Moto E30 unveiled: a Moto E40 but with Android 11 Go Edition

Moto E30 unveiled: a Moto E40 but with Android 11 Go Edition There is already a Moto E20 and a Moto E40, is there something in between? There is now – the Moto E30 quietly appeared on Motorola Slovakia site as well as Aldi in Belgium. This phone has mostly the same hardware as the E40, save for a couple of important limitation.

Motorola Moto E30

This is an Android 11 Go edition phone, just like the E20 and it has 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB storage. But that is pretty much where the similarities between the two end.

iFixit: replacing an iPhone 13 screen at a third-party repair shop disables Face ID

iFixit: replacing an iPhone 13 screen at a third-party repair shop disables Face ID With the iPhone 13 series Apple made the Face ID notch smaller. However, one change that was not publicized is that the each phone’s screen panel is linked to the Face ID system – if you replace the screen, Face ID will stop working.

The culprit is a Tic Tac sized chip that now lives on the flex cable connecting the screen to the motherboard. There was no such chip before, so this wasn’t an issue. Of course, official Apple repair centers and shops that are part of Apple’s Independent Repair Program have access to proprietary tools that reprogram the chip to accept the new screen.

The sixth gen iPad mini had a profound jelly scroll effect where one side of the display refreshes slower than the other side. We also noticed this in our iPad mini review. Apple dubbed this behavior as normal though plenty of users disagreed and a ProMotion display will certainly help fix this problem.

The rest of the hardware for the…

Xiaomi introduces Loop LiquidCool tech, promises to double the cooling efficiency of vapor chambers

Xiaomi introduces Loop LiquidCool tech, promises to double the cooling efficiency of vapor chambers Smartphone chipsets keep getting faster year after year, but despite continued improvement in silicon nodes, they keep running hotter too. This is why cooling solutions have become a major factor with vapor chambers (aka heat pipes) being a common part of the cooling stack.

Xiaomi has developed the Loop LiquidCool technology that improves on basic heat pipes in two ways and the result is double the cooling efficiency. This technology is expected to appear in Xiaomi products in the second half of 2022.

Here’s how it works (look at the chart above). Heat from the chipset causes liquid…
