HOW TO INCREASE YOUR ANDROID PHONES BATTERY BY 40%



Everyone owns a smartphone nowadays and the chances are everyone would be wondering how to get more battery life from smartphones. Smartphones have conquer computers nowadays and are capable of doing what computers can do but the only area where they lack is their battery life.  Android is one of the most popular operating system and has more than 60% of the smartphone market. We all know what android operating system is capable off and how optimised it is for our devices. But still most of the smartphones only last a day. I remember my school days when I used to had pentium3 on my Computer  and now my smartphone has eight cores in it. The world has advanced so much.  I remember my Nokia phone which used to last 3 days on a single charge and now my phone only last a day.
There are plenty of apps in the market which says that they extendedProperty battery of phones but truly speaking none of them works.
I have tried so many apps and so many settings and tweaking but it didn't helped.
But there are some battery savers app which did worked for me actually. I am going to share my top recommended battery savers app.

1. Juice defendor
Am pretty sure you must have heard of juice defendor app which is one of the best app in the market. What if I tell you that it is and it's not.
If you are using the trial free version of this app , then it's not worth it and is not saving any juice for your smartphone. Trial version only disables mobile data when not in use which you can do manually aswell. I would recommend you to buy the paid supreme version which gives you tonnes of features  to play with
Juice defendor paid version actually worked and increases you battery life by 40%. I am personally using it and my galaxy s4 gives me more than 2 days of battery life with juice defendor enabled. I actually have taken a screen shot of my phone as a proof at the end of this article.

2 . longevity battery saver.
This one comes from trend micro and is a free app and  it saves battery upto 25%.
I really don't know what it does but I have personally tested it and it does gives you phone 25% more juice. My s4 ran for 1 day 15hrs with this one and most of the time  I was on wireless connection and  did watched some videos on YouTube.
I you don't want to but juice defendor paid app then I would recommend you to give longevity a try.

This is the screen shot of my galaxy s4 using juice defendor.


Please share your views which app are you  using in the comments section below and don't forget to like us on facebook.

TOP 5 LAUNCHERS FOR ANDROID PHONES


            TOP 5 LAUNCHERS FOR YOUR ANDROID PHONE

 We all know android smartphones comes with stock launchers which lacks customisation and other features  like samsung comes with touch wiz and htc comes with sense launcher.  There is no problem with these launchers but they lack customisation and  only displays one app drawer. So to help android lovers , android app developers have made some this party applications which works as launcher.
Today we are going to discuss some of the best app launchers in the play market.

1.APEX LAUNCHERS
This launcher provides high level of customisation and gives lots of features to play this. I own a galaxy s4 and personally uses apex launcher to get the most out of my galaxy s4.  Apex launcher provides upto 9 homescreen at the same time and with tonnes of theme and icon pack available,  this launcher rocks. I am going to show you how I made my GALAXY S4 INTO SONY XPERIA Z Check my screen shots . You can download APEX from the play market for free.

2 . NOVA LAUNCHERS
This one is one of the most used launcher for android phones and provides high level of customisation and themes. I find apex and nova similar to each other with same kind of settings and features. One of the main feature of nova launcher is  elastic scrolling. It makes the touch of your android drawer very fast , it is very much optimised. Like I said it's identical to apex,  provides upto 9 homescreen with ability to download icon packs from . Third parties.
This one can be downloaded free from play market but also comes witha a paid  version aswell. But I recommend to try free version first.

3 . BUZZ LAUNCHERS
buzz launcher is different from the above two launchers in style and looks. This launcher is new in the market and comes with 80000 plus homescreen to choose from . The most important feature of this launcher is that it let's you to create your own home screen and share homescreen layout with others . It's highly customised and  improved. It's available for android 4.0 and above and it also let's you choose different wallpapers for different home screens. I am going to show you one of my galaxy s4 screen shot how this buzz launcher looks.

4 . GO EX LAUNCHER
this one is one of the oldest and the most stable launcher.  It has been votes as the best launcher by android user and provide more than 10000 themes to choose and a very good development support. It has all the features that other launchers has but one main feature is its 3d support. In the recent update rolled by go ex developers , everyone can use its 3d core support service which gives stability and more speed to this launcher. This one is highly recommended .This launcher has two version,  one is free and full version is paid. Download this launcher from android market free of cost.

SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE3 VS LG G2


                                     GALAXY NOTE3 VS LG G2

Today  we are going to compare 2 smartphones galaxy note3 and lg g2 which both will be released this October in us carriers and around the globe.
We have already discussed the specifications and hardware part of samsung galaxy note3 in our previous article and comparison review so today we are gonna emphasise more lg g2 which was announced back in August. Lets go through the comparison between these two flagships.

LG G2 comes witha 5 . 2 inches screen and according to lg.  It's the maximum screen which a hand can operate comfortably.

DISPLAY
LG G2 has 5.7 inches giving resolution of 1920*1080 and a pixel density of 424 ppi. Though it's still less than galaxy s4 which gives 441 ppi. On the other hand galaxy note3 comes with 5.7 inches superamoled screen with 1920 *1080 resolution and a pixel density of only 386ppi. So my verdict for better screen goes to LG G2 with more crisp and sharp pictures.

