Samsung Galaxy S7 Vs iPhone 6S Plus Comparison: Features & Specifications

Samsung-S7-vs-iPhone-6s-Plus

Samsung Galaxy S7 vs iPhone 6s Plus. The war is on. As soon as Samsung unveiled its newest flagship, the phone was pitted against its traditional competitor Apple’s flagship.

So which phone is better you ask? Let’s review and find out.

Design

The S7’s metallic and Corning Gorilla Glass finish gives off a premium feel while iPhone 6s Plus boasts an elegant aluminum frame. The size advantage; however, tips in S7’s favor.

The noticeably less bulky S7 with the 5.1-inch screen is easy to handle than the 5.5 inch iPhone 6s Plus. The S7 however, attracts finger print smudges on the back while iPhone 6s Plus stays clear of it.

It all comes down to personal preference of the consumer for size and finish.

Display

The S7 boasts an amazing Quad HD Super AMOLED display at a resolution of 2560×1440. While the iPhone 6s Plus has a Retina HD LED-backlit IPS LCD at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. The pixel per inch (ppi) also differ as the S7 has a density of 576 ppi vs iPhone’s 401 ppi.

 

S7’s ‘Always On’ display has an image, calendar or time and the date on the screen as it saves battery without needing the phone to be woken up. The iPhone’s 3D Touch recognizes touch pressure and customizes your experience accordingly. Both Phones have strengthened glass displays to protect from damage.

So a clear winner but with only a slight margin is the S7 in the display department.
Samsung Launches S7 & S7 Edge: Specifications & Features

Performance & Memory

Samsung has powered its flagship with two choices of processors. The Quad Core Snapdragon 820 processor will be available in devices in the US while the homegrown Samsung powerhouse of Octa-Core Exynos 8890 will power the S7 outside the US.

In comparison, iPhone 6s Plus is powered by a 64-Bit Dual Core A9 Chipset. On paper, the dual-core A9 might look tiny but it has proven to be a powerful and efficient one.

iPhone 6s Plus’s 2 GB RAM is clearly outmatched in the RAM arena as S7 bags 4 GB RAM. Final verdict.

Camera

Samsung dropped the megapixel count on the S7 to 12 Mega Pixel from S6’s 16 Mega Pixel. But this doesn’t matter as the S7 has been fitted with a powerful f/1.7 lens which means better low light photography than any other phone. The front camera of the S7 is also a f/1.7 lens with 5MP for amazing selfies.

Also, S7 comes with the innovative phase detection autofocus which can focus two times faster than the iPhone 6s Plus as reviews tell.

Galaxy-S7-VS-IPHONE-6S-PLUS-CAMERA-RESULT

iPhone 6s Plus also rocks a 12 MP camera but with a less powerful f/2.2 lens. Phase detection autofocus is also present on the 6s Plus yet it’s not as snappier as the S7’s.

So the winner in means of specs is S7. But we shall wait and see because S7’s true rival, the iPhone 7 will be revealed six months down the road.

There are some amazing services that exist around the world but take their sweet time coming to Pakistan. Just like Netflix came to Pakistan super late in the running, we were also missing the audio streaming service Spotify. But now, the service has been launched in Pakistan as well as Bangladesh and Srilanka. Currently, the service has 345 million monthly active listeners. And this number includes 155 million subscribers of the premium packages.

Spotify Free Or…?

The music service has announced that it will be offering millions of tracks that constitute songs from both local and international artists. So the people who had been waiting for it to come to Pakistan can rest assured that they can finally use it. Moreover, even though the service is free in general, if someone wants to enjoy the service without ads, they can opt for subscription packages.

Subscription Charges

According to the company, Spotify Premium for one person costs PKR 299 a month. But if one were to get a Premium Family subscription plan, it would allow six members to use the account, and it would cost PKR 479. There is a separate plan for if there are two Spotify users at the same address; Spotify Premium Duo costs PKR 390 and offers a Duo Mix, which is a playlist that gets regularly updated to suit the listening pattern of the two house-members.

Spotify For Pakistan

What’s great is that the service has been curated to suit Pakistan instead of letting the customers in Pakistan adjust to it. The service has been accumulated with the help of local music experts. Knowing what people listen to, the service offers Pakistani Drama OSTs, Pakistani Rock Hits, Loadshedding Longing, Hot Hits Pakistan, among other genres.

