Verizon on Monday announced its 5G network has gone live for customers living in Los Angeles, California. This marks the company’s 19th city to see the new ultra-fast network speeds and capabilities.

As is the case with other markets, Verizon’s 5G is incredibly fast but doesn’t offer a full blanket of coverage. Indeed, it’s mostly pockets of the city focused on dense populated and traffic areas such as downtown.

According to Verizon, its 5G Ultra Wideband is available in the following areas:

  • Downtown
  • Chinatown
  • Del Rey
  • Venice
  • Landmarks
    • Grand Park
    • Los Angeles Convention Center
    • Union Station
    • LA Live
    • Staples Center
    • Venice Beach Boardwalk

Verizon hasn’t offered up a coverage map for LA just yet but plans to do so on December 20. The carrier plans to provide 5G in 30 cities by the end of the year; we should expect nearly one dozen more markets over the last half of December.

AT&T 5G: Where is it available and which phones offer support?

When it comes to mobile phones and technology, it seems that most people like to look ahead to the next big thing. As if we’re not content with what we already have in our pocket, we spend time reading rumors, and speculation, looking at leaked photos.

One might argue that 5G is the next big thing for smartphones. While it’s still in its infancy, it’s the tech that won’t be going anywhere soon. Moreover, it’s the sort of thing that wireless providers are going to he hitting us over the head with for the foreseeable future.

Rightfully, there’s a lot of confusion around 5G. Which carrier has it where? What phones work with the service? What sort of technology is used? How do rate plans work?

In this piece we will clear up the first two questions: where is it, and which phones support it? Specifically, we’ll tackle AT&T, and periodically update the post as things evolve.

Where is AT&T 5G available?

As of today, AT&T offers 5G speeds in the following cities:

Pittsburgh

Indianapolis

Los Angeles

Providence

Milwaukee

Birmingham

San Francisco

San Jose

Rochester

San Diego

AT&T also offers what’s known as 5GE, or what it terms 5G Evolution as somewhat of a stop-gap measure between its 4G LTE and the 5G. One might think it’s faster than 4G, and that’s usually true. But, it’s not always the case. Select tests have shown that it’s actually slower in instances.

While AT&T might have a whole list of cities (500+) with support for its 5G+ coverage, its true 5G is in just 10 today.

According to AT&T, it plans to boost introduce 5G to parts of cities like Chicago, Cleveland, Minneapolis, and others. Further, it expects to have “nationwide 5G in the first half of 2020.”

Which AT&T phones support 5G?

When it comes to smartphones with support for AT&T 5G+, the carrier has but one phone to choose from: Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5G.

AT&T launches 5G network in 10 cities

AT&T on Friday announced that it has finally kicked off 5G service for consumers in select cities across the US.

As expected, it launched in Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Providence, RI, Rochester, NY, and San Diego. But, in a surprising move, the 5G service also makes its debut in another five markets: Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose, CA, Milwaukee, and Birmingham, AL.

AT&T, who appears to be moving ahead of its scheduled pace, plans to have a “nationwide” footprint by the middle of 2020. AT&T has released coverage maps for its 5G launch cities.

Looking ahead, AT&T has confirmed that its next 5G cities will include Boston, Bridgeport, Conn., Buffalo, N.Y., Las Vegas, Louisville, Ky., New York City, and other markets.

The new 5G is different from AT&T’s 5Ge (5G Evolution) and is more in line with what consumers might expect with a “next-gen” network. Indeed, it is certainly confusing, but essentially amounts to a speedier 4G LTE.

AT&T also has a 5G+ network live in select ares of a small number of cities. It’s even quicker and more robust, and is designed with businesses and collaborators in mind.

In terms of handsets with support for AT&T’s 5G network, the carrier has but one thus far — the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5G. Customers can purchase the device for $43.34 per month over 30 months, or buy it outright at $1,299.99.

NVIDIA Shield TV (2019) review

AndroidGuys

0

We’ll dispense with the fluff and pageantry and get right to it. When it comes to consuming media in the era of cord-cutting and all-you-can stream video, nothing beats Android TV. We might be a bit biased, but, to us, there’s no better way to manage all of the services and options.

