mate-20-x




While the name itself is very hard to take seriously in every possible way, the upcoming Huawei Mate 20 X could both figuratively and literally be a game changing device. It has been a while since companies truly tested the old debate about "how big is too big," but the Mate 20 X is certainly asking that question! Featuring a mammoth 7.21" OLED display, this is not just a flagship device with all the bells and whistles, it brings something completely new to the plate too. Apparently, Huawei has developed this giant to cater to the needs of mobile gamers and while it's not out yet, it would be safe to say that this does look VERY promising. The OEM is even going to sell exclusive joysticks for the phone separately, similar to the Nintendo Switch console. To know what we are talking about, take a look at the most impressive specs below.


·        Kirin 980 SoC with graphene-based cooling system


·        7.21" 2244 x 1080 FHD+ OLED display (HDR) with a dew drop notch


·        5000mAh battery


·        40 MP (f/1.8, 27mm (wide), 1/1.7") + 20 MP (f/2.2, 16mm (ultrawide), 1/2.7") + 8 MP (f/2.4, 80mm (telephoto), ¼", 5x optical zoom)


·        24 MP f/2.0, 26mm (wide) selfie camera


·        Color options: Midnight Blue, Phantom Silver


·        Compatible with stylus and gamepad, which will be sold separately


·        Available for Preorder from October 26

The Revenant

 

Director Alejandro G. Iñárritu's Academy Award-winning film Birdman is a dark comedy set almost entirely in one theater and shot to look like a single take. Iñárritu's follow-up film is pretty much the polar opposite of that, although it's Oscar ambition seems equally apparent.

 

The Revenant

 

The Revenant, "inspired by true events," stars Leonardo DiCaprio as Hugh Glass, a 19th century frontiersman who was mauled by a bear and left for dead by his expedition group (which includes Tom Hardy). The trailer is heavy on tension, ambience, beards, drums, and heavy breathing.

Samsung just unveiled a 10nm LPDDR4 6GB DRAM meant for mobile devices at the Samsung Mobile Solutions Forum 2016 in Shenzhen, China recently. Since in 2016, the only upcoming device from the South Korean manufacturer that is worthy of such an upgrade is the Galaxy Note 6, we are pretty sure that is where it will make its debut.


It would be an intelligent guess if we were to say that the same RAM will also be seen on the Samsung Galaxy S8 in 2017. Right now though, we are excited about the Galaxy Note 6. The rumors that are encircling the phablet are awe-inspiring to say the least. A Snapdragon 823 processor that's more powerful than the SD 820, 6GB of LPDDR4 DRAM, 5.8-inch Super AMOLED QHD display and all this powered through a system that consumes less power than its previous iterations!


The software is in its developmental stage though, as per reports and would likely be based on Android N. It will be interesting to see how much of these rumors the Note 6 lives up to, when it is unveiled in August (probably). However, if the newly confirmed 6GB RAM is any indication, then we would be obligated to say that the rumors are pretty spot on these days!

The Google Pixel and Pixel XL were without a doubt, the fastest phones running on Android in 2016 and early 2017. While that title might be up for debate now with the launch of a number of smartphones with the next gen flagship processors in 2017, they continue to remain two of the fastest phones that you can buy. In terms of software optimization and camera performance however, they are arguably, still unmatched. With all that said and done, if there was only one gripe about those two smartphones, it would be the design. They just look so outdated compared to the competition, especially with those giant top and bottom bezels. Well, the bad news is that the design may not change much unfortunately.


If the latest report by Forbes turns out to be true, then HTC will be making this year's Pixel phones as well and they will largely reflect the same disappointing design language as that of the HTC U11. In order to find out more about how HTC Soku came to this conclusion by going through the U11's system files, check out the Forbes article here.

Oppo has been in the smartphone industry for almost 10 years now. They have given us some of the most innovative and feature-rich phones in the market. Among the company's series of devices, the Find series has pushed many limits of creativity. It has some of the best flagship phones of the company as well. As in 2020, the company released a new OPPO Find X2 series this week.

 

OPPO released Find X in 2018 and joined the early pop-up cameras trend. But instead of giving only the pop-up mechanism to the front camera, the company also placed its dual rear camera system on this pop-up module. The smartphone had highly-advanced hardware to deliver really fast processing speed, and also replaced 3D face recognition technology with the fingerprint scanner. The Find X also brought Super VOOC flash charging technology, which eventually became the norm.


Now, it's time for Find X3 series, which is ready to set all-new benchmarks with its ground-breaking display quality and a powerhouse of loaded features giving a true flagship experience. Both the phones feature a 6.7-inch display and a whopping 120Hz refresh rate. With the ultra-fast Snapdragon 865 chipset and 5G network capability, the devices are well equipped to lead the charge into the future. The series has been ranked among smartphones offering the ‘Best Flagship Performance in April 2020' by AnTuTu.


