Samsung announced the release of two flagship devices; Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S21+. This line features a new “head-turning, iconic design”.

It also features a pro-grade camera and Galaxy’s most advanced processor to date.

According to TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile Communications Business, Samsung Electronics “We are living in a mobile-first world, and with so many of us working remotely and spending more time at home, we wanted to deliver a smartphone experience that meets the rigorous multimedia demands of our continuously changing routines.”

Here is what we are loving so far about the new Galaxy release.

A Bold Innovative Style

Since the Galaxy S21 is built for expression, it seems to be designed to light and compact with a larger battery, serving the binge-watchers among us.

The overall aesthetic of the phones is sleek but noteworthy, it comes in a range of hip colors including Samsung’s new signature share: Phantom Violet.

The display is also designed to be easy on the eyes.

To help reduce eye fatigue from your Bridgerton binge, Galaxy S21’S new Eye Comfort Shield automatically adjusts the blue light based on the time of day, content you’re viewing, and your bedtime.

Making Everyday Epic

And that requires an epic pro-grade camera and Galaxy S21 continues to deliver.

Samsung’s legendary camera heritage with pro-grade enhancements and video innovations that enable users of every skill level to get the best shot.

Improved 8K Snap lets the users grab sharp clear images from their 8K video footage, which means you get to record the action live but still get fascinating still shots every time you hit record.

There is also the new Director’s View which allows you to see, switch, and select the best shot to tell your best story.

Our Most Anticipated Accessory of 2021

Welcome the new Samsung’s Galaxy Buds Pro, which will help you capture both ambient sounds and your voice at the same time using the multiple mic recording feature. Imaging setting up Galaxy S21 in Pro Video Mode on a tripod and using the Buds Pro as your voice mic.

Privacy Matters

Samsung also announced commitment to protecting sensitive information through arming Galaxy S21 with Samsung Knox Vault, Samsung’s own proprietary chipset level (SoC) security platform.

By adding tamper-resistant secure memory to this secure processor, Samsung Knox Vault adds a new layer of protection.

Galaxy S21 has a new tool to protect and monitor privacy which allows you to safely remove location metadata from photos before sharing. With Galaxy S21’s all-new Private Share function, you can also control who gets access to the content you send, and how long it’s available – so you can share content worry-free.

Let’s see what Apple is gearing up for, 2021 is shaping up to a pretty epic start with Galaxy S21.

How to screenshot on iPhone 14: new 'copy and delete' option

iOS 16 has brought a new valuable “copy and delete” option when you screenshot on your iPhone; it allows you to paste the image in a message or email without saving it to your photo library, which helps you save storage on your iPhone.

The new iOS 16 “copy and delete” option can be used in regular and scrolling screenshots. It helps you keep your photo library out of repeated and useless screenshots.

So, how to take regular and scrolling screenshots on your iPhone without downloading a third-party app?

Regular screenshots using the new ‘copy and delete’ option

  1. Press the side button and volume up button at the same time to grab a screenshot (you can also press one immediately after the other)
  2. For 5 seconds, you can tap the screenshot thumbnail in the bottom left corner for more options – if you do nothing, it will save to the Photos app.
  3. If you tap the screenshot thumbnail, you can use markup tools – tap the share button in the top right corner (square with up arrow) for quick options.
  4. Tap Done in the top left corner for the handy new Copy and Delete option

Scrolling screenshot on iPhone

With this native iOS option, a scrolling screenshot or long screenshot gives you a PDF of everything on (or selection of) a document, webpage, note, or email in Apple’s apps.

  1. Take a screenshot (press the side button and volume up button at the same time)
  2. Tap the thumbnail in the bottom left corner before it disappears
  3. Choose the Full Page option in the top right corner. The Full Page option will only appear in instances where there is more than one page worth of content on-screen
  4. You can preview all the pages, use markup, and more before saving
  5. You can also tap the crop icon (square-ish icon next to “Done”) to edit what part of the Full Page you’d like to save
  6. Tap either Done in the top-left corner to save or the share button in the top right – you’ll get the new Copy and Delete option with these too
  • Tip: For webpages, swipe down to ensure all content loads before saving the scrolling screenshot.

Third-party apps

Another option for scrolling screenshots of content inside third-party apps or more manual control (saving as PNG, etc.) is using an app like Picsew or Tailor.

Apple will roll out iOS 16 update to fix iPhone 14 Pro bug causing cameras’ shake

Apple will roll out iOS 16 update to fix iPhone 14 Pro bug causing cameras' shake

Apple will release the first update to iOS 16 in light of reports by some users about a bug in iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max causing the camera to shake and buzz on some apps, including Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram.

These problems include the rear camera shaking, rattling, and even making physical noises.

Apple has acknowledged the problem in a statement to Bloomberg. The company says a fix will roll out sometime next week. If you are affected by this issue, do not allow your iPhone 14 Pro’s camera to rattle/shake because it could cause hardware damage.

After releasing iPhone 14 Pro models last Friday, some users posted videos on Twitter and Reddit complaining about a bug in iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max that caused the camera's shake and buzz.

Other users said they had seen similar problems with Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok. A handful of videos showing this problem have also been shared on social media.

This video below from TikTok does a great job of showing the software problem alongside the iPhone 14 Pro’s camera module rattling. It was posted by TikTok user Damian Munoz on Saturday:

Because this iPhone 14 Pro camera shaking/rattling problem only affects the camera in third-party apps, it’s almost certainly a software bug.

In particular, it could be related to optical image stabilization, hence the rattling sounds the camera module makes. Likely, these third-party apps weren’t prepared for the iPhone 14 Pro camera changes.

As of right now, there’s no fix for this problem. The affected apps, like Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok, will likely need to roll out updates to their respective apps to solve the problem.
