0

The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is a flagship smartphone from the South Korean electronics giant Samsung. It has been recently released and has been generating a lot of buzz for its impressive battery life.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and iPhone 14 pro max battery comparison

One of the standout features of the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is its battery life. The device is equipped with a 4,855mAh battery that can last for an incredibly long time. In fact, the battery life is almost as long as the strongest iPhone 14 Pro Max, which is known for its exceptional battery life.

It is powered with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SM8550-AC will power the Galaxy S23 series. The processor supports 8GB or 12GB of RAM as well as 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage. Since the battery’s capacity is listed as 4,855mAh.

Since Samsung makes its own internal flash storage chips and RAM, it can use less gigabytes in its smartphones. At least for the S23+ and Ultra models, Samsung’s Galaxy S23 series finally ends the pattern of 128GB beginning storage.

The Ultra adopts a more boxy design, while the normal S23 and the S23+ lose the plateau for the camera on the rear and take on the distinct protruding lenses of the Ultra.

This long battery life is due to the combination of the 5000mAh battery and the energy-efficient processor used in the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. The device also supports fast charging and can be charged from 0% to 50% in just 30 minutes.

It’s all on your preference which smartphone you want as both of them are best at their own perspective.

Jesse Marsch sacked by Leeds United after under a year in charge

0

Jesse Marsch has been sacked as the head coach of Leeds United, following seven games without a win for the club. The 1-0 defeat against relegation-battling Nottingham Forest proved to be the last straw, and the American has been relieved of his duties. 

Marsch spent less than a year in charge of the club, and was able to keep them in the Premier League last season. But things weren’t panning out well for the man who replaced Marcelo Bielsa, and he has now joined the list of former managers too. 

Jesse Marsch sacked by Leeds United after seven winless games 

“Leeds United can confirm head coach Jesse Marsch has been relieved of his duties.

“Jesse joined the club in February 2022 and was instrumental in keeping the club in the Premier League on the final day of last season.

“Rene Maric, Cameron Toshack and Pierre Barrieu will also leave the club,” an official statement from Leeds United read. 

“We would like to thank Jesse and his backroom staff for their efforts and wish them well for the future.

“The process of appointing a new head coach is underway and we will continue to keep supporters up to date throughout the coming days.” 

It now remains to be seen who becomes the next to take up the Leeds United job. And moreover, whether Marsch will now be considered for the USMNT job, having coached RB Leipzig and Leeds United. 

Manchester City charged with 98 financial breaches between 2009 and 2018

0

Manchester City have been charged by the Premier League with unprecedented financial charges. The seasons between 2009 to 2018 have all allegedly caused 98 breaches which could lead to heavy punishment from the league board. 

City have been under investigation for a breach of Financial Fair Play rules in the past. But, they were not charged by the league at the time. This time around, though, things seem to be a little more problematic for the defending champions. 

Manchester City release statement on Premier League charges

“Manchester City FC is surprised by the issuing of these alleged breaches of the Premier League Rules, particularly given the extensive engagement and vast amount of detailed materials that the EPL has been provided with.

“The Club welcomes the review of this matter by an independent Commission, to impartially consider the comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence that exists in support of its position.

“As such we look forward to this matter being put to rest once and for all,” the official statement read. 

The case is set to be referred to an independent commission that will look into the matter. If they find that the charges against City are actually true, then a points deduction could be one of the punishments that they receive. 

In Serie A, Juventus have already suffered a similar fate. The Bianconeri might miss out on Champions League football now, after a 15-point deduction. And Manchester City could soon be on the same trajectory if they are found guilty of the charges. The case will be taken up further and will be heard in full confidence before a judgement is passed.

The Covenant: Everything We Need to Know About Jake Gyllenhaal’s Incredible Action-Drama film 

Dar Salim and Jake Gyllenhaal collaborate for a new action film titled ‘The Covenant’. The film depicts an illustrious history, having many famous families of features that have blessed our screens. The movie depicts the attack of the Affleck Brothers on Drew Barrymore and her Best Actor Academy Award-Winning great uncle Lionel, often keeping it in the family can lead to some of Hollywood’s most unforgettable stars.

In this, we have seen both the directors Stephen Gyllenhaal and screenwriter and producer Naomi Foner were well respected within the film industry and, upon the birth of their two children Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal had made the decision to allow their kids to have the chance to work within the same field as themselves. 

In this we will see both growing up as successful child actors, when they have finally come of age, despite all of Maggie’s excellent exploits as a talented performer, it was Jake who flew the highest.  It shows that his consistency throughout the last twenty years has made him a mainstay on our screens as well as a household name, with him picking up an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor and two Golden Globe nominations along the way. 

As time goes Jake Gyllenhaal is polishing himself as one of the greatest actors of his generation, with all eyes now focused on his upcoming role as Sergeant John Kinely in The Covenant. So, with that in mind, here is everything we know about The Covenant… so far. 

 

The Covenant

The Covenant: Trailer Details 

The new trailer is about the post-COVID landscape that depicts the trailers getting delayed until the last minute, fans were delighted to see the release of a trailer for The Covenant with a few months to spare. 

This trailer is ow a little bit of tension as one can expect from a film within this genre, keeping any viewer on the edge of their seat.  It is a  slight detour from his usual thematic style, writer and director Guy Ritchie has seemingly applied his authorial stamp across this entire film, with high-octane action sequences married to big-budget explosions. The film has juxtaposed themes of unlikely friendship and internal conflict that any and all viewers will likely relate to. Shot in Alicante, Spain, the trailer benefits from a daunting backdrop that really sets both the scene and the tone for what is likely to come.  

Christopher Bedstead’s brilliantly increasing score combined with the restive cover of Tom Petty And the Heartbreakers’ I Won’t Back Down only adds to the ever-growing sense of impending doom throughout the trailer’s run time. All of these factors have combined with the narrative’s sadly realistic content that makes The Covenant seem both unrelentingly action-filled, and equally poignant. Fans of the genre, Gyllenhaal and Ritchie will definitely not want to miss this one after seeing the trailer. 

The Covenant: Plot 

Following the trailer, fans will already have some sense of the plot of the film and just how crucial it will be. The official plot synopsis of The Covenant reads: 

Although this synopsis feels rather typical of its genre, that can only add to the sense of confidence fans will have about its success. Originally titled The Interpreter, The Covenant puts emphasis on the journey Ahmed and John take, with their unlikely bond seeming to be at the very core of the movie, thankfully with two great actors portraying their characters. With that in mind, who exactly is in Guy Ritchie’s latest outing?

The Covenant: Cast 

For a film of this nature, it can be easy to focus on the main characters and forget just how crucial a strong ensemble cast is. Luckily, the casting team of The Covenant has pulled out all the stops in their pursuit of a great ensemble cast, with the task of matching Jake Gyllehaal’s enthralling on-screen presence, not an easy one. Joining Jake Gyllenhaal as Sergeant John Kinley is Dar Salim as Ahmed, Christian Ochoa Lavernia as Eduardo Hernandez, and Sean Sagar as Charlie Crowther.

As well as this, there are some actors announced in the movie that, currently, haven’t been publicly assigned their characters. These actors include. Of course, there are other talented performers that will make their presence known on screen, but this list alone is enough to show just how experienced and talented the ensemble cast of The Covenant is. 

The Covenant: Release Date 

In January 2022, it was discussed that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer had taken the distribution rights to The Covenant, and from then on fans have been patiently waiting for a launch date to be set. However, despite MGM picking up the distribution rights in the US, it was Amazon Prime that acquired them internationally, meaning that The Covenant will launch on Prime Video on the same date for the rest of the world. 

Here is the trailer:
