Prevent the heart diseases by following these supplements and diets

Millions of Americans use nutritional supplements and a variety of diets to look after their heart health. But a great new study found that there was prominently little proof from accurate studies that supplements and some extensively recommended diets have the power to avoid heart disease.

The new study, published in the annals of internal medicine, reviewed data from hundreds of medical trials involving almost a million people and found that only a small number of 16 popular supplements and just one of the eight diets evaluated had any noticeable result on cardiovascular outcomes.

Folic acid, reduced omega-3 fatty acids, and salt diets omega-3 fatty acids, the kind found in fish oil, showed some results. But the evidence was fairly fragile. And at least one proved evidence of harm: Taking calcium with vitamin D improved the risk of stroke, possibly because it increases blood clotting and hardening of the arteries.

The result is likely to elicit controversy and continued debate. But the researchers said one clear message from their study was that the more than half of Americans,  who use nutritional supplements should be wary of claims that multivitamins and other supplements will progress their heart health.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro vs Vivo Z1 Pro: The Fiercest Mid-Range Price War Between Two Smartphones

The mid-range segment in the Indian smartphone industry has been the most competitive. It sees the latest innovation from the phone manufacturers and the race is to bring the latest design, latest specs and the best camera features packed in an affordable price tag. This year as well, two of the most popular brands in India have introduced some very competitive devices in this segment. The phones that we are talking about are the Vivo Z1 Pro which comes as part of Vivo’s new Z series and the other is the Redmi Note 7 Pro, which has been dominating the sub-Rs 15,000 price range for a few months now. But, now that the Vivo Z1 Pro is out, there is a need to compare the two phones to see which one fares as a better device.

xiaomi redmi note 7 pro vs vivo z1 pro: the fiercest mid-range price war between two smartphones

Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro vs Vivo Z1 Pro: Design and Display

When it comes to design, there is a clear verdict between the two phones, and it is that the Vivo Z1 Pro is the better looker of the two. The device is more likely to attract glances from the people around rather than the Redmi Note 7 Pro. Considering that the Vivo Z1 Pro features a plastic back whereas the Redmi Note 7 Pro is clad in glass. Even then, the shiny gradient panel on the Vivo phone manages to reflect a lot of light, thus becoming the more attractive one.

Also, on the display front, the Vivo Z1 Pro features a larger 6.53-inch display with Full HD+ resolution, whereas, in comparison, the Redmi Note 7 Pro features a 6.3-inch Full HD+ display. The notch on the Vivo Z1 Pro is the punch-hole style one thus being slightly less intrusive as compared to the waterdrop notch on the Redmi Note 7 Pro. This also factors in, while considering gaming on both of these phones as the Vivo Z1 Pro comes off as more suited one for games with its bigger display, less intrusive notch, and better sound quality. What’s more, is that the Vivo Z1 Pro also bundles a pair of earphones in the retail box even when it’s priced similar to the Redmi Note 7 Pro.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro vs Vivo Z1 Pro: Performance

The Redmi Note 7 Pro sports the Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 SoC which is, in reality, better than the Snapdragon 710. The processor has proven to be faster and better. Also, it competes against the Qualcomm Snapdragon 712 which comes as part of the chipset in the Vivo Z1 Pro. It is also worth noting that the Vivo Z1 Pro was the official phone for the PUBG Mobile Club Open, thus proving itself when it comes to gaming and hence leaving no doubts in the minds of the users. When it comes to performance, both the phones compete for head-on, and it is little for us to differentiate between them.

The two phones even have the same RAM and storage configuration variants. The two devices come in 4 GB/ 64 GB, with 6 GB / 64 GB and 6 GB/ 128 GB variants. Also, when it comes to the micro SD card, the Vivo Z1 Pro and the Redmi Note 7 Pro both support 256GB of expandable storage. The only difference pops up when we look at the card slots as the Redmi Note 7 Pro sports a hybrid card slot, whereas the Vivo Z1 Pro comes with a dedicated card slot, thus giving full freedom to the user in this regard.

Smartphone app spends in H1 2019 $39.7 billion

Smartphone app spending has indeed made a mark in H1 2019 and will definitely impact the consumers well. It has carved nicely for itself in the app world.

