EA to reportedly acquire Codemasters for £725 million: Here’s what you should know
In order to help gamers play a bunch of new games, Electronic Arts (EA), a global leader in digital interactive entertainment, has reached a £725 million takeover of Codemasters, a leading UK publisher of racing games on Console, PC and Mobile for over 30 years.
The deal overshadowed a previous transaction that was agreed between competitor publisher Take-Two Interactive and Codemasters. According to Sky News, the firm had agreed to buy Codemasters for £726 million (which translated to INR 71678.71 million) only last month.
A report by Reuters quoted the British firm as saying, “The Codemasters Board has considered various aspects of the EA Offer and considers the EA Offer to represent a superior offer for Codemasters’ shareholders as compared with the Take-Two Offer.” If rumours are to be believed a source from gaming industry has revealed that EA was working with bankers at UBS on its offer.
Earlier, EA had added that games bring joy to billions of people, and are a very meaningful part of the player’s lives. With this amazing opportunity, EA also recognises the ability to have a positive impact on the world. It takes this responsibility seriously, living our values in the service of the players and the communities every day.
In September, EA had also introduced an early look at the all-new EA Desktop app, its built-from-scratch PC platform for EA players, games, and content. It brings you a faster experience, fewer clicks to jump back into your favourite games, and powerful Playtime Controls to help you keep tabs on how much time you and your family spend playing. Moreover, EA is making it faster and easier to find and install new content, whether you’re buying games or playing through your EA Play membership. The gaming company is also rolling out new benefits to give our EA Play and EA Play Pro members even more from the games they love. And it all comes in the sleek dark-mode interface the gamers have been asking for.
From the very start, the gamers have put the players at the forefront of this project, and they plan to keep it that way. If the gamer is an Origin player, their friend’s list and progress on eligible games will carry over. And rest assured that they can still access all of the content on Origin so you can continue from where one could play.

In order to create a stunning viewing experience on the next-generation extra-large TV screen, Samsung has unveiled the first 110 inch Micro LED in Korea. The Samsung Micro LED has an even wider color palette and improved brightness values owing to the TV’s self-illuminating and tiny diodes that will go on sale worldwide in the first quarter of 2021.
With the new 110 inch Micro LED, Samsung is now offering the innovative screen technology for the first time in the form of a classic TV. Unlike its modular counterpart, no professional help is needed to install and calibrate the device. After power on, the built-in video and audio features are available as well as other smart features immediately after power on.
With the launch of the 110 inch Micro LED, Samsung is creating a stunning viewing experience on the next-generation extra-large TV screen.
“With users expecting more features and features from their TV than ever before, we’re excited to be able to do just that with Samsung 110-inch Micro LED. The Samsung Micro LED will redefine the world of premium Home TVs,” said Jonghee Han, president of the Visual Display Business at Samsung Electronics.
Samsung 110-inch Micro LED generates brightness and colors within their own pixel structures. The resulting images represent 100 percent of the DCI and Adobe RGB color space and provide an extended color space at the level of high-end mirror reflex cameras (DSLR). Users benefit from the display’s 4K resolution with eight million pixels, stunning colors, and precise brightness values.
Furthermore, the brand new micro-processor of Samsung 110 inch Micro LED is also equipped with artificial intelligence to deliver high-resolution 4K HDR content with bright, vivid and highly realistic image quality, which in turn is optimized for different scenes.
Additionally, the underlying technology of Samsung 110 inch Micro LED ensures that image quality remains at a high level in the long term. The integrated LEDs are made of inorganic materials, which make them not only durable, but also very durable. The average lifespan of such a diode is up to 100,000 hours, or more than a decade.
According to Samsung, “The commercial production of a 110 inch micro LED screen for private use was not within the realm of possibility. For this reason, Samsung has done even more research and, in addition to state-of-the-art construction technology for attaching the TV to the wall, has also established a manufacturing process inspired by the semiconductor business, which greatly facilitates the production, transport and installation of the technology. Based on this development, Samsung will have the option of producing even smaller light-emitting diodes that offer the user a diverse micro LED experience.”
Samsung has optimized its Smart TV features and adapted them to the features of Samsung 110 inch Micro LED. For example, users can now use the Multi View feature to track up to four different content simultaneously on 55-inch partial screens. If necessary, users can connect multiple external compatible devices to track messages, for example, while a movie is running in the image-side-image function. The same applies to sports that are broadcast at the same time or video games, for which you can watch a tutorial on YouTube in parallel. The combinations are almost limitless and are always reproduced in high-resolution quality.

