Although from only one retailer - Clove. The release is not perfect, unfortunately. Firstly, the device's price is £480, which is higher than if bought from an European retailer (€500 + shipping).

It is old news that Apple is now facing twenty six lawsuits regarding the battery downgrading scandal. ”New news” is that not only private citizens have an axe to grind with Apple; senator John Thune, president of the Federal Trade Commission, have issued a letter to Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, where he touches on a few subjects that are mighty ...

This one is a biggie! Weighing 737.5 megabytes, software update 2.42.617.1... has a suspiciously small changelog. All we are seemingly getting in it are the December Android Security patch and some unspecified system enhancements. There must be more to this update than meets the eye, but so far we do not know what could it be. We will let you know when ...

Hurray, I guess. After a large December update, this one is pretty small. Weighing 22 megabytes, firmware version A520FXXU4BRA8 brings with itself 91 Google fixes for the Android OS and 13 for the Samsung Experience OS. Right now the update is available only for the unbranded models. We do not know when will it become more widely available.

This is what Niantic had to say on the subject: ”In ...

Samsung Galaxy J1 mini Prime is one of the cheapest Samsung phones sold. Hence, it may be a bit weird that it is a second Samsung phone to get January security update. Samsung's update policy is weird. Anyway, the update's content consists mainly of security fixes - five critical Android vulnerabilities, thirteen Samsung vulnerabilities and a bunch ...

Alcatel has made an appearance on last week's CES 2018, where it talked about its three upcoming smartphone series - namely Alcatel 5, 3 and 1. We will have to wait until MWC 2018 to learn more about them, but we already know enough to get a glimpse of what will those devices be. Here is what we know. Alcatel 5 will be this year's Alcatel flagship, ...

Interesting? It should be. Honor 7X will be one of the first phones in its (relatively) low price range that will be equipped with a facial recognition security feature. None of the globally released mid-rangers yet can say that it has this feature. Facial recognition for Honor 7X will start working with the next software update. Well well, face ...
