If you came here to check out the issue “youtube you’re offline check your connection” then you are at the right place. We receive thousands of emails regarding this offline in our comment section. This not only makes your experience awful but also stalls the information through Youtube. As users have raised problems while watching videos they suddenly get disconnected and an offline notification pops up on their screen. As such there are many issues that users are facing that we gonna provide you with solutions for here. 

In this article, we will discuss in detail the aforesaid topic. Additionally, we will try to solve all the possible queries regarding youtube getting offline. 

Here are some of the solutions that you need to try to fix “Youtube youre offline check your connection” problems 

Method 1: Check your Internet connection  

In any case, whenever you go offline suddenly, the first thing a user need to do is to check the internet connection. Whether you are surfing the internet on wifi or on a LAN connection, you have to check whether the internet connection is active or not. Look at the symbols in the control panel that you have a working internet. 

On the other side if your system is using a DHCP server then check the assigned IP address, that you are assigned to is linked with or not. Because of some minor crashes, the system fails to identify the user and it stops a valid internet connection right away. If there is a server issue then you must reboot the system to re-establish the connection in order to get back to a working and rejuvenated connection. 

Sometimes after doing the above-said steps the connection still lags so even after rebooting, then in that case do match your assigned IP address and then again go for a reboot.  While we have  listed some of the commands that you can run given below: 

  1.  Netsh int ip reset
  2. Inconfig /flushdns
  3. Ipconfig /release
  4. Netsh winsock  reset
  5. Exit 

In the next step, you need to open the control panel and select the network settings. Right-click on it and go for properties to check the current network adapter. Choose the Internet protocol version 4 and allocate the IPVV4 using the below-mentioned IP address for the Google DNS server : 

DNS server 8.8.8.8

Alternate DNS server 8.8.4.4

To validate the above settings and click ok to proceed. 

Method 2: Check the connection using Proxy 

There are users who use a proxy server or PAC file to access the internet. In proxy settings whenever your Youtube is blocked by proxy then it shows offline whenever you log in to Youtube.com. Therefore you need to make changes in your proxy using the PAC file to resume the access. Perform a restart so that the error prompt  “youre offline check your connection youtube” can be removed. 

Method 3: Remove Browser Cache 

After checking your internet connection is working and still, your system is showing “youtube youre offline check your connection” then you can try this method. With time the temporary files collected in your browser put the streaming of videos on websites such as Youtube at a halt. In order to gain access to the same you have to clear the cache. Follow the steps to clear the cache on the Chrome browser: 

  1. Open Chrome 
  2. Click on the three dots at the top of the right-hand side of your browser. 
  3. Click on more tools and go for clear browsing data. 
  4. Now choose the range as to what items you want to erase and leave from the list. 
  5. Cached files and images and cookies from other websites
  6. Check the desired boxes to clear the data. 
  7. Click Clear data

While for apart from chrome, similar kind of above-mentioned steps can be done for other browsers such as Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, etc. 

Method 4: Update your current browser 

As the tech gets updated with time so does the browser needs to be. The new tech makes the older versions of browsers obsolete as they might compromise the security of the browser. Additionally, it triggers  “youre offline check your connection youtube” prompt followed by blocking internet access on the obsolete version of web browsers. Therefore just update your browser to its latest version and reboot your PC to use Youtube. 

Method 5: Remove any app blocker 

Sometimes users change the settings or install an application to save the data used by the operating system because of limited data by the network provider. Therefore we need to change the settings or remove access to any apps which prohibit the network to work. Restart your pc and start surfing Youtube. 

Method 6: VPN issue 

Many of us use a virtual private network to bypass country-based restrictions and even hide our IP addresses. But this act sometimes restricts users to access Youtube. Most of these issues are reported by users from an It department or institution. In most cases, these places use the data for highly sensitive data as well as security under a strict bandwidth. Therefore to access websites such as Youtube we need to disable any kind of VPN to regain access to your PC. 

Hope using the above steps you have retrieved your Youtube access again from “youtube youre offline check your connection”. Do share your valuable thoughts in the comment below.

If you are an audiophile, adore music and wants to buy wireless headphone but don’t want to go expensive, then this post is for you. Check out an exciting brand “Monoprice” whose Hi-fi 10010 model we recently reviewed below. 

About Monoprice

Monoprice is one of the leading sound electronic companies in the world. They specialised in making high-quality audio devices for professionals. In their portfolio, they have more than 7000 types of devices in multiple categories. With niche quality products and responsive customer support, they are one of the best audio equipment manufacturers in this industry. 

