Huawei’s new patent shows AR glasses that connects with a smartwatch

Last year, in November, Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei Technologies, revealed in an interview to CNBC that the company is working on developing augmented reality (AR) glasses that could be connected to a smartphone.

While Richard Yu didn’t reveal more information about the device, a newly published patent application of Huawei suggests that the Chinese company is also exploring the development of AR glasses that can be connected to a smartwatch, which will be connected to a smartphone.

Huawei AR Glasses

The patent, filed by Huawei Technologies, was published in the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) on 7th February. Titled ‘Eyeglass Frame’, the patent describes a lightweight, discrete and relatively inexpensive AR headset.

Going by the patent, it seems that the slim glasses can be used as an Augmented Reality headset. Interestingly, the glasses do not have a camera, display or microphone and the user will need to have a smartwatch.

The Huawei AR glasses are further equipped with an adapter and a mirror. While the adapter is placed close to the smartwatch, the content is displayed on the smartwatch display via the mirror. The device also supports audio playback.

Huawei AR Glasses

The patent shows two different frames in the illustrations, but the placement of the smartwatch is the same. However, there’s a slight difference in the spectacle feet. For the glasses, both a transparent and semi-transparent optical element can be used.

Before the Huawei AR glasses launches in the market, the company will probably launch a smartwatch with a camera module first given that none of Huawei’s current smartwatches come with support for camera sensors.

Earlier, in an interview with CNBC, Richard Yu had suggested the timeline for the launch of this Huawei AR glasses. It could get launched by the end of this year or early next year. However, there’s no confirmation if the device will be similar to the one shown in this patent or something different.

Sprint sues AT&T over false 5G claims, terms it misleading advertising practices

The new era technologies are taking over the old ones with better features and safety nets. The latest 5G technology is still evolving, and every major manufacturer and service provider is looking to get their hands on first. It has even lead to some false claims in the market, which are misleading the end consumers. Similarly, two United States carriers are fighting over a similar instance. A major telecom carrier in the US has sued another telecom carrier for calling their advanced 4G LTE network as “5G Evolution”.

In detail, Sprint took the above instance seriously and went ahead to file a lawsuit against AT&T. It has filed a lawsuit to ban the use of “5GE” term on the customers’ devices. Even, they are also seeking an injunction to prevent the use of “5GE” tags while advertising and marketing.

Sprint said that AT&T is labeling an advanced 5G LTE (Long Term Evolution) as 5G and deceiving customers. In a lawsuit of 23 pages filed at federal court in New York, Sprint claims that “AT&T has employed numerous deceptive tactics to mislead consumers into believing that it currently offers a coveted and highly anticipated fifth-generation wireless network, known as 5G. What AT&T touts as 5G, however, is nothing more than an enhanced fourth-generation Long Term Evolution wireless service, known as 4G LTE Advanced, which is offered by all other major wireless carriers.”

Sprint consolidated it stand by saying that they have invested a lot of capital in building 5G network in nine cities this year. Even though AT&T is also working on to develop the 5G network across States but the marketing and advertisement practices they have adopted are wrong. They are wrongly using the 5GE term to label the advanced 4G LTE network leading an unfair advantage over other carriers. They emphasized that 5G networks will be 10-40 times faster than the current 4G LTE advanced networks. AT&T is deceiving the customers to make them believe the old networks as 5G.

In response, AT&T said that they are not deceiving anyone and would fight the lawsuit. They are terming 5GE network as “an evolutionary step to standards-based 5G.” AT&T further said “We understand why our competitors don’t like what we are doing, but our customers love it,” 

It made us go back into the initial launch days of 4G when similar issues were seen between AT&T and T-Mobile. Although, we believe the court will bring justice to what is right.

Samsung recently launched the Galaxy M10 and Galaxy M20 smartphones in India. Rumors are rife that the South Korean company will be also debuting the Galaxy M30 phone in India. The specifications of the smartphone had leaked at the beginning of this year. A fresh leak has revealed the front and rear design of the smartphone. It confirms that it will be equipped with a triple camera module.

The schematics of the Galaxy M30 reveals that it will be featuring an Infinity-V AMOLED display. The waterdrop-style notch on the display features a 16-meagpixel front-facing camera. The bottom edge of the phone has a USB-C port. Interestingly, the Galaxy M30 schematics do not confirm the presence of the 3.5mm audio jack.

The Galaxy M30 features a gradient color rear. The handset measures 159 x 75.1mm. A triple camera module includes a 13-megapixel primary sensor, a 5-megapixel lens and another 5-megapixel sensor. An oval-shaped fingerprint scanner also resides on the back side of the phone. The front and rear camera configurations mentioned in the schematics leak matches with the leaked specs of the phone that had surfaced at the beginning of this year.

The Galaxy M30 is rumored to feature a 6.38-inch display that will deliver 2220 x 1080 pixels. The Exynos 7904 SoC that powers the Galaxy M20 is also expected to fuel the M30 phone.

