House I need help, my neighbour in Ghana asked me me to help him get a phone from Nigeria when coming back but due to his budget I don't know the right phone to get that won't cause any trouble which might make me look bad, his budget is 35k and someone advised me to get hot5 but I have read a lot of positive and negative review on this platform so I don't know what to do.
Phones / What Is Your Reason For Using The Case ? by phonedaddy: 9:44am On Oct 11, 2018
So I've always wondered the different reasons we like to use a case with our phones. Apart from keeping it scratch free, or protecting it from a drop though, does anyone have a more specific use when it comes to buying the type of case you buy for your phone?

I personally like to buy big, rugged cases for one reason and that's for comfort. I don't know if anyone feels the same way specially those individuals with big hands, but i can relate to how thin phones keep on getting because for users with big hands and using devices without a case might feel uncomfortable to use.

So what is your reason for using a case ?
TV/Movies / Chelsea Peretti Leaving Brooklyn Nine-nine During Season 6 by phonedaddy: 3:59pm On Oct 04, 2018
Chelsea Peretti is leaving Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Peretti took to Twitter to announce her exit from the comedy which is poised to make its official NBC debut sometime during midseason.

"B99 fans. Hiiiiiiiiiiii. Chelsea Peretti, here. I won't be doing a full season of Brooklyn Nine Nine in Season 6. But that doesn't mean I won't ever be back, winky face emoji, heart emoji. I want to thank you for the hours you spent watching Gina be Gina: confident, idiotic-but-smart, pithy, and infused with rhythm and cell-phone radiation," she said in a series of tweets.

Peretti went on to say Emmy Rossum, who recently announced her exit from Shameless, said it best and tweeted Rossum's farewell letter with the parts relevant to Peretti's exit bolded. See it below.

Peretti has been with the cast since Brooklyn Nine-Nine started on Fox in 2013. She and husband Jordan Peele welcomed a son in 2017.

Viewers will see Peretti's fan-favorite character Gina Linetti again when the comedy makes its debut on NBC, she is expected to exit sometime during the sixth season and as Peretti said, you haven't seen the last of her.

"From the moment Mike Schur and I decided to create this show, we wanted Chelsea Peretti to be part of it, and she always will be.

She has brought so much to her amazing, hilarious, unique portrayal of Gina Linetti, which is not surprising since she is one of the funniest people in history," series co-creator Dan Goor said in a statement released on Twitter. "We have tried really hard to create a storyline for her departure that lives up to a character who can only be described as 'The human embodiment of the 100 emoji.' While it's sad to see a member of the family leave, we are so proud of Chelsea and excited for what she does next. Also, I know for a fact this isn't the last we'll see of Gina Linetti. I mean, she got run over by a friction' bus, and she only missed like a week of work.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine, which follows an NYPD police precinct, also stars Andy Samberg, Stephanie Beatriz, Terry Crews, Melissa Fumero, Joe Lo Truglio, Andrew Braugher, Dirk Blocker and Joel McKinnon Miller.

Phones / What Do You Think Android 10 Q Should Be Called? by phonedaddy: 12:07pm On Oct 03, 2018
Google has officially launchedAndroid 9.0, publicly confirming the name for the next version of its mobile OS is Pie. Now that the suspense is over, we’re already thinking about 2019. Unless something changes drastically, Google will launch Android 10.0 Q a year from now. What will the next major Android update’s name be?

Google has always been keen towards naming its operating system after something sweet that's also known to all globally. Starting from Cupcake, Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean, KitKat, Lollipop, Marshmallow, Nougat, Oreo, and now Pie, the tradition has been such. The same is expected of the next Android version. But, finding a sweet starting with the letter Q is difficult. There're not many options. Hence, selecting a name for Android Q can be a real challenge for Google.

The letter “Q” doesn’t offer many options if Google sticks to sweets, but it’s got a few names to pick from for Android 10.0 Q when the time comes.



