Today in this section we will talk about the prospects of the iPhone and the next leaks concerning the Google Pixel 4. We will also discuss the nuances of the technical equipment of the Galaxy M30s and information about the HONOR 20S.

Apple has a project to use the iPhone as a walkie-talkie

Many people remember that some models of old push-button telephones could work as a walkie-talkie without requiring access to the cellular network. Recently, it was reported that Apple was developing proprietary technology to enable the iPhone to operate in radio mode.

This was recently reported by The Information resource. According to him, these developments were carried out jointly with Intel. Their codenames were Project OGRS (Off Grid Radio Service) at Apple and Project Shrek at Intel. According to the published information, the technology was not similar to the Wi-Fi app and cellular walkie-talkie functions as in the Apple Watch. There are many programs that can make a walkie-talkie out of a smartphone, but Yabloko took a different path, as it was required to improve the reliability of communication and eliminate dependence on cellular networks.

The description of their technology says that it allows you to create an independent connection between iPhones located far from each other. This will enable users to communicate through text messaging where there is no mobile network coverage. In the future, the capabilities of this technology will be expanded to use voice communication.

It's not hard to understand the usefulness of this development. It will allow contacting suppliers in the taiga, rescuers, gas workers and representatives of many other services and specialties. Indeed, even in our time, there are many places on the planet that are not covered by mobile networks.

Such functionality will also be in demand among travelers who now pay big money for communication in roaming conditions.

At this time, it is known that work on this project at Apple has been suspended due to the fact that one of its initiators left them. However, this does not mean at all that they will never return to it. Everything in good time.

Photos of real Google Pixel 4 have appeared on the web
