Verizon could carry OnePlus phones beginning in 2020

Verizon may soon carry OnePlus phones. According to Android Police, sources say Verizon and the Chinese manufacturer signed a deal and that the phones could arrive in 2020. It’s unclear which model (or models) that would include, but PhoneArena claims the OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Edition will be a Verizon exclusive in the US.

This is all still hearsay, though, as neither Verizon nor OnePlus have announced the partnership. Given that OnePlus is now available through T-Mobile and Sprint, a Verizon deal wouldn’t be entirely surprising. OnePlus is expected to unveil the 7T at a North American event on September 26th. With any luck, we’ll learn more about the rumored Verizon deal then.

Of course, the US trade war with China could put a damper on sales. The US plans to implement a 15 percent tariff on Chinese-made smartphones beginning this December. As Android Police points out, that could increase the base price of a 7 Pro by $100, making the phone a bit less attractive.

Windows 10 1903 is Now Having Problems with Network Adapters

Microsoft has acknowledged another problem in Windows 10 version 1903 where user’s are reporting that their network adapters suddenly stop working after installing a cumulative update.

In the Windows 10 Health Dashboard, Microsoft has stated that some Intel and Broadcom Wi-Fi adapters are having a compatibility issues with NEC computers and will cause the adapter to no longer work.

“Microsoft and NEC have found incompatibility issues with Intel Centrino 6205/6235 and Broadcom 802.11ac Wi-Fi cards when running Windows 10, version 1903 on specific models of NEC devices. If these devices are updated to Windows 10, version 1903, they will no longer be able to use any Wi-Fi connections. The Wi-Fi driver may have a yellow exclamation point in device manager. The task tray icon for networking may show the icon for no internet and Network & Internet settings may not show any Wi-Fi networks.”

Microsoft has not indicated what cumulative update is causing this issue, but as found by WindowsLatest, users have reported [1. 2] that their WiFi adapters started showing that they were not connected after installing the Windows 10 KB4515384 cumulative update.

“KB4515384 broke my Intel NIC. It kept reporting ‘disconnected’. I downloaded the Intel 24.0.0.11 drivers, and did a fresh install, but no luck…still disabled. I uninstalled the kb, and I’m back in business. I’m running Intel driver 12.18.8.22 successfully pre-update, if that helps anyone. Now, I sit and wait and hope MS fixes!”

While Microsoft has stated that this issue is only affected NEC computers, from the user’s reports it is also affecting WiFi adapters on motherboards such as X470 AORUS GAMING 7, MSI Gaming Pro Carbon X370, Gigabyte GA-AX370-Gaming 7, MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC, and MSI Gaming X470 M7 AC.

Even more confusing is that some of the users are exhibiting these issues on their LAN adapters and not just wireless adapters.

For now, though, Microsoft has issued a compatibility hold on affected devices so that they will not be offered the Windows 10 version 1903 update.

Microsoft posts workaround

As a workaround, Microsoft has stated that you can simply right-click the wireless adapter and select Enable to get the adapter working again.

“If you are using an affected device and you have already installed Windows 10, version 1903, you can mitigate the issue disabling then re-enabling the Wi-Fi adapter in Device Manager. You should now be able to use Wi-Fi until your next reboot.”

Unfortunately, this fix only works for that session and it will be disabled on the next reboot.

For those who wish to use the workaround, you can follow these steps:

Open the Network Status page by searching for Network Status in the Start Menu and selecting its search result when it appears.

When the Network Status page opens, click on Change adapter options as shown below.

A page will open showing all of the computer’s network adapters. Find the adapter that is not working, right-click on it, and select Enable as shown below.

Your adapter should work again until the next reboot, which will require you to perform these steps again.

For a complete fix, affected Windows 10 v1903 users will need to wait for a fix to be released by Microsoft.

Pixel 4’s latest leaks come with one disappointing news

Another day, another set of leaks for Google’s worst-kept secret of 2019. It’s probably for the best since fans will have an idea what they’re getting into before the day arrives. So far the leaks have been to everyone’s expectations, but that doesn’t mean there are no disappointing turns. In fact, even in this latest flood of new information, there is one small detail that makes the Pixel 4 look less competitive than this year’s late 2019 flagships.

The appearance of the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL is hardly any secret by now. Google even preempted those leaks by confirming that it will indeed be putting a square camera bump on its flagships this year. More than just renders, though, the past few days have been filled with leaks of actual functional units, most of them coming from Vietnam.

The Verge has been given yet another batch of live photos of the device showing off this year’s rendition of the black and white “Panda” design. Fans of that dual-tone theme might be disappointed to see a different spin on those colors. There’s also the top bezel that’s thicker than the bottom, giving it a rather unbalanced but look for the sake of more functionality.

These photos also reveal the specs of the phone, which is also no secret by now. In addition to the processors and cameras from the photos, XDA dives into the Google Camera app version 7.0 to see the capabilities the Pixel 4 will offer. That includes the earlier features like Audio Zoom as well as new AR-based ones like Measure Mode and a mysterious “McFly” Rewind Mode.

