Windows Vs. Android

HP claims Windows phone more secure than Android


Android has been the choice for majority number of smartphone makers, and that’s the major reason how Google’s platform managed to grab a market share of 80 per cent.
HP Elite X3 is touted as company's super flagship device that runs on windows 10
Microsoft on the other hand is committed to working with its partners on enhancing the Windows 10 Mobile experience. HP has already launched its super flagship Elite X3 with Windows 10 Mobile, although Android could have offered much more features than Microsoft’s operating system.
HP is a statement for onMSFT said that adoption of Windows 10 Mobile over Android was mostly based on security reasons, as the company wanted Elite X3 to excel in the security department.
Slideshows provided by HP show that Windows 10 Mobile is much more secure than Android. The fragmentation of the Android OS is also one of the reasons HP chose Windows 10 Mobile over Google’s OS.
HP claims there are at least 75,000 known security threats in Android platform, while a graph showing that 36 per cent of the Android devices still running on KitKat. HP believes Windows 10 Mobile has some advantages over the Android platform, but this doesn’t mean Windows platform is a flawless OS.
HP was particularly interested in universal apps, which Microsoft has been working on these days, explaining that lack of apps is not an matter of concern for the platform since the essential apps such as Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram are already available on the platform. The company also names legacy app virtualisation and compatibility as other major reasons to choose Windows 10 Mobile over Android.
If the rumours are to be believed, HP is working on a consumer-centric Windows phone which could be launched in first quarter of 2017, but neither HP nor Microsoft have confirmed the reports.

Apple Drone

Here's what an Apple drone might look like Many major tech companies are eyeing drones — Amazon, Google and even Facebook. It's unclear at this point whether Apple wants in, too, but one designer has envisioned what the company's version of a drone might look like if it ever launched one. German designer Eric Huisman mocked up a sleek drone concept called the  Apple Quadcopter , which has a minimalistic black-and-white design. It's very, well,  Apple . In a series of photos posted to his  website , which are stylized to look like Apple's traditional promotional pictures, the company's iconic logo sits in the middle of a slightly curved body, an element that Huisman says will support its many built-in cameras. Similar to a typical quadcopter, the Apple drone has four rotors and four cameras that can shoot still and panoramic photos (up to 100MP). The concept, which was first spotted by  CNET , also incorporates 4K video functionality and built-...

Apple Car

Could This Be The Apple Car? There’s been plenty written about the potential Apple car. Now, though, we have an interesting guess as to what it might look like when it hits the road. This version is quintessentially Apple with smooth lines, tons of technology, and that iconic Apple logo prominently featured. These Apple car concepts were drawn up by  CarWow ,and they include both interior and exterior design possibilities. It starts by taking a cue from Tesla with an absentee grille and flowing, aerodynamic lines that look a bit like the Magic Mouse. Colors are white, black, and gold in a nod to the newest iPhones with carbon-fiber reinforced plastics that include a coating to keep dirt from marring that perfect finish. The wheels are designed to cut drag and look good. The interior is where it suddenly looks like no other car. There’s a fingerprint-reading home button on the driver and passenger front doors and it’s all unlocked from the outside with a left to rig...

Fortunately, there's an Android app that can help, shutting down some non-essential system tasks and background processes to give your handset the chance to cool off. You can choose from a one-tap quick fix or a more detailed manual mode. The app in question is  EaseUS Coolphone  and it offers several ways to wave a metaphorical fan in front of your phone's face. You can tap the quick cool button on the app's opening screen, via the app's one-button widget or from the app's entry in the notification drawer. After a few moments of scanning, you can choose to apply the changes suggest by the app. It will look for apps running in the background that don't necessarily have to be there, as well as settings that can be turned off to reduce the work your phone's doing. If you find these changes t...