Alex Norström, Chief Freemium Business Officer of Spotify, says, “We are incredibly excited about the opportunity to bring together creators and listeners around the world. As we’ve expanded our international reach over the years, we’ve connected over 8 million artists with listeners across nearly every continent, putting Spotify firmly at the heart of the global audio economy.

The world is home to a plethora of bizarre food combinations. Do you remember the time when everyone, on SWOT, was talking about Nalli Biryani? It was a combination of Biryani with Nalli usually found in meat. Now, this dish received quite a lot of mixed reviews. Many people loved it, yet many more absolutely despised it.

The amount of combinations and experiments that have been done with biryani is quite high. At this point, you may start to wonder if Biryani might just mutate with this many experiments. In light of Biryani, let us tell you about the world’s most expensive one. It is present at an eatery in UAE and the price will shock you. One does not even know how anyone can order it!

Biryani and most expensive one

The Everlasting Love For Biryani:

It is no surprise that Biryani is one of the most popular dishes in the subcontinent. It is so popular that almost every other food joint in Karachi has Biryani. There is such a cult following behind it that people will just hear no negativity about it. Of course, we are allowed to have our own opinions and preferences.

There are many types of this food item. Everyone makes it their own way and it takes practice to master the dish. Bombay and Sindhi Biryani are some of the most common ones to be eaten in Karachi. Then comes chicken tikka biryani which has a whole different taste of its own. It is definitely worth a try and is highly recommended.

Going Beyond The Cost:

What we intend to inform you today is about setting a record. It seems that a record of ‘Most Expensive’ has just been set. What exactly is the most expensive item? Biryani, of course! As mentioned above, the dish is being served at a fine-dining eatery in the UAE. Now, wait till you hear what one plate costs! It may just drop your jaw or leave your eyes wide open at the mention of it.

One plate of this Biryani costs at an equivalent of Rs.40,000! Can anyone really believe this? This much amount for a plate of Biryani. You must be wondering whether it’s made of gold or something. Well, that is exactly what it has been plated with. You get your choice of rice and quite a lot of BBQ items to go with it. The writer of this article is still finding a hard time digesting the price of this dish.

Unusual Food Items:

Whether the taste of this Biryani is good still remains to be seen. However, it also remains to be seen who is going to order this gold plated dish. The price of gold at 5 grams is nearly Rs.50,000 so we can assume a little less than that may be in the Biryani!

There can be even more similar combinations out there. In Karachi, a gold plated paan is being sold at Rs.1000. Yes, the paan or Betel Leaf itself is plated in gold.

The internet is a weird place. It is doubtful that you do not come across something weird every once in a while. Whether it is a video of a man spitting while making rotis or some people spotting a Shahid Afridi’s lookalike, it is impossible that you stay online and not come across something completely random out of the blue every once in a while.

Image Source: Instagram

Twitter Spots A Lady Who Looks Just Like Shoaib Akhtar

A woman’s video is making rounds on social media, which is being referred to as the female Shoaib Akhtar. In the viral video, a woman can be seen posing funnily while imitating our parents’ old vintage pictures.

The lady who goes by the username @omgvinita is a frequent TikToker who is more of a social media personality with her presence on Youtube, Facebook, and other major social media platforms.

While many Pakistanis and sports enthusiasts identified the similarities between Shoaib Akhtar’s and Vinita’s pictures, a quick-scroll through her profile would reveal that the similarities are confined to certain TikTok videos only.

As per the information listed on her website, Vinita Khilnani is an aspiring actress and a director. She has worked in a few movies and has a significant presence on Tik Tok and other social media platforms.

More Pictures And Videos Of “Shoaib Akhtar’s Lookalike”

As per Vinita’s Instagram bio, she has been Miss India North America in the year 2018. Based in Los Angeles, United States, she gets immense praise and love for her funny videos that get her thousands of views and likes on her posts.

Times When Shoaib Akhtar Was Unafraid Of Speaking His Mind:

Even though Twitter identified her as someone whose facial features resemble that of Shoaib Akhtar, we could not come across a video where we could see Vinita lashing out at someone with her criticism like Shoaib Akhtar, who is unafraid of speaking his mind.

