Phones / 10 Best Affordable Gaming Android Phones by SOCCERBLAST: 9:47am On May 09, 2020
Gamers, how are you doing?

Today, I will answering your question of "What are the best phones for an unlimited gaming experience?"

Four things you need to know about qualities that influences a phone and makes it favourite for a seamless gaming experience are:

1. Screen Size: The bigger the screen, the most fascinating it's gaming experience. The best gaming phones have screen aspect ratio of at least 6.1 inches.

2. RAM Capacity: Random Access Memory. RAM talks about the memory holding ability while you are playing your game. Let's say, you're eating rice, the capacity of rice your mouth can hold at any time is your RAM...Lol.

One thing to notice about phones with little RAM is that your game becomes slow, it will look like you're watching a slow motion movie..lol.. The best gaming phones have usually have a RAM starting from 3gb.

3. ROM: Read Only Memory. ROM indicates the memory capacity of the phone or what a layman will call internal memory. It's an important aspect to consider because most games have large files ranging above 1gb. The best gaming phones have ROM starting from 32gb, though you can buy memory card to increase the memory capacity of your phone anytime.

4. Battery Capacity: You can't deny the fact that games consume battery a lot; the animation, the sound effects, the motion all depend on power to keep you entertained. It is not an ideal gaming phone if it does not have a battery capacity of at least 4000mAh.

But, you are covered, because we have reviewed and recommended about 10 phones that will give that exciting, ecstatic gaming experience you have been dreaming of. Make your choice!

1. Techno Camon 12

Computers / 10 Essential Things To Consider When Buying A New Laptop by SOCCERBLAST: 10:44am On May 04, 2020
I know you're excited right now, you are about to get a new laptop, maybe for your academics, work or just for fun. I guarantee you I'm excited for you too.
But before you get carried way by the euphoria of getting a new laptop, it is very imperative we take you through what you should check out so you don't end up purchasing what you will regret. I'll be very detailed as possible.
Here are 10 top things you should consider before and when buying a new laptop.

1. Size
When it comes to laptops, size matters.
Depending on what you plan to be doing with your next laptop, you’ll want to make sure you pick the size that’s the right fit for you. Size isn’t like the RAM or ROM of a laptop, you can’t upgrade it later. You’re locked into whatever you select up-front, so choose wisely.
Laptops sizes tend to start at 11.6-inches and go all the way up to 17.3 inches. Most brands and OEMS like HP, Dell, ASUS and Acer tend to offer three display sizes - 13.3-inch, 15.6-inch and 17.3-inches. However, some vendors do sell laptops that fall outside these sizes including 11.6-inches, 12.5-inches and 14-inches.
Obviously, if portability is your priority, you’ll want to go for a smaller sized Windows laptop. They tend to be thinner and lighter than their larger counterparts. Look for laptops that have a screen that is either 12.5-inches or 13.3-inches in size, and a weight between 1kg and 1.5kgs.
However, keep in mind that smaller-sized 13.3-inch machines often don’t support the same high-end Intel Core i7 CPUs or discrete graphics cards you’ll be able to find in their 15.6-inch counterparts. Most of the time, they’ll also feature a less-robust selection of ports. If the kind of work you intend to be using your new laptop for requires a larger display or standalone graphics power, you’ll probably need to look at a larger size.
The most important thing to consider here when looking for the best laptop you can buy is that you think about what you’re going to need that laptop to do. It’s rarely ever a case of one size fits all. Some users need something lighter and more portable. Other users need discrete graphics for things like video editing or running high end games. If you need a PC with an optical drive or long battery life, you’ll almost certainly have to look for something larger.

SEE ALL HERE>>>>https://www.ayobaexpress.com/2020/05/10-essential-things-to-consider-when.html

Next up, be sure to look at the resolution on any laptop you’re thinking of buying. A 1920x1080-pixel resolution (Full HD) should be considered if you want plenty of space to line up windows and keep things in view.
Select modern laptops also now offer 4K resolutions. However, these high-end display panels are generally a costly add-on to an already-expensive product. They're only really going to be worth it for those who really need them, like content creation professionals.

Family / 12 Things Every Expectant Mother Should Buy by SOCCERBLAST: 10:20am On May 04, 2020
Becoming a Parent is the dream of any married couple, the sound of a new baby brings fulfilment and joy in every home. So now, you're pregnant and in few months or weeks, you will becoming your little Angel. Here are essentials you should consider buying to prepare for our new king.
1. Diapers
Your new baby will defecate a lot. And then some more. So whether you’re going down the disposable route or planning to use cloth, make sure you have a plentiful supply of diapers. Running out of them at 4 a.m. or when you’re on a long journey is the last time you want to experience, believe me. Also, it’s a good idea to stock up on various sizes — diapers that are way too small just don’t do the job.