Monoprice 110010  Features

The headphone model Monoprice 110010 is a great option for buyers who want to listen to music casually but don’t want to go deep like professionals. It offers wireless audio with big ear pads for comfortable listening to music. Additionally features such as noise cancellation offers a great option for buyers. But, before buying let’s check the Monoprice 110010 Review 2023 in detail, read it carefully to make your buying decision. 

  1. Audio quality 

For any buyer headphone audio quality is the 1st preference and Monoprice 110010 offers decent music quality. With the 45mm drivers and big comfortable ear pads the experience of listening is enjoyable. While the feature of noise cancellation enhances audio listening in noisy places such as trains, airports, metros, etc. 

While in technicalities the low, mid and high are quite balanced very well and overall don’t bother a normal music lover in any way. For Base lovers, the quality of Base is above average and does its task in a good way. 

  1. Comfort

The Monoprice 110010 model has a snug fitting on our ear, as it goes over the head. The soft cushion of earphones offers a comfy feeling to our ears and even for a long duration you will not fill much discomfort. While we tested the headphone for gaming we found the latency is not much satisfying. For persons with bigger ears, there might be a problem as the ear cups are not big enough for Larger ears. Additionally, there is slight padding required on the headband too. 

Talking about weight, we found it very comfortable. For People who use their headphones daily, it will fit in their usage of everyday music listening very well. 

  1. Battery performance 

In our review, we get quite a long battery life of approximately 52 hours. While playing long games and watching movies using the headphone the battery life will drop by a few hours only. In the worst case, the battery will offer at least two days of battery life therefore with optimum battery life this headphone justifies the price. While the only con we find is the charging time, it takes more than longer for to get fully charged. 

  1. Design and Build quality 

The design of Monoprice 110010 is carefully done as it is quite light in weight and comes very easy to wear for a longer period of time. The material used in making the headphone is made of metal and coated with rubber. The earcups are comfy but for larger ears, it might get uncomfortable. The Placement of buttons are good but lacks tactile feedback, which irritates sometimes such as changing the volume, play-pause and changing tracks. Additionally, there is a 3.5 mm port is given to get a wired connection while an option to connect via Bluetooth is always there too. Overall the weight of 6.3 oz is comfortable for whole-day usage, but only for small and mid-size ear people. 

  1. Noise cancellation performance 

For the people who travel now and then, the feature of ANC (Anti noise cancellation) is a must. Using an array of sensors and mics, headphones phase out any external noise from your ear and you get to listen to a noise-free sound. Similarly in our Monoprice 110010 Review 2023, we found a satisfactory amount of ANC feature that makes the music listening experience better. It actively reduces the noise level and delivers noise-free music. While playing games it also delivers sound with minimum lag timing, which allows a rich gaming experience. 

  1. Water and dust protection 

As per the specs, the Monoprice 110010 does come with dust or water protection such as IP58 & IP64 ratings respectively. This simply means while using it outdoors we need to be careful and keep it away from water and dusty environment. In other words, we should avoid wearing this headphone while workout or any physical activity that results sweating. 

  1. Connectivity

This Monoprice model comes equipped with Bluetooth 4.1 having an optimum range of 32 feet or, 10 metres. The codec from Qualcomm aptX audio delivers high-quality audio through the dedicated app with compatible devices. In our testing, we got a host of customisation features through the aptX native app and get to augment the sound with small tweaks. Therefore with the aptX application, we can unlock the premium crystal clear sound experience. 

  1. Mic performance 

This model comes with an array of mics purposely for noise cancellation and allow us to talk seamlessly without any distortion. Inbuilt mics catch the voice and filter out the noise which helps in gaming, taking calls, online meetings, etc. While testing we get satisfactory mic performance most of the time. 

Final verdict 

Pros: 

  1. Optimal audio performance with bass and midrange 
  2. Comfortable and sturdy design 
  3. Feature packed (ANC, Qualcomm aptX, Bluetooth 4.1, 3.5 mm port )
  4. Good battery life 
  5. Competitive price tag 

Cons: 

  1. No water & dust resistant feature 
  2. Difficult adjustability with the hard band and small earcups. 
  3. Materials used are not long-lasting & started to wear in long run. 
  4. Poor customer support. 

In our Monoprice 10010 review, we found this headphone worthy and justify the price tag. Features such as noise cancellation, Bluetooth 4.1 and a budget price tag make it a worthy competitor with popular brands. For people who are not professional users and want to enjoy music casually then this should be on your buying list. But do check nearby service centres as there might be a chance of non-availiability of customer support in your city.