Smartphone apps are an indeed useful product in several ways and even in the new method of collecting data on smallholder farming systems in the digital age. Using smartphone apps and sensors may indeed help researchers to collect more accurate data. This also applies to Smartphone app spending in H1.

Nearly $40 billion was spent on smartphone apps in the first half of 2019. The figure takes into consideration both Apple’s App Store and Google Play downloads. The figure was 15% more than the same period last year implying new record in H2 and 2019 as a whole.
iOS users do alone spend $25.5 billion in the App Store for the period, which is a 13% increase compared to H1 2018. On the other side, their Android counterparts shelled out $14.2 billion across Google Play which is near 20% more than last year. One may wonder about Smartphone app spending in H1.

smartphone app spends in h1 2019 $39.7 billion

The highest-earning apps were no doubt in the gaming category which fetched $29.6 billion. Tencent’s Arena of Valor (also referred to as Honor of Kings) brought in $728 million across iOS and Android. Second place was for Fate/Grand Order with its $628 million revenues which are followed by Monster Strike which totaled $566 million. One can think of Smartphone app spending in H1.

In the non-gaming world, Tinder did amass the largest fortune with $497 million followed by Netflix with its $399 million and Tencent Video which brought in $278 million.
In terms of total app downloads, H1 2019 observed an increase of 11% despite a slowdown in iOS installs. 56.7 billion Apps were downloaded for the given period with Android accounting for nearly 42 billion of those while iOS installs were only 14.2 billion. What about Smartphone app spending in H1?

Apple’s platform still does generate almost 2 times more revenue despite having 1/3 of the installs.

The most downloaded apps across both platforms continued to be lead by WhatsApp, Messenger, and Facebook. TikTok and Instagram complete the top five.

All over the developing world, the spread of mobile- and smartphones has led to much demand for mobile services for rural populations. While the potentiality of mobile services to provide development opportunities for smallholder farmers are widely acknowledged, the potentials to make use of smartphone applications in order to collect data on smallholder farming systems are little explored. Yet, researchers studying farming systems do require good quality data. So far, data on smallholder farming systems is rather typically collected making use of household surveys.

Survey questions are rather prone to recall biases which can be substantial. This paper does assess whether a smartphone can be made use of to collect data in real time and thus increase the accuracy of socioeconomic as well as agronomic data collection. The focus is on a smartphone application that was developed for this purpose. One makes use of this application to analyze the effects of agricultural mechanization on intra-household time-use as well as nutrition in rural Zambia.

The early, descriptive results do shed interesting light on the effects of mechanization, the contribution of is primarily methodological. The study does highlight the potentials of making use of smartphone applications in order to collect socio-economic and agronomic data on smallholder-farming systems, potentially in real time. It also does suggest ways to combine data recorded by respondents with built-in sensors of smartphones and external sensors. This brings forth fascinating new pathways for researchers in the digital age.

The Samsung Galaxy Fold saga Kickstart bad!

Samsung Galaxy Fold has indeed drawn much attention of the consumer despite controversies about its arrival time. Samsung always makes a mark on the technology world.

Samsung surprised the tech world when it unveiled its first foldable smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Fold, on February 20th, 2019. This announcement did take place during the crowded Samsung Unpacked event which also featured the Galaxy S10 family. This does involve Samsung Galaxy Fold saga. The Galaxy Fold really made a remarkable impact on account of the Galaxy S10, but that does not surprise a person as the Galaxy S10 is more of Samsung making it up with its innovations. The Galaxy Fold does hope to be the future of mobile technology; a phone that can indeed transform into a tablet.

Unfortunately, the ensuing drama in the months since the Galaxy Fold teaser has rather squashed a lot of the hype. Although a new report does suggest the Galaxy Fold that may finally be ready for launch. Samsung Galaxy Fold saga is indeed interesting. The customers, who are rather actually lining up to shell out thousands of dollars, have heard nothing from Samsung.

the samsung galaxy fold saga kickstart bad!

Like many of the failed Kickstarter, the Galaxy Fold launch delay has had a negative impact on the product. With money on the line, people have been left out in the cold waiting for updates on a product that Samsung overpromised and also under delivered.

