Powerbeats Pro: The Best Wireless Earbuds For The Gym
Every music-listening gym-goer looks for three main features in their headphones – a comfortable fit, long battery life, and great sound.

With the recent boom in the availability of wireless earbuds and the advances in wireless technology, it is not difficult to find a pair of high-quality wireless earphones online.

One of these products happens to be the Beats Powerbeats Pro. Beats, known for the punchy bass in their products, revamped their existing sport-focused Powerbeats and turned them into a set of truly wireless earphones perfect for gym-goers and runners.

The older Powerbeats had a cable, that dropped down from the earbuds, wrapping around the back of the user’s neck. The cable has wholly disappeared, giving the new Powerbeats a fresh look.

Presentation-wise, the Powerbeats are unmistakably premium. The earphones come in a sturdy, black-colored charging case, which is super satisfying to snap open and shut.

The case feels solid and has the right amount of weight to it, and thanks to its magnetic catch, there are no chances of the case accidentally opening and your earphones dropping out.

The concept itself isn’t new – the case doubles as a battery pack for the earphones, that begin recharging when they’re slid back into the case.

On a full charge, you can expect the Powerbeats to last up to nine hours. The case carries a large battery – storing roughly two more full charges worth of power.

The user has a total of about 24 hours of use on fully charging the case and the earphones.

Charging the case is easy and fast, using the USB-A to Lightning cable provided in the box.

The case of Powerbeats Pro is significantly larger than the pocket-sized Apple AirPod Pros’ case. Many users find it a bit too chunky to fit into the jeans pocket or jacket pocket.

Nonetheless, since the Powerbeats are designed to be used primarily during exercise sessions, you’ll find yourself putting the case away in your bag anyway.

Let us further evaluate the performance of the Powerbeats Pro by considering the three most important metrics that gym-goers look at – sound quality, comfort, and battery life.

Sound Quality:

The products by Beats have a history of exhibiting exemplary bass, and there’s no change in that trend. The Powerbeats Pro will give you the full experience of the classic ‘Beats’ bass.

When listening to music from lower quality streaming services, too, the total bias is perfectly acceptable.

At average volumes, the presentation is clear and smooth. Turning the volume up makes the presentation of the music a touch too aggressive.

The detail in the sound the Powerbeats produce is decent – pushing the emotion behind the vocals and the resonance from each guitar strum perfectly.

However, the performance of the earphones underwhelms when used during an exercise session.

The Powerbeats Pros lack dynamic range – making the intense sound like a weak pitter-patter. The heavy thumps don’t demand attention, and music sounds fizzled out.

When the thundering bass kicks in on any track, the output as a whole is astonishingly soft and inaccurate.

The rival Sony WF-1000XM3 does a much better job. The Sonys recreate an excellent balance and timing. On the other hand, the Beats make a messy noise out of the same track.

Even with the powerful bass, the overall sound performance is plain bad. The Beats lack the authority, and the punch users expect out of a Beats product.

Comfort:

The Beats Powerbeats Pros do not compromise on comfort. The earphones come with rubber-clad hooks that supply a secure fit.

The Powerbeats are available in black, ivory, navy and moss (green) colors.

The earphones sit perfectly on the side of your head, and the adjustable and bendable ear hooks supply all the grip one would need when working out, making them a dream to wear.

As you work out, the earphones do not move from their position. They are snugly-fit to your ears, and thanks to their water and sweat-resistant design, they stay super comfortable throughout the workout.

The earphones never get hot or slip, and come with four different sized ear tips in the box, making the earphones comfortable for all users.

With the battery life, sound quality, and the comfort factor out of the way, considering the ease-of-use and sturdiness of the earphones as a package should reveal more about them.

Build Quality:

There’s more to any pair of earphones than just the comfort and sound quality they supply. What matters a lot during intense workout sessions are the controls on the earphones.

The Powerbeats have two controls (on each earpiece) – one in the shape of a volume rocker switch, and the other being the Beats symbol itself.

These controls unlock loads of features that you’d need mid-workout.

Tapping on the volume rocker will adjust the volume. The beats button is super versatile – you can use it to play/pause music and receive calls with a single tap.

Double-tapping skips the current track, and a triple-tap goes back one song.

Fast-forwarding and rewinding is also simple – users must hold down these double and triple-taps.

Since the controls are available on both the earphones, they’ll help you sift through your playlist without touching your phone regardless of if you’re left- or right-handed.

Another impressive feature of the Powerbeats Pros is the use of proximity sensors. Taking them off for just a moment results in pausing the music.

