Microsoft Outlook for Android now supports 2-way sync with Google Calendar and other calendars

The latest update for Microsoft Outlook on Android brings support for 2-way sync between Google Calendar and other calendars. As per a recent report from Android Police on the matter, the feature has already started rolling out to users via a Play Store update, and it supports popular calendar apps like Google Calendar and Samsung Calendar.

Microsoft Outlook’s new 2-way calendar sync feature essentially syncs all your events from various calendar apps to one place. The changelog on the Google Play Store states:

“Want to sync events between Outlook and other calendars on your Android device? Outlook for Android now supports 2-way calendar sync for Microsoft 365, Office 365, and Outlook.com accounts. Events created in other calendar apps (Samsung Calendar, Google Calendar, etc) can now be viewed/edited from Outlook mobile and vice versa!”

While the changelog only mentions Samsung Calendar and Google Calendar, the new feature in Microsoft Outlook should work with other calendar apps. Since syncing is bi-directional, the events you create on Outlook will also be saved on the other calendar app you use. Additionally, any changes you make to your saved events will be synced across all connected app, no matter which app you choose to make the edits on.

If you’re a Microsoft 365, Office 365, or Outlook.com account user, you can try out the new 2-way calendar sync feature by updating to the latest version of Microsoft Outlook from the Play Store link below. In case the update isn’t available for you yet, you can also sideload the APK from APKMirror.

Gmail Go is a less bloated Gmail app that’s now available for all

Google offers quite a few ‘Go’ variants of its apps, which are designed for entry-level devices running Android Go. These include apps like Google Go, Google Assistant Go, Gallery Go, Google Maps Go, Google Camera Go, and many more. The company keeps adding new apps to the lineup ever so often, and it recently released a stripped-down version of the Gmail app on the Play Store. The new Gmail Go app brings a lighter Gmail experience for all devices, featuring just the essentials.

As per a recent 9to5Google report, the Gmail Go listing on the Play Store is nearly identical to that of the regular Gmail app, except for the new icon with a “Go” badge at the bottom. The listing specifies that Gmail Go offers the “Gmail you love, now lighter and just fast,” but it still features the same screenshots as the regular version. However, the app itself is quite different from the full-blown Gmail app.

Gmail Go’s UI follows the same structure as the regular app, but it doesn’t include quite a few features. For instance, the app doesn’t feature a bottom bar because Google Meet has not been integrated into the app. The app’s UI elements are also flatter when compared to the regular Gmail app, with no layering or shadows. Instead, it makes use of a white outline for the search bar and Compose button to help them stand out.

Additionally, the report claims that the frame rate of the app has been capped so much so that it results in a perceptible lag when you scroll through the app. This is most likely a performance optimization that will benefit devices with low-end specifications. As mentioned earlier, the app isn’t restricted to Android Go devices and it’s available for all users. In case you’re not a fan of the regular Gmail app, you can give Gmail Go a shot by downloading it form the Play Store link below. In case the app isn’t available on your device, you can sideload it from APKMirror.

Here are the official OnePlus 8T renders from all angles

Over the last several weeks, we’ve seen a barrage of leaks and teasers about the upcoming OnePlus 8T. And so far, we’ve learned a fair bit about the upcoming device. We already know that the OnePlus 8T will feature a flat display with a hole-punch cutout and a max refresh rate of 120Hz. The device will feature Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 865 Plus chip and a quad-camera setup comprised of a 48MP primary sensor, a 16MP wide-angle sensor, a 5MP macro camera, and a 2MP depth sensor.

Furthermore, we’ve seen renders of the device that showcase a design similar to the OPPO A72. And, on top of all that, a prematurely-published Amazon listing for the OnePlus 8T has confirmed that it will feature a 6.55-inch FHD+ display. OnePlus has also gone ahead and revealed some details about the display on the device, including its touch sampling rate of 240Hz, its JNCD of around 0.3, 100% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage, HDR 10+ support, a flicker-detect sensor, 8,192 levels of brightness adjustment, and enhanced blue light filtering. The company has also shared that the device will feature a 4,500mAh battery and support for 65W fast wired charging.

Now, just a few days ahead of the launch, OnePlus has unveiled an official render of the Aquamarine Green variant of the OnePlus 8T, and Chinese e-tailer JD.com has put up a listing for the device with renders that give us a clear look at it from all angles.

In a blog post on the OnePlus Community forums, the company’s CEO Pete Lau has shared a video showcasing the Aquamarine Green variant of the OnePlus 8T. Lau has also shared some interesting tidbits about the months-long process that resulted in this new finish. In the post, Lau notes:

“After exploring countless iterations with different CMFs (color, material and finish) for more than 4 months, we achieved a breakthrough and produced a remarkable glossy back cover for the new Aquamarine Green variant of the OnePlus 8T. This version takes advantage of diffuse reflection, a form of light refraction that scatters light in an expansive array of angles and directions, to produce a clean, gleaming surface that effectively mitigates the buildup of fingerprints.”

While the video shared by Lau only gives a brief glimpse of the Aquamarine Green OnePlus 8T, a JD.com listing for the device includes official renders of the new color variant from all angles.

Along with these official renders, a leaked render of the Lunar Silver variant of the OnePlus 8T has also surfaced online. This color variant seems to have a matte finish, as opposed to the glossy finish of the Aquamarine Green variant.

OnePlus is scheduled to launch the OnePlus 8T on October 14th. The company is also expected to unveil the OnePlus Buds Z alongside its next-gen flagship.

Samsung launches the Galaxy F41 with an Exynos 9611 and 6000mAh battery

Samsung on Thursday introduced the Galaxy F41 in India, in what the company is describing is a device for “the lifestyle of young Gen Z and millennial consumers.” The device was developed in partnership with India’s Flipkart and is the first under the new mid-range F Series.

The Galaxy F41 features a 6.4-inch Full HD+ sAMOLED Infinity U display (meaning it has a notch), a 6000mAh battery, and a triple-camera setup. There’s a main 64MP camera, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 5MP depth lens for portrait shots. Samsung said the Galaxy F41 supports the company’s “Single Take” feature that takes ten different pictures — seven photos and three videos — with a single click.

The device also comes equipped with an Exynos 9611 Octa-core processor, 6GB of RAM, and up to 128GB of internal storage that can be expanded to 512GB. The whole package features a glossy gradation back panel that comes in Fusion Black, Fusion Blue and Fusion Green.

Additionally, the device comes equipped with a rear fingerprint sensor, supports face unlock, and features Android 10 with One UI 2.
