WWDC 2019 Roundup by Beebom

The keynote announcement at Apple’s annual developer conference,WWDC 2019, just wrapped up and we finally have a ton of new detail about softwares that power Apple’s closed ecosystem. Apple pulled a lot of punches at the keynote, giving us a dark mode, improved privacy and security with iOS 13, a breezy ocean-like ‘macOS Calatina’ build, along with the much-awaited hardware announcement of all time – the Mac Pro.

Well, without further ado, here’s everything Apple announced at WWDC 2019:

Major Announcements at Apple’s WWDC 2019

iOS 13


There was no doubt about the fact that iOS 13 will be the next iteration of iOS that will power your iPhone, but a system-wide dark mode has now officially been confirmed as well. Yeah, you now not only have a new dark wallpaper but also all of your native apps have an AMOLED dark theme applied to them.
Apart from the dark mode, you also get swipe typing in the keyboard (yay, finally), new fashion accessories in Memoji, Sing in with Apple for improved privacy and updated apps like Maps, Reminders, the camera app with enhanced photography feature, and lot more. iOS 13 is now available to preview for developers.

iPadOS

Well, the last moment leak has proven true. Apple has unveiled a new OS for its oh-so-popular iPad lineup called..umm….iPadOS. It’s an apt name as this operating system is going to be limited to iPads, so we can work with it.
iPadOS still looks the same as iOS, there are no major UI changes in tow. However, we have got a couple of handy new features like widget pinning on the homescreen (which you’ll bring up by swiping in from the left) and much-improved multitasking, along with better file management and USB/SD card support.

macOS Catalina

Apple’s marketing team is taking a stroll away from the sandy Mojave desert to Cali’s ocean, naming the next iteration of Apple’s desktop OS – macOS Catalina. It has killed off iTunes and given us separate apps for Apple Music, Podcasts, and Apple TV.

OnePlus's popularity among Students is REAL!

OnePlus has picked up popularity like wildfire since its initial launch in December 2013. The major reason for this is because OnePlus phones are priced affordably but do not compromise on quality and features. Seems like trendy features and a cost-effective price tag is the perfect recipe to attract students.
I am a techy person so I like to notice smartphones around me. Having lived in Manipal, I have noticed so many OnePlus phones, that I was actually surprised. Almost every other phone I used to notice was OnePlus. So, how did OnePlus pull this off?

OnePlus and Snapdragon


OnePlus has always put the latest snapdragon processor in their phones. This means that their phones are extremely fast and efficient. Students generally like to play games on their phones. With the latest processor, they can play any game they want at maximum graphics. This attracts a lot of students because otherwise if they wanted to play games at high graphics, they would have to buy an expensive phone. Apart from gaming, students can easily multitask between apps like WhatsApp, email, Facebook, etc. without any lag on OnePlus phones.

OnePlus’s big displays

Almost all students with their phones to have a big display. But just putting a big display is not ideal, the display should be big but not too big. OnePlus started off with a 5.5inch display in OnePlus One and today in 2019 their phones have displays larger than 6.4inches. All this without increasing the size of the phone much! Impressive right?
A big display means one can enjoy multimedia like YouTube, Netflix, or games on the go. On top of that, OnePlus uses OLED displays. OLED displays are found only in expensive premium phones mostly. These displays have high contrast and punchy colors. I have used OnePlus 6 for 1 year and I can say that its display is amazing.

OnePlus Dash Charge

Only a student knows the frustration of waking up late and reaching class with a low battery. With OnePlus phones, that never happens. Even if you plug the phone in 25-30 min before you leave, the phone charges almost 35-40%. That is all thanks to Dash Charge, a proprietary solution developed by OnePlus.
I can vouch for Dash Charge myself. It is a super useful feature for students. It is so satisfying to plug in your phone for a few minutes and have so much battery. Coming from 5W slow charging of iPhone, this is heaven!
