2022 Apple 10.9-inch iPad (10th Gen)

Apple A15 Bionic

Next is the A15 Bionic processor from Apple. With its 6-core processor and 5-core graphics processor, this chip made its debut in 2021 with Apple’s sixth-generation iPad mini and iPhone 13 series smartphones.

Given that the CPU and GPU are still among the top five quickest, despite being three years old, Apple’s A15 Bionic was said to be 50% faster than Qualcomm’s processor in performance.

However, the A15 Bionic was also a significant improvement for people who were already part of the Apple ecosystem. According to the firm, the new iPad mini, with the A15 Bionic processor, had a significant boost in CPU and graphics performance, respectively, than the previous iPad Mini.

When paired with the machine learning enhancements from Apple’s 16-core Neural Engine, which was unveiled with the A14 Bionic, the new iPad mini could process machine learning tasks twice as quickly. Although the A15 Bionic didn’t significantly outperform the A14 Bionic with raw performance, it’s still one of the best.

Here are the tablet powered by the A15 Bionic:

Apple M1

For the majority of their existence, Apple’s iPad Pros and smartphones essentially shared processors, included in improved model versions. When Apple unveiled the 3rd generation 11-inch iPad Pro and the 5th generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro in 2021, everything changed. These, which featured Apple’s M1 processor, which had made its debut in laptops like the Apple M1 MacBook Air a year earlier, reduced the performance difference between Apple’s premium tablets and laptops.

It should come as no surprise that this new processor provided significant performance improvements used in the previous generation of iPad Pros since the M1 was essentially an 8-core desktop and laptop processor.

With additions like a 16-core Neural Engine, an image signal processor (ISP), and high-speed RAM, Apple promised 50% greater processing performance and 40% quicker graphics performance.

The final product was a tablet that, in theory, could have taken the place of most laptops, but recent evaluations of the iPad Pro suggested that iPadOS prevented it from doing so.

Overall, when it comes to performance, the iPad Pros were undisputed. Despite their restrictive operating system, the M1 chip still excels even now.

Here are two tablets or iPads powered by the Apple M1 chip:

2021 Apple iPad Pro 12.9-inch (5th Gen)

2021 Apple iPad Pro 11-inch (3rd Gen)

Apple M2

In 2022, Apple introduced the new iPad Pro, powered by the Apple M2 processor, despite holding an unchallenged dominance. With two significant improvements to try to persuade owners of M1 iPad Pros to upgrade, there were no changes to the size options, as they were similar to the previous generation, measuring 11 and 12.9 inches, and had essentially the same features.

Midway through 2022, the Apple M2 processor made its appearance with a far more powerful 10-core graphics processor and an improved 8-core CPU, replacing the M1’s seven or eight-core GPUs. The outcome was a remarkable 35% increase in graphics rendering and up to 15% higher CPU performance.

The M2-powered iPad Pros are now even more capable of machine learning tasks than they were previously, which also enabled the M2’s Neural Engine to execute 40% more operations than the M1.

The inclusion of Apple Pencil Hover was the largest improvement on the M2 iPad Pro, even with the improved performance. The Hover, which allowed the tablet to detect and recognize the stylus from up to 12 millimetres away from the screen, was a favourite feature among iPad users.

This feature allowed for both practical behaviours like brush and eraser previews in drawing apps and aesthetically pleasing UX details like app icons and text fields enlarging before you touch them.

With it being another great processor, the Apple M2 is the second on the list. Bringing overall faster performance and creativity options for artists, the M2-iPad Pro tablets are the most reliable.

Here are three tablets powered by the Apple M2 chip:

2022 iPad Pro 11-inch (6th Gen)

2022 iPad Pro 12.9-inch (6th Gen)

iPad Air (6th Gen)

Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

Our runner-up in the Android tablet processor side is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. Despite not being the most recent release of Qualcomm’s flagship CPU, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 proudly leads the Android tablet market thanks to Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S9 tablets.

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1’s widely reported heat problems prevented it from outperforming the Snapdragon 888 it replaced, therefore Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 processors didn’t get off to the best start.

Fortunately, Qualcomm resolved the issue with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 before launching the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 in 2022. Although Qualcomm’s primary focus was on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2’s AI capabilities, the chip also promised significant performance and efficiency gains. The company claimed a 40% higher CPU power efficiency and 25% better GPU performance.

Upon testing, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processing results were significantly better than those of its predecessor, particularly in the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9. Speaking of the Tab S9, it was ranked as the best tablet for students and rivals the iPad Pro thanks to its features.

Being the runner-up, it’s good to see that Android tablet users can appreciate powerful tablets that rival the iPads from Apple. Despite the tablets being priced less, the performance remains impressive even if it closely matches that of the most powerful processor.

