You can now use Apple's AirDrop to share files to and from OnePlus devices, marking a significant shift in cross-platform interoperability. Through the O+ Connect app (available on the App Store), the lack of inter-connectivity between iOS and Android has been bridged, allowing for high-speed, native-feeling file transfers between iPhones and handsets from OnePlus, Oppo, and Realme. This development is not merely for power users with multiple devices; it is designed for any iPhone or OnePlus owner who needs to share files with friends and family on the "opposing" ecosystem. By leveraging a direct Wi-Fi connection (effectively a hotspot), the app facilitates the transfer of videos and photos with zero compression, maintaining original quality, a feat previously hindered by messaging app limitations. To transfer from OnePlus phones, users can simply tap their devices with the iPhone and swipe up to share the file. The iPhone user then needs to tap on the O+ app prompt and hotspot connection prompt, allowing the file to transfer within seconds. For sending files from iPhone to a OnePlus user can tap the "send" button on the O+ app, select the photo or video they wish to send and then simply select the OnePlus device as it shows up on the screen. This "universal bridge" ensures that whether you are at a family gathering or a professional shoot, the brand of smartphone in your hand no longer dictates your ability to collaborate and share memories instantly.

Realme's latest launch, the Realme 16 5G, is a mid-range android smartphone that boasts of some interesting specifications. The device is headlined by a massive 7,000mAh battery, said to deliver a two-day lifespan even under heavy usage, supported by 60W fast charging. Powering the handset is the MediaTek Dimensity 6400 Turbo chipset, paired with a 6.57-inch 120Hz AMOLED display that reaches a peak brightness of 4,500 nits.
