A few years ago we tested the Infinix Concept Phone 2021, which offered impressive 160W charging and had an electrochromic film on the back. That film allowed the phone to change color from slate gray to steel blue. Now the company is back with a new prototype technology, called E-Color Shift. This is a more advanced version of the same idea – the back of the phone can change colors, except this time there are more colors to choose from and the back is divided into individual segments (the color of each segment can be…

With February almost over, we’re entering iPad Pro OLED launch territory. Apple will unveil the next-gen iPad Pro models at some point in March, according to reports. The highly-anticipated iPad Pro refresh will bring a few significant upgrades. We’re not just looking forward to the M3 chip. The new generation of iPad Pro tablets will be Apple’s first to feature OLED screens. Word on the street is that these iPad Pro OLED screens will be thinner and lighter than ever. They’ll feature new two-stack tandem…

The long-awaited foldable iPhone may be further away than otherwise thought, but there’s a silver lining that may come in the form of a tablet. As reported by Digitimes, Taiwan-based sources say “Apple has been developing foldables for the past five years, and its first foldable product will not be a smartphone. It will instead be a larger device.” Digitimes cites a report stating that while Apple has been unhappy with screen quality up until this point for its foldable iPhone project, a larger foldable iPad or MacBook…

CAG added that the necessary installation and maintenance processes must comply with aviation safety and security requirements, including fire safety code mandates from the Singapore Civil Defence Force.The rooftop and airfield sites collectively are expected to generate enough solar energy to power more than 10,000 four-room public housing flats annually. This will also cut the airport group's carbon emissions by some 20,000 tonnes every year, or 10% of its consumption in 2019. Also: Singapore keeping its eye on data…

It was rumored for quite some time that Samsung might start sourcing panels for its OLED TVs from LG Display. Samsung Display's focus has largely remained on making OLED panels for mobile devices, thus requiring Samsung Electronics to look elsewhere for larger panels required for its new lineup of OLED TVs. The Samsung and LG Display deal was officially announced last year. Samsung would be sourcing LG Display's WRGB OLED panels for its televisions. It was also reported recently that the two companies have now extended…

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com Europe is installing more solar panels than ever before, thanks to a flood of cheap Chinese solar panels, driving installations by 40% last year. But it comes at a hefty cost: Local solar manufacturers are on the brink of a total collapse that could happen within weeks. The European Union is considering what steps to take, in that some 95% of solar panels and parts used in the EU are coming from China, according to International Energy Agency data,…

Other testing in more intense conditions has found less positive results, with one academic study finding that perovskite cells in hot and humid Saudi Arabia lost 20% of their efficiency after one year of operation.  Those results are for one year of testing. How can we tell what will happen in 30 years?  Since we don’t have years to test every new material that scientists dream up, researchers often put them through especially punishing conditions in the lab, bumping up the temperature and shining bright lights onto…
