Here’s an in-depth detailed comparison between the iPhone XS and the iPhone X. iPhone XS vs iPhone X: Design At first glance, both the iPhone X and the iPhone XS look identical. Coming at a 5.8-inch display, the iPhone XS sports an all-glass design with stainless steel running around the corners similar to the iPhone X with a resolution of 2436 x 1125 (458ppi). The display on the iPhone XS is the same Super Retina (AMOLED) display from Samsung with a notch at the top....

To understand the ‘why’ of this argument, we will have to revisit the MacBook Air. The principal reason behind the lineup’s soaring popularity was simple. It absolutely nailed the kind of notebook customers at that time demanded. A thin and light machine that didn’t look like it’s designed to do “math” and was powerful as well as long-lasting enough to handle everyday tasks. Apple, however, grew way too comfortable with that equation and refused to let it go....

The JBL Endurance Run is a pair of in-ear style headphones which focuses on providing a tight grip when worn so as to prevent slipping out of your ears while performing intensive activities like running or jogging or exercising in the gym. They’re also sweatproof so having them on while you’re busy burning calories shouldn’t cause any issues. The earplugs themselves are soft to touch and feel like they’re made of rubber or silicone and feel much more premium than a regular plastic construction....

The Jio’s feature phone will come equipped with a 2.4-inch display, and Reliance Retail has apparently partnered with both Qualcomm and Spreadtrum for its chipsets. Furthermore, Reliance is expected to launch two handsets both of which will be paired with the 512MB RAM and on the storage front, it will offer 4GB of internal memory along with a slot for microSD card. The imaging arrangements on the feature phone will be bare basics and include a 2-Megapixel sensor on both the sides....

As per the study, KaiOS accounts for 15% of the total pie, while iOS has plunged below the 10% mark at 9.6%. Android still holds an unparalleled lead by powering nearly 71.6% of the total number of mobile devices in the country. However, it is worth noting that the Google-owned operating system lost 11.4% of the share in the past year. On the other hand, iOS’ share fell by 1....

ZUK Edge apparently, appears to share the same design philosophy wherein the minimal bezels can be seen in the front of the smartphone. In fact, the Lenovo owned brand has already confirmed the existence of the ZUK Edge and has announced that it will lock heads with the Xiaomi Mi Mix. This makes us believe that the smartphone has been in the making for quite some time now, and ZUK was aware of Xiaomi developing a similar device....

The convenience of simply installing an app eventually ate up a major chunk of tracking devices’ business. However, there’s still a market for these dedicated utilities primarily for a little more advanced and specific purposes like keeping track of a fleet of taxis, a pet, or even a child who is not old enough to carry a phone around. We’ve been testing one of such tracking devices available in the market — the LT Personal Mega by an India-based company called Letstrack....

The set of cameras are closely arranged in a matrix layout on the top left corner and their core purpose of existence is to essentially let you click the same scene from multiple perspectives with a click of a button. There are several ways LG employs this array of information. For starters, you can, of course, select a particular sensor and click a single shot from it. Or you can press a button and produce sixteen images, all taken from a different angle....

Yes, LG wants to drive away the mosquitoes in your house with their televisions which were earlier meant to be used only for entertainment purposes. The company has used the Sound Wave technology to make the mosquitoes fly away without any harmful radiation. Thankfully, the technology doesn’t use any chemicals making it much safer than the usual mosquito repellents. This is what Mr Howard Lee, Director Home Entertainment had to say about the breakthrough innovation “LG is constantly introducing products based on Indian insights, making them more meaningful for the Indian consumers....

From Tevi to PurePlay Z3 The reasons for the re-christening as per the announcement that came to us was: There is a bit of us going “whatever” at that marketing-speak, to be honest, but then we are sure that the decision to have a new name came from more brand-aware minds than ours. The name-changed has sparked some talk in the market of a takeover but we would recommend taking that with more than a pinch of salt....

Ah, the third dimension! It’s been conquered in cinema theaters and on television screens, and encroached the smartphone arena a while ago. And while the technology has its naysayers, it’s here to stay, at least on the big screen. On phones however, it’s a different set of rules that come into play in deciding how well it’s received (not to mention totally different technologies and different measures of success). As far as the user is concerned, the idea is all about making the media and gaming experience more immersive of course, apart from its perceived coolness and the flaunt value....

Apart from the battery, though, there’s not much the C Plus brings to the table. It comes with a micro-textured plastic body, off-screen capacitive buttons and up front, features a 5-inch HD display. Underneath, the phone is powered by a rather mediocre, MediaTek quad-core processor clocked at 1.3Ghz along with 2GB of RAM, 16 gigs of inbuilt storage which is expandable up to 32GB via a MicroSD slot, Mali-T720MP2 GPU and of course, the highlight, a removable 4000mAh battery....

“This one.” “But the hardware is far more superior on that one.” “Then buy that!” “But I also need it to stand out in the crowd” “Can you please kill me?” That’s the sort of conundrum I face on a regular basis now. The specifications race has led to a wide selection of competent smartphones, however, at the same time, it has also led to a demise of phones that try to outsmart others with their unique characteristics....

Compact Light and Dark Themes The Firefox 53 which was in beta till now comes with a number of cosmetic changes too. It now has an option for two new preset themes – Compact Light and Compact Dark. These themes completely change the look and feel of the browser. On enabling this theme, the tabs become squarish, similar to the one seen in the Microsoft Edge.

Rdio has confirmed in the blog post that it will be shutting the shops in coming weeks, till which the services will be uninterrupted. This is not the first time the Digital Music economy had to face the wrath of sketchy economics along with the issue of loyalties to the music labels. The chances are that someone other than Pandora might just come and buy the Rdio. The company said in a statement “While we are filing for bankruptcy, because the planned sale to Pandora is contingent on such a filing, by law Rdio is required to entertain competitive offers during the bankruptcy process that is being managed for us by Moelis & Company....

As per the product listing page which has went live on the Indian Play store, the 16GB version of Nexus 5 will cost Rs.28,999, while the 32GB will cost Rs.32,999. These prices are little more than what we had seen with Nexus 4 earlier this year. But that’s understandable as rupee has greatly lost value against USD in recent months. Both the 16GB and 32GB models will come in two colors: Black and White....

1. More than game for videogames! Like most high school kids, Jai Mani was also into videogames. But make no mistake, he was not just into videogames, he played in a team. It might not have been a professional gig but he was part of a league and as per him, they were the best team in America back then. Pretty cool, eh? 2. Upgraded game, destroyed computer, got first tech job!...

Yes, we are talking about the Silk White “Limited edition” of the OnePlus 6 which went on sale today in India and across the world. Despite being a Limited Edition variant, the packaging is pretty much like the other regular OnePlus 6 variants. The company has stuffed in a transparent silicone case for those who are wary of the slippery glass back. Personally speaking, this is by far the best of the four variants of OnePlus 6....
