Google will ask European Android users what browser they want to use
[ad_1] In addition to this latest move, Google also created separate licenses for Google Play, Chrome and Search after the commission revealed its decision. That allowed phonemakers to install any app they want to serve as alternatives to Google’s own applications, thereby serving as a direct response to the EU’s charge. Google incurred the massive […]
Leaked Galaxy Fold pops up in a video with a significant seam
[ad_1] A rumor from Bloomberg suggested a visible crease is bound to form once the Fold’s screen is flexed more than 10,000 times — a far cry from the 200,000 figure Samsung touted — and might cause the company to offer free replacement screens. It’s obviously unclear what this device has been through so far, […]
Pandora Modes gives you more listening options for music stations
[ad_1] When listening to a Pandora station based on a song or an artist, you’ll have five different modes available.

Xiaomi’s Black Shark 2 gaming phone packs a pressure-sensitive display
[ad_1] The pressure-sensitive feature isn’t the only thing this display has going for it. The 6.39-inch AMOLED display is designed to reduce screen flicker at low brightness, improve color accuracy and reduce touch latency. While adding buttons to your screen might slow you down in some games, that shouldn’t be too much of a problem […]
ZTE’s all-screen Axon S phone could slide to hide its side cameras
[ad_1] Many of the phone’s specs aren’t available, although the Axon S would include 48- and 19-megapixel rear cameras, one of which would offer 5X optical zoom. You could also expect an OLED display, an under-the-screen fingerprint reader and 5G in some markets. The Axon V you see below would go a very different direction. […]
FCC clears path for terahertz wireless data
[ad_1] The measure also sets aside 21.2GHz of spectrum to share for unlicensed devices. The airwaves in question were chosen to minimize possible interference with current “governmental and scientific” uses in those areas, such as space science.

Two thirds of Android antivirus apps don’t work properly
[ad_1] In some cases, the failure is a simple one: they’re not really scanning app code. AV-Comparatives found that are just using app whitelists or blacklists, and sometimes very broad ones at that.
