[ad_1] As ever, it’s a good idea to back up your device before updating. When you do, though, you’ll get access to a bevy of new features. Alongside the aforementioned ones, app downloads and updates will be significantly smaller, and will launch twice as quickly. Face ID unlocks will be about 30 percent zippier too. […]

Huge leak spoils Huawei’s Mate 30 event
[ad_1] According to Android Headlines, the Huawei Watch GT 2 will come in four color styles and two sizes: 42mm with a 1.2-inch AMOLED display, and 46mm with a 1.39-inch AMOLED display. It appears that the smaller version doesn’t come with a mic, which suggests no LTE either — perhaps this is intended to be […]
Apple Watch Series 5 features an always-on display
[ad_1] The Apple Watch Series 5 was introduced by Stan Ng, which for the first time features an always-on LTPO Retina Display with variable refresh rates. That means it no longer goes completely dark when your wrist is lowered, making it easy to check the time without people noticing. The device also features for the […]
Watch Apple’s 2019 iPhone event here at 1PM ET
[ad_1] A few things seem certain at this event. It’s safe to presume Apple will introduce the iPhone 11 family with more rear cameras (two on the XR replacement, three on the XS/XS Max sequels), improved Face ID and maybe, possibly two-directional wireless charging. You’ll also likely hear about release dates for iOS 13, iPadOS, […]
What’s next for fitness wearables?
[ad_1] The simplest way a wearable can track your activity is by using a gyroscope (or similar) to track the position of your hand in three-dimensional space. It can then, algorithmically, infer where your body is, and what it — and you — are doing, using what is essentially very smart guesswork. Pedometers that count […]
Audio-Technica’s $99 true wireless earbuds sound amazing
[ad_1] I immediately noticed the small size of the ATH-CK3TW buds themselves. These things are pretty tiny, which means the included charging case is also quite compact. Even with the smaller size, Audio-Technica didn’t leave out on-board controls. There are touch options on each side that allow you control volume, skip tracks and take calls. […]
Diesel and Emporio Armani also release new Wear OS watches
[ad_1] Each of these devices is styled in the aesthetic that’s inline with its brand. The Emporio Armani watch, for example, has a lighter, sportier look and prominently features the signature eagle logo on custom watch faces. Meanwhile, the Diesel On Axial looks more industrial, with touches like rugged pushers, steel rivets, an aluminum core […]
Withings’s Move ECG is stylish fitness watch with a killer price
[ad_1] The Move ECG is, like almost all of Withings’ products, a hybrid analog watch and fitness tracker. The most notable feature this time is the built-in ECG, enabling you to make rudimentary measurements of your heart’s health while on the go. Until this week, there weren’t that many smart ECG watches on the market, […]
Puma’s first smartwatch was designed for athletes
[ad_1] Since it was created as a training and exercise companion like Michael Kors’ MKGO, the design has a lightweight construction that uses nylon and aluminum for its casing. It comes with a grippy and breathable textured silicone strap, and it relies on Google Fit to track users’ heart rates, workouts and other activities like […]
Garmin’s pretty Venu watches pack a long-awaited AMOLED upgrade
[ad_1] Garmin is attempting to make full use of the 1.2-inch 390 x 390 AMOLED panel by enabling live watch faces, and I quite liked the billowing cloud animation that I saw on our demo unit. The company also updated its OS slightly to feature a health stats page that you can access by swiping […]