PROCESSOR
Both LG G2 and Galaxy Note3 packs process from quallcomm,  lg g2 is packed with a powerful 2.3Ghz quad core snapdragon 800 processor with 330 adrenocortical gpu and galaxy note3  comes with 2.3 quad core snapdragon 800 with 330 adreno gpu.So processing power wise both are equal to eachother. Whichever phone you will get,  you will get fast processing speed.

RAM
LG g2 comes with 2gb of ram similar to galaxy s4 and experia z on the other hand galaxy note3 will be the first device to pack 3gb off ram on it.
So in terms of multi tasking 3gb will overshadow lg g2 2gb ram.

CAMERA
LG g2 has 13 mega pixel  back camera which is capable of shooting 1080 video at 60fps and it's front camera is 2mp with 1080 resolution at 30 fps.
Galaxy note3 also has 13mp and 2mp front camera but galaxy note3 can shoot in 4k mode and it's front camera can recored videos at 1080 with 60fps . a galaxy note3 is the winner here hands down if you are planning to use front camera . as if now we haven't tested both the phones yet so we can't say whose pictures will be the best.

MEMORY
You will be disappointed with lg g2 as it only comes in 16gb and 32gb of memory with no micro as slot. For a smartphone like this 16gb seems very less. Galaxy note3 will come with 32gb and 6 4gb variant with a micro as slot . So galaxy note3 wins this sector hands down.

SOFTWARE
Galaxy note3 will come with 4.3version of jellybean android and lg g2 will come with 4.2.2 but soon lg g2 will be upgraded to 4.30

CONNECTIVITY
Both the device are 4 lte technology capable a and will have other services like blue tooth , wifi direct and nfc

PRICE AND AVAILABILITY
galaxy note3 will be available by the end of October and is prices at $240 for 2 years contract and lg g2 is prices at $200 for 2 year contract. Both of them are just one month away.

So choose wisely and if you like this comparison informative,  please like us on facebook and bookmark us for more updates and technology review.

Gone are those days when we used to read books , the world has revolutionised the way books are read today. Today no one goes to a book shop to buy their favourite authors and take it home. With the emerge of smartphones , we have 4 to 5 inches screen that via used to read books , read news on the go. E reading is the new area of books and reading today. Today I am going to share my top 4 applications where one can download and read ebooks on the go . so let's take a look

1.AMAZON
Everyone is aware of Amazon  and this digital book store came to India last year. Amazon application is available for android in the play market and for ios in the apple store . its called amazon Kindle which gives you tonnes of option to read and download ebooks,  articles and newspaper through their app . You'll also find some books in hindi aswell but most of them are available in English. I am adding a snapshot of Amazon Kindle for you taken from my smartphone.

2 . MAGZTER
MAGZTER is available for free for android , ios and windows phone. This app mostly includes magazine articles to read. It gives options to subscribe to your favourite magazines from the app . this app recently for updates and now supports 8 more languages. Almost every magazine is available to subscribe.

3 . ROCKSTAND
This app gives you many options to subscribe and read your favourite magazine and author. It's an Indian product. The good thing about this app is that it's available in many languages , suited for all kinds of readers across the globe . unfortunately this app is not made for android , it's only available for ios.

4 . FLIPKART READER
this one gives you access to more than 1 million ebooks to choose from. You name it and it's there and the pricing is also very affordable . one good thing about flipkart is it let's you buy a sample before purchasing any e book . it surely enhances your reading and gives lots of options.

So you have lots of options to choose from,  I like amazon  that's because downloads are faster in kindle and it gives great access to international author. But for india , rockstand is suited as it's gives different languages options to choose.

SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 3 VS GALAXY S4



                       GALAXY NOTE3 VS GALAXY S4

Samsun galaxy note3 was announced 2 days ago and we think now is the right time to compare galaxy note3 and galaxy s4.
Galaxy s4 was released earlier this year which was one of the most selling phone from samsung,  do you think that galaxy note3 has what it takes to break galaxy s4's sales and record. Lets take a look.
The biggest difference between them is the screen difference,  note3 has 5.7 inches superamoled and galaxy s4 is packed with 5.0 inched superamoled.
PROCESSOR
The galaxy s4 is powered by 1.9Ghz quad core snapdragon 600 process and Galaxy Note3 is packed with 2.3Ghz quad core snapdragon 800 processor.

RAM
Note3 comes with amazing 3gb of Ram and galaxy S4 comes with super fast 2gb Ram . I personally belive ram is not much of a difference here unless you  are using more than 50 applications at the same time . S4  has stunning multi tasking capabilities and still gives 500gb of free ram.

DISPLAY
galaxy note3 has 5.7 inches superamoled screen which gives a  screen resolution of 1920*1080 and with 386 ppi and galaxy S4 has 5.0 inches superamoled of same resolution with 441 ppi. Galaxy S4 wins this segment hands down. But 386 is not bad , personally speaking you can't tell the difference.


BATTERY

Galaxy note is a very big phone so it's very obvious that the battery will also be bigger. It's pack BATTERY ed with 3200mah battery
galaxy S4 on the other hand has 200 mag battery which gives a battery backup of 1 day.

CAMERA
Both the phones has 13 mega pixel of camera with lots of add on features like her mode , dual camera mode etc.

SOFTWARE
galaxy S4 was released with jellybean 4.2.2 and is  getting 4.30 on this October, on the other hand galaxy note3 will come with jellybean 4.3 version customer with samsung's touch wiz.
