Xiaomi MI MAX 2 Design & Built

Xiaomi always comes with unique design in their every device. In Xiaomi Mi Max 2 also they have improved a lot when we compare the same with their previous MI MAX. This time they are offering full metal body construction with better compactness in large display, better battery and even extra gorilla glass protection. Due to metal body construction and large display it seems that device is bit slippery and tempered glass and a case is a must buy because they don’t offer the same in the package. But still, I would say the built of the device and feels is top notch and you won’t get even a single complaint about it that too in this affordable pricing.

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-front-cameraAt the front at the top, we get 5-megapixel shooter beside it different earpiece sensors and LED notification light which is a single color LED notification light and don’t know why they have removed the multi-color notification led from the front like the one we have in previous model. Coming to the front part there you will get a 6.4-inches very huge display.

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-front-buttonsBelow that you get back capacitive keys which do light up and also support many other gesture features in them. These gestures are normal what we get in almost all xiaomi devices due to MIUI, there official ROM.

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-charging-portComing to the down portion of the phone, it houses the USB Type-C port which do support fast charging beside it a dual speaker out of which left one having the primary MIC and right one is having an actual speaker in it. Type-C port also support OTG and it can almost play anything which you can think to use via USB port.

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-volume-buttonsTurning around to the right you will get a power button which is made up of metal and give quite good haptic feedback. Beside power button, we get volume rockers and nothing much over here.

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-hybrid-sim-trayTurning the phone to the left, we only get a Hybrid SIM tray slot which supports dual nano SIM’s or single sim plus micro SD card that to up to 256 GB.

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-headphone-jackComing to the top side of the phone here we get IR blaster which we can be seen in almost all Xiaomi devices and besides it houses a secondary noise cancellation MIC. We also get a 3.5 mm audio jack on the top which is being removed in Xiaomi Mi 6 which is a beast.

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-back-cameraAt the back side of the phone we are getting a 12-megapixel camera, beside it dual tone LED flash and below that we get a Fingerprint sensor which is really fast same like what we get in Redmi 4 and Redmi Note 4, but the thing is that if you are having small hands you can never reach out to the fingerprint sensor by using single hand. Very odd placement, with this large device i would say it should being placed in the front where everyone can easily use it.

Display

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-reviewThis time with Xiaomi Mi MAX 2 we were expecting to get something unique with QHD panel. But they have decreases the size of bezels and give us same Full HD panel with the resolution of 1980 x 1080 with the pixel density of 342 ppi.

Still, the thing is that the screen on the Mi Max 2 looks dark and crisp. It looks great when you’re watching video and playing games on it, when you are getting this big display in this price i don’t think you will be having any single complaint regarding it. This time they have also confirmed that they are using a Gorilla glass 4 protection on top of display which is really nice. We also get a 2.5D curved glass on top of display which makes it more smooth while using.

The screen visibility in different lighting situation is also good and even in bright sunlight you can easily use it with great auto brightness feature. Overall no complaints with the display, everything works fine and with this screen size I would say FHD is more than enough and it also won’t require more battery life with that large battery.

Performance

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-performanceAs we all know whenever Xiaomi comes up with something new it is always great. So as this time, Xiaomi MI MAX 2 delivers all what we can expect and need with the same the price bracket. Under the metal body construction of MI MAX 2 is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor supporting with an Adreno 506 GPU & 64GB of expandable storage via micro SD card slot. Coming to the performance part it is one of the smoothest phones till now and it is more polished because of their MIUI 8 and soon will be update in MIUI 9, which is one of my personal favorite ROM.

Coming to the usual benchmarks, MI MAX 2 scores 60220 in the AnTuTu Benchmark, which is quite good. These scores are measured after installing few games and other apps which might affect the score. As MI MAX 2 is equipped with 4GB of RAM, which makes the device which supports any kind of multitasking and for any kind of job. MI MAX 2 has already left so much free RAM to make it perform best.

From every aspect media, browsing and all multitasking, the MI6 works flawlessly with no question in mind. I have made a Gaming test and heating test so don’t forget to check it out. While high end gaming you need to low down the graphics else it might lag.

