Copper Nokia 8 images leaked

Wooo. So exciting. Anyway, a bunch of life images of supposed copper-coloured Nokia 8 have leaked earlier today on Baidu, a Chinese forum. Leak suggests that the device is already in mass-production and will be launched by the end of July.Yeah, copper colour looks cool, and is certainly original. What else? Not much. Device seems to look exacly as it was depicted before – single-lens, dual camera setup, physical Home button, the works. The only thing that differs the image from the most recent renders is a distinct lack of Carl Zeiss branding. In other words, were is me Zeiss cmera? ...

How BlackBerry protects US and Canadian governments

After a few years of apathy, BlackBerry seems to be doing better. First, BB released a quite successful KEYone smartphone. This in turn helped the company turn out strong earnings in its first fiscal quarter. Now sun shines over BlackBerry once more, as governments of United States of America and Canada have turned to it for cybersecurity. SecuSUITE for Government is a multi-platform solution created to offer end-to-end encryption for text and voice calls. This feature, now a part of BlackBerry Secure, has been rented by the above countries’ governments to protect their cyber assets. ...

How a Chinese woman tried to smuggle over a hundred iPhones

China may be different than much of the world, but it has something common with every corner of the globe – namely, high prices of iPhones. Chinese methods of bypassing this issue are also similiar to those of the rest of the world – they smuggle them. One of those would-be smugglers was a Chinese woman that recently got caught during a customs control while on her way out of Hong Kong. Guards have found on her not one, not two but 102 iPhones, along with fifteen luxurious watches, all of which she neatly strapped to her body. Whole package weighted over fourty four pounds and ...

What might be Huawei Nova 2 Plus just hit FCC

Two slightly different models have just made it through the United States Federal Communications Commission. Devices, numbered BAC-L03 and BAC-L23, will differ in the number of SIM cards supported, with L03 supporting one card and L23 supporting two. Similiarity of the devices’ numbers to BAC-AL00, which is Huawei Nova 2 Plus’ model number in China, leads us to believe that these may be the US versions of the smartphone. If that turns out to be true, Americans can look forward to getting a Huawei phone with 5.5′, 1920 x 1080p display, Snapdragon 625 CPU and a 3340mAh ...

Is Australia ready to sacrifice its privacy on the altar of security?

Long story short, australian government prepares to present a new bill which, if passed, will allow its intelligence agencies access to all messages sent using web communicators such as Facebook. How? By forcing FB and other such companies to decrypt communication of any of their users suspected of terrorist activity. Companies, Google among them, defend against it, saying that decrypting messages will create backdoors that can be used by hackers to commit their illicit activities.Who is right? Who is wrong? You be the judge. Who will win, the government or the companies, security (and ...

Samsung’s Bixby gets voice support in the US. Yaay

As cool as Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus were, they lacked one feature that Samsung promised before their release – a fully operational Bixby assistant. Samsung’s AI has lacked voice support, an essential part of any smartphone AI. Thankfully, no more! At least if you live in the US.Update rollout begins immediately for both Galaxy s8 and S8 Plus owners in the United States. If your phone is still not getting it, please do not worry – it will eventually, probably in a day or two. Those of you who do not live in the US are out of luck, though, as Samsung has not stated when will ...
