South Korean electronics giant Samsung has announced a new variant of the recently launched Galaxy S10 Lite in India with 512GB onboard storage. The rest of the specifications remain the same: a 6.7-inch full-HD+ Super AMOLED Infinity-O display, a Snapdragon 855 chipset, and a 48MP triple rear camera setup that promises higher stability with Super Steady Optical Image Stabilization. Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite 8GB+512GB variant will be available at a price of ₹44,999 from March 1 via leading online portals and official retail stores.

Google has released reports for 131 countries with charts that compare traffic from February 16 to March 29, as nations exercise stringent lockdown&nbsp;measures amid the coronavirus&nbsp;pandemic.&nbsp;Italy and Spain, two of the hardest-hit countries, both saw visits to retail and recreation locations such as restaurants and movie theaters plunge 94%. India, which went into a sudden 21-day lockdown on March 25, was also notable at 77%.

Overall, you're getting a fantastic front panel on this phone, but&nbsp;Samsung has already won the&nbsp;greatest display and biggest phone trophy loads of times before. That's why the biggest selling point over here is the incredibly powerful camera system that includes a 108MP wide-angle main snapper, 48MP telephoto, 12MP ultra-wide, and Time of flight DepthVision lenses. Now, that's some serious muscle power and as you'd expect,&nbsp;the S20 Ultra delivers excellent camera images, no matter what you're shooting.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The main camera clicks 12MP photos by default as it combines nine pixels into one, resulting in much lower noise and sharper quality. You can also take straight up 108 MP shots, which results in brighter pictures with more natural colours. Furthermore, the advantage of using the 108 MP sensor is that you can scale in without losing out on detail. The large sensor also does a great job of giving you fantastic depth of field all on its own, so&nbsp;you don't really need to use the portrait mode. Low light photography is exceptionally good and you can further enhance it by using the night&nbsp;mode.&nbsp;Unfortunately,&nbsp; the Ultra much like Samsung&rsquo;s other phones suffers from heavy image post-processing, which means the AI will boost colours and saturation levels, especially in ultra-wide photos.&nbsp;
Now, the zoom functionality on the Ultra&rsquo;s camera is the main party trick. Samsung calls it &lsquo;Space Zoom' and it allows you to zoom up to 100x&hellip; Images taken with 1x and 2x are perfectly usable, while both 4x and 5x&nbsp; photos also look sharp.&nbsp;Even 10x manages to preserve a decent amount of detail.&nbsp;The next stop is 30x and this is where softness and noise start to kick in. Finally, by the time you slide into 100x, everything just looks a bad piece of watercolour art. In our opinion, the 100x zoom only works well when you're focusing on a subject that has text written on it.&nbsp;You won't be posting it yo your Instagram page for sure, but this level of detail from such a vast distance is pretty impressive.&nbsp;
Coming to the 40MP front camera, a monster in its own right, produces bright and lively selfies, but again Samsung&rsquo;s s image processing is aggressive in smoothing and whitening skin. Aside from all those megapixels and crazy zoom, the most interesting camera feature on this phone is something called Single Take. When engaged, it records a series of photos and videos of your subject. Basically the AI decides what works best for you,&nbsp; and while it seems like a cool idea, we don't see it being used on a regular basis.&nbsp;

All in all, the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is a beast of a phone- everything from big display to the megalithic camera bump is just extreme. For most people, the S20+ could be a better option as it almost offers all the same features at a lower cost.&nbsp; But that being said, we loved using this phone and there's a good chance you will love the Ultra too, as long as you're willing to pay the 'Ultra' price for it.

In terms of software, the Ultra runs on&nbsp;Android 10 and Samsung One UI 2, which in our opinion is one of&nbsp;the best-in-class Android skin on the market. Things like dark mode, gestural navigation, better privacy controls are all available over here. Furthermore, the haptic feedback that we loved on the S20 + is even better on the Ultra, most likely due to the screens larger size.&nbsp;