Here are tablets that are including the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2:

Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 | Tab S9+ | Tab S9 Ultra

Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro 12.4

Apple M4

Despite the introduction of the Apple M3 chip towards the end of 2023, Apple maintained its dominance of the market for a few years with the Apple M2.

The iPad Pro M2’s performance advantage over Android competitors was so great that Apple could have continued producing it without any problems for the next few years. Yet in mid-2024, Apple released the new iPad Pro with the newer Apple M4 processors, a significant upgrade over the previous iPad Pro.

A new Ultra Retina XDR display, a new thin body, and the power of Apple’s newest and finest CPU were all features of the iPad Pro, which was entirely enlarged to 11 and 13 inches.

With its 10-core CPU and 10-core GPU, the Apple M4 boasts a claimed 1.5x processing performance boost over the M2 iPad Pro while consuming half the power thanks to new hardware capabilities and ML accelerators.

Since the most basic iPad Pros only have a nine-core CPU, Apple restricts the M4’s full capabilities to a premium upgrade. Additionally, the iPadOS software continues to be a hindrance.

Overall, the Apple M4 chip takes the number 1 spot on the list, making it the fastest tablet processor of this year. Optimizing the amazing Apple iPad Pro, it’s evident the tablet is smoother and faster than ever before.

Here’s the tablet with the M4 processor:

2024 Apple iPad Pro 11 | Pro 13

This goes without saying, but the DualSense is the most dependable and reasonably priced alternative.

This is a fantastic option if you have the extra money to spend and is willing to pay a bit more for the vast amount of additional capabilities.

Nothing compares to the satisfaction of pressing a tactile, ‘clicky’ switch, and the Stealth Ultra’s face buttons are some of the greatest. If you’re on a limited budget, there are alternative options. Proper swappable thumb sticks are a better option than the provided thumbstick caps. Instead, get an Xbox Elite Series 2 if this feature is important to you.

Overall, the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra stands out above the rest thanks to its buttons, thumb sticks, and the colorful display. But the frustrating and buggy software is a letdown from it becoming the best.

CONS

Do yourself a favor and get an arcade stick if you enjoy playing fighting or arcade games on console. But for PC gamers, get the Razer Kitsune game controller.

With its “stickless” D-pad design, the controller features buttons that move in all directions. There are benefits, such as a faster input speed (milliseconds count in fighting games), improved precision, and simpler execution of certain maneuvers, but it could take some getting accustomed to. This PlayStation-licensed device has all the extra buttons you need to knock-out opponents in addition to the directional controls.

It’s lightweight and portable enough to move around to tournaments and competitions. It’s the perfect size to allows for both hands to rest comfortably on it too. You can even customize the look of the controller by adding a ‘Razer skin‘ to give it personality.

Despite this, the controller still feels solid and long-lasting, and the optical switches on the buttons are surprisingly quiet and responsive.

Laptop Versus Tablet: The Ultimate Showdown Of The Year

Posted on September 6, 2024 by LGMadyibi

The age-old debate of laptop versus tablet has raged on for years, each device offering its unique set of advantages. In this showdown, we’ll weigh the pros and cons of both to help you decide which one is the best fit for your needs.

1 – Laptops: The Workhorses of the Digital World

Laptops have been the go-to devices for productivity and multitasking for decades. They offer a larger screen, full-sized keyboards, and more powerful hardware, making them ideal for demanding tasks like video editing, programming, or gaming.

Imagine a laptop as your trusty steed, always ready to carry you through your daily quests. It’s the knight in shining armor of the digital realm, capable of slaying dragons (or, you know, writing reports) with ease.

2 – Tablets: The Portable Powerhouses

Tablets, on the other hand, have become increasingly popular for their portability and versatility. They offer a more relaxed and casual computing experience, perfect for consuming media, browsing the web, and light productivity tasks.

Think of a tablet as your trusty sidekick, always ready for adventure. It’s the Swiss Army knife of the digital world, capable of handling a variety of tasks with ease.

3 – Laptop versus Tablet – Key Differences

Screen Size: Laptops typically have larger screens, providing more real estate for multitasking and productivity. Tablets, while smaller, are more portable and ideal for media consumption.
Keyboard and Mouse: Laptops offer a full-sized keyboard and mouse, making them more suitable for typing-intensive tasks. Tablets rely on touchscreens, which can be less precise for typing but are great for drawing and other creative tasks.
Hardware: Laptops generally have more powerful hardware, including processors, graphics cards, and RAM, making them better suited for demanding tasks like gaming and video editing. Tablets are designed for portability and often have less powerful hardware.
Operating Systems: Laptops primarily run on Windows or macOS, while tablets often use Android or iOS. The choice of operating system can influence the available apps and software.

