Which Is Best : iPhone 8, iPhone X or Galaxy S8?

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div class="story-body" style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="story-body" style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Apple's iPhone and Google's Android operating system hit the marketplace one decade ago. Ten years later, there's still plenty of debate over which is better. I've lately been asked which of three new flagship phones is better: Apple's iPhone 8, its iPhone X, or Samsung's new Galaxy S8, which runs Google Android?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Smartphones have gone through some remarkable changes over the years. How do you determine which is best for you today?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">First, these are all excellent smartphones that have redefined leadership in the sector. They have improved over the last decade. However, there are real differences.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In fact, there are significant differences between the iPhone 8 and iPhone X. Until the iPhone X finally became available last week, iPhone 8 sales were very slow. Now that users can compare, I expect sales of both models to pick up steam.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Many users who waited for the iPhone X have found the new design harder to use and less satisfying. The camera is better, but many miss the familiar Home button. To some, the new iPhone looks and feels like a Samsung Galaxy phone, and they don't like that.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The iPhone 8 may be more appealing to those customers. As for the Home button, though, Apple has been messing with it for the last year or two -- the iPhone 7 and 8 have different Home buttons. What's available now is not really a button. Many users prefer the feel of the old time, real button. However, they have no way to get it on newer devices.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is an instance of Apple pushing users outside their comfort zone, which is something many dislike.</span></div>
<div class="story-advertisement" style="background-color: white; float: left; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-size: 16px; margin-right: 15px; margin-top: 5px;">
<div id="PLOQMAHBMIBZ">

<img alt="" class="ct-10027-a-nmg_sond_tnw_160-1" height="0" src="https://www.technewsworld.com/adsys/count/10027/?nm=a-nmg_sond_tnw_160-1&ENN_rnd=15135524489586&ign=0/ign.gif" style="left: 0px; position: absolute; top: 0px;" width="0" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-size: 16px;">
</div>
<h2 class="subhead" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; color: #363636; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-size: 18px; margin: 17px 0px;">
<u>iPhone X: Love It or Hate It</u></h2>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Even those who find themselves confused by the new iPhone X design will become used to it in time and possibly even come to like it. The real question is, why did Apple find it necessary to frustrate the user base and mess with its already-winning design? Change for change's sake is not always a winning philosophy among users.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Smartphones are far more advanced today, as they quickly have become the most important tool we carry around, both personally and professionally. In the recent past, when we left our home for the day we had to remember our wallet, keys and phone. Going forward, all we will have to remember is the smartphone. It will do everything. It will have our wallet, credit cards, personal information and pictures. It will open doors and start cars.</span></div>
<h2 class="subhead" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; color: #363636; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-size: 18px; margin: 17px 0px;">
<u>iPhone, Android User Loyalty</u></h2>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you prefer one smartphone over the other, chances are you will stick with the brand. It makes life a less complicated. It's about more than the smartphone you hold in your hand -- it's all the services and apps you use. Apps are made differently for iPhones or Android phones, each system has its own cloud services for backing up and storing data.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There also are significant differences in the way the devices work. The iPhone is easier to use and more secure; however, it is not as flexible. Phones running Google's Android OS are much more flexible, and many love that. However, along with flexibility, Android has more security problems.</span></div>
<h2 class="subhead" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; color: #363636; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-size: 18px; margin: 17px 0px;">
<u>Carrier Choices</u></h2>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Besides the phone itself, you also have to choose a carrier. The two with the most customers and biggest market share are AT&T Mobility and Verizon Wireless. T-Mobile and Sprint are smaller, but growing in the wireless-only space. Comcast Xfinity Mobile is new, and its customers seem to like it. Charter Cable TV wireless service is coming soon. Google Project Fi is available as well.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As a wireless analyst, I regularly get all sorts of smartphones to evaluate and compare. Smartphone makers and networks want me to try their devices and comment on them. This gives me the opportunity to play with lots of phones and operating systems and see how they compare, and how they have improved over time.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I like the iPhone 8, the iPhone X and the Galaxy S8 for different reasons. I still have not found one perfect phone. I would love a phone with the flexibility of Android and the security of the iPhone, but you can't get both.</span></div>
<h2 class="subhead" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; color: #363636; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica; font-size: 18px; margin: 17px 0px;">
Which Do You Prefer?</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We all have preferences. Some people love the simplicity and security of the iPhone iOS, while others like the freedom and flexibility of Android. Both iPhone and Android fill the bill for different types of users. However, both have changed in recent years.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Size is one thing that has changed a lot over the years. The original one-handed size was perfect. The original iPhone and Android models were smaller, but much easier to handle and operate with one hand. However, many prefer the larger screen. That makes it easier to watch video, but today's phones are heavier and larger, so they stick out of your shirt pocket and are impossible to use with just one hand.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Apple finally did the right thing: It reintroduced its smaller-sized device for those who want it. Users often find that switching between iPhone and Android is time consuming and messy, and it creates all sorts of headaches. My suggestion is to try them both, decide which you want, and then stick with it.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Of course, if you like them both and need more than one smartphone, you can always get both! I know many who have both. However, the vast majority only use one device. If you are like most, you have a choice to make. So, which is your favorite, and why? </span></div>

