Enter the HTC 10. The “One” bring the “M” letter are gone, but the new phone announced today is definitely a continuation of HTC’s flagship series. At a pricey $699, this is a premium flagship phone. My initial impressions are, by focusing on getting the basics right, HTC has made a device far more deserving of that premium price. It’s got the right specs, the right design, the right software....
“Desire,” after all, is the name HTC usually reserves for its mid-range phones, the Desire Eye, with its plastic chassis boxy frame, seems like it would fit right in. Yet AT&T is currently charging $150 on-contract for the Desire Eye—just $50 less than flagship phones like the HTC One (M8)—or $550 off contract. The Desire Eye isn’t a bad phone, even at that price, its 13-megapixel front-facing camera is a unique feature....
I spent my weekend putting together IKEA furniture and entertaining guests, so I didn’t have time to watch the new HTC One ad that went up on Friday. TechCrunch said it was “embarrassing“, The Verge called it “absolutely cringe-worthy“, but I wanted to see it for myself before forming an opinion. Sadly, this morning I tried pulling up the video, but it was nowhere to be found. I’m going to assume that HTC decided to have it pulled after receiving negative feedback....
Although not yet widely used, these virtual assistants have already shown that they are essential and that users are quickly getting used to their presence, using them daily. In order not to lose space for competition, Huawei will be preparing its own version of a virtual assistant, which it will use in its devices. From what is known, and that is still very little, Huawei will have more than 100 people working on this novelty....
Huawei’s HongMeng OS is Faster Than Android and MacOS If we take a brief look at the smartphone section, Huawei getting banned from using Android has been one of the trending topics from the past month. Things went wrong for the Chinese Giant when Trump Administration included Huawei under the dreaded entity list. After the ban, the company was not only restricted to sell products in the US but also not able to purchase anything....
Now, almost every prominent device and brand have their own tagline. And more often than not, it is forgotten within a few months of its being publicized. This one, however, stuck. So much so that even the tech media identified it strongly with the brand. Right until the OnePlus 3 in 2016, OnePlus kept using the term Flagship Killer in its communications. And although the term was less prominently used subsequently, reviewers and writers (us included), kept referring to any OnePlus phone as Flagship Killer – we used the term even to describe the 7 and 7 Pro....
In terms of raw specifications, the Lenovo A6600 features a 5-inch HD panel up front and is powered by MediaTek MT6735P 64-bit Quad-Core processor clocked at 1GHz. Furthermore, there’s 1GB of RAM, Mali-T720 GPU, 16GB of internal storage which is expandable via a MicroSD card, and it runs on a 2300mAh battery. On the software side, Lenovo has included its own Vibe UI layered over Android Marshmallow. Lastly, A6600 sports an 8MP rear camera with a single LED flash and a 2MP front-facing camera....
LetterSnap is, essentially a barebones iOS application for extracting text from scanned images. It may sound relatively similar to what other OCR apps already offer, however, the biggest benefit you get with this one, is the speed. The process is, though, quite straightforward – you scan a document or a couple of them, LetterSnap uploads these files to the cloud, performs the necessary operations, and yields a simple text file containing the content you wanted....
As of now, there are plenty of video streaming services available on the internet. However, out of all those, only a few stand out from the crowd. Video streaming sites like Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, etc., offers you endless hours of video content to watch. In this article, we are going to talk about Hulu. Hulu is a media streaming service that is available only for US users. But, what if you want to use Hulu outside the US?...
If you often download files from the internet, you may frequently come across surveys. Downloads are usually hidden behind online surveys and are sometimes just a waste of time. Best Ways to Unlock Or Bypass Online Surveys While there’s no sure-shot way to remove or bypass surveys, few workarounds still manage to avoid online surveys. Hence, looking for ways to unlock or bypass online surveys, you may find this guide very useful....