The best device for you depends on your specific needs and preferences. If you require a powerful machine for demanding tasks, a laptop is the way to go. However, if you prioritize portability and a casual computing experience, a tablet may be a better fit. Consider the following questions when making your decision:

What will you primarily use the device for? (work, entertainment, education)
How important is portability to you?
Do you need a full-sized keyboard and mouse?
What is your budget?

While the Galaxy S24 Ultra represents a significant step forward for Samsung, it’s not without its shortcomings. The display, while exceptional, is still not perfect, and the charging speed remains disappointingly slow compared to other smartphone competitors. However, these minor criticisms do little to overshadow the device’s overall excellence.

Samsung has delivered a refined flagship experience with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, building upon the strengths of its predecessors while introducing subtle but impactful improvements.

The device’s impressive performance, enhanced camera system, and elegant design solidify its position as a top contender in the smartphone market. Despite a few minor drawbacks, the Galaxy S24 Ultra remains the recommended choice for those seeking a premium smartphone experience.

Samsung’s dominance in the foldable market has allowed it to take a more leisurely approach to innovation. While the Galaxy Z Fold6 represents a refinement of the foldable formula, it lacks the groundbreaking advancements we’ve come to expect from a flagship device.

The device’s strengths lie in its refined design, impressive display, and solid performance. However, areas like camera technology and charging speed have stagnated, failing to keep pace with the rapidly evolving smartphone landscape.

While the Galaxy Z Fold6 remains the best foldable option available, it’s clear that Samsung has room for improvement in future iterations.

Galaxy Z Flip6

While the Galaxy Z Flip6 offers a refined foldable experience, it lacks the groundbreaking advancements seen in previous generations. Samsung’s dominance in the market has allowed it to take a more leisurely approach to innovation.

While the device boasts improvements in camera performance and battery life, these advancements are not significant enough to justify a major upgrade for existing Z Flip users. Additionally, the charging speed remains slow, and the cover screen could benefit from further enhancements.

Despite these minor shortcomings, the Galaxy Z Flip6 remains a compelling choice for those seeking a compact and stylish foldable smartphone. Its strong software features, including One UI and AI integration, provide a valuable user experience.

Galaxy A35 5G

The Samsung Galaxy A35 is the budget-friendly performer. It offers a compelling combination of features at an affordable price point. Its stylish design, durable build, and capable cameras make it a standout option in the mid-range smartphone market.

While the Galaxy A35 may lack some features found in more expensive models, such as mmWave 5G support and additional RAM, it delivers excellent value for its price. Its competitive pricing and long-term software support make it a compelling alternative to the Google Pixel 7a.

The absence of a rotating bezel, a larger display, and a more affordable price point could be perceived as drawbacks for some users. Additionally, the proprietary wireless charging standard limits compatibility with third-party accessories.

Overall, the Galaxy Watch Ultra is a premium smartwatch that offers a compelling combination of features and performance. However, potential buyers should carefully consider their priorities and budget before making a decision.

Galaxy Buds3 Pro

FEATURES: Active noise cancellation | 7 hours battery life | weighs 5.4g | includes Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity | IP57 waterproof

The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro deliver impressive audio quality and active noise cancellation, making them a compelling choice for audio enthusiasts. While the design may not be groundbreaking, it offers a premium aesthetic and comfortable fit.

Samsung has addressed some of the shortcomings of previous models, resulting in a more refined and enjoyable listening experience. However, certain features, such as advanced audio customization, are limited to users of the latest Galaxy devices.

The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro’s premium price tag might be a deterrent for some, but those seeking top-tier wireless earbuds will appreciate their exceptional sound quality and noise-canceling capabilities.

The 5 Best iPad Pro Alternatives To Buy Now

Posted on July 25, 2024 by LGMadyibi

Apple’s iPad Pro reigns supreme in the tablet world, offering a powerful processor, stunning display, and a sleek design perfect for work, creativity, and entertainment. But that premium price tag might not fit everyone’s budget, or perhaps you’re looking for a specific feature the iPad Pro lacks. Fear not. A range of compelling alternatives offer fantastic functionality at a more accessible price point, or cater to specialized needs. If that interests you, let’s explores the best iPad Pro alternatives currently available, highlighting their strengths and guiding you towards the perfect tablet for your unique requirements.

Choosing the Best iPad Pro Alternative

Before diving into the world of iPad alternatives, take a moment to consider how you’ll be using this device. Are you a casual web browser and movie streamer, or a productivity powerhouse needing to run demanding applications? Knowing your needs will guide you towards the features that matter most. Here are some key criteria to consider once you’ve established your tablet’s purpose:

1 – Screen Size: Measured diagonally in inches, screen size dictates your workspace. Larger screens (think 14 inches) offer more room for creative work and movie marathons, but come at the cost of portability. Smaller screens (11-inches and below) offer less views but costs less and is weighs less.

