79% Oppo Reno2 Z Smartphone Review: Pseudo quad-cam phone with ups and downs

MediaTek Helio P90 smartphone. The Oppo Reno2 Z is a slightly lower-end version of the Reno2. However, our measurements indicate grave differences between the two Oppo phones - more than one might think from a quick glance at the specifications. In this review of the mid-range smartphone, we determine whether the Reno2 Z still receives our recommendation.

Two-decade old SETI@home project going down at the end of the month

This might have passed under the radar of many people, but the fact that the volunteer computing part of the 21-year-old SETI@home project will go into hibernation is quite big news, especially since this amazing effort did not manage to deliver any solid result. However, SETI@home might be reactivated one day.

Rumor | Intel's upcoming 6nm and 3nm Xe GPUs to be built by TSMC following the 10nm debacle

Intel is reportedly abandoning its own 10nm process in favor of TSMC for upcoming Xe GPUs, according to Tech News Taiwan sources. The rumor underscores indications that Intel's 10nm process is doing poorly, something Team Blue's CFO recently discussed on record.

Rumour | Sony WH-1000XM4: Bluetooth 5.0 and 40 hours of battery life with NC on, but no aptX or aptX HD support?

The WH-1000XM4 has been a long time coming, with it being almost eighteen months since Sony announced the WH-1000XM3. The WH-1000XM4 was expected to be unveiled at CES 2020 and now a listing for the ANC headphones has appeared on Anatel Certification, the Brazilian version of the FCC. The listing not only offers the first sighting of the WH-1000XM4, but also specifications for Sony's next-generation headphones. Sadly, it seems that there is no room for the aptX or aptX HD Bluetooth codecs.

Intel Comet Lake-H Core i7-10750H and Core i5-10300H pay a visit to PassMark — seem to offer nearly 40% and 17% gains over their predecessors, respectively

Intel's upcoming 45W 10th gen Comet Lake-H processors, the Core i7-10750H and the Core i5-10300H, have surfaced on the PassMark benchmarking site.

The gains brought forth by the Core i5-10300H are comparatively modest when compared to the Core i5-9300H.

2K's departure from GeForce Now is another blow for the fledgling service but Epic Games offers a well-timed lifeline

Nvidia’s GeForce Now cloud-gaming service has only been officially operational to the public since February 2020 and has already fallen foul of some disgruntled game publishers. Activision Blizzard and Bethesda have had issues with GeForce Now, and now it’s 2K Games’ turn to quit the service. However, Tim Sweeney of Epic Games has publicly voiced his full support for the platform.

Rumor | Alder Lake-S with 16 cores could see Intel bringing big.LITTLE to the desktop, 80-150W TDP and PCIe Gen4 support in tow

A new leak about the purported Intel 12th gen Alder Lake-S platform indicates that we might see something on the lines of ARM's big.LITTLE architecture in smartphones being implemented on the desktop. Alder Lake-S is thought to offer up to 16 cores with a TDP ranging from 80 to 150W along with support for PCIe Gen4. The new platform is expected to require an LGA 1700 socket and will likely be made on the 10nm++ process.
