Unrigged Note 3 Still Most Powerful

There has been too much talk about how Samsung tweaked the Note 3 to over perform in benchmarking software. The quad core variant of Samsung Galaxy Note 3 was found to be utilising all the 4 cores simultaneously triggering maximum performance when a benchmarking software like GeekBench was running. Samsung included a special core that allowed that enabled the GPU to run at a higher clock speed and locked the CPU to max frequency . This caused the benchmarking score to increase by about 20% s per ARSTechnica. This was much puzzling as LG Optimus G2 that uses a similar 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800 processor clocked at 2.3GHz was left out in the dust. When the same Benchmarking software were used in a modified mode the performance falled to a similar level of the LG G2. This should be of not most concern as The note 3 is still one of the top perfomers according to benchmarks , click on the link to see more

IPHONE 5s Blue Screen Of Death

The blue screen of death(BSOD) — is an unwelcoming sight that Microsoft users are familiar. It happens when Windows encounters a critical error it can’t recover from forcing a reboot and possibly resulting in lost work.
The same thing is now giving trauma to users of apple flagship device.Unlike Windows The BSOD is meticulously designed to be minimalistic, without any text interfering with the user experience. This might be due to patent issues with Microsoft but that is for another day. If the screen is gone in 1 second, you won’t be able to read that text anyway! The problems seems to originate from apple's own apps and while attempting multitasking that seems to trigger BSOD. Strangely the problem is only affecting iphone 5s users.The good news is that apple will release iOS 7.0.3 update which is expected to fix this bug Current workarounds to avoid the reboots is to disable iCloud syncing for Apple's Pages, Keynote, and Numbers apps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNw457joq5I
