Oprah Winfrey is one of the most powerful and influential women in America.

Forbes last year estimated Winfrey’s net worth to be a whopping $3 billion and this placed her 3rd on the list of America’s richest self-made women.

Yesterday, the talk show host literally owned the internet as she became the first black woman to be awarded a Cecil B Demille Award at the 2018 Golden Globe Awards, joining Meryl Streep, Steven Spielberg, Barbra Streisand and Sophia Loren.

However, it was Winfrey’s impassioned speech in support of those who have exposed sexual misconduct in the workplace that is making waves on social media.

The beauty was wrapped up in a sleek black gown to show support to the victims of the sexual misconduct.

Titled as“a new day is on the horizon”, the icon’s speech emphasized on the rise of sexual misconduct in Hollywood and divulged that she had been facing it since her early childhood.

“And when that new day finally dawns it will be because of a lot of magnificent women, many of whom are in this room tonight, and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure they become leaders that take us to the time where nobody has to say ‘me too’ again.”

Her beautiful note got lauded by people all over the world! 

Our very own Humsafar haseena too joined the bandwagon, tweeting in support of Oprah Winfrey’s words of wisdom. 

Winfrey’s story is a true rags-to-riches tale. With her thought-provoking note, Winfrey connected to people worldwide and proved that she is indeed a woman of powerful endurance.

iPhone 8 Vs iPhone 8 Plus Vs iPhone X- The Major Differences!

Apple’s iPhone 8, 8+ and iPhone X have remained one of the favorite models by the company. However, a lot of users have one common question, whats the difference?

Well, there are differences in the handsets, even though they are not very obvious. This also explains the price of the phones, as the iPhone X is priced at a whopping $1,000.

Display- LCD vs OLED

iPhone X True Tone OLED Display

The iPhones standout when it comes to their display, which is also one of the most obvious differences. Here’s what the phones are equipped with;

iPhone X

It has a 5.8-inch display, 19.5:9 aspect ratio True Tone OLED, 2436 x 1125 pixels (458 PPI), and 82.9% screen-to-body ratio.

iPhone 8

The 8 has a 4.7-inch display with 16:9 aspect ratio True Tone LCD, 1334 x 750 pixels (326 PPI), 65.6% screen-to-body ratio.

iPhone 8+

The 8 Plus boasts a 5.5-inch, with 16:9 aspect ratio True Tone LCD, 1920 x 1080 pixels (401 PPI), 67.7% screen-to-body ratio.

Out of all 3, the iPhone X has the best and most different display. Its bezel-less body has allowed the phone to have more screen in a ‘compact’ body and not to forget that the OLED display makes pictures and videos more vibrant.

Design- The Past VS The Future

Once again, a very noticeable feature which is different in all 3 variants is their design. One example is that the iPhone X in smaller (in height) compared to the iPhone 8 Plus, however, it has a bigger display.

Apple was unable to fit its exciting Face ID technology (more in the Performance section) into the top bezel resulting in a large cut out ‘notch’. This compromises viewing media on the iPhone X.

  • iPhone X – 143.6 x 70.9 x 7.7 mm (5.65 x 2.79 x 0.30 in) and 174g (6.14 oz)
  • iPhone 8 – 138.4 x 67.3 x 7.3 mm (5.45 x 2.65 x 0.29 in) and 148g (5.22 oz)
  • iPhone 8 Plus – 158.4 x 78.1 x 7.5 mm (6.28 x 3.07 x 0.32 in) and 202g (7.13 oz)

Performance – Identical Triplets

Coming to the performance of all 3 phones, there is not much of a noticeable difference in this category.

  • iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus – Apple A11 ‘Bionic’ chipset: Six-Core CPU, Six Core GPU, M11 motion coprocessor, 3GB RAM (iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus), 2GB RAM (iPhone 8)

Importance of 5G for Smartphone Users & Gamers in Pakistan!

Cameras – Dual Vs Single 

According to Forbes, Phone X and iPhone 8 Plus add a second 12-megapixel telephoto lens (for 2x optical zoom and Portrait Mode), the iPhone X telephoto lens has a faster aperture (f/2.4 vs f/2.8) and optical image stabilization (OIS). This makes it better in low light.

iPhone X (left), Pixel 2 (right)

Battery Life & Charging 

  • iPhone 8 (1821 mAh)
  • iPhone 8 Plus (2675 mAh)
  • iPhone 7 (1960 mAh)
  • iPhone 7 Plus (2900 mAh)
  • iPhone X (2716 mAh)

Storage & Price

The most expensive iPhones of all time:

  • iPhone X – 64GB ($999), 256GB ($1,149)
  • iPhone 8 – 64GB ($699), 256GB ($849)
  • iPhone 8 Plus – 64GB ($799), 256GB ($949)

if you can afford the iPhone X you’ll enjoy it. But if money is tight I’d suggest the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are actually more refined phones.

Imran Khan’s 3rd Marriage Controversy: Bushra Maneka’s Ex-Husband Breaks Silence

It was yet another eventful weekend for the whole of Pakistan, packed with juicy controversy and fresh with spicy gossip. Well that’s what our people love the most, right?

This time it was the life and multiple marriages of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf Chairman, Imran Khan that drew some serious ire.

Rumors were rife that the politician has secretly tied the knot to the mother of 5 and spiritual leader, Bushra Maneka.