Huawei’s semiconductor spending witnessed a staggering 45% growth in 2018

According to the new report from Gartner, Samsung Electronics and Apple managed to retain the top positions in terms of semiconductor chip buyers in 2018, representing 17.9 percent of the total worldwide market.

However, this indicates a 1.6 percent decrease compared with the previous year. On the other hand, the top 10 OEMs increased their share of chip spending to 40.2 percent in 2018, which is up from 39.4 percent in 2017.

Huawei saw around 45.2 percent growth in terms of chip spending and thus managed to jump ahead of Dell and Lenovo to grab the third spot. Dell and Lenovo trails behind Huawei with 29.6 and 16.4 percent growth.

The report also reveals that eight of the top 10 companies in 2017 remained in the top 10 in 2018, with Kingston Technology and Xiaomi replacing LG Electronics and Sony. Xiaomi rose eight places to the 10th position, increasing its semiconductor spending by $2.7 billion in 2018, a 63 percent growth year-over-year.

The Gartner report says that the continued market consolidation in the PC and smartphone markets had a significant impact on the semiconductor buyers’ ranking. The big Chinese smartphone OEMs, in particular, have increased their market domination by taking out or purchasing competitors.

Thus, as a result, semiconductor spending by the top 10 OEMs increased significantly, and their share reached 40.2 percent of the total semiconductor market in 2018, up from 39.4 percent in 2017. The report adds that the trend is expected to continue, which will make it harder for semiconductor vendors to maintain high margins.

Fitbit’s upcoming fitness tracker for kids leaks, will be offered in vivid colors

Fitbit recently launched its two new fitness trackers — Fitbit Inspire and Inspire HR, both of which are aimed at business users. Now, the company is working on a new fitness tracker, which seems to be targeting kids.

A few images of Fitbit’s upcoming fitness tracker have surfaced online, which reveals that the wearable device will come in multiple vivid color options, including Blue and Pink. There’s a possibility that the device could have a few other color options as well.

Fitbit Kids

Apart from the leaked images and the fact that the device is aimed at kids, there’s no more information available about this fitness tracker at this time. However, we are expecting the device to come with features like water and dust resistant as well as some kids-focused features.

The images suggest that it will carry a bigger display but instead of a color screen, it seems that the display offered could be a monochrome one. We expect this one to carry features similar to Fitbit Ace, including a longer lasting battery life.

Given that nothing substantial is known about this upcoming fitness tracker, it’s unlikely to get launched before the end of Q2 2019. As for the pricing, since the device is aimed at kids, we expect it to be priced lower than other Fitbit fitness trackers.

LG G8 ThinQ’ (128GB version) price leaks, costs over $900

The LG G8 ThinQ is expected to launch later this month at MWC 2019. The flagship phone will come with a slight change in design and new internals. The price of the phone in Canada has leaked and provides a rough estimate for other countries.

The price was shared on the web by a Reddit user. The image shows the 128GB LG G8 ThinQ will be priced at CAD 1199.99 (~$903).

LG G8 ThinQ price

The G7 ThinQ was sold for CAD 1049.99 ($790.68) by Bell and Virgin Mobile but it had 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. For CAD 150 more, the LG G8 ThinQ brings a more powerful processor, 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The 64GB model should sell for less.

As usual, we expect those who pre-order will get significant free gifts along with their phone. Those who pre-ordered the LG G7 got a free 43-inch LG 4K UHD Smart TV.

LG-G8-ThinQ-renders

The LG G7 ThinQ launched for $750 in the US, so the LG G8 ThinQ which has more storage may sell for $800 or a little over that. In India, it launched as the LG G7+ ThinQ with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage for INR  39,990 (~$562), much cheaper than the 64GB version sold in North America. The G8 may cost over $600 but it will likely still be one of the cheapest flagships.

Moto G4 Plus gets Android Oreo as Moto Z3 Play receives Android Pie (US for both)

The Moto G4 Plus was announced back in 2016 and it ran Android Marshmallow out of the box. It later received an update to Android Nougat as promised. The phone is now receiving its Android 8.1 Oreo update more than a year after Oreo was announced.

Moto G4 Plus

Why is the update coming so late? It is actually Motorola‘s fault, to be honest. When the phone was announced, Motorola promised an update to Android N and Android O as Nougat and Oreo were known as back then. However, when the list of Moto devices getting Android Oreo was released in 2017, the Moto G4 Plus and the Moto G4 were missing.

This caused a lot of backlash and they eventually agreed to uphold their promise to update it, though on the condition that it would take time since it was “unplanned for”. Really, Motorola/Lenovo?

Now the update which will definitely be its last is finally rolling out to devices in the US. The changelog says the update brings all the features of Android 8.1 Oreo and also comes with December 2018’ security patch.
