This year we expect both Samsung flagships, the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus to come boasting a dual curved screen display. When the original Galaxy Note Edge was released in 2014, most people assumed the curved displays will turn out to be a fad. But as it turns out it’s 2017 and Samsung has not one but two dual curved screen phones coming up.
But apart from the mighty Korean conglomerate, there aren’t many companies offering dual curved phones. LG and Xiaomi were rumored to be working on similar models, but nothing came of it in the end.
Well this week, we’re getting word that the upcoming OnePlus 5 might come a dual-curved edge display just like the current Galaxy S7. It’s not the first time we’re hearing that after the OnePlus 3T, the company will jump straight to OnePlus 5 and not OnePlus 4 due to “tetraphobia”. In Asian countries, the number 4 is considered unlucky, so that’s why we’re probably not going to see an OnePlus 4.
The current rumor also claims the OnePlus 5 will come boasting a ceramic body a la Xiaomi Mi MIX – which is something we heard before. On top of that, the device should feature a 23MP main camera (although a dual camera setup might also be an option) and a 16MP selfie snapper in front. A 4,000 mAh battery will power the device, which will feature either 6GB or 8GB of RAM and a new 256GB storage option.
Given that the OnePlus 3T already has 6GB of RAM, we can expect the OnePlus 5 to come boasting 8GB instead. As for processor, it can be speculated OnePlus will push the launch of the upcoming flagship for some time later this year in order to be able to get the Snapdragon 835.
For the time being, Samsung has reserved all existing Snapdragon 835 units for the Galaxy S8, thus leaving other Android OEMs with the option of using last year’s Snapdragon 821 (at least for the time being).
Anyway, take this info with a grain of salt for the time being, as nothing has been officially confirmed.
This week OpenSignal launched a new app called Meteor which lets users know which apps will work well on the speed available on their network.
Yes, there are quite a few solutions available for network speed testing including 
While most apps will simply display the amount MB/s or KB/s flowing through the connection, they don’t translate what that means for user experience. Here’s where OpenSignal hopes to fill in the gap with its new Meteor app.
However we should note that the app doesn’t rate every app out there. Still it features an extensive list which includes some of the most popular Android apps out there including Chrome, Dropbox, Amazon, Facebook, Flipboard, Gmail, Google Maps, Instagram, Skype, Spotify Music, Street View, Twitter, Uber, Waze, WhatsApp and YouTube.
OpenSignal is open to feedback from users, so if an app will be requested enough it will probably make it into Meteor’s list.
On top of that, the company said it will soon launch game-related pages in the 
And if that’s not enough, Google will start letting developers adjust their own prices and run promotions on their own. The search giant found that during the testing phases, developers noticed an increase of up 20 more downloads during the deal periods. The option will be available starting this week via the Google Play Developer Console.
Nokia says it has brought Android onboard in order to cater to the needs of consumers, who have been asking for this for a while now. But the Android market is very competitive today, so will Nokia’s slew of Android devices be able to make it?
So how do the new Nokia phones feel? At MWC 2017 we had the chance to play with them a little bit and here’s our first impressions. First off, let’s start with the Nokia 6 which is the top of the line device.
Case in point, the Nokia 6 doesn’t look like your average budget phone. It’s manufactured from a block of aluminum with diamond cut edges. When you hold the phone in your hand it gives you a very industrial, metallic feel. The sharp edges are also a good combination for the matte aluminum body. The phones bet on a Norse design – characterized by almost monastic simplicity, utility and beauty.
The Nokia 6 features a 5.5-inch display which spacious but not too big. Viewing angles, as far as we can see are pretty good. The phone has a physical home button where the fingerprint scanner lives.
When it comes to specs, the Nokia 6 isn’t mind-blowing, but it does offer enough. We have a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution, 3GB of RAM (for the normal variant) or 4GB of RAM (for the limited edition) and 32GB of internal storage (for the normal variant) and 64GB of internal storage (for the limited edition). The device features a microSD card slot.
Anyhow, the phone has a main 16MP camera with dual tone flash and an 8MP selfie shooter with wide angle lens and auto-focus.
The phone also it features an affordable price ($242 for the matte black, silver, blue or copper Nokia 6 and $315 for Nokia 6 Arte Black), but as we mentioned above we would have liked to see a better processor onboard.
Like the Nokia 6, the Nokia 5 features a physical home button with an embedded fingerprint sensor and relies on the Snapdragon 430 to keep the lights on. It takes advantage of only 2GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage (microSD card slot available). Nokia also bundled a 13MP main camera with f/2.0, phase detection autofocus and dual-LED flash plus an 8MP wide-angle selfie camera.
Last but not least, comes the Nokia 3. It’s the most affordable one in the bunch and should start selling for around $147. The Nokia 3 isn’t made of metal like its brothers, instead it offers a polycarbonate body and an aluminum frame. It looks sleek nevertheless.
The Nokia 3 has a MediaTek MT6737 chipset under the hood (quad-core 1.4GHz Cortex-A53) which is paired with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage (microSD cardslot available). In the photography department, the Nokia 3 has an 8MP main camera with autofocus/LED flash and an 8MP selfie shooter.
Nokia says that 45% of people tend to shop in the budget segment and that’s why they have chosen to cater to this sector first. But while the new Nokia phones look and feel great, they are still far from being a flagship. While the company hasn’t confirmed it has plans to launch such a device, we’re hoping Nokia will unveil a worthy Galaxy S8 competitor sometimes later this year. A successful 
Now the candy bar feature phone is coming back with a modern take. The new Nokia 3310 is small, colorful and looks like a lot of fun. It’s slimmer than its predecessor and you can barely feel its weight in your hand. And like its predecessor it offers long standing battery life – 25.3 days in standby mode and up to 22.1 hours of talk time..
The phone is built on the S30+ operating platform (developed by MediaTek for Nokia) and offers all the basic features you’d expect including voice and text messaging, Internet browsing (via the Opera Mini browsers), music listening, a camera, two SIM slots and of course Snake.
Sure, you won’t be able to run any fancy apps and there’s no touchscreen onboard. But that’s not really the point with the modern Nokia 3310 is it? Actually the feature phone constitutes a welcome relief from all smartphone galore we’ve seen for the past few days.
The cute, little phone with a color display will be made available for purchase for approximately $51. You’ll be able to grab it in red and yellow with gloss finish and polycarbonate exterior or dark blue and grey with matte finish. Are you getting one? We know we are!
grid vary; and they require you to figure the correct combination of cue strikes in order to get the ball in the pocket. This includes using the same cue more than once, and sometimes using the same more than once in a row. With these multiple cues also comes a shot limit per level, so you are confined to a finite number of shots to succeed.
calling “bot tiles”, that have a number and direction imprinted on them. Upon striking the ball to these tiles, the ball is redirected in the direction and distance as shown.
Along the bottom you have a settings button (audio, volume, vibration, buy options), and a level menu in which to pick from any level you’ve previously beaten. You can also pick from several themes: light & dark are free, but others such as ‘daisy’ and ‘graphite’ are $1 each.
Sony has also added in predictive technology to start capturing whenever it sees movement. This will allow you to capture video right at the start of the action, rather than when your fingers actually hit the record button. This also works for pictures as the phone will take up to four shots from the start of the action until when you snap the shutter.
You may remember that Sony has 
The display for the XA1 measures in at 5-inches with a resolution of 720p. Powering the XA1 is the MediaTek Helio P20 processor, along with 3GB of RAM, and up to 32GB of expandable storage.