While Mozilla Firefox’s password manager is great, it’s not as capable as the one offered by Google. Firefox’s password manager misses the account sync option; hence you can’t access the save credentials on any other device. Besides that, all of Firefox’s password manager features remain the same as Google Password manager. You can manage your saved passwords and view or edit them as needed. Hence, this guide will discuss how to view saved passwords in the Firefox browser....
Don’t let the name change fool you, as there’s little different when comparing the Remix to the One Mini 2. The Remix sports a 4.5-inch 720p HD display, 16GB internal storage, 13 megapixel camera with single D flash, BoomSound speakers, Micro SD card slot, XE support, HTC Sense 6 running on top of Android 4.4.2 KitKat. It’s nice to see two stout features still make the cut in the One Remix: the BoomSound speakers metal body design....
HTC products have always been known for their stellar design and build quality. The company had acquired Once & Co. design studio back in 2008, which has played a major role in designing its devices since then. Now, the man behind some iconic designs from HTC including the One (M7 and M8) — Scott Croyle — is leaving the company. Croyle is leaving the company to dedicate more time to his own projects....
Now this can be interpreted in one of two ways. First, we could be seeing HTC going back to its roots, meaning they go back to being a company that builds phones to spec for other companies to slap their name on the front. There’s nothing wrong with that, obviously, but it makes having a team of software engineers to create the Sense Android layer seem a bit redundant. And that’s really the second option here, China Mobile could simply be launching four to six HTC phones, phones that HTC was already planning on launching, but they’ve been slightly tweaked to better sell the China Mobile brand....
The company Microsoft has published on its website the deadline to carry out the update to the operating system. This means that free updates for those who need assistive technologies will no longer be available for free after December 31, 2017. Good time to update Windows If you are one of those lazy people who were still thinking about it or who were waiting for a definitive signal, you should know that the acceptance of the tech giant Microsoft operating system seems to be on the right track, and surely many will be enough to know all the news of their latest update to take the step....
Enter a combination of work and exercise that fits easily into the day: The treadmill desk. A treadmill desk allows you to walk as slowly as 0.5 mph or run at higher speeds while working. Specifications Initial impressions My dad assembled the Goplus treadmill desk for me and it took him about 30 minutes. It wasn’t difficult to assemble, but the machine did refuse to work at first. We were both stumped: The display showed “—” even though the power was on....
But, as I’m sure most are aware, Twitter is a bit of a mess right now. And it’s not somewhere I want to use my energy or spend any time on. But like the rest of my Twitter-addicted friends, I can’t just quit Twitter. I need something to replace it, and right now, it looks like Mastodon is that thing. I technically have had a Mastodon account since 2018 when it first launched, but that sat dormant until a couple of months ago when I signed back in, just in case....
For instance, we can look at the “Internet of Things” (IoT) landscape, a term which describes one of the major revolutions in recent years. Everyday appliances ranging from coffee machines and digital cameras to your smartphone or tablet all have an IP address and are connected to the Internet. From a malicious perspective, this represents a “tempting landscape” as well also a concern for everyone. Through incident response combined with a deep forensic analysis, the number of security issues and computer attacks can be reduced and detected at an early stage....
Luckily for many, two of the most popular devices in the market such as Google Pixel and Pixel XL had this feature even taking into account the rumors that claimed oppositely. In fact, Google sent a small wink to Apple in the presentation video of the Pixel, boasting of the inclusion of this audio port. Unfortunately, everything seems to point to that Google, finally, will join the fashion of removing the headphone jack in the next Pixel smartphone that will arrive this year, as indicated in some supposed filtered internal documents....
Whenever we talk about iPhones, the camera is the first thing that strikes our mind. In fact, we have seen some considerable improvements on the camera front in the newly announced iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max. The camera of the recently launched smartphones includes smart HDR mode and depth adjustment mode in Bokeh effect. However, since the new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max came out, users have been found complaining about un-natural skin-smoothing effects after capturing selfies....
