The M31s, however, has moved up a level. In many ways. A higher price, and a lot remains similar… The most obvious change in the M31s is its price. Whereas previous members of the M30 family had been priced around Rs 15,000, the M31s takes a big step ahead and starts at Rs 19,499 for the 6 GB/ 128 GB variant and commands a Rs 21,499 price tag for the 8 GB/ 128 GB one....

Samsung has been at the helm of affairs in India for several quarters. As per Canalys, (Also Read: But Seriously, It’s Time to Show Micromax Some Respect) It’s also interesting to note that in Q4 2014, 23% of shipments in India were of devices priced under US$100 (Rs 6,000), while 41% were of devices in the US$100 to US$200 bracket (Rs 6,000 to Rs 12,000)....

Market dipped by more than half Given the fact that the Indian smartphone market for closed for almost forty days during Q2 2020 due to the nationwide lockdown, it is hardly surprising that smartphone shipments dipped significantly.

Strong surge in June indicate a return to normal times There is a silver lining to the “declining shipments” cloud, though....

Bixby will mark its first appearance on the Galaxy S8, and the initial build will stick to the bare minimum. The company also talks about how one could activate the assistant by pressing a dedicated button on the Samsung Galaxy S8. That said, Samsung is yet to reveal the details of how it works and the tasks it can accomplish....

Good Artists Get Banned, Great Artists Get Patents Approved Steve Jobs himself used to say, quoting Pablo Picasso, that good artists copy, great artists steal. Looking at all this patent mess between Apple and Samsung, we realize that in some cases, good artists get banned, and great artists get patents approved, or, the other way around, if you like. From what I can tell, Apple has been one of the most aggressive companies in terms of suing others for alledged patent infringements....

“What’s so special about it?” That has been the call that goes out pretty much every year a new iPhone is released in the Indian market at a premium price. This year has been no different.

Also, there are some SSD models which stand out from the rest, and just to get an idea, you should look at the best SSDs on the market, but you can also find budget models with more modest speeds, which are still blazing fast when compared to magnetic HDDs (an example here would be the Silicon Power Velox V20). But even the best SSDs out there need regular maintenance and tweaks, so they operate at peak performance throughout their lifetime, this is where SSD optimization comes into play....

Twitter has made some changes to its character limit recently one that also excludes the @”name” and the links from the count. But despite all these changes, the character limit is something that still lives on.

The leaks also involve the pricing of the new Nexus 7 and given the fact that we’re nearing Google’s event on July 24, this makes the new information seem pretty legit. Google didn’t announce the successor to the Nexus 7 at its annual I/O conference, therefore we have all the reasons to assume they will do so on the upcoming event, called “breakfast with Sundar Pichai“. If you don’t know, Sundar Pichai now oversees Android’s development after Andy Rubin’s leave....

The core rationale behind the myths and complications revolving around it is the name which translates to “just a browser” for the majority. Principally, that’s true, although Chrome OS, as I mentioned, has received a slew of critical updates recently, making it a substantial competitor in the market. However, under the surface, there are many features users don’t even discover during their usage; hence here’s a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know about Chrome OS....

But of course, yes, at the end of the day, tweets don’t form poems. What if they could, though? A website appropriately titled “The longest poem in the world” makes it possible. The service randomly picks tweets and produces a stream of verses out of them. And it does work. To my surprise, some even made sense in an utterly silly context. One of them read — “I’m convinced I’m nocturnal, Pizza crime is eternal....

Therefore, it’s more crucial than ever that before investing in an Apple device, you research well and find the cheapest deal even if that means calling up that cousin you haven’t talked to in years. A website called The Mac Index wants to alleviate at least a portion of this process and it’s doing so by compiling pricing of all Apple products (including a few accessories) across the globe.