Battery

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-back-sideComing the one of the very important aspect of the phone which is its battery, because by mean of battery only it will provide whole day juice to the phone. Here this time with MI MAX 2 we are getting 5300 mAh Battery, which is the only largest available battery in the INDIAN Market. For me it easily last me more than 2.5 days rest it depends on your usage. For normal users it will last more than 3 days for sure. This can be possible because of new snapdragon battery efficient processor plus well optimized MIUI 8.

The device houses with a USB Type-C port and also support Quick Charge 3.0 which make the device charge extremely fast. It takes about 2 hours 30 minutes to charge from 0% to 100%. Rest, it depends on your usage and work how to get better battery out of it.

We also get different battery modes which you can switch as per your usage and comfort. Each mode has its own specifications an features according to which we can select the mode for proper battery optimization.

Camera

Xiaomi-Mi-Max-2-cameraWhen we see MI MAX 2, it seems to be the same that we get in Redmi Note 4. At the back we get 12-megapixel back camera which is support with Dual Tone LED flash. The best thing is that we can also record 4K videos using the phone.

At the front we get 5-megapixel camera which captures decent shots. Still what we can expect in this price. I have already made a separate video on camera features and shots so do check it out for better reference.

New WordPress Setups Become Target in Hack Attacks

2

It has been learned that hackers have been following a new strategy in recent months to gain admin access to WordPress-hosted websites. The attacks have enabled hackers to run PHP code within the framework and take over the websites.

Recent Hacking Trend on the Rise

The attacks were first publicized by security company Wordfence after they noticed several orchestrated attempts to gain control of different websites in May and June. One common characteristic of these websites is that all of them have had WordPress installed but not yet configured on their servers.

An attack starts with the hacker scanning for the specific URL /wp-admin/setup-config.php. If this particular URL has a setup page, that means WordPress was recently installed on the server but is yet to be configured.

The installation of WordPress on the server prompts the selection of a database, which an attacker can manipulate to his or her favor. Even with just a working WordPress installation and admin access on the hosting account, an attack may already be considered successful as the hacker can already create an admin-level account of his or her own.

Alarming Consequences

Wordfence has stated that these attacks are alarming as the hacking incidents will not only enable attackers to gain control of the websites; it will also give them access to entire hosting accounts, along with all the websites in them. Apart from that, they can upload a plugin, execute a PHP code, install a malicious shell, and gain access to website files. Worse, they can be used to harass and attack other websites and servers.

Other Risks

Website administrators and managers have to be more careful than ever as hacking attacks in general are still high. Brute force attacks peaked at a daily rate of 41 million in June while the peak daily attack volume worldwide was at 11 million. A big number of the attacks come from Russia, the United States, and Ukraine with 224.8 million, 128.5 million, and 89.3 million respectively.

Prevention

Because of the risks involved with cyber attacks, it is advisable that WordPress users complete configurations right after installation, so that attackers will not have a window of opportunity to gain access to their websites or servers. It will also help if monitoring and auditing is done by the website administrators to see if there are incomplete installations, so that they will be completed as soon as possible. Selecting a good web hosting solution is very important in this regard. While a secure and reliable web hosting service may be more expensive, you can get a better rate by using a WordPress coupon code.

Hack attacks can be very costly to individuals, businesses, and organizations. As such, it is important that you take the necessary measures to prevent yourself from becoming a victim.

Planning to buy a new device online? – Here are 8 spot-on tips you need to consider

2

There is usually an almost indescribable glee when a new package finally arrives, especially if it’s a new gadget that promises next level features that will make your life easier and more fun. That is why when you open the package and find a device entirely different from its online description, the anger and frustration can make you go mad, as you desperately try to trace the customer care contacts of the company to file a complaint. To save you all the bad feelings and the hustle, here are several tips you can use to ensure that you get the right gadget.

