When will 5G network be launched in India?

With 5G Android devices starting to swirl over the technology market, it is quite obvious to eagerly wait and inquire about  what is 5G and how much network speed will it provide to people, whether the 5th Generation high speed 5G network will be introduced in India or not. Let us take a realistic survey from the current technical analysis and opinions by experts with regards to the expected 5G launch date in India.

When 4G/4GVolTE network had to be launched, Reliance Jio Communications led the charge and just prevailed its reign like a giant. But it is also to be noted with grief that Government of India’s own BSNL has yet not implemented 4G VolTE services yet. It is always beneficial to use the next generation technology at easy hands but when we expect 5G network data speed being easily available and accessible to every state and corner of a vastly populated Nation like India, this is a herculean mammoth task. So, it is a little irritating and worrisome when you talk about 5G network launch in India. On the other hand, Techno giants have started unveiling and launching 5G Supported Android Smartphones like MOTO G 5G, Samsung Galaxy S21 Series, OPPO Reno 5 Pro etc. in India, but it’s prime requirement – the 5G Mobile Network – remains too near but too far a dream to come true.

If you are wondering about which countries have actually deployed 5G technology, then let me tell you that amongst countries having 5G networks, China is perhaps the leading Nation when it counts the enlisted members but the first country to adopt 5G technology network is South Korea in April 2019. At present, only three top countries have built and deployed the 5G technology with trials in its soil, they are South Korea, China and the United States of America. And currently three international 5G mobile network operators namely the China Mobile,  AT&T Inc. & KT corp are proactively working to establish the fifth generation wireless network support to mobile devices. India remains too smartly apart and close like a mirage in this phenomena. However, experts synthesizing the list of 5G NR networks say that the value of 5G in India will be extremely high rated than other advanced countries of the globe.

Now people asking frequently about if Reliance Jio would launch 5G or not? Will Airtel launch 5G spectrum? The answer is a delayed Yes. But at the recently concluded India Mobile Congress(IMC) conference, Reliance Industries CEO Mukesh Ambani has clearly mentioned about his telecommunications venture Reliance Jio's plans to launch 5G technology in second half of 2021. That is, if everything falls as per Jio's plan directives, India can behold 5G network launch in mid 2021, say June to August 2021.

We say this because we have tried and tested the trust factor of Jio over the years till now. Moreover, Reliance Jio is perhaps the best India network operator which is financially stable and in a cool poised position to make launch of its Made in India Jio 5G spectrum services to Indian people than any other operator.

All About The Wireguard VPN Protocols in Android OS

 


What is a wireguard VPN? Why is it essential for Android OS? Does all Android versions have Wireguard VPN support? If you are searching about these queries, then this article explains all the details for you.

With the global pandemic being still on, most of the professional sectors have introduced the work from home culture and this is why the need of the hour is a Secure Virtue Private Network (VPN) that is provided by default in iOS Smartphones and tablets. When you connect to your emplyer's server remotely from the comfort of your home, your only concern will be the security of your personal data and professional information. Any kind of breach can land you in a undesired soup. Hence, from now on, Google has fully committed to adding Wireguard VPN protocol to its Android 12’s Linux Kernels which are much faster than the all other existing protocols.

All Android OS versions do not have Wireguard VPN protocol support feature. Only Android 11 & 12 are having an in-bulit Wireguard VPN support at present. Google may update any new rollouts in near future. 

Wireguard VPN Security patches has been added to Android 12-5.4 & 4.19 tree of Android common kernel. Linux Version 5.6 has Wireguard VPN support, hence being a Linux based Operating Software, Android 11 also supports the Wireguard VPN feature since its usage covers the 4.14 & 4.19 tree of the common kernel. In a nutshell, Wireguard VPN ensures high quality encrypted live data exchange between servers with safety and privacy. This is one of the key features of Google's next generation Android usage.

 

List of Indian e-commerce sites that sell pirated products

 The COVID-19 pandemic has given a huge surge in the volume of online shopping, especially when you prefer to stay protected from contacts without having to make physical visits to malls for buying your essentials. But have you ever pondered over the originality of the products we shop online e-commerce sites.? Do shopping giants like Flipkart, Amazon, Snapdeal, Shopclues etc. sell fake and pirated goods?

