The X50 modem focussed mostly on the smartphones and claimed to offer maximum download speed of 5 gigabits, which is less than the newest offering from the company, which promises to provide as much as 7 gigabits of download speed. In addition to the speed, it also claims to enhance the connectivity among devices and also allow for devices of different categories to be connected together. That surely hints to the fact that we can see the new modem chipset not only on the upcoming 5G-enabled smartphones but also on the Internet of Things (IoT) devices that primarily require various devices to be connected together via the internet....

Sony Xperia 1 II: Design and Display The Sony Xperia 1 II follows a similar design language as the Xperia 1, with a no-notch design that relies on a top-bezel on the top to house the front-facing camera and other essentials, and IP68 water resistance. It comes in three color options: White, Black, and Purple. Towards the front, the device features a 6.5-inch HDR OLED display with 4K resolution and 643ppi pixel density....

So at last, it all comes down to this: how secure is your internet browser? What kind of hidden things it shares? As much as we love to use free services, is there any dark side of this coin we are not aware of? How can we use some little unknown services to prevent ourselves from these brutal hacks? And, what changes you could make to strengthen the security of your browser?...

WhatsApp Messenger – Taking the PIN out of Ping In the begging was messaging, and lo and behold, the company with two B’s from Canada dominated it, with a PIN that was more aspirational than a pin code. They were the likes of Google Talk who offered some token resistance. And then along came Whatsapp in 2009 and changed that. It was an App Store exclusive for a while – Android got it in 2010, after even that double B company!...

Of channeling Steve Jobs. For about an hour at the Siri Fort auditorium in the heart of Delhi, a venue known for holding classical theatre and music events, Hugo Barra proved that he had not just read from the Steve Jobs Book of Presentations but had added his own footnotes to it. This was not the first time that Barra had taken the stage in India, but in the past he had been constrained to smaller spaces – conference halls and cafes....

Needless to say, the sales and discounts have helped the makers of Essential Phone boost the sales. Now one might dispute the numbers and cast their doubt on how accurate is the 50,000 numbers and how would one arrive at the same. As explained by the folks at Android Police the Essential Camera app can be downloaded only by Essential Phone users and thus the deductions. Moreover, the Play Store usually counts the unique number of downloads....

If the imaginary light bulb above your head has still not lit up, let us tell you that we are talking about the number cameras on a smartphone. From one to two to three to four to now five, six and even possibly seven cameras on a single smartphone, the number of cameras on a smartphone only seem to be increasing with time. 2016 was the year when the whole dual camera idea started getting picked up by smartphone manufacturers....

It is a ship that has been spotted by many sailors. For years now, going all the way back to the 18th century. But it has never actually come to any port. No one has been on it. Or seen it from close up. It is surrounded by an odd light. It is a ghost ship. There is no proof that it actually exists. But people – one of them a former King of England (George V) – swear to have seen it....

A Tesla owner, however, seems to have found a more reliable and cheap power source for his mining rig, yes the Tesla itself. The owner has built a setup for GPU’s and is using the free energy that comes with the Supercharge network. Needless to say many have questioned the use of free electric energy for anything else apart from transportation. Apparently, the Tesla Model S owner is sourcing the 2....

Creating backups on the very popular iPhone is pretty simple, just plug it in to your computer and create a backup using iTunes. However, in this, backup contains all the files and information on your phone, and sometimes, you only need part of that information, or if you’ve lost the certain data from your iPhone, and you don’t want to recover all the backup, but just a part of it, then you need a backup extractor for your iPhone....

The name of the brand might be basic but we had high hopes when it comes to the first ad of the newborn baby of these two telecom giants. Both Vodafone and Idea have had some really brilliant ad campaigns that have not only left their marks on network advertising but advertising in general. The “Wherever you go, our network follows you” Vodafone Pug campaign, the “Vodafone Zoo-Zoo” campaign, and “kya idea hai SirJi” from Idea have been some of the most revolutionary ad campaigns in telecom history, hands down....

Vodafone customers are required to purchase the Bharat 2 Ultra at an upfront price of Rs 2,899. Thereafter the customers need to recharge a minimum of Rs 150/month for the next three years. At the end of 18 months, the customers will get a cashback of Rs 900 or Rs 1,000 in if the Vodafone “M-Pesa” valet is chosen. This translates into a total cash back of Rs 1,900 thus the effective pricing for the Vodafone bundled Micromax Bharat 2 Ultra comes to just Rs 999....

In order to get this feature on your Android smartphone, you will have to download the latest version of WhatsApp (v2.12.339) for Android from the official website. The new feature is yet to make its way to the app available on Google Play but we can expect the company to rollout the latest update to Google Play in the near future. The new Starred Messages bookmarking feature can be used by tapping and holding a message which would then be saved in a separate new Starred Messages tab....

We thought the feature has finally been confirmed after few beta revisions and it seemed that WhatsApp will be sticking to the Google Drive backup feature for good. Much to our dismay the latest version of the app 2.12.233 had removed Google Drive backup feature. The Google Drive option is no more accessible when we try to backup the chats whereas the previous versions of the application allowed users to backup not only their conversations but also the image and other media (except for video....

For those of you who are not aware, WhatsApp Plus is a third party app that has all the same features as WhatsApp, but features a more minimalist design, different themes, along with other customization options. However, it still relies on WhatsApp’s servers, which apparently is against WhatsApp ToS. As a matter of fact, WhatsApp has published an official explanation on its website: WhatsApp invites current users of the WhatsApp Plus app to uninstall it and install an authorized version of WhatsApp....
