Best Phones with the best battery life!

Battery life is a really big concern when we think of buying a new phone but there are some phones that are really good and have a great battery life! This article is actually about the BEST phone with BEST battery life, i mean i will suggest phones that are good and have the battery life! It is not going to be just battery life, if that happens, the answer is always going to be a phablet or something! So let us begin!

                           

1. AROUND 10K

Now this a category in which a lot of phones have a good battery life including the lumia 520, nokia x, and many more! But the best battery phones in this category is the nokia x! Surprising this an android and has a great and i think the best battery life in our next category too! Nokia x comes with a removable 1500mAH battery that can last more than a day on moderate usage! 

2. 10K-20K

This category is actually full of phones with good battery life like motog, lumia 720, xperia sp and more! The winners in this category are actually two! 

The first one is the Nokia lumia 720 that comes with a non removable 2000mAH battery! This battery is actually the best battery i ever experienced in a smartphone and can last over a day on heavy usage! When I used this device, i was even able to get two days on moderate usage!

Second winner in this category is the Moto g! I am recommending this phone just because some people don't windows phone and want to get good android with a good battery life! Battery life is no doubt better on the lumia 720 though! 

Moto g comes with a non removable 2070mAH battery that can last over a day on moderate usage, on heavy usage though, battery drains in 14-15 hours! Bugs have been reported about the battery life after the android 4.4.2 update, but they are going to fix that in the upcoming updates!

3.  20K-30K

This is the category when flagships category begins and most of the flagships aren't that good unless they are of huge size!
The winner in this category is no doubt the moto x! Moto x's battery remarkably really good even on using touchless controls and active display! Moto x comes with a non removable 2200mAH battery that can actually last a day on heavy usage! This is not really seen on flagships but on moto x i am spell bounded with the battery life! 

3. 30K-40K

This category contains a lot of phablets as i see it including the lumia 1520, lg g2, lg optimus g2, xperia x ultra and many more! So I am not going to recommend any phablet (more than 5 inch size) because their battery life is always great and there is no problem in the battery life of huge phones! But when it comes to phones with size of 5inch or less, there are some phones with not so great battery life and some with really great! Let's find who is the winner here!

The winner in this category is the Sony Z1 compact! Comes with a 2300mAH battery that is non removable but don't worry because the battery on this phone is really great and can surprising last more than a day on HEAVY usage! Yes, I am not lying, i used this phone and the battery is really good even if you don't use the battery saving features!

4. 40K AND ABOVE.

You don't really have a choice in this category execpt iphone 5s or the samsung galaxy note 3! But if you wait for a couple of weeks more, than three new phones will be added! Those are the Sony xperia z2, HTC one m8 and Samsung galaxy s5! All these phones have really great battery life and you don't really have to worry when you buy these! Iphone 5s however lags behind a little but the standby times are really great! 

-SO I GUESS THAT'S IT FOR THIS TIME! 

HOPE YOU LIKED IT!

Is The New HTC one (m8) worth it?

A lot of you might be holding your decision of buying a new phone for the new htc one to launch and now it is here and you might comparing it with other phones and thinking whether it is worth the wait or not?
Well, let me help and tell you whether the new htc one is worth the wait or not!

                                       





The new htc one(m8) is finally here and includes some magnificent changes and updates including sense6, new version of zoe, slow mo which is better than any other out there, two rear cameras for better photography and much more! These features create the new htc one a stand out device and different from any other smartphone launched this year including the galaxy s5 which added just a fingerprint scanner or a heart rate sensor which aren't really necessary features! The features that came in the new htc one are interesting and worthy! But i realized while looking at the event that some these features were inspired by other phones, like slow mo from the iphone or the refocus from the lumia devices!

One of the most interesting part of the device is its case that shows your weather and time in that using dot pixels when you double tap the phone which doesn't use your battery that much! You can also hold your phone onto your ear when a call comes and the phone will automatically answer it!

        
















The good thing about the HTC m8 is that there is no fantasy land involved, what I meant is HTC didn't put any features that we don't need like the samsung's eye gestures or something! All the new features that HTC put in are useful in real life and don't even consume battery at a high level like any other flagship!

But still these features are perfected to make your experience much more fast and soothing! So let us see the features of the new HTC one and the upgrades that HTC made are worth or not!

HARDWARE.

