Reading Time: 2 minutes

For some time now, Android tablets haven’t gotten as much attention from consumers and manufacturers as Apple’s iPads have. That hasn’t stopped Samsung from still putting out premium tablets though. During the most recent Unpacked event, Samsung unveiled its latest high-end Android tablets: the Galaxy Tab S7 and Tab 7+. In this article, we would look at the similarities and differences between these two tablets and also what makes them special when compared to other Android tablets. 

Similarities

Both tablets come with a 120Hz refresh rate display. They both have the same processor and storage options, four speakers, identical cameras, a USB-C connector, and also an updated S-pen included with both devices in the box. They also have a 16:10 aspect ratio, which makes them better suited for watching video over productivity.

 

Differences 

Display

Even though they both come with 120Hz refresh rate displays, the Tab S7 has a smaller 11’’ IPS LCD while the Tab S7+ has a 12’’ Super AMOLED screen.

 

Hardware And Features

The Tab S7 has its fingerprint sensor mounted on the side while the Tab S7+ comes with an in-display fingerprint. The Tab S7 caps at 4G LTE connectivity while the Tab S7+ has support for 5G. In terms of battery, the Tab S7 packs an 8000mAh powerhouse while the Tab S7+ has a 10090mAh battery. There is support for up to 45watts of charging speeds on both devices but they both lack the headphone jack. There are keyboard cases that attach to the tablet to give you the laptop experience and help make you more productive with your tablet.

 

Pricing And Availability

The Tab S7 and Tab S7+ are currently available in the US and some select markets and their pricing starts from $649 and $849 respectively.

 

Thoughts

While these tablets are top-notch and offer promising performance and all, we would have to wait to share our final thoughts about it. But if you are in the market for a device you can use for both entertainment and productivity while being easy to carry around, the Tab S7 or Tab S7+ would be an option worth considering especially as an iPad competitor.

Unlimited Internet for Ghana: Starlink’s Satellite-Based Solution Now Available!

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

TLDR;

  • Starlink has officially launched in Ghana, allowing users to purchase a kit directly from their website for Gh¢5604.00 (hardware and shipping) and Gh¢770.00/month (unlimited internet).
  • The service aims to provide connectivity to underserved areas, such as remote communities, farms, and offshore rigs, rather than replacing existing urban infrastructure.
  • Starlink’s presence in Ghana is expected to drive competition, prompting local telcos and ISPs to offer better internet deals, and potentially leading to more accessible and affordable connectivity solutions in the future.

 

After months of waiting and constantly refreshing the Stalink availability map, they have finally officially commenced operations in Ghana, They sent out emails to all those who signed up for their pre-order when they first made announcements of planning to set up operations in Ghana.

You can now go to their official website to get a kit and ship it directly to your house without going through any third party or middleman.

 The official cost on their website is ¢770.00 a month for internet connectivity, which will be unlimited, and Gh¢5604.00 for  Hardware and shipping. 

For most people, paying ¢770.00 a month for unlimited internet is a really good deal, but they won’t take a step towards getting it because of the cost of the kit. But STARLINK is primarily meant to provide “CONNECTIVITY WHERE YOU LEAST EXPECT IT” and not to replace Fibre and broadband options in the major cities or become that ubiquitous.

It is not their goal that every household should have a Starlink kit installed. But rather a lot of places where connectivity is & has been a major challenge up until now, get that solution. (ie. Remote areas, hinterlands, farms, on ships & boats, offshore rigs, mines & construction sites, etc) 

However, they know how good the technology & solution are such that there’s increased demand and people would want to scale it up/utilize it by diversifying into other connectivity solutions; which might be more accessible or affordable for more people.

THE STARS ALIGN FOR STARLINK TO FINALLY COME TO GHANA.

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Starlink, the satellite internet company founded by Elon Musk, has received authorization from Ghana’s National Communications Authority (NCA) to start operations by the end of August 2024. This approval comes after several months of discussions between the NCA and SpaceX, Starlink’s parent company, primarily due to licensing and regulatory hurdles.



This milestone is viewed as a major boost for Ghana’s technological progress, given Starlink’s reputation for reliability across 102 countries.

Starlink operates using a network of low-Earth-orbit satellites that communicate with one another and with ground stations to provide high-speed, low-latency internet. This technology is well-suited for enhancing connectivity for both individuals and businesses.

Could the arrival of such a major international ISP see the local ISPs rise to the occasion, potentially leading to more innovative solutions and advancements in the sector or, would it simply blow them out of the water?

TLDR;

  • OpenAI will provide the US AI Safety Institute early access to its upcoming safety test, aiming to collaborate on improving AI evaluation methods.
  • OpenAI is dedicating at least 20% of its computing resources to safety initiatives, following the dissolution of its Superalignment team, though a release date for the safety test is not yet specified.
  • In response to recent criticisms, OpenAI has taken steps to enhance transparency, including removing non-disparagement clauses for employees and making efforts to improve internal practices.

 

OpenAI has announced that it will grant the US AI Safety Institute early access to its upcoming safety test, as detailed in a tweet by OpenAI founder Sam Altman on X.

Altman explained that the aim of this early access is to collaborate on advancing the science of AI evaluations.

In the same post, Altman also emphasised OpenAI’s commitment to dedicating at least 20% of its computing resources to safety initiatives. This commitment was intended to be executed by the now-dissolved Superalignment team, which was co-led by Jan Leike, Head of Alignment, and Ilya Sutskever, co-founder and Chief Scientist of OpenAI. However, a specific release date for the safety test has yet to be announced.

Addressing recent criticisms, Altman suggested that OpenAI has taken meaningful steps to enhance transparency as part of its safety measures.

He noted, “In May, we eliminated non-disparagement clauses for both current and former employees and removed provisions that allowed OpenAI—though they were never used—to cancel vested equity. We’ve made significant efforts to rectify these issues and improve our practices.”
