In this article, let’s take a look at all the things we know about the V11 and V11 Pro. 1. In-Display Fingerprint Scanner Let’s start with the obvious. Vivo has been a pioneer when it comes to under-the-display fingerprint scanners and has improved the technology over time. The V11 Pro will carry the 4th generation In-Display Fingerprint Scanning technology enabling a seamless FullView display from top to bottom. More on the display later in the article....

The biggest sporting event of the year, NFL Super Bowl XLIX will take place on Sunday, February 1, starting 6:30 pm ET. The Seattle Seahawks take on the New England Patriots at University of Phoenix Stadium, Glendale, Arizona. Over the past several years, people have been looking for proper ways to watch the Super Bowl live online, but were usually forced to look for shady live streaming services. Luckily, this year, NBC will be airing the Super Bowl live for anyone with a computer or iPad/iPhone, for no charge at all....

I thought for a long while that news aggregators could be the solution of delivering curated information, to our mind’s doorstep, but somehow I got disappointed. I still believe news agreggators should transform content curation into art, but I realize that we will be left with search engines and it will take a lot of time until more liberal mechanisms will be invented. Which Search Engine Delivers The Most Needed Information?...

We wish we had a penny for every time we have been asked that question every time someone has updated their device to a new version of an OS. Yes, there is the usual bug-busting and the ironing out of rough spots and “performance enhancements”, but when a major OS update is rolled out, the first thing that most people want to know is what exactly is new about it....

Update: The WhatsApp Business Profiles are already live. The below screenshot was shared by our reader, Jatin Sapra, which shows, 1mg, an online pharmacy business in India interacting with their customers on Whatsapp. You can see a Green Tick mark next to their name indicating it’s a verified business. There is also an option to stop receiving updates by replying ‘DND ON’. Earlier: The basis for all of this is a support page titled “Verified Business Accounts”, a page that is nestled in the support website....

No, there are a couple of logical links which has led to this profound trend. The factor which has had the most critical impact on this shift is China’s smartphone market itself. You see, the majority of these new phones are from Chinese OEMs, and that’s no coincidence. Even Razer, which while is based out of the United States, has a significant share in regions like Hong Kong as far as gaming equipment is concerned....

Humans are known to be resistant towards change. More often than not, we are so used to the operating system on our phones that we are reluctant to change to another one. Personally, I have been an avid iPhone user since the past 4 years. There have been times when I did get bored of it and switched to Android. You could read about my experience here. I get a lot of flak for using an iPhone but I’m equally equipped with comments to diss Android....

The Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 comes equipped with a 5.99-inch IPS LCD display, and the device now offers 18:9 aspect ratio as opposed to the 17:7 offered by the Mi Mix. On a related note the 18:9 aspect ration has now become quite popular with Samsung, LG and other OEM’s using it on their smartphones. In all likelihood, the new aspect ratio might also help achieve better ergonomics. The Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 is powered by Snapdragon 835 paired with 6GB of RAM....

The first thing I noticed is the 18:9 display with thin bezels. This also means that the phone is taller than its predecessor but again the back panel design is pretty much the same as the Redmi Note 4. On a related note, it’s very likely that the Redmi Note 5 may be powered by a Snapdragon 630. That apart let’s take a quick look at the Redmi Note 5 Specifications, 5....

Not much between first and second gen…and that’s ok When Apple first launched the AirPods in 2016, many dismissed them just by the looks of these totally wireless earphones (“EarPods with the wires snipped off,” some sneered) but the AirPods actually turned out to be quite a bit of a hit. And that legacy continued even with the AirPods 2, the ones that are now the base model of the range officially available out there in the market....

But now, Trusteer, a security company has prepared a report which states that Zeus is aimed at customers of 15 unnamed US banks. Not just the credit card information, it even captures social security and card numbers, and PIN or card verification codes. An established user would not, presumably, be vulnerable unless they entered the password they created when they signed up originally. Sadly, Anti malware detection of Zeus has a poor track record....

This small device which can be worn around the neck like a pendant consists of inexpensive, off-the-shelf hardware. Two cables connect an LED mini-projector and webcam to a Web-enabled mobile phone, but the system can easily be made wireless as per Pranav. All the boring informational stuff will come later. Let us first jump into this amazing video. Make sure you watch it till the end. Video is courtesy TEDIndia....

https://youtu.be/3dJCroCMBPM 2 minute 53 seconds of sheer mushy vibes “Share Your Gifts” is a 2-minute-53-second long ad that is all animation. The ad revolves around a young woman who lives with her dog. It begins with the woman working on her MacBook, creating something. She then prints it out, looks at it and puts it in a box and locks it. The ad then builds the personality of the protagonist, her life at work, travel, meetups with friends, and then brings it all back to her home again, where she is always seen creating something on her MacBook (on another day, we would have wondered if she does not think that the iPad Pro is computer enough but shush, just sense the mush)....

So much phone ogling! The 40 second ad titled, “Experience Brilliant Style,” starts with a small group of guys at a restaurant or cafe all set to dive into this one phone that Vicky Kaushal holds in his hands (such is the level of attention that they are paring to it) but a hint of the conversation taking place at another table grabs their attention. Kaushal turns around and finds a small group of girls looking right at their table adoring something (well, he assumes it is him)....

Mass Effect 2 is scheduled to be released on Tuesday, i.e 26th Jan 2010 in America and just 4 days before its official release, it was leaked on to the torrent websites for free download. Both the PC and Xbox-360 versions are available and being downloaded in full swing. This is really a shame and a huge loss for the gaming industry. TorrentFreak reports that the PC version of the game is about 14GB in size, while the XBOX 360 version is about 13GB....

Up front, the Meizu M5 packs a 5.2-inch FHD display with a 2.5 Curved Glass on top. The latest budget smartphone sports the characteristic Meizu design with a polycarbonate shell to the back, that curves gently towards the edges. Just like recent generation Meizu smartphones, the M5 doesn’t come with any antenna lines on the rear. The front, however, features an mTouch 2.1 fingerprint sensor that’s integrated with the rectangular home button....

As mentioned initially, the all-new Mi Band 5 comes with a new charging mechanism. For, the tracker now features two nodes at the bottom that attach to the new magnetic charging dock and do not require the need to remove the tracker from the strap and align it with the cradle, as with the previous versions. Thus, making the charging experience hassle-free. Moving to the display, the Mi Smart Band 5 comes with a 1....

The attendees will get a RVSP notification (or an email if they don’t have the app installed) to which they can respond by suggesting various times that will work out for them as well as the invitees. The app lets you sign up from virtually any email account and invite anyone from your address book and settle with a time that the whole group can vote on. So the idea behind this app is not just to simplify the meetings but also to respect everyone’s calendar, something that the other email clients fail to do efficiently....

The updates trickle down to the devices only after the manufacturers write the drivers for the hardware which is usually closed source making it increasingly difficult for the OEMs to support the device. If the device has not been popular, irrespective of the price tag, manufacturers usually tend to skip them from the update list. Now adding to the problem is the fact that even the carriers are involved in this entire affair and they are often responsible for the snail paced update seeding process....

The laptop comes with the latest Intel processors, Nvidia GeForce GPU with GDDR5 memory and 12 hours of battery life. There’s a precision glass trackpad onboard with 5 points of touch. Microsoft claims that it gets the best-in-class key stroke and it also features backlit keys for those moments when you have to work at night. They are also very, very silent, stable and comfortable. Also, it seems that the trackpad has been “optimized by the Windows 10 engineering team,” which is something that we don’t see too often....
