Weekly poll results: 5G unlikely to explode this year, as network coverage remains limited

Image
When we asked you last week if you're considering a 5G phone purchase, we had a solid ground to step on - manufacturers are outing phones in Europe, carriers are turning on their 5G antennas and there are 5G modems in the pipeline as well. Turns out this is neat in theory, but in practice many of you won't get to experience 5G in full anytime soon, so they'd be perfectly okay with a 4G smartphone. A lot of people were wondering what do you even do with 5G connectivity that you can't do with 4G? Well, aside from the bandwidth increase from 100 Mbps to 1Gbps, you get less lag, which... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2Lp0jpf via IFTTT

Xiaomi is officially launching the Redmi Note 7 in the UK

Image
Xiaomi's Western expansion might not be as dynamic and eventful as its work in the Chinese and India markets, but it's still an impressive slow and steady effort. After all, European markets are hard to penetrate with all their requirements, certifications, taxes and the sheer fact that the smartphone scene is so over-saturated. All of this makes Xiaomi's efforts all that more impressive. After managing to finally bring the Mi 9 flagship to the UK a few days ago, the Chinese giant has now announced that the budget Redmi Note 7 will soon be joining its ranks.

Samsung is working on an under-display camera solution, aiming for the coveted all-display phone design

Regardless of where you stand on the whole display notch/hole debate, pretty much all of us can unanimously agree that having no pieces missing from the gorgeous panel on you fancy new phone is intrinsically better than the alternative. Frankly on today's frantic tech scene and especially amid the ongoing under-display fingerprint revolution it never took a lot of foresight to see that cutting out parts of smartphone displays was merely a stepping stone. One necessary until technology catches up.

The Huawei P Smart Z that leaked last week was briefly listed on Amazon Italy with its price and specifications. The P Smart Z was rumored to carry a price tag of €210, but its Amazon listing reveals that the phone will be priced at €279. The specifications that surfaced last week have also been confirmed by this e-commerce giant, which include Kirin 710 SoC, 4GB RAM, and a 6.59-inch FHD+ display.

Redmi confirms its upcoming flagship will have an ultrawide camera, 3.5mm jack and NFC

Thankfully, he is quite active on social media and willing to interact with fans. That's precisely how the latest revelation of an ultrawide camera on the phone came about.

vivo S1 Pro goes official with Snapdragon 675 SoC and a 32MP pop-up selfie camera

Back in late March, vivo unveiled the S1 with a Helio P70 SoC and a 24.8MP elevating selfie camera. Now, the Chinese phone maker has announced its Pro variant with better hardware. The vivo S1 Pro looks similar to the non-Pro model, but it has a Snapdragon 675 SoC under the hood, paired with 6GB or 8GB RAM. The former comes with 256GB of storage whereas the latter has 128GB of storage onboard. This, honestly, is a weird memory combo.

Amidst the ongoing major battle on the video streaming scene it is often easy to overlook its music streaming counterpart.

By all accounts, the latter top-dog finds itself in a rather favourable position, recently breaking the 100 million mark in Premium subscribers.

A detailed specs sheet of this smartphone leaked two days ago, and now, its India pricing has also surfaced online. This information comes to us from Ishan Agarwal who's been pretty reliable with the leaks so far. According to him, the 6GB/128GB model of the OnePlus 7 Pro will cost INR49,999 ($723), whereas the 8GB/256GB version will be priced at INR52,999 ($766).

This video shows off the dedicated Google Assistant button on the Nokia 4.2 which is located on the left side of the phone.

Unknown HTC device appears in GeekBench with MediaTek CPU and 6GB RAM

Image
Back in December, HTC announced that it was going to change up its smartphone strategy for 2019. Part of that strategy is extending the life-cycle of the HTC U12+ and U12 Life. It also vowed to focus on flagship and midrange smartphones for this year. A new listing appeared on GeekBench for an unknown HTC device running a MediaTek Helio P35 paired with 6GB RAM. The device has a model number HTC 2Q741 and runs Android 9 Pie. We wonder if this could be an upcoming mid-range smartphone from HTC.

OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro won't have an IP rating for water and dust resistance because it's expensive

Image
OnePlus is continuing its relentless teaser campaign for its soon to be launched OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro smartphones, and today's installment is... odd. The company has done its fair share of irreverent marketing in the past, but this is something else. So, you may be aware that one of the features that is found in practically all of the more expensive competitors to OnePlus devices is an IP rating for water and dust resistance.

Last month there were mumblings about T-Mobile soon starting sales of the Pixel 3 and 3 XL, as well as the yet-unannounced Pixel 3a and 3a XL. And today a purported leak of an internal document from a Sprint store somewhere in the US clearly shows that it will get a retail display fixture at some point in the future, for the Pixel 3 XL.

