| Note 10's Exynos 9825 vs Snapdragon 855+ vs S10's 9820 benchmark comparison - PhoneArena Posted: 07 Aug 2019 06:55 AM PDT Samsung just detailed the last piece in the Note 10 and 10+ chipset puzzle - its next-gen Exynos 9825 processor. Samsung already has the Exynos 9820 in the Galaxy S10 family but it is an odd 8nm bird that is slightly inferior to the Snapdragon 855 in the US versions of the phone that are made with the first-gen 7nm process. The opposite used to be a familiar refrain for years - the US gets a Snapdragon-equipped Galaxy S line flagship, because... Qualcomm patents, but also Verizon and Sprint's legacy CDMA voice networks. The rest of the world, however, usually basked in the battery life efficiency coming with Samsung's homebrew Exynos line of processors, and often the added benefit of a better audio processor. This year, however, is different. Samsung didn't have enough yield from its revolutionary second-gen 7nm process made with the superior Extreme Ultra Violet (EUV) lithography to satisfy the Galaxy S10 demand, so it went with the middle ground 8nm Exynos 9820 abroad that is still made with the old fine metal mask process. This showed, both in benchmarks and in real world performance, especially when it comes to battery life, graphics and camera performance. With the Note 10, however, the tables are getting turned once again. The Exynos 9825 is the first mass-produced mobile chipset that is made with the new second-gen 7nm method, and it already scored impressive benchmarks. Apple's A13 is expected to land TSMC's 7nm EUV node in the fall, and the real fun will start, but for now, the Exynos 9825 should be wiping the floor with every other Android out there. This is why we are pitting the Note 10 and Galaxy S10 system chips against their rivals from the second half of 2019, knowing full well that these are the processors which will be tiding us over at least until the spring. Galaxy Note 10's Exynos 9825 vs 9820 vs Snapdragon 855+ benchmarksWe are comparing the currently known Snapdragon 855+ and 9825 specs and features below for your viewing pleasure. For reference, we are starting with the current Snapdragon 855 that is in most 2019 Android flagships already.
The advanced 7nm EUV process of Samsung is finally ready for cost-effective mass production, and we can't wait for the first official benchmarks to trickle down the pipe. You can preview the boost to expect with Snapdragon 855+ and 9825 below, derived directly from the Geekbench database - the 855+ is on the ROG Phone 2 gaming handset, and the 9825 is on a pre-production Note 10, and both chipsets are killing it.

| Ninja's first Mixer host almost brings small streamer to tears - Dexerto Posted: 07 Aug 2019 04:02 AM PDT Popular Fortnite star Tyler 'Ninja' Blevins has already positively impacted the community since his move to Mixer, after hosting one of his fellow streamers on the platform. Advertisement Ninja's move away from the popular streaming site Twitch was initially met with some major concerns from his audience, when he announced that he would be livestreaming exclusively on Microsoft's platform, Mixer. However, Blevins quickly proved any doubters wrong by amassing over 1 million subscribers on August 6 (although it should be noted that Mixer is giving out free subscriptions for Ninja's channel for the first two months), only a week after announcing his switch, and began giving back to other streamers on the site with by hosting smaller channels.  Ninja / Mixer Ninja announced that he would be exclusively streaming from Mixer on August 1. Advertisement After Ninja's stream on August 5, he decided to build up one of his fellow Mixer streamers, SoloQJokerr, by sending all of his viewers towards his channel with a massive raid. SoloQJokerr was in an intense battle with a BRUTE mech when the host came through, completely unaware that thousands of new viewers were now watching him getting frustrated with Fortnite's latest addition. However, his day was instantly made better as he was left speechless when realizing who had just hosted him, turning to look at his chat which was spamming him with Ninja's name, "Holy jeez Louise. I have no words." Advertisement After SoloQJokerr had finished with the stream he thanked Ninja and his community for their support, claiming it was the best and craziest day of his life to be Ninja's first host on Mixer. "I had to turn off alerts as it was an endless wave of over 1.5k instant follows," the streamer added, "almost teared up and extremely grateful for this man."
Advertisement After his big announcement, Ninja has been full of praise for his new streaming platform of choice, claiming that streaming on Mixer makes him feel "like a little kid again." It is no surprise that the streamer has built himself such a large community through streaming as he continued to share his success with others through kind gestures such as this one. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Scam heart rate app is back in the App Store, trying to steal $85/year - 9to5Mac Posted: 07 Aug 2019 05:35 AM PDT A scam heart rate app that tried to con iPhone users out of $89/year is now back in the App Store under a new name, some eight months after Apple removed the original version. The app specifically targets people who own iPhones with Touch ID…
  NordVPNWhat the app does is ask users to place their finger on the Home button, supposedly to take a heart-beat reading. In reality, the app dims the display brightness its minimum to hide the content — which is actually Apple's dialogue requesting authorization for a recurring in-app purchase. If users place a registered Touch ID finger on the Home button, that completes the purchase. Apple removed the app in November of last year following our report, but Brazil's Mac Magazine reports that it has now returned.
The in-app purchase is now for 340 Brazilian Reais, which is equivalent to around US$85. As before, the app is targeting Portuguese speakers. The scam heart rate app isn't the only one to have made it into the iOS App Store, despite Apple's review process. A report published on Friday identified more than 2,000 examples. Some of these apps have been making hundreds of thousands of dollars. Just two apps created by the same Chinese group were found to have made around $400k in June alone.
The idea that Apple would be willing to allow scam apps to get a cut is, of course, absurd. The reality is that the app review process is a manual one, and prone to human error. Scammers will usually submit an innocuous app and then update it with rogue code after approval. Although Apple reviews updates too, there is a general belief that this review is less thorough than for a new app. The report does show that even in a curated app store, there are still risks — especially as it's easy for scammers to buy fake 5-star reviews. A report way back in 2014 described how even legitimate apps can scam their way into the top of the app charts.  Photo: Shutterstock |
