Note: Like always, I experienced the Amazfit Verge for over two weeks in parallel with Fitbit Ionic. The reason being it gives me a better understanding and a reference based on my old and current stats. AmazFit Verge Review I have reviewed a couple of smartwatches and fitness trackers including Amazfit’s Stratos, Cor, and Lenovo’s HX03F Spectra. The experience has given me a fair idea on the default settings of smartwatches....

Since it’s not really feasible to manually keep track of every person an individual may have come in contact with, what better way to do it than using technology. To make this happen, two of the biggest names in technology who also happen to be two of the biggest rivals have joined hands to work on a platform to make contact tracing more feasible and effective. That’s right, we’re talking about Apple and Google working together towards making the planet a safer place in these tough times....

The new Credit Card is built into the Wallet app, to provide users with convenience and easy access to their cards and other related information. For this service, Apple has partnered with one of the biggest banks, Goldman Sachs and its old-partner since Apple Pay, Mastercard, to serve a huge number of users. To be able to use the Credit Card, all that a user needs to do is sign up for the service on their iPhone, followed by which, they would get a new card, that can be used worldwide across all the devices, right away....

The primary rationale behind the disbandment seems to be Apple’s new strategy which includes shifting focus on products that generate the majority of its revenue. However, the move isn’t entirely a sudden decision, Apple has been gradually migrating the team over to various other product sections including Apple TV, as stated by a company spokesperson. Until now, Apple was retailing three routers namely the AirPort Express for $99, AirPort Extreme at $199, and AirPort Time capsule that also doubles as a hard drive for $299, all of which haven’t been upgraded since 2013....

First off, let’s get one thing clear – the Apple Pencil works very fluently with Pages. There are no menus to mess around with. Just tap anywhere on a document and you will find your Apple Pencil working just fine with it. Right now, the options are limited to smart annotations and drawings and both work very well indeed. The drawing tools are decent enough for someone to either sketch in a document, and the interface is simple, in best Apple tradition....

The new AirPower mat can be used to charge the iPhone 8, iPhone 8s, Watch Series 3 and the iPhone X. It supports Qi wireless charging which is the same protocol that Samsung has been using for its devices. That being said the AirPower mat is not yet available and Apple is still working on the same. The best part, however, is that the mat offers fast charging and can charge all the three devices simultaneously....

First up, the two new tablets. A 12-inch tablet isn’t new news. In last one year, we’ve heard a lot of details about this baffling device and even seen plenty of purported images of it. The new information, however, is that the company plans to introduce two big iPads, which it likes to refer to as “J98″ and “J99” (codenames) for now. Also being referred to as the “iPad Pro,” the new tablets are said to be a larger version of the iPad Air 2....

As for the rest of the specifications, the ROG Phone comes with Qualcomm’s top-of-the-line chip, the Snapdragon 845, speed-binned to achieve clock speeds of up to 2.96 GHz. In addition, the phone has 8GB of RAM, up to 512GB of onboard storage, and a 4000mAh battery which does support quick charging. On the front, the ROG Phone carries a 6-inch OLED screen with a resolution of 1080p and a 90Hz refresh rate....

The laptop is mainly meant for all the space geeks and is undeniably attractive. It’s made for people like me who are tired of staring at the same black computers that always look the same, plain and boring. Under the hood, it has a lot to offer with the 12th generation Intel Core i9 chipset, 32 GB RAM, and much more. Moreover, the laptop continues Asus’ OLED tradition with a 2800*1800 OLED display at 90 Hz, a feast for the eyes....

Indeed, its 5.2-inch full HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor with 3 GB RAM, 32 GB storage and the usual array of connectivity options (4G, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS), 16.0-megapixel camera and 2600 mAh battery seem to be a bit of a millstone around its neck, rather than an asset. For at its price point, the ZenFone 3 faces formidable competition in terms of sheer spec sheet muscle – the Xiaomi Mi5 offers a flagship level Snapdragon 820 chip for only a little bit more and even the better specced 5....

I know it has happened to me many times, and it’s so frustrating. Luckily, our smartphones can give us a hand with making and remembering shopping lists. And, as you’ve probably guessed by now, the help comes in the form of apps, or to be more specific, shopping list apps (or grocery list apps). These little helpers will allow you to do your grocery shopping with ease and never forget anything again....

Well, I think that is how Lord Tennyson (or so our Editorial Mentor tells us) would have described the budget smartphone market in India right now. For, there is not much that differentiates phones in this segment from each other in terms of design. It was not always this way. A few years ago, introducing a new smartphone in this segment was about introducing a technological breakthrough, which was affordable....

That someone does not always have to be a person, but it can also be something. A special thing like an online tool, a mobile app or software that can make everything a lot easier for you! There are a few of them out there, and we took the time to analyze them and make the summary of what we discovered. Mint One of the most well-known tools for managing all financial activities is Mint – a tool that allows you to keep track of bank accounts, as well as investments and loans, bills that you have to pay, etc....

The BlackBerry Priv was put for pre registration last week, and seems that it has finally gotten itself a price tag. The Blackberry Priv seems to be up for pre order at a price of GBP 579.99(~$900), which seems to be a ransom to pay, but again it might still do well with consumers needing both a physical keyboard and a touch screen combo. The BlackBerry Priv will be running the near stock Android 5....

We are talking of course, of Apple. Cometh the product presentation and cometh almost inevitably the slides proving that the product being showcased is better than a similar one from Cupertino – be it in RAM, camera quality, thinness, screen size, pixel density and the Lord alone knows what else. We had written last year that there now seemed to be an element of respect in the Android-iPhone rivalry. However, that seems to have been an overly optimistic assumption – for most brands, the icon in the bulls-eye remains an Apple shaped one....

If you’re on Mac, macOS gives you a built-in screen capturing tool to take screenshots and record the screen conveniently. However, even though this native tool works well, it isn’t very versatile due to the lack of multiple capturing modes and a missing built-in editor for editing the captured screengrabs. As a result, you must rely on third-party screen capturing apps for these operations. Capto is one such app for Mac....

Today we’re talking about Fareness, a fairly new service which pretty much comes with the same concept. Fareness allows you to search for any destination and see a scrollable calendar of fares for 200 departure dates, along with a corresponding map of similar destinations, and suggested trip tiles across themes in the same time. Here are some more details regarding the functionality of the service from Scott Wainner, the founder and CEO at Fareness: “You’re also able to hone in on your desired trip month and trip length....
