We have had two sorts of iPhones – make that “at least two sorts of iPhones” – over the past half-decade or so. A sort of compact iPhone, and at least one larger one. And while the larger iPhone had the larger display and (sometimes) better cameras, its biggest asset for many users was actually its larger battery....

Why are these such a no-brainer at that price? Well, they were launched at a price of Rs 14,999 in mid-2018, and even then were seen as potential AirPod killers. And although they have been succeeded by the much-acclaimed Elite 75T, they remain an excellent pair of truly wireless earphones. And at that their sub-Rs 5,000 price, are way ahead of anything the competition has to offer. In fact, their official price listing on the Jabra India site remains at Rs 11,999....

For instance, someone traveling abroad can use the VoIP calling to contact the driver, which is comparatively less expensive than a cellular call....

Well, there are a few things that separate the game from the usual, run-of-the-mill word games. For starters, it is not an app, which may seem absurd in today’s app-centric climate but is played on a browser. Another very interesting thing about Wordle is that you only get one puzzle a day, which is again a little strange considering how all apps and games want users to spend as much time as possible on their platform....

In simple terms, at a time when most brands are chasing the “one big sensor with less powerful sensors around it” formula, the Mi 11 Ultra is perhaps the first non-Cupertino phone in recent times that lets you switch between three powerful sensors, without any major compromise in image quality or resolution. Xiaomi has insisted on calling all three cameras “primary,” and we can see why. You literally can shoot from any of them and be assured of using very good hardware in phone camera terms....