The internet was supposed to be open and permissionless, transcend borders and make the world a smaller place. Some of that has been achieved, but there is also a creeping feeling that ISPs (Internet Service Providers), nation states, and web services are increasingly locking down their networks, imposing censorship and discriminating based on computer, browser, and IP address.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Many technologies aim to free information from censorship and geo-restrictions. Most restrictions are only placed on the internet artificially and superficially, and can easily be circumvented. </div>

Even poorly configured networks are something that often have to be bypassed using tools otherwise created to break censorship—as anybody knows who’s had trouble connecting to their server via SSH with airport Wi-Fi.</div>

The most popular way to circumvent censorship is with a VPN (Virtual Private Network).</div>

While most Linux VPNs only come with the insufficient PPTP preinstalled, the gold standard of VPN protocols, the open source <a class="hawk-link-parsed" href="https://openvpn.net/" style="border: 0px; color: #0099cc; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">OpenVPN</a>, is readily available for all Linux distributions as an additional package.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
OpenVPN mimics regular encrypted internet traffic, such as TLS (The predecessor of SSL), making it hard to distinguish from normal web traffic. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
It is highly customisable and can fluidly adapt to new efforts to block it. However, dealing with the OpenVPN configuration files is not always trivial and user-friendly. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Providers routinely have to rotate servers, IP addresses, and even domain names to counter blockades.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
The default command line on Linux, which you can install with<span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 600; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">sudo apt install</span>. However, OpenVPN isn’t very convenient when using multiple servers and configurations.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
You will have to download a configuration file for each server or connection variation that you intend to use, which can add up to thousands or even millions of possible configurations.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Additionally, these server settings can change, and new servers are regularly added. Old servers can occasionally be dropped, or their IP address or URL will change, requiring a user to stay up to date by perpetually downloading new configuration files. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Despite the inconvenient set up, OpenVPN remains an excellent protocol. ExpressVPN uses it by default across all its applications and has built a neat solution to make using a VPN on Linux simple.</div>
<h3 style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 30px; margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Linux CLI</h3>

