Samsung has confirmed a date and time for its next Galaxy Unpacked event in February.

Samsung is expected to announce the 2022 Galaxy S phone series, which will likely be called the Galaxy S22.

TM Roh, Samsung’s president and head of its mobile experience business, first announced the event in a blog post a few weeks ago. He mentioned that the company plans to introduce “the most noteworthy S series device we’ve ever created”. The post was littered with references to the Galaxy Note series, hinting it will be a focus during Samsung’s event.

The Event Details

Samsung will hold the next Galaxy Unpacked on Wednesday 9 February 2022 at 10am ET. Here are the different times around the globe.

San Francisco – 07:00 PDT
New York – 10:00 EDT
London – 15:00 BST
Berlin – 16:00 CEST
New Delhi – 19:30 IST
Tokyo – 23:00 JST
Sydney – 01:00 AEDT 10 February

Where To Watch

Samsung will be hosting a live stream for its viewers. Meanwhile, the event will also be available on the official Samsung website. Samsung’s YouTube page will supposedly premiere the livestream too as they have been doing that in previous years.

Sometimes the only way forward is to break the rules that hold us back. Break through the night and experience the epic standard at #SamsungUnpacked on February 9, 2022.

Which iPhones Led To Apple’s Greatest Revenues And Profits?

By

Jan 28, 2022

It’s been 15 years since Apple iPhones have been in the market and this year has been one of their wildest, most successful yet. This year marked the tech giant’s strongest sales ever and made them become the first company to ever hit trillions on the stock market. Here’s the phone that’s been making it all happen:

iPhone 13’s Charisma

iPhone 13 is the one that pushed the company’s greatest sales yet. Despite coronavirus and the tumultuous supply chains issue, the phone has everyone wrapped around their finger. Apple CEO noted that iPhone 13 held top market-share spots around the world. This includes the US and Australia, China, and even the UK.

The team felt from the very start this iPhone was going to be “fundamentally transformative.” iPhone 13’s sales have pushed past all previous company records and sale has increased for iPhones by a strong 9%. The phones range from the $699 iPhone 13 Mini to the $1,099 iPhone 13 Pro Max but the price tag is not a factor. Total sales for them have amounted to $71.6 billion.

Success on The Stock Market

Apple’s stock has also been on the up and up. It rose more than 3%, to $163.73 per share, before its regular closing of the day. Not too long ago, investors of Apple pushed the company’s shares above $3 trillion. This made Apple Inc. the very first company to have hit this market cap value in all of the stock market’s history.

The company’s revenue this year increased to $123.94 billion, moving up from double digits entirely.

It’s Everything Basically

However, it’d be unfair to say iPhone has been stealing the sunshine. The company has reported that the sales of its Mac computers were also very strong and profitable. They rose more than 25%, to nearly $10.9 billion, because of the redesigned MacBook Pro laptops. Apple has also added that this new demand is for the new M1 chip. The chip was meant to replace the microprocessing brains that Apple used to rely on from Intel. It’s been responsible for greater efficiency and smoother control. As a result, “customer satisfaction is off the charts.”

Jan 28, 2022

Islamabad – January 27, 2022: Etisalat has been ranked as the world’s strongest telecom brand and is the first in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region to achieve this milestone recognition by Brand Finance, the world’s leading brand valuation authority.

With a telecom portfolio of well over US$ 12.5 billion, Etisalat not only retained its AAA brand rating but also its position in MEA as the strongest brand across all categories and the most valuable brand portfolio.

Committed to customer value creation

Eng. Hatem Dowidar, CEO, Etisalat Group, said: “To be recognised as the world’s strongest telecom brand and as the most valuable telecom brand portfolio in MEA underline the success of our strategic initiatives to build a robust telecom infrastructure that creates added value for our customers wherever we serve. With our relentless focus on being customer-centric, we continue to push our horizons by investing in next generation technology that enhance our service offering and help shape the digital future.”

He added: “In this digital-first era, our focus is to be agile to meet the evolving requirements of our customers and deliver relevant and flexible services. Since our inception in 1976, we have been led by a vision to create a world-class telecom infrastructure that is central to economic progress.”