Well I can't and maybe you can't remember the last time HTC made an unattractive device! Recent masterpieces of HTC includes devices like the One X, One S and Windows Phone 8X! 

   

However, its crowning achievement was last year's HTC One, also known as the M7. The phone's fantastic industrial design and anodized aluminum shell are just two reasons it remains one of my favorites to this day.

There's no mistaking the fact that the new One (aka the M8) inherited a lot of traits from its predecessor, including BoomSound speaker grilles, a curved back and horizontal stripes. After all, if it ain't broke, why fix it? And believe it or not, the phone is made from even more metal than last year's model: roughly 90 percent of the chassis is made from aluminum, compared to 70 percent for the M7. That means the phone no longer sports polycarbonate accents on the top, bottom and sides; instead, metal wraps all the way around until it reaches the display. Throw in some rounded corners and a brushed-metal finish on the back, and you've got yourself a beaut. Still, beauty is also in the eye of the beholder!

But questions my mind, is the device too fragile? I mean if I drop this phone, I don't think it can survive without a case or so! 

So on the hardware side, the phone looks gorgeous unless you use a case for protection else you may have to use the HTC advantage once in a month! 

HTC made some more changes too like the screen is now of 5 inch and the power button now sits on the top right!

Even better, it has a new neighbor: a memory card slot! Indeed, the microSD spot can take cards up to 128GB, which will come in handy since you can only get up to 32GB of internal storage on the new One. Turning to the bottom of the phone, you'll find the micro-USB QuickCharge 2.0 port and 3.5mm headphone jack, while the left side houses a slot for the nano-SIM card. Sadly, the charger that comes included in the box only supports QuickCharge 1.0, which means you'll need to pay for an optional accessory just to take advantage of the faster charge time.

As on last year's model, the panel looks sharp, bright and vibrant; viewing angles are wide and the display is easy to see in direct sunlight as long as you push the brightness up to 75 percent or higher.

The screen itself is protected by a slab of Gorilla Glass 3, which is, of course, designed to be scratch-resistant.

UNDER THE HOOD!

Under the hood, the M8 comes loaded with a 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 chipset (it's 2.5GHz in certain regions), 2GB of DDR2 RAM, a 2,600mAh battery, dual-band 802.11a/ac/b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 with aptX.

Finally, one of the more curious hardware additions are the low-powered, alwaysl listening "Smart Sensors." Accelerometers are nothing new, but HTC's can be used by apps all day long without significant drain on the the battery (as they don't fire up the processor etc). As HTC's opened up the API for these -- dubbed HTC's Smart Sensor Hub -- app developers will be able to hook into this information directly!

These features make these new HTC really fast and competitive with other flagships out there, so it's going to be a really tough competition!

SENSE 6 UI.

The new HTC one comes with the new sense 6 UI which the HTC likes to call sixth sense which is pretty humorous as it doesn't predict the future or  something, anyways the android version you get here is the latest android 4.4.2! These all upgrades will come to the existing one series users around summer!

                   

As with most KitKat launchers, the M8 home screen feels more expansive because the status bar on top and virtual navigation bar on bottom are both transparent. You now have three soft keys representing buttons for back, home and recent apps which will allow you to take advantage of the full screen feature of KitKat! 

Most Sense apps and features comply with specific shades depending on which color theme you choose (by default, BlinkFeed is green, for instance), but you can change to other themes if you like.

                

On Sense 6, HTC is following Google's lead by making several of its proprietary apps available on the Play Store. The gallery, Zoe app and Sense TV are the first ones that receive this treatment. This is a smart move on HTC's part: Now, the company can push out updates to individual Sense services anytime it wants, rather than having to bundle new features and bug fixes into a firmware update that can take weeks to roll out (even longer if you live in the US). If this strategy is a success, we'll likely see HTC do the same thing with even more apps in the future.

There's a new gesture feature called Motion Launch, with which we have something of a love/hate relationship. It takes Nokia's and LG's double-tap-to-unlock and expands upon the concept with swipe gestures. You can still double-tap to wake up the lock screen, but you can also swipe your finger in different directions to bypass the lock screen entirely and take you directly into specific functions (provided you don't have any security locks in place). Swipe up to go into the home screen; swipe right to access BlinkFeed; swipe left to launch the widget panel; and swipe down to activate voice dial for faster calling. If you want to take a picture, hold the volume rocker and lift the phone up in landscape mode. The do not disturb is not new but its nice to have one and the new htc one got it!