'I will never hesitate' to fly in a 737 MAX, Warren Buffett declares

Billionaire Warren Buffett, one of the world's most influential businessmen, said Saturday that he would not hesitate to fly in a Boeing 737 Max airplane, despite the grounding of the planes after two fatal crashes. "I will never hesitate even for a second to fly on a 737 MAX," he said in response to a question from AFP on the sidelines of the annual shareholder meeting of his Berkshire Hathaway empire in Omaha. While Buffett, the world's third-richest man, owns stakes in several of the most prestigious American companies -- from Coca-Cola to JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs to Apple and, recently, Amazon -- he holds no shares in Boeing, though he has invested in airlines. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2H0RL22 via Latest News

Israel retaliates after more than 150 rockets fired from Gaza

Image
An Israeli man was killed overnight after a rocket from the Gaza Strip struck the city of Ashkelon, police and media said Sunday. Police said the man died from critical wounds suffered in the rocket strike after being taken to hospital. Israeli media identified the man as Moshe Agadi, 60, and said the rocket hit the Israeli's home in the city near the Gaza border. He was the first Israeli killed in the flare-up of violence that began Saturday, with one Palestinian killed earlier in the day as the fragile ceasefire again faltered. More than 250 rockets have been fired at Israel from the Gaza Strip since Saturday, Israel's military says, and Israel has responded with air and tank strikes. On Saturday one woman was seriously injured in a rocket strike on the Israeli city of Kiryat Gat, some 20 kilometres (13 miles) from the Gaza border, police said. The Gaza health ministry reported one person killed and seven wounded. An Israeli airstrike hits Gaza City on Saturday in ...

Sri Lanka attack mastermind used chatrooms to sway suicide bombers

Image
While Sri Lanka Easter suicide attacks mastermind Zahran Hashim used social media to publicly call for the death of non-Muslims, he worked for months in private chatrooms to persuade six young men to sacrifice themselves, Muslim community leaders say. Christians and foreign tourists were badly hit in the attacks on three churches and three hotels that killed 257 people, but Sri Lanka's Muslim community has also been badly scarred and has been looking into the backgrounds of Hashim and his jihadist acolytes. Hashim, who died in an attack on the Shangri-La hotel on April 21, inspired wealthy brothers Ilham Ibrahim and Inshaf Ibrahim to join and bankroll his assault, police and fellow Muslims said. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2Vaw1uK via Latest News

One Venezuelan protester's brush with death

Image
Luis Alejandro had joined a protest outside 'La Carlota' military base in Caracas after opposition leader Juan Guaido called on Venezuelans to support the "final phase" of his effort to remove President Nicolas Maduro from office. A series of Reuters photographs shows the 26-year-old business manager being hit and run over by the armored personnel carrier. Reuters photographer Ueslei Marcelino was at La Carlota and captured the images of Luis Alejandro as he was dragged under the fast-moving Chinese-built VN-4 armored personnel carrier, known as the "Rhinoceros." "I was watching and couldn't believe it," said Marcelino, who also snapped pictures of the vehicle picking up dust with a shoe flying in the air as it passed over Luis Alejandro's body. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2Y5HY1M via Latest News

The U.S. Air Force Destroyed North Korea (And It Terrifies Kim Jong Un)

Image
Can the United States and North Korea arrive at a deal—any deal—on denuclearization, normalization of relations, or at the very least a nuclear freeze? Given the holding pattern in nuclear diplomacy since the second summit between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un in Hanoi, the prospects don’t appear particularly bright.The hold-up in the talks, however, is not simply the product of personality clashes, maximalist negotiating positions, and incongruent objectives between Washington and Pyongyang. History also has a lot to do with it.While the Korean War may have ended in an armistice sixty-six years ago this July, memories from that extremely bloody conflict are never far from the minds of North Koreans. While the three-year-war for control of the Korean Peninsula doesn’t get sufficient attention in the United States, it is literally the seminal moment in North Korea’s young history as a state. It was a merciless campaign on all sides, with tens of thousands of Americans, hundreds of thousa...

EU's Tusk warns of risks in rise of U.S. tech giants

The world needs to be wary of the rise of tech giants such as Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon, comparing their powers to those of countries such as China, European Council President Donald Tusk said in Warsaw on Friday. "In the East, we see the rise of those capable of controlling everyone's behavior, and in the West we've seen the rise of an uncontrolled, spontaneous empire," Tusk said in Warsaw in reference to the companies during a speech marking Constitution Day. The European Union has been in the forefront of efforts to tighten control on how social media companies handle the personal data of consumers, with rules introduced last May giving regulators the power to impose fines of up to 4 percent of global revenue for violations. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2H0yEXd via Latest News

Donald Trump responds as North Korea fires short-range missile test

Image
US President Donald Trump voiced confidence Saturday that North Korea's Kim Jong-un would not "break his promise," after South Korea said Pyongyang had launched several unidentified projectiles into the sea. "Anything in this very interesting world is possible, but I believe that Kim Jong Un fully realizes the great economic potential of North Korea, & will do nothing to interfere or end it," Trump tweeted. "He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me. Deal will happen!" added the US president, in response to what could be Pyongyang's first short-range missile launch for more than a year. The tests were the first missile launch since 2017 as it steps up pressure against Washington after a failed nuclear summit. The North fired an unidentified short-range missile from the city of Wonsan around 9am (0000 GMT), South Korea's Office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement.

UK's Vectura wins patent infringement case against GlaxoSmithKline in U.S

British drugmaker Vectura Group Plc said on Saturday that it won a patent infringement litigation case against GlaxoSmithKline Plc in the United States and has been awarded $89.7 million in damages for the period from August 2016 through December 2018. A jury trial in a Delaware district court on Friday found that one of Vectura's U.S. patents was infringed by sales of three of GSK's Ellipta products in the United States, Vectura said. The jury found that GSK, which is also a UK-based pharmaceutical company, willfully infringed the patent, which Vectura said gives it the right to seek enhanced damages. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2V4wrxD via Latest News
