Apple plans 'to introduce charging from 15ft'


Description 
Ukrainian designer Herman Haidin investigates the possibility of a fully waterproof iPhone
It was rumoured last month that Apple was interested in adding groundbreaking wireless charging capabilities to its iPhone range, using technology that would enable the handset to be re-charged autonomously from a substantial distance.
Now, fresh reports hint the company could introduce it on their upcoming iPhone 7.

According to the New York Post, Apple has partnered up with tech firm Energous to use their WattUp wire-free charging system in future smartphones.
Energous's two-part technology allows "practically any type of device" to be charged wirelessly from distances of up to 15ft.
It uses a "tiny" chip - ideal for Apple, considering their design constraints – which receives power from a transmitter. It could mean phones able to be recharged while in user's pocket, so long as they were in range of the charging beacon.

Oppo F1 Plus review: More than just a selfie smartphone

Image
In January 2016 Oppo had announced that it would be launching its series of F series smartphones that focussed on the camera. Soon we heard about the F1, and then we reviewed it. It garnered a bit of interest, but it brought nothing new to the smartphone space (including its own lineup), apart from the 8MP front-facing sensor. Clearly, it just was not enough. But Oppo still had a another smartphone up its sleeve and this one indeed seemed to be the revamp that many were looking forward to. Why? Well, this is because it was to be the smartphone, that would pack in at least some of the impressive innovations that the company showcased at the MWC 2016 held at Barcelona. Impressive components (fingerprint reader, Super Fast VOOC charging etc.) that are also expected to appear in smartphones made by other manufacturers in the industry. Oddly, none of those components made it to the Oppo F1 Plus, but as we reviewed the smartphone, we did discover plenty of improvements and