A few days ago, the Rawalpindi Express was under severe criticism for his disapproval of the Pakistan Super League’s Official Anthem. He has also been extremely vocal about his comments outside of cricket and even bashed Pakistan’s advertisement industry. The fast bowler’s life and career have not been shy of controversies and have been under the spotlight for a really long time for his boldness.

What do you think about the resemblance between Shoaib Akhtar and Vinita? Let us know under the comments below.

Khalil Ur Rehman Under Fire Again For Abusing A Female Panelist

Khalil Ur Rehman Qamar, the famous writer of Mere Paas Tum Ho, Pyarey Afzal, and a few more blockbuster dramas, has made news once again for another feminism-related issue. Some time ago, he was invited to a television show. A well-known social worker, Marvi Sarmad, was also a guest on the show. And in that show, Khalil Ur Rehman and Marvi had quite a showdown where the former used abusive language on the live show.

Khalil Ur Rehman – Women’s Issues

The whole issue became the talk of the town, and the channel allegedly canceled other contracts with Khalil. Given that the rest of his dramas were focused on romance and only one on betrayal by a woman, it feels dumb to get him to talk about women empowerment or women issues. He clearly does not fit in the profile of someone who could talk about what women feel; his gender does not allow him. You know how some men are; they think they are the patrons of highlighting women’s issues. The issues they want to talk about are what they categorize as issues. It is a similar case with Khalil Ur Rehman.

So, this time again, he was invited to talk about women’s issues

The recent controversy

Amidst the social workers, Naheed Baig and Ailia Zehra, Khalil Ur Rehman Qamar was invited. The host addressed Khalil asking him what he thinks about the trend in some areas where underage girls are being married off even though the legal marriageable age is 16.

Khalil began answering but made an offensive and triggering comment towards the social workers claiming that their statements were anti-Quranic, ‘so they better shut their mouth.’ Offended at being targeted through religion, she spoke up. Ailia clarified then and there that she said no such thing that could be anti-Islamic. But being cut off mid-way was more triggering for the man who got up and walked out of a live television show.

Ailia took it to Twitter, telling the public how, as he walked out, he called her a RAW agent and ‘spewed sexist slurs’.

Twitter Reactions

Once again, seeing Khalil on their social media, people started reacting to the tweet.

Indeed, one should not interrupt another while saying their piece, but it is also wrong to comment on someone’s religious beliefs.

Man Caught Spitting While Making Roti Leaves People Disgusted

Hygiene is essential when it comes to food. And if you do something even remotely disgusting that compromises on it, action needs to be taken. But before all that, doing something disgusting to something as sacred as food, isn’t that a crime against humanity? But it seems that this has become the new norm considering it was just this week that we came across Strawberry Biryani. Today, it was a man caught spitting on roti; I mean, who does that?

Meerut Uttar Pradesh

The incident is said to have happened last week on February 16th, in Uttar Pradesh, a province in India. A wedding was taking place in Aroma Garden. And as the recent trend goes, some of the wedding food is made in front of the guests. Mostly, that includes making rotis, naan, and desi snacks like Pani puri and chaat. At Aroma Garden, the caterers were making rotis right at the spot near where the guests sat.

The man went about rolling the dough and putting it in tandoor as usual, but a guest nearby noticed something unusual. Apparently, the man was intentionally spitting on each roti before putting it in the heated tandoor.

The disgusting viral video

Disgusted to the core, we are guessing, the guest took a video to put it up on social media. Netizens got access to it, and it instantly went viral where they started tagging Meerut Police because the jurisdiction of Aroma Garden fell into their hands.

Being tagged numerous times, the police department took notice. They tracked the man in the video and made an arrest.

What now?

While this is all well and good, it does lead to a meaningful conversation. If this man was so confident about what he was doing, it means that there must be others who have such notions about cooking methods.

And this man was caught because the guests saw him, but how many others must be doing something similar and not get caught just because that happens behind closed doors?

More and more heads are turning towards emerging trends in the world. Every month, we see a new trend coming up. If we go even more specific, there are trends appearing every week. In January, we saw people adapt to many modern things and norms. Now, as we are seeing, the automotive industry is on the rise. Everywhere we look, we see companies trying to work towards the electric era.