Android 10 Quiche

Android 10 Quaker Oats

Android 10 Queen of Puddings

Android 10 Quindim

Android 10 Qottab

Android 10 Qurabiya

Android 10 Qottab

Android 10 Quesito

Android 10 Queijadinha

Android 10 Quirks

Google doesn’t really have many choices for picking Android 10.0 Q codenames if it sticks with its sweets-only naming convention. Maybe it’ll pick a new kind of food for the next version of Android.

What do you think Google should call Android 10.0 Q when it launches this time next year? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Phones / Machine Learning And AI: How Smartphones Get Even Smarter by phonedaddy: 10:19am On Oct 02, 2018
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML): these keywords have become the major trend in 2017/18 and some smartphones now even have their own AI chip, which according to manufacturers is meant to make smartphones actually smart. But what is just hype and in what ways are these buzzwords actually substantiated? We take a closer look at the fields of application and the chips to separate facts from fiction.

Kirin 970 from its subsidiary Hisilicon, the Chinese company captured the public's attention. The Neural Processing Unit (NPU) on the SoC is specifically responsible for the functions that can be performed faster and better with AI than with a traditional processor. At present, this mainly includes functions related to photography, image recognition and processing.

First of all, artificial intelligence is the wrong term: considering today's so-called AI applications, at the core they're really using machine learning. A convolutional neural network (CNN) learns to recognize patterns on the basis of a large amount of raw data—completely independently. This training usually takes place on large server farms because it requires an immense amount of data. A machine learning application can then apply the patterns trained or learned in the first step to more data—this step is also described with the technical term ‘inference’. For smartphones, the latter step is most relevant. A trained neural network can, for example, recognize objects or faces in an image.

In general, a classic CPU can also do this same computation. The individual arithmetic operations are rather simple, but there are so many of them that they also require an octa-core processor. More cores are therefore the key to success, and they don't have to be able to do that much: a chip with a large number of small processors can run machine learning applications more efficiently than a standard processor.
qualcomm snapdragon
Qualcomm also relies on machine learning in its own chips.
Qualcomm
Graphics chips are made for machine learning

Where do you find this many cores? Exactly, in the graphics chip, or the GPU. This is of course also required for standard tasks, even in everyday smartphone use. That's why NPU units are constructed in a similar way to an additional GPU: enormous amounts of computational cores process the numerous operations all at once, which leads to great performance advantages in machine learning applications.

And why do you even need it in a smartphone? These computations could also be carried out on the large, powerful servers in the data center and then data can be exchanged via the cloud. Sure, they could, but the cloud has known disadvantages that also apply to machine learning. It can only be used reliably with a stable internet connection and data transmission would quickly lead to unacceptable delays. The camera app, for example, would have to constantly load preview images onto the server in order to recognize the content of an image. And that shows another massive disadvantage: users would be skeptical about data protection.
There are currently several smartphones that already have an NPU. You may even already have one. This is because heterogeneous computing is used in many current Qualcomm chipsets.

This makes it possible to perform a task with the best chips in the smartphone. There are a lot of them: the classic CPU, the GPU and the signal processor. All these processors have different strengths. The CPU scores particularly well with complicated computing that cannot be executed side by side, while the GPU can accelerate computing that can be carried out simultaneously. And the signal processor is optimized for real-time computing. Machine learning applications are therefore always processed by the most suitable processor.

huawei kirin 970 apple a11 bionic
Apple A11 (left) and Kirin 970 (right), not to scale: NPUs do not have to be large.

We already mentioned the Kirin 970 with an NPU. Shortly following this processor, Apple presented the new iPhones and the A11 chip is of course on board with its NPU, which is used by FaceID. There are no concrete fields of application outside of FaceID that are known, but this is likely to change quickly in the near future. The picture above shows that the NPU in Kirin 970 is quite small (bottom center), whereas Apple reserves quite a large part of the chip for the NPU.

