The first week of September brought more to the rumor mill for the usual suspects. The iPhone 15 series will offer camera upgrades across the board with the 15 and 15 Plus getting all-new 48MP Sony sensors with a stacked design and an f/1.6 aperture. The second shooter on the back will be the same old 12MP, f/2.4 ultrawide. We prepared a more detailed what to expect article which you can check out here.

The 15 Pro will retain the 48MP main shooter from its predecessor but it’s rumored to be joined by an improved 13MP f/2.4 ultrawide lens. The 15 Pro Max will get the biggest update with a new 12.7MP periscope lens (1/1.9″ sensor; f/2.8 aperture) with 5x optical zoom. We also got to see dummy units for all four of the iPhone 15 series devices confirming Dynamic Islands on the non-Pros and the new Action Buttons on the Pro models.

Google showcased the Pixel 8 Pro in full glory on its own website in detailed render form. The flagship Pixel will be available in Licorice, Porcelain and Sky colors and we got more confirmation of the previously leaked design. Google is also rumored to release Android 14 at the Pixel 8 launch event on October 4.

Oppo launched its A38 midranger with a Helio G85 chipset, 50MP main cam, 90Hz IPS LCD and a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W fast charging. The device comes in Black and Gold colors but we still don’t have any pricing and availability details.

Motorola launched the G54 with two version – one for China and a slightly different model for India. Both Motos feature 6.5” IPS LCDs (120Hz), MediaTek’s Dimensity 7020 chipset and 50MP main cams. The Indian model brings a larger 6,000 mAh battery with 33W charging while the Chinese version relies on a 5,000 mAh cell with 15W charging.

Malcolm and Lucy Turnbull announced as investors in US company providing police tech


“If you can actually build a police incident reporting and record management system, and add it to a community model, that is actually going to really improve, I think, outcomes particularly in the field of family and domestic violence,” she said.

Mark43 bills itself as the leading provider of cloud-based records management systems, computer-aided dispatch of personnel, and data analytics platforms for public safety agencies.

Mr Turnbull said the value of integrating information held by government agencies – rather than officers “flying blind” – was highlighted for him during a visit to Tennant Creek when he was prime minister.

“Interestingly, there was a young woman police officer from the Northern Territory Police who had actually taken it on herself, just using an Excel spreadsheet, to start to integrate this kind of data,” he said.

Scott Crouch, a co-founder of Mark43, said the thorough and accessible logging of incidents would also help deal with the well-publicised “trust gap” between communities and police over race relations.

Mrs Turnbull said there were exceptions but police generally did a good job and were a “genuine force for good” in their communities.

NSW Police recently announced it would roll out its Integrated Policing Operating System (IPOS) with Mark43 as a replacement for the ageing systems overseeing triple zero calls, arrests and charges, investigations and forensics.

Deputy Commissioner Mal Lanyon said teaching younger officers how to use some current police systems was like “regression training” and better technology would improve the force’s capacity.

The contract with NSW Police, the third largest police force in the English-speaking world with over 17,500 sworn officers, is part of Mark43’s international expansion. The company currently provides services to 120…