The ExpressVPN Linux CLI (command line interface) does away with the hassle by requesting a list of available servers and configurations from the server directly, invisible to the end user. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
All the user needs to do is select their preferred country, city, or even individual server. The application automatically chooses the fastest server relative to the current location of the user.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
The application is built on the OpenVPN protocol and supports both TCP and UDP data communications. Using simple commands, you can connect to the ExpressVPN network, list all servers, and show your current connection status and diagnostics. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
You can also define your preferred protocol and chose whether you would like to auto-connect through the preferences command.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
The CLI version of ExpressVPN is available for a broad range of Linux distributions (distros), such as <a class="hawk-link-parsed" href="https://www.debian.org/" style="border: 0px; color: #0099cc; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Debian</a>, <a class="hawk-link-parsed" href="https://www.ubuntu.com/" style="border: 0px; color: #0099cc; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Ubuntu</a>, <a class="hawk-link-parsed" href="https://www.centos.org/" style="border: 0px; color: #0099cc; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">CentOS</a>, and <a class="hawk-link-parsed" href="https://getfedora.org/" style="border: 0px; color: #0099cc; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Fedora</a>. </div>

It very likely also works with distros built from a fork of these platforms and results in a coherent and smooth user experience requiring zero tweaking.</div>

The Linux ecosystem is diverse and vibrant, with people using a large variety of servers and home computers for many reasons, which is why ExpressVPN works across this ecosystem and brings big benefits for many use cases, from watching movies to defending against rogue ISPs. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Few VPN providers support Linux using OpenVPN certificates like ExpressVPN does, and almost nobody has dedicated applications for a small but strong and savvy customer segment.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
ExpressVPN is a fast and reliable VPN service that consistently breaks internet censorship and provides reliable protection from snooping and injection, even in adversarial conditions. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
RSA Certificates are signed with a 4,096-bit long key and identified with an SHA-512 hash, making sure that even a strong adversary is not able to intercept your connection in a Man-in-the-middle Attack or inject any malicious data.</div>
<h3 style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 30px; margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Free and open</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
VPNs are the ultimate net neutrality tools and can be used to fight against surveillance, censorship, and geoblocking. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
While you may feel that you have limited choice in your ISPs, perhaps due to market manipulation, geography or politics, VPN providers compete among hundreds of global providers for reliable service and unrestricted access, which comes with significant benefits to the end user.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
VPN providers typically do not own an internet infrastructure, such as fibre cables. They only own servers, which are scattered around the world’s jurisdictions. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Because of the virtual nature of VPNs (unlike physical ISPs), they can choose to be based in jurisdictions that have no laws requiring them to turn over user data to the state or ISPs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
They are also able to minimise their legal footprint to evade copyright notices and lawsuits and don’t have to pass them on to their users to stay in business.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Keep in mind that It is technically possible for a VPN provider to keep logs, although in the case of ExpressVPN it doesn’t, but it’s important to look into the Terms of Service contract, marketing materials, and media coverage to see if the VPN is keeping records.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
It’s fair to say that were a VPN provider to keep customer files and hand them over to courts of law enforcement, it would become known relatively quickly and would destroy the reputation of the vendor.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
A VPN provider doesn’t need to know who its customers are. Usually, an email address for password recovery and occasional communication is enough, but technically not required. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Payments can be settled anonymously with Bitcoin, and there’s no need to hand over compromising material. While an ISP has to know exactly where you live, a VPN doesn’t actually care.</div>
<h3 style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 30px; margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Strong anonymity</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Additionally, the encryption technique behind Virtual Private Networks, especially if applied as thoroughly and diligently as ExpressVPN does, allows a user to tunnel through the physical infrastructure of their local provider. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
Using the VPN deprives the ISP the ability to log the outgoing and incoming connections of their client.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
ISPs already violate international net neutrality agreements by giving preference to some services, and throttling others. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
A VPN allows you access to an internet unfettered by harmful collusion and cartelisation, and will actually increase your internet speed in cases of intentional ISP throttling. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
When surfing the internet from your home or mobile phone, your IP address is exposed to every website you see, and every service you connect to makes it relatively easy to de-anonymize you.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
While strong anonymity online requires more than just a VPN, protecting your IP addresses is a well-needed step, whether you need against harassment in chat forums or DDoS attacks on your gaming device.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
VPNs are incredibly useful against surveillance and censorship and offer simple privacy protection. ExpressVPN shines with their well-applied encryption protocols, such as OpenVPN, and has a fast and reliable network of over 1,000 servers in 136 countries. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">
ExpressVPN sticks out with an easy to use command Line Interface that is available for most Linux distros</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; width: 942px;">

