The Montreal dream pop trio Men I Trust make such warm, delicately twee bops, a single spin will make you want to buy gingham. But don’t be fooled: Beneath the surface of their sepia-toned, blissed-out sound are sharp, biting lyrics.
“Say, can you hear,” the lead single from their forthcoming first album with frontwoman Emma Proulx, Oncle Jazz, celebrates the power of observation. “You’re self absorbed, raving about your cryptic ways,” Proulx sings nonchalantly over a burst of vintage synths that sound like organs and bright, reverberant guitar. Proulx’s observations only get more cutting from there, as she notes how her subject walks through life with a ceaseless air of narcissism: “Waiting for the world to bend around you,” she sings with cool detachment in the refrain. The self-absorption comes across as chilling, and when met with the song’s perfectly chipper melody, “Say, can you hear” becomes jangle-pop fit for a David Lynch film.
, Download New Movie We are sending away 2018 and we look back and see what were the most popular phones over the past year. While there are 20 phones in the yearly selection, the list of manufacturers is scarce. To be more precise, two out of every three devices come from either Xiaomi or Samsung. Samsung brought us 7 of the most popular phones in 2018 - hardly a surprise that the world's largest manufacturer dominates the popularity chart. Somewhat less expected is that Xiaomi got 6. Last year , the number for the Korean manufacturer was the same, but the Chinese maker is up by one, showcasing that the global trend of Xiaomi catching up to the big guys is on every level. The most popular phone of 2018 was the Redmi Note 5 Pro and it completely smashed any competition. It was so popular, that the other two Xiaomis following couldn’t gather the same number of hits even if they combined their powers. Samsung eventually caught up with the Galaxy A8 (2018). The love for midrangers is...
, Download New Movie Apple gave everyone a glimpse at the future of the iPhone with last year's iPhone X, positioning it at the top of its lineup. With a “notch” and Face ID, the iPhone X was the iPhone of the future, and it came with a price tag that required you to pay EMIs well into the future. The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus were meant to be the more accessible offerings, continuing Apple's “business as usual” model of delivering solid, incremental updates at prices that were only marginally higher than their predecessors. With 2018, however, it seems the future is here, as Apple has gone all-in with the iPhone X ( Review ) design language across the entire lineup. For the second year in a row, we get not two but three new iPhone models, but this time, they all look pretty much the same — like the iPhone X, but at different sizes. Physically, the iPhone XR sits between the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max . It's priced in iPhone 8 Plus territory, which means Apple has elim...
, Download New Movie Infinix has been catering to the budget segment for quite some time now. The Infinix Note 5 offered good value for money when it was launched and even made its way to our list of the best budget phones of 2018 . The formula was simple: a power-efficient MediaTek Helio P23 processor, clean stock Android, and a beautiful crisp display. This gave it an edge over its competitors. The company has now used the same formula again, but thrown a stylus into the mix, creating the Infinix Note 5 Stylus. This is the first such product from the company, and one of very few smartphones in recent times to sport a stylus. Priced at Rs. 15,999, is the Infinix Note 5 Stylus worthy of that price tag? We review it to find out. Infinix Note 5 Stylus design Just like the Infinix Note 5 ( Review ), the Note 5 Stylus has a flashy paint job that caught our attention.