Put them back on, and the playback begins again.

Pros and Cons

Pros:
- Flawless control system
- Great battery life
- Amazing comfort and fit
Cons:
- Audio lacks authority
- Limited dynamic range
The Powerbeats Pros are among the best wireless earphones in the market. They boast a reliable build quality, have great controls, and are super comfortable.

However, the audio quality is underwhelming and will annoy users that expect super-rich, punchy music as they exercise.

If you’re looking for wireless earphones that last super long and are easy to control, these are the right earphones for you.

However, if you consider yourself an audiophile, steer clear of the Powerbeats Pros.

Misfit Vapor X Review – Forget The Fuss
Misfit Vapor X was officially announced on August 19 this year. However, the series has been in the market since 2017 and is very popular among fitness lovers. It is a smart-watch from Fossil, a well-reputed watch brand across the globe.

Let us get straight to the point and understand what Misfit is…

For people who are not aware, Misfit is a fitness brand that started out making fitness trackers through crowdsourcing. Firstly, they made a coin-shaped device that used to track your fitness, and then they explored and came up with new products.

After the launch of Vapor 2 in 2018, they have now come up with Vapor X.

Top brands like Huawei and Samsung are producing wearables and use their patent software whereas, “Wear OS” watches take care of by smaller brands like TicWatch, Fossil, and Misfit.

With the Misfit Vapor X, you will undoubtedly consider spending a bit more due to its classy, bright, and trendy looks and a super elegant frame.

It is a perfect looking wearable. However, Misfit is a brand known for sports, but Vapor X doesn’t give a sporty look. It goes well with all looks and occasions.

The look of the watch is sharp, professional and it can go with everything you wear.

It looks much better than TicWatch and is thinner and lighter than the original Vapor. Misfit hasn’t changed the look too much since the Vapor 2, but to be honest, still no issues!

Why Should You Like it?
- - Firstly, it has a well- designed sleek look and is ultra-lightweight.
  - Keeps Heart Rate Count.
  - Comes with “Pay as you go” facility
  - GPS Tracker is available
  - Swim- Proof, 30 m Water Resistant
  - Phone Free Music, it includes a speaker for audio output
  - Snapdragon wear 3100, which helps the power through, that’s the newest Qualcomm Snapdragon Processor
  - AMOLED display, it is pretty much superb!
  - Rapid Charging, the battery life is impressive; we can at least use it throughout the day and a half without charging! Wherein the “Do NOT Disturb” feature also helps in keeping the battery saved for an additional amount of time
  - The buttons provided are soft
  - A smooth, quick release option to change the strap
  - To come to the price, it’s is cheaper than Gen 5 and also less expensive than Skagen Falster 2
Is it all good?
- - The main frustration is that you do have to plug into a charger to power the watch back on. However, Fossil should now get along with the true wireless charging, though the charger is not bad but not that convenient too.
- - It also provides the “Ultra Battery Saver Mode” which turns the watch into a basic Digital Watch, which is somewhat disappointing
  - The Audio function is not much practical (The speaker provided for Audio Output)
  - The strap provided does not look that amazing. Also, the material is like fake leather and gives a plastic feel
  - HR Tracking is a little disappointing
Verdict:

Misfit Vapor X does everything that a smart-watch should do. Wear it once. You will not feel like replacing it with anything else. The battery life is incredible, which is mainly required and efficiently delivers all the features. Apart from a few unnoticeable bugs, it is an excellent deal to bag.

Nubia Alpha is a Smartphone That You Can Wear On Hand

When it comes to look at Nubia Alpha, the first thing you will see is its narrow, long curved display which you can wear on your wrist. When you wear it, don’t get surprised by curious strangers who might ask you about it. Some may feel that it seems like a band Batman used to wear while some think that it is a fitness band-kind of device. But honestly, Nubia Alpha is a crazy smartphone which adds appeal to your wrist.

One of the most common questions is – What the heck Nubia Alpha is. It can be wrapped like a watch on your wrist, but it’s not a watch in any way. It is decked out with larger display than most of the smartphones out there and it can make calls for you. Whether you look at it as a smartphone or watch, it actually depends on your perspective on a phone.

The Nubia Alpha supports eSim to make calls in China, just like some of the models of Apple Watch. In the US, Nubia Alpha can paired to your device through Bluetooth. Whether you consider or not, but Apple Watches are definitely not considered as phones.