Update: Light on weight and heavy on graphics, the Gigabyte Aero 14 may not be the most potent in terms of battery life. But, at a competitive price point that gives Razer and Alienware a run for their money, it's well worth the negligible compromise. Read on to number 4 to find out more!<br />

You want a powerful gaming computer, right? Sure, a rigorous machine that can handle any game at max settings, outperforming the latest consoles would be cheaper to build. But that’s a daunting, and frankly unnecessary, task for anyone more interested in playing games than tinkering with hardware.<br />
<br />
A gaming laptop is exactly what you want when you want it. You don’t have to replace parts individually when one is acting up; in fact, you don’t even have to buy a monitor, a mouse or a keyboard. Your entire gaming setup is immediately is joined into a single device, free to travel wherever you do.<br />
<br />
<br />
For a decent gaming notebook, you’re looking at an expenditure around $1,000 (around £800, AU$1,400) minimum. To experience the best PC games at the highest resolutions and frame rates, you can expect to fork over significantly more. That’s assuming, though, that the games are optimized for the hardware of your choosing.<br />
<br />
Fortunate, the barrier of entry for high-end gaming is getting lower. The system requirements for VR have dropped significantly since the launch of the Rift while VR-ready graphics cards like the GTX 1060 cost but a fraction of their last-gen equivalents.<br />
<br />
In this article, we’ve delivered our impressions on the 10 best gaming laptops spanning various brands and budgets. These are the best gaming laptops you can buy in 2017. Not one is perfect, but each entry on this tidily upheld list is high-specced and ready to conquer the hell out of your crowded Steam library.<br />

CPU: Intel Core i7 | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 - 1070 | RAM: 16GB DDR4 | Screen: 15.6-inch full HD 1,920 x 1,080 IPS | Storage: 128GB - 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD<br />

<li>Rocks Full HD gaming</li>
<li>Deliciously vibrant screen</li>
<li>Middling battery life</li>
</ul>
<br />
The Asus Strix GL502 may not boast the most innovative design, swapping out the usual black and red color scheme for one that makes it feel like Halloween year-round. But, it's undoubtedly one of the best when it comes to gaming in 1080p. In fact, we were able to crank the settings all the way up in Overwatch without taking a hit below 60fps. The battery life is janky, sure, but the screen, performance and onboard sound system more than make up for it.<br />

Alienware 13 R3</div>
<br />
<br />
2. Alienware 13 R3<br />
<br />
Gawk at the first-ever OLED gaming laptop<br />
<br />
CPU: Intel Core i5 – i7 | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 | RAM: 8GB – 16GB DDR4 | Screen: 13.3-inch HD 1,366 x 768 TN – QHD 2,560 x 1440 OLED touchscreen | Storage: 180GB – 512GB SSD<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Gorgeous OLED screen</li>
<li>Improved hinge-forward design</li>
<li>Unexpectedly dense</li>
<li>Short battery life</li>
</ul>
<br />
Unlike most laptops its size, the Alienware 13 R3 bears a hinge-forward design. By moving the heatsinks usually located beneath the keyboard to a distinct bulge that projects outward behind the screen, it allows for a thinner, 0.81-inch (0.22cm) chassis. Unfortunately, this means you won’t find many 13-inch laptop bags that will actually suit the Alienware 13 R3; rather you’ll likely have to opt for a 15-inch carrier. The real draw, however, isn’t the Alienware 13 R3’s protruding appendage or even its impressive quad-core, H-class CPU. While you may be tempted by the inclusion of a full-size Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060, it’s the OLED touch display that caught our attention. The flavorful color gamut puts practically every other laptop on the market to shame.<br />

