vivo X23 photographed in the wild again, looks like the vivo V11 Pro

Image
Our first glimpse of the vivo X23 was at an awkward angle that didn't let us appreciate the phone's design. Here's a better look. The top of the phone features the trendy new "water drop" notch design and - assuming the photos haven't been retouched - there's no chin. Also, check out the back and the way it reflects the light. It's supposed to feature a color gradient, though you can't quite see it in the photos. (Alleged) vivo X23 live photos The vivo X23 should launch on August 20 with a 6.4" display, a 3D face scanner (ToF) and an in-display fingerprint reader (which you... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2BmBncW via IFTTT

OnePlus 6T to be offered by T-Mobile, arriving in October likely priced from $550

Image
Earlier this year OnePlus CEO Pete Lau said his company was working on having its smartphones sold by US carriers. And it now looks like the first carrier partnership will be with T-Mobile. The magenta carrier is set to offer the upcoming OnePlus 6T in the States, according to a new report sourced from "people familiar with the launch plans". T-Mobile will be the only carrier selling the OnePlus 6T in the US. Still, one carrier is better than no carrier, maybe more will join for the OnePlus 7 if all goes smoothly. Regardless of that, being offered by one of the 'big four' in the US should... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2BkBu8D via IFTTT

Huawei Mate 20 Lite and its Kirin 710 chipset benchmarked

Image
The Huawei Mate 20 Lite will be powered by a Kirin 710 chipset, the second phone after the nova 3i. Despite numerous leaks, the chipset wasn't named explicitly but specs by TENAA and these Geekbench results pretty much confirm it. The single-threaded performance is equal between the Mate 20 Lite and the nova 3i (the other Kirin 710 phone). There is a gap in the multi-threaded score, but that could be due to the pre-release status of the software.

How a US coffee shop sparked a diplomatic standoff between China and Taiwan

Image
A bakery in California has found itself at the centre of an international storm after it welcomed the president of Taiwan with a cup of coffee and a goody bag. The result was a major diplomatic incident as Chinese customers launched a boycott of the 85C Bakery Cafe, which rapidly disappeared from online ordering platforms on the Chinese mainland.  The episode highlight's Beijing's sensitivity over an island that considers itself a sovereign state, but has never declared formal independence.  The Taiwanese-owned chain apologised and distanced itself from the views of Tsai Ing-wen, the pro-independence leader of the island, after she dropped in on Wednesday en route to visiting allies in South America.  Excited staff gave her a gift bag and took selfies, as images were uploaded to Facebook by part of her delegation.

Tesla board reportedly seeking No. 2 executive to assist Elon Musk

Image
In the wide-ranging interview, Musk acknowledged that his tweet last week about having "funding secured" to take Tesla private was not cleared by anyone else, including Tesla's board. The Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating the tweet, which bumped up Tesla's stock price, to determine whether it constitutes stock manipulation. Musk's admission that it was not vetted by board members may give ammunition to investigators, but it also points out the burden of running such a large, prominent public company, and the potential consequences of haste, pressure, and naivete from a CEO. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2Bp8P2u via Latest News

Deadly, 40,000-foot fire tornado revealed in new videos

Image
Harrowing new footage released by California's firefighting agency Cal Fire reveals the massive fire tornado that led to the death of a firefighter on July 26. The fire tornado was part of the Carr Fire that's engulfed 223,610 acres of land in Northern California so far. A report from Cal Fire breaks down the details surrounding the fiery phenomenon. SEE ALSO: A fire tornado hit California. Here's how it happened. Per the report, the tornado "was a large rotating fire plume that was roughly 1,000 feet in diameter at its base" and managed to reach a height of 40,000 feet.  In late July, we covered news of a fire tornado in the area on the evening of July 26. It's unclear whether the fire tornado in the report is the same as the one that garnered media attention at the time, according to Cal Fire.  "Observations from witnesses and other evidence suggest that either several fire tornados occurred at different locations and times, or one fire tornado formed a...