The 2023 version of Apple MacBook pro 16” is cosmetically similar to its previous 2021, but the real change is inside the hood with might M2 max processor. Apart from the beefy M2 processor, there is no excuse to buy the latest 2023 MacBook pro 16” version. Although if you are excited then there isn’t any reason you will not buy this apple beast laptop. The price of the maxed-out version of 16” inch version is $2500 dollars. Let’s check out the detailed review of the Apple 16 inches MacBook pro. 

Specifications of MacBook Pro 16 inches 

Display 

  • 16.2 inches Liquid Retina XDR display 
  • High refresh rate 120Hz
  • Liquid Retina XDR display. 3456×2234 resolution at 254 PPI density. 

Processor 

  • Apple M2 Max chip
  • 12-core CPU (8 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores)
  • 38-core GPU (Graphics Processing Unit)
  • 16-core Neural Engine
  • Read and write speed 500 Gb/s

Ram 

  • 32 Gb max memory 
  • 1- 8 Tb configurable SSD 

Charging and ports 

  • HDMI 2.1 support 
  • SDXC card slot
  • 1 Magsafe & 3 USB type C Thunderbolt port. 
  • 3.5 mm headphone jack & Thunderbolt 4 port 

The review starts here 

Without any doubt, Apple after launching its in-house developed flagship M series chips for Macbook laptops led in terms of performance worldwide. Compared to its predecessor the M2 max has shown some real muscle in terms of performance and productivity. 

Let’s jump straight to the performance section. 

How is the Performance of 16-inch MacBook pro with M2 max chip inside?

The hefty price tag of $4299 M2 maxed-out model has a 32-core GPU and a 12-core CPU with up to 8 Tb SSD and 64 GB memory. It offers four efficiency cores and eight performance cores inside. 

If you have the maxed-out version of Macbook Pro 2023 then you have a serious powerhouse workstation laptop right on your lap, which will easily surpass most of the powerful desktops out there. In other words, you can say that it can easily replace your professional or heavy workloads on this overkill M2 max chip machine. 

Undoubtedly spending a premium price on this device you can easily own a machine with an excessive killer performance. In our review, we found a huge leap of 30% in GPU performance and a 20% rise in CPU performance. 

The performance is clearly seen in the Geekbench score which was 2058, an exceptional one. Whereas the multicore score of M2 max on Geekbench was 15,262. 

For comparison check out the chart given below.

Chip model Single core performance Multicore performanc
Intel i9 MBP1,0786,787
Apple M1 Max 1,78812,806
Apple 28 core Mac Pro 1,51220,036
Apple M2 MAX2,05815,262

Other benchmark results 

We can clearly see from the chart that there is a significant rise in performance from the previous versions and well as other flagship chips from other manufacturers. 

In other words, you can say that the M2 max is almost 4х times faster than the M1 max chip. Additionally, the performance of video editing applications such as Final Cut Pro it simply destroys the competition and processes the video without any delay. The post-processing of heavy files of raw 8k formats are completed without any sweat in the least possible time. 

Talking about daily life performance it does all the tasks like a cakewalk. The applications open instantly, and scrolling down of web pages is smooth. Therefore for everyday non-demanding tasks, the M2 max chip is overkill in most cases. 

Design and Build Quality 

With the most aesthetic yet simplistic design language that apple followed is continued with the Apple MacBook Pro M2 max version too. The bright display with a larger trackpad, aluminium body with thin bezels and weight of 2.45 kgs is much praised by us as well as the pro customers. The design language follows a boxy yet easily comfortable design. 

With a magic keyboard and squared-up keys the typing experience is great too. Removing the touch bar in the 2023 version is a great job by the Apple design engineers, they also added full-size function keys to improve the productivity experience at its best. With the touch ID embedded in the power button, it becomes so easy to login with just a single press with fingerprint login. 

The 140 Watt USB C power adapter and cable with Magsafe pin easily fill the juice of this laptop in the least possible time. Whereas the weight is only 2.7 kgs which is comparatively significantly lesser than Windows competitor machines. We didn’t feel any issue in terms of daily usage and design of this laptop. 

Display 

The display of the MacBook Pro 16” M2 max version is the most gorgeous display for a laptop. It is a true-tone Liquid retina XDR display. The colour production is accurate and displays true tone vibrant natural pictures on the screen. With the addition of apple promotion having a 120 Hz high refresh display augments the user experience. While professional work such as colour grading, printing and design production on the gorgeous screen are accomplished with high accuracy. The screen offers a pixel density of 250 PPI and 1600 nits peak brightness. 

While if we nitpick the cons then we found some issues with this pro display. The first is the ugly notch, it could have managed to ignore the notch or made the camera cutout so small to ignore it. However, after using few hours you will hardly feel any disruption from the notch. 

