The way we control these devices still seems to be the missing link, while most of the smart products are relying on their own bridges to control the devices it is becoming increasingly necessary to create a Hub for controlling all the devices centrally. It would not be something appalling and convenient if every IoT manufacturer comes with their own app. ADRC ADRC (Auto Discovery Remote Control) is a new platform from Xped that will allow smartphone users to control most of the electronic devices in their everyday environment with a simple tap....

Apple, Samsung, and OnePlus served as the key pillars of the exponential growth. Incidentally, these three brands contributed to nearly 94% of the overall market share. Apple had a great run in the last quarter of the year, thanks to the high sales of its new iPhone X. The near bezel-less smartphone was, in fact, the bestselling premium smartphone of Q4 2017, with a 21% market share.

Canalys Senior Analyst Jason Low feels that this justifies Apple’s decision to expand internationally with operators. Since the launch of the Apple Watch Series 3, Apple has forged partnerships with operators in Australia, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, India and South Korea. “Operators in these markets are willing to resell connected devices other than smartphones that can help them generate extra revenue from data services. India is a surprising addition to the list of countries....

Asus claims that the new device can go for 914 hours of standby time and up to 38 hours of talk time. Sadly, the battery is non-removable, meaning you cannot carry replacements for long trips. As far as other features are concerned, the Zenfone Max sports a 5.5-inch HD (720×1280 pixels) IPS display with ASUS’s TruVivid technology and runs ZenUI 2.0 based on Android 5.0 Lollipop. Under the hood, there’s a quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor clocked at 1GHz along with 2GB of RAM....

For any business – big or small – it has become a daily routine task to file numerous paper documents and archive them in gigantic file cabinets, which at times take more space than the office itself.

Above that, there is a greater risk of paper documents getting damaged or lost through fire, theft or other disasters....

This is what gave birth to Mini PCs… but what are they actually? While they do almost the same job as any PC out there, they are noticeably smaller in size, and the best part is you can build one of your own, and make it high end if you have a good idea about on starting with the basic model. However, stay warned that MINI PC doesn’t mean that it comes cheap....

(Alcatel) Idol 4 worship? BlackBerry no longer makes its own smartphones. That task has been handed out to Chinese company TCL, the company which also makes Alcatel devices. So it is hardly surprising that the DTEK 50 comes infused with design touches that are more Alcatel than BlackBerry – or the Alcatel Idol 4 to be exact. In fact, apart from the fact that it is slightly thicker (7.4 mm to 7....

The presence of a physical keyboard also means the KEY2 misses out on the biggest 2018 trend which is 18:9 screens. On the KEY2, you’ll find a 4.5-inch 3:2 display with a resolution of 1620 x 1080 pixels and Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection.

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....

This is how Cloak‘s selling line sounds like – “Avoid exes, co-workers, that guy who likes to stop and chat – anyone you’d rather not run into”. To put it in other words, it uses social check-ins and other geo-location information to help you avoid people you would prefer not bump into. Cloak ‘scrapes’ Instagram and Foursquare for locations, but more social networks will be added with a future release....

The price for OnePlus 7 starts at Rs 32,999, whereas, for the Pro model, starts at Rs 48,999. With that difference in price, it is pretty evident that both these devices are designed to cater to people with different requirements, and for the most part, they seem to do a pretty decent job with that pricing. With almost similar pricing for the OnePlus 6T and OnePlus 7, it would be confusing for a lot of people to decide between both the devices and for some, who already own a OnePlus 6T, whether the upgrade is worth....

Well, mainly for reasons of interface. Analog Camera comes from Realmac Software, the folks who gave us the incredibly elegant to-do list app, Clear. And as in the case of Clear, Analog Camera wins our hearts as much for what it does as for the way in which it does it. It is a small enough download – 5.3 MB and as we said, comes with a price that is as close to a Dollar as can be....

By requiring US Internet service providers, advertising networks, Internet payment gateway providers, and search engines to blacklist copyright violators, the pending Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) seeks to bring The Pirate Bay and other similar foreign sites into their knees. Met by strong opposition from liberty advocates and internet giants like Google, Facebook, and Youtube, SOPA will authorize the Department of Justice to seek a court order and require ISPs and search engines to blacklist infringing websites or web pages....

The best part is that one can also toggle other controls, for instance by speaking “next line” the cursor will shift to the next line, and the same holds good for punctuation as well.

The Dictate was initially built during the Microsoft Hackathon which had seen more than 1,500 Microsoft employees participating in it....
