How to shoot video in super slow motion!

Slow motion mode is gaining popularity, and it's no wonder why, with manufacturers like Samsung, Sony and Huawei constantly making improvements and offering more features and better quality. In this article, we'll share all our favorite tips and tricks for taking slow motion videos with your Android smartphone.

What is slow motion mode?

In 2018, slow motion mode is all the rage. The feature allows you to capture video at slower speeds than normal and it can be used for many different purposes, like highlighting something funny or pretty, or showing how something quick and complicated works in a detailed way that wouldn't otherwise be possible.Every manufacturer does things its own way so it's hard to generalize about this technology. What is important to remember is that it can sometimes be difficult to start recording your slow motion video at the right time, especially since you're recording only a couple of seconds, which thanks to the slow motion, is transformed into several seconds. In other words, you must be careful to capture the situation at just the right moment, which can prove difficult. Samsung has found a solution to this and offers to automatically detect when it would be ideal to start capturing in slow motion.

How to capture video in slow motion

Things are definitely more complicated without the automatic mode. The main difficulty is capturing the scene at the  right moment: you want to record a precise moment so you have to press the button at the right time. In a situation where everything is based on spontaneity, it's almost mission impossible (unless you know exactly what will happen and when). In short, forget about capturing spontaneous moments or hope to be lucky.If you have the scene under control, however, and know exactly when to press the button, you can achieve good quality results. First of all, make sure you are not too far or too close to your subject (usually a person). It is useless to have good timing if the subject of your video is not visible. You should practice a few times so you can find out if there's a gap between when you press the button and when it actually starts recording. This is definitely the case with the Huawei P20 Pro. Like all videos, it is important to have good stabilization. If your hand is shaking, your video will not look good at any speed. Of course, your smartphone probably has some sort of stabilization, but you should make sure to hold the device firmly in your hands to avoid having to retake the video.

Powerbeats Pro review: The best-sounding wireless beat headphones .

As always I will not bore you with all those technical specifications, you are smart enough to do that on the internet. I will straight away let you know the pros and the cons of this device that I honestly felt without any fancy technical terms. So let us start with the PROS: The battery life is just flawless. The sound quality has improved a lot as compared to other beat products. The controls are amazing. Water resistant. Secure fit and sleek design. Bold and vibrant sound. Enough of the cons now lemme tell u the downside of this device i.e the CONS: The huge charging case feels a bit like a burden. The treble becomes overbearing at higher volumes. The hook design is not comfortable for everyone. There is no basic battery gauge. Let us wrap up the review with my final verdict.  Beats took its time building a true wireless option for its headphone line, but the wait was mostly worth it. The Powerbeats Pro is a great all-around option for workout headphon

How to protect your PC from ransomware!

Ransomware is a particularly nasty kind of malware which encrypts your files and holds them ransom until you make a payment. In this article, we explain what ransomware is, how it works and which software can help you protect against it best. What is ransomware and why should you protect against it? Ransomware is a kind of malware which locks you out of your device or encrypts files on it, preventing access until a sum of money is paid. This tricky malware can be delivered via Trojan, which a user may download by accident thinking it is another file, or it can spread without any user action, as in the case of WannaCry. WannaCry spread very quickly and was perhaps the most high profile recent example of ransomware. It affected 300,000 computers in over 150 countries by taking advantage of a vulnerability in Windows which was leaked from the NSA. Another example of ransomware is Cerber, which infects your system via Trojan horse, then encrypts your files and asks for payment.

How to turn your smartphone into an Android Go device!!

Android Go is Google's latest venture to provide a smooth operating system to smartphones that are equipped with cheaper hardware. It's the successor to Android One, and is trying to succeed where its predecessor failed. More and more Android Go devices have recently been introduced in various markets around the globe, and now you can get Android Go installed on pretty much any device that currently runs on Android.  This is a patch that turns on low RAM mode on your Android, the low-RAM Property Patcher, which makes more RAM available so that the system becomes more fluid. In addition, the Play Store recognizes your Android as the Go version and offers apps like YouTube, Gboard and others in lighter versions. You can download some of the Android Go apps directly from the Play Store. I applied the patch on my smartphone, a Moto G3 that has 1 GB of RAM, and the system started out consuming only 390 MB, which leaves you with a greater amount of RAM. This enables the system