In India, the S20 Ultra gets powered by Samsung's homegrown Exynos 990 chipset as opposed to the Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865 processor&nbsp;available in the U.S. and Korea.&nbsp;According to benchmark scores, the Exynos chip&nbsp;doesn't measure up to what Qualcomm is offering, but of course, benchmark scores don't always paint an accurate picture, and, in&nbsp;day-to-day use, you won't notice a significant difference. The Exynos chipset handles everything with ease, whether it's opening apps or multitasking. The only place we felt the Exynos 990 didn't perform up to expectations was while playing visually intensive games for long periods of time. For example&nbsp;Call of duty Mobile after two hours of non-stop gameplay resulted in the phone heating up and frame rates plunging.&nbsp;&nbsp;
We were also concerned that the 5,000 battery, despite being a massive one, would struggle to&nbsp;keep that 120Hz, 6.9-inch display lit up,&nbsp;but it turns out its more than capable of handling the extra stress. We got about 10 hours with high refresh rate option turned on, which isn't all-day longevity but it isn't too bad either. You can also top it up the battery from dead to 100 per cent in just over an hour with the 25 W fast charger that comes bundled in the box.
&nbsp;

Personally, we think the S20+ is just the right size for most people but&nbsp;the advantage of having a super large device like the Ultra is that you&nbsp;get a nearly 7-inch edge to edge display, with some of the best OLED technology you'll find on a phone&nbsp; -&nbsp;Colours are punchy, blacks are super inky,&nbsp; brightness is terrific and bezels so incredibly slim that you'd think they've been put on a Keto diet...&nbsp;
Although it's worth noting&nbsp;that the Ultra&rsquo;s bigger screen dimensions result in lower pixel density than the S20+ and&nbsp;there&rsquo;s also a wee bit of interruption to the ocean of screen thanks to the centrally located front camera, but it isn't intrusive at all. The display on the Ultra gets the same 120 Hz refresh rate that we saw on the S20+, which means scrolling and animation&nbsp;playback is super smooth... However, for it to work, you need to give up that lovely QHD+ resolution and settle for the FHD+ resolution instead, which is an easy enough compromise to make for the fluid experience.&nbsp;

The S20 Ultra has a lot in common with its younger sibling, the S20+. Both phones get the&nbsp;extras that befit a Samsung flagship, including loud stereo speakers, IP68&nbsp; water resistance, reverse wireless charging and an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint scanner. They also skip out on the traditional headphone jack, which now seems like a distant memory. The main difference between the two apart from the camera is&nbsp;size.&nbsp;The Ultra is basically a souped-up Galaxy S20+,&nbsp;with a ginormous camera module that makes the phone&nbsp;both top-heavy and side-heavy. Add to that a thickness of 9mm, and this phone could become&nbsp;too much for a small hand to bear.&nbsp;
But that's not to say the S20 Ultra isn't a well-made phone... quite the opposite. The subtle curves at the back offer a comfortable grip while the metal and glass build feels premium in the hand. Although,&nbsp;it doesn't have the Phone 11 Pro classy feel to it, and that beefy camera bump makes it look somewhat intimidating.Samsung has given the module Gorilla Glass 6&nbsp;protection but its sheer size means it has great wobbling potential on a flat surface.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;

Go big or go home! That's what the new Galaxy S20 Ultra is all about. It's got a massive 6.9 inch Dynamic AMOLED screen, 120 Hz high refresh&nbsp;rate, 5,000 mAh battery, 40MP selfie snapper, 12 gigs of RAM, 108 MP quad-camera setup, 100x digital zoom. The only number that's low on the spectrum is the 128 gigs of on board storage and even that's expandable up to 1 TB through Micro SD card expansion.&nbsp;On paper, the&nbsp; Ultra seems like one of the best flagships money can buy,&nbsp;but how does it fare in the real world? Let's find out.&nbsp;

Lenovo and Motorola have announced that some of their products will be receiving a nearly 75-day free warranty extension. The offer is applicable to smartphones and accessories whose warranty was set to expire between March 15 and April 20, but owning to the Covid-19 pandemic, the deadline will be pushed to May 31. The sister companies join a list of smartphone makers including Huawei, Realme, Samsung and OnePlus, that have extended warranties on their devices.

Controversial Israeli cybersecurity firm NSO Group Technology has released court documents that indicate social media giant Facebook attempted to purchase its Pegasus spyware. The infamous software has the ability to hack even Apple devices and load malware to monitor and steal data--all through a well disguised malicious link.&nbsp;Reports say the NSO CEO claimed Facebook representatives approached the company to purchase the right to use specific capabilities of the Israeli spyware in October 2017, but the firm declined the sale on the grounds that it only sells its products to a "sovereign government or government agency".