2 – Screen Resolution: Higher resolution means sharper visuals and a more enjoyable content experience.

3 – Brightness & Color: Measured in nits, brightness determines how well you see the screen in various lighting conditions. Generally, 300 nits is acceptable, 400 nits is good, and anything above 500 nits is excellent. Additionally, you might see references to color gamuts (sRGB, DCI-P3, etc.). A higher percentage coverage translates to richer and more accurate colors.

4 – Stylus Compatibility: If you have artistic aspirations or crave a note-taking experience like the Apple Pencil offers, ensure the tablet supports an active stylus. As a side note, there are tablets that includes a stylus, and then there are those you buy separately.

5 Best iPad Pro Alternatives to Buy

Now that you have a better idea of how to choose a tablet, Let’s look at the best iPad Pro alternatives you can buy right now.

Asus Zenbook 14x Flip

DISPLAY: 14-inches OLED | CPU: Intel Core i7 | MEMORY: 16GB RAM | STORAGE: 512GB/1TB SSD | WEIGHT: 1.5kg

Technically a 2-in-1 laptop, the ASUS Zenbook Flip is so lightweight and portable that it deserves a mention as an iPad contender. The ingenious hinge design allows the keyboard to flip completely back, transforming it into a tablet for tasks similar to an iPad. It even boasts a convenient “tent mode” perfect for video streaming.

Our review highlighted several impressive features. The QHD OLED touchscreen delivers stunning visuals with vibrant colors and deep blacks, while the 90Hz refresh rate ensures a smooth experience for drawing or creative work.

Now, a couple of things to consider: At 1.5kg, the Zenbook Flip isn’t the most featherweight option for carrying around. Additionally, the lack of a dedicated power button in tablet mode might be a minor inconvenience. For a deeper dive into this unique device, check out our full ASUS Zenbook 14x Flip review.

OnePlus Pad

DISPLAY: 11.6-inches LCD IPS | CPU: MediaTek Dimensity | MEMORY: 8GB/12GB RAM | STORAGE: 128GB/256GB SSD | WEIGHT: 552g

The OnePlus Pad boasts impressive features like a bright display, fast charging, and loud speakers. While the software is up-to-date and it integrates well with other OnePlus devices, the processing power lags behind top-of-the-line phones. For everyday use and entertainment, it excels, but demanding tasks might introduce some frustrating lag.

The OnePlus Pad offers great value, especially considering the limited competition in the Android tablet market. However, if raw performance is your top priority, you might want to look elsewhere.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra

DISPLAY: 14.6-inches AMOLED | CPU: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 | MEMORY: 12GB/16GB RAM | STORAGE: 256GB/512GB/1TB SSD | WEIGHT: 732g

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra boasts a massive 14.6-inch display, even surpassing the largest iPad Pro. Despite its size, it remains surprisingly slim and portable. It’s a powerful tablet with great performance, making it a strong contender for work tasks. The AMOLED display delivers incredibly rich visuals, perfect for movie marathons or creating digital art.

A major perk? The S Pen stylus comes included! Unlike the iPad Pro or Surface Pro, you won’t need to shell out extra for a separate pen. While the S Pen offers a smooth writing experience, it might not quite match the seamless integration of the Apple Pencil with the iPad Pro.

The Achilles’ heel? The Android operating system. While the Play Store offers a vast app selection, some creative professionals might miss out on specific iOS apps like Adobe’s suite. The size also comes with a trade-off – it’s a sizable tablet, requiring a bigger bag for carrying it around. However, the extra screen real estate can be a major advantage for multitasking.

Microsoft Surface Go 3

DISPLAY: 10.5-inches | CPU: Intel Core i3 | MEMORY: 8GB RAM | STORAGE: 64GB SSD | WEIGHT: 544g

On a tight budget? Look no further than the Microsoft Surface Go 3, the most affordable option in their lineup. We were impressed by the 10.5-inch display’s brightness for its category, and the overall size struck a great balance – portable enough for a tote bag but solid enough to feel well-made.

While the performance isn’t top-of-the-line (think iPad entry-level, not Air or Pro), it handles everyday tasks like browsing, email, and media consumption just fine. Keep in mind, similar to the Surface Pro, the Surface Pen and Type Cover keyboard are additional purchases. To truly unlock the Go 3’s potential, we recommend getting both accessories.

