Samsung’s new Galaxy Book Flex and Ion laptops bring better designs to the lineup

More premium designs for Samsung’s premium laptops

Samsung has a pair of new laptops — the Galaxy Book Flex and Galaxy Book Ion — that will replace the company’s old Samsung Notebook 9 Pen and Notebook 9 models, respectively. Samsung is making some big changes on these laptops, both inside and out. There are the expected boosts in specs, of course, as well as very welcome redesigns that bring the two models more in line with the modern design language that Samsung introduced earlier this year with the Notebook 9 Pro.

The new Galaxy Books are Samsung’s first laptops to use QLED displays, which is the same display tech that the company uses on its line of high-end flat-screen TVs. Samsung says they should be brighter (with a maximum of 600 nitts using a special “Outdoor Mode” and up to 400 nitts regularly) and more color accurate than before.

Both laptops also feature Intel’s latest 10th Gen chips: the convertible Galaxy Book Flex has 10nm Ice Lake processors, while the Galaxy Book Ion will have the 14nm Comet Lake chipsets based on the older architecture. Both laptops (in their 13- and 15-inch sizes) are certified as part of Intel’s Project Athena program, meaning you should get up to nine hours of real-world battery life.

The third big change is the inclusion of a new Wireless PowerShare touchpad that doubles as a full-fledged Qi wireless charger for any of your wirelessly charging gadgets. It’s an admittedly odd feature: you have to first enable the wireless charging mode with a keyboard combination, so it’s not as simple as just dropping your phone on top of the pad. And when you’re charging a device, you can’t use the touchpad at all, which limits the functionality of your laptop (unless you have an external mouse handy). Given that the rest of the laptops are made out of metal, the glass trackpad was the only place to put it. Plus, if you do desperately need to charge your Galaxy Watch Active 2 or AirPods, you’ll have the option.

Lastly, there are some changes to the S Pen that is included with the Galaxy Book Flex. It now has similar Air Action gestures to the Galaxy Note 10, allowing you to control your laptop with motion gestures using the stylus.

As for the actual designs, they’re big improvements on the old models. Like the Notebook 9 Pro, they’re all-metal designs, but Samsung’s ancient design style has finally been given the axe. Compare the new Galaxy Book Flex against the Notebook 9 Pen from last year, and it’s no contest. The bubbly-looking curved and corners are replaced with the sharper edges that it introduced earlier this year. There’s also far smaller screen bezels, which helps reduce the overall size of the laptop.

Better yet, Samsung has actually improved on its first attempt with these models. Where the Notebook 9 Pro looked like a MacBook Pro rip-off, the new Galaxy Book Flex, with its striking blue hues, finally looks like its own unique product.

Similarly, the non-touchscreen Galaxy Book Ion looks to stand out with a cleverly raised design that sees the back of the display prop up the keyboard slightly when opened. There’s also a nice blue accent strip on the back that helps it stand out from the crowd.

As for the rest of the specs: both laptops will come in 13-inch and 15-inch sizes, with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB NVMe SSDs. (Although, as noted before, the folding Flex laptops will have Intel’s newer 10nm processors.) The 15-inch models will also have optional Nvidia MX250 external GPUs, although Samsung has yet to announce exact configurations for any of the laptops just yet.

There’s no word on pricing, although Samsung says that prices should be within the same ballpark as the Notebook 9 Pen and Notebook 9 clamshell laptops that the new models will replace.

More curious is the release date, or lack thereof: Samsung only gave an “early 2020” window, which is puzzlingly far away from today’s announcement. Samsung also missed another Galaxy Book release date recently: the company’s ARM-powered Galaxy Book S was originally supposed to ship in September, and we still have no release date almost two months later.

How to Optimize SSD for Faster Performance (Windows Tweaks)

Capacities of Solid State Drives are steadily rising, while prices continue to fall. It’s now common to find mid-range notebooks and desktop PCs with a decently sized SSD. All these new Solid State Drives replacing traditional platter based HDDs for everyday use will need to be optimized, and most users are probably not aware of the differences in setup procedures and regular maintenance for SSDs vs HDDs.

Disclaimer: This guide deals with making changes to the Windows Registry and other advanced system settings. PCHardwareHelp.com will not be responsible should you make any mistakes that cause damage to your Windows installation. Proceed with caution and at your own risk.

1. IDE vs AHCI Mode

Before installing Windows on a new SSD, you should first enter your motherboard’s BIOS and enable AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) mode instead of IDE in the SATA controller’s configuration area if given the option (this would also be a good time to update the BIOS firmware before installing Windows). Older systems may not have this option, but most newer motherboards will support AHCI. If your BIOS is already setup for AHCI don’t touch a thing. IDE is typically the default option used when installing a normal HDD, so if making the switch this will need to be changed. Once AHCI is selected it will enable hot swapping and native command queuing, which should give you a nice performance boost of 10-15 percent over IDE mode. AHCI is supported in Vista and all Windows operating systems released after it.

Reminder: This step must be completed before installing the OS. The PC will fail to boot if you install in IDE mode and later try to change it to AHCI, forcing you to format and reinstall windows in the correct mode.

It is possible to enable AHCI mode on a current Windows 7 install in IDE mode if you don’t wish to do a fresh install. This will require making some changes via Regedit then entering your BIOS after rebooting and switching to ACHI mode. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Open the Run menu by hitting the Windows key + R.
  2. Type in Regedit and hit enter to enter the registry navigator.
  3. First, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\services\iaStorV and modify the REG_DWORD Start from 3 to 0 by right-clicking it and hitting modify.
  4. Now navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\services\msahci and follow the same procedure of modifying the Start value to 0.
  5. After those two changes are made to Regedit you must reboot your PC, enter the BIOS, and switch from IDE to AHCI mode. Now you’re done!

2. Confirm TRIM is Running

The purpose of TRIM is to allow the Operating System to communicate to the SSD that a block of data is no longer needed or being used by the file system (garbage collection). If TRIM is not functioning you may notice a drop in performance. TRIM is supported in Windows 7 and 8, but not Vista. Follow these steps to verify that TRIM is installed and working properly:

  1. Search for cmd in Windows search.
  2. Once the Cmd program is displayed in the search right click it and select Run as Administrator.
  3. Now type in this line without quotes and hit Enter: “fsutil behavior query DisableDeleteNotify”

If TRIM is running it will return DisableDeleteNotify=0, or DisableDeleteNotify=1 if TRIM is not functioning.

3. Avoid and Disable Disk Defragmenter

Disk Defragment should never be run on a SSD. Fortunately, the default setting for Windows 7 and 8 (but not Vista) for a SSD is to disable the disk defragmentation scheduling utility because it is simply not needed for a Solid State Drive. All running the disk defragmenter on a SSD will accomplish is adding additonal wear and tear by increasing number of writes, thus decreasing the expected lifespan of your SSD.

If you are running Vista and need to disable the disk defragmentation utility or just want to verify it isn’t running in Windows 7 or 8, follow these steps:

  1. Type dfrgui into Windows Search and open Disk Defragmenter.
  2. Select your SSD from the list of devices and hit Configure Schedule.
  3. Uncheck Run on a schedule if checked to disable disk defragmenter from running automatically.
  1. Type cmd into Windows Search. Right-click on command prompt and select Run as Administrator.
  2. Now type in powercfg -h off and hit Enter to disable hibernation.

4. Disable Indexing Service/Windows Search

The indexing service in Windows is implemented to make the search function perform faster by storing an index of file locations. The service was designed to improve search performance when using a mechanical HDD, but the quick response times of SSDs make this service obsolete and unnecessary. Indexing is also another service that makes multiple small writes to a storage drive any time a file is created, changed, or removed. It’s wise to disable this service if you wish to avoid unnecessary wear to the SSD.

  1. Click Start and open Computer.
  2. Find the SSD you would like to disable indexing service on, right-click it and choose Properties.
  3. Uncheck the box next to Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties.

5. Enable Write Caching for SSDs

Write caching can improve performance of both SSDs and HDDs. It’s usually enabled by default, but if not here’s how to turn it on:

  1. Right-click Computer and select Properties.
  2. Click Device manager on the left then expand Disk drives.
  3. Find your SSD, right-click it, hit Properties and go to the Policies tab.
  4. Make sure Enable write caching on the device is checked and hit Ok.

Write-cache Buffer Flushing

Double check to make sure the box next to “Turn off Windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device” is not checked. Having this option selected will put your filesystem and any important data stored on the drive at risk in the event of any external interruptions such as power failures. With that said, if you are not concerned about data integrity and only want the fastest SSD performance possible, enabling this option may provide the speed boost you crave. I say may because this seems to vary from drive to drive and system to system (Intel recommends to not disabling write-cache buffer flushing on their drives). Benchmark your SSD with it enabled and disabled to determine if it provides any benefit.