Moving to benchmarks, it seems that the Pixel 4 may have yet one more bad news for fans. In addition to just getting a Snapdragon 855, not the 855 Plus, it seems that Google’s flagships will be using a slightly older UFS 2.1 storageinside. The speed difference might not be night and day compared to UFS 3.0 but it does mean that the Pixel 4 will score lower in benchmarks compared to the likes of Samsung’s Galaxy phones.

iPhone 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max: 6 things you didn’t know about Apple’s new phones

Apple’s press event, where it debuted the iPhone 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max, came and went on Tuesday. And while a lot of noise was made about the handsets’ creepy-looking camera setups, the 11 Pro’s polarizing Midnight Green color and the obnoxiously termed “slofie,” there were a few other iPhone 11 features that flew under the radar.

It’s understandable why these details were overlooked — either Apple didn’t make them explicit during its keynote or the features, though useful, aren’t exactly “sexy.” Now that the dust has settled from the Tuesday’s hubbub, however, we can take a closer look at some of some small but interesting details about the iPhone 11 you might have missed.

The iPhone 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max have Wi-Fi 6

Similar to the Galaxy S10 Plus, the new iPhones have the next generation of wireless networking known as Wi-Fi 6. As CNET Senior Editor Ry Crist puts it, “Devices that support Wi-Fi 6 still speak that same Wi-Fi language to talk to each other — they just talk faster and more efficiently than before.”

Compared to Wi-Fi 5, Wi-Fi 6 “supports faster top transfer speeds; lets devices send more information with each individual transmission; lets routers and other access points service more devices at once; helps sensors and other wireless gadgetsconserve battery power by scheduling transmissions; and facilitates better, faster performance in dense, crowded environments like airports and stadiums.”

But you likely won’t see any perks in your iPhone 11 now. Wi-Fi 6 isn’t officially certified yet, and Wi-Fi 6 routers are expensive. And even if you do have one, your top speeds only reach whatever your service provider caps you off at anyway. Think of this tidbit as more like future-proofing your phone, instead of an immediate benefit.

They have an Ultra Wideband chip

Apple didn’t make a big deal about this feature during the keynote, but it does care enough to point it out on its product site. The company designed a new chip called U1 for “spatial awareness,” and it helps iPhones find other iPhones more precisely when they’re in close proximity.

Apple says this improves AirDrop, a service that lets iPhone users quickly share files with nearby iPhones. Starting Sept. 30 with the release of iOS 13.1, the new chip will allow you to “point your iPhone toward someone else’s, and AirDrop will prioritize that device so you can share files faster.”

Tantalizingly, Apple added that “that’s just the beginning.” Many believe that the U1 chip is actually laying the groundwork for a long-rumored Apple tile tracker.

iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max ship with 18W USB-C chargers

Though fast charging has been available to Android users for years, the feature will now be available to iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max users. Previously, Apple would include 5-watt chargers in the box, but the more premium iPhones will have an 18-watt USB-C charger and a USB-C-to-Lightning cable bundled with the phone. The new charger will apparently charge the iPhone 11 Pro up to 50% in 30 minutes, according to Apple.

They’re heavier this year

While the iPhone 11 and the iPhone XR weigh the same, the iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max are a tad heavier than their 2018 counterparts (the iPhone XS and XS Max, respectively). As you can see by the chart below, the 11 Pro weighs 11 grams (about 0.4 ounces) more while the 11 Pro Max weighs 18 grams more.

While you may not notice it in real life, especially if you don’t have one in each hand, CNET Senior Editor Scott Stein did say he noticed they felt denser compared to last year’s models during his brief hands-on with them. The added weight is likely due to the extra camera lens and the bigger battery.

iOS 13.1 is coming 11 days after iOS 13

Apple’s latest OS, iOS 13, will be available for download on Sept. 19. And since the iPhone 11 phones ship out on Sept. 20, you can be sure that they will already have iOS 13 right out of the box.

An update to iOS 13, known as iOS 13.1, will come out 11 days later, on Sept. 30. We’re not sure what exactly this small update will include, although we do know that iOS 13.1 will enable the aforementioned U1-powered AirDrop feature.

iPhone 11 says goodbye to 3D Touch for good

Apple began to phase out its 3D Touch feature last year, starting with the iPhone XR. Debuting in 2015 in the iPhone 6S, 3D Touch allowed you to access additional menu options and commands by hard-pressing your finger against the screen. Now, however, the feature is absent on all three new iPhone 11s.

Instead, the company replaced 3D Touch with Haptic Touch. Haptic Touch works relatively the same way, except instead of having to press down harder on the screen, you’ll need to merely long-press on the item. This confirmed rumors that have been floating around since last year, about Apple ditching the technology for either its 2018or 2019 iPhone lineup, according to MacRumors.

At Just $329, Apple’s New iPad May Finally Replace Your Laptop

Ever since its inception, the iPad has operated in the liminal space between toy and tool. Great for streaming movies and casually browsing, it’s never quite been enough to replace a laptop. Apple’s newest iPad may change that.

At its event in Cupertino this month, Apple revealed the specs on its newest entry-level tablet. The 7th-generation model will feature a 10.2-inch Retina display, A10 Fusion chip, smart connector for a full-sized keyboard and a host of cool new multitasking features in iPadOS.

The net effect: an iPad that’s significantly more powerful than its predecessors — possibly enough so to fill the needs of light laptop users. What’s more, the price is set at a reasonable $329. (Apple’s compatible iPad keyboard will run you an additional $160.)

Will the extra utility and approachability of Apple’s entry-level iPad make the Pro somewhat less appealing? Time will tell…