Most people do look up to the two-story display and prefer to purchase it. This was so until the price was announced. It turned out to be an expensive affair. One was awaiting its arrival.

It was forwarded to April 12th:

The day pre-registration for the Galaxy Fold opened. Those who happen to decide over those past 51 days that they wanted to pre-order the product could actually just register to pre-order. Then on April 14th, pre-orders actually opened up. Samsung did run out of inventory for pre-orders rather quickly. There was more focus on the Galaxy Fold than even Samsung expected.

It was expected that April 15th, the day a bunch of YouTubers and other tech blogs did access to the Galaxy Fold. Essentially, everyone loved the Fold. People watched almost every video and read every article about the Fold. There were no doubt very few negative things these YouTubers and journalists had said about it. This is indicative of
what Samsung Galaxy Fold saga is all about.

Unfortunately, the glowing reviews did only last for 2 days. On April 17th, multiple journalists did report that their Galaxy Folds were broken. A total of 5 reported cases hit the Internet on the same day. This causes much panic among those Fold pre-orderers. What would Samsung do about it?

Samsung is indeed faced with much of challenge and needs to work upon ensuring that it makes a good kickstart in its ventures. Galaxy Folds was much awaited upon and consumers were expecting its arrival on the technology scene. Much focus has been on it and one must realize that much is expected from Samsung in terms of its product arrival and quality. There must not any sort of disappointment among consumers on both these fronts.

Canon Stabs Tradition in the Back With Camera That Supports Vertical Video

Canon Stabs Tradition in the Back With Camera That Supports Vertical Video

Canon’s G7 X line has long been a favorite of photographers who wanted a travel-friendly camera that could still capture high-quality images. But with the rise of smartphones and the decline of point-and-shoots, Canon began pushing its compact cameras towards vloggers, who I’ve seen use cameras like the G7 X and Sony’s RX100 line as a backup or more portable alternative to a big mirrorless or DSLR cam. After all, when you’re attaching a camera to a gimbal or the end of a GorillaPod, every extra bit of lightness make a camera easier to handle.

So for the new G7 XIII, it seems the influencers have influenced Canon because one of the camera’s new standout features is the ability to record vertical videos without rotating the footage in post natively. Using a new built-in gyro, the G7 X III can determine the camera’s orientation and then embed that info into a clip’s metadata, which means filming vertical videos for your Instagram stories on the G7 XIII is as simple as turning the camera sideways.

canon stabs tradition in the back with camera that supports vertical video

And if that’s enough not to excite attendees of VidCon 2019—the vlogger convention where the $750 G7 X is making its official debut—Canon also gave the camera the ability to live stream video directly to YouTube over wifi via the company’s Image Gateway software. The G7 X III also comes with a built-in microphone jack for vloggers who aren’t satisfied with the camera’s onboard audio, and a 3-inch touchscreen that can flip up 180-degree so that vloggers can check their composition while they’re filming themselves.

As for the G7 X III’s specs, the camera features a new 1-inch 20-MP stacked CMOS sensor (a first for Canon) that allows the camera to hit RAW burst rates of up to 30 frames per second using its electronic shutter, with a max shutter speed of 1/25,600th of a second. (If you choose to use the camera’s mechanical shutter, burst capture slows down to 8 FPS.)
Meanwhile, on the video side, the G7 XIII supports 4K video recording at up to 30 FPS or full HD at up to 120 FPS. In front, the G7 XIII comes with an 8.8 to 36.8mm f/1.8 to 2.8 lenses with a 4.2X optical zoom, along with a handy pop-up flash.

Other improvements include a new panorama mode that allows you to pan across a landscape while holding the shutter button instead of taking multiple still frames and then asking the camera to stitch them together, along with a new HDR movie mode, USB-C charging, and the focus bracketing mode Canon debuted on the EOS-RP.

Finally, in case the G7 XIII isn’t quite what you’re looking for, Canon is also introducing the refreshed $900 G5 X II which features the same 20-MP sensor but with a slightly longer 5x optical zoom and a pop-up electronic viewfinder jammed next to camera’s pop-up flash.
While I might sound salty about Canon bringing support for vertical videos over to “real” cameras from the smartphone world, I have to admit that at this point, it’s clear vertical videos are never going away. And by making it easier to record vertical videos, hopefully, there won’t be quite as many potato-quality clips that get uploaded to the Instagram, YouTube or any of the other social media platforms out there. Both cameras are scheduled to be available sometime in early August.

