Snapdragon 600 based Galaxy S4 coming in US,Canada & Sweden

-

The Samsung I9500 Galaxy S4 is the first smartphone with an octa-core processor or at least in some regions. As expected, the North American versions of the phone will use a Snapdragon chipset instead (a 600 to be precise).

So, both the US and Canada are getting quad Krait 300 cores and Adreno 320 GPU instead of Cortex-A15 / A7 CPU cores (four of each) and PowerVR SGX544MP3 GPU.

We expected that version to only be available in North America and the European version to use the Exynos 5 Octa chipset. The Swedish site for major European carrier Tele2, however, lists the Samsung Galaxy S4 on pre-order with the Snapdragon 600 chipset. The prices start at SEK 220 (about $34) per month on contract.

That’s a bit disappointing, but the Qualcomm-designed chipset should still offer stellar performance – better than the competing flagships, which use the same chip but at lower frequency.
Benchmarks point to great SunSpider performance – 822ms vs. 1124ms for the HTC One and 1336ms for the Sony Xperia Z. AnTuTu scores indicated a relatively modest increase in overall performance of about 30% for a score of 21, 089 vs. 22,678 for the HTC One and 20,794 for the Xperia Z.

It remains to be seen what kind of performance the Exynos 5 Octa will offer – AnTuTu’s publicly available benchmark doesn’t support the chipset and the scores the AnTuTu team posted from in-house testing can’t be compared to the old benchmarks.

Welcome Guide to Swift 5 Escaping String

-
Image
With the evolution of Swift, we often comes to create strings from raw text which can be a pain. Properly escaping any quotes or backslash characters in the raw text is an exercise in frustration. Swift 5, introduced with Xcode 10.2, introduces a new syntax to make it easier to work with raw text. Traditional Strings With String Literals To create a String from literal text, we use the common method of double quote (") as a starting and ending delimiter and the backslash (\) to escape special characters. For example, to create a String that preserves the double-quotes in this text: let title1 = "This is \"title\" here" // This is "title" here Swift 5 Custom String Escaping Swift 5 allows you to customize the delimiter and escape sequences. This is useful when working with raw text that might contain the delimiters or multiple escape sequence. Here we can pad the start, end and escape delimiters with one or more “ # ” characters.