Recently as US based survey line-listed some notorious Indian markets that sell products with duplication and piracy. Although those e-com farms have retaliated firmly, the point to consider deeply is our chances of being cheated. Since anyone can sell his goods through these e-kart shopping agents by registering himself as a seller, there is the least guarantee of providing originality, in-time product servicing and care once a order is delivered. Although not completely fake, but some refurbished goods can also be sold with piracy. When you want to claim warranty, they are never ready to accept your complains. Instead they allege you as blaming the company’s good will. Since you are the person who placed order, your chances of winning back remains very low.

So, here are some of safety tips for online shopping to avoid pirated products:

·         Always make a good research of the product and it’s price from its official website first.

·        Analyze the genuineness of any flagship offer from all sources.

·        Take your time clearing all your doubts regarding your desired products.

·        For safest way, always choose ‘Cash on delivery' option.

·        Make sure record or shoot videos for proofs while opening your delivered order packs.

·        Once something wrong detected, notify the e-commerce portal as soon as possible and return the goods by canceling the order.

So, from a broader analysis, it is a big yes. Almost all e-commerce sites sell pirated goods, although not 100℅. But definitely a portion of their business is yielding dividends through piracy. Otherwise, no such feedbacks or reviews would arise at all.

Will Aparajita Sarangi be a good CM of Odisha?

 With Odisha Chief Minister perhaps being at the dusk of his political career, the ruling BJD is in a bit baffling situation regarding who is going to be Naveen Pattnaik's successor. While its old loyal ally BJP is also in a newly found synergized state of spirit for the next polls, few candidates are poping up in critics' and experts' mind and the former top IAS Bureaucrat Bhubaneswar MP Mrs. Aparajita Sarangi is one of them. The question is, can she make a good CM of Odisha? Can BJP win next Odisha polls if Mrs. Sarangi becomes the next CM candidate face?

People of Odisha are not even loyal to BJD, but to Naveen Pattnaik. There has been internal disputes, divisions and many other dramas inside BJD's party members, but Naveen has stayed well alert and proactive in keeping up the public welfare and interests. Odisha has seen very substantial growth amidst all adversities under Naveen's silent and practical leadership. Naveen's people-centric formula and approach has played the pivotal role in making Odisha blossoming with progress in various sectors despite many scams, corruption charges and copycat schemes of the Central Government. In addition to that, Naveen has stood tall with pillar support to public during natural calamities, disasters and pandemics. Especially his special attention, respect and welfare scheme for Health Sector service providers and frontline warriors during the last COVID-19 pandemic won millions of hearts all over the world.

Well, while I say that, I must admit the fact that BJP has never shown any interest to anyone’s personal goodwill. It has also mainly focused on performance of the candidates. Hence, people also argue in favour of other frontline BJP leaders of the state as next CM candidates. That is to say, will Dharmendra Pradhan or Baijayant Jay Panda or Sambit Patra be the next CM faces of BJP in Odisha? My answer is – anyone of them might be, but none of them actually enjoy Naveen’s one fourth popularity to be that close to the CM of Odisha. Aparajita Sarangi is extremely popular in Bhubaneswar but she definitely lacks a PAN-Odisha vision and administrative attribute.

Talking about BJP's selection tactics of CM candidates in its ruled states, you can easily figure out how skillful guts does Modi has. He has always kept media hypes miles apart from his party's key core discussions and decisions. Only performance based worthy candidates have won party’s trust in the end. Hence, taking these factors into considerations, it will be no wonder if Aparajita Sarangi becomes the next Chief Ministerial candidate of Odisha. Being an IAS officer, she knows very well how to take her standard of public service to next level and empowerment will only increase her ability and vision towards overall progress of the state, I confidently suppose.

Hope you reach at a conclusive choice from the above comparison. Points to note here is that 

(*) while all three have Gorilla display, the Vanilla S21 has glasstic rear empanelments than the other two which makes it little weird in having hands on. 

(*) Again all three models of Galaxy S21 Series have Samsung's Exynos processors, but Samsung USA is offering Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processors to its customers.

(*) Additionally, all prebooking customers will get Galaxy SmartTag free + Samsung’s E-shop vouchers of Rs. 10000 + Galaxy Watch Active2/Galaxy Earbuds combo + Travel Adapter with a device of your choice. Now, since Samsung is not giving charger in the box, isn’t that a welcome perk of jumbo size?
