This is one reason why the 12MP news is being taken quite positively by the analysts.

Android And iPhone Users Still Favor GoPro Inc




Internationally, GoPRo Inc. continues to progress well around the world, although slight fall is observed in the Google Inc. searches during last week. The analysis proved that Android and iPhone users prefer GoPro cameras to all the camera companies.

As Android and iPhone are the largest selling brand, many users are following them in the vast majority and demand GoPro camera in the cellphones. On Monday, two analysts from the Dougherty & Company, Jessica McHugh and Charles Anderson, released their latest weekly review regarding GoPro. They reported that the fall of 3% is observed in the global searches for GoPro per year.

This year, the company’s app moved down around 36% on Apple app store as compared to the last year, as compared to the last week’s downfall by 34%. Similarly, it declined down by 19% on the graph on Google Play Store against the last week’s 1% percent fall. Over 39% drop is seen year-over-year on the iPad regarding GoPro Inc. (NASDAQ:GPRO) app downloading as compared to the declination of 34% last week.

Analyst team by Dougherty also compared the company’s trade in China according to the statistical data they have. The team matched its trade with the domestic opponents, such as Xiaomi. Throughout this survey, they examined that Android and iPhone are the giant traders in this field, giving priority to GoPro accessories over Xiaomi.

Moreover, with respect to the most downloaded app in Google Play’s Photography section, they observed a significant difference between Xiaomi’s camera app ranked at 40th position and GoPro’s app ranked at 27th position. In China, the organization’s app retains its place at 157 on iPhone store against Xiami’s spot in 224th position.

This summer, the organization is releasing its new application pertaining to video editing, which will definitely bless the company with further benefits, and seems that it would be the step forward and the reply to the analysts’ call who wants GroPro to bring something new in the field of video editing.

According to the analysts, decline does not matter because the company exceeds in Google searches in the past year’s 4th quarter and the first two smooth quarters this year. The main reason for this fame is the vast majority of the consumers that become familiar to the specific brand. The number of searches for this brand is expected to decline soon because everybody will gain the knowledge about the brand and its offers.

The count of application downloaded in the smartphones does not include the purchasers of GoPro’s economical camera, known as “Hero”, which is priced at $130. This happened because it does not include Wi-Fi. Similarly, the number of app installation does not count the returning purchasers of GoPro because they have that app already.

Apple To Hire More Women For Employment



The software giant has decided to increase women and blacks in its workforce following the increased pressure from the public.

Apple Inc has been receiving pressure from the software industry for the purpose of hiring more females than it already was hiring and to maintain a balance between all classes and sexes so that equality can be observed. The Silicon Valley giant was one of those firms that were not carrying out this in the manner that was approved by the general public and was receiving criticism from the critics in the industry for a long period of time.

However, the recent news discusses the efforts of the iPhone makers that are being made to bring a change in that by hiring more and more women in different departments and not just offer job positions to the males. Moreover, there has also been a complaint about how the Californian firm is also quite biased about hiring different people of different classes for job, giving more preference to the whites and Asians than to the blacks and Hispanics.

Apple business team has released a report in which it states that the firm has been hiring quite a lot of women and also blacks, something that was not taking place previously. Analysts, on the other hand, believe that this did not have much of an effect on the total workforce that the firm has but it was still being taken as an improved effort by the company.

One thing to be taken into consideration is that almost all the companies in the Silicon Valley have been observing inequality towards women which was not being taken well by the people of the industry. The pressure from the public has been increasing which is why Apple decided to do something about it. The Congress has also been ahead in the process of trying to make all such giants of the industry to change their hiring agenda.

A report was recently released from Apple software in which it discussed how it is now working towards offering the same jobs to all the classes of people and will not focus on just the whites or males. This report has reportedly been similar to the ones released by huge firms like Google and Facebook that have been criticized for the same problem.

Apple has reported in the release that around 35 percent increase has been recorded in the hiring of women in the company for the past year and around 24 percent black people were added to the workforce of firm which shows how much the Californian giant is working towards the addition of all classes of people in the company.

Intel Corporation Releases New Version Of Xeon Server Chips For Laptops

INTC News




Yesterday, information technology website, Ars Technica, reported that Intel Corporation declared it will introduce a brand new version of chips for the Xeon servers, which is specially constructed for the efficient-conscious and professional users, who wants official working capabilities in a portable and compact device.

Recently, Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) declared to launch Xeon Server Chip for laptops. The Xeon family E3 1500M v5 is capable enough and have the same strength of working as modernized desktop personal computers, and soon in future, these chips will be installed in Laptops. Still the company did not report the detailed report about the new chips.

The chips will be based on the Skylake chips structure, which was launched last week. It claimed that only one of these devices would be able to support a shaft to three connections, so it means that there would be another USB Type C-port supported by laptops. The speed of the laptops will be raised up to 10 GB per second by this tech.

When Microsoft Corporation introduces Windows 10, as it started transitioning towards becoming service-oriented firm, it directly and/or indirectly compelled many equipment manufacturers to have small in size, portable, and more active devices to serve users. Due to new industry standard, hardware manufacturers are running fast to update machines. Now chips are designed smaller because of advance manufacturing efficiency, and made them fast and efficient.

Intel has already acknowledged about their future intentions while stating, “The next-generation Intel Xeon product families demonstrate leadership performance and scalability to handle any workload in systems with up to 32 sockets available and have industry-leading 1.5TB capability per socket, breaking several benchmark records that represent business intelligence analytics, business processing and infrastructure consolidation."

The corporate giant is looking forward to give different kind of chips on various sort of hardware to users, to promote its acceptance rate among the new generation The competition is tough and market is ‘red hot’, let see who will win the hearts of users, who will trim the chip most, and make it more powerful.
