Looks like HTC wants its Edge Sense to stick. Some thought that U11 will be the only foray into the Edge Sense technology made by the company, but now we know that HTC is, in fact, working on a mid-range device that will adopt this tech. Source of the news is the same person who already leaked info on U Ultra and U Play phones, so it is safe to assume that he/she is right this time, too.What will be Ocean Life’s (this is HTC’s internal name – phone will most likely come out under a different one) specification? What we know makes it stick out as a pretty good ...
Summer vs. electronics, or how to save your smartphone from high temperatures
Summer! Time to get out and grab some tan (or to get sweaty and angry in public communication. Eff my life). Heat can be detrimental to a human body, we all realize that, but do we all also know that high (and low) temperatures are bad for electronics? Our wee little smartphones are relatively delicate tools and extreme temperatures can easily harm them – especially if their users do not know how to treat them. That is why I have decided to put down a small list of things to (not) do with your mobile on summer.1. Don’t charge your battery to the brim, or, if you REALLY have to, ...

Samsung Galaxy C7 (2017) has just received its WiFi certificate
And, as is always the case with WiFi alliance, we know nothing about the phone itself other than it will run Android 7.1 OS. At least receiving WiFi certification is a solid indication that the phone will be available in the United States. Still, that is an awful little info for a news, so here you have last year’s Samsung Galaxy C7 Pro specification, so that you will may start guessing on 2017’s version improvements:– 5.7′ screen, 1080 x 1920p,– Snapdragon 625 CPU, 8-core,– Adreno 506 GPU,– 4GB RAM, 32/64GB internal storage,– 16mpx main ...
Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Fan Edition available in South Korea on July 7th
I will not be repeating the whole story of Galaxy Note 7, because anyone who cares already knows it by heart – a great phone has been released, then turned out to have a major issue, Samsung recalled it twice, somehow did not lost all credibility and now will be selling the refurbished copies once more. Last week I told you, dear readers, that the refurbished Note 7 will be called R, standing for, well, Refurbished. I am sorry for misleading you – it turns out that the device’s name will be FE, standing for Fan Edition (kinda stupid name if you ask me, but maybe I’m ...
Wonkavator, or an elevator of the future, today
Well, okay, not today, but soon! Have you ever seen ”Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”? Eponymous factory was a massive complex that spanned many kilometers. Factory’s system of fast travel was the Wonkavators, special elevators that could move not only up and down but also in every other direction. That is the kind of device that the German metallurgy concern ThyssenKrupp (cool name) is working on. Their Wonkavators will be able to move up and down, left and right and even diagonally. How, you may ask? Well, ThyssenKrupp’s elevators will not be moved by a cable, an ...
LG Q6, a miniature version of G6, coming out soon
LG must like its G6 phone quite a lot, as the company has decided that there is room in the market for a smaller, more compact version of this particular phone. LG Q6, as it is called, will basically be the LG G6 but smaller (duh) – 5.4′ screen instead of 5.7′ (still with 18:9 aspect ratio), single 13mpx camera instead of a dual one and 3GB RAM instead of 4GB. Device is tailored for those with smaller pockets and/or smaller hands (you know what they say about people with small hands. They can’t hold large smartphones comfortably).Neither phone’s price nor date ...
LG G6 comes out in a new Amber Gold colour variant
Looks more pink than gold to me. Anyway, Amber Gold G6’s could have been spotted on LG’s website for a while, but only now can they be actually bought. Amber Gold is fourth of the LG G6’s colour variants, the first three being black, white and titanium. We are unsure whether or not the new colour variant will be available in the United States, but it will certainly be in Europe.LG G6’s specification, in case you actually want to buy a kinda-golden-pink phone:– 5.7′ display, 1440 x 2880p, Gorilla Glass 3,– Snapdragon 821 CPU, 4-core,– Adreno ...
