After all, Samsung has several years of experience at the meter and should not be taken lightly. Is the Nexus 6 really able to dethrone the king of Android phablettes? Nothing like a good old family duel to decide the winner, and computer graphics please.

Task

Screen

On paper, both have a very similar phablettes screen. A diagonal between 5.5 and 6 inches qHD resolution, density around 500 dpi and a Super AMOLED panel. That of the Nexus 6 is also stamped Samsung. A major problem since the Super AMOLED South Korean suffer from poor contrast and saturation. A non-issue for the Note 4 since the slab can be adjusted from the parameters, which is impossible since the Nexus 6. In addition, the Motorola phone screen also has a low maximum brightness and white that take to gray. These factors play in favor of the Galaxy Note 4 which logically won this round

Power

The technical data of the Samsung Galaxy Note Nexus 4 and 6 are as alike as two peas. Snapdragon processor 805, Adreno 420 GPU and a 3 GB of RAM. Still, the Nexus 6 takes advantage of the Samsung device. The explanation is to be sought in the operating system. Indeed, the Nexus 6 embeds the latest version of Android, Lollipop, while the Note 4 is still running Android 4.4. Thus, Note 4 uses the Dalvik virtual machine while the Nexus 6 uses the new virtual machine ART. The latter is compatible with the 64-bit architectures, unlike Dalvik machine Android 4.4.

For its part, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is still running Android 4.4 and more struggling TouchWiz, the overcoat house of Samsung. The latter is probably the most controversial of all as its ecosystem is rich but overloaded. It is clear that the Nexus 6 is ahead in terms of user experience.

photo / video

The Nexus 6 and the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 are equal in terms of photo party. The prowess of the two sensors are equivalent, that is excellent in good light conditions. However, both phones falter when light is lacking. If the Note 4 catches up the matter with a very convincing optical stabilization, the Nexus 6 can rely on HDR + quality. Difficult to separate the two moving on this, so the duel ended in a draw.

Battery

6 Nexus and Galaxy Note 4 conceal both a battery of 3220 mAh. One could legitimately believe that autonomy is equivalent. Yet the Note 4 seems to be a more enduring hair than its competitor.

Xiaomi wants to exchange your iPhone against Mi Note – Frandroid

Obviously, this is not against the “big” Android manufacturers than Xiaomi wants to fight, but directly against Apple. An exchange program could also soon emerge.

I love you, me neither. If we trust that reported today GizmoChina whose skills in Chinese are higher than ours, Xiaomi could implement a fun idea in China. This was announced by the director of media development Xiaomi would be to exchange Apple smartphone against the latest mobile unveiled by the brand. Indeed, provided that the phone is in working order, it might be possible to exchange or iPhone 5 5S against the Xiaomi Mi Note no additional cost, or iPhone 6 or more against a 6 Xiaomi Mi Note Pro .

This method should not really appeal to the Cupertino, already annoyed since autumn and plagiarism accusations made by Jony Ive, chief designer of the brand . Since then, the admiration of Xiaomi Apple seems to have eased and the builder is now playing on rivalry. Admittedly be defined as the number 1 enemy of Apple is also a good way to become known throughout the world, prior to launch products. Finally maybe that’s the great Xiaomi strategy to conquer the West.

In addition to its marketing program, Xiaomi would launch an application on the App Store, for organizing a Quick Migration (contacts, data, photos, etc …) to an Apple device to a Xiaomi smartphone. Practice in case of exchange, right?

Paris of the head and shoulder – Debrief and NOTES players (ASSE … – Maxifoot

Widely domineering little dangerous but nonetheless, Paris Saint-Germain has still managed to win 1-0 at Saint-Etienne on Sunday. Naively pushing the ball of the shoulder in its surface, Clement gave the three points to Parisians

The PSG Ibrahimovic won 1-0 at Saint-Etienne.

The Paris Saint-Germain has won this clash of the 22nd day of Ligue 1, far from having fulfilled its promise, by winning the smallest of the scores in the Cauldron (1-0). An Ibrahimovic penalty sanctioned a very disappointing Drill team on Sunday.

Ibra wanted

Under the impetus of a highly mobile Ibrahimovic, Parisians were starting strong this meeting and would not let breathe the Greens, although Ruffier spent a very quiet first period in its cages. Interest in the game, the champions of France but lacked edged approach the opposing cage.

The Greens protest in vain …

We had to wait the hour to finally see Ruffier endeavor. Angled closed Ibrahimovic took his chance but the porter Etienne interposed. The last bastion of the ASSE would nevertheless have to surrender then on a penalty Swedish (0-1, 60th), following a hand ball Clement in its surface. The Greens had protested in vain, touch the ball of the shoulder is considered a handling error in the regulation.

Late in the game, Cavani thought to double the lead a superb lob but the bar that rejected his bid. The score so would not move. With this success, PSG still third, returns to the tune of OM in the standings, 4 points leader Lyon. Saint-Etienne, under the threat of Monaco, is now 4 lengths of the podium

The note of the match. 5/10

The shock of the 22nd day of Ligue 1 has left us hungry. If they had the possession and delivered some beautiful sequences of play, however, the Parisians rarely worried Ruffier. In the other camp, Sirigu has it spent an evening with hands on hips …

The purpose

– Wanting to rule the danger in its surface, Clement looks but not enough to push the ball in the chest. This is that the shoulder of the key. Mr. Buquet gives the penalty, converted by Ibrahimovic (0-1, 60)

The NOTES players.

Maxifoot awarded a note (10) commented to each player

The man of the match. Thiago Silva (7.5 / 10)

The Parisian master confirmed his return to the forefront. Well placed, strong in the tackle, sharp in its interventions, the Brazilian has left nothing to Etienne attackers

SAINT-ETIENNE.

Stéphane Ruffier (5) : alert a shot Ibrahimovic, it must unfortunately bow from the penalty spot two minutes later

Kévin Théophile-Catherine (6) : Etienne right side has shown solid on its side. He defended well, without risks

Paul Baysse (6.5) . One or two approximations but also lots of sharp interventions . Former Brest has often dismissed the danger behind

Loic Perrin (6.5) . Stéphanois the captain has also made a very good copy Central hinge. A solid game again

Franck Tabanou (4) . Stéphanois left side suffered in the first period and could be quickly ruled out for a villain gesture on Matuidi. It is a little later reintroduced

Jeremy Clement (3) . Stéphanois the middle fought in the middle but his team leaden with what caused the penalty box. He thinks the right thing to do but did not know that the shoulder was considered one hand in Regulation …

Fabien Lemoine (4) He ran after the ball a lot but rarely caught. He finished very tired. Replaced in the 82nd minute with Landry N’Guémo (not rated) who played his first minutes with the Greens.

Romain Hamouma ( 3) : we expected a lot more from him. Former Caen will set no difference tonight. . Disappointing

Yohan Mollo (4) after a complicated early game, he took up his head a little. But it was still insufficient. Replaced in the 82nd minute by the young Jonathan Bamba (not rated) , which had its first appearance in Ligue 1.

Mevlut Erding ( 3) : Private Greens of the ball, the Turk did not exist during this meeting he crossed like a ghost. Replaced in the 67th minute with Alan St. Maximin (not rated) that has not been able to report further.

Ricky van Wolfswinkel (3) : it is reported that when picking up a yellow card in the 20th minute. A very poor performance

PARIS SG:.

Salvatore Sirigu (5) : the Parisian porter probably not expect to live as quiet evening in the Cauldron …

Marquinhos (7) with absences Van der Wiel and Aurier, the Brazilian was still incumbent on the right side of the Parisian defense. The former player of the Roma has again made a beautiful print. Solid back, often seen before, he may cast doubt in the mind of Laurent Blanc. Dutch and Ivorian are they really the best

Thiago Silva (7.5) : read the comment above

.

David Luiz (6) : quietly, the Brazilian proved applied behind. A clean match

Maxwell (5) . Serious provision, without more, the Parisian left side. We have seen little offensively but if Hamouma did not exist during this meeting, it is not foreign.

Thiago Motta (6) : the Italian international has produced a good game in midfield. He moved the ball well and allowed his team to have control of the debate

Marco Verratti (6) . The former player Pescara has also delivered a good game in midfield. Originally several interesting situations in the second period. Replaced in the 85th minute with Yohan Cabaye (not rated)

Blaise Matuidi (6) . His old lawn, international tricolor was effective in midfield. He scratched balloons and tried to project forward

Lucas (4,5) . Brazilian failed to upset the Etienne defense even if it showed a great relationship with Marquinhos on its right side. Replaced in the 75th minute with Javier Pastore (not rated) near being decisive passer for Cavani but the Uruguayan found the bar.

Edinson Cavani (5) : fairly quiet overall, it was reported néamoins providing its share of defensive efforts. Late in the game, it’s an easy to register a superb goal but the bar that pushes his attempt. Replaced in the 84th minute with Ezequiel Lavezzi (not rated) that has not had time to shine.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic (6.5) : highly mobile, the Swede has won many to orchestrate the game around. After a strike well blocked by Ruffier, he opened the scoring with a brilliantly placed penalty. Author of a nasty foul on Hamouma which only earned him a yellow in injury time.
