Rumors surrounding the upcoming Motorola Moto G7 series claim it will be announced at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2019. Last year, the company had unveiled the Moto G6 series in Brazil. An unnamed source has revealed to Brazilian publication that Motorola will be debuting the Moto G7 series at Brazil before the MWC 2019.

It will be a global launch event, claims the publication. This year, the Moto G6 series was introduced in the second quarter of the year. However, if the new reports are true, Lenovo’s sub-brand could be working on launching the G7 series earlier in Q1 2019. Past reports have revealed that the Moto G7 series will include four handsets such as Moto G7, Moto G7 Plus, Moto G7 Power and Moto G7 Play.

The Moto G series that was introduced in 2013 is very popular in the Brazilian market. Hence, it appears that the company will want to maintain its popularity in Brazil by announcing the forthcoming Moto G7 series in the country.

Dec 27, 2018

December is usually a very cold month and it is not unusual to see companies releasing products that serve the need of staying warm during the cold weather. Xiaomi’s ecological chain company Smartmi has just launched a new electric heater on crowdfunding which cot 349 yuan. However, the Smartmi Electric Heater ill sell for just 299 yuan ($43) during the crowdfunding period.

The product is manufactured by Smartmi technology and is tipped to be capable of heating up the air inside the house such that the density becomes different from that of cold air. This difference in density creates a convection effect and thus, stimulates the circulation of the air in order to heat up the home. Compared with the traditional radiation-based electric heater, this new product has the advantages of rapid heating and low drying, and the user feels more comfortable when using it. In addition, the gadget also supports a more precise temperature regulation and also has a constant temperature function. This function will come in handy to enable heat to reach areas with insufficient heating. Obviously, this function is extremely user-friendly in areas with insufficient heating, and it is also very helpful for reducing power consumption.

In addition, the device comes with built-in WiFi module which means users can control the gadget through the MIJIA App or XiaoAI smart assistant. Thus, you can remotely switch it on while at work so as to heat up the home before you get there. This will also afford users the opportunity to stay in bed and control the electric heater without having to step down. The app can also be used to adjust the heating temperature and set other features like child lock etc. It is worth mentioning that the Smartmi electric heater has made a more comprehensive design in terms of safety of use, which is very warm.

At present, the Xiaomi Smartmi Electric Heater is being crowdfunded for 299 yuan ($43) via the online channels as well as offline Mi Home stores and other Xiaomi authorised stores.

Dec 27, 2018

The Galaxy A8s launched a few weeks ago as the first phone in the world with a hole in its screen. However, it wasn’t available for purchase immediately. That changes in a few days as interested buyers will now be able to grab a unit starting on January 1.

The Galaxy A8s will also sell for a lesser price than originally reported. Instead of the ¥2999 (~$437) price tag, the phone will sell for ¥2799 (~$408). It will be available for purchase on JD.com and those who pre-order before January 1 will receive a bunch of gifts, though you will be required to pay a deposit of about ¥200 (~$29).

The Galaxy A8s is the first Samsung phone with an Infinity-O display. It is a 6.4-inch panel with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 2340 x 1080. The phone also packs some impressive processing power. Rather than a mid-range Exynos chipset, the Galaxy A8s is powered by the upper mid-range Snapdragon 710 mobile platform paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.

Samsung has also been generous with the cameras. There are three on the back and the fourth one is in front. The triple camera setup is a 10MP telephoto lens with 2X optical zoom, a 24MP f/1.7 primary camera, and a 5MP f/2.2 depth sensor. The selfie camera is a 24MP sensor.

The phone has a 3,400mAh battery, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, dual SIM support and runs Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have a 3.5mm audio jack – a first for a Galaxy phone.

360° video render reveals Motorola P40 will ditch notch for hole-in-display

Dec 27, 2018

The Motorola P-series is a new series that was unveiled by the Lenovo-owned company this year. The first of the P-series include the Motorola P30, Motorola P30 Play a.k.a Motorola One, and the Motorola P30 Note a.k.a Motorola One Power. A new leak has revealed the series will continue next year, starting with the Motorola P40.

The leak is a 360° video render and images courtesy of OnLeaks in collaboration with 91mobiles and they give us our very first look at the device.

