a maximum 2.0 GHz clock speed. The graphic section is equipped with a Mali-G52 MC2 GPU. This setup provides reliable performance for most day-to-day activities, such as multitasking, light gaming, and running social media apps. However, when it comes to more demanding tasks like playing graphic-intensive games, the device may struggle with occasional lag. Read more: Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Review: Minimalist Design Meets High Performance? Compared to the Galaxy A05, which also features the Helio G85 chipset, there is no significant improvement in performance. The A06 is on par with both the ZTE Blade V60 and Tecno Spark 30C 5G, as they too feature similar mid-range processors. The Xiaomi Redmi 14R 5G, however, outperforms the Galaxy A06 with its Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset, offering a noticeable edge in speed and responsiveness. RAM and ROM Options The Samsung Galaxy A06 offers 4GB or 6GB of RAM, providing smooth multitasking. For storage, it comes with 64GB or 128GB of internal memory, expandable up to 1TB via a microSD card. This gives users ample space for apps and media.  These configurations are typical for budget-friendly phones, comparable to devices like the Tecno Spark 30C 5G and ZTE Blade V60. However, the A06’s microSD expandability makes it a convenient choice for those needing extra storage, though the Xiaomi Redmi 14R 5G handles RAM slightly better for heavier tasks. Read more: realme C61 Review with Price in Bangladesh Camera Capabilities The Galaxy A06 comes equipped with a dual-camera setup on the rear, featuring a 50 MP wide-angle lens and a 2 MP depth sensor. In good lighting conditions, the main camera performs well, capturing detailed and vibrant photos. However, the performance in low-light scenarios is less impressive, with noticeable noise and reduced sharpness. In comparison, the camera performance is nearly identical to that of the Galaxy A05, which also features a 50 MP primary sensor. The Xiaomi Redmi 14R 5G and Tecno Spark 30C 5G both feature similarly specced cameras, but Xiaomi’s better software optimisation gives it a slight advantage in terms of image processing. The 8 MP front-facing camera on the Galaxy A06 is sufficient for selfies and video calls, but it pales in comparison to the front cameras found in some mid-range competitors. Overall, while the camera setup is functional for casual photography, it is not designed for photography enthusiasts. Read more: Apple iPhone 16 Review: Can It Set New Standards for the Brand? Battery Life One of the standout features of the Samsung Galaxy A06 is its 5000 mAh battery, which provides impressive longevity. With moderate use, the battery can easily last a full day, and lighter users might even stretch it to two days between charges. This is a huge plus for users who rely on their phones for extended periods without access to a charger. The 25W fast charging feature ensures that the device can be charged quickly, which is an advantage over the ZTE Blade V60 and Tecno Spark 30C 5G, both of which support slower charging speeds. However, the Xiaomi Redmi 14R 5G edges ahead with a slightly larger 5160 mAh battery and better power optimisation. Gaming Performance In terms of gaming, the Galaxy A06’s MediaTek Helio G85 chip is capable of handling lighter games like Subway Surfers and Clash of Clans smoothly. However, more demanding titles like PUBG Mobile and Genshin Impact may require lowering the graphics settings to avoid lag. While playable, the gaming experience is not as fluid as you would find on more powerful devices like the Xiaomi Redmi 14R 5G, which is designed to handle heavier games more efficiently.

Read more: Benco V91 Plus Review: Budget-friendly Smartphone for Everyday Use Price of Samsung Galaxy A06 In Bangladesh, the price of Samsung Galaxy A06 starts at BDT 21,000 for the 4/128GB storage variant.  Verdict The Samsung Galaxy A06 is a solid choice for budget-conscious users looking for a reliable phone with decent performance, long battery life, and essential features. It is ideal for casual users, students, or those needing a secondary device. However, it may not satisfy heavy users, gamers, or those seeking 5G connectivity or high-end camera performance.

