SAMSUNG PAY (worth revolutionizing our payment methods?)

SINCE 8 November 2016 (demonetization date in India),cashless payment methods and internet banking had taken new heights and companies like Paytm and quickcharge etc. are working hard to bring the comfort of payment to the smart phones lying in your pockets.
These apps (after installing in your devices and after filling your banking details for transactions and all) can help you pay your online bills, recharge your services and take or give cash from one to the other person etc....
But when these applications can provide you with all these great services then what is so special about the upcoming Samsung electronics' initiative namely SAMSUNG PAY.(does not include any paid promotions).

SAMSUNG PAY

An initiative by Samsung electronics.

It let users make online payments using compatible phones and basically works the best with Samsung devices.

This service of Samsung does not only allow you to make con-tactless payments but also incorporates an electromagnetic transmission system that makes it accessible on payment terminals(only magnetic stripe supporting ones).

FUN FACT o.1 - Samsung PAY was initially developed by an crowdfunded startup company, LoopPay.

Samsung acquired the Samsung pay from LoopPay in February,2015.

LoopPay believed that there MST(magnetic secure transmission) technology would work with about 90% of all point-of-sale in United States.

FUN FACT 0.2 - SAMSUNG PAY WAS FIRST LAUNCHED IN KOREA ON AUGUST 20,2015.
followed by - United States,China,Spain,Singapore,Australia,Puerto Rico,Brazil,Russia,Thailand,Canada,Malaysia.

AND NOW ON MARCH 6,2017 WE FINALLY WELCOME IT IN INDIA.

On May 2016, it was reported that Samsung was developing a smaller version of their PAY service which will be used for online payments only.

On January 2017,Samsung confirmed that this smaller version of the service would not be only available on galaxy devices but also on other android devices which will be running lollipop or above versions of android and have a resolution 1280 x 720 pixels or higher.

Samsung Pay works the best with their own mobile phone range including -

Galaxy series.
On series.
J series.
Note series.
and any other series which belongs to Samsung Electronics.(but definitely not with any non-smart cell phone series.)

Samsung declares that it will bring Samsung PAY properties of NFC and MST technology payment to its smart watches series.So the comfort of payment will be bought to your wist.

Here is the link that will provide you with the full setup and usage of the service on your probably compatible device- http://www.samsung.com/in/samsung-pay/ (doesn't include any paid promotions.)

hence let us bring it to the conclusion -It looks Samsung is revolutionizing the way we pay by making it more comfortable and relaxingBUT, the truth is something else.Samsung is not the only company which is thinking about revolutionizing the way we pay as there are a bunch of companies which can be seen to deal with it.

ANDROID PAY by Google - It gives almost all of the android phones the power of tap-to-pay purchases with NFC technology.

APPLE PAY by Apple - Apple PAY is a service initiated by Apple to make payments in-person easier.It only supports ios devices.It sought to replace all other methods of payment like magnetic stripe, credit cards, debit cards or any other method by pure contact-less method.

MICROSOFT WALLET by Microsoft - IT is a service initiated by Microsoft that let users make payments and store loyalty cards on certain devices.It currently runs the HCE(host card emulation) technology for storing loyalty cards in certain devices (which in my means is pretty impressive).Mostly similar to android pay.

These are some of the services initiated by well-known companies to make the way you pay a lot easier. But, the problem is that even not one of these are till now (March,2017) available in India.

So lets see how Samsung pay establish itself in India and will it be able to reach our aspirations.

Thanks for reading.
Keep up for more awesome stuff.