6. Update Drivers and Firmware for Your SSD

The software that comes bundled with most PC hardware (SSDs included) is usually outdated, so get into the habit of checking the manufacturers website to download the newest drivers and firmware updates. This applies to every component in the PC, especially your motherboards chipset drivers as they can have a huge impact on SSD speed and reliability.

7. Optimize or Disable Page File for SSDs

Yet another feature that makes numerous writes to a SSD that could potentially lessen lifespan. There is a lot of debate about whether page file should be used or not. My personal recommendation is to keep it enabled as a page file is required for the system to create memory and kernel dumps. Another solution is to move your page file to a seperate drive if you have one available.

To move page file onto a secondary drive:

  1. Right-click Computer and select Properties.
  2. Click Advanced system settings in the left pane.
  3. Select the Advanced tab and under the Performance section, click Settings…
  4. Choose the Advanced tab and click the Change… button under Virtual Memory.
  5. Uncheck the box next to Automatically Manage paging file size for all drives.
  6. Select the second drive where the page file will be stored, choose either a fixed Custom size or System managed size, click Set then Ok.

To disable the page file completely just follow the above 1-5 steps, select No paging file, click Set then Ok.

8. Turn Off System Restore

This is a tweak I assume many SSD users will choose not follow, but you should. When irreversible problems occur System Restore can be a nice fallback, but if you have no important data that needs to be protected on your C: drive (you should be backing up externally anyway) I suggest you disable System Restore. Once System Restore has been turned off it will free up a few GB’s of space, reduce writes to your SSD, and allow you to avoid conflicts with TRIM that can lead to severe drops in SSD performance.

To turn of System Restore you must:

  1. Right-click on Computer and choose Properties.
  2. Navigate to System Protection in the left pane.
  3. Press the Configure button.
  4. Select the bubble next to Turn off system protection and click OK.

9. Use High Performance Power Settings

The power saving options in Windows can be useful for a notebook PC when you need that extra hour of battery life. In a desktop environment the high performance power plan should be used so none of your components are downclocked to lower speeds in a effort to lower power consumption. You can also enable garbage collection to run on your SSD when idle in the advanced power management settings by telling your drive to never turn itself off and and disabling Sleep.

  1. Go to Control Panel and click Power Options.
  2. Select the High performance plan. If high performance isn’t viewable, click Show additional plans to expand the entire list.
  3. Click Change plan settings next to the High performance plan.
  4. Now click Change advanced power settings
  5. Navigate to the Hard disk option and change Turn off hard disk after to Never (0 minutes).
  6. Navigate to the Sleep option and change Sleep after to Never (0 minutes) and click OK.

Disable Hibernation

This one will be a personal preference. If you actually need hibernation to function for the power saving or other reasons obviously just leave it be, but disabling it will free up a good chunk of precious storage capacity on your SSD, as hibernation uses approximately the same amount of space as the amount of RAM installed in the PC. If you have 16GB of RAM that is no small amount of space on most SSDs.

To disable Hibernate:

  1. Search for cmd and right-click the command prompt icon to select Run as administrator.
  2. Type powercfg -h off and press Enter.

Conclusion

You may not choose to try all of these suggested SSD tweaks and optimizations, but it’s important for you to, at the very least, install Windows onto your SSD in AHCI mode, verify TRIM is working properly, and disable scheduling of disk defragmentation. These steps will insure your SSD runs more efficiently with better performance and hopefully continues operating into the future with a longer lifespan.

Update Google Chrome (September 18, 2019)

The latest version fixes serious security flaws

Google’s latest update to the Chrome browser contains patches for vulnerabilities that, if exploited, could allow remote hijackers to take control over the user’s device. According to publicly available alerts, an attacker could run malicious code simply by tricking victims into just opening a specially crafted Web page on the affected Chrome browser. The security flaws affect Chrome for Windows and Mac. Google says it won’t disclose any further details until most users have updated their browsers.

To get the vulnerabilities patched, you need to update Google Chrome:

  • Simply restarting Chrome should suffice. After that, to make sure everything’s up to date, you can click the three stacked dots in the top right corner (called Customize and Control Google Chrome), then Help → About Google Chrome. If the number you see there is 77.0.3865.90 (or higher), then Chrome is up to date. If not, Chrome will start searching for available updates (you’ll see a spinning circle) and in a moment the number of the latest available version will be displayed; click Relaunch.