As per the listing, the Nokia PureBook X14 might also include a 14-inch Full HD resolution display offering 1920 x 1080 pixels of resolution with Dolby Vision support. Moreover, the bezels on the sides are 4.8 millimetres thin with up to 178-degree viewing angle. The Nokia laptop is suggested to come with a magnesium-aluminium alloy body with a matte black finish weighing 1.1 kilograms.
The PureBook is also said to feature an HD IR Webcam that supports Windows Hello features to unlock the laptop and a keyboard offering 1.4 millimetres key travel with backlight support. In addition to this, the notebook might also include a 46.7 WHr battery claiming to last up to 8 hours on a single charge.
The listing also reveals to offer the Nokia PureBook X14 with a price tag of Rs 90,000 however this is not the actual pricing and the company might reveal confirmed pricing at a later date when the official launch of the device happens.
Like we said earlier multiple Nokia laptops were spotted on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) website indicating imminent launch which includes NKi510UL82S, NKi510UL85S, NKi510UL165S, NKi510UL810S, NKi510UL1610S, NKi310UL41S, NKi310UL42S, NKi310UL82S and NKi310UL85S.
However, these SKUs in the BIS Listing are likely to be other models of the Nokia laptop series that might or might not launch along with Nokia PureBook. But the teased model is expected to launch by the end of this month.

Samsung recently introduced its hot-off-the-press F-series in India. Samsung Galaxy F41 is the company’s first in this series. We have been using this phone for quite some time and to be honest, we found subtle differences between the already dominant M-series by Samsung, which some might think are not enough. This smartphone has an octa-core Exynos 9611 SoC, 6,000mAh battery, waterdrop-style design display and triple rear camera set up. Let’s find out in our extensive Samsung Galaxy F41 review to know what’s new, how good it is from other devices and should you buy it or not.
The Samsung Galaxy F41 also shares some attributes with the company’s M-series smartphones such as and L-design triple cameras housed inside a rectangular module with an LED flash. Also, there is a rear fingerprint sensor while the front has an Infinity U design notch display. On the left side of the frame, a SIM tray is given while the right side has the volume rocker and the power on/off button.
At the bottom, Samsung Galaxy F41 has a 3.5mm audio jack, USB Type-C port, mic and speaker grille. The texture of the phone appears to be smooth as it is made up of a combination of both plastics as well as glass. However, we did not dislike the phone but we would have expected the form factor to be more fresh as it this a new line-up.
Samsung Galaxy F41 features a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED Infinity-U display. It offers 420 nits of peak brightness making it ideal for both outdoor and indoor usage. It has narrow bezels on the sides that ensure a better viewing experience. The screen is bright and well lit. Yes, it was legible while we basked in the sun with it. The device comes with a standard 60Hz refresh rate. This is a bit off-putting as many of the devices in this range offer higher refresh rate panels. A better refresh panel could have been an added advantage for Samsung Galaxy F41. Nevertheless, the big display is ideal for today’s users who spend hours getting work done, studying, watching videos or simply play games on it.
We spent a good amount of time watching videos and browsing social media and no doubt we had a delightful time with this phone.
The fingerprint sensor is really fast to respond and accurately registered our fingerprint expression to unlock the device. Besides this, the phone also includes face unlock but really liked the earlier one more accurate and reasonably fast than the later one. The audio experience on the phone is also quite decent as it has a bottom-firing loudspeaker, which is clear and loud. It should be noted that the retail box does not ship earphones so you have to get them separately, for an additional charge.
In case you are a heavy gamer then this phone is not the best option and you can go for a better device specialised for heavy gaming. Over that, the device heats up slightly if you prolong your gaming session.
When it comes to the battery. the Samsung Galaxy F41 comes with a massive 6,000mah battery. It supports 15-watt fast charging so that you don’t have to remain connected to a power outlet for long. The battery is good enough to last for more than a day, even two if you are an average user. If you are a power user then the battery will easily last you a full day. Using the supplied fast charger, the device gets fully charged from zero to 100 percent in three hours.
On the software front, the Samsung Galaxy F41 runs Android 10 with One UI Core on top, which offers smooth switching between apps and performs all the multitasking jobs perfectly. We encountered some lag but those can be ignored. The UI is smooth but comes with some amount of bloatware. Yes, the device has some already pre-loaded apps such as Dailyhunt, MX TakTak, Candy Crush Saga, Moj app, Dhani, Zee5, Chingari, Josh and more. All of them, thankfully, can be removed.
In terms of photography, the device features a triple rear camera setup that includes a 64-megapixel primary sensor. Further assisted by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens with a field of view of 123 degrees and a 5-megapixel sensor with live focus support. The camera setup has 4K video recording support as well. On the front, this has a 32-megapixel selfie camera with live focus support.
The primary sensor of the device captures stunning photos making your special moments even more special. The 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens captures amazing details in ultra-wide mode with getting more area covered into a single photo. While the latter focuses on what matters the most, getting you a perfect portrait image.
Apart from the rear camera, the Samsung Galaxy F41 has a 32-megapixel sensor on the front for perfect selfies. The camera app supports a host of powerful features. While the single take option makes it easier to capture a single moment in a number of ways, there are other useful modes on the native camera app as well for the more of a power user.
Apart from capturing images, the Samsung Galaxy F41 smartphone can also record 4K videos at 30fps, HD slow-motion video can be recorded at 240fps with up to 8x digital zoom. The overall quality of the cameras on the phone are decent for its class and we quite enjoyed shooting with it.

