A recent article on CNN talks about the possibility of some radical, positive changes being done to this issue. PayPal’s system is designed to fight fraudsters and to provide a very secure and safe platform to buy and sell things online.

Switching to a Switchblade design It also is perhaps one of the most striking 5G phones in the mid-segment.

The front is business as usual – a tall 6.5-inch LCD display with a punch-hole notch in the center – but flip the phone around, and you are likely to either smile or frown, depending on your sense of aesthetics....

We reckon the Nexus 5X would understand the sentiment that underlies those famous lines from Rudyard Kipling. Seldom has opinion about a phone swung so radically in a matter of weeks. Launched as the spiritual successor of the very successful Nexus 5, it was greeted at its launch with shock and disbelief at its price – Rs 31,900 – which many (us included, check our first impressions) considered a tad on the high side for a device that was not exactly a spec barnstormer....

However, OnePlus over the past year, in particular, seems to have moved from this position. The new OnePlus devices seem to have gone from being flagship killers to just being more like the flagships they were killing a few years ago....