Creating a digital bridge to fight coronavirus, the government of India has made an 'AarogyaSetu' mobile App. The app helps identify an individual's&nbsp;risk and tracks the spread of the novel coronavirus.&nbsp;It makes use of Bluetooth&nbsp;technology and artificial intelligence to do so. Once you install it, it detects other users with the&nbsp;AarogyaSetu App and calculates the risk of infection based on parameters like if any of these contacts has tested positive.&nbsp;The app is available in 11 languages and has been launched on both Android&nbsp;and iOS.

According to reports, vulnerabilities in Apple's Safari browser could have potentially let hackers take over a target's webcam and microphone on iOS and macOS devices. A security researcher found that a hacker could have exploited three bugs in the default browser through something as simple as one malicious link to be able to spy on a victim. The weakness in the Apple browser reportedly concerned the permissions it asked from a user for specific websites, and how easily it could be tricked into recognising a malicious threat as a legitimate page and grant it access. It's worth noting that the vulnerability has been since patched, and the security researcher used Apple's bug bounty program to alert the company, receiving $75,000 for the submission.

According to reports, Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi is working on a new 144-megapixel sensor. Although there&rsquo;s no official word, the gigantic camera sensor could reportedly feature in Xiaomi&rsquo;s Mi CC10 Pro or the Mi 10S Pro. This comes soon after the news that Samsung is developing a 150-megapixel nonacell sensor that is almost one-inch in size and can combine nine pixels together into a single pixel.

Disney+ streaming service is all set to launch in India on April 3rd, a week after its initial release date. The company had earlier postponed the dates after the IPL 2020 tournament was rescheduled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Unlike international markets, where it&rsquo;s been launched as an independent service, Disney+ content will feature in India&rsquo;s popular OTT service, Hotstar. All DIsney+ originals, including The Mandalorian, will be available to Disney+ Hotstar Premium users, the subscription for which costs ₹1,499 per year.

Zoom CEO Eric Yuan has apologised for the video conferencing app&rsquo;s many privacy and security issues even as daily users balloon to 200 million due to more people working from home amid the coronavirus pandemic. In a blog, Yuan said that Zoom will stop adding new features for the next 90 days and instead focus solely on addressing privacy issues. The app has recently been hit with what&rsquo;s come to be known as &lsquo;Zoombombing&rsquo; when people intrude on meetings and digital classes and even bombard chat participants with offensive content.

Google is publishing location data from users in 131 countries, including India, for governments to evaluate how effective their lockdown measures have been to fight the spread of the novel coronavirus pandemic. The downloadable Community Mobility Reports provide &ldquo;aggregated, anonymous data&rdquo; from users who have activated their Google&rsquo;s "location history" feature on their devices. According to a blog post by the search giant, the trends will display "a percentage point increase or decrease in visits" to locations like parks, shops, homes and places of work but not "the absolute number&rdquo;.

Google has reportedly announced $6.5 million in funding to fact-checkers and non-profit organisations fighting misinformation globally around the novel coronavirus. It&rsquo;s a part of Google News Initiative (GNI), which is also providing an online resource hub, dedicated training and crisis simulations for reporters covering the crisis all over the globe.

After much ado and a confusing soft launch, streaming service Disney+ has finally made landfall in India. It brings a variety of new shows and movies, including exclusive titles like The Mandalorian and films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Unlike international markets, Disney+ content in India will be integrated with popular OTT platform Hotstar, and the new content will be available as part of the Disney+ Hotstar Premium subscription that will cost ₹1,499.

Sony has introduced two new mid-range Bluetooth headphones, the true wireless WF-XB700 earbuds and the over-ear WH-CH710N. The earbuds have an in-ear design and are part of Sony's Extra Bass series of audio products. However, they don&rsquo;t feature any active noise-cancellation or gesture support, instead use physical buttons for controls. The WH-CH710N, on the other hand, features improved noise-cancellation over its predecessor with the help of dual microphones. It claims to have 35 hours of battery life. The true wireless earbud is priced at $130, while the wireless headphone costs $200.

Known for its Pegasus spyware that allows remote surveillance of smartphones, NSO Group Technologies from Israel may be providing its government with spyware to track people inside its borders. The move is reportedly in response to the spread of the novel coronavirus in Israel that has over 6,800 confirmed cases of Covid-19. Earlier in the week, Israeli Defense Minister Naftali Bennet confirmed that the administration was working on approving a new software to track citizens and enforce social distancing norms. Israel is reportedly already using phone location data from cell towers and card payment records to track people and prevent large gatherings. Sources claim the software tool in question traces a person's every step and analyzes their movements to assign a rating between 1 and 10 based on the likelihood they may be carrying the virus.
