Top ten (10) Galaxy s4 Features

Samsung Galaxy S4
Gestures, Voice, and Motion Control


1. Air Gesture: If waving your hand over your phone to control it seems silly, you might be tempted to skip the Air Gesture settings altogether. Our advice: don’t. The Air Browse function might not appeal, but the ability to answer a call and turn the speakerphone on by just waving a hand over the phone is useful and pretty cool. We also suggest trying Quick Glance – wave your hand over the screen when it’s off to see the time and important notifications, such as new email.


2. Motion Control: The more smartphones become the center of our lives, the less time we want to spend tapping at them to make stuff happen. Efficiency is what these motion controls are about, particularly the Turn Over To Mute/Pause and Direct Call, which will automatically call the contact on the screen if you hold the S4 up to your ear.

3. S Voice Drive: Samsung’s answer to Siri, S Voice, isn’t as impressive as Apple’s digital assistant, and most owners probably won’t spend a lot of time talking to it. One place it will prove useful is in the car, so Samsung created a special version of S Voice for that environment. Users activate it by voice (Driving Mode On) and the interface changes slightly to show larger text and icons that can be read at a glance plus simplified and easy-to-remember commands. We found that S Voice is good at recognizing commands and gets better the more you use it.


Smart Settings


4. Wi-Fi Smart Mode: Using Wi-Fi whenever possible is a good way to cut down on carrier data usage and save battery life, but unless you leave the wireless radio on all the time you might forget to connect when you’re near a known router. With this smart mode turned on, the Galaxy S4 will detect when you’re in frequently visited locations and turn on the Wi-Fi for you. On our review unit, this feature was on by default. If your phone keeps connecting to a router even if you turned the radio off, this is why. To toggle it off and on, go to Wi-Fi in the Settings menu.

5. Smart Screen: We’re big fans of the Smart Stay feature, first introduced with the Galaxy S3, which keeps the screen turned on if it knows you’re still looking at the phone. This is back on the S4 along with a few other eye-detecting tricks. Smart Scroll is supposed to let you scroll through text by tilting the phone slightly as you look at the screen, though we couldn’t get it to work consistently; it also only works with a few apps. Instead, turn on Smart Rotation to keep the screen oriented to your eyes. We’ve all had that moment of using the phone while on your side in bed or on the couch and having to turn off screen rotation so it doesn’t go landscape when you want to stay in portrait. Or even times when the phone tilts just enough to activate the rotation though that’s not what you were trying to do. With this feature, rotation won’t activate if it can tell that you’re looking at the screen, even if you’re doing so while horizontal.




Android Enhancements



6. Notification Panel: The Jelly Bean Notification shade is a step up from previous versions of Android utility-wise. Samsung adds to this by placing a row of toggles at the top for quick access to important features: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Airplane Mode, S Beam, and more. Way more. So many that the company leaves it up to you to prioritize the order. Tapping the grid icon in the top left gives access to all the toggles at once and an editing tool, so you can shuffle and order them according to your needs. In addition, you can tap and hold on any toggle to go directly to the settings for it. We also appreciate the quick access to Brightness controls.

7.Keyboard: The Galaxy S4′s keyboard utilizes SwiftKey technology for more accurate word predictions than the stock keyboard offers as well as a Swype-like Flow feature. Compared to the actual Swiftkey keyboard, Samsung’s is lackluster. There are fewer options for controlling the predictions and typing pattern, and the comma key still requires a long press, which is ridiculous. However, the keyboard has some extra features that make it worth keeping around.
Long press the mic key to access the handwriting, optical recognition, and floating keyboards. The handwriting keyboard is just as quick and accurate as the one on the Note 2 even without using a stylus. The OCR input takes advantage of the Optical Reader app – just point it at text, take a picture, crop it to include the text you need, then edit the results. One-handed users will like the floating keyboard since it’s smaller and can be placed anywhere on the screen. We also used the enhanced clipboard often as it retains the last 10 things copied to it and allows users to paste multiple items.


8.Multiwindow: Though the Galaxy S4′s display is quite large at 5 inches, splitting it in two for the Multiwindow feature might feel cramped. Multiview makes it possible to use two apps at one time. Unfortunately, it only works with a handful of apps. Still, we recommend giving it a try since the size of the app windows is adjustable and toggling back and forth between two apps can get frustrating.