Taking things a step further, nothing represents the Android TV better than NVIDIA’s Shield TV. If you have an otherwise “dumb” TV, you owe it to yourself to purchase an NVIDIA Shield.

The Android TV platform went through some growing pains in its first few years. It was promising stuff, but no one brand emerged as the premier player in the space. It worked, but it was sometimes wonky and there was no standard to be had.

NVIDIA Shield TV (2015)

Along came NVIDIA with its Shield TV, which offered up the best Android TV experience to date. Indeed, even its first generation console from 2015 is still the best way to take in content and play games. Four years on, and tons of software updates later, the NVIDIA Shield TV can’t be beat.

As 2019 comes to an end we find NVIDIA has upgraded the experience, bringing about two options. In one hand you have a lean, and more affordable device that is more than sufficient. In the other hand you have a more robust model that’s designed with gamers and expandability in mind.

We’ve had the fortune of testing out the new NVIDIA Shield TV and are more than pleased with the experience.

General Impressions

Setup couldn’t be any easier, even if your only experience with Android has been via phone. It’s literally a few minutes of your time and plugging in two cords. There’s the power cable and an HDMI that runs to your TV.

Power it up, follow the steps, and log in. After that it’s just a matter of adjusting your preferences and downloading apps from the Play Store. It was refreshing to start anew, and install games and apps.

The 2019 NVIDIA Shield TV takes up very little space on a stand. It’s almost deceiving how powerful and robust of an experience you get with something so small.

Many of the TVs we have in our home are “smart” and offer access to Netflix, Hulu, and other apps and services. Could we use their menu and remote to get much of the same content? Sure, but it’s nowhere near as cohesive and user-friendly.

No TV maker has the smarts or UI that can be achieved with Android TV. And even though there aren’t too many players in the space, NVIDIA is far and away the best at utilizing the platform.

NVIDIA goes in a different direction for the new remote
NVIDIA goes in a different direction for the new remote

We were initially really fond of the thin wafer-like remote that came with the first generation of the Shield TV. It had just enough buttons to get everything done, and nothing extra. Charged via microUSB cable, it was almost Apple-esque in its simplicity.

The 2019 remote is quite a departure, employing a more stick-like shape. It’s taller, thicker, and has a handful of additional buttons, including one dedicated to launching Netflix. This time around it uses AAA batteries.

At first we we torn by the design change but we quickly came to realize that it was a move in the right direction. First and foremost, we no longer lose the remote between couch cushions. That old, as great as it was, slipped between cushions, pillows, and seemed to wander off to often. The bigger remote hasn’t slipped between anything yet.

We also appreciate the motion-activated backlit buttons that light up just by grabbing it. Initially we felt like NVIDIA was being redundant by adding buttons for playback controls. Now, we find they’re more intuitive to control video on services like Amazon Prime movies.

Pairing another (game) controller to the Shield open up the door to games, something that the Shield TV handles very well. NVIDIA promoted the first generation around its entertainment and gaming capabilities. The 2019 successor is no less powerful and even offers up a Tegra X1+ processor.

MicroSD and HDMI ports on the Shield TV (2019)

Streaming video from any source is great in both video and audio. In terms of video support, you’ll find the Shield TV is 4K HDR Ready and allows for Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10. On the audio front are Dolby Audio (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Atmos)
DTS-X surround sound (pass-through) over HDMI, and Hi-Res audio.

Conclusion

We’ve never once had a problem with the previous Shield TV that can’t be solved with a reboot. And even then, we could count on one hand how many times we’ve had to do that in four years.

Thus far, the new model has proven to be sufficiently powerful, responsive, and all a typical person might want. The 8GB internal storage may sound small when compared to what you see on phones, but that’s plenty to install your favorite streaming services and other apps. Moreover, a microSD expansion card slot lets you add much more should you be more of a lean-in gamer as opposed to a lean-back consumer.

Given NVIDIA’s track record with support we already know what we can expect in the 2019 model. That is consistent, timely updates that rival what any phone maker has done.

At $150 we can’t say enough about what NVIDIA puts forth in the Shield TV. There may only be a few other standalone devices with Android TV in them, but nobody else comes close.