            

In theory, the only way you can trigger Motion Launch gestures is when the phone senses movement -- it can tell that you're picking up your phone and assumes that you're wanting to turn the phone on. In practice, however, the gestures were too sensitive; I could wake up the phone when the One was sitting on my desk, resting in my pocket and when my thumb was firmly planted motionless on the screen. I'd also really like to customize the gestures to take me directly into apps that I use frequently, like email. Let's give HTC credit where it's due, though: This new functionality is pretty clever, and it'll likely get even smarter with future software updates.

CAMERA.

The camera on the previous year HTC one was pretty good unless you don't wanna zoom in but let's see whether this time it is perfected even more or not!

First off, HTC is sticking to its UltraPixel philosophy. In a nutshell, the idea is to taake a physically large sensor and combine it with big pixels that are capable of gathering more light than standard-sized ones. Many smartphone cameras feature 1.1µm pixels, while the One proudly boasts a one-third-inch BSI sensor with 2µm pixels capable of absorbing 330 percent more photons. It also uses ImageChip 2 and a 28mm f/2.0 AF lens that helps grab even more light. HTC believes you don't need a high-resolution sensor to take great pictures, and as long as you don't need to zoom in on anything, the quality should remain near the top of its class.Here is a sample which uses the duo camera!

The sad part of the camera is that the OIS is gone, HTC replied on this that they needed more space for mechanical components! But it's not the end of the world,, the features that we are getting instead are faster auto focus, anti shake feature which are really helpful and you would probably fidget the OIS while using these features!

 The M8 also features a dual-LED flash, which is designed to get rid of glare and make nighttime photos look more natural. This has been done in quite a few smartphones already, such as the iPhone 5s, but HTC's option is actually much brighter and produces more natural skin tones.

Along with Sense 6 comes a new user interface on the camera app. This version is streamlined with fewer options on top: videos, selfies, 360-degree pano shots (like Photo Sphere), dual-camera captures and Zoes are now all confined to separate modes that can be accessed on the lower-right corner. Each corner of the viewfinder has an icon (flash, settings, modes and gallery shortcut), and the only other UI element is the shutter button halfway down the right side. When you choose settings, you're presented with a bar of options along the bottom of the viewfinder. This includes ISO (up to 1600 on the M8), exposure, white balance, filters, random settings and scenes; the latter option lets you choose between no fewer than 11 scenes, including HDR, Night mode, manual, macro, sweep panorama and anti-shake, among others.

Manual mode reminds us of Nokia's fantastic camera app -- it brings up a whole new set of options along the bottom, and each one reveals a slider that lets you adjust white balance (you can customize temperature in Kelvins), exposure, ISO, shutter speed and focus. You can see the results in real time, so you don't have to worry about what the image is going to look like after you take the shot!

You might be wondering what's with the dual camera on the back? The dual camera does fancy like 3D imaging that we all were expecting but what it does is increase the quality of the photo at a much higher level and let's you edit your photo after the shoot is taken in much professional way like you can refocus objects (like on Nokia lumia phones) that are far away, lets you crop the whole subject from one photo to another! Basically the camera works now in a more professional way than before!

The quality of the images are obviously going to be exceptional and even from the front camera which is bumped up to 5mp wide angle view lens and can record full HD videos!
Here are some more samples!


















When we compare the lumia 1020 with the new htc one, this was the result!

PERFORMANCE AND BATTERY LIFE!

The performance is obviously going to be really great with the specs I mentioned earlier that include a 2.3ghz snapdragon 801 processor (which is the latest until the 805 comes later this year!) , 2gb ram powered by adreno 330! The performance is going to be top notch with these specs as we expect from a 2014 flagship but its the battery life where the new HTC one really shines!

    

As much as I like power, I love battery life even more. The M8 comes with a 2,600mAh battery inside, which is 300mAh larger than last year's version. Before reviewing the phone, I predicted that we'd see roughly the same life on this model as we did the M7, primarily because of the larger display and more powerful processor with a higher clock speed but the case is different here!
The battery features of htc m8 are really and on moderate usage , the htc m8 can go all day with 30% left! This is really a breakthrough as in flagship, i never saw this battery life with this much size of battery!

TO SUM UP...

