Ads sound pure evil, right? Something the Devil himself may have created to not only invade our privacy but also to burn a hole in our already shallow pockets. All right, so that is a bit of an exaggeration but you get the gist. So what if we tell you that it is because of these ads that we are able to use one of the most popular and efficient emailing systems ever developed....
Now, Xiaomi is trying to move up the price ladder with the help of its sister brand Redmi with the launch of Redmi K20 and the K20 Pro. But while the K20 Pro is taking the flagships (and claiming to be the new Flagship Killer), head-on, the K20 is still trying to shake off the budget segment devices trying to take it down with their price anchors tied around its ankle....
Call me Killer Note Mini In the looks department, the K8 Plus is pretty much like a shrunk version of the K8 Note. We received both units in Venom Black color, and if it were not for the size, it would have been really difficult to guess which is which. And just like the K8 Note, we think the design of the K8 Plus is more on the safer side than the adventurous one....
First things first – the Realme 5 Pro is definitely one of the most attractive looking devices in its price segment. We can have the glass vs plastic back debate forever, with each having its own virtues and vices but there is simply no doubting that the diamond-like etched back of the Realme 5 Pro will turn heads. The design might be edgy but the back itself is smooth, and you see colors change and reflect off it as you tilt the device in the light, with even the gold-bordered fingerprint sensor on the back looking catchy....
The A30, like most of Samsung’s newer phones (apart from the flagship S10+) comes with an Infinity-U Display. Terminology aside, it is a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with a drop notch and a full HD+ resolution – and of course, this being a Samsung, the display is brilliant at first glance. The drop notch also means slimmer bezels on three side, although the phone does have a rather prominent chin. If the front is impressive, the back is even more so because even though Samsung has not tried for a gradient finish, opting instead for a more conventional glossy touch, the A30’s back does look very premium with the camera unit tucked away in the top left corner, and can twist light this way and that for a very eye-catching effect....
That M series formula with some (F)lair For, make no mistake about it, the F41 does not deviate too far from the tenets of the M series. Which is not really a bad thing, when you consider how good (and successful) the phones in that series have been. It does look a little more flashy, though. Not in a loud manner. Whereas the M series have stuck to slightly sober and understated colors, the F41 comes with a design that will attract a bit of attention....
In a world full of phones with fingerprint scanners, the Redmi 5A is denied of it, just like its predecessor. And this is understandable as Xiaomi is cutting the costs and keeping things minimum, and this what you would instantly notice. Speaking of instantly noticing, you would also see the 5A is hard to tell apart from the 4A. It’s the same 5-inch laminated HD display that packs around 296 pixels per inch....

“I like it on the couch.” “I like it on the kitchen table.” “I like it on the floor” These are just some of the many weird status updates from female Facebook users we are seeing in the last couple of days. If you are wondering the reason behind these provocative status updates, it is because October is the “Breast Cancer Awareness month” and it’s all in support of the awareness campaign....

To begin with, the Acer Swift 7 features a 13.3-inch Full HD IPS panel, Intel’s 7th Generation Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of SSD and the Intel Kaby Lake chip, all operating under a completely fanless system. For design, Acer has opted for an elegant-looking aluminium unibody chassis with black and dark gold accents inside and out. There are two USB 3.1 ports, a headphone jack, and Acer promises a 9-hour of battery life which does sound quite too good to be true, although, we won’t conclude our opinions just yet....

Android fanboys geeks will rejoice! Symbian fans (I know you aren’t one) will go into hiding and Apple fanboys will continue to pretend it’s nothing worthy to brag about. But why? According to Reuters, Google’s Android has just dethroned Nokia’s Symbian as the most popular smartphone platform in the last quarter of 2010! Reuters are quoting the research firm, Canalys, for the report, but it should not come as a surprise that Android has overtaken Symbian, which has been going down consistently over the past 3 years or so....

As of now, the Apple Watch does offer a built-in heart rate reader, but despite offering high accuracy, the heart rate reader is still not clinical grade and used by doctors. Most of the times Doctors prescribe an EKG (electrocardiogram test) to diagnose issues with heart. At the outset, the AliveCor seems like a perfect accessory for folks suffering from heart disorders or even ones who like to keep a closer watch on their health....
Angry Birds 2 is the first free major game in the series and it’s out for iOS and Android And just like any other free game in 2015, it’s laden with in-app purchases and ads. To me, though, the striking difference is just how heavy the game is. Angry Birds was a casual game with really simple and cartoonish graphics. Even on my old iPod Touch 3rd gen, I could start playing in a couple of seconds....
