HTC One X or Galaxy S III, which one???

Homeland gadget enthusiast who wants to woo upscale may be Android phones had to wonder, which is better between the HTC One X or Galaxy S III. Both also have their respective advantages are difficult to surpass.

One either X or Galaxy S III is the best product of the two vendors are the best Android manufacturers. No wonder if they both have very loyal users.

One X is present in HTC in May 2012 and then, faster than the new Galaxy S III went on sale last week. This of course has a distinct advantage for a vendor HTC launched the first mobile quad core in Indonesia.

But does that mean HTC One X will be more in demand than the Galaxy S III? Not guarantee it, because so many variables that affect whether or not selling a product.

Well, as a reference, Media Kita are going a little compare some excellent features that exist in the Galaxy One X and S III. What are they?

Just Slender Body
About the design, it is absolutely a matter of taste and the results can vary. But no doubt these two phones on board has been able to attract at first sight.

Galaxy S III and X One brought together a solid plastic material polycarbote. The difference is, mobile phones made by HTC made the unibody package, so it looks more sturdy and solid.
While the Galaxy S III, the materials used are the same, but the back cover feels very thin. Only about as thick as two sheets of HVS, so it seemed fragile when removed. But when the phone is held in the hand feels mantab.

Media Kita compared coincidence that both of them are white. But Samsung chose the easy shiny white scar on his hands and smooth, while the HTC wearing a pretty white ivory sticks in hand.

About the weight and dimensions of the latter is also not far adrift. One 4.7-inch X using the screen, while the Galaxy S III is slightly larger by 4.8 inches. Automatic, the phone made by HTC is a little lighter than a Samsung. But only 3 grams so not too pronounced.

Same clarity screen, but ..

Galaxy S III carries the super AMOLED screen which does have the most 'daring' than any other screen. But Super IPS LCD display that carried two X One is equally great.

Media Kita
experience when comparing the two products are, Galaxy S III does have better color depth. Even the video display and the image looks more colorful even on the phone.

While HTC One X excels at several types of uses, such as the two mobile phones used in the hot sun Jakarta. Although both are still clearly legible, but the One X is superior to an adequate level of information. For the record, both are already set at the maximum light level.

Even so about the view angle, aka the point of view. One X screen has a wider angle. So the screen is still pretty sight to a certain angle without reducing quality.

Duel 8 MP Camera
Incidentally both have the same great camera, the same 8 MP, so it is fair to be matched.

Galaxy S III shots outdoors is very good. The color is sharp, with decent lighting combination of raised thumbs. But while in the room One X is appropriate because it has superior aperture F2.0 lens, so it can absorb more light.

Both cameras can also direct the focus quickly, and both have supported the touch focus. And when pressed 'shutter button', each captured image was stored in a flash.

Well, armed with a camera other than a very good quality, they are also equipped with a myriad of features are good. Start of the burst mode, panorama, HDR, macro, and others.

But it must be admitted that the burst mode X One more comfortable than the Galaxy S III. To use the user simply pressing the shutter button for as long as desired, but if the Galaxy S III process is a bit complicated.

Users must first activate the burst mode on the application used, then the new camera can be used to quickly snap. But that was only limited to 20 frames.

But when it comes to macros, aka take close-up photographs, X One must bow the knee before the Galaxy S III.

Samsung-made phone that is capable of capturing images up to a distance that is very close, the detail was good enough for the size of the phone. Unlike the One X is very difficult to focus when targeting objects at close range. And when taken of the results are erratic.

Processor 4 'Brain' Powerful
Indeed, both are armed by the processor core 4 which is very powerful. But HTC chose Nvidia Tegra 3, and Samsung use a homemade chip Exynos 4212 Quad. How it performs in comparison?

The resulting overall energy level Exynos 4212 Quad on Tegra 3 is faster 100 MHz. These results are not absolute and depends on each application penujian.

