Xiaomi may be best known for the high-end, low-budget phones that it produces, but the company is also responsible for a plethora of additional electronic products. Today the Beijing headquartered company has revealed yet another mouthwatering product to add to its growing lineup; a super-thin 4K TV that measures in at just 9.9mm thick.
iPhone and iPad users have become accustomed to receiving an app for free every week, courtesy of the App Store team. Recently, Google has follow suit by introducing a similar promotion onto its Play Store for owners of Android devices. This week, both Apple and Google are offering up exciting games as part of their respective promotions.
These days, it seems it has become sort of a trend in the tech world for companies that don't usually make smartphones to jump onto the bandwagon, with Kodak being a prime example here. This is further made easy thanks to the open-source nature of Android. Not wanting to stay behind, Marshall - the company that made a name for itself in the world of guitar amps - has announced its own Android smartphone. What's unique about this device is the fact that it's aimed directly at audiophiles, with music-focused features that will put to shame even the top of the line flagships of today (but only in the music department, of course).
Apple is reportedly planning to introduce an Apple SIM-like solution for the iPhone lineup, and is already in talks with various cellular carriers to make it happen. That's not all, it appears that Samsung is also part of these talks looking to bring an e-SIM solution to its own Galaxy lineup of devices.
Android is a pretty great platform, but it isn't truly built for everyday desktop computing, or at least that's what we've been led to believe. However, it is a platform with massive customization potential, and that's the idea behind Jide Tech's new device, dubbed the "first true Android PC."
Samsung may still be one of the largest smartphone vendors out there at the moment but the company undeniably has a lot of improvement to make after suffering its seventh consecutive early loss in profits. After pinning its hopes on the Galaxy S6, Samsung is now hoping that the soon-to-be-released Galaxy Note 5 will make a worldwide impact on its profits. In addition to that, the company has also taken the opportunity to introduce the extremely stylish and new Galaxy A8 smartphone in China today.
If you're looking to treat yourself this year with a new smartphone then it may be worth looking beyond the usual considerations. Sure, we already know we will be getting the iPhone 6s this September. We also know that it's extremely likely that Samsung will attempt to spoil Apple's party by launching its fifth-generation Galaxy Note 5 a month earlier in August. But if you want to step away from the iPhones and Galaxy phones of this world and try something new, why not consider the new Turing Phone, the world's first smartphone with a fully liquidmetal shell.
It's almost the time of year where everyone releases their big new flagship smartphones, and one of the phones most eagerly anticipated is the Galaxy Note 5 from Samsung. The next in Samsung's line of over-sized smartphones, the Galaxy Note 5 is expected to get its debut at IFA 2015 and is likely to be one of the biggest releases of the year.
The 'Battle of the Sixes' report has been published by and it makes for some interesting reading. GameBench created the report as an opportunity to create the "first objective comparison of the Apple iPhone 6 and the Samsung Galaxy S6 on the basis of real-world gaming performance." Put simply, if you're heavily into high-end mobile gaming on your smartphone, are you better off investing in Apple's iPhone 6 or Samsung's Galaxy S6? It seems that last year's iPhone 6 is still capable of edging out this year's competition by a good 10% "average lead."
Samsung, creator of the famous Galaxy S Series of devices and one of the largest smartphone vendors in the world, is reportedly so anxious about the upcoming release of Apple's iPhone 6s that it's rushing to try and hit the market with its own next-generation "phablet" - the Galaxy Note 5.
