Samsung Galaxy A6 - Samsung Galaxy A6+

Anyway, the Galaxy A6 is powered by a Exynos 7870 chipset previously seen in the A3 (2017) and several J-series phones. The chip has eight Cortex-A53 cores and a Mali-T830 MP1 GPU.

Just like the recent Galaxy J8 leak, the Galaxy A6+ model uses a Snapdragon 625 instead (same CPU, Adreno 506 GPU). The Plus model has more RAM too – 4GB instead of 3GB. Both models run Android 8.0 Oreo (hurrah for Trebble).

Breaking Star India renews BWF media rights till 2021

MUMBAI: Star Sports has renewed its Badminton World Federation (BWF) media rights for a four-year cycle. The deal is from 2018 to 2021 as per BWF calendar.

Star India-owned BWF’s official media rights for India for the previous four-year term (2014-2017) which expired in December 2017. Since there was a delay in extending the association between Star and BWF, fans ended up missing several events including the Indonesia Masters in January where Saina Nehwal had reached the final, before going down to her nemesis Tai Tzu Ying for her seventh successive loss to the top rank holder.