After using the so-called “wearable smartphone” by Nubia for a few weeks, I must say that it is definitely not a smartphone. At least, not the way we use our phones. It doesn’t even have a web browser. Leave Google Maps, Instagram, Uber or other apps alone.

Though you can easily criticize Nubia Alpha as a useless, crazy gadget, there are still some of the features and design elements you would like. Nubia actually misses a lot on its execution. But it comes with a new form factor and has set a new trend for wearables, I can say. It could definitely redefine what we look at our smart watches and smartphones, though a lot of fixes to be done here.

When tweaks have been made to the camera or ergonomics of its display and software improvements are made, Nubia Alpha would definitely be worthy of its hefty price tag of $449. You will mostly get a watch which definitely has features that can make it a head-turner.

Bendy 4-inch display

The 4-inch OLED bendable display is one of the most worthwhile features in Nubia Alpha. It is mounted well on the steel band which fits securely and well on the wrist. You might be lining up 3 screens from one end to another in a row. There is lots of screen real estate and it really comes handy to read a huge string of texts. It really wraps across your wrist. It’s weird that Nubia is still not able to find out how you can check out emails on that bendable display.

You can’t see the whole display of the device without having to wrist your wrist in Olympic style. You could get the most of it if Nubia managed to move the display so you can see more of it in your wrist. I haven’t faced any durability problem with flexible display of Nubia Alpha. Remember the time when Samsung revealed the review samples of Galaxy Fold? It faced a lot of complaints regarding folding display.

iPhone 4 camera features, but lacks in quality

You will see a 5MP camera atop the wrist. But taking selfies is really a terrible affair. I could often twist and stretch my arm to cover the whole head in its frame. But this little bit of effort rarely gave a nice shot. As per modern standards, image quality is quite bad. The photo quality is pretty much like iPhone 3GS. Nubia Alpha is far behind when it comes to getting great views.

It can record video, but only for 10 seconds. I don’t know why you are going to use a phone when you cannot get good image quality and can’t even record longer videos. If Nubia could move the camera within the wrist, it would really deliver decent videos and selfies. Moving both the camera and display calls for both right-handed and left-handed variant but it could be a lot more useful.

It would be even better if we could use at least one button to push the shutter. It’s odd to click a picture with in-display camera shutter as my fingers often block the camera.

Not a bracelet in any way

There is one myth should be busted here. Nubia Alpha is definitely not a slap bracelet. A metal link with dual clasp is one of the best things of this device. You can add/remove links easily to resize the watch over your wrist. It goes without saying that the Nubia Alpha is hefty and chunky. Unlike the silicone band, it felt secure and solid.

The battery which lived up to 48 hours on one charge is the best feature of Nubia Alpha. It also has IP65 rating for water and dust resistance. Actually, it lived up to dust, water splashes and some cold coffee splashed on it.

Clunky and confusing software

It is nice to say that Nubia tacked the software on this device. I really liked its Red Magic Mars smartphone which runs much like stock Android 9 Pie. In Alpha, it seems that company started from scratch. Its software is quite confusing and clunky to navigate.

Just playing a song is insanely difficult. From weather to fitness, it has lots of tiny apps. You need to type phrases or words to scroll through the display. It is very easy to navigate the apps, i.e. just like you would do with finger swipes and scrolls. It can detect gestures with Alpha Gestures. Even though it was cool, I don’t know how often I am going to use it.

The software was quite buggy with some inconsistencies. A new email notification shows up two times, once as Android push message and once from Gmail. The dialog boxes also have “OK” “Cancel” missing. It has lots of fitness features. For example, you can track your steps, heart rate, sleep and workouts.

The Best Samsung Galaxy S10 Screen Protectors

Samsung Galaxy S10 literally comes with an elegant and stunning design featuring the elegant 6.1” Dynamic AMOLED full-view display with just a punch-hole selfie camera on the top right corner and slimmest bezels. It looks really appealing but the only downside is its slippery metal and glass design.

If you are worried about the risk of unwanted scratches or fall damage, there is no problem investing in the best screen protector for your Galaxy S10. You need something for your display for total coverage. We have come up with the best screen protectors for your Galaxy S10.

Basically Samsung Galaxy S10 comes with a plastic screen protector out of the box, especially because the company may be concerned about the quality of third-party screen protectors and whether they will be compatible with its punch-hole camera and in-display fingerprint sensor.

However, plastic may not have enough strength to prevent the impact against bumps and drops. This way, you need a strong tempered glass protector. Samsung has also faced issues related to the security of the fingerprint scanner, especially due to screen protectors.

