More than you expected.
You’ve heard the expression: A little goes a long way. With EMUI 9.0 on the latest Huawei phones, including the Mate 20 Pro, that expression is doubly true.
Previous versions of EMUI were attractive and fluid and intuitive, but this year’s version takes things to another level, offering substantial improvements to the way users navigate through the UI and how long they’ll have to wait for things to load. But before we get [Read More…]

More people than ever are living in urban environments, where dirty air, noise and other pollution factors abound.
Large urban agglomerations inevitably lead to air pollution. But despite the significant impacts on human health, we still lack the necessary tools to tackle the issue at large.
Fortunately, there’s something you can do to improve air [Read More…]
It might be easy to forget this today, but the primary function of a mobile phone is to allow you to make phone calls.
But while smartphones continue to leap forward in most areas, from voice-triggered assistants to super crisp displays and advanced cameras, they seem to be mired in the mud when it comes to improving voice quality.
It’s an experience most of us are all too familiar with: not being able to hear what the person on the [Read More…]
Make your voice calls sound better on both ends with these tips.
For some, phone calls are an important feature of a phone. There’s always a lot of discussion about which messaging app is the best or why you would want to use one SMS app over another, and those things are worth talking about to be sure.

Xiaomi’s $ 75 air quality monitor is an essential commodity for the Indian market.
Air quality in India has deteriorated over the course of the last decade, with Delhi being a prime example of just how bad the situation is in the country. Last winter, the capital witnessed particulate matter (PM2.5) in excess of 500 (that’s because most of the instruments could only record up to 500), making the air toxic. For most major metropolitan cities in [Read More…]
Unlike the Uncarrier.
The FCC has fined T-Mobile $ 40 million for faking connections to rural customers in Wisconsin, according to a release. It also inserted fake ring tones into those calls to make it seem like they were connecting and failing, even though no one was on the other end of the call to pick up.
The FCC’s Enforcement Bureau opened an investigation following rural carrier and consumer complaints that T-Mobile callers were unable to reach [Read More…]
Just in time for allergy season and warm weather!
The Dyson Pure Cool Link Wi-Fi Air Purifier is down to $ 349 on Amazon. This deal on the White version is conveniently timed to compete with Best Buy‘s one-day deal on the Blue version, so I’m willing to bet this price won’t be here tomorrow. It normally sells for around $ 500.
Dyson’s air purifier does the purifying thing all year round with a HEPA filter that [Read More…]
Are you curious about the air quality in your home? The Google Home- and Alexa-compatible Awair Glow can help you breathe easy.
I’m an allergy sufferer. I’m allergic to dust, pollen, mould, trees, grasses, an assortment of barnyard animals, cats, dogs, smoke, and more. And like an idiot, I have both a cat and a dog in a rather small home that’s over 65 years old.
I’ve long wondered about the air quality in this house: we [Read More…]
A fantastic pair of noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones that doesn’t push the bar forward.
With the proliferation of phones without headphone jacks, it’s no surprise that Bluetooth headphones have become incredibly popular lately.
But there was a category of headphones that, while perhaps more niche until recently, always extracted plenty of divisive opinions: noise-canceling. Thank Bose’s incredibly popular QC25s, which gave way to the wireless QC35s, and inspired a category of imitators trying to get in on the [Read More…]