A signature feature of the Motorola P30 series is the notch above the display. For the Motorola P40, Motorola is ditching that for what will be the trend of 2019 – a punch hole display. It is too early to say if the other P40 phones will adopt the same design.

The hole that houses the front camera sits in the top left corner and appears to be a tad bigger than that of the Samsung Galaxy A8s. The bezels don’t appear to have reduced and the one at the top is now even thicker. However, this is just a render and the device itself may be a bit different. The screen size hasn’t changed and remains 6.2-inches.

[envira-gallery id=”229542″]

The rear of the Motorola P40 has also been redesigned. It is still home to dual cameras one of which is said to be a 48MP sensor but they look different now. The sensors are in the same housing, however, the LED flash now sits below the cameras instead of between them. The Motorola logo is black and is home to a fingerprint scanner.

Although this is the Motorola P40, there is the Android One logo at the base. The Motorola P30 didn’t launch outside China, so this means the P40 will get an international launch though most probably under a different name just like the other P30 phones. What do you think it will be called?

The Motorola P40 also has a USB-C port at the bottom and a 3.5mm audio jack at the top.

Chinese Technology Brand Tronsmart launches the portable Element Force Bluetooth Speaker with 40W output

About the Tronsmart

Tronsmart is a Chinese tech company founded by Eric Cheng. The founder is a tech enthusiast who is said to have used his first paycheck in 2013 to create a small laboratory where he disassembled tech products in order to grasp a greater understanding of the inner components. He was based in Shenzhen, Asia’s Silicon Valley of hardware and this was helpful in building his passion as he could easily find components in the local market and assemble his own unique audio devices. Eric took this self-acquired understanding of electronics and used it to create a wide range of cost-effective gadgets. After assembling a trusted team, Eric managed to bring his self-made electronics to mass production; thus creating the brand “Tronsmart”.

As the internet continues to shape the world, many businesses with humble beginnings have used the support of online communities to expand globally. Tronsmart is no exception. Tronsmart started as a group of people lacking essential resources for global brand expansion. However, over the course of several years, Tronsmart managed to garner enough online attention to make a dent in the world of Consumer Electronics. The Tronsmart team truly believes that “if you offer the customer quality products at an affordable price, nothing can stop you from expansion”. It’s this system of belief that fuels their desire to keep “Powering You Ahead” by continually offering more incredible products each year.

Tronsmart first released the powerful Element Mega Bluetooth speaker on September last year, equipped with its latest SoundPulse™ technology which delivers 40W power output in a compact size. The speaker became one of the bestselling Bluetooth speakers due to its power-packed features and indeed, this has prompted the release of an upgraded version dubbed Tronsmart Element Force with waterproof feature.

The Element Force is a portable Bluetooth speaker with a massive 40W output as well as an IPX7 waterproof rating. The speaker is equipped with dual passive radiators and two 20W full-range stereo loudspeakers. The Element Force can enhance the low-end sound tones to give the bass an extra boost. With an IPX7 waterproof rating, it can be fully submerged in water up to a depth of 1.5 meters for 30 minutes. The Element Force is not only powerful and durable, but it is also capable of 15 hours of play time making it the perfect addition to your next outdoor adventure. The speaker is available to buy on Geekbuying for $65.99 and you get the option of shipping from China, Poland or Germany, thus increasing the chance of buying with lower shipping cost and fast delivery.

In fact, the company has already scheduled a launch event on 22nd January in Paris for the launch of Honor View20.

Now, ahead of the Honor View20 launch, Amazon India has started teasing the launch of the same phone in the Indian market. The phone’s landing page on the e-commerce platform also reveals that the phone will be sold exclusively through Amazon in India, similar to its predecessor Honor View10.

Just like the Honor V20, the View20 should come in three color options — Black, Red, and Blue. To know the phone’s pricing and availability information, we’ll have to wait for the launch event on 22nd January.

The front-facing camera is placed under the display at the top-left corner. The in-display camera occupies only a fraction of space since the hole for the camera measures only 4.5mm in diameter. This enables the company to offer slimmer bezels around the display.

Under the hood, the device is powered by 7nmm Kirin 980 octa-core chipset, coupled with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. There is no microSD card slot on the device.