Samsung has rolled out software updates to fix the issue related to security. But if security is a major concern and you want an in-display fingerprint scanner to lock/unlock the device, you need to figure out whether it is good to use a screen protector. With that said, here are some of the best screen protectors for your Galaxy S10.

Zagg InvisibleShield Ultra Clear

Of course, this screen protector is made of glass but it still looks and feels like real glass. Zagg uses stronger material than a regular plastic screen protector. In the case of slips and falls, it provides good shatter protection.

It can also heal minor scratches automatically and promises that it will support your device’s in-display fingerprint scanner. Though it doesn’t have any cutout for the camera, it is truly clear and it won’t cause any issue. It can easily fit your screen and you can easily follow the instructions watching the video.

Whitestone Dome Screen Protector

Whitestone Dome is one of the best solutions combining liquid adhesive with robust tempered glass. Let us be clear that it takes care and patience to apply the glass. Use the kit properly and follow the instructions properly to have the right coverage which is almost invisible.

It also has cured adhesive forms like a close bond and a cutout for the camera. This way fingerprint scanner will work without any glitch. Some people also report issues by applying this protector as it can be impaired.

But it provides strong protection to your screen against bumps, drops, and scratches. It can also fill in current scuffs and it has a lifetime warranty.

LK Screen Protector

The LK Screen Protector is simply a TPU film to protect against small scratches and bumps but it has nothing to do with potential cracks in case you accidentally drop Samsung Galaxy S10. It is an affordable buy and comes in a pack of 3 screen protectors. But the company promises that the screen protector will not affect fingerprint scanner in any case.

However, you need to apply it with care to avoid unwanted bubbles, just like with other screen protectors. It is better to follow the instructions when you start. It also prevents yellowing with UV protection. This screen protector can definitely fit your bill if you are up for basic protection.

ESR Tempered Glass

You need to keep in mind before buying this tempered glass is that it will affect the in-display fingerprint scanner if you apply it to Galaxy S10. If you frequently use this security feature, you may want to skip it.

Before going further, learn about its plus points. It is a robust and tempered glass that comes with a traditional adhesive. It covers the screen very well without changing the feel at all. Even, it can resist around 11 pounds of impact to save your device in case you drop it.

Also, its easy to install. It features oleophobic coating to avoid smudges due to fingers and liquids. The pack contains a set of two protectors. So, you can buy it if you are not going to use the in-display fingerprint sensor.

IQ Shield Screen Protector

This is yet another great choice if you are looking for a plastic film protector that can work with an in-display fingerprint scanner without any hiccups. It is available with a wet installation method that is truly transparent. It can also remove minor scuffs on its own.

But don’t expect it to heal large impact damage. It also has a cutout for punch-hole camera and it fits really well. The pack contains a set of two and it comes really handy if you need a backup of one protector in case you want to replace it.

Skinomi TechSkin Full Coverage Screen Protector

Using your Galaxy S10 can lead to unwanted dents, scratches or other damages on a daily basis. The screen becomes harder to read in a few months and your hard-earned money on it goes in vain due to reduced resale value and embarrassment when it comes to using it in public.

You may not want to use the poor quality, disposable screen protector which is a temporary solution to keep your device looking whole new. They also need to be replaced constantly. By considering the same, Skinomi has brought a permanent solution which makes your Galaxy S10 screen durable and reliable.

Skinomi TechSkin is a flexible, self-healing and tough screen protector made with tough thermoplastic urethane material to resist impact. TechSkin can resist punctures, scratches, and UV damage. This screen protector has been designed with laser cutting tech for optimum screen coverage on curved devices too.

Clearview Tempered Glass

This tough, crystal clear tempered glass is made in Japan. It is 9H rated screen protector which is known for toughness with oleophobic and hydrophobic coating to avoid finger smudges and liquid damage. At the edges, it is curved to fit your device ell and it needs some care and focus to fit well.

You need to use an LED curing lamp and liquid adhesive. It supports most cases and protects the screen against drop damage or bumps if it is fitted well.

5 Things You Should Know About Upcoming Nokia TV

Nokia recently released a teaser about its latest device. It is expected to be released on the 5th of December 2019. While Nokia has not said a word so far, Flipkart has confirmed that the new product by Nokia is a TV. Flipkart even shared a picture to give us a peek into how the Nokia TV would look. With the TV about to be released, let’s take a look at its highlights and features. The TV is expected to be unveiled at an event in New Delhi. Flipkart is the official brand licensee for Nokia and is expected to handle all the sales for Nokia branded Smart TVs.

