Oppo Find 7a Outscores Find 7 On Benchmark Graphics Test

Oppo Find 7a Outscores Find 7 On Benchmark Graphics TestJust last week, Oppo announced two new handset in the form of the Oppo Find 7 and the Find 7a. For the most part the handsets appear to be similar in terms of design, but it’s under the hood which is where the differences lie.

The Find 7 will pack a QHD display, 3GB of RAM, and will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801. This is compared to the Find 7a’s Full HD display, 2GB of RAM, and the Snapdragon 800. On paper this would give the Find 7 a slight edge in terms of hardware. (more…)

    NSA Accused Of Spying On Huawei

    NSA Accused Of Spying On HuaweiIn the past we have seen how to the US government has warned not to trust companies like Huawei or ZTE for allegedly designing spyphones for the Chinese government. Naturally both companies have denied these allegations and in the latest Snowden leak, it seems a little ironic because it has been revealed that the NSA has been spying on Huawei themselves.

    This is according to a recently released report on Sunday which claims that the NSA has been snooping on Huawei and has even managed to obtain the source code for individual Huawei branded products, thus potentially allowing them to spy on other nations which uses Huawei’s hardware. (more…)

    Nokia Lumia 1020 Used To Shoot Fashion Magazines Entire IssueGiven how advanced smartphone cameras have gotten these days, it is possible to take photos and videos which are of excellent quality. Of course it cannot be compared to high end professional cameras, but we reckon it is more than decent for personal use as well as for enthusiasts.

    In the past we’ve seen how phones like the iPhone 5s was used to film a Burberry fashion show, and now it seems that for the 10th edition of their magazine, UK fashion magazine, Centrefold, has decided to do away with their more expensive cameras and shoot the entire issue using the Nokia Lumia 1020.

    LG KnockOn Feature To Arrive For L Series II Handsets This MonthOne of the new features that LG introduced to some of its Android handsets back in December of 2013 was the KnockOn feature. For those unfamiliar as to what the feature does, in case the name wasn’t obvious enough, is that it allows users to wake up their phone simply by double tapping the screen.

    Such features are available to Android phones that have been flashed with custom ROMs and tweaks, but for those unfamiliar with the process or do not want to do so, we guess KnockOn is a good alternative. (more…)

    Samsung Chromebook 2 Boasts Huge Performance Increase

    Samsung Chromebook 2 Boasts Huge Performance IncreaseWhile Chromebooks might not necessarily be as popular compared to regular laptops, they are slowly starting to catch on, thanks largely to its affordable price tag and its simplistic use which is great for people that don’t need to do a lot on their computers.

    Now earlier this month, Samsung announced the Chromebook 2 series which is naturally an upgrade over its predecessor, but exactly how much of an upgrade can you expect? Is the upgrade big enough to warrant you to upgrade, or perhaps enough for a non-Chromebook user to give it a go? (more…)

    UK Government Looking To Apply 20% VAT To Digital Downloads

    UK Government Looking To Apply 20% VAT To Digital DownloadsFor the most part, Apple’s iTunes App Store downloads are more or less valued the same based on the price of $0.99. Of course there will be differences due to the currency conversion, but for the most part they remain somewhat affordable. However it seems that in the UK, there is a chance that UK iTunes App Store users could face a price hike of 20% which is basically the country’s “value added tax”.

    Why is this? Well at the moment app stores like those by Apple and Amazon currently exploit a tax loophole which allows digital downloads, like apps, music, and books to be downloaded and bought without having to pay the 20% VAT, which in turn allows them to pay much lower international tax rates.
