Tech Learning

    Another year, another device... Really!? NOPE ... This time around Samsung isn't just serving up the usual tech upgrades; instead, they've unleashed their new smartphone lineup, the S24 series with something that's been around our ears for almost a year now... AI AI and AI!  Yes, Samsung calls it the "Galaxy AI" . Let's delve into its latest enhancements, software, processor capabilities, cameras, and, of course, "Galaxy AI" 1) Hardware Enhancements: The S24 and S24+ feature robust yet lighter aluminum, which Samsung calls "Armour Aluminum" . Following Apple's introduction of titanium in its newer iPhones, Samsung also incorporated titanium into its flagship Ultra phones. This time all the display panels are flat, but have a peak brightness of 2600 nits , which means it's bright, I mean really bright!  They've also upgraded the glass on the S24 Ultra with the new "Corning Gorilla Armor" which is a step up from th

    A mysterious event took place today in my class, turning what should have been a decent day of learning into an unexpected "comedy of errors" :)) Picture this: It was a quiet classroom, my friends and I were dutifully trying our best to jot down the calculus notes as it was really confusing, I'm pretty sure that Pythagoras himself would've scratched his head 😜 Out of the blue, my friend's phone, which was conveniently stationed right next to me started beeping with a 'never heard before' tone even though it was supposedly on silent mode! My friend went into full panic mode! Like a DJ at a techno concert, he furiously started pushing volume buttons, power buttons, and doing everything short of breaking the phone into pieces 😆 Nothing worked, so finally he did the unthinkable and force-shut the device off with a "shhhhhh" from the teacher!  When the teacher inquired about the "strange sound", I did what any good friend would do - I

    Let me get straight to the ANSWER... Nothing Phone(2) is NOT Overpriced!!! As a consumer electronics company, Nothing's AIM is to create tech that stands out. During an interview, Nothing's CEO Carl Pei mentioned that Nothing wants to help people spend less time on their smartphones because doing so will allow us to focus better on our jobs and maintain our digital well-being. Yes, Carl actually makes sense...   ₹ 44,999 worth spending? Let's find out... Starting with the ---D esign---:   This device feels and looks premium, for sure. With the curved back glass, bezel-less design and the 'glyph lights', this guy is an eye-catcher! Unlike the Phone(1), this device has 11 LED strips with 33 addressable lighting zones, which we will come to in a bit. Yes, the Phone(2) looks a lot like the Phone(1),[Hello  Apple],  but  come on , this device still looks elegant and feels more comfortable, and I say that... It's a confident design! Okayyy ---gLYPH LIGHTS---: Thi

Imagine... You are all alone at home, with no snacks and definitely no pocket money. Unfortunately, you are the kind of person who, while entering the kitchen to prepare a recipe, is expelled by your wife or parents! But you are starving and want SOMETHING to eat!!! Relax... AI is here to save you. An AI-powered digital chef named Chef GPT can generate recipes and assist in the kitchen. In essence, it uses Open AI's GPT-3 (an AI platform) to meticulously create a special recipe depending on the ingredients you have provided. Chef GPT is super simple to use:  1) Enter the ingredients you have.  2) Select the kitchen tools that can be accessed by you.  3) Set the timespan in which the recipe should be finished.  4) In this step, you have to let the system know whether you are a Beginner (Novice), intermediate, or expert so that it can personalize the results for you. 5) While selecting the chef mode, you have 2 options: Gourmet Mode : This uses only the best possible set of ingre

         For at least an hour daily, you'll be scrolling through YouTube shorts or reels where you'll come across amusing memes, crazy video edits, sports moments, etc. At that moment, you'll say, "Oh! I really want to add this video to my status and story". So want do you do? You'll either go to a third-party website that can read all your data, or you'll screen record, which is the worst option, in my opinion😶 I came across an app on GitHub which solves this issue!!! Seal is an excellent app for Android smartphones that lets you download any video from any platform across the web, whether it's YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and so on... As the above pic speaks, this app has a clean user interface based on stock Android .  Here are 3 reasons why you should consider downloading Seal: 1) The User Experience :  The app's based on stock Android and looks elegant and polished. There are no unnecessary features and most importantly,

    A couple weeks ago, I was in a great mood to listen to my favourite artist Martin Garrix's new album 'Sentio'; I was extremely pumped up. So I grabbed my pair of earphones, connected them to my phone, opened YouTube music, and shuffled songs from Garrix's Sentio album. After listening to only one song... Yes, ONE song... I got to hear 2 ANNOYING ADVERTISEMENTS 😐 So, I went on to search for the best ad-free music streaming platform for an android device. Spotify - Too many ads again! Wynk - No proper music recommendations. SoundCloud - Most of the songs cannot be accessed in India. Amazon Music - Need a subscription  Eventually, I went exploring GitHub , where developers share their handcrafted applications, where I came across a particular app which added a massive smile on my face 😁 The app that solves all the abovementioned problems is called "ViMusic" . Android users , you are in luck... V iMusic is an online music streaming app for Android smart