In the benchmark application Quadrant for example, the Galaxy managed to outperform the S III One X with a score that far adrift. While in AnTuTu and NenaMark 2 results were also similar, Galaxy S III proved superior.

Even so Nvidia Tegra 3 still offers a number of advantages, upamanya processors 'reserve' that makes it more power efficient. Not to mention the support of dozens of games that can be downloaded on the Tegra Zone.

Much-Most Features
Lots of features embedded in both the phones are expensive, and each has exclusive features that no dipesaingnya. Voice call it the S-selling Galaxy S III.

This feature works similarly to the iPhone Siri 4S but with slight differences. With S Voice users can open the application, meeting schedule, see the weather forecast and so on. Stay command.

In addition to the Galaxy S III also had a lot of features, there is that makes the phone Stay Smart stay awake when viewed. Then Play Pop Pop-ups that can be used to display videos overlap with the application being used.
Meanwhile HTC have Beats Audio is held. Here Beats functions can be activated on all types of headset, and with these features mengatifkan then heard the sound track that will be felt more 'kick'.

So, Better Where?

Which is better is difficult to determine. Galaxy S III which has many outstanding features and power, and priced around $ 7 million. While HTC One X is no less sophisticated the most expensive sold Rp 6.6 million.

Both also have unique characteristics, so the choice is still falling under each of the needs of prospective users. Want a great power pnya, abundant features, may be meilirk Samsung Galaxy S III.

While you are concerned with the camera, the awesome beauty of the screen and booming sound can taste HTC One X at a price slightly cheaper. Thus, it can determine which one?

Virus Flame is a Weapon "Cyber​​" A Country

Cyber ​​war has gone further. Equipment "war" is even more diverse and sophisticated. One is a virus or malware. In fact, now emerging viruses / malware is very sophisticated and complex in the form of attack toolkit.

It is a dangerous virus is the "Flame". Virus found Kaspersky Lab team is specifically designed to spy on computer users who are infected with a variety of ways.

As malware Stuxnet and Duqu who had made a mess of Iran's nuclear reactor project, Flame was allegedly a "cyber weapons" that had been launched by a country to achieve specific goals.

"Malware Flame seems to be the next stage of the war (cyber). It is important to note is that the cyber weapon of this kind can be used to attack any country," said Eugene Kaspersky, CEO and founder of Kaspersky Lab, said in a statement quoted by Wired.

If Stuxnet has a specific target of the industry, Flame specifically targeted businesses and universities, and only infect no more than 5,000 personal computers around the world, allegedly over a network or USB stick.

Limited deployment is alleged to have a goal to avoid detection as long as possible. Flame is estimated to have been circulating since 2010, adjacent to the discovery that caught Stuxnet because spreads are too wild. Kaspersky Lab Flame recently discovered two weeks ago.

"In terms of sophistication and the area surrounding the spreading of certain countries in the Middle East, no doubt, is (Flame) sponsored by a state," said Alexander Gostev, Head of Global Research and Analysis Kaspersky in his blog.

Gostev malware makers to categorize into three groups based on the complexity and characteristics of the attack, the hacktivist, cyber criminals, and the state (nation-state). According to him, Flame into the latter category. Gostev also said the Flame to give a new direction for digital warfare and espionage.

Flame infect a number of computers in certain countries in the Middle East, including Iran, Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, and Syria. Malware authors are not known.

Unlike the Stuxnet which are also classified as "cyber weapons", Flame seems designed not to damage the system, but to collect data in a way to spy on the infected user's computer.

Currently active on the computer, Flame detecting and intercepting network traffic audio conversations, whether done through software, like Skype, or by activating a computer microphone.

This malware is also able to record keyboard keystrokes, take screenshots, intercept e-mail, and even detect and steal data from a bluetooth device.

Stolen data collected Flame then encrypted and sent to a number of domain "Command and Control" maker's spread all over the world and can be changed to another address at any time if the domain in question is closed or abandoned.