Huawei to surpass Apple for the second place in the global smartphone sales: Nikkei Asian Review

By

Dec 27, 2018

Huawei, which is currently under immense pressure due to the China-USA trade war, has something good to look forward to. The company is all set to beat the sales of Apple iPhones to take the second place in the global smartphone sales market.

While Huawei has beat Apple for the second spot in the global smartphones sales in previous quarters, this will be the first time that Huawei will beat Apple in full-year smartphone sales.

The Chinese company has already shipped more than 200 million units this year and has managed to greatly increase sales in China, Europe, and Africa. As per the report, it has already achieved more than 30 percent jump in global unit sales from the 153 million sold in 2017.

The most popular smartphone series from the company has been the Huawei P20-series, which primarily focuses on the camera performance, which features camera sensors co-developed with Germany’s Leica. The company’s head of consumer business said that it’s possible Huawei becomes the world’s top smartphone maker by the end of next year, pointing to strong growth in Europe and China.

According to the data from International Data Corp. (IDC), Huawei controlled 10.4 percent of the global smartphone market in 2017, behind Samsung Electronics’ 21.6 percent and Apple’s 14.7 percent. However, Huawei came in second behind Samsung for the first time in the April-June quarter and kept its place ahead of Apple in July-September as well.

However, it’s difficult for Huawei to hold on the spot for long given that the company is facing bans in key markets, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. A few countries and telecom companies are also shying from using Huawei communications equipment. This is bound to hurt the sales of the company’s phones in 2019.

During the OPPO Developer Conference that was held yesterday in China, OPPO Vice-President and President of Software Engineering Division Wu Hengang introduced Breeno voice assistant.

Breeno can better understand the needs of the users through the convergence of perceptual technology and natural interaction. Cognitive skills such as natural understanding, knowledge mapping, situational calculation and customized suggestions allows Breen to understand the world more comprehensively.

OPPO phones will be serving as a smart hub for all these technologies. He added that Breeno will be made an open platform that will enable developers to take advantage of the AI capabilities of the company.

Samsung to reportedly showcase its Sound on Display OLED panel at CES 2019

By

-

Dec 27, 2018

Smartphone manufacturers are currently trying to offer devices with full-screen display and minimal bezels. With the trend that popularised after Apple launched iPhone with a notch, other smartphones have picked up the trend and have even pushed it further.

A few China-based manufacturers like Oppo, Vivo, Huawei, and others have come up with unique smartphone designs that eliminate the need of a display notch. Now, it looks like Samsung is also trying for the same, with its own take.

Samsung Screen on Display — Samsung Galaxy Note9

According to the report from Korean news outlet ETNews, the South Korean giant will showcase its new “Sound on Display” (SoD) OLED display panels during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2019 next month in Las Vegas, US. As the name itself suggests, in SoD panel, the sound emits from the display itself and eliminates the need for external speakers.

Samsung’s Sound on Display technology uses vibration and bone conduction, which gives the company the opportunity to place yet another component beneath the screen’s surface, providing more room for the display.

This was first demonstrated by the company during SID DisplayWeek in May this year. It was showcased on a device featuring a 6.22-inch display and 2960 x 1440 pixels screen resolution. The technology, which LG is also working on, could help manufacturers turn the whole screen into a speaker.

While the company is all set to publicly demonstrate its new Sound of Display technology, there’s no information regarding its availability for manufacturers or to know certainly that it is ready for the commercial launch.

Given that it will be showcased during CES 2019, we have no doubt that the Sound on Display won’t be available in the company’s upcoming flagship smartphones for the year 2019 and we highly doubt its available in early 2020 as well. Only time will tell when we’ll be able to experience this new SoD panels from Samsung.

While there’s no dearth of high-end tablet PCs in the market, these devices usually carry price tags. As a result, those living on a tight budget are unable to get their tech greedy hands on these mobile devices, but that’s about to change.

ALLDOCUBE has teamed up with GearBest in a bid to make two of its well-received tablet PCs available to cost-conscious buyers. So without further ado, let’s head straight to the details.

ALLDOCUBE Freer X9 Tablet PC

The Freer X9 Tablet PC would normally set you back a pretty penny on online and offline stores, but you can now buy it for just $115.99 on GearBest. This is a significant 48 percent reduction in the device’s original asking price of $224.10.