Google Pixel 2 (XL), on the other hand, there is the Pixel Visual Core, which supposedly can perform three trillion operations per second! The Visual Core is a classic NPU, but with a changeable history. The chip was initially unused before it was activated with Android 8.1, but only so that third-party apps are able to use HDR+. The standard camera app doesn't use the Visual Core.
pixel visual core
Pixel Visual Core: A pure NPU for the second Pixel generation. Google

Starting with Android 8.1 there is the Neural Networks API (NN-API) interface, with which app developers can access NPUs without knowing the technical specifications of the respective implementation. The CPU is used as a fallback if there is no NPU installed in the smartphone. Before that, access was only possible via manufacturer-specific routines. In fact, in the Pixel the only pathway is via the NN-API. Google also introduced an abstract library that fully supports the NN-API: Tensorflow Lite. This library allows you to use trained neural networks on smartphones and could soon become standard in many Android apps.
Huawei uses machine learning for four apps
Huawei Mate 10 Pro and Honor View 10, the Chinese manufacturer takes advantage of the NPU in three places. The first and most visible point for the user is the scene recognition feature when taking photos, which adapts the camera parameters to the subject in front of the lens. A small icon in the app indicates what the camera app has detected in front of the camera thanks to machine learning.
AndroidPIT HTC U11 LG V30 Galaxy Note8 Pixel2 plus Huawei Mate10 pro 1969
Advanced machine learning is still not provided in all smartphones.

NPU in Kirin 970 to better understand and predict the user's usage behavior. In this way, resources can be better allocated and energy efficiency can be improved, at least on paper. Although the manufacturer makes promises like this, they can hardly be validated, because it would require two test devices, with one of them having a deactivated NPU.

The third purpose is a cooperation with Microsoft. The translation app from Microsoft, which is pre-installed on smartphones, uses the NPU for faster translations, which in principle also works offline.

CNNs have been shown to be particularly well suited for the noise reduction of audio signals. For instance, a trained neural network can serve as a noise filter in noisy environments and thus increases the detection of voice commands. Hisilicon says detection security could increase from 80 to 92 percent in difficult environments. The necessary computing can only realistically be carried out by an NPU.
Performance comparison of AI chips

Three available smartphones already have a Neural Processing Unit on board, and potentially many more will as a result of Qualcomm's heterogeneous computing approach. You might start to wonder: which NPU is faster? To a certain extent, this goes hand in hand with the question of which NPU has lower power consumption when performing the same task.

These questions are not so easy to answer due to the peculiarities of NPUs. After all, there are some early indications that have emerged from the Chinese benchmark suite Master Lu. Anandtech tested a Mate 10 Pro, Google Pixel 2 XL and LG V30.

In the Mate 10 Pro, the NPU was used on a regular basis and the LG V30 was able to perform heterogeneous computing on a Snapdragon 835. In contrast, Pixel 2 XL does not support Qualcomm technology and the benchmark doesn’t support the NN-API. Pixel 2 therefore provides values for machine learning applications purely supported by the CPU.

And the results aren’t so great. Master Lu derives values in frames per second. While Pixel 2 processes 0.7 frames per second in the first test with the CPU, the LG V30 with Qualcomm's heterogeneous computing achieves 5.3 fps with Qualcomm's heterogeneous computing. The Mate 10 Pro with NPU achieves 15.1 fps. The NPU and Qualcomm's approach are similar in terms of power consumption: the Mate 10 Pro requires 106 millijoules (mJ) per inference and the V30 requires slightly more at 130 mJ. The Pixel without machine learning acceleration consumes 5,847 mJ. All three of these values are according to Anandtech's measurements.

Phones / How To Improve Your Infinix Device Battery Life by phonedaddy: 10:08am On Sep 25, 2018
Tip #1: Select a low brightness level
A smartphone display consumes on average 40% of the battery.Therefore, having a lower brightness setting is the most practical way to minimize battery drain on your Infinix smartphone.

Tip #2: Disable Sync
Most people activate sync in order for them to receive notification of the different services they use such as Email. Sync may be convenient, but has the downside of being a serious battery drainer. Deactivate sync is another straightforward way to make sure your battery lasts longer.

Tip #3: Identify the battery drainers
Some applications are known to be serious battery drainers. You can go to the battery stats features and identify applications that consume most of your battery juice. You can choose to disable such apps.

Tip #4: Turn off Bluetooth and GPS
Bluetooth and GPS chips require battery juice to work. Having the two services on for a long time will drain battery. Make a point of turning them off when they’re not in active use.