Piezoelectric Crystal

Piezoelectric Crystal {literally_pressing electricity} Ever wondered what it might be like to live in dark or sleep in a hot summer day without an AC ? Absurd, isn't it ? But with the rate at which we are using our resources, it may not be long before it actually happens. Scientist across the globe are searching for new resources, stocks and technology to prevent the near, unpleasant future of current and the next gen. One of these, an unexploited tech is that of Piezoelectricity. Piezoelectricity is an ability of some special materials (like crystals of quartz, ceramics of lithium niobite, gallium arsenide, zinc oxide) to trigger an electric charge when supposed to mechanical stress. These materials are available in basic instruments that we use in our daily life like microphones, quartz watch, gramophones. All these materials are run by the piezoelectric current. But how does it work? When you apply force (mechanical force) on it, an electric potential, on eit

The Inverse & Reciprocal TRIGONOMETRIC Functions

So, this is my second post on trigonometry. In this post we're gonna cover the reciprocal and the inverse Trigonometric functions. If you haven't seen my first post you should definitely view it as it covers the basics of Trigonometry The Reciprocal Trigonometric Functions The reciprocal Trigonometric function of Sine is Cosecant, of Cosine is Secant & for Tangent it is Cotangent. Cosecant (Csc θ = 1/Sin θ) or (Hypotenuse/Opposite) Secant (Sec θ = 1/Cos θ) or (Hypotenuse/Adjacent) Cotangent (Cot θ = 1/Tan θ) or (Adjacent/Opposite) We can also represent Tan θ in another way. As Tan θ = opposite/adjacent & Sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse & Cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse ∴ Tan θ = Sin θ/Cos θ (The hypotenuses cancel out) As Cot θ = 1/Tan θ So, we can also represent Cot θ as Cos θ/Sin θ.

High School Pedia

It is an initiative by some students to spread the light of knowledge to everyone and everywhere. It was started in the year 2015 and has grown rapidly in the past few months. By the means of this website, we try to provide information on every topic that we can reach up to. You can find different articles on this website. All these articles are written in simple language so that everyone can understand it and learn from it. We at High School Pedia believe in creative learning and this is the reason why we add our own edited graphical representations in every article. Once a very learned man said, “Knowledge increases by not keeping it to yourself but by sharing it with others”. And we follow the same motto “Share to Learn”. The team of High School Pedia tries its best to provide you with the best and original content. Unlike many other websites, High School Pedia is famous for its original and inspiring content.

Anode Ray Experiment

→Anode ray experiment was conducted by E Goldstein. →These rays are also known as canal rays. →This experiment helped in the discovery of the proton. Apparatus Used A discharge tube was taken in which there were 2 electrodes i.e. Anode(+ve) and the cathode (-ve). The tube was filled with an inert gas. A perforated or porous cathode was used. A layer of zinc sulphide was placed at the back of the cathode. There was a vacuum pump in the tube. High voltage (5000v-10000v) was allowed to flow through the system. It was observed that when the gas was at 1atm(atmospheric pressure ) no change was seen in the tube. When the pressure was decreased inside the tube, a glow could be seen at the back side of the cathode.

Levitation 2

LEVITATION II To be completely honest I was going to start this with a pun. I did think of one but it doesn’t float… I am sorry I just had to. Anyway, this is the second part to the article on super cool ways of making things levitate. Go check the first part out if you haven’t already. Actually, the first part may have become repulsive with all the magnets and stuff, but I promise this will be more attractive. Get it? No? I’ll stop now. I am just going to jump straight into it. 1. Electrostatic Levitation I know you are probably sick and tired of magnets but they are the best way you know… This method is somewhat similar. You remember that cool science experiment you did with two straws attracting or repulsing each other based on their charge? So basically using the same principle we can make a charged object levitate. But before you try it, let me tell you it won’t be easy. Even impossible according to our Mr. Earnshaw. He even made a law (the law is

Isotopes, Isobars and Isotones

Isotopes These are elements which have the same atomic number but different atomic mass . They have the same atomic number because the number of protons that are inside their nuclei remains the same. But, they have different atomic mass because the number of neutrons that are also inside their nuclei is different. As the number of protons inside nuclei remains same, therefore the overall charge of the elements also remains same as in isotopes: no of protons = no of electrons . Hence, as isotopes overall charge remains neutral, therefore their chemical properties will also remain identical. Therefore, Isotopes are chemically same but physically different.

Upcoming Marvel Movies

Hey, guys! Today we are going to talk about the 5 most awaited and upcoming marvel movies. Everyone is eagerly waiting right ?! 1) GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY vol.2 (2017) Last month marvel shared the first teaser of Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 describing it as the official sneak-peak.
