Featured Question

Google s Pixel Tablet may have appeared at FCC

A new Google device surfaced at the FCC today that could well be the upcoming Pixel Tablet. At the FCC, the tablet appeared under Google's ID as A4RGTU8P. However, A4RGTU8P is not the model number of the upcoming Google Pixel tablet. This device is listed as "Wireless Device", which is a fairly generic description. Nowhere in these documents is it referred to as a tablet. The device supports Bluetooth LE, WiFi 6 and UWB. While that's not the most concrete proof that this is actually the Pixel Tablet, what else could it be?

The Polish app will tell when and when the ads will end. You can return from the bathroom to your favorite series

There is nothing worse than breaking your favorite program with an advertising block. We are happy about the action, and here come chocolate or sanitary napkins. Thanks to the Advoider Lite application, we will never feel surprised by the advertising break. I'm surprised that no one has ever created an application to inform about ads. The idea seems to be quite simple, I found only reports about the competition under the KoniecReklamTV brand on the Internet. That is why I took a closer look at Advoider. Advoider Lite will inform you when we can expect advertising. With surprisingly high accuracy, he will indicate how many minutes we will have a break in the program. We can add channels to the watchers and receive notifications about the end and beginning of ads - so that we can get back from the bathroom or kitchen. In addition, we can set an advance for notification, e.g. 2 minutes before the end of the advertising block. How it's working? Qdiqo, or t

Good display on your smartphone, or what? We advise you on what to do when you buy

What is the difference between a screen in a cheap phone and a screen in a flagship model? And is it worth paying extra for better quality? It's really not easy to compare displays on phones today through the prism of dry technical specifications. For the layman, they all look the same - we have 6 "on the phone for PLN 1200, we have 6" on the phone for PLN 3,800. We have a resolution of 2340 x 1080 on a smartphone for less than PLN 1500, and in such for over PLN 2,000. And since the difference can not be seen on paper ... what is the difference between the screen on an inexpensive smartphone and the one from the top shelf? It's all about technology The main difference between the displays is the technology in which they were made. Buying a phone for less than PLN 1500, you can basically be sure of buying a device with an IPS LCD screen, i.e. a liquid crystal display. Such a display has, for example, the Motorola Moto G7 Plus, costing about PLN

Hate speech? Freedom of speech? It s time to explain a few things

Hate speech is nothing new, and yet we are unable to deal with it. We belittle its consequences, we say that these are only words, we repeat, we repeat nonsense about the protection of freedom of speech. It's time to explain a few things. You read it, so you have internet, you have internet, so you met with it. Hate speech applies to all of us. The same person may use hate speech and be a victim of it. One of the organizers of the debate "I do not hate, I'm rocking" Jurek Owsiak knows it well. At the Museum of the History of Polish Jews, POLIN and his guests discussed what to do to build a dam for the hate wave. An intangible definition. What is hate speech? Although hate speech is punishable in Poland, it has no legal definition. This would be difficult to create, because its borders are difficult to grasp, definitions often depend on the context, sometimes they are subjective. And yet we recognize her instinctively, we can point our finger wh

3 times YES, 3 times NO. I spent two weeks with Fujifilm X-T30

I spent two weeks with Fujifilm X-T30. This camera is completely out of my fairy tale, which ... completely charmed me. I'm not a fan of the so-called "Travel cameras", I will not hide it. Small, uncomfortable, in most cases made just like this and doing such pictures. I knew, however, that the Fuji cameras are a bit different, especially since I have heard a lot of good things about many people about Fujifilm X-T20. And when Fuji showed the new model, X-T30, I knew I wanted to check it out. After nearly two weeks of communing with this camera, I must admit that if every "travel camera" looked and acted, the world of photography would be a much more beautiful place. I will not cover you with technical specifications and details here - I will not send you back to the first impressions written by Krzysiek Basel. Here we will focus on three things that I liked very much about Fujifilm X-T30 and three that could be improved. The first YES

Is it twice cheaper twice as bad? Xiaomi Mi 9 - camera review

Xiaomi Mi 9 is a flagship smartphone at a price twice lower than other top devices. How does the camera of this smartphone fall out on this background? If the smartphone is 2 thousand. PLN cheaper than standard models, it must have some compromises. At first glance, they can not be seen at all, because Xiaomi Mi 9 surprises with the presence of three lenses, just like the most important rivals in the market. Xiaomi Mi 9 is equipped with a triple camera module, containing three lenses with different angles of view. The main camera has a resolution of 48 megapixels and a popular matrix IMX586 with a diagonal 1/2 inches with a pixel size of 0.8 micrometres. In the default mode, the camera takes 12 megapixel photos by combining four pixels into one. The lens's brightness is f / 1.7 and, unfortunately, it is not stabilized. The second module is based on a telephoto lens with a brightness of f / 2.2, also without optical stabilization. It has a double magnifi