Design

Nokia TV is designed and manufactured using the best hardware available for its display. There are plenty of rumours going around about the same. According to speculations, it is believed that the the TV will come with a 55-inch 4K panel, offering the best experience ever. The TV is designed to be ultra-slim and might look similar to Xiaomi’s 55 inches model.

Nokia Smart TV

Dolby Audio Sound Quality

One of the major drawbacks in the televisions today is that downgraded sound quality. Even the higher models come with only decent quality audio. However, the TV will have incredible audio enhancements like Dolby Audio support. Besides this, you will also be able to enjoy a surround and theatre-like sound experience thanks to DTS TruSurround Sound support.

JBL Acoustics

While Nokia has not mentioned that the TV would come with JBL Audio, the picture shared by Flipkart tells us that it will indeed be the case. Flipkart later confirmed the speculation that the it will be powered by the JBL audio. Since this is the first time JBL will be seen in the TV audio sector, many are excited to see how things will turn out.

Specifications of Nokia TV

While there has been nothing regarding specifications about the smart TV, we know that it will come with Android TV OS. With Nokia being a smartphone brand, we can be sure that they will use a good enough processor with the required RAM to make sure that the Nokia TV runs smoothly. The rumours also suggest that the TV might come with a separate JBL soundbar.

Price

So far, there has not been any mention of price, from either Flipkart nor Nokia. However, looking at Nokia’s pricing trends, it doesn’t look like the TV will fall in the affordable range. It could be priced somewhere along with the range of the OnePlus TV. Despite this, it should be worth it since Nokia is known for its build quality and features.

Verdict – Nokia TV

While it may have come as a surprise that Nokia is releasing a smart TV, it is not really very shocking. Especially since other smartphone companies like OnePlus and Huawei have already dipped their toes in this sector. According to Flipkart, the date of release is not all that far away. So, we can expect the see the Nokia TV release any day now.

The Samsung Smartwatch Review: Samsung Galaxy Watch

The Samsung Galaxy Watch is finally here. The Samsung smartwatch was announced with the latest Note 9 smartphone at the Galaxy Unpacked 2018. This 42mm Rose Gold model is as stylish as they come. Name-wise, Samsung no longer names its watch along with the ‘Gear S’ series. Instead of simply upgrading the specs and releasing a new watch, the company has redesigned pretty much all aspects of the smartwatch, making it more usable, functional, and chic.

While it looks like your regular watch, it is packed with cool smart features. This combination is what is likely to attract customers. While the Apple Watch has far too much experience for Samsung to consider it a competition, maybe the company hopes to catch up someday. The Galaxy Watch is available in two sizes – 42mm or 46mm. You will be able to choose from Midnight Black, Rose Gold, and Silver. Instead of a funky smartwatch, it looks and feels like your regular watch, but has all the features and functions of a reliable smartwatch.

Design And Hardware

With a large circular face and a metal body, the watch is pretty attractive. However, if you like the design of Apple Watch, you may feel this is a bit more traditional in its design. If you want your battery to last long, you could turn off the Always-on display. With this, your Galaxy Watch display will turn into a black circle. Again, although nobody right now can compete with Apple regarding the quality of build, Samsung has done a pretty great job.

Samsung Galaxy Watch

While its aesthetics could be improved since it feels a little bit cheap as it sits on our wrists, maybe Samsung is just getting started. It doesn’t feel like a stylish piece of accessory – more like a functional piece of technology. Looks and design apart, the Galaxy Watch has tons of features that will win your hearts. It is one of the most user-friendly and functional smartwatches out there. It comes with two buttons and a rotating bezel, using which you can easily navigate around the apps, menus, and the general UI.

The bezel clicks as you rotate it, making it tactile and satisfying. The 42mm model comes with a 1.2-inch display while the 46mm Galaxy Watch has a larger 1.3-inch screen. The dimensions of the former are 41.9 x 45.7 x 12.7mm. It is perfect for use with 20mm straps. The larger model features the 472mAh which is a significant jump up from the 270mAh battery present in the 42mm model. The battery life of the watch is good enough with being able to last any time between four to five days.

Features

The Samsung Galaxy Watch uses Tizen 4.0 OS. You will find that it is compatible with all phones running on Android 5.0 and later. It also works well with iPhone running iOS 9 and above. Its interface is extremely tactile, intuitive, and simple. It is so far ahead that it simply cannot even be compared with the likes of Wear OS and watchOS. Coming to Tizen’s drawbacks, it has very little third-party support. This means that you will be restricted to using only Samsung apps.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Display

Coming to Bixby, the Galaxy Watch features Samsung’s AI voice assistant. It is designed to replace S Voice on the new Galaxy Watch. Practically speaking, Bixby doesn’t add any actual value and is pretty much useless. Google Assistant would have been a better addition to the watch and offered the users a much nicer experience.

