When the next iPhone comes out you will see Apple implementing their own version of what we saw on the P20 Pro and P30 Pro ;)

In this tech industry there are always people either knocking of others or modifying what others did. Apple only had single lense cameras but when others added 2 they added 2 and now others added 3 and they are adding 3. When Apple came out with iPhones they had a single SIM card option only for the iPhone but when Chinese offered dual sim and it sold well they started doing the same as well. In the tech industry this is normal.
Hmm, I don’t remember anybody doing a dual camera setup for telephoto and bokeh effect prior to Apple. The only one I remembered was HtC putting dual camera for 3D effects.

And we have had dual SIM way before the original iPhone. Plenty of old feature phones with dual SIM. It’s not a recent Chinese thing. Stop making it like the Chinese came up with these stuff. Apple didn’t do dual SIM early on because dual SIM is practically unknown in the US. Even Samsung phones are only single SIM in the US, while the same model is dual SIm outside. Since iPhones are primarily designed with US centric in mind, it’s not strange to not come in dual SIM right away. Even the OnePlus One for the US was only single SIM, and that’s a Chinese phone.

Dual camera and now tri Camera setups came out of China, Taiwan and Korea before the US or Apple came out with them. Dual Sim was used in Asia before Apple decided to add dual Sim to their smartphones. Apple has yet to allow dual user use on a smartphone like they do on computers which China, Taiwan and Korea out of Asia has had for many years now.

I do realize though that in Europe, Asia and Middle East the dual Sim feature is very practical while not so much in the US.

The Idea of dual sim in Asia is they have the option of pay as you go and monthly data plan is high. The carrier locked phone in US makes user spoiled with unlimited plan. The bottom line is in Asia you can use 2 pay as you go line or 1 with monthly subscription and 1 pay as you go.

For travelers they often add pay as you go sim when traveling or if they travel often have that second sim for that purpose. Good part is ability to install two apps for each number where one can not do this on iPhone. You get half the function with second sim that Apple finally added to their smartphones.

Huawei P30 and P30 Pro update enables DC dimming
DC dimming is being enabled on the Huawei P30 and P30 Pro via a software update that is currently rolling out in China. This means that Huawei’s flagships have joined the growing number of phones with OLED screens that ditched PWM for DC dimming.

What’s the difference? In short, PWM rapidly turns the pixels on and off to lower the brightness - hence the name "pulse width modulation". This leads to a flicker that some people are sensitive to and causes headaches for them.

DC dimming reduces the current sent to each pixel, which reduces its brightness while keeping it on constantly (so, no flicker). It’s not quite as simple, however, because the color emitted by OLEDs tends to shift at low currents meaning makers need to compensate for this (otherwise, the color accuracy of the screen goes out the window).

I have not received this update yet. Yesterday I went and looked at the new One Plus 7 Pro, some things are better and some worse. The only better thing that I reckon was better was the screen on the One Plus 7 pro. If the P30 Pro had the same screen it would have been perfect

It is time for the policymaker to know he is not God, he is president. Cannot put a company with 150k employees out of business.
 
To some extent he claimed he has made the country great again and did something good for the country like no others have done it.

And you cannot even do that on stock Android either. It’s a feature of some Chinese OEM skins and recent Samsung Touch wiz.

You pretty much get 2 smartphones for the price of 1 in one smartphone which I think is great :):D

One of the most underrated features in a lot of these Chinese OEM devices! Also the ability to lock certain apps is amazing, they thoroughly thought about you privacy. I had tried to replicate the feature on my Note8 after having it as a standard feature in the Mate 10 Pro and I simply could not find a proper app that works reliably for it.

I wonder if the Chinese OEMs used their time machines to go into the future and steal these awesome features from somewhere like being able to lock your Instagram with Facial Recognition and Fingerprint Scanner.

The rising of China has put numerous companies out of business. Go ask the Japanese. Why should one feel “bad” about Huawei now?

It is called “Abuse of power or authority”. He has gotten away with a lot of stuff that no other President would have gotten away with.
If there are any abuses, the US legislative system will take care of it. One cannot just call anything an “abuse of power” just because one doesn’t like it.

One thing about the US is that their government is open about what they do so almost anybody can actually look and read on what they wrote into laws and regulations. Contrary to the Chinese government where there are seemingly more smokes and mirrors.

[doublepost=1559474758][/doublepost]When trade is top priority. Corporate profit is involved. Human tragedies happen. The Chinese nation has been the sweat shop of the world and about time to reap the reward. As for Japanese their electronic tech has been overtaken by others such as Samsung to name a few. They cannot survive on making TV and Walkman. Human innovation and upward mobility cannot be stiffled by politicians. When American agricultural products cannot be sold in China. There will be regime change in DC.

But then countries like China have very strict laws around what products can come into their markets.
The attach large tariffs on foreign goods to protect their local markets against outside products destroying their local economies.
Some countries saw China as a vast untapped market to sell their products and was willing to accept unfair trade agreements. But after a while they wanted to have equally fair trade agreements and China has balked at this.

Then Huawei has a well documented history of stealing other companies technology.
If the Chinese are the world's "sweat shop" as you say. It is only because they positioned themselves to be that for the world. I think the Chinese government encourages this as well. They want their masses to be employed at whatever wages they can get....don't forget this is a communist government. The more of its people that are employed it directly feeds the government.

True but Trump has chosen to bypass the Senate and Congress on many issues of which they would not approve of.

Did Apple steal this from Chinese manufacturers? :p lol.. Dual account option finally coming Apple IOS?

Always some one will defend the home team saying Chinese 'copied' and 'stolen' their patterns and whatever. As Huawei founder
mentioned in one his interviews, they are so far advanced, they have no one to copy from and others are copying them.
Disclosure : I do not work for Huawei nor other Chinese manufacturers.
 
No no no, it’s the Huawei Time Machine, they stole that from Apple, they went into the future saw that the feature would come in 2019, so they stole it and took it back to 2017. Sneaky sneaky Huawei!

Separate iCloud accounts for personal and enterprise.. Could you explain that to me..? Did I misunderstand this perhaps..? Does this mean two log in accounts like on the Huawei Smartphone and other Chinese smartphones.? This available for smartphones and iPads.? This has been available on computers for some time now though. It would be nice if Apple finally caught up with what the Chinese have been offering their smartphone users to do instead of forcing buyers to buy two smartphones.

I think this has been enabled for a while on Android...
Or did I miss something?

https://source.android.com/devices/tech/admin/multi-user

On some devices if I am not mistaken. On the Google Pixel 3 which does not have dual sim will not allow you to run dual sim and dual apps on one phone with two different login credentials. I could be mistaken..

Did what Apple announced today mean that this can now be done or iPhone and iPads or did I misunderstand..?