Tip #5: Activate Battery Saving Mode
Infinix smartphones come inbuilt with Power saving and ultra-power saving modes. Activate either of the two when you need your battery to last longer.
That’s it on maximizing your battery life.

Tip#6: disable apps that are not regularly used by adding them to infinix freezer

Phones / What Data Does Android Back Up Automatically? by phonedaddy: 4:12pm On Sep 19, 2018
Much of the data on your Android phone or tablet is backed up by Google (or the individual apps you use) automatically, but what is being saved for you, and what do you need to save for yourself?

We’ll explain exactly what data is backed up automatically and what isn’t, so you can rest easy knowing your data is safe—or take steps to back up some application data on your own.


What Google Backs Up Automatically
Google has a service built into Android, aptly called Android Backup Service. By default, this service backs up most types of data you care about and associates it with the appropriate Google service, where you can also access it on the web. You can see your Sync settings by heading into Settings > Accounts > Google, then selecting your Gmail address.

Contacts, email, Docs, and Calendars: Your Android contacts are synced with your Google contacts online (you can access these contacts from Gmail or on the dedicated Google Contacts page), your email is safely stored in your Gmail account, and calendar events are synced with Google Calendar.
Some System Settings: Android also synchronizes some system settings—for example, Android stores saved passphrases for Wi-Fi networks and retrieves them on each Android device you use. It also backs up display settings, like brightness and timeout length.
Chrome Browser Data: If you use the Chrome browser, your bookmarks synchronize with your Chrome sync account.
Hangouts Chat Logs: Hangouts chat logs are stored in your Gmail account, assuming you haven’t disabled chat logging in Gmail.
Apps and Other Purchased Content: Any apps you have purchased (or installed) are linked with your Google account. When you set up a new Android device (or enter your account after resetting your Android device to factory default settings), Android will offer to automatically download and install the apps you previously had installed. You can also view apps you have previously installed in the Play Store, so you won’t forget which apps you have used (or purchased). Other content you purchase from Google Play is also tied to your Google account.
Some Third-Party App Data: Third-party apps often, but not always, sync their data with web services. If you have an app containing data important to you, be sure to check whether it syncs data online before wiping or getting rid of your phone.
Smart Lock Password Data: If you use Chrome on your computers and have Smart Lock for Passwords enabled, then your saved passwords will not only sync across Chrome on mobile, but also to some apps. For example, if you have your Netflix password saved in Smart Lock for Passwords, it will automatically be available in the app on your Android devices.
Photos: If you use Google Photos, then you could also back your photos up to Google’s servers. Unlike most of the others on this list, this feature has to be enabled before it just happens—fortunately, we’ve got you covered on setting that up, too. There’s also a “Photos Backup” entry in the Backup & reset menu on Android Nougat.

This isn’t an exhaustive list, but it should give you some idea of what’s backed up automatically. Google includes the most important things, so you don’t need to worry about losing your email, contacts, apps, saved Wi-Fi passphrases, or even most passwords.

What Google Doesn’t Back Up
Now that we’re covered what Google does automatically back up, let’s take a look at what they don’t:

SMS Messages: Android doesn’t back up your text messages by default. If having a copy of you text messages is important to you, follow our guide on backing up text messages to your Gmail account.
Google Authenticator Data: For security reasons, Google doesn’t synchronize your Google Authenticator codes online. If you wipe your Android device, you’ll lose your ability to perform two-factor authentication. You can still authenticate via SMS or a printed authentication code and then set up a new device with new Google Authenticator codes.
Custom Settings, Bluetooth Pairings, and Security Data: When you set up a new phone or factory reset yours, you’ll have to repair all of your Bluetooth accessories, set up specific settings (like which notifications to block, for example), and re-enter all of your security data, like lock screen passwords and fingerprints.
Make sure, before you reset or sell your phone, that you have any of these items backed up manually if you want them.

The Gray Area of Backups
Like with most things, there is a gray area here: things that can be backed up, but are also contingent on other variables—like developer integration in third-party apps, for example.