2. Onesies for Kiddies
Teeny-tiny baby mittens for teeny-tiny baby hands are super cute, but they sometimes fall off and regularly get eaten up by the washing machine, à la the mysterious disappearing sock. Luckily, some genius person behind the scenes at Baby Products HQ had the idea of combining mittens with a sleep suit, which is the only thing you’ll want your tot to wear for the first few weeks anyway. The fold-over mittens stop them scratching at their cheeks with those minuscule but surprisingly sharp nails. Make sure you have a lot of this in stock, you don't want to run out of options.

Sports / TRANSFER News:manchester United Offers £9million A Year Offer For Adrien Rabiot by SOCCERBLAST: 9:42pm On Jun 07, 2019
Adrien Rabiot has been offered a huge £170,000-a-week contract to join Manchester United but would rather move to close rivals Liverpool, according to reports.

The Frenchman is set to leave Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer this summer after falling out with the club's hierarchy and is keen on a move to the Premier League.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to add the France international as part of his rebuilding plans, and the club have tabled a deal worth around £9million a year with a £4.5m signing-on.

While Rabiot is tempted by the size of the deal, he is a huge admirer of Steven Gerrard and would prefer to join the newly-crowned Champions League winners.

He was also the subject of interest from Tottenham, Barcelona and Juventus, but excessive wage demands prevented a move for him in January.

In all, the youth product has made 224 appearances and scored 24 goals for his hometown club since his debut in 2012.

Sports / Man Utd Under Mourinho Is A Total Trash--man Utd Legend by SOCCERBLAST: 8:05pm On Aug 21, 2018
A 3-2 defeat to Brighton at the weekend has left the Red Devils on the brink of crisis, and the ex-midfielder pulled no punches in his criticism

Former Manchester United star Paul Ince has slammed the club, calling them a "laughing stock" and a "total mess" after suffering defeat at the hands of Brighton.
A disastrous first-half performance on the south coast laid the foundations for a shock win for the Seagulls, who prevailed 3-2 on Sunday .

Jose Mourinho's men were comprehensively outplayed in the first 45 minutes, going 3-1 down before Paul Pogba gave the scoreline a veneer of respectability with a 90th minute penalty.

Ince turned his eye on what he called a "shambles from top to bottom" at Old Trafford, and suggested that United were the butt of their rivals' jokes this season.
"Other clubs and fans are having a field day at the minute, seeing what is happening at Manchester United. They’re becoming a laughing stock, and falling behind," the former midfielder wrote for Paddy Power .

"They finished second last season, and will probably make the top four this year, but is that what they should be striving for? No.
"Realistically, their goal should be to win the Premier League. But they just cannot compete with Manchester City or Liverpool at the minute.
"If they lose against Tottenham on Monday, for example, they could find themselves six points behind City with three games gone already."

Mourinho has spoken publicly of his frustration at not landing his transfer targets this summer , but according to Ince he is also to blame for United's current malaise.

Politics / Former UN Chief,kofi Annan TAKES A Bow At 80 by SOCCERBLAST: 12:47pm On Aug 18, 2018
Kofi Annan, the first black African to become UN secretary-general, has died aged 80 in Switzerland, his aides say.

He "passed away peacefully on Saturday after a short illness", the foundation named after him said on Saturday.

Mr Annan served two terms as UN chief from 1997 to 2006, and was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for humanitarian work for his efforts.
He later served as the UN special envoy for Syria, leading efforts to find a peaceful solution to the conflict.

In a statement announcing his death, the Kofi Annan Foundation described him as a "global statesman and deeply committed internationalist who fought throughout his life for a fairer and more peaceful world".
"Wherever there was suffering or need, he reached out and touched many people with his deep compassion and empathy. He selflessly placed others first, radiating genuine kindness, warmth and brilliance in all he did."

The diplomat, who was originally from Ghana, died in hospital in the Swiss city of Bern. He had been living near Geneva for several years before his death.
He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2001 for helping to revitalise the international body, during a period that coincided with the Iraq War and the HIV/Aids pandemic.

Sports / 15 Soccer Stars That Went From Abject Poverty To Untold Riches by SOCCERBLAST: 4:33pm On May 04, 2018
15. ADRIANO
Adriano who was once one of world football’s most brilliant strikers, before inconsistency and personal troubles brought his career to its knees. Before Adriano ever kicked a ball for the likes of Parma and Inter, he was a young boy stuck in poverty stricken Rio de Janeiro favela Vila Cruzeiro, but dreaming of the high life and the chance to buy his mother a mansion. Adriano indeed worked his way out of Vila Cruzeira – where drug traffickers notoriously murdered a TV Globo reporter, Tim Lopes, in 2002 – signing with Flamengo and quickly being beckoned to Italy before his 20th birthday.