The new HTC one is remarkably one of the best phones of this year with the best specs and the best design and material used! However I wanted the metal to be not increased to 90% add this can create heading issues which I am not yet sure but there could be the issue of the phone slipping off your hands at times!

But still I would love this phone to shine in the market and you should definitely wait for this phone if you want the best experience with the best hardware!

SO I GUESS THAT'S IT FOR THIS TIME! HOPE YOU LIKED IT!

Battle of the best androids- Moto X vs Nexus 5!

A few days back, the Moto X was launched in India and that resulted in people of twitter started comparing it with the nexus 5 already available because there is not that much price difference between these two but the moto x is still cheaper than the nexus 5 by 6k and actually i believe that's a big pro! But we are going to compare these two face to face with no price issues at all and see which is better! I did an article where the moto x was a better value for money phone, you can check that out here but we are going to see who is actually the best neglecting the price!



DESIGN.

Moto x has a really subtle, compact and handsome design for a phone with a rubberized back and is curved a little so that it fits very comfortably in hands! On the other hand, nexus 5 is a little thicker with matt finish back and is absolutely flat! This phone is actually really light and feels solid at the same time, that's a good thing! The moto x comes in a lot more color options including wooden, blue etc while the nexus 5 is limited to black and white! The design of both phones are remarkably really good but i am going to give a slight edge to the moto x because of its rounded shape that feels better than the flat body of the nexus 5!


DISPLAY.

The moto x has a 4.7inch 720p AMOLED ( 312 ppi pixel density) display which looks really nice and has great outdoor visibillity! While on the nexus 5, we have a 5inch 1080p LCD (445 ppi pixel density) display which is ultra sharp and way better than the moto x! So the nexus 5 wins here! 

PERFORMANCE.

When it comes to performance, you will notice absolutely no lags in both the phones but when you compare them head to head, there's a different result!

The moto x rocks a Moto X8 chip consisting 8 cores including a 1.7ghz dual core snapdragon s4 pro processor and adreno 320 assisted with 2 more cores for voice and language recognition system! The dual core sounds pretty bad but the performance is really good and you should not underestimate it on that! 
The nexus 5 on the other hand consists of a 2.3ghz quad core processor and adreno 330 which performs like a beast! The winner in this category no doubt the nexus 5! I am not saying that the moto x is bad but when you compare both the phones together, nexus 5 is a clear winner!

SOFTWARE.

On the software side, there's not much difference between these two! The Moto x runs on near pure andoid running android 4.4.2 and nexus 5 runs on pure android with the same android version!
When we talk about future updates, the nexus 5 gets a slight benefit and will receive updates a slight earlier than the moto x!

CAMERA.

The camera of both the phones are not really good and both are average performers!
But still we will decide a winner! Moto x consists of a 10MP lens with a single LED and can record videos up to 1080p! The nexus 5 has a 8MP shooter with single LED and can record videos up to 1080p! 
When we talk about quality, the nexus 5 takes the points, don't get me wrong, i know there are more pixels on the moto x but the quality is still better on the nexus 5! But when we talk about shutter speed, the camera on the moto x is way faster than the nexus 5! 
As I said before the quality is average and non satisfactory on both and if you love taking photographs from your phone, you should probably consider something else!


ADDITIONAL FEATURES.

Now when we talk about additional features, the moto x rules here with the touch less controls and active display! The only thing nexus 5 can do is reply with the call of "ok google" only when it is turned on! The one feature that you get on the nexus 5 is the wireless charging which is pretty helpful at times! But still the  moto x wins here!



BATTERY LIFE.

Now by reading all these stuff, you probably be wondering hows the battery life then?
There's not really difference in size as the moto x consists of a 2200 mAh battery and the nexus 5 has a 2300 mAh battery! By looking at the sizes, you would probably think, the nexus 5 will be better but i should stop you right there as the moto x wins here with much higher battery life! On moderate usage, moto x without any problem will get you a day or even more if you are a light user but on the nexus 5, you can hardly get a day out of it!


TO SUM UP..

Both the phones are awesome in their own fields, the moto x is a phone that can impress at lot more levels other than playing high end games like active display, touchless controls or even the battery life! But if you want the top notch specs and remain ahead in android updates, go for the nexus 5! 
My personal choice? My personal choice will be the moto x with better features and battery life! Nexus 5 is not bad but there are some quarks that concern me and that's why my recommendation will be the moto x!


