Skullcandy Venue India Price Drops To Rs 9 999 Deal

For most people, the equation above defines the kind of audio Skullcandy offers on its headphones. And it is somewhat true because the audio experience from the brand tips slightly more towards the bass-heavy side. But what if we tell you Skullcandy has a pair of headphones that not only offers slightly balanced sound but also offers ANC and great battery life. And on top of all this, the headphones have recently received a massive price cut, making them in our opinion the best ANC headphones for anyone with a budget below Rs 10,000....

Tech Vs Telecom Companies How Do They Differ

There has been an attempt by tech companies to gain some revenue share from connectivity (telecom) companies while at the same time there’s an attempt by telecom companies to gain some revenue share from tech companies. Google might be a tech company at its core, but Project Fi, Google Fiber, Project Loon etc are definitely the attempts to eat into the revenue share of connectivity providers. Similarly, Verizon is primarily a telecom/broadband provider, but Go90, AOL, Yahoo and Awesomeness TV are attempts by it to branch out of its core business....

The Galaxy Note 7 Fiasco 7 Things Tech Companies Need To Learn

1. React swiftly For a company that churns out devices so quickly and is known for its turn of speed, Samsung’s reaction to the entire “explosive” crisis has tended to be generally on the slow side. Official reactions tended to trickle in hours and some times even days, after reports, giving rumor mills ample time to run amok. In the age of light speed social networking which thrives on negativity and bad news, that was not very clever....

The Most Convenient Way To Share Files Between Mac And Android

I fired up the browser to check if my Mac was suffering from any bug. But to my surprise, Apple doesn’t allow browsing an Android phone’s storage directly. Instead, you have to install a separate tool by Google for doing so. Okay, alright, living with an app by Google won’t be so terrible. Except, it was the most obsolete and disdained app by Google I’ve ever used. That would have been fine as well if it had just worked....

The Oneplus Nord Ce Is Not Really The Successor Of The Nord

Even in the launch presentation, there were references to the original Nord, especially when it came to the “more megapixels” main sensor and the “larger” battery. The stress right through (very subtly, though)was on what you were getting in the new Nord, as compared to the old one. It sounds like a bit of a succession story, right? Nord in name, but not in spec game (kinda sorta) Well, keep those comparisons aside for a while, and the truth will hit you – the OnePlus Nod CE 5G is actually NOT the successor of the OnePlus Nord, except in terms of time (it comes after the Nord, ergo, it is the successor)....

The Surface Pro 4 Diaries Day 4 Great Multimedia Usb Joy But Wait Is This A Tablet

And the results were a bit mixed, to be honest. No, we would not go as far as some worthies who have called the device unusable as a tablet. Au contraire, it is very usable in tablet mode, and once again, we cannot stress how compact and lightweight the device is for something with a 12.3 inch display. Carrying it in our arms was very comfortable, as it is actually shorter than the iPad Pro and well, as the sides are not as curve-y as those of the iPads, it actually feels a lot less slippery – it is actually a lot more comfortable to sit in bed with a Surface Pro 4 minus the Type Keyboard than it is to sit with an iPad Pro....

This Could Be Our First Look At The Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus And Yes It Has A Headphone Jack

The leak brings us a bunch of clear renders which, in addition to confirming recent rumors, reveals a host of fresh details. For starters, the Galaxy S10 Plus will indeed feature Samsung’s new Infinity-O display which essentially means the front sensors like the two selfie cameras will be tucked away in a tiny little notch at the top-right corner. That, of course, leaves room for a lot of screen space and possibly one of the highest screen-to-body ratios....
