The Infinix Hot 10 Play was launched in Kenya recently and is currently available in stores for around Ksh 15,500. There is the Infinix Hot and Hot 10 Lite that have been available in Kenya since last year.

I have been using the Infinix Hot 10 Play for about a week as my secondary phone and in this review, I will share my thoughts on it and hopefully…

For starters, the Reno5 not only inherits the advantages…

The OPPO Reno 5 is the latest in the Reno series and is currently available in Kenya for Ksh 41,999. I have been using the Reno 5 for well over a month testing a number of things and one of them is its gaming capabilities. I did manage to play a couple of games mainly PUBG and Asphalt 9 just to see how this phone handled those. The OPPO Reno 5 comes with a few upgraded specs compared to the Reno 4 but keeps some as they are like the Snapdragon 720G processor that powers both devices. The Reno 4’s…

For those on Android, you may have experienced an issue with some apps crashing every time you open them. This was the case the last two days for me and I was not sure what the problem was. The apps were from different developers and for a moment I thought the issue had something to do with my phone. Well, it looks like the problem has nothing to do with your smartphone. The problem was brought about by a buggy update to the Android System WebView app. The update was rolled out a couple of days back and affected a…

But health restrictions due to Covid-19 have not only limited social interactions but also physical activities that are an essential part of daily life.

The air we breathe contains many pollutants like dust as well as microbes like viruses, bacteria and fungi, also known as ambient air pollution. The World Health…

The itel A37 is the latest smartphone from the company to launch in Kenya and is currently available in the country for Ksh 6,690. This is the successor to the itel A36 that has been available in the country since last year. Given that the itel A37 is the successor to the A36, it makes perfect sense to compare the two and see what is new and if upgrading to the newer model is worth it. Both are pretty good phones but at the end of the day you have to choose one and in this case it should be…
