Samsung Galaxy S7 release date, price, specs, features

AndroidPIT MWC 2016 teaser

The Samsung Galaxy S7 launch is just around the corner and a recent leak has shown just how much we have to look forward to

When’s the Samsung Galaxy S7 release date? That’s a question I get asked A LOT. Truth is, we don't know for sure — and neither does anyone else. However, we do know, based on consistent rumours from reliable sources, that the handset will launch inside Q1 - more than likely just ahead of Mobile World Congress 2016 in Barcelona, Spain (which kicks off offically on February 22). This means it will most likely be available either very late on in Q1, ie: March, or very early inside Q2, ie: April.
The other question we get asked a lot is to do with the Galaxy Note 5. Specifically, what the HELL is going on with its release date. A rumour from a few months ago suggested the handset would be available in European before the end of January. It is now January 29 and we’ve still got no official announcement on whether or not the Galaxy Note 5 will come to the UK. 
Samsung usually releases its Note devices in late-Q2, early-Q3, so while there is still plenty of time for the Galaxy Note 5 in the UK. Nevertheless, the longer the company leaves it the less likely a release becomes; Samsung will not want the Note 5 interfering with the launch of the Galaxy S7, for instance, which is just around the corner. Also, the Note 5 is not a new handset anymore, so could Samsung even charge top dollar for it in the UK anyway? 
In terms of details and features, however, we know quite a bit about the Samsung Galaxy S7 already; there have been hundreds of leaks during the past month. But now @evleaks is back on the scene, things have, well, escalated. No one gets access quite like this guy. And the info he gets is usually very solid.
Samsung will launch its Galaxy S7 handset on February 21. Media invites as well as a new promo video for the Galaxy S7 appeared over the weekend, confirming previous rumours that said Samsung would release its new flagship in and around MWC 2016. 
Samsung’s Galaxy VR headset makes an appearance in the video too, implying some likely cross-over functionality with the upcoming Galaxy S smartphone. Also, we now know EXACTLY what Samsung’s Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 EDGE will look like, thanks to the one and only @evleaks.

DNS Tunneling Attack - You might know this !

-

  Introduction: In the world of cybersecurity, attackers continuously explore new techniques to bypass network defenses and exfiltrate sensitive information. One such technique gaining prominence is DNS tunneling. DNS tunneling allows attackers to use the DNS protocol as a covert communication channel, exploiting its ubiquitous nature and inherent characteristics. This blog post delves into the concept of DNS tunneling, its working mechanism, potential risks, and methods to mitigate this emerging threat. Understanding DNS Tunneling: DNS (Domain Name System) is the backbone of the internet, responsible for translating domain names into IP addresses. Its primary purpose is to facilitate communication between devices. However, this fundamental protocol can be manipulated to serve as a covert channel for data transmission. DNS tunneling involves encapsulating data within DNS queries and responses, effectively bypassing network security measures that may not scrutinize DNS traffic as c...

The New LG OLED TV with 4K

It doesn't seem too long ago that we were questioning whether OLED TV would really take off, but since then a slew of ultra-thin screens have passed through our testing rooms. Our verdict? OLED TVs were definitely worth the wait. With the rapid evolution of televisions over the past few years, we've seen new technologies from 3D to Smart content to  4K Ultra HD  resolution all become established features. OLED has managed to work its way on to the long list of TV jargon too, with its main selling point being ultra-dark blacks and super-bright whites. The first OLED TVs started to hit the shelves in 2013 but they were few and far between, and expensive . These sets gave us a glimpse at what all the fuss was about, with a revolution in picture quality and slimline design promised - a 4K OLED TV became the holy grail in many AV enthusiasts' minds. But that promise appeared to wane somewhat during 2014. First there was news that Sony and Panasonic ha...

Protect Your Smartphone's Data, and Avoid Being Hacked

The government  hack of an iPhone  used by a San Bernardino killer serves as a reminder that phones and other electronic devices aren't impenetrable vaults. While most people aren't targets of the  NSA , FBI or a foreign government, hackers are looking to steal the financial and personal information of ordinary people. Your phone stores more than just selfies. Your email account on the phone, for instance, is a gateway to resetting banking and other sensitive passwords. Like washing your hands and brushing your teeth, a little "cyber hygiene" can go a long way toward preventing disaster. Lock your phone with a passcode Failing to do so is like leaving your front door unlocked. A four-digit passcode - and an accompanying self-destruct feature that might wipe a phone's data after too many wrong guesses - stumped the FBI for weeks and forced them to bring in outside help. Using six digits makes a passcode 100 times harder to guess. And if you want to m...