Second, the camera cutout slightly hampers the full experience of menu bars and taking video calls using the Facetime camera. 

Miscellaneous features 

With the MacBook Pro model, Apple has a host of ports for the users. There are 3 Thunderbolt 4 ports, 1 SDXC port for high-speed memory cards, an HDMI port with HDMI 2.1 support, a Magsafe 3 charger for an easy magnetic charging dock and high quality 3.5 mm jack. Eventually the ports especially the 3.5 mm jack brings a smile on the face of power users.

Additionally, futureproof connectivity features such as WIFI 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 keep customers more productive at an ultra-fast pace. Crispy 6 speakers with 3 dedicated mics keep our facetime call and entertainment purposes fully satisfied. 

Our verdict 

We have reviewed many laptops but the Apple MacBook Pro 16 inches having M2 Max inside produces a mammoth power for most users. In other words, we can say that this raw power of the M2 Max chip possesses the potential to beat large Dekstop-level workstations in most cases. While with elegant aesthetics and a beastly chip inside this laptop impressed us. While the 4 efficiency cores make sure that for normal usage you get enough juice to surpass an entire day without charge. 

The Bottom line is that if you are someone who doesn’t care about money and desires a full workstation in your lap then the Apple MacBook Pro M2 max is for you. But if you already have the 2022 version of the MacBook pro then it’s useless to spend so much money. Finally, we need to say that this machine is more than you need for your professional-level productivity tasks.

From the title, it might sound shocking but it might be true regarding the Chat GPT popularity around the globe. You can say that Google has some sort of monopoly regarding search results and other internet-based services such as email, maps, Youtube, etc. But with the advent of  Artificial intelligence tools, Google’s engineers’ road might not be easy. As the platform called OpenAI, a mixture of artificial intelligence and machine learning has become a potent threat 

As per the New York Times report, Larry Page and Sergey Brin are seriously discussing ChatGPT. They are planning to launch a range of their total 20 AI products and services this year. Additionally, you will see a chatbot feature in the coming months. 

The rising popularity and abilities of ChatGPT, an open AI chatbot platform by the company called OpenAI has left shockwaves in the Arena of Google Engineers. As per the NYT, they are very keen to demonstrate their AI abilities in forthcoming services and might launch a dedicated ChatGPT competitor. Additionally, there are a total number of 20 projects that are going to be launched this year. 

The report states that the management team of google engineers is somehow stressed with immense investment in research and development in artificial intelligence and machine learning, OpenAI platform ChatGPT increasing immense momentum around the globe. This is created a huge toll on the reputation of the research and development of Google. While on the other side with heavy inflation they are about to lay off more than 12,000 employees this year. At the same time, they want to create a dominant product that can crush other existing chatbot competitors in the market. 

The timeline for the launching of the AI products is disclosed yet. But as per the internal development, we can see the launch of exciting products and services such as feature-rich Google Glass and Duplex. Google Glass is AR-based glass that is an amalgamation of  Google technology with Augmented reality to create a 3D view of google services in the real world. Duplex, it is Google technology that works on AI to schedule and become your virtual assistant to perform specific high-productivity tasks. 

Larry and Sergey back in Action 

In the latest NYT report, it is found that Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who were on unofficial holiday from google management are proactively discussing ChatGPT with their parent company Alphabet Board members. They have discussed and added their crucial advice with an upcoming meeting of google officials with ChatGPt executives too. The re-engagement of the major owners of google clearly expresses the urge among the founders who are somewhere rattled by the exceptional capabilities of ChatGPT in the real world. It is said that after 2019 Google IO both of them left all responsibilities upon Sundar Pichai and were enjoying their life fully, but Open AI has become a major catalyst for Larry and Sergey back in Action at Alphabet Headquarters. 

Addressing the facts right 

Google wants to get an extra edge by providing factually correct by removing all misleading information and curating the correct information only. In other words, they are more concerned about factual information with a rapid review process. 

Conclusion 

The presence and popularity of ChatGPT, a programme of the OpenAI platform has created havoc in Google;’s dominant territory. Therefore the company is reshuffling its strategies to tackle the upcoming challenges in the field of machine learning and artificial intelligence. Therefore it will be exciting to watch how Google, a tech giant will give competition with ChatGPT and other competitors to prove its dominance. 

While it is highly threatening at the same time when Microsoft, a tech giant also keen to invest heavily about $10 Billion in OpenAI, the owner of ChatGPT. It will super exciting to watch how mega companies will shape our daily life with revolutionary technologies.
