And while he has shared dimensions for the 11-inch model only, which suggests an overall dimension of 248 x 178.6 x 5.9mm, there is no detail for the 12.9-inch model.

Vu says the biggest highlight of these new televisions is the fact that they’re first ones to feature Android Nougat in India (which we aren’t really sure yet). And since all of them natively run Android without a custom skin on top unlike Xiaomi’s Mi TV lineup, you get all the Google-y novelties like the ability to download apps as well as games from the Play Store, OS-wide voice control, Google Assistant, Chromecast support, Netflix, and more....

Twitter user, WABetaInfo, who has a positive history in WhatsApp news, has shared a screenshot that shows the app will be updated with a new feature called “Taglines”. This will essentially be a rebrand of the old status with no additional alterations whatsoever. Like before, you will be able to add a permanent message under your profile using merely text or emoji. “Taglines” were first spotted on the beta version, 2....

Scale is important in the telecom industry, there’s no doubt about that. The larger the number of subscribers you have, easier it is to spread the costs of running the network. However, it’s also important to note that inorganic growth hardly ever helps in the long run especially in low margin markets such as India where customers are finicky and jump ship everytime they find a better offer elsewhere. Jio’s infatuation with having a large subscriber base is understandable....

Kindle Fire HD seems pretty good, why not buy it? Why Kindle Fire HD is a passable tablet We will not go over again comparing it with Google’s Nexus 7, and despite of some issues recently reported by frustrated users, the Kindle Fire HD (the 7 inch version, that is) just can’t compare with Nexus 7’s specs.

One of my favorite tech writers, Brian S Hall, had predicted (back in Nov 2012) that Apple will be forced to release a much bigger iPhone this year, owing to the pressure applied by ever-growing Galaxy series of Android smartphones by Samsung, which are getting bigger and better by the day. Apple has always resisted bigger screens for the iPhone, as they hamper “single handed operation”. Well, they had also dismissed smaller iPads, till they announced iPad mini late last year....

Those were the words of a retailer with whom I was discussing the totally wireless earphone (TWS) market in India earlier this year. According to him, the Indian TWS market was at two extremes – the budget segment (around Rs 3,000), where people wanted to experience the wireless trend at a very low price point, and the premium segment (around Rs 10,000), where people wanted either the AirPods or something close to them or were very sensitive to product and audio quality....

Sir, or rather Big Sur, you have such iOS feels! Now, right from the beginning, smartphones have always aspired to be computers. Whether it was Palm, BlackBerry, i-Mate, or Nokia, the ultimate goal of a smartphone was to literally put a computer in your hand or into your pocket. And right from the beginning, computer users scoffed at the idea. Phones, they insisted, were simply not good enough. They were underpowered, their displays were too small, their software was totally different, and were at best all right for messaging and mail, but computers were the REAL thing....

The growth in the Indian market comes as a breath of fresh air for Xiaomi, a company that has been struggling to keep pace with the intense competition in its domestic market. Ironically, Xiaomi’s Q2 in China had witnessed a drop of 38% whilst they registered a staggering 150% Y-o-Y growth when it comes to India sales. Xiaomi claims that the spike in growth is triggered by the expansion in the offline market and also the addition of new online partners for a better distribution chain....

Now, let’s go over different ways to fix YouTube lagging on Chrome and other details you should know about the issue....

In many ways, it is a clash of two cultures as much as two devices – on the one hand, you have the former leader of the Indian smartphone market, Nokia, which is making a comeback to the mobile phone world, and is relying on its (perceived) core virtues of solidly built devices that go on and on; and on the other you have Xiaomi, the new number one in the Indian smartphone arena, which has consistently grabbed market share by offering well-specced devices at surprisingly affordable prices....

And both come from relatively young brands, one has been in India for less than two years, another that has just made its debut in the market. Indeed, at the time of writing, they are perhaps the best options for anyone looking for a super-powerful phone that does not blow a massive hole in their pockets. But should you go for the iQOO 3 or the Realme X50 Pro? Let’s find out, shall we?...

Well, the iPhone 12 is the new normal. Blast from past: Compact, simple, solid…and so so elegant For, the iPhone 12 is very different from its predecessors. Yes, it remains more affordable than the Pro series, and yes, it shares the same powerful A14 Bionic chip, but that apart, there have been changes. The most obvious of these is in terms of design – after the slightly tall iPhone 11 and XR, the iPhone 12 is surprisingly compact....
