    How To Switch Between Two Android Launchers After Setting One As Default
    This tutorial will teach you how to simply switch between two android launchers after setting one as default.  I believe by now, that you already know what android launchers are; they are apps that add different fanciful styles to your android themes, app drawers etc. in just a manner that will make you love your android screen user interface.

    Examples of common launchers are Go launchers, CMS launcher, Zero launchers and so many others out there that you can choose from and that will presents its unique styling features to your android.

    Yesterday, somebody told me that he has 2 different launchers on his android device and that he has opted to use one of the launchers as his default launcher by choosing the always option against the just once option that was presented to him.

    He continued by telling me that he wants to switch and use the other launcher but finding it difficult to do so.

    I know that some of you out there might be facing similar difficulty in switching between your android launchers especially when you have set one as default.

    In that vein I decided to through light on how you can easily switch between launchers and play around them even if you have up to 5 of them; it shouldn’t present that difficulty to set any of  your choice android launcher as default.

    Now out of your numerous android launchers, for you to switch and set another one as default after having one as default already, follow the simple steps below;

    I believe you know the names of the launchers that you have installed to your device

    ·     With your android phone, navigate your way to Settings>>All>>Apps

    ·     Then swipe left 3 times to land on All menu

    ·     Under All, locate the current default launcher

    ·     Tap on the current default launcher and move down where you will see the clear default tab

    ·     Tab on the clear default to reset

    ·      Now go back to your home screen and hold down the home key; it will then prompt you again to choose from the list of your launchers to use either always or just once.

    After setting which one to use, you can from now on always repeat the entire process above to switch between your android launchers any time you set one as default (Always)

    Comparing Gionee M3 Mini and Infinix Hot–x507
    This will give you a brief information between Gionee M3 Mini and Infinix Hot-x507 while comparing both devices. Now these two devices, Infinix Hot and recently launched Gionee M3 Mini are definitely in similar categories and thus worth comparison. If your pocket is currently light and you are looking for highly budgeted MTK android phones that can still keep you in touch with happenings around the world, then you can turn to Infinix Hot or the recent Gionee M3 Mini as your next companion.

    These two devices have been highly debated recently on which of the devices is better and that will be advisable to go for.


    For this reason,  I am going to be bringing their differences in features, so at the end you will be able to make an informed discussion on which of the devices to pick and that will better serve you even with your low budget.


    We are not going to waste time here but to take you straight to the differences in their specs, and below are the features that separate both phones apart;

        The Infinix Hot features a bigger 5.0inches display than the Gionee M3 Mini 4.5inches screen, but both came with the same screen resolutions of 480 X 854pixel making the one with the smaller screen sharper

         Infinix Hot came with 1.3GHz quad core Cortex-A7 Mediatek MT6582 chipset whereas the Gionee

    M3 Mini features a 1GHz quad core Cortex-A53 Mediatek MT6726M chipset

        Infinix Hot 16GB internal memory while Gionee M3 Mini came with 8GB ROM, both have external micro-SD card slot that can take up to about 32GB

        Coming down to connectivity, Infinix Hot has 2G and 3G network connections whereas Gionee M3 Mini includes 4G LTE network with the 2G and 3G networks

        Infinix Hot runs on Android 4.4 Kitkat whereas Gionee M3 Mini features Android 5.1 Lollipop

        Now, the Infinix Hot has a removable 2000mAh Li-ion battery while that of the Gionee M3 Mini is a removable 4000mAh Li-ion type.

    You should know that those are the major differences between both devices, for example both of them came with 5MP and 2MP back and front shutter and that is why we did not include it above and since we are fishing out only their differences.

    On a lighter note, it may interest you to know that both devices are priced at about $87 (N17,500)