Flame is so sophisticated functions, the experts estimated it took years to learn what things can-and will-made malware.

Rumors that the recent cyber attack weapon appears to be intended to pressure Iran in its nuclear program negotiations. Flame was first discovered in the Iranian Oil Ministry's computer.

In addition to Flame, also found another malware named "Viper" is trying to erase the data from the server.

Flame: Most Advanced Computer Virus

A new computer virus that was mentioned most sophisticated found. The virus, dubbed the Flame was reportedly intended to attack Iran and several countries in the Middle East.

Tracked by anti-virus vendor Kaspersky, this otherwise very complicated virus, 20 times more powerful than other cyberwarfare programs that have been detected. Including Stuxnet, a virus that never make a scene for attacking Iran's nuclear facilities.

Therefore, this virus is almost certainly made ​​by the government of a country. Iran has repeatedly accused Western countries and Israel to make malicious programs to attack them. In addition to Stuxnet, other malicious programs that have hit Iran is Duqu.

Flame has advanced capabilities. Such as collecting confidential data, change the settings of your computer remotely, turn on a computer microphone to record conversations, take a screenshot and copy the conversation in instant messaging.

Kapsersky themselves asking for help to understand this virus. They say the virus code 20 times the size of most malicious software program. This virus actually been around since 5 years ago and infect a computer in Iran, Israel, Sudan, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and Egypt.

"If the Flame was not found for five years, the logical conclusion is that there are other ongoing operations that we do not know," said Roel Schouwenberg, senior security researcher Kaspersky.

Alan Woodward professor of computer science department of University of Surrey confirmed the complexity of virus Flame. These malicious programs can pick up information by copying typed on the keyboard and the sound of those around.

"The virus is not made by a teenager in her room. Virus is a large, complex and intended to steal data while remaining hidden for a long time," he quoted from the Telegraph, Tuesday (05/29/2012).

Apple Prepare Digital Pen "iPen"

Apple has patented technology for stylus pen at the Office of Patents and Trademarks United States, Thursday (05/24/2012). Most likely, Apple's intelligent stylus will be named IPEN.

Generally do not like the stylus, stylus Apple's work could be called intelligent because it can give feedback (feed back). Stylus can feel the vibration, how much pressure a user when drawing. When the pressure of the stylus is rather strong, so he can draw a thicker line.

Stylus also can provide feedback such as vibration, when users draw out or nearly crossed the line.

Uniquely, the digital pen can also give voice to stimulate the action of the user. Stylus will make a sound that was a pencil drawing on paper, or brush that are painting on canvas.

In his patent files, Apple also promised a stylus can be used in the air, without having direct contact with the screen.

All functions can be done because of Apple's technology utilizes accelerometers, gyroscopes, and a camera embedded in the stylus.

Currently, there are some stylus for iPad made ​​by third parties. However, none of the stylus which has the same function as that patented by Apple.

This stylus patent marks a change in Apple's strategy in the business of mobile devices. Because, the late Steve Jobs had mocked the stylus in 2007 ago is widely used as an accessory. "Who wants a stylus? You have to get it, save it, and eliminate them," complained Jobs.

Now, No Need Graphics Card For playing Weight "Game"

Although it has been available since a long time, the technology on-board graphics are graphics processors together with the motherboard or processor unit is often underestimated.

You see, on-board graphics cards are usually more sluggish than a separate graphics card. Let alone to play the game, running Windows was sometimes still faltered.

Trying to change that view through the Intel-powered embedded graphics processors in the Core-i "Third Generation" known popularly as "Ivy Bridge".

On processors from families "Ivy Bridge" there are HD 4000 graphics processor and Intel's HD 2500 has a claimed speed of up to two times higher than the previous generation.

Intel also said that the Core's integrated graphics processor-i "Third Generation" is already sufficient to play complex 3D games though.

