Starlink satellite internet successfully tested at speeds over 2,000 km/h
The first (and not very successful) orbital flight of the SpaceX Starship took place in April, but interesting details about it are still emerging. So, as it turned out, a special “dish” of the Starlink satellite Internet system was installed on Starship – all data was transmitted to Earth through it, including video broadcasting and telemetry.
SpaceX herself spoke about the successful test of Starlink on the Starship rocket. The company reported that “Starlink set an altitude and speed record for use in flight during Starship’s first flight test, providing communications at over 123,600 feet [почти 38 км] and while flying at Mach 1.7“.
That SpaceX wanted to test Starlink on its mighty Starship rocket was no surprise: even before the April launch of Starship, the Starlink system featured in a number of regulatory documents and images of SpaceX rockets, but it was not completely clear whether the system would be installed in Starship. In fact, it turned out that it was not only installed, but also successfully tested.

Hyundai Tucson 2024 appeared on the road for the first time

Hyundai cannot be stopped: the company releases new products one after another. The next one should be the updated Tucson crossover. The car is already being tested on public roads in Europe.
The car is tightly wrapped in camouflage – the company does not want to “shine” innovations in the exterior ahead of time. However, we can say that both the front and rear parts will change. At the front, there will likely be new headlights and a new grille design. There may also be some innovations in the design of the front panel. Interestingly, they are testing the Tucson with a trailer, and quite a heavy one, judging by the number of axles.
It is difficult to say whether there will be any innovations in terms of units. Most likely, if any changes occur, they will be minor ones – like new engine control firmware. The current Tuscon is offered with both internal combustion engines and hybrid versions – conventional and plug-in hybrid. All these options will remain in the updated car.

The most autonomous of the iPhone 15 line was not the 15 Pro Max. The test showed that the new models are very good

Popular blogger Mrwhosetheboss with 16.4 million subscribers on YouTube decided to compare the autonomy of the new iPhones with previous generations.
The new line was presented in its entirety in the test, and from the old ones the iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPhone 14 and iPhone 13 Pro Max were taken.
At the initial stage, the iPhone 15 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro Max took the lead, while the iPhone 15 Pro immediately became an outsider. The iPhone 15 Plus also performed well, lagging behind the leaders quite a bit.
Further, during the testing process, the worst model did not change, but the iPhone 15 Pro Max began to overtake its “grandfather”. At the same time, at what point did the leader change altogether – it unexpectedly became the iPhone 15 Plus.
When the iPhone 15 Plus reached the 50% charge mark, the iPhone 15 Pro Max had 44%, the iPhone 13 Pro Max remained at 41%, and the iPhone 15 Pro only retained 24%, that is, half the leader. At the same time, the outsider also changed – it became the iPhone 14 with 22%.
As a result, it was the iPhone 14 that was eliminated first with a result of 9 hours of screen operation. The iPhone 15 Pro was marginally better: 9 hours and 20 minutes. The iPhone 15 was the third to drop out, but it lasted almost 10 hours. The iPhone 14 Pro Max lasted another hour longer.
iPhone 13 Pro Max closed the top three with a result of 11 hours and 19 minutes, in second place was the iPhone 15 Pro Max with a result of 11 hours and 41 minutes, but the leader in the end was still the iPhone 15 Plus, which worked for an incredible 13 hours and 19 minutes.
Thus, the new generation as a whole has shown itself to be better in terms of autonomy than the previous one, and the result of the iPhone 15 Plus is absolutely amazing.

No near-inch sensors in the new Pixels. Pixel 8 and 8 Pro look set to retain ISOCELL GN1 sensor

Another promotional video for Google Pixel 8 smartphones has leaked online, along with the characteristics of all the cameras of the upcoming new products. In addition, the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro are already directly showcased on the Google Store homepage along with the Pixel Watch 2.
To begin with, it is worth noting that both older new Google products look more rounded than the current generation. And the other day we saw the Pixel 8a, which looks the same.
As for the camera, unfortunately it looks like the main sensor remains the same. There is no name, but the characteristics are the same as the ISOCELL GN1: 50 MP resolution and 1/1.31-inch optical format. This is a fairly large sensor, but still, the new Pixel was previously credited with a larger GN2 optical format of 1/1.12 inches.
The Pixel 8’s ultra-wide-angle camera also appears to be unchanged. At least it’s the same 12 megapixels. But the Pixel 8 Pro will have a resolution of 48 megapixels. Also, the older model will be equipped with a 48-megapixel sensor with a periscope telephoto lens with five times zoom.
Thus, in the new generation, the Pixel 8 Pro will be more different in terms of camera from the Pixel 8 than in the case of the current pair of Google flagships.
