is here to help.The company published a batch of data Tuesday that details when you may want to rush to the stores or head for a coffee break in order to get a breather. The report says that the peak shopping times on Black Friday aren’t during the morning rush, but actually between 2 4 p.m. The data analyzes five types of retail outlets: electronics stores, cellphone stores, discount outlets, department stores, shopping malls....

Back at I/ O, Google had announced a new re-design for the web version of the Play Store, keeping in line with the re-designed Android app. Today, the big-G has started rolling out the re-designed web Play Store to users over the world. The re-designed Play Store definitely looks stunning, and follows a design language that is similar to the one used in the Android app. It also places equal emphasis on other Play services like Play Movies and Books, which makes sense, considering the Google team has expanded these services to regions other than the USA in the last 1 year....

Employee expectations have shifted significantly in recent years, with the ability to work flexibly becoming a top priority. In fact, a survey of more than 6,100 professionals suggests employees would choose freedom and flexibility over progressing their career within their company, with 71% of respondents saying they would pass up a promotion in return for being able to work from anywhere, at any time. The survey was conducted by IT company Ivanti, which canvassed 4,510 office workers and 1,609 IT professionals in the US, UK, France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Sweden and Australia to understand attitudes toward remote work, points of disagreements among demographics, and the varying experiences of remote working so far....

In addition to serving to unlock the device, this fingerprint scanner has many more utilities, like protecting WhatsApp chats, making mobile payments, and much more. How To Remotely Unlock Your Windows PC Via Fingerprint Scanner On Android Although not all smartphones come with a fingerprint sensor, it is increasingly common to find mid-range and even entry-level models that incorporate them. In addition to serving to unlock the device, this fingerprint scanner has many more utilities, like protecting WhatsApp chats and making mobile payments by keeping specific photos safe....

The company updated its blog post Tuesday regarding the RNB6 it showed off at CES. It now says that instead of direct sales you’ll be able to get the system from select manufacturers who put it in their cars. “As of today there is no plan to sell RNB6 in aftermarket channels as RNB6 embedded technologies require deep integration with car series manufacturers,” the post said. rrot didn’t specify which manufactures would include its system....

Rumors about a jumbo Samsung tablet have been floating around the web since June. Today, however, we finally got some “detailed” information thanks to a guy that somehow attended a secret Samsung briefing in Korea. He says Samsung’s 12.2 inch tablet is called the Galaxy Note Pro. Its display will put out 2560 x 1600 pixels. Do the math, and that comes out to a little less than 250 pixels per inch....

For as long as I can remember, Samsung has been demoing bendable OLED screens at various tradeshows. A video my old colleagues from IntoMobile uploaded in January 2011 (see below) is proof of that. Now the thing is, making a one off panel to parade around media outlets to demonstrate your superior technical prowess is easy. Setting up the factories that can mass produce said advanced technology is another thing altogether....

Over the last few years, Samsung has bundled variants of its Galaxy Buds with flagship smartphone purchases, either for free or at a slight premium. It offered a wide variety of features with its Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Buds2, and Galaxy Buds Live. Now Buds Live and Buds2 are being updated with a Galaxy Buds Pro feature called 360 Audio. The Galaxy Buds2 was updated to the latest software build earlier this week....

After being leaked in numerous photos, Samsung today officially unveiled the Galaxy C5 in China. The metal clad mid-range smartphone from the company shares some design cues from HTC’s iconic One series. Despite its premium design, the Galaxy C5 is an out and out mid-range handset. Packing in a Snapdragon 617 chipset, a 5.2-inch Full HD AMOLED display, 4GB RAM, and 32GB of storage space, the handset is not going to win any benchmark wars....

Earlier this week, Samsung launched the Galaxy M10 and M20 smartphones in India. The Galaxy M20 takes a jab at some heavyweights like the Redmi Note 6 Pro, Honor 8X, Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2, and others. Unlike previous budget offerings from Samsung, the Galaxy M20 is a genuinely attractive smartphone in the sub-15k segment. Q) What are the full specifications of the Galaxy M20? A) The full specs of the Galaxy M20 are as follows:...

A good display and somewhat routine design And in best Samsung tradition, the Galaxy M20 leads with its display. Those expecting an AMOLED one will be disappointed but that cannot detract from the fact that the 6.3-inch display on the M20 is a very good one. We would have liked better sunlight visibility but considering its price point, the display delivers very good colors (if slightly on the oversaturated side) and will not disappoint anyone looking to view videos and read the text....

Looks like…well, a slightly bigger S20 The S20+ is pretty much a slightly larger version of the, well, Galaxy S20. And Samsung’s latest Galaxy S flagships are definitely very good looking, although they do not stand out from their other siblings as prominently as the S10 and S9 series had, thanks mainly to that rectangular camera unit at the back which is becoming a bit of a Samsung design signature....

The South Korean giant Samsung found a use for its old Galaxy S5 (and no, it does not matter if it’s shredded). The Korean company has shown how you can gather a few dozen of the old smartphone from its catalog to install a compilation of the company’s specialized operating system (which is still available) to create a common device to mine Bitcoin. The main advantage of this device is that it is able to extract with a greater energy efficiency than a standard desktop, so mining Bitcoin in this way ends up being, in the long run, much more profitable than the traditional method....

After a bit of a teasing, OnePlus unveiled the OnePlus 5T at an event in New York. The latest flagship handset from the company features an 18:9 aspect ratio display at the front and an improved dual-camera setup at the rear for better low-light images. With the OnePlus 5 already being out of stock in most markets, many consumers looking for a sub-$500 flagship phone are eagerly waiting for the 5T to on sale in their country....

However, before jumping to conclusions here, you should know that OnePlus is not the only manufacturer that does this. In fact, nearly every Android phone collects such information and shares it with the respective company for various purposes. Google itself has been known to record most of the device-specific identifier there is. Of course, apart from this, the search engine juggernaut stores every bit of browsing detail you provide them for advertising and recommendations....

The “flagship killer” OnePlus One has been delayed, and delayed, and delayed and now, it has been further delayed. The company managed to keep its promise of a “storm of invites” by giving away 2500 invites last month, but has since then failed to ship the devices to the winners. In a bid to avoid misunderstanding and further negative press coverage, a member of OnePlus has explained the reason behind the delay on their forums....

If you are trying to get that raise, think again. A Gartner study shows that 51% of organizations plan to raise wages only for top performers in the face of inflation. SEE: Inflation is about to change grocery shopping for good The study polled 130 CEOs and CFOs, asking them how their organization plans to adjust compensation for salaried employees to match inflation. The business leaders had to choose between all employees or top performing employees; they also had to choose between selected – markets where inflation was the most severe – or all markets....

Make periodic checks of workstations/POS systems. To save time, employees often use Post-It notes with passwords on them. Having a written password is strongly discouraged; however, if passwords are written down they should be hidden inside a locked drawer. Passwords that are shared amongst two or more people should be rotated regularly. Also, physically inspect the machine to make sure any mag stripe readers, key loggers, or any other hacking tool has not been secretly attached....

But, oh no, your music is all tied to iTunes and it won’t play nice with Android. Who wants to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars getting all that music back? It’s even worse since you’ve already paid for it. Take heart, there is a way to play your iTunes music on your Android device. Just follow a few simple steps and you’ll be on a midnight train going anywhere....