Game Progress: The Android Backup Service allows developers to back up their data and have it automatically restored in the future. However, you’ll find that some games may not take advantage of this feature. This feature is independent for each game, so do your research before you lose everything upon switching devices or performing a factory reset.
App Settings: Many other app settings aren’t backed up by default. Whether it’s preferences in an app you use or alarms you’ve created in the Clock app, they probably aren’t backed up online. Some third-party apps contain backup features that export the app’s data to a local file, which you must then keep track of manually (perhaps by uploading it to Google Drive). Again, this is going to be individual for each app.
Again, if there’s anything important you want to keep in one your apps, consult the app’s settings or documentation to figure out whether it backs up automatically or not. In some cases, you may have options to back up your data manually and bring it to your new device in the form of a file.


Most people shouldn’t have to back up their Android phone or tablet manually—Android’s default backup features should be more than good enough. However, some people may want to back up data that Android doesn’t back up by default: game saves, app settings, or whatever else.

If you want to back up and restore your Android data manually, you have a couple options:

Titanium Backup: Titanium Backup is the granddaddy of backup apps. You can use the free version of Titanium Backup, but for everything the app has to offer (and features you’ll likely want), you’ll have to shell out $6.00 for the Pro version of the app. It’s also not for everyone, as it does require root access. For a closer look at what Titanium Backup can do (and how to use it), head here—note that this post is a little dated looking, but all the functionality is still the same.
Android’s Hidden Local Backup Feature: Android has a built-in backup and restore feature that doesn’t require root, but this feature is hidden. You have to perform a backup or restore by connecting your device to your computer and running a command.
In short, Android already backs up the most important things by default, but be sure to enable Photo Uploads so you have a backup copy of your pictures! Advanced users may want to use a local backup tool, but most people shouldn’t need to, as it’s not that difficult to start from scratch after performing a factory reset.

Phones / Artificial Intelligence Technologies That Will Dominate In 2019 by phonedaddy: 11:32am On Sep 17, 2018
The implications of recent advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) have spurred heated debate globally. As science fiction starts to become reality, AI products are slowly infiltrating homes and workplaces. This is raising concerns about the potential detrimental effects of AI on the job market, or even about the dangers of an AI singularity, where sentient robots take over the world and destroy humans.

While these are all valid discussions, I believe that the focus of AI should not be just on cool home gadgets or on process optimisation and automation. Instead, AI can be used to fundamentally rethink how we solve the world’s problems.

Let’s have a look at ten A.I. technologies to watch out in 2019.

1. Natural Language Generation

Natural language generation is an AI sub-discipline that converts data into text, enabling computers to communicate ideas with perfect accuracy.

It is used in customer service to generate detailed reports and market summaries and is offered by various companies like Attivio, Automated Insights, Cambridge Semantics, Digital Reasoning or Lucidworks.

2. Speech recognition

Alexa is just one of the systems that can understand you. Every day, more and more systems are created that can transcribe human language, reaching hundreds of thousands through voice-response interactive systems and mobile apps.

3. Virtual Agents

A Virtual Agent is an computer generated, animated, artificial intelligence virtual character (usually with anthropomorphic appearance) that serves as an online customer service representative. It leads a intelligent conversation with users, responds to their questions and performs adequate non-verbal behavior.

Virtual agents are currently being used mostly for customer service and support and as smart home managers.
Some of the companies that provide virtual agents include Amazon, Apple, Artificial Solutions, Assist AI, Creative Virtual, Google, IBM, IPsoft, Microsoft and Satisfi.

4. Machine Learning Platforms

These days, computers can also easily learn, and they can be incredibly intelligent! Machine learning (ML) is a subdiscipline of computer science and a branch of AI. Its goal is to develop techniques that allow computers to learn.

By providing algorithms, APIs (application programming interface), development and training tools, big data, applications and other machines, ML platforms are gaining more and more traction every day.
They are currently mainly being used for prediction and classification.

Some of the companies selling ML platforms include Amazon, Fractal Analytics, Google, H2O.ai, Microsoft, SAS, Skytree and Adext.

