After Europe pricing details were reportedly tipped by Samsung officials at MWC, Samsung Netherlands has officially revealed the pricing of the two smartphones and has started taking pre-orders as well. Both smartphones are listed to ship on April 10.
The Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge come in 32GB, 64GB and 128GB variants. At present, the Samsung Netherlands website only lists the 32GB variant of Galaxy S6 for EUR 699 (approximately Rs. 48,300) and the Galaxy S6 Edge at EUR 849 (approximately Rs. 58,600). There is no official pricing information of the other storage variants of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge.
Th 32GB pricing for both the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge by Samsung Netherlands matches with the previously mentioned report citing Samsung officials, which also revealed pricing for the 64GB and 128GB variants.

Xiaomi MI4

Xiaomi on Wednesday announced that the Mi 4 16GB in India will be sold via Flipkart without registration from Thursday. The Chinese company also announced that registrations for the 64GB model of the 2014 flagship Xiaomi Mi 4 have started for the next flash sale on Tuesday.

The company took to its Mi India Facebook and Twitter accounts to make the announcement.
Xiaomi said, "Registration has started! You can register now to buy your Mi 4 64GB at 2pm IST, March 3rd. Tell everyone!! Also, Mi 4 16GB will be available on Flipkart from Feb 26th - No registration required!"

At the time of writing, Flipkart's Mi 4 page hasn't yet started selling the device, but we are expecting it to go live soon.

To recall, the 16GB Xiaomi Mi 4 is priced at Rs. 19,999, while the 64GB Mi 4 is priced at Rs. 23,999. The Mi 4 64GB went on sale in its first flash sale earlier this week and it just took less than a minute for the 64GB model to go out of stock. The company however didn't reveal how fast the 16GB variant went out of stock, nor the number of units that were on offer of both variants.
The first flash sale for the 16GB Mi 4 saw 25,000 units go out of stock in 15 seconds, while Xiaomi never provided figures of how many units were up for sale (or how fast they went out of stock) in the second flash sale.

The previous Mi 4 flash sale also saw the company crack down on profiteers, cutting down on the time to buy the phone for those who added the phone to their carts. Users now have only half an hour to complete the purchase, as opposed to 4 hours earlier, which gave people enough time to 'sell' the unit to others for a premium and have it shipped to the buyer directly via Flipkart.
For specifications, the Mi 4 runs Android 4.4 KitKat with the company's MIUI 6 skin on top. It features a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor clocked at 2.5GHz; 3GB of RAM; 5-inch full-HD display (1080x1920 pixels); 13-megapixel rear camera; an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, and a 3080mAh Li-ion battery.

Earlier this month, Xiaomi India also started selling the budget 4G-enabled Redmi Note 4G via Flipkart without registrations.

Sony Xperia E4G

Sony has quietly launched the 4G-enabled version of its Xperia E4 smartphone, which was launched earlier this month. Dubbed Sony Xperia E4g, the smartphone will also be available in a dual-SIM version as well. The handset has been priced at EUR 129 (roughly Rs. 9,100) and will start reaching markets by April this year.
Based on Android 4.4.4 KitKat, the Sony Xperia E4g features a smaller 4.7-inch screen as compared to its 3G version (5-inch) but has the same qHD (540x960 pixel) resolution, and is powered by a slightly more powerful 1.5GHz quad-core processor (unspecified) coupled with 1GB of RAM. It bears the same 8GB of inbuilt storage that is expandable via microSD card.

Other specifications of the Xperia E4g include 5-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and a 2300mAh battery that Sony claims provides two days of battery life. The Japanese firm has also included Battery Stamina and Ultra Stamina modes to help.

How to Store Apk Files ? How to use them ?

Google recommends you to download every appication through Google Play, they do not let you do your thing with the Apk, it just gets downloaded to your device.
However, in case you don't have a internet connection you can easily store the apk file for future use. In this post, im gonna tell you how to manage your apps collection.
This can be an illegal act but who cares if you don't have an internet connection.

If in the starting phase you have an internet connection, just log in to Google Play and download your apps. After you are satisfied just download one more app named somehow as bluetooth app sender.
Install and open that application, Now send all the required applications over bluetooth to your computer or any other phone and make a folder of those all apk files.

Now you got your collection of applications, now rename all the applications according to your need. Place that folder in your phone's storage.
Whenevr you need an application of yours, you'll have that in your phone's external or internal storage. Just install it and have fun.

What is FPS ? Why does it matter ?

While making a video, the most important thing is the Resolution, and the second most important thing is FPS which stands for frames per seconds.

A video can be easily defined by a slideshow of pictures moving at a high speed. You might have noticed the Specification of a Video Camera in which it is written that it makes 30 frames per seconds, actually it tells us that the camera takes 30 pictures in a second and arranges them to make a video for 1 second.

Today, we have Hi-speed Slow Motion Cameras in the market which can make a video upto 10,000 Fps, which is really a high number. Cinematographic equipment normally make videos at 24 frames per second and for a Slow Motion video it is 48 Frames per second.

We all have seen the Tv series like Time warp as we all watch Discovery channel. Their Video Cameras are Specially made for Producing Slow Motion Videos, that's why they run at 10,000 Fps.

For a Android device, like Sony Xperia Z3 it is a very important feature because no other phone in the market comes with 240 Fps video recording capability. With this you can easily play slow motion videos. Smartphones manufacturers are trying to give professional quality features to their phones and in my point of view you must buy a phone after checking out this feature.

How to capture Good Quality Photographs from your Android smartphone ?

Remember that a phone's camera is not like professional SLR's but still you can take some good quality pictures with it.

Here are few tips if you wanna make your self captured snapshots look like the professional ones:

1. Consider having a smartphone which have higher camera resolution i.e. Higher MegaPixels

2. Set the quality of the picture to highest resolution in camera settings.

3. Set the focus mode to touch focus, which will allow you to manually focus any object by simply touching the screen.

4. Select the metering to centre, which will ensure that the focus is on the object.

5. Smartphones do not have optical zoom, they zoom digitally which creates distortion in the image. So, do not take magnified pictures.

How to reduce the data usage on android smartphone ?

1. Whenever you buy a smartphone it comes with a basic set of pre-installed applications, which in most cases needs update when you log into the playstore.

2. At this moment, all android smartphones (except the ones with android jelly bean and lollipop) comes with an outdated version of playstore which needs to be updated to the latest version, and at this moment you require a good internet connection for this process.

3. Android smartphones require a google account to work properly, when you log into your google account through your phone, it synchronises application data with online servers which consumes mobile data.

4. Android operating system is well known for updates, application and system updates consumes hell lot of Gbs.

5. Most of the android applications come with an unlimited internet usage permissions, which also consumes data services.

6. Restrict the background data usage of applications by going into Settings < data usage < options < restrict background data for all apps.

7. Use a wifi connection to update all the apps, if in any case you don't have wifi support then steals your neighbour's wifi password.

8. Now you are all set for a cut through mobile bills. Enjoy !
