Samsung Galaxy S Light Luxury now Official

The Galaxy S Light Luxury was just announced in China packing very modest specs, the device is pretty much a "lite" variant of the Galaxy S8. The 5.8' screen from the S8 makes a return keeping the same dimensions as its bigger brother. The Light S features the same Super AMOLED panel with 1,080 x 2,220 px resolution (18.5:9). The phone has a single camera on the back - 16 MP sensor and an f/1.7 aperture. It can record 4K video at 30 fps, but OIS is absent (surprisingly). The selfie camera has an 8 MP sensor with an f/1.7 aperture. The Snapdragon 660 chipset inside the Galaxy S Light Luxury should offer similar CPU performance to the Galaxy S8's 835. It does have 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. Given the Galaxy S Light Luxury's size, it shouldn’t be a surprise that there’s a 3,000 mAh battery – the same capacity as the Galaxy S8. There’s support for fast wireless and wired charging, the latter of which goes over the USB-C port....

The new OPPO R11s Release Date and Review.


The news of the Chinese Tech firm, OPPO, releasing its new R11s has already began spreading round the internet. While we are still waiting for the phone, it can be seen the design and properties of the phone will not be far-fetched from leaked renders of the phone or specifications as predicted by some outlet.

Well, remember when your hands could block the sound output when you are playing game (especially when you need to hear your victory chant, CoC fans can relate?), oh well, they apparently have a solution for that now. With the development of “crescent arcs” the device’s hardware would allow you to play or watch videos. Although this was done by modifying the headphone and microUSB port.


ColorOS 3.2 seems to bring a new and special feature called Split Screen mode(which I am guessing will be similar to the Axon M’s split screen mode also) . it also comes with facial unlock which is integrated using an AI to recognise its user. It can do so in as quick as 0.08 seconds.
Its main cameras are kinda a roll over from the R11 which includes a dual camera system, combining a 16MP and a 20MP camera both with f/1.7 apertures. Also the 20MP camera is known as its “selfie camera” integrated with the AI for some advanced beautification settings.(clears throat). It uses Gorilla Glass 5 and also has a 6.01 inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolutions at 2160 x 1080 pixels.
Well if you are in china, the phone should be coming your way on the November 10 with 3 color options i.e. red, black and champagne. Also the black and champagne will cost about CNY 2,999
while the red will go for CNY 3199.

If ever you need a latest and affordable smartphone of the Q4 for this year, I will ask you give the phone a try. Also don’t forget to drop your comments for what you think about the device.

iOS Apps Can Spy on You Through Your iPhone's Camera

Another privacy loophole in the apple iOS was discovered when top iOS researcher and founder of Fastlane Tools, Felix Krause, noticed the problem in the mobile firmware. He said that apple was leaving its camera and recording access so loosely such that third party apps can easily spy on users without any warning. Krause explained that “iOS users often grant camera access to an app soon after they download it (e.g. to add an avatar or to send a photo) and these apps, like a messaging app or any news feed based app, can easily track the users face, take pictures, or live stream the front or back camera without the user’s content.” He further explained that a worse-case scenario will be an app that is installed and asks once for the camera access to either take an avatar or upload an image but then secretly upload pictures of the user on the internet. He also noticed that under the latest iOS version apps have been given to much freedom in the sense that it cou...

What to Expect of the Blackberry Motion - Review and Specs

For some time there have been rumors about BlackBerry’s new release - that goes by the name “BlackBerry Krypton” (pretty powerful name huh?) floating around , I haven't really known much about the upcoming product except its month of launch … Until now that is. Recently renowned leaker Mr. Evan Blass put a face (so to speak) to our thoughts, guesses and rumors on Twitter with the name BlackBerry “Motion”. His Twitter handle put out the photo accompanied with the text “Goodbye, Krypton. Hello, BlackBerry Motion”. Why that name? I can’t say for sure but it could be guessed that it probably has something to do with a specially featured function. Now down to her looks, as gotten from the photo of our dear leaker Mr. Blass. Much like its earlier released sibling –The BlackBerry DTEK50, her creators have forgone the physical keyboard (a signature feature design of BB’s for years) could this be the norm for BlackBerry’s succeeding devices? Might be, might not be. But personally the...

Having this as my first write up, I’ll say that you pardon my speech pattern and organization. I’ll probably get to used to it the more I write and also I hope to get a positive feedback from you guys at the end of the write up So basically here’s my own arrangement of the top animes that is to be seen in the first half of the year. I was thinking of arranging them irrationally and with no specific order but I decided to place the personaly according to the order that I feel is more interesting. So first off, I’m still in my anime grooming phase so I beckon on the anime otaku(s) to not judge me so hard. Alright, lets get to it. 1. Boruto I know I know, this kid of makes me come off as a Naruto fanatic, but really I just love a good anime and while Borut clearly seems to come from Naruto (obviously I mean he’s naruto’s son), there’s this added mystery to what boruto can offer us. I mean I hate to give spoilers but we have the dojutsu on his right eye whose abilities ha...
