Over the last 3 days, Rohan has been releasing one video-a-day and all of them were regarding the user interface of Adam, aptly named EDEN UI. Some bloggers had still raised fingers at Rohan for not showing the hardware part of the tablet and even wondered if the hardware was ready yet. This latest video should answer them.

More freebies == More fun!! Camtasia Studio 3 is a brilliant screen capturing and video editing tool which is worth $200+, but now you can get it for FREE!

However the app seems to be working for Android 5.0 and further as we couldn’t install it on a device running Android KitKat 4.4.4.

Also, the Soli radar chip is still unlikely to work in India. That apart, these are about as good as any flagship gets in most departments (Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processors, displays with high refresh rates), and sheer bosses in the camera ones (hey, these are Pixels, remember!).
