CHROMECAST WITH GOOGLE TV REVIEW:SABRINA.

 As rumours have it, Google is said to be working on a new dongle nicknamed "Sabrina" which will require you to plug it into the HDMI port on your TV to bring the android experience in the comfort of your living room as seen in a number of TVs like TCL, Sony and recently joined Hisence.

The dongle is expected to come with a Bluetooth remote control equipped with a microphone and a dedicated Google Assistant button to control content, volume and many more with your voice. This comes in hand after the chromecast forced its users for years to use their smartphones as a remote control to pause or skip their shows. To my opinion this was tedious.

Apart from just controlling the dongle, the remote will have the capability of controlling other Assistant-compatible devices like any nearby smart lighting or a central heating system like Google-owned Nest. The remote can also be used to control your TV as a universal remote. Isn't this cool?

Based on leaks posted online, "Sabrina" is likely to cost way lesser than any other Chromecasts, and this means it's going to be worthy to put hands on one since it will cost you as little as $49.99.

SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FOLD 2 5G: IMPRESSION( DISPLAYS AND HINGES)

 

After taking into considerations the updates requested by the users of the first Galaxy Fold, the giant phone manufacturer has once again revealed its successor to the Fold which will now be referred to as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 and it will still go to cost you around $2000.

One of the distinct improvements evident in the new Galaxy Z Fold 2 is its displays.  We see that Samsung has gone ahead to increase the size of the front screen from 4.6-inches to 6.2-inches which is a good initiative to compete with other smartphone rivals. Furthermore, they went ahead and increased the size of the main display to about 7.6-inches which in turns resulted in the decrease of the bezels on the inside by 27%.

Another fascinating improvement is the material used to make the main screen. Samsung made another huge improvement by ditching the plastic material, which was previously used in the making of the first Fold phone and they have now settled for its own Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG) which is meant to improve the durability of the device.

Finally, another improvement that Samsung took into consideration is the hinges. Even though the Z Fold 2’s hideaway hinge still uses the core technology from the Galaxy Z Flip, this hinge will allow the device to stay open using Flex mode, at multiple angles as opposed to the previous Fold which only allowed one to either open it fully or just closed it.

This improvement will enable one to prop up the device and use the half of the screen to do one task and another one to do another task simultaneously. More so, there is an introduction of a new “sweeper” mechanism found inside the hinge that can be used to clean dirt that might get inside the hinge to prevent any kind of damage and increase on durability.

 Here are the complete specs of the GALAXY Z FOLD 2:
