Realme confirms that Realme X50 5G already supports NavIC, as will just about every new phone that launches this year

-

It was just a couple of days ago that Xiaomi India Head, Manu Jain announced that their next Redmi phone wil support ISRO's India’s satellite navigation system, almost immediately, arch rival company Realme announced that their smartphone already supports NavIC.

As per a tweet by Realme India head Madhav Sheth, Realme's latest smartphone Realme X50 5G (Review) already supports NavIC technology and their upcoming phones will support that as well. He further revealed that they are launching another smartphone on 5 March that will also have this feature.

It's just a little bit silly that companies are fighting over ownership of the title of "first phone with NavIC", especially because the new generation of smartphone chipsets all support NavIC by default and it's just a matter of time before the market is flooded with NavIC supporting phones.

Why NavIC is a big deal?

NavIC — Navigation with Indian Constellation — is the regional geo-positioning system designed in India by ISRO to provide accurate positioning in India and around the Indian mainland. It is considered to be at par with US-based GPS, Russia's Glonass, and Galileo developed by Europe.

Jeep has unveiled the facelifted Jeep Compass in India, ahead of its launch in the next month.

These will be a three-row derivative of the Compass and CKD versions of the Wrangler 4x4 and the upcoming new-gen Grand Cherokee.

Apple pays Russia a fine of $13.7 million, imposed for abusing its dominant position on the App Store

-
Apple has settled a Russian fine of 1.2 billion roubles ($13.65 million), according to Russia’s FAS antitrust agency. The fine was imposed due to allegations of Apple abusing its dominant market position in relation to in-app payments, as per a report by Reuters. Apple had previously expressed a “respectful disagreement” with the FAS ruling, contending that the distribution of apps through its iOS operating system did not unfairly favour its products. Russia’s anti-monopoly watchdog, FAS, announced on Monday that it received the payment following a November ruling. The ruling found Apple guilty of preventing app developers from informing customers that they could make purchases outside of the App Store. The payment will contribute directly to the Russian budget, supporting the government’s financial needs amid increased defense spending related to the conflict in Ukraine. This dispute between Apple and Russia’s competition regulator predates the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022

Layoffs continue at Amazon, tech giant terminates over 180 people from gaming division

-
E-commerce giant Amazon continues to face issues with its staff for months as it continues to lay off people. Just days after Amazon laid off people from a different team, the internet giant’s gaming division is undergoing a significant restructuring, resulting in the elimination of 180 jobs and the closure of two business units. The company is shutting down the Crown Channel, a platform on its live streaming site Twitch that featured gaming celebrities providing variety-show entertainment. Additionally, the Game Growth unit, which assisted creators in promoting their gaming titles, is also being shuttered. The decision to streamline operations is part of Amazon’s strategic shift towards concentrating on game development and distribution through its Prime subscription service, say sources close to the management. Christoph Hartmann, Amazon’s Vice President of Games, outlined the changes in a memo to the staff, emphasising the company’s commitment to meeting customer preferences. “We