To prove this, Intel Channel Platform Manager David Tjahjadi HD 4000 Intel demonstrated the ability to run the game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in HD resolution (1280x720) in a discussion of media in Jakarta, Monday (05/28/2012).

Based on the observation KompasTekno, the corresponding game can run smoothly without jerky although some advanced graphics features such as anti-aliasing also activated.

"Instead of just playing the game, also has the Intel integrated graphics acceleration capabilities QuickSync that can accelerate certain tasks, like encoding video with Cyberlink Espresso applications," explained David.

According to him, the acceleration of Intel's QuickSync can now be used in a number of applications, "As in the form of plug-ins for Adobe Premier video editing applications and Cyberlink."

Furthermore, David said that Intel was approached by software developers to use the acceleration QuickSync in their artificial applications. "By distributing Software Development Kit (SDK) to developers, such as OpenCL HandBrake with her."

Intel is not the only manufacturers that provide the processor with a powerful integrated graphics processors. Its rival, AMD, also has equipped CPU with integrated graphics Radeon homemade is even mentioned having a higher speed than its competitors.

New Ways Virus Attacks

Many new ways that do hackers to spread viruses in cyberspace. Here are some new type of attack that was launched by Kaspersky.

In April 2012, reported 700 thousand Mac OS X computers worldwide are infected with Trojan Flashback. Infected computers to be combined into a botnet that was given Flashfake, allowing cybercriminals to add other malicious module into the computer.

Way is quite unique and relatively new in cyberspace. Even Flashfake attack had begun seeping into the WordPress blog in late February to early March 2012. About 85% of these blogs are in the United States.

According to Kaspersky, it's only one kind of new attacks in cyberspace. Here is another type of attack is also very dangerous.

Blackhole Exploit Kit
Kaspersky Lab reported the presence of two activities that use Spam Blackhole Exploit Kit to install malware. The first occurrence is found on Twitter, where more than 500 infected accounts.

Activity is sending spam to the users twitter link that directs them to malicious sites that have Blackhole Exploit Kit, then the site will be installing scareware into the computer in the form of fake anti-virus notification is sent to computer users scan their systems to look for infection.

Email Phishing
This method is actually quite old school, but now increasingly enhanced by various acts of deception that spit. One case in point occurred in late March when many users receive a spoofed email U.S. Airways.

The cyber criminals phishing email in an effort to deceive the people are clicking on the email sent. The link offers a 'reservation details online', including a choice of check-in flight with U.S. Airways.

If a link is clicked, the user will be redirected to a fake website which contains the Blackhole Exploit Kit contains a banking malware. Banking malware will install itself into the computer and steal confidential data online banking users.

These spam messages sent in bulk while the criminals the people who will be waiting to book flights with U.S. Airways, and directing them to click a link in the email you send.

Mobile Phone Malware
Early April, a new type of Android malware found in Japan. Unfortunately, the incidence in Japan is nearly 30 malicious applications are available on Google Play and at least 70 thousand users have downloaded one of 30 such applications.

Malware of this type can be connected to a server that has been determined. If a connection occurs, the malware will download the MP4 video file. This malware is also capable of stealing confidential information from the infected device, including contact names, email addresses and a list of telephone numbers available in the Android device. Kaspersky Mobile Security detects this malware as Trojan.AndroidOS.FakeTimer.

TigerBot
Another type of attack that strikes a smart phone users are TigerBot, malware is controlled via short messages are increasingly popular.

Some time ago this malware infects a number of devices found. Remarkably, these malicious programs do not perform any suspicious activity. But if there are further examined various commands allow cyber criminals to record phone conversations, stealing GPS coordinates, text or change the network configuration.

Fortunately, this malware is not up to Google meyambangi Play. However the owner of the phone should still be careful when installing the application from anywhere. Kaspersky Mobile Security detects this malware as Backdoor.AndoidOS.TigerBot.
