2020 iPhones

2020 iPhones

We've heard several other rumors about features that could come to iPhones in the years beyond 2019.

o  Size Options

Taiwanese site Digi Times believes that Apple will release three OLED iPhones in 2020, in 5.42, 6.06, and 6.67 inches. Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who often has accurate info about Apple's plans, has also said that Apple will release three OLED devices that include high-end 5.4 and 6.7-inch models along with a lower-end 6.1-inch model.

o  Laser-Equipped 3D Rear Camera

In 2020, Apple is said to be planning to add a laser-powered time-of-flight 3D rear camera that will result in significant improvements to AR experiences to the iPhone.

A time-of-flight (ToF) camera system uses a laser to calculate the time that it takes for the laser to bounce off of objects in a room, using the data to create an accurate 3D image of the surrounding area. This allows for more accurate depth perception and better placement of virtual objects, and it will also result in photos better able to capture depth.

The camera will be able to scan areas up to 15 feet from the device. Apple's front-facing TrueDepth camera uses 3D technology but because it's infrared and not laser-powered, it only works at distances of 25 to 50 centimeters. Sony could be Apple's supplier for the new system, with Apple in talks with Sony over sensor tests. The camera will be a triple-lens camera, with Apple also planning to introduce improved photo capturing tools.

Apple's manufacturing partners are getting VCSEL (vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers) components ready to use in rear Time-of-Flight (ToF) camera lenses that will be used in the 2020 iPhones.

o  5G

Apple was originally planning to use Intel's 5G chips in its 2020 iPhones, due to an ongoing lawsuit with Qualcomm but Intel exited the 5G chip market. Apple settled its disagreement with Qualcomm and will now be using Qualcomm's 5G chips in its 2020 iPhone lineup.

Apple may also use some modem chips from Samsung in select markets where Sub-6GHz networks are more popular for its 2020 5G iPhones.

The rumored 5.4 and 6.7-inch iPhone options are said to support 5G speeds, while the lower-end 6.1-inch iPhone in 2020 will continue to work with LTE.

All new iPhones are expected to support 5G in 2021, and by 2022 or 2023, Apple could have its own 5G chips ready, alleviating the need for the company to rely on Qualcomm.

o  OLED

The iPhone XR successor in the 2019 iPhone may be the last iPhone to feature an LCD display as Apple is said to be "likely" to transition to an all-OLED lineup starting in 2020. According to The Wall Street Journal, Apple will adopt OLED displays to "allow for more flexible handset design."

Apple designers are said to be aiming to remove most of the external ports and buttons on the iPhone for a clean, streamlined device. Apple is expected to work towards this goal with each iPhone iteration, and the first port to go could be the Lightning port once wireless charging technology improves.

o  LG's foldable display technology

As for the more outlandish, Apple is said to be developing an iPhone with a foldable display in partnership with LG Display, with panel production for an iPhone with a folding display set to kick off in 2020. Apple is also said to be working on touchless gesture controls and curved screens, technologies that could launch within three years.

o  ProMotion

Rumors from notable Samsung leaker "Ice Universe" on Twitter have suggested iPhones coming in 2020 could feature a switchable 60Hz/120Hz refresh rate. Apple already uses ProMotion technology in the iPad Pro, so it's not too farfetched to believe it could extend to the iPhone in the future.

The iPad Pro models do, however, use LCD displays and not OLED displays like the flagship iPhone models.

o  A14 Chip

Rumors suggest TSMC will manufacture the 5-nanometer chips Apple will use in its 2020 iPhone lineup. The 5-nanometer process will produce chips that are smaller, faster, and more battery efficient due to improved thermal management.

o  SMALLER NOTCH OR NO NOTCH

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes that at least one new iPhone in 2020 will feature a smaller front camera lens for an improved screen to bezel ratio, ultimately resulting in a smaller notch at the front.

An analyst from Credit Suisse has said that Apple will introduce at least one new iPhone with no notch or Face ID in 2020, relying instead on an under-display fingerprint sensor.

Apple supplier AMS has announced new sensor technology that allows the RBG light and the IR proximity sensor used for the front-facing TrueDepth camera system to be embedded under an OLED display. Apple could potentially be planning to introduce the new sensor tech in its 2020 iPhones, and this would allow Apple to create an iPhone with a smaller Face ID notch.

o  UNDER-DISPLAY TOUCH ID

As mentioned above, one rumor has suggested Apple is planning to release an iPhone with an under-display fingerprint sensor instead of Touch ID in 2020, which would allow for a device with no front notch. Apple will reportedly use full-screen acoustic fingerprint authentication, which would presumably work anywhere on the screen.

