HTC U11 full specifications, features and price

We didn't expect HTC to launch a new flagship phone after just 4 months of announcing the U-ultra, it happened anyway.

The HTC u11 has been launched and pre-orders are already live in some countries.

I consider this phone to be the best phone released so far this year, although it'll get stiff competition from the likes of LG G6, Galaxy S8, sony Xperia xz premium, Huawei p10 plus and the Xiaomi mi 6 I see it conquering most of them.

It comes with a unique edge sense feature, with this you can complete tasks by just squeezing the phone.

How to block your service provider from disturbing you with unwanted calls

unwanted calls and unsolicited SMS are some of the most talked about problems in the Telecom sector.

Telecom companies like airtel and GLO can call you like 10 times per day (although not everyday) just to advertise their products, most of these products are ones you aren't interested in or might have already known about. So you see how frustrating it is to receive up to 10 unwanted calls daily.


Anyway,with this tutorial am about to show you, this problem unwanted calls problem will be thing of the past.

Please note that This tutorial is only for people using Android device.

Here we go!

• download call blocker app from Google playstore here

• launch the application and click on black list on the top.
Add the number your network carrier used to call you, e.g airtel calls me now and I write down their number, copy it and add to the call blocker blacklist.
Am now free from their bondage as I've blacklisted more than 8 airtel and MTN service numbers.

• go to settings and enable notification so you can know when a call is blocked from getting to you.

Just blacklist as much as you can and you won't be disturbed anymore, it's good to know that these service providers use less than 8 different numbers to call us, so if you can blacklist all of them, then you are free. Just check your call history, find the number they used to call you and blacklist it.
They will surely use that number to call you again.
And that's all, you see how easy it was.
Make sure you come back here daily for more exciting contents like this.

Why you should use messenger lite instead of full messenger app

Facebook recently launched messenger lite and it's like a mini version of the messenger app, it's very light weight, load faster even in poor network connection and also use lesser phone memory.

Unlike the full messenger app, messenger Lite load very quick, you can send messages, photos, links to anyone else who uses Messenger quick and fast.

Messenger Lite uses less data, with this app you will save your data, it uses very small amount of your data plan, so you save money as well.



Messenger Lite uses less phone resources, due to its small nature and not too much features, it's used small RAM and internal storage so you can save space for other apps and use your phone easily without lags.

Messenger Lite uses less battery power, while using this app, you can expect less battery power being used.

Messenger Lite works well on poor network connections, so if you're in a place with poor network connection, this app is for you, it's designed to work on 2G network, so you don't really need to worry about network connection when using this app.



Overall, messenger Lite is a good app, I wasn't really expecting so much features on it, so far I haven't had any issue with it, and I hope facebook keeps it simple and easy, and not ruin it with bloatwares like they did to the full messenger application.