Availability

You can purchase the NVIDIA Shield TV for $150 at NVIDIA’s website. It’s also available at Amazon, Best Buy, and B&H Photo Video where it carries the same price.

Want an Amazon Echo Dot for 99-cents?

Given the time of year it’s not hard to find a discount on smart speakers and other gadgets. Google’s Nest Mini is cheap at $49 but it can be often found at $35 or lower.

The same goes for Amazon’s Alexa-powered Echo Dot. It’s a great bargain seven days a week even at its standard price. But, when you can get one for half price, it’s awesome. But, drop it down to just 99¢ and it’s nearly impossible to pass.

If you head over to Amazon right now, you can purchase an Amazon Echo Dot for under a buck. All you have to do is sign up for Amazon Music Unlimited subscription, which costs $7.99 for Amazon Prime members. If you’re a non-Prime subscriber, it will cost just $9.99 per month.

Whether it’s $9 or $11 you ultimately spend on the deal, it’s one hell of a steal for the third-generation Echo Dot. It comes with Alexa support and offers a solid sounding speaker experience.

If you haven’t started on your smart home yet, this is the cheapest way you can go about doing so. Or, if you’ve got a connected home in place, it’s a really inexpensive way of adding to it.

New Customers Only*

Amazon’s deal does have a key restriction in place; if you’re already a Music Unlimited subscriber, you can’t take advantage of the deal. With that in mind, if you’ve been on a trial in the past, or had been a Music Unlimited subscriber and quit, you should be able to sign up for the deal.

OnePlus 7T Review

Andrew Allen

OnePlus has been making great phones for years now, continually and regularly pumping out really solid devices with more affordable price tags. It certainly offers an interesting option for users who want performance but aren’t willing to spend $1,000 for a smartphone.

The OnePlus 7T marks a new device that may blur that line of the premium flagship even more. Here’s my review of the handset after having used it for multiple weeks.

The Good

Awesome Build

I was immediately impressed with how well built the OnePlus 7T was out of the box. If you cover the ‘OP’ logo on the back, this phone could easily be mistaken for a premium flagship from the likes of Samsung. You get a sharp glass back with a slightly matte finish surrounded by an aluminum side rail around the sides of the device.

Even the small details are there with the tactile feedback of the buttons. The power, volume rocker, and that glorious notification profile slider are all very stiff and offer a great response that you simply don’t see on many smartphones. You’d probably be surprised by how many pricier devices feature buttons that feel like an afterthought.

Display

The other part of the phone that quickly jumps out is when you power on the OnePlus 7T. Apart from the small teardrop for the front-facing camera, the 6.55″ screen takes up the entire top half of the OnePlus. It’s a 1,080 x 2,400 resolution panel with 402 ppi density and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

By far, the best part of the screen is the refresh rate. The 7T comes standard with the same 90Hz refresh rate that’s found in the OnePlus 7 Pro. It’s really hard to show or convey on the internet but does make the entire OS seem more responsive and snappier.

The combination leaves you with a great overall experience for the OP 7T. While not quite as impressive as the 7 Pro, you still get 87% screen-to-body-ratio. Colors are also well represented, and the viewing angles are really good both indoors and outdoors.

Pure Specs

OnePlus made its bones by mainly killing it on base hardware options at much less money, and the 7T is no different. The phone’s offered in 8GB of RAM and either 128 or 256GB of storage. This on-board storage is also a tick above the competition with UFS3.0 standard that with much faster write speeds to older devices.

Rounding it out, the OP 7T has a spec bump to the latest Qualcomm 855+ processor, paired with the Adreno 640 GPU. These hardware selections complete an engine that will serve mobile gamers and casual users alike. You should have zero questions around daily performance if you’re considering spending your hard-earned cash on the OnePlus 7T.

Clean Android

It’s been a few years since I’ve reviewed or owned a OnePlus. As a fan of “stock Android,” the small tweaks that OP offers with OxygenOS are mostly refreshing. Having the little options like swipe down to see notifications and the dismiss all icon for those notifications to be within reach at the bottom of the shade shows OnePlus takes feedback and user experience seriously.

