Earlier today I wrote about Apple presumably planning to release two large-screen iPhones during 2018. Well, it looks like Samsung got the memo as well. Apparently, the company speeded up the distribution of OLED panels neccessary for Galaxy S9 series to be shipped November, two months earlier than planned. This suggests that the S9 may be released before the old April-March deadline. January is the date of release deduced by an unknown source of this news.While it is not 100% certain that the goal of this is for Samsung to beat Apple to the punch, it is highly probable that it is so. All ...

Apple tips future release of 6 inches iPhone in 2018
According to closely unknown source from South Korea, Apple plans on releasing two large-screen iPhones next year – lets call them iPhone 9 and iPhone 9 +. iPhone 9 is said to be planned as having 5.85′ OLED display, while iPhone 9 Plus might have a 6.46′ display. This might mean that Apple resigned from its earlier plan of releasing a smaller 5.28′ phone during 2018.Sorry for a short post, but that is all. ...

This is the end of anonymity in Chinese web
Just when a man thinks life cannot get much weirder… New law will enter into life in China on October 1st which will make staying anonymous online much more difficult for the Chinese. Chinese government will persecute all websites that will allow their users to register with nicknames and fake personal data. Persecutions are said to be mainly financial. Those websites will most likely do all in their power to force or convince their users to use their real ID when online, therefore basically removing anonymity from the Chinese Internet. Everyone will always know who wrote or uploaded ...

Samsung Galaxy S9 news; CPU, OS and more
Please keep in mind that the below information neither comes from a completely reliable source, nor speaks of a fully developed product, as the phone is still in development.

Pink Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is here
I could begin this post by writing about how it is Samsung’s policy to first deliver us their devices in few basic colour variants and then gradually offer new options, and how this time is different because pink variant of the device is out even though the device is not available yet, but who cares! The important thing is that yes, Star Pink Galaxy Note 8 is out, but no, you probablly will not be able to buy it. You see, as of now, Star Pink is only available in Taiwan, and there is no word on it being released globally or even in few other separate countries.The above info comes ...
Unlocked BlackBerry KEYone is now available from more Canadian retailers
Among the new ones are Walmart, Blueshop, Staples and PC-Canada, though the last one currently lists the device as out of stock (or on ”back order”, as someone put it in another article. English is funny). Stores’ price is mostly the same everywhere – $729.99 or similiar.I often find myself writing about BlackBerry-related news in Canada. It seems you moose-hunting, beer-drinking awesome people have much love for this brand. Is it because BlackBerry is originally a Canadian company, or do their devices have features or style that particulary suits your fancy? I would ...

The Walking Dead: Our World, a new AR game has been announced
Pokemon Go is cool and all, but it is time for a new player on the AR market. Personally I think that the project will fail tremendously, but what do I know… Anyway, AMC TV channel and Next Game developer have joined forces and announced The Walking Dead: Our World, a new artificial reality game for smartphones. Game trailer does not show actual gameplay footage, but still looks pretty cool, with running between zombies, shooting, slashing, explosions and what seems to be a promise of co-op mode, if not outright MMO-like multiplayer. Another feature will be, erm, taking selfies with ...
