OnePlus takes on the iPad with the OnePlus Pad
news.movim.eu / ArsTechnica · Yesterday - 21:00 · 1 minute
The OnePlus Pad doing its best iPad Pro impersonation.
Android tablets are on their way back, and one of Android's biggest manufacturers (we're talking about OnePlus parent company BBK) is bringing an Android tablet to the US for the first time. Say hello to the OnePlus Pad, an 11.61-inch tablet with an optional keyboard and stylus. We don't know how much it costs, so don't ask. There's also no hard release date, but preorders start in April.
What we do know are the specs. The 11.61-inch display is a 144 Hz LCD, with a resolution of 2800×2000. That's an aspect ratio of 7:5, or a bit wider than a 4:3 display, which OnePlus claims is a "book-like" aspect ratio. The SoC is a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 . That's a rarity in the US, but it's basically a generic ARM design for 2022 flagship phones, with one 3.05 GHz ARM Cortex X2 CPU, three A710 CPUs, and four A510 CPUs. It's a 4 nm chip with an ARM Mali-G710 MC10. You also get 8GB of RAM (there's an option for 12GB), 128GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 9510 mAh battery. This is not in the super-flagship tablet territory and should (hopefully) come with an affordable price tag.
As always, OnePlus' trademark quick-charging is here, and it's 67 W. On a tiny phone battery, that kind of charging will usually take a phone from 0-100 in around a half hour, but with a big tablet battery, a full charge still takes "just over 60 minutes." In the fine print, OnePlus actually gives a warning against any repair attempts, saying, "The battery has been especially encrypted for safety purposes. Please go to an official OnePlus service center to repair your battery or get a genuine replacement battery." I've never heard of a battery being "encrypted" before, but I think they mean there is a serial number check in the firmware somewhere and that it will presumably refuse to work if you replace it. As for the possibility of an "official OnePlus service center" actually existing, there is a business finder on the OnePlus India website, but not one in the US, so it's looking like mail-in service only.

Sonos will release a new flagship speaker "in the coming months," according to a report Monday from The Verge . The publication said this will be called the Era 300 and that Sonos is prioritizing the device's spatial audio capabilities.
The Verge claimed that Sonos is aiming for the Era 300 to be its most accurate speaker yet. It pointed to a heightened focus on making Dolby Atmos content shine, as well as improving music using spatial audio. According to The Verge, the Era 300 will be a "multidirectional speaker built to get the most from spatial audio" by way of a "completely re-architected acoustic design."
We don't have deeper details, like specs or pricing. However, Wi-Fi 6 and a USB-C port are apparently "likely," and Bluetooth support is also possible. According to The Verge, Sonos has at least looked into including all these features on the Era 300.

Google will soon default to blurring explicit image search results

Google has debuted a new default SafeSearch setting, somewhere between "on" and "off," that automatically blurs explicit images in search results for most people.
In a blog post timed to Safer Internet Day , Google outlined a number of measures it plans to implement to "protect democracies worldwide," secure high-risk individuals, improve password management, and protect credit card numbers. Tucked into a series of small-to-medium announcements is a notable change to search results, Google's second core product after advertising.
A new setting, rolling out "in the coming months," "will blur explicit imagery if it appears in Search results when SafeSearch filtering isn't turned on," writes Google's Jen Fitzpatrick, senior vice president of Core Systems & Experiences. "This setting will be the new default for people who don't already have the SafeSearch filter turned on, with the option to adjust settings at any time."
