I consider tablets to be used in medicine, architecture, engineering and not so much in the day to day life, maybe because I’m just a bit old school and I like PCs, but nonetheless, regardless of my opinion, the iPad remains the number 1 tablet PC in the world, and it seems the future will see even more tablets.

FaceApp utilizes neural networks for transforming your face’s appearance and allows altering expressions such as adding smiles, making it look old or like a child. You can even change the gender if, for some purpose, you fancy that. The app works similar to other AI implementations we’ve seen in the past. The process includes uploading a photo (selfies, ideally) to FaceApp’s servers that do take a considerable amount of time, and then, you can tinker with various filters which themselves consume some additional seconds to provide results....

Perhaps, fragmentation can be adverted with a trick which most users may hate at the first sight, but accept it at a second look: paying for Android updates. Spending a few bucks to get that pricey but now almost useless smartphone out of Google’s sandbox may worth the trouble, because carriers and even the search engine giant itself refuses to develop such updates, as a marketing strategy. But let’s emphasize on that....

The new Mi Max 2 takes cues from the Mi6 in terms of the back panel and opts this time for rounded edges which Xiaomi says provides much more comfortable one-handed use. Of course, despite all those promises, you won’t be able to operate the Max 2 with a single arm considering the whopping 6.44-inch Full HD panel up front and off-screen capacitive buttons. Moreover, the battery has been bumped up to 5300mAh battery that the company claims can run for two days on a single charge....

Coming back to sound quality, the Echo has a 3” woofer and a 0....

The Micromax Dual 5, therefore, has its phone-y plate full when it comes to expectations and hopes. Not only is it the first flagship level device from Micromax since the Canvas 6 and 6 Pro were launched last year, it also represents the Indian brand’s foray into a segment which it has generally tended to steer clear of – the higher priced smartphone segment. Micromax has gone north of the Rs 20,000 price band (most notably with the first Canvas Knight) in the past, but it is best known for what many call its “value for money” (read “super affordable”) phones, especially around the USD 150 territory....