Microsoft Surface Pro 9

DISPLAY: 13-inches PixelSense | CPU: Intel Core i5 | MEMORY: 16GB | STORAGE: 256GB/1TB SSD | WEIGHT: 879g

For those seeking a Windows alternative to the iPad Pro, look no further than the Microsoft Surface Pro 9, especially the Intel i7 version (skip the SQ3 5G unless you absolutely need that connectivity). Our review highlights the Surface Pro 9’s premium, Apple-esque build quality, with a sturdy and well-designed kickstand that rivals the iPad Pro for drawing tasks.

The gamechanger? Windows 11. This OS allows you to run full-fledged desktop software, giving the Surface Pro 9 a significant edge in functionality. The power to back it up is there too. Our tests showed the i7 model with 16GB RAM handled most tasks with ease, including multitasking with multiple programs. While complex 4K video editing in Davinci Pro caused some stuttering (it’s a tablet, after all, with integrated graphics!), the performance is impressive.

The vibrant PixelSense display is a joy for watching movies and photo editing, and the Surface Slim Pen (sold separately) offers a smooth sketching experience. The 10MP camera even boasts a “Center Stage” like feature, keeping you in frame during video calls. And, the optional Type Cover keyboard transforms the Surface Pro 9 into a compact and powerful laptop replacement. Just be aware, like the pen, the keyboard is an additional purchase.

Verdict

So, there you have it! Our exploration of our top-notch best iPad Pro alternatives. Whether you prioritize affordability, crave a powerhouse processor for demanding tasks, or require a specific operating system, there’s a perfect tablet out there waiting to be discovered.

Ready to find your ideal iPad Pro alternative? Consider the factors most important to you – budget, desired features, and intended use. Research the options we’ve outlined, and don’t hesitate to explore further based on your specific needs. With a little exploration, you’ll be well on your way to finding the perfect tablet companion.

The Simple Guide to Improve Laptop Battery Life

Posted on July 24, 2024 by LGMadyibi

Who doesn’t love squeezing the most juice out of their laptop battery? The good news is, the Windows OS is already on your side! It boasts a range of built-in settings specifically designed to optimize your laptop’s battery performance. Even if you own one of the best laptops for battery life, there’s always room for improvement. The best part? Most of these tweaks don’t require any additional software – they’re completely free and easy to implement! Keep reading to discover hidden gems within Windows to improve laptop battery life.

Use Windows Tools

Windows laptops might be the battery champ, but its secret weapons are hidden. Many built-in tools designed to extend your laptop’s life are switched off by default. Let’s switch them on to improve laptop’s battery life.

1 – Activate Battery Saver: This built-in power saver is your first line of defense. It offers a range of options like dimming your screen or limiting notifications when unplugged, all to conserve battery life.

2 – Power Down, Power Up Efficiently: Modern laptops are powerhouses, so consider switching to the “Best power efficiency overall” mode. Reserve the high-performance modes for those moments when you truly need the extra muscle.

3 – Hibernation, Your Battery’s Best Friend: For extended breaks, take advantage of Hibernation mode. This puts your laptop in a deep sleep, preserving battery life significantly compared to regular sleep mode.

4 – Airplane Mode: For those times when sacrificing internet connectivity isn’t a dealbreaker, enabling Airplane mode completely cuts off wireless connections, maximizing battery savings. However, this might not be ideal for everyone in our internet-dependent world.

By implementing these simple tweaks, you can unlock the full battery-saving potential of Windows 11 and keep your laptop humming for longer!

Laptops with Long Battery Life

Monitor Battery Health

Unlike some laptops, Windows 11 doesn’t offer a readily available battery health indicator. While some manufacturers have their own monitoring apps, Windows itself holds a valuable secret weapon: a comprehensive battery report.

Unlocking the Battery Report:

1 – Open Command Prompt (search for it in the Start Menu).

2 – Type powercfg /batteryreport and press Enter.

This will generate an HTML file containing a wealth of information about your battery, including estimated remaining life and how you’re using battery power. While accessing it might not be the most intuitive process, this report is a goldmine for understanding your battery’s health and maximizing its lifespan.

Disable Power Hungry Apps

Ever feel like your laptop takes ages to boot up, or its battery drains faster than usual? Annoying startup apps might be the culprit! Many programs sneak themselves onto your startup list during installation, automatically launching when you turn on your laptop. While this might seem convenient on a desktop PC, it’s a battery drain monster on laptops. Here’s the fix to improve laptop battery life:

1 – Head to the Startup Apps menu (search for it in the Start Menu).

2 – Take a deep breath and disable everything you see on the list.

3 – Reboot your laptop.

Don’t worry, this isn’t permanent! Simply re-enable any programs you genuinely need on startup. The rest can stay disabled, saving you precious boot time and improve laptop’s battery life. By following this strategy, you can reclaim control over your startup process and keep your laptop running smoothly and efficiently.

