Google is expanding its ways to offer a new convenience facility as its workspace is getting a new video creation tool called Google Vids. 

Google Workspace is introducing a new video creation tool called Google Vids, or you can call it ‘PowerPoint on steroids.’ Google announced it a few months ago, and it is now announcing a free, public testing phase.

This new facility, named Google Vids, permits you to both work with existing video content and create video from scratch. 

Create videos from scratch with the help of Gemini for particular options, such as the ability to outline a script, and create multiple slides until you find the usable video content. Once the first draft has been prepared, the user can then adapt the output to their satisfaction, customizing or even deleting slides, as well as working on texts, images, and more. 

Once you are done with the work, you can save the format with an MP4 extension. As compared to other more classically designed tools included in Google Workspace, Google Vids appear to be more focused on AI.

While starting a new project in Google Workspace, you can use the Gemini prompt to give instructions to the AI assistant to enhance your experience. The giant has already made this prompt box available. Noticeably, the documents you have already uploaded to Google Drive Gemini can be analyzed. 

All the functionality mentioned above regarding Google Vids is described by one of our colleagues, Android Authority, who also wanted to show a demonstration of Google Vids’ capabilities using the following prompt: “Inform our employees about the latest discoveries on the benefits of video games. Highlight how video games can improve cognitive function, problem-solving skills, and social interaction.” 

However, at the moment Google Vids is running in a very early testing phase, so it might be possible you can face some roughness.

Low-temperature polycrystalline oxide, or LTPO, is a display technology that delivers several advantages over traditional displays. Let’s take a closer look at how this technology works. 

LTPO is a display technology that upgrades battery performance and image smoothness. This technology permits you to adjust the screen’s refresh rate depending on what’s being displayed; you can also reduce battery usage without affecting the original image quality. The LTPO offers a superior and convenient viewing experience while saving energy. 

This technology introduced by Apple merges the best parts of slightly older and more reliable technologies in the same field; for instance, LTPS and TGZO. The first LTPO display debuted on the market with the Apple Watch 4 back in 2018, but the efficient benefits of its use only became more evident in the following year’s model, such as the Apple Watch Series 5, which was able to keep the screen always turned on without even destroying the autonomy. 

How LTPO displays work: 

The LTPO display permits the display to dynamically change its refresh rate without even requiring any extra components. This refers to how often the image on the screen is upgraded per second. Higher refresh rates—for instance, 120 Hz—mean smoother visuals, whereas lower rates, such as 1 Hz, use less power. 

While interacting with the device, the refresh rate boosts to deliver a smooth and seamless experience. Conversely, for static images or text, the rate drops efficiently, saving battery life. The LTPO display technology merges two other technologies: LTPS and TFT IGZO. The switching circuits use LTPS, while the driving TFTs use IGZO materials. Simply put, a thin film transistor helps to control individual pixels on screens. 

LPTS is an expansion of aSi, which stands for amorphous silicon, an older type of TFT, and its use has made it possible to create screens with high pixel density and higher refresh rates as it features greater electron mobility than the ASI. For LTPO, the original LTPS transistor material was replaced by metal oxides, since they have lower electron mobility as compared to LTPS but are more efficient. This ensures at least 15% lower power consumption. 

Apple is the mastermind behind inventing LTPO display technology, but now this technology is no longer exclusive to Apple since several other brands such as Samsung (HOP), Razer, Oppo, OnePlus, and Sharp also use this technology in their products. For instance, the Korean Samsung has used the LTPO display in the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra (2020). 

LTPO combines LTPS and IGZO technologies, both of which are expensive to produce, making it costly to manufacture. Expensive production technique is the key reason LTPO is only available in premium devices.

T-Mobile, a telecommunications brand that offers wireless services, is the third-largest wireless carrier in the US. T-Mobile requires phones purchased through them to be used on their network for 40 days before unlocking.

T-Mobile locks you into its service for that period, but a few smartphones—for instance, the Samsung and Google Pixel—can be unlocked immediately. Yes! You read that currently, you can immediately unlock your Samsung and Pixel devices without even waiting for 40 days. This is possible due to a sudden glitch. 

It is being speculated by the report, which states that a user on Reddit hints that there appears to be a glitch that’s permitting people to unlock their Samsung and Pixel devices. This glitch seems beneficial for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, Galaxy S23, Galaxy Z Flip 5, Galaxy Z Fold 5, Flip 2, Fold 5, Pixel 7, and Tab A9 Plus. 

With this glitch, Pixel users can avoid a time-consuming process, like downloading the T-Mobile Device Unlock (Pixel) from the Play Store and then following the basic steps to unlock their Pixel device. On the other side, Galaxy users also discovered that it can be unlocked from the carrier branding through easy steps. To unlock the Samsung Galaxy device, users have to open the Settings app, go to Connections, click on More Connection Setting, choose Network Unlock, and then request a temporary unlock. Then request a temporary unlock. After completing these steps, wait some time and click on Permanent Unlock to finish. 

However, this glitch is letting users of the devices mentioned above unlock their devices without performing all these actions.
