Unlike apps like Prisma, however, PORTRA features overlays which are built by melding various vibrant shades of watercolors, sketches and oil paintings. Despite my initial hesitations though, the filters produced surprisingly natural and apt outcomes without sacrificing the details of the original shot. One of the more admirable aspects of the app is how well it manages to add subtle shadows. PORTRA believes these filters essentially turn your pictures into artworks and in a lot of ways, that’s true....

When dual cameras were first introduced, they seem to be a feature only for high-end devices, but as they became more popular, the camera couple found its way to the mid-range segment of smartphones. And one of the super tall claims that almost all companies are making is, “DSLR-like” photography experience – and by that, they mean delivering bokeh (in simple English “blurred background”). Almost every phone with dual cameras is now being compared to a DSLR as if two sensors and a blurry background are all it takes to make a DSLR....

Not too many pointed out the phone that was at number five: it was a Xiaomi Redmi 5A, which sold 5.4 million units. Just below it at number six was the device that most would have expected to have been the iPhone’s biggest challenger – the Galaxy S9+ at 5.3 million units. Of course, there are some factors to be kept in mind here – the S9+ actually hit the market in the middle of the quarter (it was announced prior to MWC 2018, remember) whereas the Redmi 5A had been made available in India in early December 2017....

The Honor 8 Pro, which some say was launched in China as the V9 earlier this year, and comes with some formidable specs – a 5.7-inch Quad HD display, 6 GB RAM, 64 GB and 128 GB storage variants, dual 12.0-megapixel shooters, and a massive 4000 mAh battery. The phone is powered by Huawei’s own Kirin 960 processor, runs the company’s recently released EMUI interface, and comes with a slim, curvy design, although not with the dazzling mirror finish that marked the rather dishy Honor 8....

Let’s get this out of the way, darlings. A Huawei flagship could be coming to India soon – and I do not mean a flagship from its sister brand, Honor, but actually Huawei. The big etch itself! I kid you not. Am I excited? Of course, I am, even though some say it is bad for me at my age (the excitement, darlings). Those darlings at Huawei, sweeties. They are the second biggest phone brand in the world but in India, they have so far been limited to an Honor-able mention....

Therefore, it’s more crucial than ever that before investing in an Apple device, you research well and find the cheapest deal even if that means calling up that cousin you haven’t talked to in years.

For enabling it, fire up or download Chrome beta, head over to this link and under chrome home, select enabled....

This is a far cry from Q1 2017 exactly a year ago, where Samsung had been the leader with 25.9 percent of the market and Xiaomi had 13.1 percent. Of course, it also shows how dramatically Xiaomi has grown – Samsung has actually managed to increase its market share (26.2 percent from 25.9 percent in Q1 2017), but still finds itself in second place, as Xiaomi has more than doubled its share, going from 13....

The Jet Black iPhone 7 almost looks like glass, but is just the usual slab of Aluminum. It has gone through a “precision nine-step anodization and polishing process” to get the glossy finish.
