The Galaxy S7, S7 edge trap you into their worlds, the G5 attempts to create one

“It’s Not a Phone, It’s a Galaxy” may have seemed to some to be nothing more than a commercial jab at Apple, but it has become a philosophy for Samsung: to make its Galaxy smartphones worlds (galaxies) of their own. And this strategy is paying off big-time for the Korean giant, with the latest Galaxy S7/S7 edge unveiling being yet another opportunity for Samsung to showcase its strengths and growth over the last 12 months. If you believed the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge were enticing worlds, then you’ll be pleased to know that their successors highlight their all-encompassing nature even more.
Samsung retained the glass and metal design of the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge, but the company waterproofed the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge “from the inside out” this time – taking these devices to better water resistance than their Galaxy S5 predecessor. The IP68 water and dust resistance means you can be confident that your devices will outlive the water (just make sure you read that new manual, though; it comes with some information on water and dust resistance that may save you trouble down the road).
The Galaxy S7 and S7 edge have better lowlight performance than their predecessors, meaning that photos in low light have never been as good as they’ll get with the f/1.7 camera apertures of both the front 5MP camera and the back 12MP Sony IMX260 camera. The Galaxy S7 and S7 edge now have Always On Displays that take advantage of our inherent need to “check our phones,” on average, about 150 times a day, and the Galaxy S7 edge now has quicker apps and content access so that you can spend time “swiping on the edge” and appreciating the aesthetic beauty of your smartphone while “living on the edge” for productivity.

New Miriads of Emojis onn the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge

Samsung’s new flagship handsets come with 159 new emojis as well as a number of additional emoji font changes. This is the first time that Samsung has added a new set of emoji since it released the Galaxy S5 back in 2014. Most of the additions come from Unicode 7.0 and Unicode 8.9 releases, however as we’ve seen on other platforms, some previous Unicode characters given emoji status retroactively have also been added.
Some of the new emoji that can be found in the Galaxy S7 include the robot face, hot dog, burrito, nerd face and even the middle finger. The entire list of new additions can be viewed here. The Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge come with the new emoji right out of the box and existing Galaxy devices that get the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update will get the new emojis as well.

T-Mobile Galaxy S7 Pre-Order Comes out more Early than expected

It’s hard to wait for your brand new smartphone to arrive once you’ve placed a pre-order and are just counting down the days till it ships. Pre-orders for the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge were opened on February 23 and the Samsung has declared March 11 as the official release date in 60 countries. However, it’s not uncommon to see carriers ship out units ahead of time, T-Mobile did it last year with the Galaxy S6 and it appears to be doing it again with the Galaxy S7.
Shipping notices have started to arrive for several T-Mobile customers who pre-ordered the flagship handsets from Magenta. Several reddit users reached out to T-Mobile through its official Twitter account and were told by representatives that devices that have already been ordered are being packed and getting ready to ship out on Monday, February 29. They may reach customers in a couple of days depending upon the shipping option they chose. If this is indeed true it would mean that customers would get their hands on the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge before the devices are even available in stores on March 11. Looks like several T-Mobile customers will receive the new flagships over the new couple of days, and they say Christmas only comes once a year.

I Did Not Shun Workers' Debate- Kwara State Governor


Kwara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed has denied reports in a section of the media that he shunned a debate organised by the State Joint Labor Congress yesterday in Ilorin.
Speaking through his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Communications, Dr. Muyideen Akorede, Governor Ahmed said on the contrary he was unable to participate in the debate due to his attendance at the National Council of State meeting which held in Abuja on Thursday.
Governor Ahmed said he informed the Chairman of the state council of Nigeria Labor Congress (NLC) Comrade Umar Farouk of his inability to attend the event before his departure for Abuja to attend the crucial meeting, which discussed vital issues of national interest.

                          
He commended Kwara for the organizing the debate as part of their contribution to the development of the nation’s democracy, adding that he continues to hold the leadership and membership of the state labor congress in high esteem as partners in development. 

Governor Ahmed expressed a willingness to engage with the workers as part of a series of stakeholder meetings he intends to hold to deepen his administration’s engagement with the public in line with its commitment to transparency and accountability to the people.

Why I Chose To Start A Record Label- Laide Bakare


New mom, Laide Bakare who has become a mom for the 3rd time visited hiptv studio recently where she hinted that she attended New York film academy while away in the States. Laide also used the opportunity to talk about how the academy made her love music, something she was never interested in. Hear her;

“It’s an inspiration from New York film academy. When I was studying film making, I got to appreciate and understand music more than ever. Because I have been in the industry for so long and it has been movies all the way, am not a music person but right there at the New York movie academy I got to study a whole lot about music and I tend to appreciate music. Looking back here in Nigeria, there are a lot of young talent who are willing to showcase what they have and they don’t really have platform for it because most record labels are like cabals it’s difficult to break in so am gonna take up the challenge and establish a record label for upcoming talents and sell them to the whole world”.
