How to install the latest LXQt desktop in Ubuntu and Fedora

Image
  LXQt developed from popular components LXDE and Razor Qt LXQt is a free, open source, lightweight, and fast desktop environment for Linux and BSD distributions. It has several cool and well-known features borrowed from the LXDE desktop, such as low system resource utilization and sleek and neat interfaces. In addition, one of its distinctive features is the high level of customization to meet desktop usability requirements. The default desktop environment Knoppix, Lubuntu, and a few other lesser-known Linux distributions have had a default desktop environment.

Samsung announces the Galaxy Tab S7 FE if you want to save a little, and the Tab A7 Lite if you want to save a lot

  Samsung appears to be the only Android maker interested in premium tablets. By the way, it also had a lot of success with last year’s Galaxy S20 FE, offering flagship specs with cheaper materials and a few cut corners. So now, after many leaks, the Galaxy Tab S7 FE is official. Samsung has also announced the Tab A7 Lite for the less lucrative but much broader budget tablet market. Galaxy Tab S7 FE The Galaxy Tab S7 FE is a less expensive alternative to the Tab S7 +, especially with its impressive 12.4-inch screen size. It downsamples the resolution a bit to 2560×1600, but the bigger disappointment is that Samsung had to go with a cheaper LCD panel instead of the gorgeous AMOLED on the original. From the specs, it looks like it will be more premium than the previous Tab S6 Lite, but clearly falls short of the full-featured S7 or S7 +. Samsung hasn’t revealed which processor it uses, but “Octa-core 2.2x2GHz + 6×1.8GHz” matches the Cortex A77 / A55 Snapdragon 750G found in the lea

Which Samsung Galaxy Wireless Earbuds Should You Buy in 2021?

  People on Apple’s side can grab AirPods if they want tightly integrated audio, but the closest we have on Android is Samsung’s Galaxy Buds lineup. If you own a Samsung phone, these true wireless earbuds work like a dream come true and are still pretty good on third-party phones with the Galaxy Wearables app. Samsung even offers bonus money when you buy a new phone to make accessories like headphones cheaper … if you can decide which ones to buy. Over the past few years, Samsung has been launching new Galaxy Buds at every opportunity, and they are all still on sale today. So which ones should you get? Four models, similar characteristics Samsung’s current line of true wireless earbuds consists of the Galaxy Buds, Galaxy Buds +, Galaxy Buds Live, and Galaxy Buds Pro (top left to right). IN Galaxy buds are the oldest, launched just over two years ago. These are perfectly serviced earbuds that last about five hours on a single charge, and the wireless charging case has two more char

Samsung Galaxy Buds2 looks like the brainchild of Buds Pro and Buds +

  Samsung makes some of the best truly wireless earbuds, and the Galaxy Buds Pro is proof of that. However, if you still haven’t dropped a pair of Benjamins on a steam, you can wait as the next model from the South Korean company just broke the lid so we can have a look at it earlier. Samsung Galaxy Buds2 (SM-R177) was spotted in FCC filing (through All about Samsung ) and they look like a cross between the Galaxy Buds + and the Buds Pro (as you can see above). While the side facing the ear bears a resemblance to the Buds + (note the two gold contacts), the outer shell is rounded like the Buds Pro. The similarities don’t end there, the case is boxy too and you can safely expect it to have wireless charging support. Moreover, the documentation states that the Buds2 will use Bluetooth 5.2, but we’re not sure if this also means LE Audio that Android 12 will support. This is not the first time we’ve heard of upcoming buds. Earlier this year, we spotted them in a disassembled APK of

The latest updates for Samsung wearables hit the Galaxy Watch3 and Watch Active2.

  Your excuses for a sedentary lifestyle quickly fade away. The weather is improving, the days are getting longer, and if you’re lucky, you’ll soon be energized and ready to hit the road and conquer the world. Many of us put a little extra effort into getting out and active, hoping to lose some of this pandemic weight (and maybe some), and there is no better tool to help you with this than a good smartwatch. Samsung has rolled out fresh updates for several of its latest models this week. Yesterday Samsung started distributing firmware R840XXU1BUE3 for its Galaxy Watch3 as well as R820XXU1DUE3 for Watch Active2 … None of these updates are particularly serious, and both watches use the same version of Tizen 5.5.0.2. What we’re really hearing about is a few small changes to iconography, both for the inactive warning icon and for the automatic detection of walking / running glyphs. And each of these models should receive regular stability improvements. But given that this is the tota

Five of the most beautiful cases for the Galaxy S21, S21 + and S21 Ultra

Samsung’s top three Galaxy S21 phones are already several months old and seem to be huge success. We’ve even gone so far as to say that the S21 is a 2021 smartphone that should outperform (for now), while the S21 Ultra is just a very good phone. Like any great device, the S21 in your hands deserves quality protection. These are our five favorite cases for the Galaxy S21, S21 +, and S21 Ultra. Best Custom Case: dbrand Grip (Recommended) Dbrand’s Grip is still an AP favorite with dozens of ways to make your phone say “this is my phone” without, say, unfortunate accident at the smelting … We have an iconic (literally) limited edition Skin icons on our purple Galaxy S21 here and it’s a subtle matte black color. But dbrand has a variety of options to suit all tastes, and you can even order a separately protected Grip case if you want. We’re just saying: This case looks best with a skin and it’s kind of a brandy thing. Best durable, but not overly large case: Otterbox Symmetry If

Come for the price, stay for updates

  Samsung’s A series phones have become famous: they are good, reasonably priced devices aimed at people who might not care what processor their phone has, or even know what RAM is. But as the gap between mid-range and flagship tiers shrinks, less expensive options like Galaxy A52 keep getting better and better – you don’t have to give up almost as much to save money as you used to. In fact, the A52 is so durable that I wouldn’t mind using it all the time – at least if it weren’t for a couple of sore spots. Design, fittings, what’s in the box In my opinion, the A52 is a revelation for Samsung’s mid-range. Last year’s A51 was a decent phone, but its rainbow pattern and glossy plastic finish really screamed. budget. In contrast, the A52 is a smooth, monolithic plastic plate with a pleasant eggshell. Internationally, it’s available in several trendy pastel colors, but here in the US we’re sticking with black for now ( Stunning Black, officially). It’s a shame we’re missing out on
