What is wrong with Smartphones?

Smartphones were meant to be your pocket computer which could also make phone calls. And at first, it seemed as if that phones were truly becoming your pocket computer.

However, in recent times, smartphones are losing their usability. These phones were supposed to be tools for you to get work done. That no longer is the case in recent times. Flagship smartphones nowadays tend to basic features which made them so smart.

Flagship smartphones today tend to lack the most basic port! A headphone jack! Phone manufacturers no longer add useful features to the product but tend to bloat them with useless design flaws. Take the iPhone x, for example, it has a horrible notch at the top. The sole purpose of this notch is to differentiate the phone from the competition. It adds no improvement in functionality to the phone. All it does is worsen your media consumption experience.

Furthermore, Operating systems for these devices are getting bloated and resource hungry day by day. We need octa and deca core processors and 4 to 8GB of ram on a phone! Battery life is getting shorter and displays are getting bigger!

Take all screen phones! These phones instead of reducing the size of the phone, make them even bigger with large and power-hungry displays.
For me, 5-5.2 inch is all you need in a phone and manufacturers seem to continue to increase the display size to more than 6inches! This results in large devices and makes it unusable in one hand!

Phones will be a lot better if they had a reasonable display size and front-facing speakers, instead of those. The list of compromises is ever increasing and will some raise a question on whether to use one or not!

King Arhur the legend of misfortune !

King Arthur the legend of the sword: Before it was slaughtered by the critics', this was supposed to be an origin story for our hero Arthur portrayed brilliantly by Charlie Hunnam and is directed by the Sherlock Holmes Director Guy Richie. Richie tries his best to tell the story which has been told by several others before him in a new and interesting way. To his credit, he even achieves that to some extent. The movie tells the story of Arthur son of Uther, who is raised in a brothel and has grown up to be a thug of some sorts. Later on, he discovers he is the true king. A reality which he is not willing to admit. The movie feels unusually grounded, even though it is filled with mages and giant Elephant and an Octopus lady. Guy Richie gives the viewer reason to care for our protagonist and even creates a good antagonist in Jude Law. Jude Law plays the uncle of Arthur and the killer of his father. The build-up to the big fight is gripping and the supporting cast is stellar. ...

KG please don't make me go through this again F!

Hello readers, I have been down and out for what? A year maybe. But, fear not I am back again and will again claim to publish new blogs frequently! So, I for some reason decided to try a film of the Kannnada language. That film was called KGF. The film is about a rebel who is born into poverty with only his mother (whom he loses early in the movie.). The movie is the first part of the two parted series. The sequel will release sometime I don’t know when. Now, let’s talk about the movie. The film fails to live up to the hype big time! The pressure from the society is what drove me into watching this “masterpiece”, only to find the same old Indian movie formula baked again with different actors. The story has been told several time, it is by no means new. Furthermore, the direction is poor and jarring at best. The action scenes are age old, hero making goons float with one punch, the acting is loud and tone deaf. The side characters have no layer, no motive. The villain is t...