Thousands worldwide affected by Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram outages

Facebook Inc said it is working to resolve issues faced by some users while sending media files on its social media platforms including WhatsApp and Instagram.

Facebook Inc said on Wednesday it is working to resolve issues faced by some users while sending media files on its social media platforms including WhatsApp and Instagram.

 

More than 14 000 users reported issues with Instagram, while more than 7 500 and 1 600 users reported issues with Facebook and WhatsApp, according to outage tracking website Downdetector.com.

The website’s live outage map showed that the issues mainly cropped up in parts of Europe and the United States.

 

Facebook had experienced one of its longest outages in March, when some users around the globe faced trouble accessing Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp for over 24 hours.

Source: iol.co.az

WHATSAPP DOWN: PICTURE AND VOICE MESSAGES NOT WORKING AS ‘DOWNLOAD FAILED’ ERROR MESSAGES APPEAR

WhatsApp appears to have stopped working, with users unable to send some messages.

While text appears to work, photos, videos and voice messages will not send through, according to various reports.

Instead, users just see a message reading “download failed” and the content will not arrive.

The same error message advises users to ask for the picture to be sent over again. But doing so does not seem to work.

Unusually, a preview of the picture does appear to be able to get through. It means that recipients can see a version of the pictures that are being sent – but it is fuzzy and the details cannot be seen.

Sometimes, an error message will show confirming that something has gone wrong, though it does not appear to show up every time.

The wording of the error messages appears to change for different users. But many of them suggest solutions that don’t actually seem to work.

“Couldn’t download image,” one seen by The Independent reads.

 

“Try again. If the problem keeps happening, try turning off Wi-Fi or VPN, or connecting to a different Wi-Fi network.”

Complaints particularly came from the UK and South America, according to the outage tracking website Down Detector. The number of reports were relatively limited for a WhatsApp outage – but that might be a consequence of the strangely specific nature of the problem.

WhatsApp is good for your health, new research claims

“Couldn’t download image,” one seen by The Independent reads.

“Try again. If the problem keeps happening, try turning off Wi-Fi or VPN, or connecting to a different Wi-Fi network.”

Complaints particularly came from the UK and South America, according to the outage tracking website Down Detector. The number of reports were relatively limited for a WhatsApp outage – but that might be a consequence of the strangely specific nature of the problem.

Unlike many other major services, WhatsApp does not maintain a status page to allow people to check whether its systems are online. It does have a Twitter account that was once used to alert people to issues, but it has not been used for five years.

Last time all three of Facebook’s major services broke, the outage lasted for many hours. It later blamed that problem on a server issue that had a knock-on effect on Instagram and WhatsApp, as well as Facebook, since the three use shared infrastructure.

“As a result of a server configuration change, many people had trouble accessing our apps and services,” Facebook posted on Twitter after that previous outage was fixed. “We’ve now resolved the issues and our systems are recovering. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate everyone’s patience.”

When those problems happened in March, they were said to be perhaps the biggest outage in the history of the internet, hitting millions of people.

“By duration, this is by far the largest outage we have seen since the launch of Downdetector in 2012,” Tom Sanders, co-founder of Downdetector, told Techcrunch in the wake of that outage. “Our systems processed about 7.5 million problem reports from end users over the course of this incident. Never before have we such a large scale outage.”

SİP və VOİP arasında fərq nədir? [AZ]

SİP və VOİP arasında fərq nədir?

İlk öncə qeyd etmək istərdik ki, VOİP və SİP bir-biri ilə əlaqəli olmasına baxmayaraq, biri texnologiyanı, digəri isə həmin texnologiyanın istifadə etdiyi protokolu göstərir.

VOİP- Voice Over İnternet Protocol – ənənəvi telefon sistemindən (PSTN) fərqli olaraq İP üzərindən zəngləri həyata keçirməyə xidmət göstərən bir texnologiyadır. Misal olaraq ənənəvi telefon sistemi, bir çox evlərdə istifadə etdiyimiz telefon sistemidir. VOİP-ə misal olaraq çoxumuzun istifadə etdiyimiz skype göstərmək olar.