Pre-loaded Apps

9.Optical Reader: This is one of the best apps included with the Galaxy S4 and is the perfect companion to the phone’s superior camera. It can scan and transcribe large blocks of text from a picture as well as recognize text in real time and translate it to and from English and dozens of other languages. The app will recognize business card data and, once transcribed, will add it to a Contact card’s appropriate fields automatically. You’re not limited to just one screenful of data since the wide sweep setting makes it easy to scan large pages of text, you just need a steady hand. That’s the app’s one weakness: it requires the text to be clear, and that means unsteady hands can hinder the operation. When we did get a crisp shots, the recognized text came up instantly and was almost always accurate. In addition to all this, Optical Reader also scans barcodes, so you don’t have to download an extra app for that anymore.


10. S Translator: You might not ever find an occasion to open up this app unless you travel widely or live in an area where not everyone speaks your language, such as a large city. If you do, you’ll find that S Translate can be a useful way to facilitate a conversation, as long as everyone is patient. Just choose a language, speak to the phone, and you’ll get a text translation and the words spoken aloud. The real power of this app is that it’s another one with tendrils in multiple places throughout the Galaxy S4′s software. Aside from the Optical Reader, you can also use it in the Samsung email app when reading or composing and it pops up as an option when you select text in most other Samsung apps. The translations aren’t always perfect, but we expect they will improve over time. Just watch out when it comes to data usage since the engine requires uploading and downloading the input to and from a server to work.

Top Ten fastest bikes in the world

10. Suzuki GSX-R750
On the number 10 spot is not a liter class bike but a 750 cc bike, the Suzuki GSX-R750. In 1985, this was the first bike which started the trend of sports bikes and later on super bikes. The 4 cylinder 3/4th liter motor develops 148 Bhp of surging power. This power combined with its light weight chassis ensures that the Gixxer reaches its top speed of 268 kmph really fast.

9. Ducati 1098S
Number 9 spot is taken up by the Ducati 1098S. When this bike was first revealed to the public in 2007, there was a frenzy of fans for this bike. This was the ideal machine for both the race track as also for daily road use. This Italian bike also boasts of having one of the highest power to weight ratios across all sections and road going bikes. This bike boasts of a top speed of 275 kmph from its 160 Bhp motor.

8. Honda CBR1000 RR
Number 8 space is occupied by the Honda CBR1000 RR. This bike was introduced in the year 2004 and the designers are none other than the ones who have built Honda’s Moto GP bikes. A 1 liter 4 cylinder liquid cooled engine does duty on this Fireblade enabling it to push out 178 Bhp. With all this power, the Honda could go only 1 kmph more than what the Ducati could do. However the Honda revved to a very high 13k rpm.
7. MV Augusta F4 R312
The MV Augusta F4 R312 is number 7 on our list and it is here for a good reason. Not only was this bike meant for racing purposes but it is also built with the intent of taking a lead in all the races that it participates in. It makes a cool 182 Bhp at 12,500 rpm. The top speed that one can muster on this Italian is 282 kmph.
6. Yamaha YZF- R1
On the number 6 position is the world famous Yamaha YZF- R1. This bike was a rage in 1998, the year that it was introduced and still is. The liter engine has got 16 valves with 4 cylinders and liquid cooling technology. Not only does the Yamaha achieve a top speed of 284 kmph but it also does 0-100 kmph in 3 seconds, just 0.1 seconds off the official timing of a Lamborghini Aventador.
5. Suzuki GSX-R1000
For the number 5th position is another Japanese, the Suzuki GSX-R1000, the bigger brother of the 750. While the R1 may not be attractive to look at, the Suzuki is one hell of a looker. Its 999 cc liquid cooled motor makes 192 Bhp of power at 12,100 rpm and this is enough to propel this bike to a top speed of 285 kmph.
4. Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R
Another Japanese slots in the number 4th position and this time it is Kawasaki making their debut in this list. The bike is the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R. From its ram air induction technology and 1 liter engine, this Ninja produces 198 Bhp of power which is more than enough to take this bike to its designated top speed of 288 kmph. As far as its desirability goes, this bike has quite a reputation of getting stolen and has the most claims for theft insurance.

3. Kawasaki Ninja ( Ninja ZZR1400)
The most powerful Kawasaki Ninja, the Ninja ZZR1400 makes its debut in the number three position. From its 1400 cc engine, this bike develops 190 Bhp of power at as low or high as 9500 rpm. This is enough to propel it to a top speed of 300 kmph and at the same time racing from 0-100 kmph in only 2.8 seconds.

2. Suzuki Hayabusa
We are sure that all of you guys must be wondering where the Suzuki Hayabusa, the legendary motorcycle, would be. Well, here it is at number 2 position. It also has a reputation of being the most powerful bikes in production across the world. Superbikes cannot get more maniacal than this and the Hayabusa has proved it time and again. As of now, this Busa does 302 kmph top speed runs however earlier on, some of the stock Hayabusas were seen clocking 325 kmph on a regular basis. Suzuki had to restrict its performance as it was seen as a death machine by many.