So that's it for today's article! HOPE YOU LIKED IT!

THE AGE OF SMARTWATCHES IS COMING!

As you all know, a few days back Google launched the android wear, a specialized version of android just for smartwatches! If you still are not aware of it, watch the video here! So A lot of people are asking me whether this will change my views about smartwatches or not because i initially wrote an article about smartwatches, if you wanna check that out, read it here! So let's find whether you should still avoid a smartwatch or not!

First we are going to take a look at the options available or will be available in future to buy! 

1.PEBBLE

Pebble is right now the most popular and  successful smartwatch in market selling about 400k units! Pebble runs on the closed source Pebble OS with a LCD screen and vibrates when a notification comes! Pebble can run 8 apps at a time and can connect with any android or IOS device! You can download more apps and even low graphical games from the pebble app store available on both android and ios! The good thing about pebble is that it run for about a week on moderate usage! So this is right the most powerful competitor in the smartwatch market! Price is 229$ that is pretty decent given the price of other smartwatches!


2.SAMSUNG GALAXY GEAR 2

So the galaxy gear 2 by Samsung was recently launched in the mwc 2014 and really created a hike because of the Tizen OS that it was running instead of the android os! So how was is the galaxy gear 2 because its predecessor really created a bad impression because of its high price and the battery life, and even its compatibility with only Samsung devices! The Galaxy gear 2 is actually running the tizen os so that the battery life remains good and has really a high end specifications in the field of smartwatches including a 1ghz dual core processor and 512 RAM! It also consists of a 2mp camera and a 1.63 inch AMOLED display! This watch is IP67 approved that means it is water and dust proof! This watch is not yet totally in the markets but it looks really promising! So I am hoping for the best! Price is 295$ which is pretty tough to buy and samsung almost did it again!


3. THE MOTO 360

The moto 360 is not yet in the market but this is the watch that is going to bring a revolution in the smartwatch market as this watch runs on the latest android wear i mentioned earlier! According to rumours this watch will have wireless charging that i was waiting for and a OLED sapphire screen i mentioned in my recent article! This watch is the watch i think will win but we will see that later!



SO THOSE WERE THE BEST SMARTWATCHES THAT COULD BRING A CHANGE IN THE SMARTWATCH MARKET BUT THERE ARE MORE I AM WAITING FOR ACTUALLY LIKE APPLE'S IWATCH AND LG'S SMARTWATCH RUNNING ANDROID WEAR!

MY VIEWS ARE CHANGED OR NOT? AHH, YA! ACTUALLY NOW I AM THINKING THAT SMARTWATCH MARKET COULD CHANGE AND I WILL BUY SMARTWATCH ONE DAY AND YOU SHOULD TOO BECAUSE THAT'S THE FUTURE! THE BEST RIGHT NOW CANNOT BE SAID UNTIL THE MOTO 360 COMES AND EVEN THE APPLE IWATCH! 


SO That's it for this time, there are other news too but i thought these were the most important!

Phonesoldier talks: tech roundup #1

So this is a new series of articles I am beginning that will important technology news from the past couple of days and I will share my views on it! So this is phonesoldier talks: tech roundup #1!

1. Twitter kills-off #music app

Less than a year ago, back in mid-April 2013, we saw Twitter introduce the world to its Twitter #music app for iOS.  It took advantage of iTunes to offer users previews of any songs they ran across, and by tying into an account with a streaming provider like Spotify, you could even pull up full tracks. Twitter talked about its big plans, like making #music available in additional countries and coming out with an Android version… and that’s pretty much the last I ever heard of it. Apparently I was not the only one who lost interest in the service, as today Twitter announced the end of #music.

Twitter is pulling the #music app from Apple’s App Store today, and if you already have it installed, it will stop functioning as of April 18 – which I am sure is no coincidence that it would also be the app’s one-year birthday.

The company says that it will “continue to experiment with new ways to bring you great content based on the music activity we see every day on Twitter,” but has not given any indication that another stand-alone would be part of those plans; if we do ever see something like #music again, it seems likely that it might be baked right in to the main Twitter app itself.

2. Google Now may auto-suggest Calendar events based on your conversations

Google already takes advantage of the connections between all the services it offers to provide its users some convenient, time-saving tools. For instance, when you get a message in Gmail that mentions a time or date, Google automatically detects that text, underlines it, and gives you a quick way to add the event directly to your Google Calendar. From the looks of things, though, Google may be about to take this kind of automated system and really run with it, letting Google Now detect events in conversations you have from sources beyond just Gmail, and then suggest you add them to your Calendar.

