There’s a part of the technology industry that doesn’t get a lot of attention, but it should: logistics. How you build a widget, for what price, and how you sell said widget is often more important than the widget itself. Case in point: HTC used to be an important player in the smartphone space, but today they’re eclipsed by companies like Sony, LG, and even ASUS. If you’re a company that sells components to handset makers, you want to sign contracts with big firms who can guarantee a steady supply of orders....

As it is typical, the first tests of benchmark of the new processor of Samsung already have begun to realize and induce that it can have a power of inferior processing than the one of the competitions, notably the A10 and A11 SoC of the tech giant Apple.

Although they do not allow factual conclusions, they already guarantee an advanced idea of the capacities of the equipment or processor in question....

I’m going to get a lot of hell for saying this, but screw it: I think the last cool thing Google did was to integrate their translation service into Chrome. That was in early 2010. Maybe you don’t care about reading websites in languages other than your own, but I do that multiple times a day. Whether it be for catching up on Finnish news, reading Korean rumors, Russian device leaks, whatever....

While there is no real functional advantage that the fabric provides, it surely looks unique and when closed, can be confused for a hard-bound notebook or a diary.

For now, the update seems to be rolling out only to the T-Mobile variant of the handset in the United States.

Look, Feel and Design The rear of the phone has glossy pebble design which will attract a lot of attention. Our Indigo unit just looks beautiful, delivers premium quality, and we will never think of grabbing a case for it. It also comes in White and Gold colors.
