Do you remember yesterday info about four more gaps in Snapragon drivers?That’s nice because Google announced that solution for this kind of danger is in use…Verify Apps was created just for this type of problems and is activ in devices with Android 4.2 – owners of older versions of OS can manualy turn it on in Google Settings app in security tab.But still, until patch will be avaible I would not install apps from outside of Googlpe Play.Source: Android Authority Tweet Vote ...

System: Android 6.0;Screen: 5,5″ 1080p IPS;SoC: MediaTek Helio P10;RAM: 3GB;Storage: 16GB + microSD;Cameras: 13+5MP;Battery: 4000mAh;Others: hybrid Dual SIM, fingerprint scanner, USB type – C, fast charging;Size: 150,8x75x8,5mm;Weight: 185g;Cena: ?.So we have another standard mid-end model this time from UMI. And with name inadequate to phone. But ok, concentrate on phone firstHelio P10 and 3GB of RAM are good duet for mid-end phone and 4000mAh battery is perfect complement giving few hours of work even with games or multimedia.Now disadvantages (or one disadvantage to be ...

Probably we all heard about Edward Snowden – person who leaked calssified NSA files in 2013. (at the moment staying in Russia as political refugee).And what about this “safe phonecase” from headline? Simple – it’s phonecase (first for iPhones 6 then maybe for other models) which will monitor (and possibly block) signals from smartphone that can reveal its loclisation.If you want to ask why than here’s the answer: because airplane mode don’t block all localisation signals like GPS and in some models you can still recive an sms.It’s project ...

What it offers?On paper quite good performance with its tri-cluster build: 4xCortex A-73 (2.8GHz) + 4xCortex A-53 (2.2GHz) + 2xCortex A-35 (2GHz). And all of this in 10nm technology FinFETIn addition it supports camera sensors up to 40MP, 8GB RAM in LPDDR4 type, LTE CAT 12 and have build-in quad-core PowerVR 7XT graphic processor.All of this gives us powerfull tool for VR. And first models with this SoC should be avaible in second half on next year.Will it be more powerfull then Qualcoms chips? In terms of pure power deffinitly not but taking recent security problems of Snapdragons into ...

System: Android 6.0;Screen: 5,5″ FHD IPS;SoC: MediaTek Helio P10 (8x2GHz;RAM: 3GB;Storage: 32GB + microSD;Cameras: 13/5MP;Battery: 3100mAh;Others: Hybrid Dual SIM;Cena: Yuan 1500-1700 ($225-255).So as you can see it’s higher-states of the mid-end: one of best mid-end SoCs (at least more secure then Qualcom), 3GB RAM and 32B of build-in storage. The biggest pain I have is hybrid dual SIM (where in one slot you put micro SIM and another is hybrid – nano SIM or microSD) but it’s standard now.Source: gsmManaiaK (Polish) and Android ...

So 4 more problems with security of Qualcoms SoC drivers was exposed.Patch will be avable from September and until then it’s adviced for owners of models with this companys SoCs to install apps only from Google Play Store and to use only secured Wi-Fi spots.Source: gsmManiaK Tweet Vote on HN ...

Yeah, yeah, that’s pesimistic but I can’t restrain myself when I see changes in almost completed project aspecially when it means change in premiere date.Verne Apollo was presented on Helio X20 lauch event and… that’s all we heard of it until now. And what info was given to us? That Apollo will have Helio X25 insted X20.So yes, it will be more powerfull but we can’t expect it for some time.I have hope that Verne will not shoot in their own foot with this move.Source: ...

So maybe I will start with price – €3 900 or $4 200.What we get for that?System: Android 5.1;Screen: 4,7″ 1080p;SoC: Snapdragon 801 (4@2,3GHz);RAM: 2GB;Storage: 64GB + microSD;Cameras: 13+2,1MP;Battery: 2275mAh;Others: wireless charging;Size: 143.4x69x11.2mm;Weight: 193g.So with insides nothing justifu this price. So why is so damn high? Ther are two main reasons:first of all it’s materials used in external part of phone – titanium frame, chevron finish and sapphire glass on display,secondary it’s mark and it’s elite feal.Does we need something like ...

Probably yes – we expect next flagship phone from them in few months now and thic concepts promices interesting and futuristic design.Most important features:– no side frame;– no frame atop screen;– minimalistic frame under screen;– edged display;– double vertical rear camera;– phone is slender.Rumors have it will have Snapdragon 821, 4GB RAM and 4K display.Of course at the moment its impossible to accomodate all of this in such a thin phones body but I have hope that only big change regarding look will be thicness.Source: ...