Astute brand leadership

Brand Finance also named Eng. Hatem Dowidar to the Elite List of Brand Guardians globally, jumping 4 places compared to last year’s ranking. This recognises the ground-breaking initiatives that he launched since he joined Etisalat in September 2015, which played a key role in propelling Etisalat’s business growth. Assuming the role of Group CEO in 2020, he stewarded the company’s growth through the fast-changing telecom and technology landscape following the COVID-19 pandemic. His astute brand stewardship served as the foundation for enhancing Etisalat’s brand reputation as well as employee engagement.

David Haigh, Chairman and CEO, Brand Finance, said: “Guided by the vision to ‘drive the digital future to empower societies’, Etisalat is the world’s strongest telecoms brand of 2022, as well as retaining its status as the strongest brand in the Middle East and Africa for the second consecutive year. Etisalat’s brand focuses on togetherness and plays its part by providing a first-class telecoms infrastructure across its footprint. The exceptional rollout of 5G technology has also meant that the Etisalat Group’s portfolio of brands is the most valuable amongst telecoms organisations in the Middle East.”

Attributing the success to his team at Etisalat, Dowidar added: “Our significant brand value growth is the result of the contributions and dedication of our employees across all the markets where we operate. Alongside our partners, they are the cornerstones of our efforts to be a digital-first company that is future-ready, while upholding our vision to empower societies, and turn challenges into opportunities.”

Path-breaking achievements

Etisalat’s robust fibre-optic infrastructure enhances the customer experiences across all business operations. Etisalat raised the benchmark as the world’s fastest network by delivering the best 5G experience at Expo 2020 Dubai as its official telecommunication and digital services partner, surpassing the expectations of millions of visitors. Etisalat has built a dedicated network for Expo 2020, which is the first 5G commercial site in MENA with more than 8,000 Wi-Fi access points, 8,500 mobile access points, and 700 km of fibre-optic cable.

Etisalat has leveraged its 46 years of telecoms experience and its investment in telecom infrastructure to enable the progress of the people and business alike, in addition to supporting vital sectors such as healthcare and education, especially following the pandemic.

Empowering the digital future

As the telecom sector continues to evolve at breakneck speed, Dowidar is focused on strengthening Etisalat’s strategic role in empowering the communities it serves in global markets. “Our proven ability to deliver seamless connectivity is our differentiating strength. We are fully equipped to unlock the potential of digital technologies to drive digital transformation at all levels – from government to business to individuals. Our recognition as the world’s leading telecom brand further fuels our ambition to expand to new geographies and build innovative partnerships, underpinning Etisalat as a brand that makes a positive difference.”

Samsung Unveils New Smart Fingerprint Security IC For Biometric Payment Cards

Jan 27, 2022

Hnet.com-image — Image source: Classroom tv

Samsung has unveiled a new smart All-in-One fingerprint security IC for biometric payment cards. While combining a secure element and a secure processor in a single chip.

This provides enhanced security over current solutions including Samsung’s existing solutions and this is the industry’s first all-in-one security chip.

Samsung Electronics is targeting the biometric card market with the debut of a new integrated circuit (IC) that combines a Secure Element and a Secure Processor with a built-in fingerprint sensor. The IC will serve as an all-in-one security solution that can support faster processing speeds compared to mixed solutions that need to combine several different chips to perform the same function.

“S3B512C combines a fingerprint sensor, Secure Element (SE), and Secure Processor, adding an extra layer of authentication and security in payment cards. The S3B512C is primarily designed for payment cards. However, it can also be used in cards that require highly secured authentications such as student or employee identification, membership or building access,” said Kenny Han, Vice President of System LSI Marketing at Samsung Electronics.

Encryption And Safety

The chip contains three central functions. This can help lower the number of chips card manufacturers need to develop biometric payment cards. Moreover, the new security IC makes biometric payment cards faster and more secure. With biometric authentication, there’s no need for users to enter a PIN. Meanwhile, the user’s unique fingerprint limits access to information. This can limit the chance of fraudulent activities in case the card is lost.

To safely and accurately verify the user’s identity, the new IC comes with a proprietary fingerprint authentication algorithm. The algorithm as well as the secure Processor extracts and analyzes the unique features of the fingerprint placed on the sensor. Furthermore, the chip’s anti-spoofing technology prevents unauthorized users from circumventing the security system with illegitimate methods such as artificial fingerprints.