5. AI-Optimized Hardware

AI technology makes hardware much friendlier.

How?

Through new graphic and central processing units and processing devices specifically designed and structured to execute AI-oriented tasks.

And if you haven’t seen them already, expect the imminent appearance and wide acceptance of AI-optimized silicon chips that can be inserted right into your portable devices and elsewhere.
You can get access to this technology through Alluviate, Cray, Google, IBM, Intel, and Nvidia.

6. Decision Management

Intelligent machines are capable of introducing rules and logic to AI systems so you can use them for initial setup/training, ongoing maintenance, and tuning.

Decision management has already been incorporated into a variety of corporate applications to assist and execute automated decision, making your business as profitable as possible.

Check out Advanced Systems Concepts, Informatica, Maana, Pegasystems, and UiPath for additional options.

7. Deep Learning Platforms

Deep learning platforms use a unique form of ML that involves artificial neural circuits with various abstraction layers that can mimic the brain, processing data and creating patterns for decision making.
It is currently mainly being used to recognize patterns and classify applications that are only compatible with large-scale data sets.

Deep Instinct, Ersatz Labs, Fluid AI, MathWorks, Peltarion, Saffron Technology and Sentient Technologies all have deep learning options worthy of exploring.

8. Biometrics

This technology can identify, measure and analyze human behavior and physical aspects of the body’s structure and form. Systems like this can be used for example during the interrogations to detect If suspect is lying or telling the truth. Biometric “lie detector” would be able to monitor much more than only heart rate, breathing or blood pressure.

9. Image Recognition

Image recognition is the process of identifying and detecting an object or feature in a digital image or video, and AI is increasingly being stacked on top of this technology to great effect. AI can search social media platforms for photos and compare them to a wide range of data sets to decide which ones are most relevant during image searches.

Image recognition technology can also be used to detect license plates, diagnose disease, analyze clients and their opinions and verify users based on their face.

Clarifai provides image recognition systems for customers to detect near-duplicates and find similar uncategorized images.

SenseTime is one of the leaders in this industry and develops face recognition technology that can be applied to payment and picture analysis for bank card verification and other applications. And GumGum’s mission is to unlock the value of images and videos produced across the web using AI technology.

10. Cyber Defense

Cyber defense is a computer network defense mechanism that focuses on preventing, detecting and providing timely responses to attacks or threats to infrastructure and information.
AI and ML are now being used to move cyberdefense into a new evolutionary phase in response to an increasingly hostile environment: Breach Level Index detected a total of over 2 billion breached records during 2017. Seventy-six percent of the records in the survey were lost accidentally, and 69% were an identity theft type of breach.

Recurrent neural networks, which are capable of processing sequences of inputs, can be used in combination with ML techniques to create supervised learning technologies, which uncover suspicious user activity and detect up to 85% of all cyber attacks.

Startups such as Darktrace, which pairs behavioral analytics with advanced mathematics to automatically detect abnormal behavior within organizations and Cylance, which applies AI algorithms to stop malware and mitigate damage from zero-day attacks, are both working in the area of AI-powered cyber defense.

Conclusion

Artificial intelligence is truly revolutionary. Its impact can be heard almost every section of our society. However, many experts think that it can lead to many job losses, increasing unemployment. Many prominent experts also believe that A.I. driven machines can be a threat to the whole human kind. For now, we can only focus on the positive aspects of A.I, and its role in changing our daily lives.

The smartphone battery is one of the irresistible feature you check out for when getting a smartphone. Without battery your phone basically won’t work, and no matter what features your phone has it will all be useless.

Why are smartphones with long-lasting battery capacity a necessity?You might find yourself in an environment with unsteady power supply, hence it is advisable for you to get a phone with a good battery capacity that can keep you going for a whole day with just a single charge.

When getting a smartphone always inquire about the battery capacity, it is important if you are a heavy smartphone user. Do not see big battery capacity phones as a burden, with the fast charge technology you don’t have to worry no more about charging for longer periods.

If you were to get a smartphone what battery capacity do you think is best?


1. 2500mah

2. 4000mah
