<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Samsung finally took the wraps off
 its three new Galaxy A (2016) smartphones on Wednesday that are a 
definitive upgrade over its predecessors. The new smartphones namely Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016), Galaxy A5 (2016), and Galaxy A7 (2016)
 feature metal build and will also be available in dual-SIM options. The
 Galaxy A7 (2016) is the most powerful among the trio, followed by 
Galaxy A5 (2016), and then Galaxy A3 (2016).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As compared to their predecessors, the three smartphones boast of 
bigger displays, higher screen resolutions, upgraded processors, more 
RAM, higher resolution cameras, faster LTE connectivity support, and 
larger batteries. Here is a list of features that the Galaxy A (2016) 
handsets sport over and above the original Galaxy A3, Galaxy A5, and 
Galaxy A7.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>1. Bigger display</b> - Two of the three Galaxy A 
(2016) smartphones feature bigger displays than their predecessors. 
While probably aimed at offering a more immersive viewing experience and
 heightened productivity, on the negative side, increases the size of 
the smartphone. The Galaxy A3 (2016) and Galaxy A5 (2016)
 feature 5.2-inch and 4.7-inch display sizes respectively. For those 
unaware, the Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5 smartphones include 5-inch and 
4.5-inch display sizes respectively. The Galaxy A7 (2016) however, has 
the same 5.5-inch display like its predecessor.</span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>2. Higher screen resolution</b> - The second-generation Galaxy A 
smartphones not only feature bigger displays, but come with better 
screen resolution as well. While the original Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5 
sported qHD (540x960 pixels) and HD (720x1280 pixels) resolution 
displays respectively, their successors now sport HD (720x1280 pixels) 
and full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) resolution displays respectively. Once 
again, there's no change with Galaxy A7 (2016) as it features the same 
full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) resolution display panel.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>3. Faster
 processors</b> - While Samsung has not yet fully detailed what SoCs it is 
using on the three Galaxy A (2016) smartphones, it has bumped up the 
clock speeds and/ or cores in all cases. The Galaxy A3 (2016) packs a 
1.5GHz quad-core processor as compared to Galaxy A3's 1.2GHz quad-core 
processor, while the Galaxy A5 (2016) runs on a 1.6GHz octa-core SoC as 
compared to Galaxy A5's 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor. The

predecessor's 1.5GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 SoC..</span><br />

 given more RAM to two of the three smartphones, which should result in a
 smoother UI and faster multitasking experience.The Galaxy A3 (2016) now
 boasts of 1.5GB RAM, which is 500MB more than what is present in the 
Galaxy A3. The Galaxy A7 (2016) houses 3GB RAM, which is 1GB bump from 
Galaxy A7's 2GB RAM. The amount of memory on the Samsung Galaxy A5 and 
Galaxy A5 (2016) stays the same at 2GB RAM.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>5. Higher resolution 
cameras, with OIS</b> - Samsung has updated the optics of the new Galaxy 
A-series smartphones. The biggest difference is the inclusion of the 
optical image stabilisation (OIS) feature for two of the three 
smartphones, which should help deliver more stable shots and video 
capture. The Galaxy A5 (2016) and Galaxy A7 (2016) now come with the 
optical image stabilisation feature. Talking about an increase in 
resolution, the Galaxy A3 (2016)'s rear camera has been bumped up from

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">LG back in September launched its new Class mid-range smartphone in Korea priced at SKW 399,300 
(approximately Rs. 22,500). The smartphone was exclusive to Korean 
market.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The company has now revealed LG Zero, the global variant of the 
Class, which will be available globally. LG has announced that the LG 
Zero smartphone will be available in Taiwan starting this week followed 
by other key markets in Asia, Europe, and Latin America. It will be 
available in Gold and Silver colours. The company adds that the 
smartphone will continue to be marketed as the LG Class in Germany, Korea, Russia, and 
Singapore. Unfortunately, LG has announced that it will announce pricing
 and availability of the Zero at the time of local launch.</span>