Tips for Buying the Right Gadget Online

With the convenience of online shopping, you can have a new gadget within a day or two. As exciting as this is, don’t rush to make that purchase before you consider the tips below:

· Comparison Shopping

It is a rookie mistake to shop on only one site when looking to buy a new gadget. Even though e-retailers like Amazon have competitive prices, you might be missing out on a special offer on another site. Most people always compare prices during their regular shopping routine so as to take advantage of sales and promotions, but do not apply the same technique to online purchases. Ensure that you do online comparison shopping on sites like BrandBallot, to get the best price.

· Search for Reviews

Reading the manufacturers description of their product is guaranteed to get you excited and click the buy button especially if the gadget is a limited edition. But exercise patience and do your due diligence before the purchase. Check out a few reviews, especially video reviews so that you can see the gadget in action. Also, beware of reviews that are only positive, pay attention to those that offer some criticism as they are more honest.

· Check out Online Gadget Forums

There are multiple online forums where techies talk about their favorite gadgets, stores, and deals. Only search for the gadget you intend to buy on some of these forums and note the most recommended stores and those that delivered poor quality devices. Forums are an excellent source of information from real people who actually bought the gadgets they are posting about.

· Consider Refurbished

Yes, you would like your gadget to be brand new in a sealed box that you get the honor of the opening, but at times the price of a new gadget may just be beyond you. In this case, refurbished contrivances may be a great alternative. Refurbished items are usually tested for functionality, and any defects are repaired. Many of them are even sold with new accessories. Just ensure that they come with a full warranty.

· Track the Price

There are gadgets whose prices fluctuate from time to time. There may be sales and special offers at certain times of the year. Take note of the price history of the gadget you desire so you can figure out the best time to buy it.

· Check out Customer Testimonials

Once you identify an e-commerce store that offers you a good price, make sure you check what other customers are saying about their experience. People are likely to post online if they had a frustrating time with an e-store. You can check their website, but a simple search of the store name and its reviews will get you the information you need.

· Stay Up to Date

With the speed of technology, gadgets are regularly being revamped. Before making a purchase, go into the details of the specifications of the device you intend to buy. Check the specs against the latest available software for the gadget. Look out for press releases from the respective company, or announcements on their website, about intended upgrades. This will help you get the latest and most efficient version of the gadget you covet.

· Shop Safely

This is the most important rule when it comes to online shopping no matter what you are buying. Ensure your anti-virus software is up to date and always check the credentials of the e-commerce store. Always use a credit card and avoid domain names that sound suspicious.

Due to the rapid increase of the revenues of e-retailers like Amazon, many electronic stores are choosing to operate online. E-retailers offer steep competition to traditional stores by offering lower prices for their commodities. As a result, more and more online stores are being opened. Add this to the convenience of online shopping, and purchasing gadgets online will continue to be the norm. With this in mind, it is best that you be equipped with the right information on how to buy the right gadget online. The tips above will help you choose the right gadget, save you some money, and help you avoid disappointment when your new gadget arrives.

4 Ways Chatbots Can Help a Small Business Owner

2

If you are ignoring chatbots just because you own a small business, it’s time to think again; they can take your business to the next level. Maybe you don’t believe that chatbots are the future for both small and big business; you just need to see this Forbes article which indicates that in as early as 2015 over 1.4 billion people were already interaction with chatbots per year.

1. Keeping Your Business Open Even When Closed

The days when customers would wait until a business opened its doors for them to get service are long gone. The modern customer expects to get customer service around the clock. This is where chatbots can assist small businesses that don’t have the resources to have staff manning their customer service on a 24-hour basis.

If you have already set up your website for search engine optimization, it is likely customers will start noticing your business more. You can support the efforts of your website by investing in chatbots that can answer your customer’s questions and queries whether your business is open or not.

2. Enhance Engagement on Social Media

If you see a social media guide which still does not focus on how a small business can leverage its social media engagement using chatbots: that guide has lived past its sell by date. Businesses that are already using Facebook Messenger to connect with customers can now use chatbots on messenger.

Apart from bolstering social media engagement using chatbots on Facebook messenger can also help your small business to achieve more sales.

