Facebook tool to export pictures to Google Photos now available worldwide - Android Police Posted: 04 Jun 2020 12:59 PM PDT This story was originally published and last updated . Late last year, Facebook announced a tool to let users easily migrate their uploaded photos to Google Photos. The tool was initially available in Ireland, with plans to expand to more countries in the first half of this year. The social network has made good on those plans by expanding the rollout to the US and Canada in April, and now reaching a global rollout today. Global availability In a post on Twitter, Facebook has confirmed the transfer tool is globally available.
The timing may be coincidental, but given the recent controversies surrounding Facebook, there may be a lot of people looking into moving their photos and videos elsewhere. If you're looking for instructions to get that content moved over to Google Photos, check out the step-by-step guide we posted a couple weeks ago. Facebook previously made the tool available in a number of regions throughout Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America. It's a pretty straightforward process: from the general Facebook settings, select Your Facebook Information →Transfer a Copy of Your Photos or Videos. From there, just follow the prompts. The tool came out of the joint Data Transfer Project by Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Microsoft — a GDPR-compliant initiative to make personal data more mobile. In addition to downloading a copy or exporting it to Google Photos, users will eventually have more destination options for their photos, although Facebook hasn't said which. |
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 5G release date and charger specs tipped, launching earlier - PhoneArena Posted: 05 Jun 2020 02:44 AM PDT Samsung is expected to have the richest August of product launches ever, what with the Note 20 series, but also the Fold 2 and the 5G version of the Galaxy Z Flip. Throw in a purported Galaxy Tab S7+ and, potentially, a new Galaxy Watch, and the big summer event is bound to grow bigger. The Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20+ are said to arrive with next generation LTPO screen panels that will reportedly have adaptive refresh rate, not the half-baked software solution that Samsung uses now on the S20 series, and which our tests showed to be a battery hog. Adding the more frugal panels to an eventual upgraded processor could mean that you will be able to get from the rumored 4500mAh battery of the Note 20 Plus/Ultra similar battery life to what we are now getting from the 5000mAh pack of the S20 Ultra, at least for the Exynos version, as Snapdragon 865 will stay. Samsung Galaxy Note 20, Fold 2 and Flip 5G release dateSo, when will Samsung announce and release the Galaxy Note 20 series along with the new Fold and Flip bendy duo? According to a popular tipster, the coveted Unpacked event date is August 5 which would peg the launch date for Friday 21, if history is any indication. That timeframe may sound as if it is earlier than usual and 2020 is unusual year indeed, but in fact jibes perfectly with the Galaxy Note 9 or 10 series unveiling and launch dates which didn't go into late August, too. Here are the rumored Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Plus/Ultra specifications:
While for the smaller, more basic Note 20 model the leaked specs differences compared to the Plus/Ultra are as follows:
Samsung Galaxy Note 20, Fold 2 and Flip 5G batteries and charging speedsWhile we thought we'd learned everything there is to be known about the potential Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20+ battery capacities (hint: they will be larger than what's in the Note 10/10+), a listing in the Chinese certification body turned the current rumors on their head. Instead of a 4000mAh battery, as previously claimed, the Note 20 may arrive with a 4300mAh unit. Back in May, the alleged Galaxy Note 20 battery pack leaked denoted as model number EB-BN980ABY, and carrying a 4000mAh capacity, against the 3500mAh of the Note 10. A 3500mAh to 4000mAh would be a hearty increase in previous years, but in 2020, the year of 5G connectivity and 120Hz display refresh rates, every little milliamp-hour helps. Unfortunately, the Galaxy Note 20 Plus, Ultra, or whatever it gets named, is still rumored to come with a 4500mAh battery pack, no changes here. Thanks to the same certification body, however, we are now learning the charging speeds of said battery packs, as well as those of the eventual Galaxy Z Flip 5G model that may be about to be unveiled on August 5. It looks like the Galaxy Note 20 series will carry the 25W chargers over from the S20 series, while the 5G model of the Z Flip will keep the 15W brick of its LTE-only predecessor. No, the only thing left is to learn about the camera set on the smaller Note 20 model. |
Google Pixel 4a design just leaked — and there’s one big surprise - Tom's Guide Posted: 05 Jun 2020 12:09 AM PDT Google's Pixel 4a should be on its way next month, and as July draws closer we're seeing ever more leaks around the search giant's next affordable phone. The latest nugget of information comes courtesy of Pixel 4a renders from phone case maker ESR, which further confirm what we know about the phone's design. But it also revealed that the Pixel 4a could have wireless charging. One of the render images used to promote ESR's 'Pixel 4a Metal Kickstand Phone Case' shows how the case will allow the phone to still be charged on a wireless pad. While we need to have a degree of skepticism here, as these aren't official renders, it does show that the Pixel 4a could have the wireless charging capabilities of its full flagship stablemates. This is rather surprising, as the Pixel 3a didn't have wireless charging, and no leaks have suggested that the Pixel 4a will charge wirelessly. But such a capability would certainly boost the appeal of Google's upcoming phone and it would help better compete with the iPhone SE 2020. The other renders reaffirm that the Pixel 4a will have a single rear camera, likely with a 12.2MP lens, housed in a square module, as mentioned in previous leaks and rumors. Sadly, this means the Pixel 4a won't have the dual rear cameras of the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL. That means the Pixel 4a could have camera capabilities that are more of an upgrade over the Pixel a rather than a cutdown take on the Pixel 4's rear cameras. That being said, Google's phone photography abilities come courtesy of its skill in computational photography, meaning the Pixel phones have managed to deliver impressive photos with fewer cameras than their rivals. The Pixel 4, for example, delivers photos that mostly triumph those of the Galaxy Note 10 Plus and at times beat the mighty iPhone 11 Pro, which is currently one of our picks for the best phone cameras around. The ESR renders also show off how the Pixel 4a will make us of a punch-hole selfie camera to deliver a display — likey measuring 5.8 inches and using an OLED panel — that has significantly slimmer bezels than the Pixel 4. It does mean there's not likely going to be any space for Google's Soli chip used to power its face unlocking tech in the Pixel 4. No specs were mentioned in the ESR listing. But so far we know that the Pixel 4a will be powered by a Snapdragon 730 chip, which promises decent if not flagship-grade performance — especially if it's combined with 6GB of RAM. Storage is expected to start a 128GB. There's no word on battery size, though we hope it's bigger than the Pixel 3a's 3,000 mAh pack. The Pixel 4a will have to do battle with Apple's iPhone SE in the best value phone arena. Despite being the cheapest iPhone, it comes with the same high-end A13 Bionic chipset as the iPhone 11, has wireless charging, and puts in impressive phone photography with its single 12MP rear camera. In our continuous web surfing test over 4G LTE, the iPhone SE managed a reasonable 9 hours and 18 minutes of battery life; that's not quite enough to make our best phone battery life list. So the Pixel 4a might lose out to the iPhone SE on sheer performance, but it has the opportunity to beat Apple's handset on photography and battery life. And with a more modern design, the Pixel 4a could appeal to people who don't want a smartphone that looks a lot like an iPhone from several years ago. |