It’s not clear exactly what Google Now would scan in order to make these inferences, but the presumption is that besides Gmail, we’d also be looking at Hangouts, including IMs and maybe even text messages. There’s also no telling when the feature might go live (assuming it actually does), but with some of the framework in place already, this could very well crop up in the next release or two.

8.9-inch Google Nexus tablet might be in the works

There are recently a lot of rumors regarding the release of a new nexus tablet that might be bigger than its predecessor scaling around 9inch (8.9 inch more precisely), this might be a good thing as the nexus 7 we were using was pretty small and was not enough of giving the experience that was required in terms of size! The expectation is that this will be a lower volume product, carrying a premium price tag to support the specifications”, claims the report, which also mentions “high-performance” specifications. Google’s Nexus line-up isn’t known to carry premium price tags, but the rumors about this device talk about a higher than $299 price tag; HTC might be the manufacturer, according to the report!

SO this is actually good in my view as i find the old nexus pretty small!

Windows Phone 8.1 hinted on Microsoft’s website

The next iteration of Windows Phone, codenamed Blue, and with version number 8.1, is expected to be unveiled at the Build event happening soon. While many of its upcoming features have been leaked online, rumored, or unofficially unveiled with a lot of videos and tutorials, there might still be some surprises waiting for us. 

Heading over to the source image , you will land on the official Windows Phone page . At the top left, you can choose to see Windows Phone 8, or Windows Phone 8.1 features. Of course, the Windows Phone 8.1 link will take you to an error page. Nothing specific to see there at the moment, but we’re guessing that the page will be populated at the beginning of April, after Microsoft’s Build event, where the platform is expected to see the light of day.

Nokia’s latest Lumias may launch earlier than expected

When it comes to Windows Phone news, as well as news of the latest Lumia smartphones from Nokia, there are two dates that i am keeping in mind: April 2, and April 19. The former is when Microsoft’s Build conference gets underway this year, and sometime during the event (which runs though April 4), we’re expecting Microsoft to make a big Windows Phone 8.1 announcement that all are excited the most about. The latter date is one we’ve heard rumored for a Nokia event, where it would presumably introduce its first native WP8.1 handsets which i tweeted a few days back. Now, however, it seems that those new Lumias may make their first public appearance a little earlier, with rumors claiming that a pair of handsets will debut at Build itself.

Supposedly, Nokia would introduce the Lumia 630 and Lumia 930 at Build. We assume that the mention of the 630 here also includes the 635, as we’re expecting only minor differences between the two. While the 630 sounds relatively middle-of-the-road, the 930 could be a real treat, and we’ve seen it attached to specs like a 4.5-inch 1080p screen.

Beyond these two, I also heard once again about the device codenamed Goldfinger. . While Goldfinger wouldn’t join the 630 and 930 next month, it’s reportedly still in the works, though its launch timeframe may have been pushed back. 

Motorola Moto 360 smartwatch rumored to have sapphire face

Long before anyone was talking about bringing the protection of synthetic sapphire glass to smartphone screens, the material was being used to protect the faces of high-end watches; considering how constantly exposed to the threat of damage a watch can be, using a resilient substance like sapphire made a lot of sense. But will sapphire make the transition from old “dumb” watches to also keep this latest generation of smartwatches looking good as new? That’s the possibility I am considering today, upon hearing that Motorla’s upcoming Android Wear-powered Moto 360 may feature just such a sapphire crystal.

Apple looking to fix its iPhone battery issues with new patent

This is actually the most important news in the past couple of days as the battery problem is really a big flaw for which most of the users don't appreciate about! At a time when batteries keep getting bigger and bigger, you’d think that Apple would lead this trend since the biggest complaint that all iPhone users share, is their hatred for its battery life. The irony is that Apple has only grown the iPhone’s battery 12% in the last seven years, when compared to Samsung which has almost tripled it. Apple clearly has a problem to fix, and a new patent sheds some light into where it’ll focus on next.

This patent will allow the iphone to automatically adjust the battery according the charging periods and usage! That's pretty cool!


That's it for this time, there are other news too but i thought these were the most important!
