League of Legends: the world’s biggest game.

There are more players falling in love with LOL. Honestly, this is not just a game. LOL has become a true e-sport, which attracts tons of players. So, what is this game? To start with, LOL is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game, made by Riot Games. It allows players to create their own team and hold the battle online. There are two teams per match, five people in each, and the goal is to destroy the rival’s team base before they do the same.

As we are writing this article, there are over 100 million monthly players. That is a huge number which makes League of Legends to be the biggest game in the world. The closest rival of LOL is “Dota 2”, a MOBA from Valve, with just 13 million players monthly. LOL’s gameplay is similar to Dota 2, but Riot Games has brought their own unique touch as well.

League of Legends

One of the highlighted features of LOL is the frequent live events. Brandon Beck – one of the founders of Riot Games, said: “The coolest thing in LOL is actually when we’re at the live events and get to meet fans directly. Only then does it start to feel real. Otherwise, they’re just numbers on a screen all over the world”. These events help make the LOL community grow bigger and stronger.

League of Legends: Why is it the most attractive game?

Generally, League of Legends has gorgeous character’s design. The game simulates many famous heroes that might make you fall in love at the first look. Besides, LOL has some enhanced features over Dota, which are frequently updated maps, a good system of skill sets, good integration of in-game environments, and interactions between players through in-game and real-life events. So, do you want to try the world’s biggest game?

Tech explained: 2.5D Screen Glass and how it protects your phones

The 2.5D screen glass doesn’t refer to the 2.5 dimensional space but rather refers to the screen design. Here is all you need to know about this term.

2.5D glass display

2.5D Screen Glass – an unofficial name for curved screen design

The name doesn’t imply that a 2.5D screen glass will have a 2.5 dimensional phone display. On the other hand, the 2.5D screen glass is just an unofficial call-name for mobile screen design of screens that have slightly curved edges. The new design might not be easily noticed from afar. However, the moment you hold a phone with 2.5D display in your hand, you will be able to see and feel the difference.

The display screen on the phone won’t be curved or bent in the general sense, but the screen will have a slight  curvature at the edge – also called a contoured edge. In short, the screen will be strictly flat (2D) but it won’t have straight (90 degree) glass edges. The design will give the smartphones a more elegantly smooth look while giving them a softer and sleeker feel. Some smartphones that have already applied the 2.5 screen displays – among many-are Xiaomi Mi Note and iPhone 6.

2.5D screen glass phones

Overall, the 2.5 screen displays aren’t any weaker or harder than traditional flat displays. They are just practically different at the very edges, and do not have their display noticeably bent like in Samsung’s Galaxy Note Edge to give a 3D effect. The 2.5 screens can still be strengthened using hardening techniques (like those that use Corning Gorilla Glass). The only slight difficulty for some users would be to find additional screen protectors that would perfectly fit the 2.5 glass contours.

The 2.5D screens are as hard as traditional 2D screens but are much smoother.

The 2.5D screen glass just simply implies screens with contoured edges. They are becoming more widely used by smartphone manufacturers due to their aesthetic benefits and physical smooth user experiences.

Should we use up all the battery capacity of smartphones before charging?

Battery has always been a concern for smartphone lovers. Today we will bring out a controversial topic: Should we use up all the battery capacity before charging it?

battery capacity hihi

Battery capacity: Everything has changed

There have been lots of arguments about when we should charge out smartphones. Some insist that it should be when the battery is at around 20%. Others claim that the battery should be entirely used up before it gets charged. So which is true? In the past, the battery technology like nickel-metal hydrid or nickel cadmium didn’t allow the battery itself to remember its own maximum capacity. That’s why users back then had to use up all the battery capacity before charging to make sure it doesn’t forget its maximum capacity.

