The Moto X4 is now receiving the update to Android 9 Pie in India. It comes over-the-air as a 1.1GB download, and once you install it you'll be on build number PPW29.69-17. If you haven't gotten the update notification yet, then you could manually check for it through Settings. Note though that it's likely to be a phased rollout, so doing that might not actually work. Still, the good news is that the update is now on its way to every single Moto X4 unit sold in the subcontinent, so you should have it within the next few days. Motorola also promised Android Pie updates for the Moto Z3,... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2DkltPs via IFTTT

An odd occurrence has been spotted by an increasing number of iPhone users - their Apple ID accounts are being locked. This would normally happen if someone attempts to access an ID by entering an incorrect password too many times, but that's not the case here. It's still unclear what is prompting Apple's systems to lock people's accounts, but if that happens to you the company will require you to reset your password. It's an inconvenience, for sure, but thankfully you aren't being permanently locked out of your account. You'll instantly know if you're affected because iOS will... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2zboSx9 via IFTTT

It seems like we have been talking about foldable displays forever now. That's no coincidence either, since looking back at the news section, we can trace the earliest mentions of the futuristic tech to 2014 - a millennium ago in tech terms. Well, flexible displays are finally here and going to start appearing on consumer devices in 2019. How do we know for sure this time around? Well, Samsung already teased a working prototype at its annual developer conference (SDC 2018). Other manufacturers have stated official plans for delivering flexible phones too. Plus, Google is already... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2qLqJEw via IFTTT

Spotify has landed on the Apple Watch, just update the app on your iPhone (v.8.4.79) and it should show up on the watch (unless you've disabled Automatic App Install). If you haven't already, you can download Spotify from the App Store.

Samsung should announce a trio of new Galaxy S10 flaghips next year - two models with curved 5.8-inch and 6.44-inch displays - and a third with a flat 5.8-inch display. Thanks to leaker Ben Geskin we may have some new clues to clarify that last one.

According to Geskin the budget Galaxy S10 may even carry a 2018... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2QG71oX via IFTTT

YouTube VR was a long time coming standalone app for Facebook's Oculus Go budget VR headset. If you are an Oculus Go owner, you can finally enjoy the rich VR-ready YouTube library, which happens to be the biggest one in the world. And, surprisingly or not, the media content on the Oculus Go platform is far more important than the gaming aspect of this device. According to Oculus, 70% of the time users spend with the headset is watching videos with the other 30% being for gaming. There are plenty of video streaming app services prior to the YouTube VR launch on the Oculus platform... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2DB3FR3 via IFTTT

The adoptable storage feature was introduced with Android Marshmallow a few years ago and it made sense for devices with low built-in storage since the microSD card acted as an additional space not just for your media but your apps as well. Unfortunately, Samsung chose not to adopt that feature on the premise that only low-storage, low-end devices would benefit. It all changes with Android Pie, though.

Xiaomi brought its most popular smartphones to the UK on November 8. To celebrate the new market, the company launched a flash sale where the Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite and Xiaomi Mi A2 were offered for £1. The deal was over in the blink of an eye since the company offered only three phones at that price per model. A follow-up included two units apiece, adding up to the massive amount of 10 smartphones.
