The Xiaomi Mi Note performs and responds well to the apps and games in general, but with the Snapdragon 801 processor you have to be a little careful as the device heats up fast. However, the metal and glass body takes care of that with ease. Overall, the Mi Note definitely looks and feels more premium than what the brand is asking for it. A lot depends on how the company prices the device in India. A very compelling option if you can wait till it launches.
Sony's Xperia M2 Dual is a solid contender in the mid-range dual-SIM segment, and though it faces stiff competition, manages to stand out among the crowd. Let's take a look at how it fares...
The Asus Zenfone 6 is a good option for this who are looking for a big-screened smartphone in a limited budget. The device, offers some good looks, decent hardware specifications, a brilliant camera and a eye appealing display

Our review of the Cyanogen-flayoured Yureka, the first offering from Micromax-backed brand YU. In a nutshell, we think that the Yureka is a very compelling buy for its asking price of Rs 8,999, but don't let that act as a spoiler... flick through the slides for a full loawdown.
The Japanese brand Panasonic has been launching a slew of devices ever since its re-entry in the Indian market last year.

The Zenfone series marks a fresh attempt from ASUS to make its mark in the burgeoning smartphone sector in India. Whether it will be successful or not is something that only time will tell, but we've spent some quality time with the Zenfone 5 ourselves. The design looks good, but the features boasted by the ZenUI and the camera are quite something. Here's a review of the ASUS Zenfone 5, due to land in India very soon....
The Oppo R5 comes with a nice set of features offering great functionality, above all the build quality offered by the device is amazing, and there are barely any flaws with the design except the missing 3.5mm audio connector, which takes away some part of the functionality. If you are looking for a smartphone with a powerful snapper, the R5 is certainly not the one and as its closest competition the Yu Yureka, beats the R5 in every domain and mostly in the price by being available at one third of its cost. But, if you are looking for a well built device which you can flaunt, the R5 is there for you, however you would be paying heavily for looks.
The Moto E is a solid and compelling Android smartphone in the budget segment. Here's a quick review of the Moto E in pictures, explaining the gist of why we love the device, and where it fails...
The Galaxy Alpha marks a departure from Samsung’s usual design philosophy, and rocks top-notch specs too. Features like the built-in fingerprint scanner and heart rate monitor we saw on the Galaxy S5 have made their way to the Alpha too, but sadly, the latter isn’t impervious to water like its more accomplished sibling. With the metal frame as its mainstay, we wanted to know whether the Galaxy Alpha can impress us overall as a compelling option and prove its mettle as a worthy daily driver. And that’s exactly what we hope to accomplish with this review.

The Apple iPhone is one of the most iconic gadgets ever, and so far, the brand has always focussed on the device’s one-handed utility. Giving in to the market dynamics and the ever-increasing demand from its loyal fan-following, Apple has now gone the phablet way… and the result is the iPhone 6 Plus.

The 5-inch smartphone boasts a solid build quality and reasonable specs, and from what we've seen, comes across as a dependable workhorse. Here's a quick review of the BlackBerry Z3, covering its specs, features, interface, camera and performance.
As Xiaomi enters India with Mi 3, it's important to understand what it brings to a market which is dominated by Samsung, Nokia and Micromax.
When it come to hardware, the Mi 3 is a clear winner. Top of the line hardware at one-third the cost of a Samsung S5 is a no brainer. But what's really going to make it successful is the software it carries. MiUi V5, while inspired, is a clear winner; using the best of iOS and stock Android. It has something for both the Average Users and the Power Users.

Xiaomi - Germany market entry marketing strategy - MBA, HULT International Bu...Friedrich Arnold
The strategic opportunity for Xiaomi in the German smartphone category is to gain 5% market share by Q1 2016. This opportunity arose from Xiaomi’s critical ecosystem of competitive advantages enabling the manufacturer to create superior value to German consumers for a lower price than the current market leader, Samsung.
After evaluating the two strategic alternatives, entering or not entering the German market, I concluded to Enter the German market, invest RMB 59 MM upfront to breakeven during the 2015 Christmas sales and achieve a 5% market share by Q1 2016.
This marketing plan was part of the International Marketing course with Prof. Marco Protano at HULT International Business School.

The mobile industry in India seems to be growing prodigiously. That’s evident from our half-yearly mobile phone landscape reports as well, since the number of phones being launched in the country has increased year-on-year. Up until now that is. The year 2016, so far, seems to be defying the trend as the number of launches declined for the first time in three years. Not just that, the first half of the year was quite different as compared to previous years, be it in terms of shifting consumer preferences for price segments, or Chinese brands giving stiff competition to indigenous and established multinational manufacturers.
So, here's a comprehensive look at the state of affairs in the Indian mobile phone industry in H1 2016.
There’s little doubt that the mobile industry in India is growing at an unprecedented pace. But to put things in perspective, the real question is how fast it’s growing, especially when compared to the previous years? Well, to answer that question we’ve been bringing out comprehensive reports on the state of mobile phone market in India since the past couple of years, and now is time to take a closer look at the happenings in the sector in the year 2015. So, without further ado, let’s see what defined the smartphone market last year.
With so many launches and new brands entering the rapidly-growing phone market in the subcontinent, it's important to take a step back and get a macroscopic look at the state of the Indian phone market. Our past reports have revealed some interesting insights about the launches, spec trends as well as consumers' ever-changing interests. The first six months of 2015 revealed many surprises as well, and our report takes a comprehensive look at those trends.

The Metaverse and AI: how can decision-makers harness the Metaverse for their...Jen Stirrup
The Metaverse is popularized in science fiction, and now it is becoming closer to being a part of our daily lives through the use of social media and shopping companies. How can businesses survive in a world where Artificial Intelligence is becoming the present as well as the future of technology, and how does the Metaverse fit into business strategy when futurist ideas are developing into reality at accelerated rates? How do we do this when our data isn't up to scratch? How can we move towards success with our data so we are set up for the Metaverse when it arrives?
How can you help your company evolve, adapt, and succeed using Artificial Intelligence and the Metaverse to stay ahead of the competition? What are the potential issues, complications, and benefits that these technologies could bring to us and our organizations? In this session, Jen Stirrup will explain how to start thinking about these technologies as an organisation.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

11. Pricing & Verdict
Price:
Rs 9,999
“Even if you choose to use the Redmi Note 4G with 3G
data, it's still one of the best smartphones in the sub-Rs
10,000 category. It does get some stiff competition from
the YU Yureka, but has the advantage of also being sold
offline through Airtel flagship stores. Overall, the Xiaomi
Redmi Note 4G scores where it counts, and even if the
regular Redmi Note does go back on sale, we would still
suggest you shell out the extra Rs 1,000 for the 4G
version. It’s worth every penny.”