However, the new lithium-ion battery which is used in most current smartphones is different. The new battery technology is not that “forgetful”. In fact, lithium-ion battery knows its maximum capacity so that users don’t have to do the step above to “remind” the battery of its capacity. At this point, some of you may argue that everytime we discharge and recharge the phone, the battery life span will decrease a bit, and as a result, it’s quite wasteful to start charging when the battery is still 20% and above!

battery capacity

Here’s the answer to that argument: the battery life span DOES decrease after long time use, but with the new technology, the decrease does not depend on the times we charge. In fact, it depends on the charging cycle. To be more specific, you finish a charging cycle after you have used 100% of the battery capacity. The good thing is this cycle can be separated in to smaller, discontinuous periods. For example, if you use 50% of the battery then recharge it back to 100% in one day and the next day you continue to use 50% more, you will complete one cycle!

Battery capacity: So what’s the answer?

So the conclusion is: with current smartphones, you don’t have to wait until 100% of the battery capacity is depleted to start charging it. You can charge your smartphone whenever you want to because the time you charge your phone doesn’t affect the life span of the battery. It’s the charging cycle that does! So just charge your phone whenever you feel that it is necessary. You don’t even have to charge your phone fully! Hopefully with this knowledge, you can enjoy using your phone more!

Why was the physical iPhone 7 Home button removed?

On the first glance, you won’t be able to see it, but the physical iPhone 7 Home button is no longer there. Curious why? Here are the reasons behind it.

iphone 7 home button

The things that led to the physical iPhone 7 Home button removal

The iPhone 7 came with many surprises this year. Aside from the groundbreaking headset jack removal and the introduction of new wireless AirPods, the new iPhone got another big change: removal of the mechanic Home button. The old version of iPhone Home button got replaced by a static button that is force sensitive. The reasons behind the big change are: the big amount of users not actually using the mechanical button, and the future prospects of making the phone waterproof.

A lot of users didn’t use the physical Home button because they were concerned with the button’s durability. Many users believed that with time the Home key will loose its sensitivity and will break after being pressed many times a day. Even though the old Home buttons were very durable and could withstood years of use, Apple still decided to replace them with new static iPhone 7 Home button. It was done to battle the misconception about the Home key.

iphone 7 home button 1

The technological change of iPhone 7 Home button, however, opened the door to other possible technological advancements. Since the new Home key is now digitized and the headset jack is removed, the new iPhone can now be water resistant and dust resistant. This factor and the prospects of being able to further improve the phones, are strong reasons for Apple to change.

New static Home button can lead to many improvements

Apple’s change in the structure of iPhone 7 Home button was a good step towards making the phone more dust and water resistant. In addition to that, there might be more technological improvements coming their way.

iPhone 7 Antutu: defeating OnePlus 3 to be the King

OnePlus 3 is now no longer the King of Antutu as best performance smartphones. Now, this place belongs to iPhone 7. iPhone 7 Antutu scores of more than 170,000 will be the new King on this Antutu list.

iPhone 7 Antutu scores: surpassing every other phone!

In the first half of this year, OnePlus 3 was the King of Antutu for performance smartphones. With the scores of 140,288, it still stands in the first place of the Antutu top performance smartphones chart for August. However, it can’t keep this spot any longer. The latest OnePlus flagship can not compete with the newcomer from Apple – iPhone 7.

iPhone 7 has just been tested through the app with the amazing scores of 178,397. Compared to iPhone 6s last year (132,620 points), iPhone 7 is 1.3 times stronger. Apple A9 is a strong processor. It only stands behind SND 820 on the Antutu benchmark. Now, A10 Fusion is even stronger with 40% faster performance.

It packs 2GB of RAM paired with 32/128/256GB of non-expandable inbuilt storage.

Apple iPhone 7 comes with a 4.7-inch Retina HD display and a 1960mAh battery capacity.

iPhone 7 Antutu: can Apple A10 Fusion surpass SND 821?

With huge scores like that, iPhone 7 with A10 Fusion chipset is the toughest rival for any phones. It already takes the crown from OnePlus 3 which has the highest scores for more than half the year. However, can this chipset defeat SND 821? Antutu used to test the predecessors of these chipsets. And SND 820 beats A9 from Apple to be in the 1st spot. So, this time, will this happen again? SND 821 will defeat A10? Or A10 will rise to the number 1 place?
