Samsung has lied customers for water resistant phones

Australian Consumer Protection Authorities sued Korean electronics giant Samsung Electronics for lying to consumers by promoting Galaxy phones that can be used under water.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

The world’s largest smartphone maker probably did not know or did not adequately test the exposure of the phones in salt water, although the ads that Samsung has published show the phones completely under water by the authorities.

The case is the first by such an important regulator and may result in multi-million dollar fines. The lawsuit runs around 300 Samsung ads where the company showed Galaxy phones being used at the bottom of the pool or in the sea.

Samsung said it was sticking to advertising and would defend the case. The Korean electronics giant has spent huge fortunes to build public confidence in premium phones after the costly failure of Galaxy Note 7 in 2016.

It is not the first time that Samsung is criticized. In 2016, Consumer Reports said the Galaxy S7, which appeared in ads under water, had failed in some tests. The company attributed a production defect that affected only a limited number of phones and was rapidly fixed.

Australian authorities said that Samsung displayed Galaxy phones by being used in extreme situations simply to attract the attention of consumers. There are altogether 300 advertisements with violations and any violations endangers a fine of $7 million.

Forget the iPhone 11, next-generation iPhone is revealed (PHOTO)

Is Apple changing things? After the ugly iPhone 2019‘s design now, a report really reveals that Apple is designing a very different iPhone, which millions of people will want.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

The Chinese Global Times reports that Apple will launch a new budget iPhone that removes Face IDs in favor of a fingerprint touch ID sensor on the screen.

The phone is rumored to be launching first in China, but has the potential to go around the world.

Few details are known about this iPhone at this stage, but the Global Times source says the motivation for the phone is to “save costs” while struggling to win the Chinese market share.

In recent years, domestic brands Huawei, Oppo and Vivo have taken control of it.

This move would make sense. Global Times notes that over 85% of the Chinese market belongs to priced phones under $580.

Apple had previously covered the Chinese market with the iPhone SE when it started at only $399, but the company’s later strategy to fill the gap with older iPhone’s does not seem to have worked.

Samsung has fixed Galaxy Fold

The foldable phone is expected to enter into commercial production very fast. However Samsung is not yet ready to confirm a debut date.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

People close to Bloomberg said Galaxy Fold is unlikely to arrive next to Galaxy Note 10 next month. According to the report Samsung has made the screen protector enter beneath the phone corners so it can not be removed.

The previous units had a protector that looks like a normal screen protector that could be removed, but actually removing it destroyed the screen. Some phones created a wrinkle which then broke the OLED panel. It is unknown whether Samsung has modified the folding axis.

The only thing we know is that Galaxy Fold will be back this year and when it arrives it will take a bit of criticism.

LG G8S Global Launch Confirmed

Many LG fans have been looking for G8S ThinQ, however, the company has kept it directly out of the reach of the world.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

LG introduced this device in Taiwan, where it has remained exclusive for some time now. However, the wait for LG fans is finally over. The company has confirmed it is now launching the LG G8S ThinQ globally.

As the name suggests, the LG G8S is a bit different from the G8. It’s more or less the same device with some minor changes and an extra camera. While the LG G8 has only two rear cameras, the G8S has a standard, wide system, and a telephoto camera at the back. There is also a Z-Camera depth sensor at the front for facial and gesture recognition.

LG also increased the screen size from 6.1 to 6.2 inches but lowered the resolution from 1440p to 1080p. The panel itself is still OLED. Core specifications remain the same, however, with a Snapdragon 855 processor coupled with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.

LG will offer the black and white device later this month in Latin America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Price information will be revealed at launch.

The big upcoming update on Windows 10 will be in reality very small

During a year, Microsoft sends two major updates to Windows 10 and has been doing so since 2017, and has now confirmed that the second update for 2019, 19H2, will only bring performance improvements, enterprise capabilities, and quality improvements.

> Check Out: The first Windows 10 update for 2019 arrives: What are the news?

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

The good news is that installing this update will be as if they were the monthly updates that Microsoft sends. As a result, they are not expected to cause any disruption to the user’s agenda during installation.

The beta testers in the Windows 10 Insider program on the “Slow Ring” will receive today’s first 19H2 experimental versions without any visual changes. The update should be finalized by September and provided to all users.

It remains to be seen whether this update will bring the future of “fast updates” promised by Microsoft.

The Galaxy Note 10 debut finally has a date

Samsung has confirmed the existence of Galaxy Note 10, the phone that will succeed Galaxy Note 9 launched in August last year. Speaking at a roundtable, CEO of Samsung Mobile DJ Koh in response to a question about Bixby said that “Note 10 will be another stage for Bixby.”

