OnePlus 11 render gets leaked along with rumoured specs

We've heard about the OnePlus 11's colour scheme a few days ago, but now we're getting a closer look at what leakers @OnLeaks and Gadget Gang claim is the official render of the phone. We see the return on the alert slider, wraparound camera bar, and more prominent Hasselblad logo.

Aside from showing the device renders, the duo claims these are the specs to expect on the OnePlus 11. It'll supposedly come with a high refresh rate 6.7-inch QHD+ AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, up to a whopping 16GB RAM, and a 5,000mAh with 100W charging included. At the rear, the OnePlus 11 is expected to come with a 50-megapixel main sensor, 48-megapixel ultrawide, and 32-megapixel 2x telephoto. The selfie camera is said to be a 16-megapixel lens. Previous reports claim it'll be one of the first to adopt UFS 4.0 storage. It's also likely to run on OxygenOS 13.1. The release of the phone should be happening in the first quarter of 2023.

Recent iPhones can measure heights instantly

Here's a party trick for iPhones with a LiDAR Scanner. You can use the rear camera to get someone's height. This works with the iPhone 12, 13, and 14 Pro and Pro Max models. To measure your height or someone else's you need to use the Measure app. Then you can point your iPhone at the person you want to measure. They should be visible from head to toe. After a few moments, you should see a line with the person's height at the top of their head. You can choose to have the measurement displayed in feet and inches or centimetres. There will be a circular shutter button in the bottom-right corner to take a photo of the person with their height measurement.

'Fortnite' Chapter 4 gets Geralt of Rivia, a new island, dirt bikes

Fortnite has finally launched Chapter 4, which brings a new island with new features. Those with this season's battle pass get new unlockable characters, including The Witcher's Geralt of Rivia, Doom's Doom Slayer, The Incredible Hulk (though he's coming soon), and a couple of Fortnite originals including a skater dude named Massai and an axe-wielding girl who loves boba.

The new island features different points of interest, including a citadel housing a character known as "the Ageless," some kind of abandoned farm, and a mine full of new material called kinetic ore. There's a new vehicle in the form of dirt bikes, which is called a "trail thrasher" in the game. You can roll around in a giant snowball, use a flying jellyfish to restore health, acquire a melee weapon called the "shockwave hammer," and more. You can check out the complete list of changes here.

Frictional Games introduces new 'Amnesia: The Bunker'

Frictional Games has introduced a new game into its Amnesia series. Amnesia: The Bunker is the new survival horror title with a semi-open world, sandbox-style gameplay. It looks like it's the first one to introduce guns into the series. For now, there's not much we know about the title beyond this announcement, but it's expected to launch sometime next year on Xbox, PC, and PlayStation.

“For the first time, players are equipped with high levels of freedom to impact gameplay, choosing their playstyle as they explore at will this semi-open world,” Frictional said in the press release. “With hardly any scripted events, and constant tension brought about by an ever-present threat, it is up to each player to finesse their approach to survival.”