Samsung Health

Samsung has made health a major focus of its latest smartwatch. They have integrated Samsung Health here, which has new features like stress management and breathing along with a range of 21 indoor exercises and 39 tracked workouts. Some of them include running, walking, cycling, swimming, exercise bike, treadmill, weight machine, crunches, deadlifts, hiking, leg press, and other commonly used gym equipment.

It is an easy enough task to jump between the different tracking modes. All you need to do is to rotate the bezel of your Galaxy Watch. While the smartwatch is great enough for tracking a casual user’s activities and progress, it is by no means a reliable replacement for Garmin or Suunto. Besides your exercises, the watch will be able to measure your stress, give you a stress score, and even track your sleep. The stress score generally automatically calculates. While the watch offers sleep tracking, it is not a viable option since the watch seems a bit too bulky to sleep with.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Review

Samsung Smartwatch And 4G

The latest version of the Samsung smartwatch features 4G. The features change geographically, from country to country. Looking at the UK, the Galaxy Watch 4G is exclusively compatible with EE mobile contracts. The watch is designed to fit in an eSIM which you can use to pair the watch to your device. Once done, you can link it to your plan. In certain plans, you can use unlimited data, make calls, and send texts from the watch itself. The cellular function works perfectly and gives no cause of concern. You can comfortably use your watch even if you are away from your phone or a Wi-Fi network. The watch has two versions – Bluetooth and LTE/4G – both of which feature a dual-core 1.15GHz chipset and 4GB of internal storage space. The LTE/4G has 1.5GB RAM while the Bluetooth version of the smartwatch only has 768MB.

Verdict

Considering Samsung’s offering to this sector, we agree that the Samsung Galaxy Watch is one of the best ones the company has even developed. While its aesthetics could be improved, it is functional and features a lot of abilities. Its new fitness tracking capabilities, data usage, and other details make it a great option to consider. With the Galaxy Watch running on Tizen, offering a reasonably great battery life, and available in multiple colours, the smartwatch is a great upgrade from its predecessor. The different sizes and colours will do their bit in attracting the customers too.

The Funniest Things to Ask Alexa
Amazon’s Alexa can perform lots of tasks for you. From home control to food delivery, she has solutions to all the problems you have. She can also give some unexpected responses or funny answers to the questions you have in mind. The users can also try the funniest things to ask alexa and get the interesting answers.

We are here to share some of the wittiest responses by Alexa. Here are some of the funniest things to ask alexa for goofy answers. You don’t have to add any skill to try these questions.
1. Do You Wanna Date with me?
Can’t find a perfect match for online dating? Don’t lose heart. You can propose Alexa to be your girlfriend. But be ready because you might be friend-zoned.

Example – “I like you but as a friend”

Alexa loves to have fun but she is not made for any commitment.
1. Can You Sneeze?
We can’t tell you what Alexa has to do with a sneeze command added by Amazon. Of course, it is one of her secret talents.

Example – “Luckily, I can sneeze for you. ACHOO!”

Get a tissue handy. Who knows what bug she is spreading?
1. Can You Rap?
Alexa is a chatterbox like you. But she is talented enough to be a rapper for you. Ask her to rap something and be ready to hear the track from your Echo mixtape.
1. Can You Hide a Body?
People asked several ridiculous questions to the first dedicated virtual assistant, Apple’s Siri. “Where can I hide a body?” was one of the epic questions of that time. Siri would list the dumps and swamps nearby initially. But a screenshot of her answer was gone viral in a murder case. Since then, the company changed her response to “I used to know the answer”.

If you ask the same weird question to Alexa, be ready to get a weird response.

Example – “Can I take the body to the police?”

We hope you don’t want to be in such a scenario.

Is the Cake a Lie?

The most popular puzzle title “Portal” in 2007 has had a line that became all-time favorite for gamers. While traveling along the Aperture Science test chambers, the GLaDOS, a robot promises you a cake once you finish the testing.

But you can find a lot of dens where an escaped scientist claims “the cake is a lie” and warns you that you won’t receive cake at the end. Alexa seems to take the side of GLaDOS as she loves the cake.

Example – “No cake is real. In fact, it is moist and juicy. You can taste some if you have done asking questions.”
