Asus Zenfone 4 Max and Zenfone 4 Selfie get a taste of Android 9 Pie through beta builds

Image
With the newly launched Zenfone 6, Asus has completely revamped its ZenUI Android skin, making it among the lightest out there - whereas before it was quite heavy on the customizations. This signifies an interesting strategy change for the company, which seems to be embracing a OnePlus-like philosophy now, when it comes to software. That said, the new ZenUI 6 still isn't "stock Android" per se. On the other hand, Asus has outed a beta build of Android 9 Pie for the Zenfone 4 Max ZC554KL and the Zenfone 4 Selfie (both ZB553KL and ZD553KL models).

Fujifilm GFX100 is a $10,000 medium format camera with 102MP sensor

Fujifilm has announced a new medium format camera. Called the GFX100, this new body comes with a 102MP sensor, built-in image stabilization, phase detection AF and 4K video recording. At the heart of this beast is the new 102MP 55mm medium format sensor. A medium format sensor sits between the standard 35mm full frame sensor and a large format sensor. These sensors are normally used in cameras that have much more professional applications and often required for printing on a massive scale, such as for billboards.

TSMC will continue making chips for Huawei

Image
Huawei's HiSilicon subsidiary is fabbing its chipsets and modems at the TSMC foundries and it will continue to do so. A TSMC spokesperson said that the company will continue working with Huawei, despite many others cutting ties. Among them is ARM. The Kirin chipsets use ARM designs for both the CPU (Cortex) and GPU (Mali), so this is a huge blow. However, HiSilicon should still be able to produce current models and perhaps even the next chipset in the pipeline. A source at ARM told the BBC that the Kirin 985 should be unaffected by the ban.

Google's latest ad reminds you the Pixel 3a 'Is Google' while iPhone 'Has Google'

Google's Pixel 3a/3a XL phones recently came out and they bring the Pixel experience at a lower price. That means mostly the same as a Pixel 3/3 XL (including the widely-renowned main camera) at half the price. But Google's latest ads for the Pixel 3a shine a light that the Pixel 3a also costs less than half as much as an iPhone XS , claiming that Phone X "Has Google" for $999 while Pixel 3a "Is Google" for $399.

United States pushes South Korea to ditch Huawei products

The United States has no plan to stop its crusade against Huawei to get what it wants from China in the ongoing trade war. Reuters reported that a US State Department official said in a meeting with fellow South Korean that LG Uplus shouldn't serve in sensitive areas, because the carrier uses Huawei equipment.

The FCC listing doesn't reveal any hardware details about the A10e, but the obtaining of certification does hint at an imminent launch. The Galaxy A10e will be a more affordable version of the Galaxy A10, so you can expect it to come with a less powerful processor along with a smaller screen and battery.

Redmi K20 will come with DC Dimming and Game Turbo 2.0

The Redmi K20 will come with an AMOLED display, and these panels are known to flicker at low brightness settings. This happens due to the use of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to control the screen brightness. So, to deal with this issue, Redmi will use the DC Dimming method on the K20.

Nevada removes abortion restrictions amid wave of nationwide bans

Image
Nevada has passed comprehensive legislation to remove a series of restrictive statewide abortion guidelines, defying a wave of newly-imposed limits and bans towards women’s reproductive health across the country. The new measure, which passed 27-13 in the state Assembly on Tuesday, will overturn decades-old policies requiring physicians to determine a woman’s age and marital status prior to performing an abortion. Supplying medication to induce an abortion without prior advice from a doctor will also be decriminalized under the new bill. Women will also no longer have to be told about “physical and emotional implications” that could possibly result from having an abortion — a policy critics have said was implemented to effectively deter women from ever receiving the procedure. While one of the nation’s most restrictive laws was passed recently in Alabama — with only male politicians voting in favour of the bill — Nevada’s majority-female state legislature passed the measure mostly alon...

The U.S. Justice Department's antitrust division staff has recommended the agency block T-Mobile US Inc's $26 billion acquisition of smaller rival Sprint Corp, according to two sources familiar with the matter. While Justice Department staff balked at the merger, the Federal Communications Commission indicated on Monday it had reached an agreement in principle with the companies to allow the deal after the companies agreed to sell Sprint's prepaid brand Boost Mobile. The final decision on whether to allow two of the four nationwide wireless carriers to merge now lies with political appointees at the department, headed by antitrust division chief Makan Delrahim. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2YJGniE via Latest News

The Nike indictment concerns charges announced in March that Avenatti tried to extort more than $20 million from the athletic wear company by threatening to expose what he called its improper payments to recruits for college basketball teams it sponsored. Avenatti also faces dozens of charges in southern California, where prosecutors on April 11 accused him of stealing millions of dollars from clients to pay for personal and business expenses, and lying to the Internal Revenue Service and a Mississippi bank about his finances. If convicted on all charges, Avenatti could face more than 400 years in prison, but would likely face a lesser punishment. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2YNsCzt via Latest News
