This morning the latest release of Pokemon GO included imagery of Shiny Trapinch and crew. This Pokemon is not strictly new - it was first released in the Hoenn region, Generation 3, back with Pokemon Ruby and Pokemon Sapphire. This Pokemon will appear in a Trapinch Community Day as well, inside October with additional bonuses. Also note: Legendary Raid Hour was cancelled for today!
There's a Samsung phone launching today with a battery larger than that of the iPhone 11 Pro Max* at a fraction of that phone's price. This is the Samsung Galaxy M10s, and it's not going to be released inside the United States. This phone is also the first at this low a price to launch with a Super AMOLED display.
Today we're expanding our list of Pokemon GO Gen 5 Unova Pokemon available in the wild and in Pokemon eggs. This expansion to Pokemon GO began earlier this week and will continue to evolve well through the future. From day one - Monday of this week - we've been seeing more and more new Pokemon appearing. It may be that we're just noticing more as we go, but it could also be that Niantic's releasing new Pokemon each day - let's take a look!
Remember the days when third-party virtual keyboards for smartphones were the craze? No? How about the time before TV? Fleksy seemingly wants to take a stroll down memory lane to make the case for its latest Fleksyapp, a.k.a. mini addons that give that Android keyboard a bit more functionality. By partnering with VBoard, that "bit more" becomes searching for and even playing videos while you type out messages to your friends about, what else, those videos playing above your keyboard.
For all their power and capabilities, smartphones are severely limited by their batteries that, in turn, dictate how long they can remain useful in a day. Battery technology hasn't exactly progressed as fast as other components and, until the day it does, both consumers and manufacturers are at the mercy of band-aid solutions like power banks and fast charging. The latter is especially important for users that don't want to carry bulky banks but also want as little downtime as possible. To that end, OPPO is announcing three new flash charge technologies to alleviate the pain of hugging walls.
Samsung has received a lot of flack for its slow updates, partially due to its heavily modified Android experience. In truth, it was hardly the only one and, since the Stagefright vulnerability, it has turned over a new leaf. One of the worst offenders of late is, ironically, one of Google's closest partners. Now more than two years after it launched and just as its software support period lapsed, the company is finally pushing Android 9 Pie to LG V30 owners in the US.
The Pixel 4 has had its time in the spotlight as far as leaks go. Huawei, however, has an event scheduled this Thursday so it is grabbing attention away from Google for a while. Unsurprisingly, unofficial information also abounds for the Mate 30 Pro and its siblings. There's always room for more, of course, but unfortunately, not all news is good news, especially for those in Europe dying to get their hands on the latest from the embattled Chinese manufacturer.
The Huawei Mate 30 Pro is a phone that's already been extensively leaked, but today, we're getting some new hands-on images of the phone. As with most leaks that deal with devices spotted in the real world, the pictures that surfaced today aren't the highest quality, likely due to the fact that they were taken in haste. Still, they show the phone from the front and back, giving us a good idea of what it will look like when it arrives.
Today we're going to guide you through the various ins and outs of the first release of Gen 5 in Pokemon GO - Unova Region! This is the first week in which the Unova Region Pokemon are available in the wild, starting on September 16, 2019 - after that, everything we're talking about here will be available for all! Let's begin with eggs, and the first 15x Pokemon from Unova - including Shiny Pokemon!
The back side of the newest OnePlus device was revealed today by none other than the CEO of the company Pete Lau. "Our brand new design," said Lau, "with 4th-generation matte-frosted glass." He released images of the device on social media - here on Twitter - and linked to a post in the OnePlus forums with a URL shortener that included the phrase "No detail too small." The name of the article was "OnePlus Design: No detail is too small to be perfected."
For the past two years or so, there have been rumors of Samsung either merging the Galaxy S and Galaxy Note lines or axing the latter. Galaxy Note users find that proposal almost unacceptable, especially considering it might involve "downgrading" their beloved line to a smartphone without an S Pen. But considering Samsung's trends from the past years, that might actually be the inevitable and best outcome, provided it does make one concession towards lovers of the productive and creative stylus.
OnePlus may be relatively new in the game compared to fellow Chinese manufacturers but it has one important advantage over the likes of Xiaomi or Vivo or even Huawei. It is available to US buyers and, as of last year, even from T-Mobile. That's just one US carrier among many, however, and its exclusivity with one carrier may be hurting OnePlus' chances at even bigger sales in the country. Fortunately, it seems that OnePlus is moving to indeed expand its reach starting with Verizon.
