Galaxy Tab S6 Launched with Snapdragon 855, New S-Pen, More

Samsung has today launched its latest tablet offering, the Galaxy Tab S6, ahead of the upcoming and much-awaited Note 10 launch on August 7 in New York.

The tablet, that Samsung is portraying as a “new tablet that allows people to create and connect, enjoy immersive entertainment, and accomplish their goals wherever they go” looks pretty good, and comes with advanced technology, a new S-Pen for an even better stylus experience, and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

The Tab S6 is the first tablet from the South Korean giant to feature a dual rear camera, with a 13MP + 5MP camera set-up on the back, along with an 8MP selfie shooter on the front. It also comes with a ‘7nm octa-core chipset’ which means it’s the Snapdragon 855 powering the tablet, so that’s great.

Paired with the processor is 6/8GB RAM and 128/256GB storage, and a 7,040mAh battery powering it all up. That battery sounds like a necessity when you consider that the Tab S6 comes with a 10.5-inch WQXGA SuperAMOLED display.

The S-Pen now magnetically attaches to the Tab S6, thanks to an indent on the back, and it also supports wireless charging, so you can just attach the S-Pen to the Tab S6 and it’ll begin charging, providing you with 10 hours of S-Pen usage with just 10 minutes of charging. The S-Pen also supports 4,096 pressure levels, so you can use it for sketching and drawing with ease.

Apart from all of that, the Tab S6 comes with a new and improved version of DeX, and the Book Cover keyboard for the Tab S6 comes with a dedicated DeX key to let you seamlessly move from tablet mode to DeX mode.

Samsung hasn’t announced the pricing for the Galaxy Tab S6, but it will be available in select markets starting late August in three colours: Mountain Gray, Cloud Blue and Rose Blush.

Twitter Wants to Build an ‘Open and Decentralized’ Social Media Platform

In an attempt to create a Facebook competitor, which everyone flocks to, Twitter became increasingly centralized over the years. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey believes that’s the case and has now tweeted a lengthy plan to fund research to build an open and decentralized standard for social media platforms. It will “ultimately become a standard” that Twitter’s client will be based upon. Dubbed Bluesky, this project will see a team of up to five researchers , which could include open-source architects, engineers, and designers, being on-boarded in the near future. Currently, Bluesky has no team members but Dorsey tweeted that Twitter’s CTO Parag Agrawal has been tasked with finding a lead. The folks over at Firefox have already extended a helping hand, saying how the non-profit has contributed to decentralization. Enough jibber-jabber, but what exactly is Bluesky? And what does it intend to achieve? Dorsey, in his tweetstorm , states that the challenges being faced by centralized social

Mysterious Drones Spotted in Colorado and Nebraska; Sources Unknown

A group of drones was reportedly been spotted in the sky at night last week in Colorado and Nebraska that made the residents anxious and worried. The police officials in charge have no idea regarding where these drones are from. “They’ve been doing a grid search, a grid pattern. They fly one square and then they fly another square,”  Colorado’s Phillips County Sheriff Thomas Elliot told the Denver Post. The drones have an approximate six-foot wingspan and stay 200 to 300 feet away from buildings. At least 17 drones have been spotted till now. They appear at around 7 PM at night and disappear at around 10 PM . Until now, the drones have not been caught doing any illegal or unofficial activities.  “They do not seem to be malicious. They don’t seem to be doing anything that would indicate criminal activity,” Sheriff Elliott added. The Federal Aviation Agency, the Air Force, Drug Enforcement Administration, and US Army Forces Command confirmed that the drones did not belong to them.