SİP – Session İnitation Protocol – adından göründüyü kimi VOİP texnologiyasında istifadə edilən protokollardan biridir. Bu protokol İP üzərindən zənglərin həyata keçirilməsinə xidmət göstərir. Yəni qısa desək texnologiya VOİP-dir, texnologiyanın işini həyata keçirən protokol isə SİPdir.

Instagram phishers reach a new level

Fraudsters have diversified their tactics to target users, tempting them with verified badges or accusing them of copyright infringement.

If your Instagram account has a thousand followers or more, scammers are probably after you. Several phishing campaigns are on the rise simultaneously.

Here’s an example: A fraudulent e-mail seemingly from Instagram claims you’re eligible for a blue “Verified” account badge — just fill out the form. Another variant of fake notice claims your account will be permanently deleted for copyright infringement and you have 48 hours to appeal.

At that point, you’re supposed to click either “Verify account” or “Review complaint.” Don’t do it! Either button leads to an extremely convincing phishing page where you are supposed to input your Instagram credentials as well as your e-mail credentials. Once you submit the form, a “verified account” badge or a “we will review your feedback” reply appears, but only for few seconds. Then you’ll be redirected to Instagram’s website — a simple trick that lends additional credibility to the scam.

In reality, your data goes to the scammers, who can take over your account, modify the information needed to recover it, and start demanding ransom to give it back to you, for example. For more about Instagram hijacking tactics, read this post.

How to recognize phishing:

  • Instagram initiates a verification process only at a user’s request. Click here to learn how to make such a request.
  • Instagram never asks for its users’ credentials outside of its login page — or your e-mail password, ever.
  • To verify whether you have any incoming notifications, use your Instagram app.

Kibertəhlükəsizlik səviyyəsinə görə ən yaxşı ölkə açıqlanıb [AZ]

Hakerlər bir ay boyunca İsveçrənin elektron səsvermə sisteminə hücum edə biləcəklər.

Xəbər verilir ki, bu addımla İsveçrə hökuməti “Schweizer Post AG” tərəfindən təqdim edilən sistemin etibarlılığını yoxlamaq və həmçinin əhalidə bu sistemə qarşı inam yaratmaq niyyətindədir. Artıq 450-dən artıq haker bu məqsədlə www.onlinevote-pit.ch saytında rəsmi qeydiyyatdan keçib və fevralın 25-dən martın 24-dək elektron səsvermə sisteminə hücum edə biləcəklər. İspaniyanın “Scylt” şirkətinin hazırladığı texnologiyanın yoxlanılması gələcəkdə mümkün boşluq və manipulyasiya imkanlarının qarşısını indidən almağa xidmət edir.

Hakerlərin qarşısına sayt idarəçilərinin xəbəri olmadan sistemi manipulyasiya etmək, saxta seçici profilləri yaratmaq və ya mövcud olanları dəyişmək, hər bir seçicinin məxfi səsvermə nəticələrini aşkara çıxarmaq və onu saxtalaşdırmaq, ümumi səsvermə nəticələrinə təsir etmək və s. tapşırıqlar qoyulub. Hakerlərin marağını artırmaq üçün, ümumilikdə, 250 min İsveçrə frankı məbləğində mükafat fondu da təsis edilib. Hansısa seçicinin kimə səs verdiyini aşkara çıxara bilən hakerə 5 min frank, aşkar edilmədən fərdi səsləri manipulyasiya edən hakerlərə isə 20-50 min frank arasında mükafat vəd edilir.

İspaniyanın “Scylt” şirkətinin hazırladığı texnologiyanın yoxlanılması gələcəkdə mümkün boşluq və manipulyasiya imkanlarının qarşısını indidən almağa xidmət edir.

Hakerlərin qarşısına sayt idarəçilərinin xəbəri olmadan sistemi manipulyasiya etmək, saxta seçici profilləri yaratmaq və ya mövcud olanları dəyişmək, hər bir seçicinin məxfi səsvermə nəticələrini aşkara çıxarmaq və onu saxtalaşdırmaq, ümumi səsvermə nəticələrinə təsir etmək və s. tapşırıqlar qoyulub. Hakerlərin marağını artırmaq üçün, ümumilikdə, 250 min İsveçrə frankı məbləğində mükafat fondu da təsis edilib. Hansısa seçicinin kimə səs verdiyini aşkara çıxara bilən hakerə 5 min frank, aşkar edilmədən fərdi səsləri manipulyasiya edən hakerlərə isə 20-50 min frank arasında mükafat vəd edilir.