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

According to CNET, Samsung’s phone will debut on August 7, 2019. It is about a year since the debut of Note 9, which was officially introduced on August 9, 2018.

Note 10 is expected to cost between $1,100 and $1,200. There are also two models of Note 10 this year: a premium Note 10 Pro model and a more affordable Note 10 in the same way that Samsung launched Galaxy S10 Plus and S10e on Mars.

Also 4G and 5G versions of Note 10 will be provided as reported. There have been numerous speculation on design, cameras and components but are expected to come close to the design philosophy of the Galaxy S10 and S10 Plus.

Google gets the green light for Android licensing at Huawei

It has not been a month since the United States imposed a ban on US companies doing business with Huawei citing national security concerns.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

Two days ago President Trump relaxed his tone when he said American companies could continue to do business with the telecommunications giant. While it is unknown how long this “permit” extends and if it will be applies to 5G technology, one thing is certain that Google and Huawei will continue to cooperate.

Under US sanction terms, Google decided to revoke Huawei’s Android license, which means that the company’s phones will not use the Play Store or Google’s services. While Trump did not mention specific companies like Google, Qualcomm and Intel, he cited the complex products and technologies created by American companies.

“What we did in the Silicon Valley is tremendous, and no one has been able to compete with it and we have agreed that our companies will continue to sell Huawei-s products,” Trump said.

While American sanctions had not yet come into effect due to 90-day permissions, it had started to affect Huawei’s upcoming products. Now Google is once again ready to license Huawei’s Android.

Microsoft warns 800 million Windows 10 users

Windows 10 problems are not over. The platform has been hit by numerous issues in recent weeks and Microsoft‘s partners have made the situation even worse.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

But another warning from Microsoft comes to Windows 10. Microsoft warned 800 million Windows 10 users that a serious and enduring problem was on a platform that is not known if we can consider it a problem.

Microsoft said it has silently shut down Windows registry backups in Windows 10 eight months ago. Creating registry backups is one of the most important protection processes for many businesses and users. If the Windows Backup System fails when windows has failed, the backup of the registry is all that remains.

From Windows 10 version 1803, the operating system does not save the backup of the registry to the RegBack folder.

Windows 10 1803 debuted in October and despite the fact that this “problem” was dealt with in the Feedback Center, only today the company is open to what has happened. Ironically because Microsoft two months ago said Windows 10 users would have more “control, quality, and transparency.”

According to the company it has been made to shrink the space occupied by Windows on the disk. And how much space does a backup of the registry? Between 50 to 100MB.

In recent months, Microsoft has intensified its efforts to relocate hundreds of millions of Windows 7 users to Windows 10. Such actions have to hinder Microsoft’s mission.

Why are our smartphones so good, but the batteries are so bad?

Why are our smartphones so good, but the batteries are so bad?

Even with the largest batteries and external battery packs, the most modern smartphones have a lot of work to do at the end of the day, while the best devices can barely spend two days without charging.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

Before, the phones had a longer battery life, which lasted a few days without the need for charging. Our smartphones are more powerful than, for example, the Nokia 3310, but why are the batteries not so powerful?

According to Venkat Srinivasan, an expert in battery technology, the explanation is very simple. Moore’s law has left battery technology behind, which means that our phones have improved, and require more power at a higher rate than the advancements made in the batteries.

This does not mean that there have been no improvements. Energy density has been increasing steadily over the last few years while internal components have declined. The rechargeable batteries we use today in phones are based on lithium cobalt, a technology that has been in use since the 1990s, and we have reached the maximum energy we can get from it.

There is hope for the future as researchers are looking for a new battery technology, such as solid batteries, that can open doors for more material to boost battery power. Yes, there is a cake, as at the time of using these batteries, the phones of the future will have advanced even more and you may need more power to hold the charge more than a day.

Samsung will launch the second foldable phone, before Huawei

Korea Herald quoted for The Investor the Samsung‘s plan to launch multiple folding devices, including a phone that unfolds outside.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″ tdc_css=””]

After criticizing for the form, it looks as though Samsung is not only supporting it, but the report suggests that this Samsung phone – the second folding device behind Galaxy Fold – will arrive before Huawei launches Mate X.

Galaxy Fold has not yet launched, although it is ready for the market, but Samsung promises it will not affect the launch of the Note 10.

Huawei Mate X has been delayed due to the late launch of the 5G, as it is a 5G phone, although earlier reports alleged that the delay is because Huawei does a lot of tests, trying to avoid problems like Samsung.

The launch date has not yet been revealed but is likely to be earlier than the date set for Huawei. It is reported that suppliers have already begun producing mass parts, and perhaps even the phone itself.

Recently, we have heard some announcements about Samsung’s future folding equipment, including one that opens as a shell and a patent of a curved display phone.
