Recently Google has officially confirmed that the Pixel 7 series can only run 64-bit applications. A few days ago, blogger @MishaalRahman also told via Twitter that Google Pixel 7 series is supporting only 64-bit apps.

@MishaalRahman also pointed out that Android 13 on Pixel 7 phones doesn’t allow 32-bit apps to run, internally, the OS is still using some 32-bit libraries, which means that Google will intentionally run 32 -bit is preventing apps from running.

64 bit application

Google has shared some information about its Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro phones in a blog post on the developer’s official website. Which clarified that the Pixel 7 series is the first pure 64-bit Android smartphone

Why did Google use 64 bit and what are its benefits

Google developers believe that 64-bit applications run faster than 32-bit applications because they can use additional registers and instructions that 32-bit applications cannot. Additionally, newer CPUs offer up to 25% performance gains when running 64-bit code, and some processors even drop support for 32-bit code entirely.

Plus, it can help improve security. The larger address space makes security such as ASLR more effective, and additional bits can be used to protect the integrity of the control flow. These countermeasures reduce the chance of an intruder taking control of the equipment.

Google’s developer experts say that removing support for 32-bit code can save up to 150MB of RAM, which the operating system uses even when 32-bit applications are not running. Due to this, the user gets more RAM space. Also, Google developers can use better tools like HWASan to detect device memory errors and improve application quality.

However, Google has clarified that pure 32-bit devices are still important for Android Go, Android TV, and Android Wear, and Google Play will continue to provide 32-bit applications for pure 32-bit devices.

Exclusive Leak: Google Pixel 8 Pro Emulator Reveals 360-Degree Phone Design!

The 360-degree mobile phone simulator for the Google Pixel 8 Pro was leaked online a few days ago. The simulator allows users to view the phone from all angles, including the front, back, and sides. It also shows off the phone’s different colors, which are Hazel, Obsidian, and Snow.

The simulator is consistent with previous leaks about the Pixel 8 Pro’s design. The phone is expected to have a 6.7-inch OLED display with a hole-punch cutout for the front-facing camera. It will also have a triple-lens rear camera system, with a 50-megapixel main sensor, a 12-megapixel ultrawide sensor, and a 48-megapixel telephoto sensor.

The Pixel 8 Pro is expected to be powered by the Google Tensor G3 chip and will have 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It will also have a 4,950mAh battery with 27W fast charging.

The Google Pixel 8 Pro is scheduled to be released on October 4, 2023. The price is not yet known, but it is expected to be more expensive than the Pixel 7 Pro, which launched at Rs 84,999 in India.

The simulator also marked the location of the various sensors and interfaces on the phone, including the fingerprint sensor, the USB-C port, the speaker grille, and the microphone. It also showed the three colors of the phone, which are Hazel, Obsidian, and Snow.

The most notable new addition is the temperature sensor, which is located below the LED flash. This is the first time that a Google phone has had a temperature sensor. It is not yet clear what the temperature sensor will be used for, but it could be used to track your body temperature, measure the temperature of food, or control the temperature of your phone.

The Pixel 8 Pro is expected to have a 6.7-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It will be powered by the Google Tensor G3 chip and will have 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It will also have a 4,950mAh battery with 27W fast charging.

The camera is one of the most important features of the Pixel 8 Pro. It is expected to have a triple-lens rear camera system, with a 50-megapixel main sensor, a 12-megapixel ultrawide sensor, and a 48-megapixel telephoto sensor. It will also have a 11-megapixel front-facing camera.

The Pixel 8 Pro is also expected to have a number of software features that will make it stand out from other phones. These features include Night Sight for videos, Magic Eraser, and Face Unblur.

I’m excited to see what Google announces for the Pixel 8 Pro next month. It has the potential to be one of the best phones of the year.

I agree, the mockups of the Pixel 8 Pro look great. I’m particularly fond of the light blue color. I’m also glad that the phone will still have a SIM card slot. This is important for people who travel frequently or who need to use two different SIM cards for work and personal use.

I didn’t notice any major software changes on the home screen either. However, I’m sure that Google will have some new software features to announce alongside the Pixel 8 Pro. I’m looking forward to learning more about them.

Google: Pixel Watch’s “Burning Screen Door” It’s Just An After Image, And It Disappears In Some Time

Published

Google Pixel Watch is the latest wearable device released by it. Some users think they’ve encountered a “burnt out” screen, but Google said it’s only an afterthought.

In a related case, “screen burn-in” affected the Pixel Watch (Bluetooth/Wi-Fi) for at least 12 hours a day with AOD enabled for five days, according to 9to5 Google was used. Superimposed numbers on the “Daily” dial on the app list and the right-hand circle component (for the date) can be seen indistinctly, or any other gray background that isn’t completely black.

If AOD is turned off, the problem disappears in about 30 minutes. i.e. as soon as the watch face appears again, it will be regenerated. The IT house has learned that the Pixel Watch is equipped with a 320PPI AMOLED display that “boosts up to 1000 nits brightness”, and the affected watches have Adaptive Brightness enabled.

According to Google, there was no permanent burn-in on the Pixel Watch, but rather a temporary problem with subsequent images. The company insists that it is “not a precursor to burn-in” and that it will disappear over time, although “the longer it is on the screen, the more it will disappear”.

In terms of security, the Pixel Watch uses a “software algorithm that changes the brightness of the lit pixel every minute to reduce the chances of the image sticking.” Google said that “should not be the case for most users”.

“This prolongs the time before the image is glued to the view and reduces the time it takes for the after image to disappear. If the user experiences this, it will disappear over time, but the user will continue to AOD. You can also turn it off and/or use sleep front mode. Sleep so the screen stays off at night.”

Historically, Android Wear and Wear OS have provided burn-in protection that slowly moves the pixels on the screen over time so that the end user won’t notice the discrepancy.

The Android dev says, “On screens prone to burn-in, solid color blocks in ambient mode should be avoided. If icons or images include solid color blocks, a burn-in safe version should also be provided.”

Pixel phones haven’t suffered widespread AOD-related burn-in since the feature was introduced on the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL in 2017.