The little options show OnePlus takes feedback and user experience seriously

OnePlus also offers great options for theming, icon tweaking, and overall performance alterations. It’s very customizable but toes the line and isn’t overwhelming. It has a nice balance without getting into an old Touchwiz-type bloat. You can still find all the default settings like you’d see on a Pixel without getting lost in Settings.

Otherwise, you get every great feature of Android 10 with the OnePlus 7T. It’s actually the first OEM to launch a new device with the latest version freshly installed as the base day one installation. I won’t go into a full review of Android 10, but you get the great refreshed OS version with the new gesture navigation being the most user forward feature.

Decent Battery Life

This one is always subjective, but also worth mentioning for users. My personal usage tends to trend towards an average of 2-3 hours of screen on-time for most days. With that, I never got home with under 50% battery during a workweek. When I consciously pushed the OnePlus 7T to between 4-5 hours of on-time, I was finally able to kill it before around 11 pm.

Again, this metric will vary from each owner to another, but coming from the Pixel 3 XL, I’d only averaged around 3-4 hours of screen on-time on my heaviest days without reaching for an outlet. It was nice to use the OP 7T without always pondering topping off the battery throughout the day.

WarpCharge

That brings me to the adjacent battery spec: WarpCharge. OnePlus’ proprietary fast charge option pushes an amazing 30W of max charging output. This insane amount of power surge will take the OnePlus from dead to 70% charge in just 30 minutes. Normally I would dismiss this as the same type of remarks we see from OEMs all the time, but my testing shows this is pretty close to reality.

The Bad

Camera

I struggled on which section of the review to place the three-headed camera module on the OnePlus 7T. Saying the 48MP main shooter is bad isn’t taking a holistic approach, but my final answer is that it’s still not good enough.

The Pixel set the bar of flagship camera results a few years ago. This year the iPhone introduced a much-improved camera that many feel has surpassed the Pixels. In a vacuum, the OP 7T has a good camera, but when compared to the strides others are making they are just good and not great.

The main sensor still just struggles to get as sharp and detailed results as other smartphones on the market. In my findings it has a hard time focusing as quickly or steadying the shot as Pixels and Galaxies. I really had to consciously still my hand and make an attempt to make sure the shot was going to be good. By comparison, I can just point and shoot with the competition.

The OP 7T does beat the new Pixels with sheer options with a 2nd telephoto lens and a widescreen lens. Again, this offers selections in flexibility, but the results are just OK. As you focus the shots either with the 2x telephoto or you widen the shot with the widescreen sensor you are taking in more details that the OP has a hard time rendering in post-shot processing.

All the camera options do push the OP 7T past the companies previous offerings, which is always positive. Unfortunately, they still fall behind its competition. This continues the debate at the core of OnePlus values. Users will have to make the choice of whether the camera is good enough at the price to not force them to shop elsewhere.

Memory Management

OnePlus has a long history on Reddit and XDA of user complaints concerning its choices on memory management. I haven’t really had an issue with this, but I did see questionable results when using the OnePlus 7T. I don’t really have an issue of closing some actively open apps in the multitasking view, but I did see issues with background apps not receiving notifications.

This issue was hard to accept for me. The great thing about smartphones as opposed to older desktop are active notifications. Users have the ability to receive pertinent information from apps whether they are open or not.

Unfortunately, I consistently saw apps that I depend on within my family’s circle not notify me efficiently as with other Android devices. Our security cameras, doorbell, and family app Life360 all had long delays when compared to my Pixel as well as the BlackBerry Key2 LE that I kept as secondary phones. I’d like to see OnePlus work on scaling this back to get a better balance for background services.

I’d also make a solid assumption that this may lead to some of the issues the OnePlus line exhibits with Android Auto as well. I saw way too many lock-ups and crashes on trips longer than 30 minutes with the OnePlus. There are multiple theories around the web concerning this, but if OxygenOS is killing apps in the background too quickly, then Auto may be another service casualty.

No Wireless Charging or Official IPX Rating

While these are not necessary for a “flagship,” wireless charging an official IPX rating are more commonplace than not with a modern smartphone. This should especially be so with a company sporting the motto of “Never Settle” directly on the phone.

Can you live without the cordless charger? Sure. Does it break the deal that it’s not rated for water and dust resistance? Maybe. I’d just like to see it included as the price of the OnePlus devices continues to rise. And not only that, but users have been asking for years for these additions.

