Edgy Microsoft

So last year I made a list and ranked the best Android internet browser. I chose Brave Browser as the number 1. But little did I knew back then that Microsoft was about to take the android ecosystem by storm!

Microsoft has launched and updated plenty of their apps. One of the new apps is Microsoft Edge. The best browser for Android.
It nails the basics, but it is the extras that make it stand apart. First of all the browser is stable. Like really stable, something which Brave Browser lacked. Then it syncs with your PC and stores your data on your Microsoft account. Add to that the built in QR scanner.


Then there are the big features. It has two of them. Firstly, it includes and built in ad blocker. A life saver! I believe it is a must for any modern browser because, the modern internet is garbage and is filled with ad and trackers scouring for your data.
The next big feature which I adore is the ability to continue your work on your PC with a simple tap!
Microsoft is serious about its apps and the Edge browser shows that Microsoft is in it to win it!

Flagships no longer required?

The last time I used a flagship phone, was way back in 2013 and it was the Galaxy S4. The Exynos variant to be exact, back in 2013 Exynos was not cool. It was miles behind its Snapdragon counterpart and it was visible. My experience with the S4 was horrible. So horrible, that in fact, I haven't had the courage to purchase another Flagship since then on. After that, I switched boat and jumped to the WindowsPhone clad. My first taste of WindowsPhone was from a Lumia 520. The cheapest WindowsPhone! But, the performance at times was better than my less than a year old flagship Galaxy. WindowsPhone was fluid even on extreme budget hardware. Later on, I upgraded to a Lumia 730, which to date I adore. It is for me the best phone ever! The only place where it lacked would be the storage. Then I jumped shipped again to Android and am now using a Redmi 4x. So the point behind me going through my phone purchasing history is to show, that you do not need to break the bank or sel...

Pocket

Pocket Nowadays everyone has more than one computing device. Be it your desktop, laptop, smartphone, 2-1 PC or a tablet, everyone of use at least uses a couple of this devices together in tandem. And everyone needs a good browser to surf the internet ! this leads to a problem. A problem which pocket solves in the most simplistic of ways. I for one use Firefox on my pc and chrome on my phone. As a result it makes it really difficult for me keep a track of my bookmarks ! I mean did save that article on my pc or phone ? Pocket solves that problem by creating extension for popular browsers like Firefox and chrome, in fact it is a built in feature in Firefox ! It simply adds a button called save to pocket( ), by just clicking that button the page which you are currently on will be bookmarked and saved to pocket. Which can then viewed from any device that has the pocket app and is logged in with your pocket account.