1. BMW S1000RR
The BMW S1000RR. If you would have noticed, the battle for the top spot was always fought between Japanese however it is an unsung German which finally clinches the top honors. Various Motorcycle of the Year awards plus Machine of the Year tags means that this radical looking motorbike is one of the best in the industry. It produces 193 Bhp of power at lofty 13500 rpm and its top speed is in the regions of 306 kmph. Its performance is enhanced to a great effect by its 181 kgs dry weight. Its radical styling may not win it many fans but it is the fastest stock production bike in the world as of now.

Top 10 Hotels in India


Top 10 Hotels in India

Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, Mumbai
Best Dining
This 565-room hotel weaves Moorish, Oriental and Florentine styles together: It features vaulted alabaster ceilings, onyx columns, archways, silk carpets, crystal chandeliers and a cantilever stairway. This diversity is also reflected in the hotel's dining venues, which happen to be Mumbai's hottest: the Middle Eastern Souk, Morimoto's Wasabi and the Zodiac Grill, where the menu changes each month to match the astrological sign.



The Leela Palace Kempinski, Bangalore
Best Business Hotel
Bangalore, India's third-largest city, has morphed into a hip, global technology center, attracting CEOs from Google, Yahoo!, IBM, Honeywell, and, of course, Bill Gates. The Leela Palace offers great accommodations and dining (at the lovely Jamavar) plus superior conference facilities. Expect to rub elbows with local resident Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, Biocon president and India's richest woman.



Devi Garh, Delwara Near Udaipur
Sexiest Design
From the outside, Devi Garh, an 18th-century Rajput palace-fort, looks just like so many of the majestic edifices throughout Rajasthan. But step inside and you'll find a totally reinvented minimalist décor. In one room, a sunken marble tub sits alone in a room looking at the Aravali Hills through floor-to-ceiling glass. Each of the 39 suites is embellished with marble and semi-precious stones. The hotel has a spa and can arrange camel rides.



Taj Lake Palace, Udaipur
Best Place For Romance
It's hard to top the setting of this white marble palace which seems to be floating atop Lake Pichola on its four-acre island pedestal. Adding to the storybook effect are the decorative details in the elegant suites: bohemian crystals, ornate glass work, green lotus leaves and cusped arches. The rooms look out on medieval gardens and hilltop fortresses.



The Four Seasons, Mumbai
Best Car Service
Driving conditions in India can be a little daunting. At the Four Seasons, the newest entrant to the country's luxury-hotel market, a fleet of 20 BMW Series 7s is available for guests--not that they'll need to go far: The glass tower hotel (whose 202 rooms look straight at the Arabian sea) is conveniently located in Worli, the city's financial center, obviously targeted to the increasing number of business travelers flocking to Mumbai.



Oberoi Amarvilas, Agra
Best Views Of The Taj Mahal
Views of the domed marble mausoleum are clear from practically every window of this property (including some bathrooms!). This hotel features Moghul architecture, terraced gardens and several reflection pools. The 103 rooms are decked out in rich purples, oranges and yellows.. Their marble bathrooms are stately with their imposing soaking tubs.


Best Desert Retreat
Amanresorts Amanbagh, Alwar
This ultra-deluxe resort sits on the former site of the Maharajah of Alwar's hunting lodge and personal pleasure garden. Amanbagh means "peaceful garden" and you'd be hard-pressed to find a more tranquil spot than this soft-sandstone hotel surrounded by graceful palms, fragrant eucalyptus and frangipani trees and manicured jade green lawns.. The elegant "haveli-style" rooms are among the largest in the country.


Oberoi Rajvilas, Jaipur
Best Tent Accommodations
Built in 1727, majestic Jaipur is also known as "The Pink City" for its oleander-rose buildings, domes and minarets. This smaller luxury hotel about five miles from the city center reflects Jaipur's colors and stateliness. It offers a variety of courtyard accommodations, from suites to air-conditioned luxury tents with teak floors, Edwardian claw-foot tubs and embroidered interior canopies. Flashlight not required


The Imperial, New Delhi
Best Common Spaces
Built in 1936, the landmark Imperial Hotel, with its parade of palm trees, glossy Italian marble floors, teak furnishings and high ceilings, will make you feel like you should have arrived on elephant, sword on hip. But don't worry; the spacious rooms--the Deco suites are particularly stunning--have all the modern conveniences. Ask the resident curator to guide you through the hotel's hanging collection of British art.
