iPhone SE Price in India is NOT $333 ! It's $555 ( Rs 42,500 )


Last week, Apple surprised everyone in the tech industry by launching a $399 iPhone SE 2020 ( 2nd Gen ). Apple is never known for launching phones for affordable prices, so the $399 price tag for a brand new iPhone came as a shocker to many. 

 However, in India, the price of this new iPhone is much higher. According to Apple's ad, the official MRP price for the base model iPhone SE 2 in India is Rs 42,500. If you convert that to US dollars, it is approx $555 for the base model with 64GB storage. That can't be considered a budget iPhone. 

 This is mainly due to the import tax duties and GST taxes Apple has to pay when bringing these new phones to India. Google had to sell its $399 Pixel 3a for a similar price range a while back as well. 

 The SE is, in reality, an iPhone 8 with some internal changes. The main highlight of this phone is that it is powered by Apple's high-end chipset - A13 Bionic. The expensive iPhone 11 Pro Max which is priced above 1 Lakh in India has the same exact chipset. 

 Even though SE has the same camera system as the older 8, it can take much better photos thanks to the A13 Bionic processor on board. Apple is bringing computational photography magic to the new SE, which allowed iPhone 11 series to take fantastic photos in the day time as well as during night time. 

 Specs Highlights
  • 4.7 inches HD IPS LCD Retina Display
  • A13 Bionic
  • IP67 Water-Resistant
  • iPhone 8 Design and Build 
  • WiFi 6
  • iOS 13
  • 12MP F1.8 main camera
  • 4K @ 60fps support

[ 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.

Reduce External Monitor Brightness on Ubuntu 20.04, 21.10

External Monitors are a great addition to any workspace. I have a Full HD Benq one connected with my laptop via HDMI cable to do multi-tasking. 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...
