Nintendo will soon launch its latest console, Switch, in March. There have been a lot of games confirmed for this device. However, there is one particular game that is bigger than the size of Nintendo Switch memory!
A game is already bigger than Nintendo Switch memory
The Nintendo Switch has been said to cost about $300. That includes all types of gadgets inside the box. However, today is the right day to remember that there is not a microSD card included in the package, which you are going to need if you want to buy your game digitally in 2017. Nintendo has recently released the storage requirement of some of the launch game titles, and one of them, Dragon Quest Heroes, will require 32GB, more than the available Switch memory (32GB minus system files storage). That is huge compared to Zelda Breath of the Wild (13.4GB), Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (7GB), or Disgaea (5.9GB). Note that those are the downloadable sizes of the games, not the cartridge version.
The microSD card is not new, as Nintendo has already talked about this topic before. The company has shared before that the Nintendo Switch will have 32GB of storage, and some will be reserved for system files. Internal storage can be expanded via a microSDXC card of up to 2TB. External USB drives are not supported at launch, but the company promised to expand that option in future updates. The save files will be in the internal memory, while the data that can be redownloaded will be stored in the microSDXC card.
However, that was before we know of the memory requirement of the games. Initially, an external memory seems more of a luxury to players. Now that the information is available, a microSDXC card seems more like a necessity with the Switch, since players will be likely to have 2-4 games to play. So, as a reminder, if you plan to buy the new Nintendo device at launch, prepare some extra cash for a sufficient external Switch memory card.
Switch memory: Will it be a problem?
The Nintendo Switch will launch next week, at the start of March. Hopefully the Switch memory will not cause big problems for users. Are you excited for the device?

Nokia 8 vs Nokia 9: specs comparison
Nokia has confirmed they would bring Nokia 8 and two other devices to MWC 2017. But Nokia 9 is still only a rumor so far. Anyway, with all the information we’ve got so far, let’s make a hardware comparison between the two. In terms of Nokia 8 specs, it will be powered by a Snapdragon 835 octa-core with 6GB RAM. Meanwhile, Nokia 9 is also said to use a Snapdragon 835 octa-core processor, along with 6GB of RAM. Well, it seems like these two have the same components after all.
So, moving on to the camera aspect where there are some minor differences. Nokia 8 cameras feature a 24MP rear camera and a 12MP selfie camera. The back camera comes along with OIS and dual-LED flash, capable of recording 2160p@30fps videos. Meanwhile, Nokia 9 boasts a 24MP Carl Zeiss back camera and a 13MP camera on the front. Base on these details, Nokia 9 camera set up sounds slightly better.
Other differences between these two phones are the display and storage. Nokia 8 will have a 5.7″ 2K display, while Nokia 9 will feature a 6″ 2K screen resolution. Nokia 8 is available with 64/128GB ROM and Nokia 9 is available with 256GB ROM. Overall, in this Nokia 8 vs Nokia 9 battle, 9 is clearly bigger (and better) than 8.
Nokia 8 vs Nokia 9: price
Yester, a leak from China confirmed the price tag of Nokia 8. The phone is said to be around $465 ~ Rs. 31000. However, there is no way to confirm the authenticity of this information, so take it with a grain of salt. Meanwhile, there’s no report on Nokia 9 price tag. With so many rumors around lately, it’s hard to keep up with everything. So make sure to stay tuned as we’ll bring you the latest news at MWC 2017 where Nokia will release 3 new devices.
Nokia 9 has been leaked online recently and blows our mind because of its incredible specs. Huawei Honor V9 has just been launched today. Let’s read the article to know if Nokia 9 vs Huawei Honor V9: who will win?
Nokia 9 vs Huawei Honor V9: 6GB RAM battle
Both Nokia 9 and Huawei Honor V9 are the brand new flagships that their manufacturers count on a lot when launched. They all come with up to 6GB of RAM. Nokia 9 is said to be powered by the latest Snapdragon 835 of Qualcomm while Huawei Honor V9 comes with a strong HiSilicon Kirin 960 processor. As we can see, this is gonna be a tough battle between two powerful monsters in the market.
As for the cameras, Nokia 9 will sport a 24MP rear camera paired with a 13MP front shooter. Meanwhile, Huawei Honor V9 features a dual 12MP + 12MP main camera on the back along with an 8MP selfie snapper on the front. Although supporting the similar primary camera, the secondary camera on Nokia 9 is clearly better than Honor V9’s. Thus, Nokia 9 wins this cameras battle.
In terms of other specs, it is reported that Nokia 9 will mount a huge 6.0-inch 2K display. Coming with the same 2K display, Honor V9 screen size is only 5.7 inches. Nokia 9 will be packed with up to 256GB of internal storage which is bigger than 128GB inside the Huawei smartphone. However, the ROM of Honor V9 is able to expand via micro SD while Nokia 9 ROM is non-expandable. Moreover, V9 is fueled by a big 4,000mAh battery. The battery in Nokia 9 is still a mystery.
Nokia 9 vs Huawei Honor V9: price battle
Huawei Honor V9 price comes at least around $435 for each and will be officially on sale on February 28th. One more thing I would like to remind you that Huawei Honor V9 will also be called Honor 8 Pro. Otherwise, there is no information about Nokia 9 price. It is expected to be unveiled at the MWC in late this month. Stay tuned to update more!
If you’re still wondering whether to by an Apple product or not, this article will help you make the right decision! Here are 5 reason to buy iPhone 7 Plus.
Reasons To Buy iPhone 7 Plus
The first reason is the dual camera setup. Dual cameras may not be some ground breaking technology today, but the camera set up on iPhone 7 Plus is quite remarkable. The phone feature dual 12MP f/1.8 and f/2.8 rear cameras with quad-LED flash, capable of recording 260p@30fps videos. On the front is a single 7MP f/2.2 shooter, capable of taking 1080p@30fps videos. The second reason is its battery life. The phone has a much bigger battery than any other iPhone from Apple. According to test results, the 2900mAh battery can last up to 21 hours on a daily usage.
Size is the third reason to buy iPhone 7 Plus. This one is quite obvious, the phone uses a 5.5″ screen, which is equal to many other flagships from Samsung, HTC, LG and Sony. But keep in mind that the resolution is only 1080 x 1920 pixels (Full HD). Moving on to the fourth reason: bigger storage option. Apple has finally ditched the 16GB ROM model and moved onto the 32GB ROM version for its iPhone series. The OS only takes around 8GB so ditching the 16GB ROM option is a viable move from Apple.
The last but not least reason is IP67. This is one of the most request features Apple fans have been asking for in the last few years. Even though the phone is water resistant, you still shouldn’t take it to the sea because salt water will corrode the protective sealing inside the chassis.
Reasons To Buy iPhone 7 Plus: Cons
Despite all the great things we said about it, the iPhone 7 Plus as well as the whole iPhone 7 series from Apple still has one major flaw: the loss of the headphone jack. It’s quite annoying and causes lots of hassle for phone owners. So if you want to buy the iPhone 7 Plus right now, prepare to live without charging and listening to music at the same time.