Use Laptop Energy Recommendations

Windows has a hidden gem waiting to boost your battery life: the Energy recommendations feature! This handy tool, located in Settings > System > Power & battery, analyzes your system and suggests a range of tweaks to maximize your laptop’s unplugged life.

From simple adjustments like switching to a power-saving mode to more unexpected tips like disabling USB power when your screen is off, Energy recommendations offer a comprehensive approach to battery optimization.

Even if you’ve already made some battery-saving changes, it’s worth checking this list. You might discover hidden settings you haven’t considered that can squeeze even more juice out of your laptop’s battery.

Androids’ Smartphones with Long Battery Life

Monitor Battery Charge Cycles

All laptop batteries have a limited lifespan. Just like a car engine, they can only go through so many recharge cycles before their capacity starts to decline. For lithium-ion batteries, like the one in your Windows laptop, that’s typically around 500 cycles. After reaching this point, the battery might only hold 80% of its original charge.

Now, this 500 cycles is a conservative estimate – smartphone batteries are often rated for around 800 cycles. The key thing to remember is that a cycle doesn’t necessarily mean draining the entire battery from 100% to 0%. Plugging in throughout the day still counts towards a cycle, but it doesn’t deplete it as quickly as a full discharge.

The good news is, small reductions in battery life happen gradually. However, there are ways to maximize your battery’s health and lifespan. Keep it charged between 20% and 80%. Lithium-ion batteries are happiest in this sweet spot. If your laptop has software that lets you limit the maximum charge to 80%, enable it! This helps maintain battery health over time.

By following these simple tips, you can improve laptop battery life extending it and keeping it running stronger for longer.

Avoid High Temperature Areas

Heat is the kryptonite of laptop batteries! While lithium-ion batteries are content at room temperature, they become grumpy when exposed to direct sunlight, scorching environments, or excessive humidity.

Keeping Your Battery Cool, here’s how:

1 – Fend Off the Extremes: Shield your laptop from the sun’s wrath and avoid using it in excessively hot or humid places.

2 – Clear Those Airways: Dust and debris can clog air vents, hindering airflow and causing overheating. Keep those vents clean for optimal ventilation.

3 – Cool It Down: If you can’t control the ambient temperature, consider using a cooling pad with a fan. This can lower the battery’s operating temperature by a few degrees, keeping it happy and healthy.

4 – Ditch the Lap Myth: Despite the name, laptops aren’t designed for laps! The soft materials trap heat, blocking airflow. Use a sturdy surface like a table or tray for better cooling.

By following these simple tips, you can keep your laptop battery functioning optimally and extend its lifespan. Remember, a cool battery is a happy battery!

In Closing

Even the endurance champions of laptops, like those powered by Snapdragon X Elite processors, can benefit from a few tweaks to squeeze out even more juice. Implementing these tips will help you improve laptop battery life, allowing you to work unplugged for longer.

These suggestions are geared towards maximizing battery health and performance on a functional battery. However, if your laptop is experiencing significant battery drain or doesn’t hold a charge, it might require a replacement or further troubleshooting.

New Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6: Should You Upgrade?

Posted on July 17, 2024 by LGMadyibi

The highly anticipated Galaxy Z Fold 6 unfolds to reveal a powerhouse phone with a tablet-sized display, blurring the lines between smartphone and productivity machine. Here’s a closer look at what the Z Fold 6 offers, along with reasons why it might be the perfect fit for you, or why you might want to wait for the next iteration.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6

PRE-ORDER NOW!

SPECS

Main Display: 7.6-inch, QXGA+, Dynamic AMOLED 2X, 120Hz (2160 x 1856) | Cover Display: 6.3-inch, Dynamic AMOLED 2X (968 x 2376) | Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (4nm) | Memory: 12 GB RAM | Storage: 256 GB/512 GB/1 TB | Camera (Rear): 50 MP (wide); 12 MP (telephoto) Optical Zoom 3x, Optical quality Zoom 2x (Enabled by Adaptive Pixel sensor), Digital Zoom up to 30x; 10 MP (ultra-wide) | Camera (Cover): 10 MP (wide) | Battery: 4400 mAh

Galaxy Z Fold 6: Overview

The Z Fold 6 unfolds to boast a rumored 7.6-inch main display, perfect for immersive gaming, multitasking, and consuming media. When folded, a sizable 6.3-inch cover display keeps you connected without needing to unfurl the phone. Under the hood, the Z Fold 6 is expected to be equipped with the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, promising smooth performance, efficient multitasking, and exceptional graphics rendering. The memory will be stuck at 12 GB of RAM with internal storage ranging from 256 GB to 1 TB.