Samsung patent reveals body composition feature may come to future Galaxy Watch Active

Samsung patent reveals body composition feature may come to future Galaxy Watch Active

On Monday, the US Patent and Trademark Office released a patent for Samsung originally filed back in 2015. The patent outlines a feature integrated into a smart watch’s strap that would be able to measure body composition. With this, a user could measure body fat percentage using some future model of the Galaxy Watch or Watch Active.

A body composition device uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) which calculates a ratio between fat and moisture by using a low-power AC current and analyze the electrical resistance between adipose tissues and non-adipose tissues.

samsung patent reveals body composition feature may come to future galaxy watch active

According to the drawings in the patent. There are two electrodes on the inside of the band which comes in contact with the wearer’s wrist while two other electrodes sit on the outside of the band where the user places two fingers.

Wearables have inadvertently increased interest and awareness in health over the years and a wearable that could measure body composition could be beneficial to track one’s progress over time.

Currently, body composition measured by BIA is done with bulkier equipment. Integrating this kind of technology into a Samsung smartwatch could certainly be as big of a breakthrough as when Apple introduced the Apple Watch Series 4 with support for ECG (electrocardiogram)

A patent doesn’t always guarantee the invention will go into mass production but given the fierce competition between Apple and Samsung wearables, we imagine Samsung does not want to miss out on this opportunity to put the technology in a future version of the Galaxy Watch.

Google Pixel 4 XL Leak-Based Renders Show Large Bezels

Google Pixel 4 XL Leak-Based Renders Show Large Bezels

Google recently gave us an early look at the Pixel 4’s design, revealing a square camera module at the back and the departure from the signature dual-tone pattern. In case you were wondering what its larger sibling – the Pixel 4 XL – might look like, there is some good news. Leak-based 5K renders and a 360-degree video of the Pixel 4 XL have surfaced online, and they show the phone flaunting a square camera module with triple rear cameras and a glossy finish. On the front, there are dual cameras hidden by a thick notch.

The alleged Pixel 4 XL renders, which come courtesy of OnLeaks in collaboration with PriceBaba, show Google’s upcoming flagship flaunting a square camera module at the back, just like the one on the Pixel 4’s official render. One of the key highlights of the leaked renders are the triple rear cameras arranged in a diamond-like pattern with the LED flash sitting at the bottom. One of the sensors in the triple rear camera setup is tipped to be a 16-megapixel telephoto lens.

The dual-tone design that has been a mainstay on all Pixel phones released so far has gone, paving the way for a glossy rear finish. The phone’s rear panel is reportedly made out of glass. The 3.5mm headphone jack is again missing.

The lack of a physical fingerprint sensor suggests Google might finally add an in-display fingerprint sensor to its phones, starting with the Pixel 4 XL. But the biggest Pixel 4 XL design surprise is on the front, and to put it simply, it is not a good one.

Google has ditched the notch and has gone back to using a thick notch to house the dual front-facing cameras, earpiece, and two other sensors. One of them is tipped to be an IR sensor that might be used for face unlock. The chin at the bottom is considerably thinner than the one on its predecessor but still thicker than today’s flagship standards.

The resolution and aspect ratio of the Pixel 4 XL’s display is not known, but it is tipped to be a 6.25-inch panel. Another disappointment is the lack of front-firing speakers, as they have now been moved to the bottom edge flanking the USB Type-C port on either side. The dimensions of the Pixel 4 XL are tipped to be 160.4×75.2×8.2mm, which means the upcoming Pixel will be taller and thicker than the Pixel 3 XL.

The latest Pixel 4 XL leak also claims that the phone will house a few other sensors on the front, sitting on the right side of the earpiece. The sensors in question might be Soli Radar components to bring hands-free navigation gesture support or to create a Face ID-like authentication system.

The Pixel 4 XL is tipped to come in a Mint Green color option, alongside a white and black variant as well. The phone is tipped to pack the Snapdragon 855 SoC paired with up to 6GB of RAM, an upgrade from the 4GB RAM inside its predecessor.
