iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max reportedly hit with a charging bug

Image
    The brand new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max handsets have only been in customers' hands for a week, but already a problem has emerged – namely that some models don't start charging when plugged into the mains if the screen is off when they're connected. At the moment the issue is only anecdotal, but based on forum posts and YouTube videos it seems to be genuine, even if the scale of the problem isn't clear yet. We've tested charging behavior on our own iPhone XS in the TechRadar office and it works fine, so this isn't something that's affecting every handset out there. Some users report it's phone inactivity that causes the charging cable not to be recognized, rather than the screen being off. In just about every case we've seen, charging carries on usually as soon as the phone gets unlocked or is interacted with. It's a bug's life Considering charging is only disabled under certain conditions, it seems that this is likely to

One plus crushed it in India over the course of the last year, amassing over 40% of the market share in the premium segment. As a way of thanking its community, the Chinese manufacturer rolled out a Star Wars-themed edition of the OnePlus 5T. The company is now continuing its collaboration with Disney to introduce an Avengers variant of the OnePlus 6 alongside the standard version Like last year, the limited edition variant will be sold primarily in Asian markets. There were rumors ahead of the launch that the device will make its way to the UK, but OnePlus has quelled the speculation by confirming that the OnePlus 6 Avengers Edition will be exclusive to India and China.    OnePlus has custom packaging for its limited edition variants, and the OnePlus 6 Marvel Avengers Edition is no different. The large box comes emblazoned with the Avengers insignia, and inside you'll find the phone as well as a custom Iron Man case (which is reminiscent of the Kylo Ren case included with th

OnePlus 6T to launch soon but should you wait for next OnePlus flagship?

   Isn’t it a big dilemma? Be it Apple’s new iPhone or Google’s Pixel, whenever you’re making up mind to buy the new phone, there’s always a better version coming soon. OnePlus is no exception. But unlike Apple or Google, OnePlus has shorter product upgrade cycle. For instance, OnePlus 6T is launching just six months after the OnePlus 6 launch. Based on OnePlus’s product launch cycle, OnePlus 7 shouldn’t be far away. What makes things more irking for OnePlus users is that new OnePlus phones arrive at almost the same price as the older ones. OnePlus 5T launched in India in November 2017 at a starting price of Rs 32,999. Six months later, OnePlus 6 launched in India at a base price of Rs 34,999. In case of OnePlus 6T, the phone is speculated to be priced slightly higher at a starting price of Rs 36,000. The price, however, isn’t the final and could remain aggressive, in line with OnePlus’ strategy for the Indian premium phone market. In simpler words, those who buy OnePlus 6T w

  Apple iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max will begin shipping starting at 6 pm today. The new iterations of the iPhone this year come with some new and some polished features over the year-old iPhone X, which is the source of inspiration for their design language. Major online and offline retailers in the country began taking the pre-orders starting September 21, giving the buyers more reasons to stamp on their iPhone choice with a handful of offers. Among the e-tailers, Airtel, Jio, and Paytm Mall are still taking pre-orders while Flipkart has put the ‘Notify Me’ label next to the iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max listings. While Airtel is offering 5 percent cash back on the Citibank credit cards on the pre-orders, it falls short on the benefits that the customer will be entitled to while placing the pre-order on Paytm Mall.   The Paytm Mall is giving away an additional exchange bonus of Rs 7,000 on top of the value that the old smartphone will get the customer on putting it for the