Barclays analysts have suggested 2020 iPhone models could use acoustic fingerprint technology, and Chinese site The Global Times has suggested Apple will release a notchless phone with an under-display fingerprint sensor aimed at the Chinese market.

Respect vs Love

 This thought always confuse me whether love or respect is important.

It always stuck in my mind and I always choose love but then I see that there's no love without respect. The situations always proved that it's not love or respect alone that is enough but both are mutual and without love there's no respect as there's no love without respect.

If you Actually Love Someone you will definitely respect Him/Her. And If you respect someone you definitely love that person…..

Protocol

Protocols

Protocols represent an agreement among different parts of the network i.e. how data is to be transferred. Though you are not supposed to see them and only a few people understand them, their effect on system performance can be spectacular. A poorly implemented protocol can slower data transfer but software following standard protocols can make communications between dissimilar systems possible. For instanse, the TCP/IP protocol enables you to transfer data between computers that have different architectures and operating systems.

The key elements of protocol are syntax, semantics and timing.

1.          Syntax specifies the signal levels to be used and the format in which the data is to be sent.

2.       Semantics specifies the information structure needed for coordination among machines and for data handling.

3.      Timing includes speed matching so that a computer with a 33.6 kilobit per second port can talk to one with a 56 kilobit per second port and the proper sequencing of data in case it arrives out of order.

IEEE 802.X Standards:- The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has developed a set of standards describing the cabling, physical topology, electrical topology and access scheme of network products. The committee structure of the IEEE is numbered like the decimal system. The general committee working on these standards is 802. Various subcommittees, designed by decimal numbers, have worked on different versions of the standards.

These standards describe the protocols used in the lower two layers of the OSI model, the Physical & Data-Link layers. They don’t go above those layers.

IEEE 802.3 & 802.5:- IEEE standard 802.5 describes the Token-Ring architecture. The work of this committee received a lot of attention and leadership from IBM. This standard describes a token-passing protocol used on a network of stations connected in a special way, combining an electrical ring topology where every station actively passes information to the next one in the ring.

IBM’s Token-Ring system is important to corporate data processing managers because IBM supports a number of mainframe computers Token-Ring interfaces.

Many vendors make Token-Ring interface cards for popular minicomputers. These allow easy interaction without the use of complex and expensive micro-to-mainframe links and gateways.

IEEE 802.3, on the other hand, describes a standard that owes a lot to the earlier Ethernet system. It uses Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) signaling on an electrical bus topology. The standard leaves room for several wiring options. One extension to the 802.3 standards introduced signaling at 100 megabits per second under what is commonly called Fast Ethernet or the 100 Base-T standard. You can buy 802.3 interface cards for the PC from dozens of manufacturers. Similar cards designed for popular minicomputers are also widely available.

IEEE 802.6:- Metropolitan-Area Networks or MANs make up the 802.6 sub-category of the IEEE 802 standards project. Metropolitan networks can take many forms but the term usually describes a backbone network of fiber-optic cables that could span hundreds of square miles. The telephone companies provide a great deal of MAN connections, as do a growing number of cable television companies. While some organizations install their own microwave systems for MAN circuits, the majority lease circuits from local telephone companies or cable television companies.

TCP/IP:-  The earliest large network systems were fielded by the Department of Defense (DoD). The DoD financed the development of interactive network communications software for many different mainframes and minicomputers. The standard core of the DoD specified software consists of programs that implement two protocols, that is. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and Internet Protocol (IP). The availability of TCP/IP software and the power of the biggest TCP/IP application, the Internet make them attractive to face the challenge of integrating dissimilar computer systems. TCP/IP software is popular on large networks because it works and is available for practically in all computers.

TCP and IP perform primarily what the OSI model terms layer-3 (Network) and layer-4 (Transport) functions. Particularly important is the capability to communicate and to order data among two or more different computer systems.

Companies like Net Manage and Walker Richer and Quinn sell TCP/IP software customized for specific computers and controller cards. These software modules communicate through the network, recognize each other and pass messages in common format generated by the higher-level Session layer and application programs. TCP/IP software is popular on large networks because it works and is available for practically in all computers.

X.25 Protocol:- X.25 protocol defines how communication devices such as routers package and route data over a connecting circuit. X.25 data packaging and routing can be used over any satellite or Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) communication circuits. It can also be used over any type of point-to-point circuits but the protocol is better known for its packet-switching capabilities.

There are two main types of Public Data Networks (PDN), circuit switched and packet switched each with its own standards. Since the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is still widely used for data communication, standards have been established for interfacing to this type of network. In general, the standards for each of these networks refer to the lowest three layers of the OSI model. Let us outline the differences between the two types of switching used in PDNs.