A new color option for the iPhone 7 will be available in the near future. Yes, iPhone 7 Red version is coming, but the supplies will be extremely limited.
Apple iPhone 7 Red: The New Beauty
Originally, both the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are only available in 5 color options: Jet Black, Black, Silver, Gold and Rose Gold. But now, it seems like Apple is working on a new color option for these two models. However, the supplies are extremely limited right now. Industry reports indicated there are only around 200 – 300 units manufactured each day. Right now, Apple is planning to increase order for the Red version, but the company will need to survey market demand first.
As for iPhone 7 Red specs, it features a 4.7″ 750 x 1334 pixels resolution, protected by Ion-strengthened glass and oleophobic coating. The phone also has IP67 certified – dust and water resistant. Apple iPhone 7 is powered by an Apple A10 2.34GHz quad-core, along with 2GB RAM and 32/128/256GB ROM. iPhone 7 cameras are the most notable specs. The phone is mounted with a 12MP f/1.8 cameras on the back with OIS and quad-LED flash, capable of taking 2160p@30fps videos. The front camera is 7MP f/2.2, capable of recording 1080p@120fps videos.
The biggest downside about this device is the lack of a 3.5mm audio jack. You probably have heard this a million times as everyone on the internet complains about it. So if you can’t live without your headphone or just don’t want to spend more for a wireless earpod, skip out on this and wait for the new iPhone.
Apple iPhone 7 Red: What do you think?
For now, it’s still not clear whether the new iPhone 7 Red will be sold at the same price tag like the previous color options. Now we just need to sit back and wait for Apple to announce the news (and the price of course). In the meantime, tell us what you think about this new color in the comment below.

The release date of Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4 is getting closer. A recent leak on Twitter announced both the date and price of this new smartphone.
Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4: Water-resistant Design
The phone has made it appearance on many online news since January. And in the last few weeks, the phone was spotted several times on many benchmark software like GFXBench and GeekBench.

In terms of Galaxy Xcover 4 specs, it will feature a 4.8″ HD display screen. The phone will be powered by an Exynos 7570 1.4GHz quad-core chipset and Mali-T720 GPU.

The phone is mounted with a 13MP back camera and a 5MP selfie camera.
The phone will target mid-range consumer, leaving the premium market for Samsung’s Galaxy Active series. However, both series are not designed for average users, so specs don’t really matter.