Reasons to Buy the Galaxy Z Fold 6

1 – Cutting-Edge Foldable Design

Experience the future of smartphones with a device that transforms from a compact phone to a near-tablet-sized display. With a stronger durable hinge, slimmer, tougher aluminum chassis, and lighter than its predecessor, it’ll be easier to hold and a tough nut to crack. With the rumored IP48 water resistance rating, the Z Fold 6 design is built to withstand all elements, especially the water, scratch and dust.

2 – Wider display

While the Galaxy Z Fold 6 might look almost identical to its predecessor at first sight, Samsung has made a subtle but key size adjustment. The phone is slightly shorter and a tad wider. This seemingly minor change translates to a bigger cover display by 0.1 inches. This might seem insignificant, but it makes a big difference in usability – the folded phone feels much more comfortable to hold and navigate with one hand.

3 – Better Performance

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 gets the newest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, that promises to handle even the most demanding tasks with ease. With its power and energy-saving efficiency, it will contribute to the overall phone’s long battery life.

4 – Improved Camera System

The Z Fold 6 will capture stunning photos and videos with a minor upgrade to the camera system. The only change will be the added 12 MP ultrawide camera sensor which will take better low-light images and video. With the added AI features, Samsung believes it will enhances the camera system, letting you unleash your creativity on the go.

5 – Software & Galaxy AI Features

The Z Fold 6 isn’t just about the hardware; it boasts some clever AI tricks thanks to Samsung’s Galaxy AI suite. Out of the box, you’ll get the latest Android 14 with One UI 6.1.1, offering features like customizable lock screens and AI-powered message replies. But the real star is the Galaxy AI integration, optimized for the foldable form factor. Imagine searching the web directly on the Z Fold 6’s large display with Circle to Search. Editing photos becomes more precise with Smart Select, an AI tool for object selection and overlay. Feeling artistic? The new Sketch to Image tool lets you use the S Pen to turn your doodles into edits – want sunglasses on that dog in your photo? No problem!

Need to take notes? A new transcription feature in the Note app summarizes your scribbles for easy reference. Struggling with writer’s block? The Samsung Keyboard’s Composer feature generates text based on keywords, perfect for emails, social media, or comments. Perhaps the most impressive AI feature is the enhanced Interpreter app. It utilizes both screens on the Z Fold 6 for conversation mode, displaying translations on both the main and cover displays. This fosters smoother communication between people speaking different languages. Bonus? Live translation even works within other apps!

6 – Little Bigger Battery

Don’t hold your breath for a massive battery upgrade. The Z Fold 6 gets a modest 400mAh bump, bringing it to 4,400mAh compared to its predecessor. This might seem like a small change, but it’s important to consider the Fold 6’s more powerful processor and AI features that will likely consume more energy. Essentially, the extra 400mAh could be the difference between a phone lasting a full day or dying on your commute home.

The downside is the wired charging speed, which remains at a rather slow 35 watts. But on the bright side, the phone can apparently reach 50% charge in about 30 minutes, which is decent and might help preserve the battery’s lifespan in the long run.

Reasons Not to Buy

1 – Expensive Price Tag

Foldable phones still command a premium price, and the Z Fold 6 is likely to be no exception. Consider your budget and whether the foldable features justify the cost compared to a traditional high-end phone.

2 – Durability Issues

While Samsung has improved the Z Fold’s durability, foldable phones are still a relatively new technology. There might be some lingering concerns about potential hinge issues or screen damage.

Should You Pre-order The Galaxy Z Fold 6?

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is a compelling proposition for those seeking a cutting-edge phone with a unique form factor. The improved design, powerful specs and performance, the minor improved camera and battery, and the Galaxy AI features, make it a productivity and entertainment powerhouse. However, the high price might make one reconsider. Ultimately, the decision depends on your priorities and budget. If I was you, I would wait for reviews to make a better decision on getting the Z Fold 6. If you have the older Z Fold 5, don’t rush into upgrading as yet.

If you’re a tech enthusiast who craves the latest and greatest, and prioritize a large screen for work or play, the Z Fold 6 might be the perfect choice. Click HERE to pre-order the new Galaxy smartphone. But if you’re on a tight budget or prefer a more traditional phone design, there are other foldable smartphone options to consider. Stay tuned for more info as the release date is near. Be sure to check out my review of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 smartphone in the future. In the meantime, let us know in the comments below what excites you most about the Z Fold 6, or if there are any features you’d like to see in future foldable phones 😀

While the rumored IP48 rating is a plus, foldable phones are still a relatively new technology, and some users might be wary of potential hinge issues or screen damage.

5 – Bigger Battery

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is rumored to come with a larger 4,000mAh battery, a significant upgrade from its predecessor.

