The best kind of device is the one that has an answer for all of the things you might need, and even some things you may have never known you needed at all. For some, that could mean that Sprint’s new LivePro device, an Android-powered machine that isn’t a smartphone or tablet, could just be the perfect combination of so many different things. At first glance, the LivePro from Sprint would just look like any other box with a somewhat large touchscreen on it....

Until they stopped getting mentioned. Today, processors remain important when it comes to smartphones but people no longer obsess about the number of cores in them or their clock speeds. They are more concerned about the brand and series of the processor (whether that is good or bad is, of course, another story for another day). The reason for this loss of interest in cores and clock speed stemmed from a simple fact: beyond a point, they did not make the sort of difference that mattered to consumers....

ETNews says both Samsung and LG will have devices out on the market in Q3 that use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800....

Benchmarks are dumb. I know this, you know this, a majority of the internet knows this, but sometimes benchmarks reveal some new information that you just have to appreciate. Case in point, someone recently ran the AnTuTu benchmarks on a device that’s allegedly powered by the Qualcomm APQ8084. That random string of letters and numbers might not mean anything to you, so here’s a quick refresher: The Snapdragon 800 goes by the name APQ8974....

As your company grows, you have more expenses, more contractors, more KPIs and more hands managing it all. If your communication happens through email, over the phone, in messages and via spreadsheets, sooner or later, you’re going to hit a wall. Eventually, you cave and sign up for a few services that help you keep things under control. But as your business grows, you add on another and another. Before you know it, you’re juggling not just a bunch of money payments but all those logins and passwords, too....

One of the most critical alterations Sony has made with these new phones is that a 14nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 630 processor has replaced their predecessor’s 16nm MediaTek chipset. The design has been tweaked ever so slightly, although the presence of huge bezels and the absence of an 18:9 aspect ratio will certainly haunt these devices’ success in 2018. The fingerprint sensor has been repositioned to the rear from the power button....

Existence of SSL There are basically two aspects of SSL. One is encryption and the second is identification. Encryption is what you do to hide the content of the data sent from one machine to another machine. It is done by changing the content of the data so it looks like garbage that is human-readable but not human-understandable. It is exactly like speaking in a different language with which one person is not familiar....

Didn’t I tell you on Monday? Oh, my… Be sure to agree upon deadlines, so that developers can be plan their time....