Combustion engines seem to be entering into the final phase of their century-long run. Similarly, the concept of Cryptocurrency has a lot of people gripped these days. It is the latest in terms of digital finance and assets worth investing in. The most famous one, as you might already know, is known as Bitcoin. After the recent acts by Elon Musk, bitcoin soars higher than ever.

Investing In Cryptocurrency:

It seems to be the highest touching trend of today. There is not a moment when Twitter isn’t exploding with news about bitcoin or some other similar currency. There are so many new cryptocurrency variants, that people are being persuaded to invest in them. However, it is recommended that you invest in the most promising ones, rather than random ones.

Bitcoin is one that sees a constant flux throughout the year. It rises up above in certain months, in value, while it falls in other ones. Now, when Elon Musk suddenly decided to take interest in it, it rose way beyond its limits. Bitcoin has never been higher and suddenly; everybody wants a piece of it. It seems like a digital gold rush.

A New Academic Program By LUMS:

In light of Cryptocurrency becoming more common, academia has decided to show an interest in it. Specifically, LUMS has decided to launch a new program. This academic program will be focused and encompassed around cryptocurrency and its details. You will dive into the program and find yourself learning quite a lot of new stuff.

The course intends to keep its focus on blockchain as well as other emerging markets and areas. This will not only bring about new business models but also bring a new era of novel distributed applications. This new development will also fuel efforts for advocating crypto regulations in Pakistan as early as possible.

Through social media, we can even notice how Waqar Zaka plays into this whole scene. He is often seen discussing matters related to Cryptocurrency. He can be a learning point too.

We hope that the academic program, from LUMS, can be quite successful in its coming years. Let us see exactly how many people decide to enroll for it. There will have to be new faculty and course objectives. These are new waters and not everyone is prepared for them.

Despite the emergence of digital marketing, OOH advertisement is has been growing at an exponential rate due to its impact and visibility.

Kinetic Pakistan and The Scope Of OOH Advertisement

Kinetic Pakistan is one of the pioneers of Out-Of-Home advertisement in Pakistan and currently holds the majority market share. It is currently the only Out-Of-Home Media agency in Pakistan to have international affiliation and has worked with some of the biggest national and multi-national companies in Pakistan.

Ahsan Sheikh who is credited as a well-reputed marketing and advertisement professionals of the Pakistani industry is currently the CEO of Kinetic Pakistan and holds pride in revolutionizing the way OOH Advertisement is perceived in our country and was the first one to introduce the integrated data-based OOH agency model into our country.

Even though brands were skeptical at first to invest in OOH advertisement due to its legality-related and legislative issues, Kinetic Pakistan has emerged as a pioneer and stood-out by using unconventional and Digital OOH Advertisement model for the benefit of the clients as well as the city by directly or indirectly contributing towards the advertisement space.

Kinetic

The Emergence Of Digital OOH Advertisement In Pakistan:

Many people think of Digital OOH advertisement as something that has a limited scope however the reality is quite different. As per the data revealed by official sources, the digital Out-Of-Home advertisement grew by over 58% in 2019 whereas 15% in 2020 from its preceding year in Pakistan despite COVID-19 Lockdown which shows how much the companies are focusing on the digital medium as part of the new marketing wave.

Before Kinetic Pakistan, many brands and marketers believed that OOH was confined to billboards, and were focused on low-cost service providers while ignoring Global OOH industry standards for evaluation. However, after the advent of Kinetic Pakistan and its integrated and strategic approach to OOH, the industry felt the impact and the true potential of Conventional & Digital OOH along with new Unconventional mediums were explored.

Even though the industry has been able to grow enormously in a small amount of time, Kinetic Pakistan believes there is still a lot of potential and growth awaiting to be explored especially in the Digital Out-Of-Home industry in Pakistan.

According to Hassan Gondal, COO – Kinetic Pakistan “We at Kinetic being the market leader feel responsible to spearhead the growth and maximize the potential of the industry. We have been doing that by continuously innovating and creating contextual, dynamic and programmatic campaigns through the use of digital and unconventional mediums. We have been redefining the scope of OOH by bridging the gap between online and offline audiences, strategic touchpoint development, social media integration in OOH and bringing in the global best practices.”
