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.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

By Administrator
What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.
