ANDROID 9

Introduction

Android 9 is officially here and we would be remiss not to mention our slight disappointment at the Pie moniker. Don't get us wrong, pie sounds perfectly mouth-watering and playful, but perhaps just a bit too plain for an Android name? Considering the track record so far, that is. Also, not using the π symbol, just seems like a massive missed opportunity.                                                                                                                      Anyway, naming aside, there are some really interesting new features to look forward to in Android 9. That being said, "new" is rather relative here. Google's development process for Android is becoming an increasingly open and feedback-based one. More than anything, however, such a large mass of people is paying close attention to the dev process, nowadays, that few things can truly come as a surprise in a new release.
Android 9 Pie review
                                                                                                                                                           Still, now that Android 9 is officially out of the beta channels and making its way into the general public, we wanted to take the opportunity to go through some of the main additions to AOSP in more detail and see just how much they have changed/matured, since our review of the first Android P public beta.
Spoiler alert, If you've been keeping up with the development of Android 9 over the past few months, there's nothing really new or shocking coming up ahead. So, to spice things up further, we also took the liberty of re-running our standard set of benchmarks on a Google Pixel 2 XL unit, running the latest public Pie build. We also wanted to see just how much effect on the battery endurance the OS update has. So, we ran our standard endurance routine on the Pie-infused Pixel 2 XL, as well.

Mi max 3 review

Introduction Remember when people made fun of the original  Samsung Galaxy Note  and its "humungous" 5.3-inch display? Oh, how the times have changed. Still, have we really come to a point where a 6.9-inch diagonal behemoth is able to avoid the "tablet" category and stretch the already confusing phablet category even further? Well, we definitely don't want to be on the wrong side of history here. Plus, we're all for a positive body image. So, power to Xiaomi and the Mi Max 3! Obviously, the company has decided it's got a wide enough user base for such a device. And truth be told, they've achieved a pretty sleek and compact design thanks to the impossibly slim bezels and the trendy 18:9 tall aspect ratio. Xiaomi Mi Max 3 specs Body:  Metal unibody, glass front; 176.2x87.4x8mm, 221g. Display:  6.9" IPS LCD, 2,160x1,080px resolution, 18:9 aspect ratio, 350ppi. Rear camera:  Primary 12MP, 1.4µm pixel size, f/1.9 aperture, dual pixel PDA...

oppo f9 reviwe

Introduction The Oppo F9/F9 Pro is yet another installment in the hugely popular Oppo mid-range series. It's the first phone in the family with a dual-camera on the back and backtracks on the screen cutouts by moving to a tiny waterdrop notch.                                                         You have probably noticed we are using the F9/F9 Pro inscription for this review and there is a reason for that. Oppo has chosen a rather awkward approach to the naming of its mid-ranger. In India - one of the key markets for the F-series - the F9 is available in two versions. There is the F9 Pro with 6GB of RAM, a 25MP selfie camera and VOOC flash charging, and the regular Oppo F9 with 4GB of RAM, a 16MP selfie shooter, and no VOOC charging. Yet in every other market Oppo is selling only the F9 but with specs matching the Indian pro version(6GB, ...
