News and Information from all aspects of the mobile phone industry
Last weekend, I went to a jazz night at the local university’s botanical garden. Between the eager play of the usual standards and a glacially-paced raffle, my girlfriend managed to drop her Galaxy S7 Edge onto the asphalt. Her phone, devoid of any protection, suffered a nasty crack in the screen that ran between the home button and the left side.
The iPhone 7 Plus has long been the neglected older brother of the upcoming iPhone models. While the smaller iPhone sizzles under the weight of media attention, leaks of the (far more exciting) Plus model have been few and far between. Now the balance has been redressed, with the release of this tantalising photo.
Official Galaxy Note 7 renders in multiple colours have appeared for the first time, weeks after some initial press shots were leaked by Evan Blass of Venture Beat and the phone itself was spotted in a screen protector fitting video that we published exclusively earlier this week.
Eagle-eyed users spotted a new unmentioned feature in the latest iOS 10 beta: your iPhone will now warn you if it detects moisture in the Lightning port, allowing you to pull out in time to potentially save your phone from damage. The story, reported by Engadget, states that the feature only works with recent iPhone models: the iPhone 6S, 6S Plus and SE.
You’ve probably seen a slew of photos like this in your Instagram, Facebook or Twitter feeds lately. They’re courtesy of an AI-driven photo filter app called Prisma, which has become super popular over the past couple weeks. In fact, since the app was released five weeks ago, it’s been downloaded 7.5 million times — and that’s only on iPhone. Now, it’s finally available on Android, with the developers opening up the beta app to testers earlier today.