14. SAMUEL ETO
The son of an accountant, Samuel Eto’o enjoyed a greater degree of privilege than many others in his native Cameroon, yet there remains no photographic record of his childhood. Eto’o’s family was unable to pay for a camera, and as such his christening as a footballer on the streets of Douala remains a matter of the striker’s own depiction. It didn’t take long for Eto’o to catch the eye with natural talent that saw him earn
comparisons to the legendary Roger Milla. Eto’o’s father was shocked when his son came home one day to proudly announce that he had been offered in the region of $30 per day to represent a local club – the elder Eto’o hadn’t realized football could be a lucrative pursuit. Little did he know that the Sampdoria forward would one day sign a world record $26 million per year contract at Anzhi Makhachkala.

13.DANTE
Tight spaces and unconventional surfaces are often credited for the development of future Brazilian stars, and Dante was no different from his peers. As a youth, Dante spent his time with a ball at his feet in the car park of the supermarket where his mother worked as a cashier. Despite his persistence growing up in the Federacao neighborhood of Salvador, Dante’s appeals for a chance with a Sao Paulo or Rio de Janeiro based club fell on deaf ears. Instead, his opportunity would arrive in the form of Matsubara – located over 1,000 miles from his home in Salvador. When Dante discovered nobody had the means to buy him a bus ticket, he took matters into his own hands – selling his video games to purchase a one-way pass to chase down his ambitions far from home.

12. DANI ALVES
For Dani Alves, his destiny was written in the stars. Or on the walls of his father’s home. Alves’ brothers say that as a six-year-old the Barcelona star would go from wall to wall in the house signing his name, preparing for the day scores of admirers would outstretch their hands looking for his autograph. It would come, but only after hard work had been done. Alves rose from his cement bed before dawn each day at a tender age to assist his father picking melons and farming unforgiving fields in Bahia, also picking up work as a waiter or trader when possible. His father was able to start a club where Alves truly got his start in organized football, starting out as a winger before being moved to his now-customary right-back position. Once a distant dream, the confines of the Camp Nou would become a reality down the years.

Sports / Check Out : 10 Most Decorated Football Stars In The Football History by SOCCERBLAST: 11:09pm On May 02, 2018
1. Ryan Giggs leads the pack with 34 trophies for Manchester United. It includes an astounding 13 Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups and nine Community Shields in England. He has also won two Champions League titles and a Club World Cup in a career that spanned an incredible 24 seasons. The Welsh legend scored in almost every Premier League season except his final season after which he retired at the age of 40.

Although 31-year-old Iniesta may not win another 10 club trophies before he retires, Messi (still only 28) has a huge opportunity to top the list in the future. The Argentine is in the form of his life and can easily play top level football for another five to six years at least.

Ryan Giggs (L) has won 34 club trophies while Paul Scholes and Edwin van der Sar (R) have 25 each
Second on the list is Vitor Baia, who has played for Barcelona, but also won trophies with Porto. The Portuguese goalkeeper won 31 trophies in his career (26 with Porto and 5 with Barcelona) – the highlight being the Champions League triumph in 2004. He won 11 Portuguese league titles and one La Liga title in a 21-year career.

2.Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish is tied in second place with Baia. His 31 trophies include six league titles with Liverpool and four with Celtic. He has also won the Champions League three times with the Merseyside club. Combining his trophies won as a manager takes him closer to 50 trophies in his career.

4. ALFREDO DI STEFANO
The greatest player to never grace the World Cup, yet many still consider him to be the greatest of all time. In any such discussion, Di Stefano's name should certainly be up there with the likes of Puskas, Beckenbauer, Pele, Maradona and Messi. He is almost certainly the most complete player in the history of the game. Renowned for coming deep to get the ball before taking people on or playing a wicked pass, Di Stefano was the most vital cog of the legendary Real Madrid team of the 1950s.

Unfortunately, even George Best could not lead Northern Ireland to the World Cup finals. At his peak he was as good as anyone, but by the time his country qualified for the finals in 1982, the 36-year-old was past his prime.

Successful teams generally have a world class player who screens his defense. The likes of Roy Keane, Patrick Vieira and Edgar Davids excelled in the position in their heyday. Here is a look at ten of the best defensive midfielders currently in the game.

10. Sergio Busquets (Spain & Barcelona)

A first-choice for club and country, Busquets' predominant role is to maintain his position behind Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta, dispossess the opposition and pass the ball to his more creative teammates. A penchant for overreacting to fouls can infuriate the opposition, but this does not diminish his overall contribution. A product of the club’s La Masia youth academy and one of the best holding midfielders in the world, Busquets is the master of the simple pass.

FIFA allows referees to wear jerseys among the five colors which are black, red, yellow, green and blue, but referees are required to wear black shorts, black socks during any game.
