[ad_1] However, Android Police reported that the phone would be “fully Verizonified.” For better and worse, that means it’ll come with the carrier’s suite of apps and experiences preloaded onto the device. If the report is accurate, it’ll be interesting to see how OnePlus tries to reconcile the decision to allow Verizon to install apps […]

Verizon is delaying its home 5G internet rollout again
[ad_1] The equipment for which Verizon’s biding its time will be able to receive 5G signals from transmitters that are much further away than current gear and routers can connect to, executive Ronan Dunne said (as reported by Light Reading). Once those devices are available, Verizon will be able to significantly expand the 5G Home […]
CES 2020: What to expect
[ad_1] Screens of all shapes and sizes It wouldn’t be CES without being surrounded by a plethora of screens, and 2020 looks to be no different. Like in years past, expect there to be bigger and better TV screens on display (no pun intended). Take 8K, for example. No one really needs an 8K television […]
AT&T’s real 5G comes to NYC and five other cities
[ad_1] As with the earlier rollout, this should deliver meaningful coverage. NYC is virtually blanketed in 5G, for example, while Las Vegas’ access expands well past the main city. The deployment brings AT&T’s normal 5G coverage up to 19 cities, and its millimeter wave access to 25 cities. It also underscores AT&T’s middle-of-the-road approach to […]
The worst tech of 2019
[ad_1] Facebook, Amazon and other Silicon Valley failures Nicole LeeSenior Editor If 2018 was the year that the world turned on big tech, then 2019 was the year that tech became more like a villain. Sure, companies like Facebook, Google and Amazon would say they do a world of good by bringing people together, serving […]
Verizon met its 2019 5G coverage goals, but only just
[ad_1] You see, the Columbus airport coverage only extends to parts of the main ticketing area — you can’t even use 5G at your gate. It’s not surprising given that ultra wideband 5G is short-ranged and sensitive to interference (it can’t cover a whole stadium just yet), but it could be a while before you […]
Flickr owner: We need more paying subscribers to keep this going
[ad_1] Flickr first showed signs of trouble when it started limiting free users to 1,000 photos and videos earlier this year, likely in an effort to convert them into paying subscribers. Now, MacAskill is taking a more direct approach and asking free users to sign up for a paid subscription. He’s also asking current Pro […]
Verizon 5G goes live in parts of Miami and five other cities
[ad_1] Other rollouts tend to focus on sports arenas, schools, hospitals and airports. Combined with a rollout to Memphis on December 19th, this launch gives Verizon 28 cities with at least a basic level of 5G, and just two more cities left before it reaches its target. This isn’t what we’d call comprehensive service, though. […]
Verizon 5G goes live in parts of Los Angeles
[ad_1] Verizon (Engadget’s parent company) is still rushing to meet its 5G coverage goals for the year, and it just crossed another big city off its list. The carrier has launched 5G ultra wideband access in Los Angeles, including areas in downtown, Chinatown, Del Rey and Venice. As elsewhere, though, you’ll have to stick to […]
A ‘Snow Crash’ TV series is coming to HBO Max
[ad_1] There’s no tentative release schedule, and it’s clearly too soon to learn who’ll play characters like Hiro Protagonist and YT. This may have been in the works for a while, though. There has been talk for months of resurrecting attempts to bring Snow Crash to screens following a failed attempt to make a movie. […]