Similarly, the Infinix Smart 8 and Infinix Smart 8 Pro both feature 90Hz refresh rates, making them comparable in display smoothness. However, the Benco V91 Plus shines with its 500 nits of peak brightness, ensuring better outdoor visibility than its competitors. Design and Build Quality The Benco V91 Plus features a sleek design with a modern punch-hole display, which gives it a more premium look compared to the water-drop notch on the Benco V91. The phone is built with a plastic back and frame, weighing 193 grams and measuring 8.99 mm thick, giving it a sturdy and solid feel in hand. The phone's ergonomic design ensures comfortable handling, even during extended use.  In comparison, the Xiaomi Redmi A3 features a glass back and plastic frame, which adds a bit more elegance, but it also makes the phone more prone to smudges and fingerprints. Meanwhile, the Infinix Smart 8 and Smart 8 Pro focus on durability with textured plastic backs, which provide better grip and are less prone to damage from daily use. Overall, the Benco V91 Plus offers a balance between aesthetics and practicality, similar to its competitors. Read more: realme GT Neo 6 SE Review: Know the Pros and Cons Processor and Performance Powered by the Unisoc T606 octa-core processor, the Benco V91 Plus handles everyday tasks smoothly, from browsing and social media to basic multitasking. With 6GB or 8GB of RAM and virtual RAM options, it ensures fluid operation for general use. This marks a step up from the Benco V91, which had fewer RAM options and performed less efficiently in multitasking. The Infinix Smart 8 and Smart 8 Pro also run on the Unisoc T606, putting them on par with the Benco V91 Plus in terms of performance. The Xiaomi Redmi A3, however, uses the MediaTek Helio G36 processor, which provides decent performance for basic tasks but falls short when handling more demanding apps and games. Camera Setup The Benco V91 Plus features a 50MP AI triple rear camera, including a 50MP main sensor and two additional 2MP sensors for depth and macro photography. This is a notable improvement over the Benco V91, which had a more basic dual-camera setup. The 50MP camera on the V91 Plus captures clearer and more detailed photos, especially in good lighting conditions. Read more: Apple iPhone 16 Review: Can It Set New Standards for the Brand? When compared to the Infinix Smart 8 and Smart 8 Pro, which also feature 50MP primary cameras, the camera performance is quite similar, though the Infinix Smart 8 Pro offers slightly better low-light performance due to better image processing. On the other hand, the Xiaomi Redmi A3 only has an 8MP primary camera, which significantly lags in terms of image quality, especially in sharpness and detail. The 8MP front camera on the Benco V91 Plus delivers decent selfies, on par with the competition. The Xiaomi Redmi A3 also has an 8MP selfie camera, but it struggles more in low-light conditions compared to the V91 Plus. Battery Life The Benco V91 Plus is powered by a large 5000mAh battery, offering all-day usage on a single charge. With its 18W fast charging capability, it outperforms the Benco V91, which also had a 5000mAh battery but with slower charging speeds. Read more: Huawei Mate XT Ultimate Creates History with Triple-fold Design In comparison, both the Infinix Smart 8 and Smart 8 Pro also pack 5000mAh batteries, but the Smart 8 only supports 10W charging, which means it takes longer to charge compared to the Benco V91 Plus. The Xiaomi Redmi A3 has a similar battery capacity but lacks any fast charging features, further tilting the convenience factor in favour of the Benco V91 Plus. Gaming Performance The Unisoc T606 processor in the Benco V91 Plus performs well for light gaming, allowing casual titles like Subway Surfers and Candy Crush to run smoothly. More demanding games like PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty Mobile will run on lower settings but may experience occasional frame drops. This performance is on par with both the Infinix Smart 8 and Smart 8 Pro, as they all share the same processor and have similar RAM configurations. In comparison, the Xiaomi Redmi A3 with its MediaTek Helio G36 processor is less suitable for gaming, with more frequent lagging and frame drops, especially in graphically intensive games. This makes the Benco V91 Plus a better option for users who enjoy casual mobile gaming. Read more: Tecno Spark Go 1 Review: Does Affordability Compromise Quality?
