Energizer seemingly wants to take a smartphone market by storm. The company plans to show us 26 different smartphone models during the MWC 2019, and while we will probably forget most of them the day they come out, a few of these models have a shot at being more memorable. One of them is one of the Power Max series (there will be four series, Energy, Hardcase, Ultimate and Power Max), which is supposed to come out with an 18000mAh battery. Other interesting models include a foldable one and retractable camera ...

Well, it is a new smartphone made by Google (duh).

As for the device itself, some speculate that it may be Google Pixel ...

It was just yesterday that I wrote about Meizu Zero, world’s first smartphone lacking both any buttons and connectors, and today I get to tell you about another one just like that. Apex 2019 by Vivo is a concept smartphone with the same main feature as Zero; it will have no buttons, with user’s interface being limited to touchscreen and touch frame, and no connectors. Like Zero it will be charged wirelessly, but it will also have the option of charging via a magnetic interface. Unlike Zero it will lack a pretty important feature these days, namely the selfie shooter camera. ...

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.

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 ...
