The Indian e-store of vivo has silently posted a new phone - vivo Y15. It is quite similar to the already announced vivo Y17 but comes with a Helio P22 chipset and just 64 GB storage, making company to the 4 GB RAM. The phone comes with a big 6.35" LCD panel with HD+ resolution and a waterdrop notch. The selfie shooter is 16 MP, a downgrade from the global vivo Y17 (although it has the same sensor in China, where the device is marketed as vivo Y3).

The next iPhones could support streaming audio to two Bluetooth accessories at the same time

Image
A new rumor today claims Apple is going to introduce yet another new feature when it launches this year's iPhones in the fall, and it's one that Samsung flagships have had since the Galaxy S8. Samsung calls it Dual Audio and what it does is easy: allow you to stream audio to two Bluetooth accessories at the same time. A lot of smartphones can connect to two accessories at the same time, but those accessories have to be using different Bluetooth profiles. So you can have two headphones connected, for example, but use one only for calls and one only for media. Apple is reportedly... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2HF8WIk via IFTTT

Once installed, it will improve the performance of both Super Night Mode and HDR++ (aka HDR+ Enhanced mode) in the camera, resulting in better image quality and faster image processing speed.

As they say - but wait, there's more! According to Blass' April tweet, a Motorola One Action was also in the pipeline, and today he updated the list to add the Motorola One Pro.

HTC U11 finally starts receiving Android 9 Pie update

Image
Earlier this month HTC shared some timelines for its Android 9 Pie updates, which have been very late - if you don't count the U11 Life's, and you shouldn't because that's part of the Android One program which handles things differently, with more control from Google over updates. HTC then promised to deliver the goods to the U11 first, by the end of this month. And here we are today, when the rollout has indeed started. The big caveat here is that the update to Pie for the U11 is currently only available in HTC's home market, namely Taiwan.

Asus announces Zenfone 6 Edition 30 with 12GB of RAM, 512GB of storage

Given Asus' past antics, involving multiple variations of handsets that all had the same name, we were pretty surprised to learn that there's only one Zenfone 6 when it made its global debut a couple of weeks ago. If you too were rooting for another variant of the phone to become official, today the company has delivered. Meet the Asus Zenfone 6 Edition 30, just unveiled at Computex in Taiwan. To be fair, it's not just a differently specced version that will be sold under the same name, so Asus isn't actually going back to its old tropes.

Factbox: EU vote - the domestic fall-out across Europe

European Parliament elections not only determine the make-up of the next EU assembly and help decide who ends up running top European institutions but can also play back into the national politics of the bloc's 28 member states. Here is a run-down of some of those national stakes after polls closed on Sunday and exit polls and early results came in: FRANCE: Emmanuel Macron's allies put on a brave face as exit polls showed a narrow defeat at the hands of Marine Le Pen's far-right Rassemblement National party. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2EAmdzK via Latest News

EU Seeks to Break U.S. Stranglehold on WTO 

Trade ministers from the 28-nation European Union are expected to start the process of negotiating an interim solution if the adjudicative body of the WTO becomes hamstrung, as is expected later this year, according to internal documents seen by Bloomberg. The U.S. is blocking new appointees to the seven-member WTO appellate body, which will lead to it being incapacitated in December because there won’t be enough judges to issue rulings. The EU is seeking to implement an arbitration process that would continue the “essential principles and features’’ of the appellate body, according to the memo. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2ECbipl via Latest News

Impeachment talk is rising among Democrats. Nancy Pelosi is right to shut it down

Image
Opening an impeachment inquiry would start a process many Americans would see as an attempt to circumvent the 2020 election ‘Attempting to short-circuit the 2020 election would harm America’s democracy, not enhance it.’ Photograph: J Scott Applewhite/APUpon taking control of Congress in 2006, House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi declared that impeachment of then-President George W Bush was “off the table.”Her remarks dismayed many critics of Bush, who continued to press Pelosi and other Democratic leaders to pursue impeachment against the Republican president. They pointed to the Bush administration’s warrantless surveillance, the illegal war in Iraq, and the use of torture.Articles of impeachment were authored by Ohio Democratic Representative Dennis Kucinich, who netted a small group of co-sponsors for his resolution. But as we all know, no impeachment proceedings were ever launched against Bush, and the administration’s officials escaped any accountability from its successors. Presi...

EU election results analysis: How the Brexit Party won the most UK seats

Image
Nigel Farage's Brexit Party has won the most UK seats in the European elections, with 28 of their candidates elected across the country compared to Labour's 10 and the Tories' three. Just under a third of voters backed the Brexit Party while the Conservatives slumped to their lowest share of the vote ever in a national ballot.  This pattern fits into a continent-wide trend of traditionally large parties taking a hit, with smaller outfits gaining support. It has resulted in the two large establishment blocs in the European Parliament losing their combined majority under rising populist and liberal support. Labour, as well as the Conservatives, lost ground with the pro-Remain Lib Dems and Greens picking up seats alongside the pro-Brexit Brexit Party. The Lib Dems ended up in second place in the UK, while the Greens managed to top the Conservatives nationally.  European election: UK results The Brexit Party gained seats across the coun...

Huawei founder: Without Apple, ‘we would not see the beauty of this world’

As calls have mounted in China for the central government to officially retaliate against Apple as a way to strike back over US trade tensions and over the increasing ostracization of Huawei, the billionaire founder of one of China's leading consumer electronics brands insists he's squarely against going that route.In a new interview with Bloomberg, Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei was effusive in his praise of the iPhone maker, describing Apple per a translation of his remarks as "my teacher" and that "As a student, why should I oppose my teacher? I would never do that.""Apple is the world's leading company," Zhengfei continued during the interview, which also touched on the emergency maneuvers Huawei is taking to deal with being cut off from smartphone component suppliers, as well as from Google. "If there were no Apple, there would be no mobile internet. If there was no Apple to help show us the world, we would not see the beauty of this wor...

Houthi leader says drone attacks a response to spurned Yemen peace moves

Image
Mohammed Ali al-Houthi dismissed Saudi accusations that the attacks had been carried out on the orders on Iran - at a time of growing tension between Tehran and Riyadh alongside its Western and regional allies. Saudi Arabia, leading a Western-backed Sunni Muslim coalition, intervened in neighboring Yemen in 2015 after the Houthis ousted the government of Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi from power in the capital Sanaa. The Houthis have stepped up attacks on the kingdom in the past two weeks - including a drone strike on two oil pumping stations near Riyadh - in a resurgence of tactics that had largely subsided since late last year amid U.N.-led peace efforts. from Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines https://yhoo.it/2wkEY5R via Latest News

Glock Is a Legend (But These 5 Guns Might Be Way Better)

Image
The integration of red dot sights onto the slide is a particular area where the aftermarket has far eclipsed Glock’s original offering. Custom slides let pistol red dots sit lower into the Glock slide, so they are lower profile and co-witnessing with iron sights is easier. Glock’s own MOS system only allows red dots to sit relatively high on the slide, and is not preferred by most users of pistol red dots.While the Glock is the most popular modern pistol, it may not be the best gun for everyone’s needs. Here are some alternatives to the Glock that could be better than it, and why.(This first appeared earlier in the month.)1\. STI 2011The STI 2011 is an updated, double-stack 1911 chambered in 9mm or .40 S&W.; Highly customized 2011s have dominated the American competition shooting scene due to their excellent single-action only triggers, high capacity and low recoil impulse.While triggers and upgrades exist that can get the striker-fired Glock near the level of the 2011, the superio...