HP Omen 17</div>
<br />
 A premium desktop replacement sans the premium cost<br />
<br />
CPU: 6th gen Intel Core i7 | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 (8GB GDDR5); Intel HD Graphics 530 | RAM: 16GB DDR4 | Screen: 17.3-inch 4K (3,840 x 2,160) IPS with G-Sync | Storage: 1TB - 2TB HDD, 128GB SSD<br />

<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Affordable price</li>
<li>4K, G-Sync Display</li>
<li>Plastic-y build</li>
<li>Large physical size</li>
</ul>
<br />
Like the GameCube of laptops, the HP Omen 17 has the build quality of a children’s toy. However, when you see what it can do, you’ll wonder why it didn’t cost more. At 7 pounds, you’ll have to forgive the weight of the HP Omen 17 if you want to benefit from its 17-inch Quad-HD display. Of course, although the GTX 1070 is more of a 1440p performer than a 4K one, you can still expect a consistent 30 fps in games like The Division at the highest graphical settings. Overall, the HP Omen 17 is HP’s Gigabyte P57X equivalent, but with Bang & Olufsen speakers that might tip you over the edge.<br />

4. Gigabyte Aero 14<br />
<br />
An Ultrabook that’s first-rate in performance and value<br />
<br />
CPU: Intel Core i7 | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 (6GB GDDR5) | RAM: 16GB – 32GB | Screen: 14-inch, QHD 2,560 x 1,440 anti-glare IPS | Storage: 512GB – 1TB SSD<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Lightweight and thin design</li>
<li>Competitively priced</li>
<li>Battery life under-delivers</li>
<li>Loaded with bloatware</li>
</ul>
<br />
Donning a 7th-generation Intel Core i7 processor, Nvidia Pascal-series GPU and a screen resolution that soars above 1080p, this laptop is more affordable than a comparably specced Razer Blade or Alienware 13 R3. At the same time, it neglects to compromise in terms of portability and performance. This is a laptop, for instance, that weighs a mere 4.17 pounds (1.89kg) and measures in at 0.78 inches thin, undeniably a feat for a gaming machine. Factor in the 3 hour and 38 minute PCMark 8 battery test and 190-degree hinge, and it’s easy to see why the Gigabyte Aero 14 made the cut.<br />

A gaming-ready MacBook Pro rival<br />
<br />
CPU: 2.6GHz Intel Core i7-6700HQ | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 (6GB GDDR5 VRAM) | RAM: 16GB | Screen: 14-inch FHD (1,920 x 1,080) – QHD+ (3,200 x 1,800) IGZO (LED backlit, multi-touch) | Storage: 256GB – 1TB PCIe SSD<br />

<li>Impressive battery life</li>
<li>Thunderbolt 3 a smart add</li>
<li>Fans whir loudly under load</li>

<br />
For many gamers, Ultrabook is a four-letter word, but it doesn't have to be. The first time you get your hands on a Razer Blade, you'll be looking at a battery life of 3 hours and 35 minutes in-game (or six hours of non-stop video). While you could argue it does skimp as far as graphics are concerned, with the help of a Razer Core external GPU enclosure, you can strap an Nvidia Titan X inside if you want.<br />

Snapdragon Vs Mediatek, Which Chipset is the Best?

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
I’d always wondered why most smartphone users in this part of the world preferred to go for Mediatek chipset and totally dislike Snapdragon chipset… and by my findings, it’s basically because of the imei tweaking and nothing more to this.

