Windows 11 received a system for automatically adjusting screen brightness. It works differently than on smartphones and tablets
In the latest update to Windows 11 for members of the Insider Program, Microsoft has added a feature to automatically adjust the screen brightness on laptops and PCs. This update is available in Preview Build 23424 and is intended to improve performance under different lighting levels.
The novelty allows you to adapt the screen brightness depending on the content, and not using sensors, as is implemented on mobile devices. To be more precise, when you launch File Explorer with a dark theme and a browser with a white background, the system will reduce the brightness to reduce the strain on the user’s eyes.
In addition, laptops will be able to choose to turn on reduced brightness only when running on battery power.
Note that Windows 10 and 11 already have a Night Light mode that reduces blue light on the screen. It can be enabled manually or automatically depending on the user’s location.
It is not yet reported when the new feature will appear in the release.

They are giving up the iPhone. Motorola reveals 20% of Razr foldable smartphone buyers are ex-iPhone owners
Motorola isn’t even close to being the market leader in foldable smartphones, but its Razr models have proven to be a big draw for iPhone owners.
In an interview with CNet, Allison Yi, head of Motorola’s North American product division, said that of all Motorola’s products, the foldable Razr is the most popular among iPhone owners.
This is definitely the family we have the most iPhone users moving to.
It turns out that 20% of Razr buyers are former owners of Apple smartphones. They are probably attracted by the fresh form factor in which the iPhone is not presented and probably will not be presented for a long time. At the same time, we must remember that we are talking about North America, where, in addition to the Razr, only the Samsung Flip is in this form factor.
Motorola recently unveiled its new foldable smartphones, including the revolutionary cheap (in China) Moto Razr 40, but in the US, only the older Razr Plus (called the Moto Razr 40 Ultra in China) will sell for $1,000.

Still cheaper than any other similar smartphone, but not so revolutionary. Motorola Razr and Razr Plus will be more expensive in the global market than in China
Motorola yesterday introduced foldable smartphones Moto Razr 40 and Moto Razr 40 Ultra, which turned out to be cheaper than all competitors, and the younger model even offers a revolutionary price for this segment at $560. However, these are Chinese prices, and in the global market everything is different, since new items are significantly more expensive there.
To start with, the Moto Razr 40 is called the Razr in the global market, and the Moto Razr 40 Ultra is called the Razr Plus.
In the US, apparently, only the latter will be sold at a price of $1,000. In Europe, they will already ask for 1200 euros for it. The base model Razr will be available in select countries in Europe, Latin America, and Asia, but pricing has not yet been announced. It is expected that it will be around 700-800 euros. It’s still cheaper than other similar smartphones, but not as revolutionary as $560.