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">One of 
the highlights of the LG Zero smartphone, similar to Class smartphone, 
is its metal body, and like other recent LG handsets, it features power 
and volume rocker buttons on the rear panel, just below the primary 
camera. The handset sports LG logo branding both on front and back 
panels. The Zero sports an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, which the 
company touts comes with the image sensor from the LG G4 flagship.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For
 specifications, the LG Zero smartphone featured identical 
specifications as the Class. It features a 5-inch HD (720x1280 pixels) 
IPS display. It offers a pixel density of 294ppi. The company notes that
 the Zero features an "Arc Glass" design at the edges giving it a 
slimmer profile.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">It is powered by a 1.2GHz quad-core processor. Considering that the Class was backed by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 
410 SoC, we can expect Zero smartphone to be powered by the same 
chipset. One of the biggest differences between the two handsets is in 
RAM - the Zero packs 1.5GB of RAM while Class came with 2GB of RAM. The 
handset packs 16GB of built-in storage while supporting expandable 
storage via microSD card (up to 2TB).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The company has confirmed 
that the LG Zero runs Android 5.1 Lollipop. There is a 13-megapixel rear
 camera with LED flash. The smartphone supports FM radio recording 
feature while also featuring a 1W speaker.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">It measures 
142x71.8x7.4mm and weighs 147 grams. For connectivity, the LG Zero 
supports 4G LTE, 3G, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, GPS, NFC, and 
Micro-USB. The smartphone packs a 2050mAh embedded battery.</span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Xiaomi on Monday announced that it will release Windows 10 Mobile software for flagship Mi 4
 Android smartphone in China on December 3 . The announcement comes nine
 months after Microsoft partnered with the Chinese technology 
conglomerate to beta test Windows 10 for phones.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Lin Bin, Co-Founder and President of Xiaomi shared the news on Chinese social networking website Weibo. The image <a href="http://weibo.com/1689618340/D6hyWudWQ?type=comment#_rnd1448957486064" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">shared by</a> Bin shows Windows 10 Mobile

     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> The announcement comes a week after a 
Microsoft Operating System Software Engineer who goes by the alias 
TheRenaissanceMan posted on Weibo that a public release of Windows 10 
for Mi 4 is coming on Thanksgiving Day.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In March, on the sidelines of Windows 10's release date announcement, Microsoft
 also said that it had partnered with Xiaomi to test Windows 10 for 
phones. At the time, the company said that it would be testing Windows 10 with select Xiaomi Mi 4 power users in China.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">"Through a new program with Xiaomi,
 one of the top smartphone distributors in the world, a select group of 
Xiaomi Mi 4 power users will be invited to help test Windows 10 and 
contribute to its future release later this year", the company had then 
noted in a blog post. "These power users will have the opportunity to 
download the Windows 10 Technical Preview - installing it and providing 
their feedback to Microsoft".</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As Microsoft diminishes its mobile manufacturing efforts, the 
aforementioned partnership was speculated as a way for the company to 
get more people to try out its mobile operating system. Instead of 
releasing more Windows Phone (or Windows 10 Mobile) handsets, the company could release build (ROM) of its operating system that can be flashed onto an Android
 handset. At this point, we don't know how successful this program has 
been for the two companies. But a public release of Windows 10 Mobile 
for Mi 4 handsets does seem to paint a positive picture, and, may even 
indicate that more ROMs may be released to other Xiaomi phones.</span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">J.K. Shin, Samsung's longtime head of mobile (and the boss who 
oversaw the company's rise and fall as the Android kingpin), is moving 
on. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Samsung's smartphone division hasn't had a particularly 
healthy last few years: while it owned the market with the Galaxy S3 and
 S4, the follow-up phones have failed to captivate the market, resulting
 in last-ditch attempts to persuade people that curved screens are the 
future, and an <a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/samsung-sees-seventh-straight-profit-decline-1436227146" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">overall loss for the company year-on-year</a>. </span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Shin is staying on at the company as co-CEO, but losing control of 
the day-to-day operations of the smartphone division. His successor is 
D.J. Koh, who has overseen Samsung R&D during projects like its 
in-house Tizen mobile OS and Samsung Pay. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">It's difficult to say 
what effect this will have on the products Samsung churns out in the 
immediate future. Koh was the R&D lead during a period when Samsung 
transitioned from cheap, plasticky design in the S3 to the much more 
premium feel of the S5 and S6. Then again, premium feel and a 
streamlined handset range is a market trend that certainly isn't 
exclusive to Samsung.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Ericsson's flagship Mobility Report is now out and some interesting data
 has been published by the firm. While global mobile subscriptions were 
found to be growing at 5%, the Indian mobile subscriber count has 
increased by 13 million this past quarter, the report said.</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /> The