According to Samsung, the S3B512C can meet Mastercard’s Biometric Evaluation Plan Summary (BEPS) specifications for biometric payment card performance. The company believes that the IC will be appealing to card manufacturers that want to optimize their card design.

Ask any celebrity what netizens do best and they shall reply with ‘Trolling’. In many instances, celebrities and actors have called out the trolls for their gestures and comments. However, it seems like a 360° circle where everything seems to keep repeating itself. Because there is nothing netizens can do better than trolling. And this time Javeria Abbasi’s daughter is on the receiving end of it.

Anzela Abbasi’s Birthday

Javeria Abbasi took to her Instagram to share the pictures from her daughter’s birthday celebration. Javeria Abbasi and her daughter were snapped together with Anoushey Abbasi. Meanwhile, the woman of the hour was the birthday girl in her black, hip outfit.

Dressed in black from head to toe, Anzela is wearing a crop top with a bomber jacket. The perfect recipe for disaster is a woman wearing revealing clothes and netizens shall flock to criticise and scrutinise her choice.

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by All Pakistan Drama Page (@allpakdramapageofficial)

Anzela Abbasi was no stranger to all that since netizens took the chance to school the actress’s daughter. From making derogatory remarks on her appearance to questioning her outfit choices, netizens made sure to bring all their might.

Fancy taking a look at the comments section?

“I guess the little Abbasi wanted to be in the news for a while.” One user wrote.

“At least she could’ve shaved her armpits. Disgusting.” Another wrote.

Leave The Women Alone

Schooling women over their bodies and outfits is our national hobby. Meanwhile, the practice now only seems miserable since it doesn’t bring anyone any good. However, what’s even more disappointing is the fact that the majority of the comments are from fellow women who take it upon themselves to objectify other women.

While this shouldn’t be the case, to begin with, it seems like a high time for people to learn some basic etiquette about the use of social media.

These 5 Leading Brands Have Upped Their Marketing Game With NFTS

Jan 27, 2022

NFTs (non-fungible tokens) have taken over the world of marketing. These small pieces of “art” have become the obsession of any and every person involved in the metaverse and beyond and now, brands are following suit. Brands have begun digitally experimenting with them to see how to promote their brand better.

What’s A NFT?

NFTs are designed as digital assets that are entirely unique. They can not be replicated. It is like owning an original work of art online and that’s what the rave is about. Moreover, NFTs are created using blockchain technology which means they have unique identification codes. These 5 brands have mastered the art of NFT (pun intended) and they’re hooking their customers. Here’s how:

1. Coca-Cola

Coca-Cola released four NFTs on World Friendship Day. They released animated, one-of-one digital artworks that give one multi-sensory experiences. How cool is it that! Upon purchase, the owner gets to unlock surprise items! The surprises included an iconic ‘Coca-Cola Bubble Jacket Wearable’ that can be your outfit in a digital world!

2. McDonald’s

Yes, even our burger place is that cool. McDonald’s began its first-ever NFT promotion a few months ago as it introduced “McRib” to its menu. This fast-food chain introduced a limited number of NFTs ~ called McNFT ~ to create a virtual collectible art collection.

3. Ray-Ban

The luxury sunglasses brand is aiming to score high in Metaverse. Ray-Ban is officially collaborating with Meta on AR glasses for their virtual audiences. Moreover, they sauntered into the NFT space but they only created one thing and auditioned it. Say hello to the NFT version of its aviator sunglasses!

4. Gucci

Even luxury brands don’t stay behind. Gucci’s auctioned NFT is actually a video that accompanied its latest collection in the background. It plays like a video on a loop and is described as the most serene “landscape”.

5. Clinique

Skincare but make it virtual! Last year, Clinique exhibited its own NFTs titled MetaOptimist. However, the skincare brand took a different approach. It ran a global beauty competition to give away three NFTs to members of its Smart Rewards programme. The users had to share stories of optimism and hope for the future using hashtags #MetaOptimist #Clinique #Contest.

How To Choose The Best Advertising Agency For Your Brand

By

Mehak Zehra

-

Jan 27, 2022

It is essential to find the best advertising agency that is compatible with you. Because it is together that you can reach your audience. Your advertising agency needs to know you and be on the same page with you to better able to represent you in front of your target audience. So if you are looking for the best advertising agency, here are some pointers on how to do that.

