During a press event hosted today in London, Huawei unveiled its latest flagship Mate 20 series. We’re looking at two models, the standard Mate 20 which arrives with a tiny teardrop-shaped notch (aka dewdrop), and the more premium Mate 20 Pro which feature a regular-style notch.
The Mate series is Huawei’s answer to the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and Google’s Pixel 3 XL. Both devices feature large screens and are packed with top tech.
The two models have a few [Read More…]
A new category of products has surfaced in recent months. If you follow tech somewhat, you’ve probably heard of the term “smart displays”.
But what exactly are smart displays and why should you really care about them? In this article, we take a look at this new type of gadget and see what sets it apart from the other available tech on the market.
The definition of smart displays

Time to go on a Snapstreak.
Snapchat Spectacles have always been neat, but they’re about to get a whole lot cooler. Snap just rolled out two new styles of Snapchat Spectacles, called Veronica and Nico.
These feature the same things as the Spectacles 2 did. They basically record 10-second clips of video, which you can upload to your Snapchat account. You can also capture a photo with ’em. They’re great for recording events, adventures, vlogs, or just [Read More…]
Android is a fragmented mess. There is no getting around this simple fact, and because of what Android is and how it’s distributed, it’s never going to change.
Once you face the simple truth that fragmentation is here to stay, you’re left with trying to find ways to mitigate it so that device makers can keep the freedom they currently have while app developers can build the newest, coolest things to install on them. That’s why Android [Read More…]
You might have already heard that UMIDIGI’s latest flagship, the Z2 Pro just went on sale a few days ago. The company is very proud of their latest achievement. In fact, UMIDIGI is so confident the Z2 Pro is going to blow away the competition that it has released a video in which it compares it against the Huawei P20 Pro.

With the digital buttons fixed in software, it’s time to reconsider HTC’s 2018 flagship.
When we first reviewed HTC’s latest handset, its digital buttons were kind of a mess. But with a software fix now rolling out, the U12+ is well worth a second look.
HTC U12+
Price: $ 799
Bottom line: HTC’s new high-end offering is speedy, with impressive glass-backed designs and very [Read More…]
These don’t go on sale all that often.
Amazon is currently offering the popular wireless headphones from Apple for $ 144.99, which is about $ 15 off the normal going rate. We don’t see many discounts (outside of Costco’s recurring one) for these truly wireless headphones from Apple, so if you have been looking for a set, this is a deal you won’t want to miss out on.
Don’t forget, just because Apple makes the headphones doesn’t [Read More…]
The history of Nexus and Pixel partnerships is long, but it isn’t too complicated to understand.
HTC’s struggles over the last four years are well documented. The business has declined sharply, the cadence of product releases has slowed, and while the phones themselves have continued to be pretty good they haven’t garnered the public’s attention on the scale necessary to run a massive international smartphone business. For some reason, this article on AppleInsider seems to think that [Read More…]
Show off a little with your headphones, it’s cool.
Some of us put headphones on as we’re leaving the house at the beginning of the day, and and don’t take them off until we’re home again. Those headphones become a part of our visual identity from day to day, and so it’s natural to want them to stand out a little. For the Marvel fans among us, iHome has released a pair of headphones themed after Captain [Read More…]
A touch of class. Fully badass.
You either have a case or you don’t. And you have preferences for the kind of case you want to adorn your phone, from clear to clearly hardcore and everything in between. That’s totally normal. But some companies fall a little under the radar and need an extra push getting the attention they deserve. RhinoShield’s products fall into that category.
For the Galaxy S9 series, the company has released two very [Read More…]
