Guys from Meizu have just presented us a concept of their newest smartphone, an interesting, perhaps even groundbreaking Meizu Zero. What is so cool about it? Oh, nothing, just the fact that it has no buttons and no connectors at all. All there is to this smartphone is its case, display and a touch frame on the right side of the device. Having no classic loudspeakers, it will use the so-called piezo-electronic transducers; lack of charger connectivity means that it will be charged wireless-only. There is even no SIM card, which might displease some potential users.Specs:– ...

Starting at an unspecified but supposedly near date, 1850 Target locations across the United States of America will accept Google Pay and Samsung Pay in addition to Apple Pay which it have already been supporting for a while now. Unfortunately, Target’s RED cards cannot be added to any of the above payment methods; if you want to keep your 5% discount then you need to use the Wallet feature in Target’s app. Too bad.

Interesting. One extremely devoted fan of the old Fallout games have accomplished a pretty impressive task of making the old game work on a smartphone. They launched it on a pretty old by itself Lumia 950 XL. In order to pull it off, the fan had to use Windows 10 ARM, Windows OS version specifically made to work alongside ARM architecture processors. Video depicting this accomplishment can be watched here.Personally I would rather not play that game on a small screen but hey, kudos for ...

Google News, aggregate of news from various online websites from all over the world, might be pulled out from Europe. The reason for this is a copyright laws directive that the European Parliament is currently working on. If the directive passes, it will give the authors of texts that Google News uses demand payment for their usage – all that it will require is for just parts of their articles to appear when browsing Google News. For the moment the directive has been stopped, but it being passed is not out of question. Analysts are not certain what Google will do if that happens; they ...

Donovan Sung, Xiaomi’s spokesperson, has posted a quite interesting video on Twitter. The video depicts Bin Lin, the co-founder of Xiaomi, playing with a prototype unit of foldable Xiaomi device. Mister Sung also asks what should this device be called, so if you have come up with a good name, now is the time to use it.The device in question is a tablet which sides can be folded backwards into the shape of a smartphone. It looks roughly the same as the unit presented to us in Evan Blass’ leak earlier this month. Unlike Samsung Galaxy F, it does not equire a smaller outside ...

It will be one Miko³aj Stroiñski, the same man who (along with currently working on Cyberpunk 2077 Marcin Przyby³owicz) has created the soundtrack for Witcher 3. The man does not have to be advertised to anyone who played W3 – if you do not remember, check out the game’s opening theme. Good? Good.Sadly, there is nothing new that we know about the game itself. It is being made by Relic Entertainment, veterans of the RTS genre, which is good. Its release date is unknown. What we do have is a teaser trailer that is definitely worth looking ...

Last Sunday, Pope Francis took time to publicly tout the ClickToPray mobile application. This marked probably the first time in the history where Pope spoke about electronics from the balcony over the St. Peter’s Square. ClickToPray, first released in 2016, allows its users to post what they are praying for at the moment. It also helps other people find those praying and pray along with them. The app even has a section where the pope himself will now be leaving monthly prayer guidance.The app is free, although some snarky souls out there believe that Vatican might try to cash in on ...

More than one modder have tried to bring multiplayer into the everpopular world of Skyrim, but it is the team working on Skyrim Together mod that got the closest to this goal. Currently, their mod is only available to a small number of Patreon contributors beta testers, but the plans are for it to soon be released to a wider audience. Reportedly, most of the game’s features are already working fine, or at least as intended: the mod is said to bring little in the way of adapting it to a co-op experience, which means that, for example, every player has their own separate journal and ...

Hallelujah, the first real trailer of the new Far Cry is out. Set for release on March 28, New Dawn is next sequel (or a spinoff, like Primal? Difficult to say) in the extremely popular open world shooter Far Cry franchise. After fighting bad guys in various exotic parts of the world, from Africa to the US northlands, this time we will be staying on the American soil but in new, somewhat postapocalyptic, times. That is right, ladies and gentleman, Far Cry is taking us to the gloriously colourful post-apocalyptic future. What does this mean? Seemingly chainsaw guns, baddies with motorcycle ...

We will probably have to wait until autumn before we will be able to see Google Pixel 4 live, but it is today that we can take a first look at this upcoming smartphone’s design. Graphics that depict it can be watched here, here and here. The graphics present us with a few interesting bits of information: they show us a single main camera, fingerprint scanner and, last but not least, a nearly completely borderless screen. The design does not include, sadly, any specifications: all we know is that the smartphone will run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 ...