Final Thoughts

I really enjoy using the OnePlus 7T. It hits so many sweet spots for me as an Android user. Clean OS using mostly stock software. Great build and 90Hz screen. Timely updates in comparison to some others. Oh, and the price is totally palatable.

However, I still struggle with the OnePlus as a total package. For the “Never Settle” brand, you still have to make some choices. While this is somewhat true with no one making a “perfect” Android phone, the struggles of the camera, lack of Qi charging, and the background apps issues are enough for me personally question it as a daily driver.

Much like battery life, personal usage and preferences play a huge role in consumer choice of smartphone purchases. Despite its issues I have, the OnePlus 7T is one of my favorite devices of 2019 and deserves to be on your shortlist. Many users will find this a great value option for their next Android device.

Availability

You can purchase the OnePlus 7T from the OnePlus website for $599. It’s also available at T-Mobile and Gearbest.

Xcentz Smart Wireless Camera review

AndroidGuys

Adding security cameras to a house in 2019 is an entirely different experience than it was just a few years back. Homeowners no longer need to hire an electrician or spend hundreds of dollars just to install a camera or two. It’s easier, and cheaper, than ever.

There are plenty of options available to consumers which provide high definition video and security, if not just peace of mind. For well under a hundred dollars we can get eyes on our pets or loved ones.

Take the Xcentz Security Camera, for instance. Priced just $50, it’s an HD camera that works well in pretty much any room of the house. Available in black or white, it makes for a solid baby monitor or effective way to stay in touch with elders.

What is the Xcentz Security Camera?

A small and unobtrusive wireless camera, it provides a 360 degree view of environments. It fully rotates left or right and offers up to 100 degree vertical rotation.

Features in the camera include 8X digital zoom, Super IR LED night vision, two-way audio, motion detection, and the ability to record content locally (microSD card) or in the cloud. If you’ve looked into this space before, you’ll note it has a familiar design.

What’s in the box?

  • Xcentz Security Camera
  • USB cable and charger
  • Wall mount w/screws and anchors
  • User manual

Who is the Xcentz Security Camera for?

Considering its price and flexibility, we can see a wide number of use cases. Parents of newborns will appreciate the ease in which they can not only see, but hear, what’s going on in the nursery or bedroom.

It’s not unreasonable to consider a family putting a couple of these throughout the house, perhaps aimed at doorways. The night vision makes it appealing as a way to keep watch over a garage.

Pet owners might also want to put one of these in a room with food and water, laundry rooms, basements, and other places where animals tend to congregate. The two-way mic also makes it simple to say hello or reassure them if they seem to get anxious.

Other places that might benefit from the camera include play rooms, small businesses, offices, and sheds.

Our thoughts

We like this camera for a number of reasons, starting with its wallet-friendly price tag. Whereas a few years back it might have cost a couple hundred dollars to add a camera to your home, today that much money gets your three or four of them. And even better, they’re easy to setup, configure, and use.

The camera is small enough that it fits on bookshelves, dressers, night stands, desks, and end tables. In terms of footprint, it doesn’t take up any more space than a can of soda.

If you want to place your camera up out of the way, or on the wall, the kit comes with a couple of screws and anchors. It might take all of two minutes to physically install one of these.

The camera works well for checking in on your home when away, sure. But what about when there’s a break-in or something more pressing happens? Motion detection kicks in and starts recording video, and alerts are sent to your phone.

If you have an Amazon Echo Show, you can ask Alexa to show you the room. It’s as easy as adding an Alexa Skill. Viewing from a phone is nice, but it’s even nicer when you can glance over your shoulder and see what’s going on down the hall.

Should I buy the Xcentz Security Camera?

Yes. It’s definitely worth exploring if you’re looking to start with home security. It’s priced affordably and is easy to set up, two things which matter quite a bit. The camera doesn’t stick out and its design matches any environment.

Where can I buy the Xcentz Security Camera?

As of today, you can purchase the Xcentz Security Camera at Amazon. It’s relatively newer and has not been added to the brand’s website just yet – at least as of the time of publication. You can learn more about the camera on Amazon and/or buy it in black or white. Pricing is just $50.
