Borderless nubia Z18 is up for sale

Image
After a problematic first half for ZTE, the company and its subsidiary nubia finally launched the Z18 flagship earlier this month.

Initial tests show iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max have significantly better LTE speeds

Image
For the past year or so, a common theme has been that many high end Snapdragon devices performed with better LTE speeds when compared to what the iPhone X was able to put through. Today, speed test service SpeedSmart has released initial iPhone XS LTE speed tests compared to the 2017 iPhone X's and the difference is quite significant. The new iPhone XS and XS Max have a new modem that support 4X4 MIMO antennas for a stronger more stable connection.

Samsung's latest security update for September 2018 includes a new camera feature for Samsung Galaxy S8 devices. Super Slow Motion is mentioned in the OTA's changelog as well as Google's monthly security patches.

Google might release a pink Pixel 3

Just last week, Google's Japanese site launched a "Coming soon" teaser page showing three possible color options for the Pixel 3. One white with mint accents, one mind-colored, and a black one with white accents. Well, according to a new discovery in the website's source code, a fourth color option could be plausible.

ZTE nubia Z18S shown on video with a second screen on its back

Image
The ZTE nubia Z18 was unveiled earlier this month with a 91.8% screen-to-body ratio - that's a lot of screen. But it's just one screen. If this video that shows the nubia Z18S is to be believed, a two-screen model is in the works. The second screen is on the rear and is much larger than what the Meizu Pro 7 had. It's large enough to run the full UI of the phone. The main benefit of that is that you can use the full camera app and get a huge viewfinder. As you may have noticed, there's no notch on the front display and, in fact, no selfie camera. Why bother when there's a capable dual... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2PI1E7S via IFTTT

Analyst: People are buying the iPhone XS Max but not the XS, will buy XR the most

Image
Apple's opening weekend pre-orders for the iPhone XS, XS Max and Apple Watch Series 4 are now done and analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has some insight as to what's hot and what's not. In a note to investors Kuo discloses that the reception for the iPhone XS Max was great, as expected, but the demand for the 5.8-inch iPhone XS is lower than previously projected. Kuo expects the iPhone XS Max to account for 25-30% of all new iPhone sales and has pushed back the iPhone XS to 10-15% share. Kuo expects the iPhone XR to grab 55-60% of the sales, once it gets to market in October. The iPhone XS... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2D4LW50 via IFTTT

Huawei Mate 20 Pro case hints at in-display fingerprint reader, stereo speakers

Image
Cases for the Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro show that the company may keep the 3.5mm headphone jack. The cases for both models seem to have a hole dedicated to it and it's not just that. Both have two holes on top - one presumably for a mic, the other most likely for an IR blaster (the P20 phones have IR). Huawei Mate 20 Pro case (alleged) The square camera hole is quite distinctive, but the Mate 20 case extends that hole as if to accommodate a fingerprint reader while the Mate 20 Pro case does not.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro handled on video, still isn't official

Image
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro is getting the Pixel treatment - a detailed video hands-on has been published before Xiaomi has officially unveiled the phone. The auto-generated English subtitles are not great, but one AnTuTu screen is worth a thousand words. The chipset is a Snapdragon 636, not 660 as earlier rumors suggested, and it runs MIUI based on Android 8.1 Oreo. It's not the faster chipset, but it's more of an endurance runner thanks to the 4,000mAh battery as seen on the box. The 6.26" screen has a 1,080 x 2,280px resolution and a notch.

Image
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the emir of Qatar gave a luxury jumbo jet as a "gift" to Turkey, rejecting opposition claims the plane had been bought in a costly purchase for the presidency. In comments published Monday, Erdogan said Turkey had shown interest in buying the on-sale Boeing 747-8 plane -- reportedly worth around $400 million -- but Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani insisted on offering the plane as a gift.

South Korean president jets to Pyongyang for 'heart-to-heart' nuclear talks with Kim Jong-un

Image
Moon Jae-in, South Korea’s president, will seek to revive stalled talks on nuclear disarmament between the US and North Korea when he jets into Pyongyang on Tuesday morning for a three-day summit with Kim Jong-un. Mr Moon will be the first South Korean leader to visit North Korea’s capital in 11 years and he will be accompanied by an entourage of  senior business executives and K-pop stars as he attempts to bolster economic, cultural and security ties.  He is expected to land at 10am (2am BST), and may be greeted personally by Kim at the airport before proceeding to the negotiating table and a banquet in the evening.  On the eve of his departure for his third direct meeting with Kim this year, Mr Moon pledged to hold “heart-to-heart talks” to push for better ties between Pyongyang and Washington.  “What I want to achieve is peace. I mean irreversible, permanent peace that is not shaken by international politics,” Mr Moon said during a meeting with top advisers, according to his office.

Volvo asks US government for tariff exemption for China-built XC60 crossover SUV

Image
Volvo is the latest automaker to ask the U.S. government for an exemption from steep tariffs on Chinese-made SUVs, Reuters reported Friday. Buick asked trade officials in July for an exemption from a 25-percent tariff on its China-made Envision SUV earlier this year, although Volvo's interest in seeking relief from the measure is far greater. In August, the XC60 accounted for more than 31 percent of overall sales for Volvo, according to the automaker. Since May, the U.S. has imported most of its Volvo XC60 models from China, although the automaker originally imported them from its factory in Sweden when the car was launched. Unlike Buick, which petitioned for an exemption for 40,000 of its China-built Envision crossover, Volvo is seeking an unlimited exemption for XC60 crossovers built in China, according to Reuters.  Earlier this year, Volvo opened its first North American production facility near Charleston, S.C., where it builds the S60 sedan and eventually the XC90 full-size cr

Texas set to eliminate Hillary Clinton from required state curriculum

Image
The Texas Board of Education has voted to eliminate Hillary Clinton and other historical figures from the required curriculum in an effort to “streamline” lessons. The vote does not prevent educators from teaching about Ms Clinton, deaf-blind activist Helen Keller, and Republican Barry Goldwater who was the first Jewish presidential candidate, but it is no longer compulsory for the state’s 5.4 million public school students to learn about them. The final vote on the matter is set to take place in November after a period of public consultation. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://ift.tt/2NTgYRS via Latest News
