The new Android world record holder scored almost a million points in the popular benchmark
A few days ago, Lenovo announced that the presentation of the new Lenovo Legion 2 Pro gaming smartphone will take place on April 8 this year, and now the device has been tested in the popular Master Lu benchmark.
According to Master Lu, Lenovo Legion 2 Pro scored 962,155 points, becoming the most productive smartphone of our time. The previous record was briefly held by the Asus ROG Phone 5. The tested smartphone is equipped with a Snapdragon 888 single-chip system, 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of flash memory. It is also confirmed that the smartphone will be offered in versions with 12/128 and 12/256 GB of memory.
Chen Jing, general manager of Lenovo’s China mobile phone business, said the Lenovo Legion 2 will be the world’s most powerful, innovative and coolest gaming phone. The device has been certified by the 3C regulator, which confirms that the top version of the Lenovo Legion 2 Pro will support 130W charging.
The smartphone has 14 temperature sensors that monitor heating in real time and regulate the operation of the cooling system. The smartphone will not overheat even during long gaming sessions thanks to the dual fans.
Google is preparing to introduce an innovation that will delight many users of the mobile version of the proprietary Chrome browser.
We are talking about the ability to remove the Discover ribbon (Recommendations) from the Chrome New Tab page. On mobile versions of the Google Chrome browser, the new tab page currently hosts a search bar, most viewed websites, and two content feeds. One of them is the traditional Google Discover channel (Google Recommendations), which shows a list of articles recommended for the user by Google algorithms.
Soon, the browser should be able to remove this feed – using a special flag #feed-ablation, which will appear on the chrome://flags page. It’s already available in an early test build of Chrome Canary, and is expected to be released with the release of stable Chrome 103 next month.

WhatsApp will stop working on iPhone 5 and iPhone 5C. From autumn, the messenger will not be supported on iOS 10 and iOS 11
According to the WABetaInfo resource, which tracks all the innovations in the messenger, the application developers will stop supporting devices running iOS 10 and iOS 11 this year. This will happen on October 24th.
Thus, in the fall, WhatsApp will stop working on smartphones such as the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5C. This data is confirmed by the WhatsApp Help Center, which indicates that the application requires iOS 12 (and higher) and Android 4.1 (and higher) to work.
Apple is expected to unveil iOS 16 at WWDC 2022 in June. It will introduce many new features, but at the same time, the new OS will not be supported by a number of the company’s popular phones – iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus and first generation iPhone SE.

Even Windows 11 has already been updated to Android 12.1. Microsoft has updated the subsystem Windows Subsystem for Android
Microsoft continues to develop the idea of combining Windows and Android. Recently, the company announced the release of an update to the Windows Subsystem for Android subsystem for its current OS.
One of the main innovations is the transition to Android 12.1 (12L). The current public version is based on Android 11. Initially, the update is only available through the Dev Channel. When it will become available to everyone is still unclear.
Microsoft notes that updating to Android 12.1 may result in some apps not running. She does not specify which ones, but it probably refers to some old programs.
The update also strengthens the integration of Android into Windows. For example, pop-up messages are first displayed as Windows notifications. The taskbar now shows if an Android app is accessing your microphone or location.
The company also states that Android apps should work better after waking the computer from standby. Instead of restarting, they should just resume where they left off.