1. Your advertising budget

When you hit larger agencies, they require more money than smaller agencies, mostly because they offer more services than smaller ones don’t or can’t. If you have a limited budget, going for a larger and more famous agency might be the wrong game plan as you’ll have to drop the expensive services they offer. So why not hire a smaller agency and make a detailed advertising plan for yourself.

Integrated agency?

When looking for advertising agencies, there is one piece of advice we would like to offer. Rather than an advertising agency, look for an integrated agency. That will become your one-stop-shop because they provide holistic services.

Instead of just making the ad or the promotional material for you, they will also promote it across various channels. Moreover, you don’t have to explain to your company repeatedly because you don’t have to look for a different agency for each marketing facet.

3. Do you want someone local

Nowadays, in this too modern era where communication is made easy for people sitting on two different continents, the distance is not a problem. So think. Do you want a marketing agency closest to you and handle your business in person, or can you compromise space over the quality of work you want? If you’re a new agency that just started, thinking about these should be a priority.

The size of the agency

Some companies forget this, but it is essential. If you’re just starting and have a small-scale company, you’ll do better with a smaller advertising agency. This is because they will provide their full attention and assign their most talented workers to you.

Whereas if you hire a larger one, it’s more likely to assign their top-notch workers to their more paying clients. And as a new company, they will assume you don’t need the extra services the larger marketing agency provides. If you’re a larger company, then obviously going with a larger marketing agency will be the better option as the additional services will benefit you.

Of course, these are just some of those points that you will be looking at to make a decision. And when you start looking at all the factors, there will be other facets disclosed to you. You will get into their depth as well. And then when you are satisfied, you will make the decision. But the points mentioned above can use them as your starter if you are at a loss when analyzing the agencies.

iPhone 13 may be all glitters but we learnt long ago all that glitters isn’t gold. As cliche as it may be, it holds true for Apple’s latest release that made the world of smartphone enthusiasts go round. The iPhone is surely a treat for everyone who’d like to consume top-notch technology, it is definitely starting to make some people regret it. Here’s what’s going on:

There’s A Bug

Reports suggest that a software issue is a reason behind iPhones looking rather funky. This software bug is making many iPhone 13’s displays turn pink entirely and then crash. This issue has come to light after several reports have been generated on Apple’s discussion forums and Reddit.

People also believe that this issue is only applying to the Apple iPhone 13s only. Only 13 users (pro and other models, both) have expressed this complaint while others are not facing the issue.

What Are The Complaints Like?

This one user said that their GPS was showing to be inaccurate and therefore, the screen of the phone turned neon pink and it froze. Another iPhone 13 user said that their battery was sinking too much and their phone was freezing repeatedly. It also showed the same neon pink screen.

How To Solve The Issue?

Many users have shared that they had their phones replaced. Those who had this done we just want to ask: what do you do for a living? Jokes aside, it’s a solution that will help long-term. Others said that they were turned down by Apple because the people couldn’t find any “hardware issue”.

Another interesting finding is that this issue is most common in China! Apple’s help team went on Weibo and advised its iPhone 13 users to do a backup. They also suggested that an update to the latest version of iOS to be done immediately. So far, besides this, Apple has released no official news about the pink screen or any fix!

Latest Apple News

Besides this bad news, there is also a good one in store for iPhone 13 users. Apple has currently initiated a photography challenge for all its iPhone 13 users. The challenge is macro photography based and it can make your photography super popular!

From time to time you must have heard someone say, “But oh, we do not even make enough to pay taxes, then why should we file a return?” It is not about whether we qualify to pay taxes or not, if we live in a country, we need to accommodate the government by providing them the trail of our income and expenses so that they are better capable of assisting us. Here is where our responsibility comes in. We need to assist by filing our tax returns regularly.

To pay or not to pay?

It is only after we do our work and the government does not take better care of us that we can start blaming them. Once we file our tax returns and then we find the broken roads, the increase in robberies, and the withering city, we are in a position to complain. But if we are not doing our end of the work, do we qualify to whine?

In that regard, let’s look at the process of filing for taxes because the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) does actively tries to make it easier. Recently, they have made the entire process online; one that you can do yourself and for free.