3. Save Money And Resources

As a small business, it is important to ensure that all your resources are used effectively. Even though chatbots look simple, they are quite smart.  For example, when a user tells them something, they don’t forget. And, as VentureBeat highlights, retention is as simple as adding additional memory. Keep in mind that some chatbots are designed to remember the Zip code of a user so that even when the user asks a question which is too broad, the bot delivers information that is relevant to that customer based on the information they already know.

Apart from helping customers get information specific to their needs, chatbots can also help a small business to gather useful intelligence about where their customers are located. This gives the business an opportunity to tailor their offering according to the needs of that customers segment.

4. Interact with Employees 24/7

Chatbots can also be used by employees on a 24/7 basis. Instead of having to wait until someone is able to answer their questions in person, chatbots can supply employees with answers they need in order to successfully complete a task. Aspects that can be managed using this technology include employees checking their leave balance and applying for leave. Also, when employees are looking for specific information about the company, they can get a fast response without having to wait for someone with knowledge to be physically available.

Now that you know chatbots are not only for big business, it’s time to try them.

What happens if you can´t access your data because of the heavy web traffic? If you live in a disaster prone area, you should consider investing in an offline, local vault solution. Securing your data in a protected offsite location keeps your data safe from physical damage. So, even if your area faces harsh natural disasters, you will be able to meet your business objectives if you invest in an offsite data storage location.

  • Backing up files online

If you backup your data online, you won´t have to spend money on a new software or hardware. What are some of the benefits online backup provides? Well, online backup is a broad platform that supports numerous applications, allowing you to monitor your backup. When you backup your data online, your data is compressed, encrypted, duplicated and kept safe in a data center. Therefore, even if you lose your data, accidentally delete your data, or lose your system to theft, you will be able to retrieve your data via online backup.

3 Features That You Want To Have In A Tactical Flashlight

2

Although Tactical Flashlight was specifically built and manufactured to be used with a firearm, it can be used in many different ways. Most of the tactical flashlights available for purchase in the market boast of LED bulbs. Constructed of many materials that can stand the test of time such as aerospace grade aluminum, tactical flashlights are more sturdy and durable than regular flashlights. It also helps that tactical flashlights are waterproof. Although there are many tactical flashlights available for purchase in the market, the ones worth purchasing are very few and far between. The best tactical flashlights can be used for self-defense, during emergencies, in the nighttime, and for hunting! So, what should you be on the lookout for while acquiring a tactical flashlight? Here are 3 features that you want to have in a tactical flashlight!

  • A tactical flashlight must have several operating modes

A tactical flashlight must be flexible and boast of several operating modes. For instance, if you need to read a map, you will need a tactical flashlight that features light operating modes. If you try to read the map while the flashlight produces 600 lumens of brightness, you could literally go blind. Therefore, when acquiring a tactical flashlight, it is of paramount importance for you to look for tactical flashlights that have several operating modes such as low, medium, high/light output modes. It is even better if you purchase a tactical flashlight that boasts of strobe modes and SOS modes.

  • What about the size?

As we stated earlier, a tactical flashlight is beneficial in emergency situations. But, how beneficial will it be if it is large, chunky, and requires the use of both hands to operate? Therefore, when choosing a tactical flashlight, you must ensure that it is lightweight and easy to operate. Although it should be lightweight, it shouldn´t lack in the durability department; a tactical flashlight must be sturdy enough to counter high-damage impact. It is best if you opt to purchase a tactical flashlight that is constructed of aircraft grade aluminum; not only is the material durable, it is also lightweight.

  • A tactical flashlight should be extremely bright

If you are looking for a flashlight that can light up an entire trail all the way to 200 meters and more, you should invest in a tactical flashlight capable of producing 600 to 700 lumens. Many people are of the opinion that you should acquire a tactical flashlight that produces the most lumens. However, you should consider your light usage before going all out on a tactical flashlight. For instance, if you will only be using the tactical flashlight at home and indoors, what´s the point of acquiring a tactical flashlight capable of producing 3000 lumens when one that can produce around 500 lumens suffice? Be warned that there are many tactical flashlights that claim to provide 1,000 lumens or more when they only give the average lumen output of around 325 lumens.

You should also choose to purchase a tactical flashlight that can be slotted in a belt clip/holster.
