Speaking at MWC 2018, Samsung’s mobile chief seemed to confirm that the plan was to launch Bixby 2.0 at the same time as the Note 9 in 2018. Koh continued: “At this speed, I think we will be able to unveil Bixby 2.0 when we launch the Galaxy Note 9.”Now, current predictions place the launch of the Note 9 in the middle of 2018, before Samsung’s Bixby smart speaker is supposed to be hitting the market.

That’s what the Energizer Power Max P16K Pro is boasting. So the Power Max P16K Pro’s 16,000mAh battery is about four or five times bigger than the big boys’ batteries. “It’s really hard to talk about average use, because battery power all depends on how much you’re using WiFi and data. “We thought we’d give it a big battery because, hey, it’s Energizer – it HAS to have a big battery!” said Emard. Although the company was also showing its Energizer Power Max P600S with a paltry 4,500mAh battery,

Xiaomi recently confirmed the Mi Mix 2S to debut on 27 March. It has now been followed up by a leak from an industry insider, Mocha RQ, who claims that the Mi 7 will be launched in June. While GizmoChina says the reason behind the delay could be to avoid internal clash between the two flagships from the company— the Mi Mix 2s and the Mi 7. Mocha claims that the Mi 7 will be a 6-inch Samsung display and has an iPhone X-like notch design. We expect the phone to run on Android Oreo as the Mi Mix 2s

Apple’s HomePod is an audio behemoth, a Siri-equipped smart speaker that offers some of the best sound quality around. Setting a timer is blissfully simple, you simply say: “Hey Siri, set a timer for [insert time]”. Once it’s set and named, all you have to do is say is say: “Hey Siri, activate [your chosen name for the scene]”. Just say: “Hey Siri, what’s the news?” Just say: “Hey Siri, change the news source to [your preferred news source].”

But with this discount applied, this is a high quality headset which just became that much more tempting. Dell dealAs mentioned, that deal is a US-only affair, mainly because the Odyssey isn’t sold in Europe. However, folks in the UK who are hunting for a W

Smartphone chipset maker Qualcomm has launched a brand new series of its mobile powerhouse at MWC 2018, with the Snapdragon 700 promising to bring flagship features to handsets at a more affordable price bracket. The Snapdragon 700 series slips in below the firm’s flagship Snapdragon 800 chipsets, and above its mid-range 600 series, which means the phones that the new chips will feature in won’t be cheap, rather just more affordable than the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S9, Huawei Mate 10 Pro and

Samsung’s big announcement at MWC 2018 was of course the Samsung Galaxy S9, but the company has also shed some light on its future plans, including the name of its next flagship and the release of the folding Samsung Galaxy X. Although he didn’t get any more specific about what the name might be changed to, this chimes with previous rumors that what would be the Galaxy S10 would instead be called the Samsung Galaxy X, with subsequent handsets in the range having the year in brackets – for exampl

After revealing its latest earnings, Fitbit appears to be a company that’s running out of breath (and cash) as it tries to keep up with the wearable competition. But the company does have a plan to pull things back, a plan that includes a new business model and a shift towards smartwatches in 2018. This means Fitbit will spend more time trying to draw in premium subscribers for its paid-for solutions like Fitbit Health Solutions and Fitbit Coach. While transitioning towards smartwatches and long

DesignIf you purchased a VIZIO M-Series last year, you might remember the manufacturer packing in a free Android tablet that served in place of a traditional remote. Technically speaking, the VIZIO M-Series is only a display – i.e. To that end, it’s good the VIZIO M-Series comes with Chromecast built-in – if it used the on-board OS exclusively, the M-Series would have absolutely been a bear to use. Two words my friends, “picture performance.”Although built for HDR/4K/WCG (high dynamic range, 4K,

The recent leaks of the Moto G6, G6 Plus and the G6 Play led us to believe that Lenovo might unveil these new phones at MWC this year, but while the brand did unveil a couple of new 2-in-1s and screen-equipped smart speaker, there was no sign of any new handsets. Lenovo did have a spot on a wall at its booth that was reserved for the next model of the G series. According to our sources, the G series is “coming soon”. The tease gives very little away other than the outline of a handset and ‘2018’

The Alpha A7 III is Sony’s latest full-frame camera, and sits at the bottom of its full-frame line-up below the 42.2MP Alpha A7R III and 20fps Alpha A9. It replaces the Alpha A7 II that was launched back in 2014, and Sony has lavished much of its latest tech on the Alpha A7 III, aiming to redefine what we should expect from an entry-level full-frame camera. While the resolution remains the same, the new sensor in the Alpha A7 III features a back-illuminated design that delivers a much faster rea

But the answer is becoming obvious; an Internet of the Sky. What is the Internet of the Sky?

With the right network router, you can ask Amazon’s Alexa to investigate and block unfamiliar devices from your network, all through voice commands.

In the midst of all the Galaxy S9 news dominating MWC 2018 , Samsung’s mobile president DJ Koh also took time to confirm long-standing rumors of a Samsung smart speaker. As first reported by the Wall Street Journal, Samsung will release a “premium” Bixby smart speaker in the second half of 2018. Presumably, this speaker will connect with Samsung’s SmartThings network to control all your smart home devices via voice assistant commands through the Bixby platform. What we do know is that Samsung do
