FCC has approved Google to test a new radar motion sensor technology, Android Authority revealed earlier today. It is called Project Soli and can allow users to operate devices without actually touching anything via radar signals. The technology is quite different from what Samsung introduced back in 2013 with the Galaxy S4 and the gestures over the screen. Back then, the Korean company implemented camera sensors, while now Google is working on radar sensitivity that reads all kinds of hand gestures in the air. The reason for FCC to approve the test of such technology is using... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2VnRn4c via IFTTT

Perhaps it is still too early for Mate 30 news. After all, the Mate 20 Pro was announced just this past October so we won't expect it to be released at least until next fall. But since we're on the topic of it, a new report surfaced with renders of a case for a smartphone that Huawei has patented. This case was patented by Huawei with the CNIPA (China National Intellectual Property Administration) and the published renders first became public on January 1 (first reported by Mobielkopen). It is believed this case isn't for the upcoming P-series flagship that Huawei usually... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2TsmH03 via IFTTT

Today, Apple released an open letter to investors revising its guidance for Q1 of this year. The "guidance" is the information a company provides as a way to predict its future earnings. This is a rare occurrence, especially for a company with a status as grand as Apple. Essentially, Apple is lowering its guidance (expected revenue) for the first quarter of 2019 from (previously) between $89 billion and $93 billion down to $84 billion. This is compared to Apple's reported $88.3 billion in revenue for Q1 of 2018. The full letter can be found at the Source link below but here is the key... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2Ap3apV via IFTTT

The consensus ever since the first Samsung Gear was that a smart watch didn't need a built-in camera. We know this because Samsung never put a camera in any other wearable after the first Samsung Gear. To be fair, some kids smart watches have cameras but we're talking about the mass market consumer. Interestingly, this notion could change in the not-so-distant future from LG's point of view. LetsGoDigital reported about a patent that was filed with the USTPO (United States Trademark and Patent Office) by LG for a ‘smart watch and method for controlling same' as the patent is titled.

Most recent Nokia phones use Gorilla Glass by Corning to protect their screens from scratches and cracks (as do most smartphones out there). The latest Nokia 8.1 skips GG in favor of another brand of strengthened glass - Dinorex by NEG. NEG is a Japanese company (Nippon Electric Glass) and uses a similar process to Corning - depositing potassium ions on the surface of the glass to toughen the glass. It's already used by several phones including models by ZTE (e.g. the nubia Red Magic Mars), Meizu and BQ. Dinorex is designed for mobile devices • How strengthened glass... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://bit.ly/2GTT6Ls via IFTTT

Huawei's second Android Go smartphone is here. The Huawei Y5 Lite offers lowly specs and an entry-level Android experience at a very attractive price. The Huawei Y5 Lite has a 5.45-inch IPS LCD of 1440x720px resolution, a rear-facing 8MP f/2.0 PDAF camera and a 5MP f/2.2 fixed-focus selfie camera.