Chughtai Lab Fined By Sindh Govt For Issuing Wrong Test Results

Since the beginning of the pandemic, the Chughtai Lab is under the radar for giving incorrect covid test results to patients. In today’s news, the Sindh commissioner has charged Chughtai Lab with a fine of PKR 100,000.

Chughtai Lab’s Fraudulent Activity

Chughtai Lab has built quite a reputation for itself given that the coronavirus test results obtained from them were never reliable, to begin with. Meanwhile, the complaints are only increasing by the day and it seems like the government has finally taken notice.

In a recent hearing on Wednesday, the health commissioner has charged Chughtai Lab for a fine of PKR 100,000. The announcement was made after a recent court hearing where the complaint was filed against the laboratory.

The issue was raised after a patient got his covid test done from the laboratory. Despite having no symptoms, he got a positive result. Upon further consideration, he got tested again which turned out to be negative.

The resident was due to travel and got tested for Covid from the Chughtai Lab and the Aga Khan laboratory on March 31, 2021, before travelling abroad. The petitioner claimed that the performance of private laboratories in Sindh has immensely deteriorated. He further demanded an audit to be conducted of their services.

It was so revealed at the hearing that the lab is massively short-staffed and has been quite inefficient in its work.

Is The Rise In Cases Justifiable?

Many people are now stepping forward and sharing their experiences with the lab. The number of complaints is on the rise and many have reported not just the delivery of wrong results but how they have been compromising with both the results and the public.

With the fifth wave of coronavirus and rising positivity rations in different cities, the credibility of the tests has raised a question mark. Such activities can result in a huge spike in the negative and positive cases of coronavirus. This has put a big question mark on the credibility of the reported patients. Meanwhile, this also takes us one step away from the covid free world.

Apple has an exciting challenge for all those who want to put their new purchases to good use and are photography enthusiasts. If you just purchased iPhone 13 you must be broke but here’s where the fun part comes: you can be broke but famous. Learn more about the Apple photography challenge and how you can participate and win!

What is about?

Apple officially invites all those who own iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 to capture things in a macro photography style. The “Shot on iPhone Challenge” begins today and will run through till February 16, 2022. Winners will be announced in April and they have some fame in store for them.

Why The Challenge?

The thing is – as iPhone 13 users may know – that the iPhone 13 Pro lineup features the most advanced camera system ever created. Not just in iPhones (that’s true too) but generally also. So as a result, it is the first time that users can capture brilliant, close-up images with a minimum focus distance of 2 centimeters.

To celebrate this achievement, Apple has begun this challenge. Share your favorite macro photos taken on iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max on Instagram and Twitter. Do it using the hashtags #ShotoniPhone and #iPhonemacrochallenge to participate in the challenge!

Who Wins What?

The entries will be judged by a panel of expert judges from the industry of photography. Moreover, Apple will review worldwide submissions and select 10 winning photos from the – we think – gazillions of photos. The winning photos will be celebrated in a gallery on Apple Newsroom, on apple.com, Apple Instagram (@apple), and other official Apple accounts. Moreover, they can also be used in digital campaigns, in Apple Store locations, on billboards, or public exhibitions. See? we told you there’s going to be fame.

How To Take The Best Photos?

Some experts have shared their favourite tips to get the best photos. Keep these in mind:

Be close to your subject — you can be as close as 2 centimeters (about an inch) away.

The primary point of focus should be the center of the frame. That is where the sharpest focus is in macro photography on iPhone.

Make sure to tap an area in the viewfinder to set a focus point.

Best to shoot at .5x to capture an Ultra Wide field of view.

Feroze Khan is one of the most notable actors in the industry right now. However, is the actor trying to become notable by doing the most bizarre and strange things? His “mufti” controversy is long over but the actor has now resorted to other ventures which may not suit him at all. Find out what he’s up to here:

Feroze Khan’s Rapping Debut

Feroze Khan has become the subject of trolling at the hands of netizens recently because of what he’s taken up now. This video is going viral on social media for all the wrong reasons! People are having a good laugh overseeing the actor *drumroll please* trying to rap. Yes, you heard that right. The Khuda and Muhabbat actor is trying his hand at rapping. Watch the video here:

He hasn’t revealed the song name and hasn’t mentioned when it will be released. However, this teaser has gotten the ball rolling.

