Qualcomm barely just came up with a sequel to the Snapdragon 670 CPU and there is already a company willing to put it into its new phone. The lucky device in question is V15 PRO by Vivo, which is supposed to officially come out on February 20th. Leaked benchmark of this device shows us that its new CPU is quite a monster – not as grand as those put into flagships, but certainly powerful enough for a common user. As for the rest of phone’s specs, here they are:– 6,59′ Super AMOLED display, 1080 × 2316p,– 6GB RAM, 128GB ROM,– triple main camera, 48mpx + ...

Bitcoin is currently more expensive to gain than it is worth
According to a report from JPMorgan Chase analysts, it currently costs a bit over 4000 dollars to make one bitcoin. This would be fine, if not for the fact that, after being made, such bitcoin is only worth 3800 dollars – not the best deal out there. At the moment it is only worth mining bitcoins in countries that have special deals with electric power distributors, e.g. China. It also turns out that the bitcoin’s exchange rate is falling; this happens, though, and should probably not be a cause of ...
Lenovo is working on a new tablet
This new model, one Tab V7, will be a rather atypical one. As shown on the render above, the 7′ display makes it closer to a large smartphone than a regular tablet. Its proportions will probably also be different than the regular 16;9; another difference. What is more is that very few tablets currently available on the market have rounded corners like the Tab V7 will. As for its specs, all we know is that it will come with 4 GB RAM, 32 or 64 GB ROM, camera, selfie shooter and Android 9 Pie OS. The Tab V7 will NOT have fingerprint scanner, though. Oh well.Currently there is no ...

YouTube considers removing thumbs down
It is in YouTube’s interest that the videos uploaded in it are popular. What makes videos less popular? Negative notes, largely. That is why, though of course no one will admit it officially, YT plans on removing thumbs down in an unforseen future. Google also has other, similiar ideas: remove the thumb down by default but leave option of seeing it, leave the thumbs down but hiding the counter (useless) and others.What do you think? Majority of the Internet seems to believe that this would be simply a cheap way to make YouTube’s life easier at the expense of viewer’s ...
Scientists have counted how much time are we spending online. It is quite a lot
Researchers from Hootsuite and We Are Social have figured out that the average human being spends roughly 6 hours and 27 minutes every day online in one form or another.

A guy illegally recorded a game video, YouTube took it down, he published it on Pornhub instead
O tempora o mores… Kingdom Hearts 3, a rather atypical (for European standards at least) anime-esque action game with Disney characters included, has been released a few days ago. A few days before that, though, one wisecrack on the Internet has published a less-than-legal gameplay video of it on YouTube. YT quickly took it down, though, as the material in the video infringed Square Enix’, game’s creators, copyrights. Thusly denied player decided that he or she will publish their video one way or another and… took it to Pornhub instead. Technically, Pornhub follows ...
