Nokia Lumia 930 reviews!!!

Nokia has announced a new flagship device: The Lumia 930

#NokiaLumia930

Microsoft best device supported almost all features which are comparable to Apple and Samsung phones.

The device has a 5-inch screen with full HD, a 2.2 Ghz quad-core processor, 2GB RAM, 16 GB storage space and a 20 megapixel camera.The devices runs the Windows Phone 8.1 OS, which was also released at the BUILD conference.




Screen Resolution: Lumia 925 and Lumia’s 1020 had 4.5-inch screens, when competitors like Samsung with Galaxy S4 and Sony’s Xperia Z1 had 5-inch screens. Again the Lumia 1520 phablet was the first Nokia Lumia device with the full HD screen. As far as other flagships were concerned, the HD screen resolution was a massive let down when competitors had better screens to offer.This has been fixed with the Lumia 930.

Processor: Nokia 930 is equipped with Snapdragon 2.2 GHz quad-core processor, 2GB RAM and 32 GB stoarge space which is best for customers who wanted something good comparison between Apple A7 and Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphones.the Lumia 930 might just seem appealing thanks to the better specs.



Camera: There’s no overlooking the fact that when it comes to camera specifications, Nokia has kept the flag flying high.The Lumia 930 has a 20 megapixel camera with Optical image stabilization  and a Carl -Zeiss lens.  It has more megapixels than the S5, the iPhone 5s and is a little shy of the latest Xperia Z2.It has some awesome and great features for video recording and four microphones, directional recording, which
enhances clarity of sound.


Battery:  Lumia 930 has a 2420 mAh battery with built-in wireless charging. The maximum talk time Nokia is promising on 2G is 11.5 hours, with 15.5 hours on 3G. For users who are constantly running out of battery, the Lumia 930 might seem like a great option.

Conclusion: The Lumia 930 managed to tick off the all right boxes of what a premium smartphone should have. A strong processor, a bigger and sharper screen, along with a 20 megapixel camera. Of course the success will also depend on the pricing (at least in India) and the response that Windows Phone 8.1 gets from app developers.

Nandan Nilekani- one among the few zems of INDIA, a shrewd businessman and futurist.


#Nandan Nilekani

Nandan Nilekani is the former Chairman of the Unique Identification Authority of India. The agency's mandate is to provide the Aadhaar number, which is a unique identity number, to every resident in India. The Aadhaar number is already enabling residents across the country to access some state and central benefits directly and more easily.


Nandan was born in Bangalore. His family hails from Sirsi, Karnataka, and their story is a middle-class one. Nandan's father was a textile manager, and gave his son the best education he could afford. Thanks to this, Nandan was able to get admission into the Indian Institute of Technology in Bombay, where he received his Bachelor's in electrical engineering.


Nandan's father emphasized the importance of public service and embracing a larger cause. Throughout Nandan's career, these principles – of hard work, and the need to create opportunity for everyone – have informed his choices, and guided his decisions.


After his degree, Nandan became a co-founder of Infosys Technologies. Nandan worked for Infosys for twenty-eight years, and in this time, the company created jobs across Karnataka and India. He gave up his role as Infosys co-Chairman in 2009 to take up the government position at the UIDAI, at the invitation of the Prime Minister.

In 1999, Nandan also helped develop a broader initiative, the Bangalore Agenda Task Force. The BATF worked with public, private and NGO agencies to help resolve Bangalore's infrastructure and governance challenges.

As philanthropists, Nandan and his wife Rohini have given away a part of their wealth to various causes. The Nilekanis have invested in education and healthcare. Over the years they have also funded non-profit efforts in water infrastructure, micro-credit, and social research

Nandan is the president of the governing body of NCAER, the National Council of Applied Economic Research, India's oldest and premier independent economic research institute. He is also a member of the board of governors of the Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations (ICRIER).

Nandan was named the Corporate Citizen of the Year at the Asia Business Leaders Award (2004) organized by CNBC. In 2005 he received the prestigious Joseph Schumpeter prize for innovative services in economy, economic sciences and politics.

In 2006, Nandan received the Padma Bhushan. Time magazine listed him as one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2006 and 2009.

Cisco has developed new resilient switch which can work under water or in sandstorms


The Cisco Industrial Ethernet 2000 IP67 Series switches are a line of switches that integrate Cisco’s Leadership in Ethernet switching technology with a highly ruggedized form factor that can be used in extremely harsh environments.

All new cisco switches has designed in such a way that these switches in operate in harsh resilient conditions. With the help of these switches the working in a complex environment is now easy stuff.

We can manage these switches under water labs, outdoor dusty environment conditions. Let us say, if robots are connected under water and these robots wanted to connected to external environment, then with the help of Cisco 2000 IP67 switch we can install IP phones, wireless adapters, etc can manage those robots from outside very efficiently.

Also, lets say a  loader trunk is standing at a site, to keep it standing it is very costly affair.But if we install IP67 switches in those trunks, management of those trunk through wireless is very easy and not much a costly affair. 

With help of Cisco Inter of things and Internet of Everything we would now able to do wonders.

Few of the glimpses of those technologies switches, published by cisco itself is as under:


The IE 2000 IP67 series provides customers with ease of use, secure access and industry leading convergence protocols such as Cisco’s Resilient Ethernet Protocol (REP). Multiple industries such as automotive, oil and gas, mining, transportation and energy companies are increasingly requiring IP based networks in their production areas.
Cisco’s IE2000 IP67 switches comply with many standardized industry specifications that were created to fill business and technical requirements for safety, stability, electromagnetic emissions etc.. This newest addition to the IE2000 family brings the capability to deliver high performance and reliability for data, video, voice in extremely severe locations to enable business continuity.
These new switches are classified as IP67 under the IP Code (Ingress Protection Rating) which classifies and rates the degree of protection provided against intrusion. Therefore these switches are protected from the ingress of any kind dust (defined by the first number: “6”) as well as protected from water immersion in water under defined conditions of pressure and time (up to 1 m of submersion and up to 30 mins, defined by the second number: “7”).