The display made has already given its display panel A+ approval rating. The smartphone has also received eye comfort certification from TUV Rheinland as the phone cuts down the emission of harmful blue light to reduce to strain on your eyes. The phone has 65W super VOOC 2.0 technology that is equipped with ultra-fast charging. The standard model has 4,200mAh battery, whereas the pro model comes with a 4,260mAh battery.


Sony WF-1000XM3 Earbuds

 

Wireless earbuds have taken over the market over the years.

You can choose from hundreds of wireless earbuds and enjoy the freedom that they offer. I personally believe that wireless earbuds became popular because they have no wires.

Without wires running between your phone and headphones, you're free to do whatever you want and go wherever you want while listening to your favorite music.

Wireless earbuds are handy for everyday life and commuting. They're also perfect for sporty people who want to listen to their favorite songs while training.

Nowadays, wireless earbuds have true wireless designs. This means that they don't come with a cable or neckband connecting them together. They look like earplugs.

Other advantages of truly wireless earbuds include noise-canceling tech, carry cases and touch controls. The carry cases can be used as portable chargers.

What I like most about true wireless earbuds, is that some of them have a built-in heart rate monitor. If you're a fan of true wireless earbuds and want to buy a pair, you're in the right place.

Selecting the right pair can be overwhelming with so many products on the market but I'm here to help. After hours of research, I have found the 3 best true wireless earbuds for android phones.

Bitcoin-decentralized-truly

 

Introduction

As of Dec 2019, there were more than 3000 formally recognized cryptocurrencies in the world! That means that in less than a decade, over three thousand companies, individuals and crypt ecosystems have been founded. 

All of them have been competing with the first one- Bitcoin. When Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin way back in October 2008, no one had expected the cryptocurrency rage to linger for a decade. However, Bitcoin continues to not only corner the market, but also dominate it comfortably with over 70% market share in the entire crypto world. 

In this article, we will look at why Bitcoin is superior to every other cryptocurrency out there in the market. In addition, we will also shed some light on Bitcoin's greatest feature- its decentralization. 

Why Bitcoin continues to dominate the Crypto ecosystem in 2020?

According to experts, the viability and value of a financial asset is determined by the amount of time it has seen. Now you might say that ten years is not a long enough time to proclaim Bitcoin a success. However, if you look at Bitcoin's competition, you will think that Bitcoin quite an old phenomenon. 

Ever since 2011, other companies and tech gurus have experimented with different cryptocurrencies of their own. IxCoin, Tenebrix and Solidcoin were some of the earliest competitors to Bitcoin. All of them came up in 2011. They hoped of taking investors away from Bitcoin. Within a few years, all of them winded up their operations. 

Two others, Litecoin and Namecoin also came up around the same time. However, Litecoin continues to enjoy some form of popularity in the asset and investor market. 

Why the absence of Satoshi Nakamoto was a boon to Bitcoin's success?

One of the major reasons why people prefer Bitcoin as compared to other cryptocurrencies is because there is no concept of ‘Premine'. Premine essentially means that a previously arranged or specific number of coins will be accrued to the Founder first and then start the networking process. 

Many investors who want to associate with the concept of a truly decentralized currency do not want to go in for premine. They do not see any value there. By disappearing Nakamoto ensured two things-

  1. Complete decentralization

  2. Avoiding extra taxes on cryptocurrencies. 

You will notice that practically all major alt coins take some kind of dev fee, maintenance fee, storage tax, etc. This literally translates into the same thing as traditional fiat currency. Why would you want to create a digital/crypto and then burden it with the same moulding of taking transaction fee?

Bitcoin did not do that. This made it a truly one-of-a-kind decentralized currency, which worked between sender and receiver. By not having a central figurehead, every concerned party in Bitcoin will have to create and manage the consensus within the system. 

Is Bitcoin's Decentralization going to fuel its success in the future?

The brief answer to this is ‘YES"! In the last few years, especially in 2019, Bitcoin has started showing signs of maturity. The investors in the Bitcoin ecosystem are also showing signs of maturity. In other words, the volatility associated with the hugely profitable bitcoin code is seeing some form of stable investments. 

According to many, this signified Bitcoin's coming of age moment. Experts state that 2020 is going to be a great year for Bitcoin. This is because the famous ‘Bitcoin Halving' is expected to happen in May 2020. The year 2029 also saw more and more investors taking their assets out of altcoins and investing them in Bitcoins. 

There is a belief that if national governments are going to engage with cryptocurrencies in the future, they are only going to have a dialogue with Bitcoins, and no other cryptocurrencies.
