The Hybrid HR features analog dials with a circular low-power, always-on e-ink display on a stainless steel 42mm casing. Of course, being a hybrid, it lacks a touchscreen interface; user interaction is instead handled by three physical buttons on the right side. Along with the watch, Fossil is also offering a variety of luxurious straps which includes leather, silicon, and stainless steel. Unlike Fossil’s fourth and fifth generation smartwatches, the Hybrid HR doesn’t run on Google’s Wear OS, but an internally developed firmware which is unique to the watch....

There are several options available if you want to take advantage of the S Pen on your Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G. One, you can just get a stand-alone Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G’s S Pen which is currently going for RM 159 at Samsung Malaysia e-Store. However, having just the S Pen alone would increase the chances of misplacing it. If you are worried about that, then the Smart Clear View Cover or Silicone Cover with a built-in S Pen holder would be a much wiser choice....

According to Casio, the watch’s interchangeable bezels are being attached to its inner case via carbon fibre hooks instead of screws as per traditional 5600 models. This allows owners to change the case easily using the tool provided inside the package. In the same package, the company has also provided owners with another bezel in matte black as well as a matching band that has been etched with “3229” numerals on it which is a reference to the watch’s module number....

For context, Ghost of Tsushima: Legends takes the game into a mythical direction befitting the Legends tag. You play one of four classes of Ghosts: a Samurai, a Hunter, a Ronin and an Assassin. The Samurai is a self explanatory class – the not-quite tank and damage dealer equivalent, to use MMO comparisons. The Hunter is a fragile DPS character but can be difficult to use as you’ll have to aim with the DualShock 4 controller....

In Malaysia, the series will be made available in two different main models: the Aero 15-X9 and Aero 15-Y9. That being said, they generally looked no different from each other with the exception of their processors, graphics, and display options. For example, both models maxed out at Intel Core i9-8950HK but the only the Aero 15-X9 can be obtained with the lower end Core i7-8750H processor. Same goes for their 15....

The shape of Project Cielo is interesting, to say the least; at a glance, the system looks like three different-sized, knock-off Roombas, stacked on top of each other, with the base being the thickest of the lot. The problem here – as is the case with all concept designs – is that the product’s landing page doesn’t list down any specific details about Project Cielo’s hardware, save for the fact that the 5G antenna is hidden at the top of the PC and takes on the shape of a disc that transforms into a wing-shaped form when lifted....

According to the report, Google has told its business partners in the country that it will not be able to work with them on new Android phones. This comes after the Turkish competition board deeming the company’s changes to its contracts were not acceptable. Though it doesn’t look like the company is pulling out of the country without a fight. Turkish newspaper Haberturk reported that Google is also asking its partners to pressure the Turkish trade minister and head of the competition authority to overturn the ruling....

This time around, Google has chosen orangutan as the theme for its Doodle. Naturally, users would be ushered to the search results page for Hari Merdeka when they clicked on the Doodle at Google Malaysia’s home page. This is not the first time that Google has chosen an animal theme for its Merdeka Day’s Doodle. Previously in 2016, the company has come out with a Merdeka Day’s Doodle that featured Malayan tigers....

According to the UK-based AI company that was bought out by Google in 2014, it trained its AI by using a total of 91000 “de-identified” data of women residing both in the US and UK. Upon completion, the AI’s algorithm then tested 25000 scans in the UK and an additional 3000 scans from the US. Four images of each test were then put into its neural network with scores between zero to one....

Specifically, the vulnerability exploits a security flaw known as CVE-2019-5786. A memory management issue found in Chrome’s FileReader that allows hackers to inject and execute malicious code. To clarify, FileReader essentially allows web applications to read the contents of a user’s local file system. By targeting this process, hackers are able to fire up their malicious codes to bypass Chrome’s security and run commands beneath Windows OS. — Social Effluencer 😈 (@justinschuh) March 7, 2019 Justin Schuh, a Chrome security engineer addressed the issue on Twitter....

Google in its latest blog announcement today revealed that the company has brought in improvements to the visual clarity in its Maps app. With the new update, Maps will now have better visual details added into its display for users to have a clearer view of the surrounding areas. The company used a new color-mapping algorithm technique to provide a much in-depth visual improvement to the map display. Additionally, this update will now help users to have a better understanding of how a specific area would actually look like in person....

During their presentation, it’s quite obvious that the developers were pushing for more Android developers to adopt dark and night modes for their phones. As the reduced brightness of the mode would help smartphones and tablets immensely in their conservation of battery power. Google points out that, statistically, the energy draw from colours such as blue requires 25% more power than green or red in the standard RGB spectrum. In a way, that statistic kind of explains why scientists have warned against prolonged exposure to blue light....

The designer says that the redesign will feature a cleaner interface with larger and bolder text, and will also use colours to highlight important information. The screenshots below compares the upcoming redesign provided by the company with the current look of Google Search captured on my Samsung S20 Lite. As you can see, relevant and important information will occupy more of the screen space than before. In addition, segmented results will also take more width of the screen thanks to the introduction of a new edge-to-edge look and the removal of shadows....

Most interestingly, Play Games comes with data synchronization across all devices, which will enable you to carry over gaming progress (including Play Points) from your Android smartphone to PC, and vice versa. Of course, this is only possible if the games are linked to the same Google account. The inclusion of this particular feature is much appreciated, as most Android emulators lack progress-sharing capabilities. Much like Play Store, the new Play Games app will also serve as a platform for you to download games....