Most OEM’s in this part of the world also preferred to release devices based on Mediatek instead of Snapdragon chipset, a perfect examples of these are all the new devices launched recently like Tecno, Infinix, Gionee,and the injurious InnJoo.  </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvAW0CR7XYQ_-RsdhhZ3s0d_zYWKGp8CVzDtmJ9s3BeQP0dPnQ3BXzEX4grE5BgmWMPa3Ikd6n3BsjMmAjSWdrhOCpv0FNasCSpaSMsOqLjhUPCx_ky2LoHHXCV8xIKBmsFqsOpiGjkJk/s1600/snapdragon%252Bvs%252Bmediatek.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvAW0CR7XYQ_-RsdhhZ3s0d_zYWKGp8CVzDtmJ9s3BeQP0dPnQ3BXzEX4grE5BgmWMPa3Ikd6n3BsjMmAjSWdrhOCpv0FNasCSpaSMsOqLjhUPCx_ky2LoHHXCV8xIKBmsFqsOpiGjkJk/s400/snapdragon%252Bvs%252Bmediatek.png" width="400" /></a></div>
In order to find out which chipset is better among the two chipsets, first of all we need to know how these chipsets are different from each other.

Now, let me explain them in detail in terms of gaming, efficiency and performance.

1) Mediatek: 
It is a Taiwanese company. It uses more cores in its processors (like octa core,hexa core,deca core).

Battery Life:
The Mediatek chipsets are known to be more power draining and results in less battery life. Now they are optimizing their processors to be more power efficient but still lags behind in terms of battery life.

Performance:
Performance wise MediaTek processors are very good. Due to the availability of extra cores, mediatek processors can handle intensive and heavy tasks and they are very good at multi-tasking. But we can see all this practically if we have sufficient Ram. Yes more cores demand more Ram to give best performance.

Heating Problem 
Now coming to the heating problem. All the processors deliver heat while performing tasks. Mediatek processors deliver more heat(more cores=more heat) than the others. The more the heat, the more the battery drainage.

Graphics:
Coming to graphics, Mediatek employs Mali graphics which is a third party graphics vendor(So graphics architecture is different from cpu and its performance may not match with cpu). It is really important to match the performances of cpu and gpu(graphics) so that the whole chipset performs efficiently and effectively.

2)Snapdragon:

Snapdragon chipsets are manufactured by Qualcomm (American) company.

Snapdragon chipsets are not only just CPU's they incorporate other many processors in their chipsets. This is the main difference between Snapdragon and other chipsets.

Snapdragon chipsets are named as SoC's(System on chip) which means their chipsets(SoC's) have a CPU,GPU(Adreno Graphics),Image processor, Media processor, DSP(Digital Signal Processor),Cellular Modem unit, Wifi Modue, Radio Module, GPS Module,...etc. All these modules and Processors are inside of a snapdragon chip. Yes they incorporated all these things inside their chips.Hence their chips are costly.

Battery Life:
Snapdragon chipsets are best in terms of power efficiency compared to all other chipsets.

Performance:
Performance wise they perform really well. In multi-tasking, gaming, handling heavy and intensive tasks they are very good.

Heating Problem:
Snapdragon Processors generally deliver less heat compared to Mediatek and Intel Atom(Except the Snapdragon 810 Chipset-that faced many heating issues.)

Graphics:
Coming to graphics, they manufacture their own graphics called Adreno Graphics and incorporate into their chips. So here the performance of cpu and gpu are matched.

My Conclusion

So I can confidently tell you that Snapdragon is the best and not mediatek.
Which one is the best for you?

Vernee Mars - To be the world's first Helio P10 smartphone to get Android 7.0 on 6th Dec!

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Google released its newest OS - Android 7.0 several months ago, and many renowned smartphone brands claim they will roll out this update very soon, among them are Huawei, Moto, and Sony. However, only several models have got updated already.

As the first Vernee model branded as finely-designed smartphone, Mars has won great popularity among its users and media.<br />

And it supports quick charge and sports a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Vernee has been clinging to its motto to keep rolling out updates for its all products, including the old ones. And it’s among the first to push out major Google OS update as well.

It is reported that Vernee will roll out Android 7.0 update on 6th December for Mars. This will make Mars the first Helio P10 smartphone to get this major update.

When next you want to buy a smartphone, get yourself something that will constantly receive updates and not the one that you’ll need to submit prayer points before the updates surface.</span></div>
