Earlier this summer, we published the first specifications list and renders for the Huawei Mate 20. That device is powered by the HiSilicon Kirin 980 system-on-chip , a beast of a SoC that was just unveiled by Huawei at IFA. It’s certainly not going to be a cheap phone, so what does Huawei have in store for those who are looking for something new, but more affordable? The Huawei Mate 20 Lite is the answer to that question. Its specifications aren’t as impressive as the larger Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a lot to offer.

Huawei Mate 20 Lite Design and Specifications

The Huawei Mate 20 Life is made of metal and glass with a premium curved edge design. The main focus of the front is the display notch which houses two cameras, an earpiece, and other sensors. There is a chin on the bottom, but it’s not too big.

The rear of the phone also has two cameras along with a fingerprint scanner, all aligned vertically down the center. The primary camera is 20MP, while the secondary is 2MP. Similarly, the front is a 24MP+2MP setup.

Moving back to the front, the Mate 20 Lite has the same size display as the regular version. It’s 6.3-inches with 2340×1080 resolution. The device is powered by the HiSilicon Kirin 710, which is what makes it a “Lite” model. The Kirin 710 debuted on the Huawei Nova 3i . The Mate 20 Lite has 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, however, so it’s not underpowered by any means. Furthermore, the battery capacity is an impressive 3,650 mAh. The device ships with Android 8.1 Oreo with EMUI 8.2.

The Huawei Mate 20 Lite’s rear camera will be equipped with HDR Pro technology, which should make for better colors in photos. And since “artificial intelligence” is the major buzzword these days, the camera features AI scene recognition. The front camera features Huawei’s own version of Apple’s Animojis called “Q Moji.”

Huawei Mate 20 Lite Accessories

Huawei has a few nice looking cases for the Mate 20 Lite. The first is a simple “Protective” case made to reinforce the corners and offer some minimal protection. It’s only available in black. The second case is a little odd looking. It’s called “Smart View Flip” and it only covers half of the display. The other half is used to show the time, date, weather, and notifications. This case is available in black and blue. The last case is a simple wallet case with a single card slot.

Huawei Mate 20 Lite Pricing and Availability

The Huawei Mate 20 will be priced at £379 SIM-free. The device will be available starting on September 5th from Vodaphone and Carphone Warehouse. EE will also get the device in October. It will also be available to purchase from Tesco and Argos eventually. The phone is available in three colors: Black, Blue, and Gold.

Note: Huawei has stopped providing official bootloader unlock codes for its devices. Therefore, the bootloader of the Huawei Mate 20 Lite cannot be unlocked, which means that users cannot flash Magisk /TWRP /Project Treble Generic System Images/AOSP-based custom ROMs.

How to change the PIM of a VeraCrypt volume

The developers of VeraCrypt introduced Personal Iterations Multiplier (PIM) functionality in the encryption program in version 1.12 . PIM stands for "Personal Iterations Multiplier". It is a parameter that was introduced in VeraCrypt 1.12 and whose value controls the number of iterations used by the header key derivation function. PIM is used by volumes even if the creator of the volume did not specify a value. It is an optional component that improves security: it adds another step to the authentication process similarly to two-factor authentication. The main difference is that the PIM value is fixed and not generated on the fly when requested. An attacker needs to know the master password and the PIM, if not set to default, to breach the encryption successfully and access the content of the drive or partition. A couple of good reasons exist to change the PIM value: It was leaked or stolen. The default value is used and that is not as secure as using a custom PIM. Yo...

Huawei Mate 20 Pro launched in India with Kirin 980 for ₹69,990 ($988)

The 5 Best Free IPTV Apps to Watch Live TV on Android

It’s easier than ever to watch on-demand TV shows and movies on your Android device. But what about live TV? Yes, there are services like Sling and PlayStation Vue. However, if you know where to look, you don’t need to subscribe to their expensive plans. You can use free IPTV instead; you just need an IPTV app and an IPTV source. What Is an IPTV App? IPTV apps are a bit like Kodi; they are empty shells that can’t stream any content without some user input. You have the responsibility for adding channels, playlists, and other sources. Typically, you cannot use the apps to watch Netflix, Hulu, or direct content from other third-party providers. Here, we’re not interested in the best on-demand streaming apps or places to watch TV online. We are only looking at the IPTV apps themselves. Specifically, we want to know what the best IPTV apps on Android are. 1. Lazy IPTV Our first pick is Lazy IPTV. It supports M3U playlists in open-view, ZIP, and GZ formats.
