OnePlus Concept One - A Concept Phone from OnePlus Mobiles

At CES 2020, OnePlus has unveiled a Concept Phone called Concept One. The main attractive feature of this phone is the disappearing rear camera tech.

 The OnePlus Concept One is the first phone ever to use color-shifting glass technology - more fancy name to this type of glass is Electrochromic. It can shift colors in an instant, from opaque black to entirely clear and back.


Electrochromism is the phenomenon where the color or opacity of a material changes when a voltage is applied. By doing so, an electrochromic smart window can block ultraviolet, visible or (near) infrared light instantaneously and on demand. - Wikipedia

 Using this tech, you can easily dim the camera lens and achieve an ND Filter effect for your camera. This can be very useful when taking photographs or videos in very bright lighting. Video shooters, who love to create cinematic like footage on smartphone would love this tech, as it allows to slow down the shutter speed.

 A possible future use for this type of tech would be a OnePlus phone with a completely transparent back glass. 


OnePlus in a blog post revealed they made this Concept One phone in coloboration with Mclaren drawing inspiration the tech used in McLaren's 720S luxury sports car, which features a glass roof panel that can alter its tint and control the amount of light allowed through

[ FIX ] Ubuntu 20.04 Bluetooth doesn't Turn On

I have been using a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard for a while now with my Ubuntu 20.04. Everything worked well without any issues until one day the operating system refused to turn on the Bluetooth. I could toggle Bluetooth On button from the Settings, but it did nothing.  After spending some time Google Searching why my Bluetooth started not working all of a sudden, and after trying a variety of commands to troubleshoot the problem, I finally found a working fix for this issue. Open a Terminal ( Ctrl + Alt + T )  and enter below commands one after another.  sudo rmmod btusb sudo modprobe btusb That's it. Your Bluetooth issue would be now solved.  I can guarantee you this problem is going to pop-up every now and then. So copy the above commands to a text file for future uses. Sometimes, even after entering above commands the bluetooth would refuse to turn on. In such cases, just Suspend the system and then wake up it again and check.

What I don't like about this setup is the external screen is still very bright even after setting it to the lowest possible setting via physical buttons present on the monitor. Changing brightness on the Laptop doesn't affect the brightness of the external monitor. However, In Ubuntu, you can adjust the brightness level of any connected monitor by opening up a terminal/command line and entering a few comments. Xrandr is the command we would be using to achieve this. How to change External Monitor Brightness on Ubuntu Linux Open a Terminal ( Ctrl + Alt + T ) Enter the command xrandr -q | grep " connected" and press Enter. Find the external monitor name displayed in this command's output. In my case, it is  HDMI-1 To change the brightness enter this command xrandr --output HDMI-1 --brightness 0.5 and press Ente...