This news triggered Pakistanis like nobody’s business and a tsunami of hate comments erupted on the internet.

Following the bedlam, PTI released a statement clarifying that Khan has ONLY proposed to Bushra Bibi and she is yet to give her consent on the matter.

‘Mr Khan proposed marriage, but Ms Maneka asked for time to make a final decision after consulting her family, including her children.’

The issue turned into a national scandal, with media houses accusing Kaptaan of destroying Bushra Bibi’s first marriage to her ex-husband, Khawar Farid Maneka- a senior customs official in Islamabad.

The slandering has now gotten out of control, courtesy irresponsible journalism and keyboard warriors kickstarting a smear campaign against Maneka and the chairman.

So much so, Manya’s former husband has now come forward to defend his ex-wife and reveal the real story behind the whole hullabaloo

“I want to clearly state about my former wife, Bushra Bibi, that I have not seen a woman as pious as her in the world”

In a video clip, Khawar Farid Maneka vouched for Bushra’s piety and slammed all rumors about Imran Khan being the reason for their separation.

“We consider Imran Khan a disciple of our spiritual house. It hurts me to hear such things about him because I have not seen a man as respectable as him

Watch his complete message here!

Earlier, Bushra’s son too was compelled to shut down all tittle-tattle about his mother being circulated through T.V channels.

https://www.facebook.com/PeopleOfPakistanOfficial/videos/2262574783767929/

It was indeed a shameful day for our society as a whole. With much more crucial matters to ponder upon, a third marriage suddenly became a public matter for the entire nation!

Let’s see what more drama is yet to unfold!

This Foreigner Visited Pakistan and Absolutely Loved It!

2018 is the year for Pakistan, the British Backpacking Society recently named the Land of Pure as the number one travel destination in the world.

Another popular adventurer has put Pakistan on the world’s tourism map after her vlog on ‘Why You Should Visit Pakistan’ has gone viral over the internet.

Nora visited Pakistan last year and vlogged her trip to Islamabad, Hunza and other Northern areas on her Youtube channel. The adventure enthusiast travels throughout the world on her motorcycle.

Here’s what she had to say about her making the video for Pakistan, 

So I traveled to Pakistan last year and it has left a big impression on me. I wanted to make this video because I feel like Pakistan has an underdog position and they can use some help showing the good sides of their country.

The Dutch national is seen campaigning for Pakistan in her video and mentions 5 reasons why one must visit. 

  1. Beautiful Landscapes

Here’s what Nora had to say,

“Pakistan is amazing for a nature person. It has some of the highest mountains in the world. There are some incredible views! You’ll see mountains, glaciers, wild rivers it will be a road trip you’ll never forget.”

2. Very Friendly People

Nora describes the people of Pakistan as extremely friendly and loving people who will make you feel right at home.

“They are so happy to see foreigners in the country, they are grateful to see you there!”

3. Delicious Food

Pakistan is known for its many delicacies and Nora completely agrees. She mentions how finger-licking good the food is across the country.

4. No Crowds at Tourist Attractions

Due to Pakistan not being a popular tourist destination for foreigners, you’ll hardly find any crowds at the tourist attractions.

“You really feel like an explorer in the country.”

5. Safe to Travel

IMC Unofficially Launched Toyota Camry Hybrid 2018 in Pakistan!

Unlike other manufacturers who hold grand events to launch their latest models, Indus Motors Company (IMC) recently held a soft launch of their all-new 2018 Toyota Camry Hybrid.

Since this was a soft event, only selective individuals were invited, including official dealers and a limited number of media personalities. A car enthusiast shared photos of the Camry which were taken from the event.

Atlas Honda Increases Price-Tag for Bikes!

Since it has not yet been launched in Thailand, chances are that the model will be imported directly from Japan. For those who were unaware, Toyota Pakistan takes its cues from Toyota Thailand.

However, if a car is not available in Thailand, and is a Japanese-made built,  it will be only available with a hybrid drivetrain since there is no regular gasoline-powered (non-hybrid) Camry in Japan.

It is expected to be equipped with a 2487cc engine, giving off 210 BHP.

The rumored price of the 2018 Camry Hybrid are as followed;

  • Camry Hybrid (premium grade): Rs. 8,499,000/- ex factory
  • Camry Hybrid (base grade): Rs. 8,299,000/- ex factory

PCB in Works to Bring Australia & New Zealand in Pakistan!

With cricket season in full-swing, and PSL 3 just around the corner, Pakistani sports fanatics cannot wait for the clash of the best players on an international platform.

While on one hand, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is preparing for PSL, on the other they are in works to bring Australia and New Zealand to Pakistan!

According to sources, PCB has plans in the pipeline to encourage some good ol’ cricket from both the teams.

Speaking on the matter, Najam Sethi said:

“We are scheduled to host Australia and New Zealand for our home series in UAE. I will try my best to convince both of them to play at least one match in Pakistan during the series.”- Najam Sethi

He further added, “last year was very good for cricket. PCB and our team have achieved a lot in 2017. It was the collective dedication and team spirit that we did well. We are on a winning streak and it will continue.”

“We hosted the PSL final, then World XI team came and then Sri Lanka arrived and played in Pakistan. West Indies will come and play in Pakistan in March.”

We hope PCB pulls of their magic and successfully convinces the teams to play at least 1 match in Pakistan. Yes folks, #CricketIsComingHome!