6 – AI Features

One such feature is the optimized Chat Assist on the cover screen. This allows you to quickly reply to texts using Suggested Replies without even unfolding the phone. Feeling multilingual? Interpreter Mode utilizes both screens for real-time conversations with translation displayed on each one.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 also gets creative with its AI. The Gallery app’s Photo Assist lets you transform photos into sketches or cartoons, while Photo Ambient adjusts your wallpaper based on weather and time. While some features might be more practical than others, it’s clear Samsung is going all-in on AI, and the Z Flip 6 reaps the benefits.

7 – Software Support

Remember the extended software support Samsung introduced with the Galaxy S24? Good news! That same commitment applies to the Z Flip 6. This translates to several years of software and security updates. In theory, you could be rocking a practically new-feeling Galaxy Z Flip 6 well into the next decade!

Reasons Not To Buy

1 – More Expensive

Foldable phones are still a premium technology, and the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is likely to carry a hefty price tag. Consider your budget and whether the foldable features justify the cost compared to a traditional high-end phone.

2 – Limited App Optimization

Some apps might not be fully optimized for the foldable format, potentially leading to a less than ideal user experience.

3 – Cover Screen Size

The Z Flip 6 sticks with the same 3.4-inch cover screen, limiting its ability to run full apps like its competitor, the Motorola Razr Plus, that comes with a 3.9-inch cover screen. While the Z Flip 6 does utilize Galaxy AI features on the cover screen, for a more comprehensive experience, the Motorola Razr Plus might be a better choice.

4 – Slow Charging

The charging speed is a concern with the Galaxy Z Flip 6. As much as it’s an expensive smartphone, the premium features should reflect as such. Sadly, the battery will only support up to 25W charging speeds which is slower compared to other foldable smartphones.

Is The New Flip Worth it

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 promises a compelling package – a stylish foldable design, powerful performance, and an upgraded camera system. However, the price tag and lingering durability concerns might give some potential buyers pause.

Ultimately, the decision depends on your priorities. If you crave a cutting-edge phone with a unique form factor and prioritize portability, the Z Flip 6 might be the perfect match. But if budget is a major concern, or you prefer a more traditional phone design, other high-end options might be a better fit.

Posted on July 11, 2024 by LGMadyibi

Let’s face it, the business world can be glamorous…in theory. Think corner offices with breathtaking views and personal assistants fetching you exotic lattes. But for most of us, reality involves fluorescent lights, endless spreadsheets, and the constant struggle between looking professional and not breaking the bank on your work computer. That’s why you need a business laptop tool that will help you get throw the day. If it’s okay with you, here are some of the best affordable business laptops that will most definitely get you want you need in the office, and more if you’re up for it.

Why Affordable Business Laptops

These laptops are your knight in shining (plastic) armor, offering the power and features you need to slay dragons (metaphorical, it’s spreadsheets and reports, of course) without maxing out your credit card. Here’s why these unsung heroes might be the perfect fit to meet your business needs:

1 – Smarter Spending

Let’s be honest, your company’s IT department might not appreciate if you waltz in with a laptop that costs more than their entire coffee budget. Affordable business laptops allow you to get the job done efficiently without raising eyebrows (or concerns about your expense reports). And let’s not forget, you’ll end up saving so much money getting a budget laptop to help you with your business.

2 – Focus on Function

You don’t need a flashy touchscreen or a light-up keyboard to write killer reports or dominate conference calls. Affordable laptops prioritize the essentials – solid processing power, a comfortable keyboard, and a decent battery life – all at a price that won’t make you want to hide under your desk.

3 – Durability on a Budget

Business laptops take a beating. Coffee spills, commutes in overflowing backpacks – these affordable warriors are built to withstand the daily grind without requiring a babysitter (or a padded carrying case…maybe).

Best Affordable Business Laptops for 2024

Now that you’re convinced that affordable business laptops are the secret weapon of the savvy professional, let’s dive into our top picks for 2024!

Acer Aspire 3

This budget-friendly option, priced under $500/£500, tackles everyday tasks with ease.

It also comes with a good set of inputs ports namely HDMI, Ethernet, etc. Overall, the Acer Aspire 3 isn’t just functional – it’s functional for your wallet, making it the perfect choice as one of the best affordable business laptop for most budget-conscious shoppers.

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i 14 (2023)

Microsoft Surface Laptop Go 3

Every cent counts when buying a budget laptop, even more so than with pricier options. Microsoft’s decision to hike the starting price of the Surface Laptop Go 3 by $200 and offer minimal upgrades throws the whole value proposition into question.

Here, you can easily find laptops with similar build quality, bigger and sharper displays, and even more features for the same price, making the Surface Laptop Go 3 a less attractive option.
