aero glass theme activated on Windows Vista or Windows 7 then you must have noticed that Chrome window shows the aero glass frame. This is the default behavior of the browser and since usage of aero theme is so common, people are actually unaware of what Chrome’s built-in classic frame looks like. Also consider the other way round. You see the classic frame while you have aero glass effect activated on your machine....

It’s not hard to find a comparison online between the AirPods and the BeatsX because they’re similar in price — $149 for the BeatsX. But consider this: the top-tier wireless earphones from Beats are just 40 bucks more than the AirPods. Are they worth the upgrade? W1 Chip Both the AirPods and PowerBeats3 include Apple’s W1 chip inside, just like the new Beats Solo3. This dramatically improves the Bluetooth connectivity in a variety of ways....

This past Wednesday, Sept. 7, the day I’d been waiting for finally arrived. Apple announced Apple Watch Series 2 complete with several new features. Notably, Series 2 comes with GPS, decent water resistance, new Nike models, a new ceramic Apple Watch edition, a brighter display and a new dual-core processor. To my surprise, these new features come at a cost. The Apple Watch Series 2 starts at $369 for the 38 mm model and $399 for the 42 mm model....

But before that, Specs That Matter Design and Function One of the Wyze Lock’s primary highlights is that it fits over your door’s existing locks, thus taking away the hassle of replacing the entire unit. Secondly, it doesn’t come with any fingerprint reader or a keypad....

However, the prices of the Aura Carver and the Nixplay Smart Photo are quite different, and hence it brings us to an important question—which digital picture frame is better? Well, that is what we will find in this post today, as we compare the Aura Carver against the Nixplay Smart Photo frame and see which is the better fit for your needs....

Tried setting up themes and configuring automatic wallpaper change. But then the stock got over and I did not want to start downloading stuff. It was then that I discovered Pulse and now I see a different wallpaper whenever I minimize all the windows to show desktop. Pulse is a Windows application that downloads wallpapers automatically from depots like Wallbase, Google, National Geographic (NatGeo) and more. Having them set to download automatically is optional, but, where’s the fun without doing it....

However, Endgame is more than just the sequel to Infinity War. It is also a celebration of Marvel Studios’ 10-year tryst with the cinema world. With half of the living beings wiped out from the face of the universe and a majority of the superheroes fading away to oblivion, the first trailer was dark and bleak, with no major reveals about the outcome. Though it’s unlikely that you missed, here’s a chance to watch the first trailer of Avengers Endgame again....

The Sennheiser Momentum 2 wireless earphones bundle a sophisticated carry case and are supposed to be a step above the original Momentum earphones. However, when you compare both wireless earphones, there is a significant price difference between the two. And that brings us to the original question—is it worth spending on the Sennheiser Momentum 2 over the new Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 Plus earphones. More importantly, does the Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 Plus deliver better audio than the ones by Sennheiser....

Over the years, OnePlus has been relying on the parent company for design inspiration and manufacturing facilities. If you look at premium offerings by both brands, you will see both the devices are almost identical on paper with a close resemblance in physical appearance. The only distinguishing factor between Oppo Reno and OnePlus X series is software experience. OnePlus is matching steps with Google to offer close to stock Android experience with few useful additions....

With iOS 7, though, there is a glitch that allows you to have folders within folders, which in turn allows you to have an incredible number of apps within just a single folder and without messing up how you arrange your apps. What’s interesting is that this glitch has been present since the early betas of iOS 7, and Apple hasn’t removed it yet, which hopefully means that it won’t remove it in the future either....

It’s not all that bad though. While Lollipop is visually pleasing, the underlying principles of the new design standard called Material Design are quite backwards compatible. So while you might not be able to bask in the glory of the smoothest notification drawer transition that ever existed, you can use apps that kind of look like Lollipop apps. You won’t get all the jolly good transition effects but you will get the looks....

Many sites pointed to use Feedly. So I started using it. After using it for some time my friend suggested me to use a personalized News Reader called Flipboard. I downloaded it and I loved it. I’m STILL using it. But, I believe change is essential to live a happy life. So, I thought let’s get back to Feedly. I logged into Feedly with my Google account and the feeds were the same as before....

A simple power recycle solves most of the Windows errors, but this was not one of them.

For people who constantly find themselves in fullscreen apps like games and YouTube videos, this is going to be immensely useful. And the use case can extend even further. Even if you’re in an app that has the status bar visible, once the notification preview is gone, it’s gone. You need to drag down from the status bar to access it. Having notifications, especially ones from chat clients or email show heads up during an app can remove a lot of friction....

As a fellow practitioner of wordcraft witchery, I find the idea of a computer detached from the internet and all its perils, a machine just for writing, incredibly romantic. My dad even owns an early 90s DOS based PC and yes it still works (sometimes). But I’d rather not type on that ugly and painful looking keyboard just to satisfy my inner romantic. So I thought, if the feeling is what I’m after, I can easily recreate the effect right on my MacBook and it wouldn’t even be that hard....