What Do People Think?

Everyone really took this video and went wild with it. People are not only bringing back his comments on his “Sheikh” and how he informs all his life decisions. Moreover, they’re now genuinely questioning his sanity. This actor’s drama clips are weirdest of the highest degree and now he’s trying to rap? Moreover, people genuinely can not help but laugh at his attempt because according to them, it’s making their ears bleed. Read their comments here:

Why Was He In The News Recently?

The actor was in the news recently because of a clip from his latest drama “Aye Musht-e-Khaak” going viral. In that scene, he’s asking Sana Javed what it is to be a mehram. Not only are the dialogues simply horrendous but his acting is remarkably funny. The look of genuine curiosity and also a confession of the desire to be so attracted to the woman that he is willing to become her mehram just to touch her made people lose it.

Besides this, the actor has recently been in the news also because of his family. It has come to everyone’s attention that he is, in fact, still married to his wife and they’re leading a happy life together. So what’s next for Feroze Khan? More weird drama clips or a music career? Whatever it may be, we have a feeling it is going to result in trolling.

Rasgulla Biryani-Would You Dare To Eat This As A Biryani Lover? — Image source: https://www.rvcj.com/

The people who are doing the devil’s work will get on the wrong side of the meetha lovers, especially the Rasgulla and Gulab Jamun lovers. If you don’t get the context of this story, then keep reading because we have a weird account or rather an odd piece of work for you, the Rasgulla Biryani.

Gone are the days when weird experiments were accepted and appreciated in the name of fusion food. However, nowadays, it is no less than a nightmare to indulge in something like Rasgulla and Biryani or Maggi and Golgappas. Aren’t these already killing your appetite?

Last week, we talked about how someone made Rasgulla chaat for their food cart business, and people had bad stuff to say about it. Well, only if it had stopped over there, but people and their attempts to try the most bizarre things in the world seem like putting Rasgulla in whatever food you find is the new upcoming trend.

Rasgulla Biryani

The latest piece of work also seems to be made and delivered in India. An Instagram user took to her account to share the details about the dish and the restaurant offering the Rasgulla Biryani on their menu. The recipe is also going viral on Facebook, and the reactions are hilarious.

Let’s take a look at the video.

What seems like a biryani doesn’t resemble biryani one bit. Or, as we say, we don’t see the traditional color or the touch of the biryani given to the rice. The rice looks bland, to begin with, and spices and herbs are nowhere to be found. The alluring food video made people furious with the idea of replacing meat, egg, and veggies with Rasgulla. Imagining Dum Biryani with Rasgulla will undoubtedly kill your love for these two delights. At least, this is what netizens feel, and we indeed agree with them.

Let’s take a look at what people have to say.

By the looks of it, people are furious, and no one wants to try the recipe. Well, at least that’s a relief because the people who would like to try this are indeed part of the problem.

The tests include more than 200 take-offs and landings. As they cover the full range of flight and performance maneuvers and demonstrate static and dynamic stability in the aircraft model.

The car-o-plane has completed 70 hours of flight tests with 200 takeoffs and landings to be cleared by authorities.

The two-seater AirCar has a single propellor. It uses a BMW engine and can reach a height of 8,000ft and speeds of 100mph.

Testimonials By The Founders

“50 years ago, the car was the epitome of freedom,” says Anton Zajac, the project co-founder. “AirCar expands those frontiers, by taking us into the next dimension; where the road meets the sky.”

“With Aircar you will arrive at your destination without the hassle of getting a ride to the airport and passing through commercial security. You can drive your AirCar to the golf course, the office, the mall, or your hotel and park it in a normal parking space.”

“AirCar certification opens the door for mass production of very efficient flying cars. It is official and the final confirmation of our ability to change mid-distance travel forever,” said Stefan Klein, the inventor and test pilot, who led the development team.

Project co-founder Anton Zajac added: “AirCar expands those frontiers, by taking us into the next dimension, where the road meets the sky. We do have plans to fly to London from Paris soon.”

Rene Molnar director of Slovak Transport Authority said: “Transportation safety is our highest priority.

“It defines a new category of a sports car and a reliable aircraft. Its certification was both a challenging and fascinating task.”
