Protect yourself from Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The best way to prevent the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic illness is by avoiding your exposure to the virus. Clean your hands often, use soap and water for at least 20 seconds or a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol to clean your hands more frequently.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands or after being in the public.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Maintain a safe distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community.
Stay home if you’re sick and take help from local health authorities and medical professionals.
Make sure to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or use the inside of your elbow when you cough or sneeze. Properly dispose the used tissues in the trash, and immediately clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer.
Wear a face mask if you are sick or if you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. Do not wear a face mask unless you are caring for someone who is sick.

This could be the Samsung Galaxy S11 Plus's battery


What you see above could possibly be the battery for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S11 Plus. The next generation frontrunner smartphones from South Koreans have been making rounds on the web and as we understand more about these devices, we have a new image surface lately courtesy of a Dutch website, who claims this to be the non-removable battery belonging to the 2020 flagship smartphone from Samsung. The battery is rated at 5000mAh, which should be the largest battery capacity we have ever seen debut on a flagship from Samsung.

 The battery that leaked here carries a model number EB-BG988ABY, where we already heard from other reports that the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy S11 Plus's model number is reportedly mentioned as SM-G988. Adding strength to these speculations, you will also be able to find the battery with the same model number on South Korea's certification database, SafetyKorea. It is also reported that the battery has been made in Vietnam by Samsung SDI. Considering the purported 6.9" large screen with a refresh rate of 120Hz, the Galaxy S11 Plus could require a large battery for the higher-end performance it offers.
