Samsung Galaxy Note 20’s chipset might not be that bad after all

With the Galaxy Note 20 launch just a week away, all eyes will be on what upgrades Samsung brings to the table. While the chipset might remain unchanged, there might be a silver lining. While Samsung flagship like the Note series and the S series are powered by Snapdragon chipsets in the US and European markets, they come with Exynos chipset in Asian markets such as India. It often tends to lose out on the performance front against Qualcomm Snapdragon counterparts. However, a new leak suggests some good news in this regard.

Here is the cheapest external drive per gigabyte you can buy right now

Here is the cheapest external drive per gigabyte you can buy right now

If you're on the lookout for a new storage drive, you can grab a Seagate Desktop external hard drive with an 8TB capacity for just under $132 from Amazon (roughly £105/AU$210), including free shipping.

This desktop drive comes with an 18-inch USB cable (with a flat end) and an 18W external power supply unit, plus a 1-year limited warranty. 

You can connect it to a compatible device via a USB 3.0 port, but the drive doesn’t feature any additional external ports like some competitors.

According to Seagate, the drive (which is preformatted to Windows) allows users to transfer content at up to 160MBps. It uses a 3.5-inch external hard disk drive based on SMR technology, which means the write speeds are likely to be very slow.

Despite associated taxes and shipping, it could still be cheaper for non-US customers to purchase the device from Amazon. At $16.5 per TB, it is the cheapest-per-terabyte storage - internally or externally - available anywhere.

Best phones for battery: 8 smartphone stamina champs

TechRadar - All the latest technology news Best phones for battery: 8 smartphone stamina champs Ever since we traded phones with buttons for tiny touchscreen computers 10 years ago, we've complained about smartphone battery life.  We've gained great cameras, Instagram and mobile games that look better than some console titles - but we've also inherited the need to charge our phones every day. And we're still not happy about it. TechRadar reviews just about every major phone that makes it to shelves in the US, UK and Australia, though. We know about the phones that will keep partying 'til 3am, and those that might pass out before you finish work if you dare to listen to a podcast or do some gaming on your lunch break. You might wonder how some of these phones are doing well with smaller batteries - that's because it's not about the size of the power pack, but how well optimised it is. Here are the top phones of the moment we've teste...
