Samsung is going to come out with a Galaxy S4 this year that’s powered by Qualcomm’s newest chip, the Snapdragon 800. Right now there aren’t any Snapdragon 800 phones out on the market, but that’s definitely going to change by the time Q4 rolls around. Rumor has it the Note III will use the Snapdragon 800, HTC’s One Max will use it, and so will LG’s Optimus G2. But enough about that, let’s focus on the SHV-E330S....

What is Business Email Compromise (BEC)? Unlike ordinary phishing emails, BEC is a form of fraud using clever and time-tested methods of deception. Scammers often scour the Internet for information such as coworker names and company structure, travel information (for example, a CEO speaking at a conference) or expansion plans. They’ll use this information to make a message or request seem more legitimate. For example, “the boss” may message through Facebook saying he’s out of town, has been robbed and needs money wired to him now....

Python is one of the world’s most popular programming languages, loved for its breadth of packages or add-on libraries that make it useful for data science. Developers need to update these packages frequently and attackers have used this behavior to backdoor their Windows, Linux and Apple machines through bogus packages that are similarly named to legitimate ones, otherwise known as software supply chain attacks. PyPI, which is managed by the Python Software Foundation (PSF), is the main repository where Python developers can get third-party developed open-source packages for their projects....

Earlier this week, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 went up for sale in the United States and various other parts of the world. With the sales of the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge losing momentum and the Korean giant losing market share over the last few quarters, a lot depends on the Galaxy Note 5 for Samsung. To counter the impending launch of the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus and to prevent it from cannibalising the sales of the Note series, Samsung decided to unveil the Galaxy Note 5 a month earlier than its usual launch time frame....

Despite the fact that the OnePlus One has only been available through an invite system so far, and one that hasn’t gone over so well since its debut, and a pre-order system isn’t set to launch until late October, a recent AMA (Ask Me Anything) on reddit from a pair of OnePlus staffers has already set sights on what’s next in 2015. According to the AMA, which was manned by David and Carl of OnePlus, what’s next for OnePlus could be coming in about a year’s time, or just under that....

The Oppo R17 features the company’s new so-called “Teardrop design” which translates to a narrower notch at the top of the screen, similar to what we’ve seen on the Essential Phone. In addition, the phone will be available in two iridescent color options including Twilight Blue and Starry Purple. I’m sure we all know where’s that coming from. In spite of the lack of “Pro” here, the Oppo R17 is no slouch as far as the hardware is concerned....
