Huawei becomes the # 1 seller in the global mobile market

Four months on the podium, Huawei has been a world leader in sales since April, ousting Samsung from that first place it has held for a long time. A new report by Until this year Samsung reigned in mobile sales worldwide, however, Huawei has managed to take that position away from it during that second quarter of 2020. The Chinese company has sold 55.8 million devices, a figure that has earned it that rise in the ranking, but not without noticing the drop in sales due to the pandemic.

CES 2021 will not be held physically in Las Vegas: it will be in online format

A new event joins the trend of the digital format: the Consumer Electronics Show, the world's largest technology fair, will be held 100% online in January 2021. To guarantee health security and prevent possible contagions, since last February most of the major mass events around the world have been suspended.  A good part of them, such as the presentations of new technological products, have been converted to the online format, and now another of the major fairs in the sector announces that it is joining this trend.  This is CES 2021 : Consumer Technology Association (CTA), the association in charge of organizing the event,  has announced  that next January,  the world's largest and most important technology fair will  not be held in Las Vegas like every year, It  will take place in a fully digital format .  The reasons for this decision are clear: despite the fact that there are still a few months until January, the organization prefers not to host large crowds of people to p

The physical edition of Microsoft Flight Simulator on 10 DVDs is a nostalgic tribute to the gamers of the 90s

Microsoft Flight Simulator flight simulator has a release date.  And it comes with a physical edition that will shed a tear of nostalgia for gamers of the 90s. Microsoft surprised everyone a few months ago when it announced  the release of Microsoft Flight Simulator .  First, because it is  a pure and simple flight simulator , a very popular genre decades ago, but that today is completely niche.  And second, because it  is a game developed for PC , although it will have a console version, but without a date.  And now it announces another surprise:  there will be a physical version, and it will occupy 10 DVDs. Physical editions on PC are increasingly scarce, as almost the entire market revolves around Steam.  And when they exist, many of them are just a plastic box with a code to activate the game on Steam, Origin, UPlay etc.  They also include a 100-page manual, only in limited collector's editions.  So it is surprising that Microsoft has commissioned simulator specialists

Raspberry Pi improves YouTube quality in its latest update

Watching YouTube videos with good image quality from a Raspberry Pi is getting easier.  One of the latest updates to the Raspberry operating system includes news in this regard. Raspberry Pi is always innovating, there are many users who make these miniPCs the base of their projects, so providing them with all possible functions is essential.  The latest news has to do with YouTube  and the resolution of these videos.  The  64-bit version of Raspberry Pi OS  could shortly receive an enhancement that allows you to play videos from the Google platform with  1080 pixels in Chromium  .  The YouTube channel   leepspvideo  has shown this change in a video, which, at the moment, is a function under test.  It was not until this year when we have seen the 64-bit version of Raspberry Pi OS appear.  Until now, the operating system of this brand  maintains a 32-bit kernel  , but we already have the next big jump in Raspberry Pi in beta, which, apparently, will include many changes.
