Being the highest resolutions phone, it really gives a beautiful look as it is an AMOLED and very bright & colorful. Well, it is true that it trade accuracy for a bit, but for a phone, it is an excellent choice.

The only problem I noticed is that it is slow-to-respond ambient light sensor persist. We all know that a higher resolution device gives a huge impact on two areas of a smart-phone as it puts a strain on the processor and boosts the battery drain.

Removable Back Plate To Add an SDcard



We already discussed that the device’s big portion is built from metal, but the back plate is still plastic and can be removed as you and love from earlier Samsung phones. It allows you to have access over the Micro SIM, removable battery, MicroSD card and more. The device’s SD card slot accepts card-up to 128GB in size in any case if the 32GB internal storage is not enough.

It means if there is any malware on your personal handset, you should keep it away from your work files. Along with it, there is also a standard Android feature of device encryption that means if your phone stolen, the files on it are not readable by third party.

The S Pen is Extremely Powerful For People, Who Needs To Write



Considerably, the company has not changes the S Pen coming from the Note 3, but the S Pen has been ridged now to make it simple to grip and it has a single button. From all the points, it is the software that has seen lots of enhancements.

However, the air command is quite same, but all the applications that have been launched into like Action Memo. S Note has received design refreshes and small usability enhancements. As a widget, action memo notes can be easily saved to your home screen, and S Note is extremely cleaner and a lot easier to navigate.

Panorama Selfies For a Wide-Angle Shot –



We all know that now-a-days, people love to click selfies, and if you are also one such type of person, you can enjoy click some best selfies for you with Note 4. Galaxy Note 4 comes with 3.7 front-facing camera that takes good yet quality pictures, but one of the best and new features is “panorama selfie” mode that allows users to take a super wide-angle shot.

You just need to switch to the front-facing camera and have to turn on the panorama selfie mode. For once, you just have to press the shutter key and sweep back and onward the software will stitch together the pictures and give you a single and wide-angle shot to fit in extra amount of background.

To Enhance Paid Downloads in the Play Store, Google Working on “Micro App”

Whenever any single application takes time to come from iOS to Android, many people have same question how long does it takes to come on Android platform? However, there are some people, who say that they will not download this application because of the delay.


Still, developers are prioritizing iOS platform in spite of Android's market high share and sales dominance. As per the latest studies and statistical presentation, it happens because various people are spending money on the App store as compare to the Play store.

However, Google is serious now and looking out for ways to enhance things for Android developers and Play Store. When it comes to know that Google is testing new ways to engage users; however, details are limited, but the general idea is that Google will offer developers new tool for micro apps that include a small amount of functionality in a smaller download.

Mainly, the strategy is intended to get frugal users like those, who are in developing markets, to part with at least a little bit of money. When it comes to Google’s Android One plan, it is all about hardware and it comes to know that micro apps will make a software counterpoint.

Still, we can’t say that when and where any innovation would come. Various developers have already developed tiny applications with small functions, and lots of devs feel pride on developing apps that take-up very least compare to a megabyte of storage with minimal hits to performance.

As per The Information, the new approach centers on app testing, but again its quite difficult to see how it would happen differently from a standard demo or trial application. However, it is a particular project that has been going for at least a year claimed by Efrati. Within Google, it is part of a big push to boost the Play Store’s revenue. Recently, an unproved figure came into existence that less than 10% of Play Store users are paying for any applications and content. Still, it is not clear when or if any important changes are made done.

Stay tuned with us to get more information on micro apps for android platform. Here, we cover latest and updated news on Android and its solutions. Moreover, you can also get an assistant from our professionals, just click here. :- http://www.androiddevelopmentexperts.com/

Play Games SDK for Cross-Platform Updated by Google with Real Time Multiplayer

There are numerous exciting products like nVidia's Shield line, Ouya, and others prove that gaming on Android has entered the mainstream. Many developers grab an opportunity to build games that run smoothly on the different operating systems. Such thing is because of the Cross-Platform SDK that allows incorporating most of the Play Games services into products on Windows, Mac, and Linux.


A Play Game Services library is offered by Google in three different formats, i.e. one for iOS that called from Objective-C, one for Android that uses Java and a cross-platform variant that uses C++ for both iOS and Android. It is essential to have cross-platform library as it allows developers to maintain common code between iOS and Android implementations of their software. Regrettably, the cross-platform library cannot get much importance as Google provides huge importance to the native iOS and Android versions.

One of the important functionality that we are missing from the cross-platform C++ SDK was Real-time Multiplayer gaming (RTMP) support. However, the good news is Google has updated its Play Games Services in order to bring C++ SDK that features parity with the Play services SDK on Android and the Play Games iOS SDK. That simply means now game developers, who already have Android and iOS versions of their games, can able to add Real-time Multiplayer support by using a single C++ code base instead of writing separate code for Android and iOS.

In addition, Google has added multiplayer support across all of its SDKs that released the latest set of multiplayer stats. The Developer Console can be visited by the developers to view how players are using the multiplayer integration. Apart from, they can also able to see the overall usage trends. Moreover, a few other things are also updated by Google in the Play Game Services. Particularly, it is integrated with the user-interface of the latest Play Games services to material design for cross-platform C++, Android, and iOS.

According to Google, “Quests” are the most popular ways to enhance player engagement. Developers can able to insert fresh content with quests to a game devoid of having to release an update. Google has also added some exciting features in quests to make it easier to manage and implement. Some of them are: out-of-the-box toasts for “quest accepted” and “quest completed” events. It also has removed the 24-hour lead-time requirement for allowing and publishing repeating quests with the same name. Thus, developers are free to publish quests with any name or any type.

Moreover, Google has provided more information on Project Ara as this all new modular mobile phone concept is scheduled for early 2015, and it will be sold through a new online store and Google Play once it launched in the market.

According to the Ara developer blog “Phoneblocks”, the Project Ara devices are expected to run a modified version of its upcoming Android L operating system that has been developed by the company in conjunction with developers of the Linaro Linux-based software.

For an example – you can swap a wide-angle camera while taking a picture of people or use a camera with more resolution for landscape shots. Another detail that we came to know is that Google is going to have an online store to sell its different modules or Project Ara.

Initially, Google started working on this project with its former subsidiary Motorola Mobility on Project Ara, but gradually, there are several other partners have also joined like Foxconn, chipmaker Rockchip and hardware companies Toshiba and Quanta. However, the company has planned a second conference for December month as the company will reveal more information on this project.