Design and Display
Right of the bat, Samsung Galaxy F41 comes with a similar form factor we have already seen on some of the Samsung devices in the M and A-series. It has a unibody plastic design with glossy dual-tone finishes. We have got our hands on the Fusion Blue variant, but there are two more options available in the form of Fusion Green and Fusion Black. The device is not at all heavy, even though it houses a massive 6,000mAh battery. Less weight is most likely because of the plastic body.
The Samsung Galaxy F41 also shares some attributes with the company’s M-series smartphones such as and L-design triple cameras housed inside a rectangular module with an LED flash. Also, there is a rear fingerprint sensor while the front has an Infinity U design notch display. On the left side of the frame, a SIM tray is given while the right side has the volume rocker and the power on/off button.

It should be noted that the retail box does not ship earphones so you have to get them separately, for an additional charge.
Performance and Camera
Samsung Galaxy F41 is powered by a year-old Exynos 9611 SoC coupled with 6GB of LPDDR4x RAM with up to 128GB of internal storage, which can be expanded by up to 512GB using a microSD card. However, it is available in one more storage option of 64GB, but for our review, we are working with the 128GB storage version. The device carries most of the daily tasks easily. While playing Call of Duty on this device we came across a bit of lag, nevertheless overall gameplay and graphics were good. This could have been better if Samsung used a current Chipset.
In case you are a heavy gamer then this phone is not the best option and you can go for a better device specialised for heavy gaming. Over that, the device heats up slightly if you prolong your gaming session.
When it comes to the battery. the Samsung Galaxy F41 comes with a massive 6,000mah battery. It supports 15-watt fast charging so that you don’t have to remain connected to a power outlet for long.

Verdict
The Samsung Galaxy F41 is a decent mid-range device. Those looking for a device for gaming purposes should look elsewhere. However, if you are looking for a superb AMOLED display, a long-lasting battery and cameras that deliver Instagram worthy images to be shared unfiltered, then your search ends here. So, at a starting price of Rs 15,499, Samsung Galaxy F41 is a great buy for photo lovers and people who want a workhorse that will not power down easily.

Microsoft rolls out Azure Hybrid Benefit for Linux in India
Microsoft has rolled out the general availability of its Azure Hybrid Benefit solution for Linux customers across India. It enables customers seamlessly migrate on-premises Windows Server and SQL Server licenses, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) virtual machines (VMs) to Microsoft Azure.
The launch of Microsoft Azure Hybrid Benefit for Linux in India enables significant reduction in cost of running workloads on-the-cloud by converting existing PAYG (pay-as-you-go) virtual machines (VMs) to bring-your-own-subscription (BYOS) billing.
According to Microsoft, “In the new normal, it is challenging for businesses to adjust their strategies to maintain productive operations and processes. Businesses face challenges in migrating workload to public cloud due to regulatory and data sovereignty related issues. This is common in highly regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare, and government. Also, some workloads, especially those related to edge, require low latency.”
Businesses can achieve lowest cost of ownership by combining reservations savings and extended security updates through Azure Hybrid Benefit. Organizations can also effectively plan their cloud roadmap by optimizing Azure environment as per their workload for scale, security, governance, networking, and identity.
Azure Hybrid Benefit offers several capabilities that are unique to Microsoft Azure. It is applicable to all Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and SUSE Enterprise Server pay-as-you-go images available in the Azure Marketplace or Azure Portal. Furthermore, it saves time with seamless post-deployment conversions as there’s no need for production redeployment. Businesses can simply convert pay-as-you-go images used during proof of concept testing to bring-your-own-subscription billing.
In addition to this, Azure Hybrid Benefit lowers ongoing operational costs with automatic image maintenance, updates, and patches. Microsoft maintains the converted RHEL and SLES images for customers. Organizations can save up to 85 percent compared to standard pay-as-you-go rates. It enables user interface integration with Azure command line interface (CLI), providing the same UI as other Azure virtual machines, as well as scalable batch conversions.
Moreover, businesses get co-located technical support from Azure, Red Hat, and SUSE with just one ticket. The solution combined with recently announced Red Hat and SUSE support for Azure shares disks to lift-and-shift failover clusters and parallel file systems—like Global File System. It is fully compatible with Azure Arc, providing end-to-end hybrid cloud operations management for Windows, RHEL, and SLES servers in one solution.
Using Azure Hybrid Benefit, Microsoft is allowing organizations bring existing on-premises Windows Server and SQL Server licenses with active Software Assurance or subscriptions to Azure. Azure Hybrid Benefit is applicable to SQL on Azure and Azure Dedicated Host. Moreover, it provides 180 days of dual-use rights so businesses can maintain on-premises operation while migrating to Azure.
