By Administrator
The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

Speed Test: Galaxy Note 8 vs. iPhone 8 Plus

By Administrator

This year, like every previous year, Apple and Samsung introduced their new flagship phones: the Note 8 and iPhone 8 (Plus). Since these are two rival phones this year, various comparisons follow on blogs, and Youtube channels, forums… But, the most important thing for the end-user is the speed of work. For these purposes, PhoneBuff conducts speed tests in real conditions, because specifications on paper are one thing, and work in practice is another. So they did a speed test for these two phones.

Benchmark tests are a good indicator of the performance of the device, but sometimes a higher number does not mean faster work on the phone in everyday situations. The results of this type of test are the most accurate because it tests the operation of the phone in real conditions, as would the average user.

PhoneBuff speed test consists of two phases:

  1. Opening applications in a row for the first time
  2. Open the same applications from the cache (RAM)

In this way, we can see how each phone behaves in everyday work, how quickly it opens applications for the first time, and how quickly it can open the next time. In this case, we can conclude that the first round was uncertain until the very end, but in the second round, Note 8 showed significantly better results.

The results:

  1. First round: iPhone - 1:27, Note 8 - 1:30
  2. Second round: iPhone - 2:07, Note 8 - 2:01

Keep in mind that Apple makes both the iPhone and iOS systems for it, while the Galaxy Note is made by one company and the Android system by another. Nevertheless, the Note 8 wins.

New Google mobile internet saving application - Datally

By Administrator
I wrote an article on how to save internet traffic on an Android device and I suggested the Onavo Extend and Opera Max apps because they were the most popular back then. Meanwhile, Opera Max has been discontinued and Onavo has been completely redesigned and is now a VPN application with the option to save internet traffic. Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link . Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called " Datally ".

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

By Administrator
IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.
