The Elephone "Vowney" has a QHD display and 3GB of RAM for $299 and it runs Windows 10 Mobile

Image
For a number of quite sound marketing reasons Windows-powered mobile phones rarely come near to the hardware in current Android powerhouses, but with the introduction of Windows 10 and sophisticated features like Continuum, this is set to quickly change. Higher-end offers, like the Acer Jade Primo are starting to appear and it naturally, it was a matter of time before China OEM's enter the market as well. The latest such offer comes courtesy of Elephone. Its "Vowney" model was first spotted a few months ago and if rumors are true, it does promise to dual-boot Android and Windows 10 on quite a capable hardware platform. There are actually two versions of the "Volney" (which, by the way is still a working title). One includes an octa-core Mediatek MT6795 SoC and boots only Android, while the other runs on a quad-core Intel CPU and can dual-boot both platforms. The first also has a 20.7MP camera and a 3800 mAh battery. In the Intel model, the came...

MSI GS60 Ghost Gaming Laptop Review

Image
The beast within.  The idea behind gaming laptops can be difficult to understand. They're vastly underpowered when compared to traditional desktops, they aren't upgradable, and they can be very expensive. But for those who travel a lot, whether it be for work, school, or pleasure, relying on a giant, stationary machine for gaming isn't exactly convenient. Thankfully, there are companies like MSI and Razer that want to make portable PC gaming as pain-free as possible by creating compact notebooks with high-powered internals. The GS60 Ghost is MSI's latest attempt at packing a ton of power into a thin and lightweight laptop. With the help of a brand new Nvidia GeForce GTX 800M series GPU and Intel's Haswell processor, the GS60 certainly packs a punch, but unfortunately the experience doesn't spread to the rest of the machine. When it comes to gaming, MSI's new 15.6-inch laptop pumps out graphically-intense titles with ease. Equipped with...

Samsung has detailed its October security patch

Image
Releasing proper, extensive and comprehensive changelogs seems to be a dying practice nowadays. Don't believe us? Well, just open up the Play Store or App Store page for a few of your favorite apps and enjoy informative statements such as "bugs fixes" and "added new features". The point is that some still take documentation seriously and this should frankly always be the case when it comes to security patches. In keeping with this spirit, Samsung has published a detailed rundown of its October security patch. If you are interested, definitely check it out at the source link. As for a quick rundown, it covers a total of 68 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE), some of which in the Android OS itself and others related to the company's own devices. An interesting highlight includes what is said to be a possible security weakness in the iris scanner matching algorithm for the Galaxy Note7. The latter could have potentially caused...