 Rima Qureshi, Senior Vice President & Chief Strategy Officer,

enable new use cases related to the Internet of Things. For example, 
Ericsson has built a prototype testbed for applying 5G networking 
functions and data analytics to public transport, which can save 
resources, reduce congestion, and lower environmental impact. ICT

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Uncomfortable with your wristband fitness tracker? Now you can bury it 
somewhere in your closet as your smartphone would be your new fitness 
tracker, say researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology 
(MIT).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">A new system called BioPhone, developed by researchers at MIT, 
can take your heart rate, breathing and other physiological measurements
 while it sits in your bag or pocket - without even touching your body, 
MIT Technology Review reported.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-7726750987177406"
     data-ad-slot="7596682374"
     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The BioPhone derives biological 
signals from your phone's accelerometer and it can capture the small 
movements of your body that result from the beating of your heart and 
rising and falling of your chest, <a href="http://www.technologyreview.com/news/543306/track-your-heart-with-your-phone-even-if-your-phones-in-your-bag/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">researchers said</a>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Lead author of
 the study, Javier Hernandez, said it is meant to capture this data 
during moments when you are not moving much and the data could be used 
to help figure out when you are stressed out and then help you cope with
 it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For example, your smartphone might suggest you try some breathing exercises or ask a loved one to give you a call.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">To measure the utility of BioPhone, researchers asked participants to stand, sit and lie down with a smartphone in their pocket.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 data gathered from the smartphones were extremely similar and in many 
instances the same as FDA-approved heart and breathing-rate sensors.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">However,
 researchers still have to figure out how to measure heart and breathing
 rates reliably when the smartphone is in different spots like your back
 pants' pocket, which can change how the biological signals are picked 
up.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In other words, the farther you get from the heart, the harder it is to get a good reading.</span></div>

Snapchat now wants you to pay for its selfie lenses

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Snapchat has finally figured out how to monetise its service, and 
it's going to charge you to be rainbow sick again. Snapchat is now 
launching a store so you can buy the most popular customisations for 
your disappearing snaps.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Lenses were first introduced back in 
September and the new store will not replace the free lenses, but will 
supplement them. There are 30 lenses available for purchase every day 
(which you can then keep and use forever).</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">To activate lenses, 
simply switch to the front-facing camera on your phone when snapping a 
photo in Snapchat and do a long press on your face.</span><br />
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Return of the sick</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The store will feature both new and "old favourites". It's all about the rainbow sick.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As we reported back in September, it and other favourites have been removed
 - so presumably to get it back again you'll have to pay up. Pricing 
isn't clear just yet and we don't know if you pay for each use either.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The company says that lenses have proved so popular that 10m are used every day (out of 100m daily users). </span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-7726750987177406"

     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 store should provide Snapchat with some much needed revenue to justify 
its massive $16bn valuation - and the expectation is that lenses could 
also conceivably be sponsored by brands too.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">If you don't feel like pressing the Home button, you can call up 
Apple's digital assistant app with a "hey Siri" voice command in iOS 
9-as long as your iPhone is charging or you're using an iPhone 6s or 
iPhone 6s Plus. Those limitations are designed to prevent battery drain,
 but you can actually access the shortcut anytime, anywhere on any 
iPhone just by keeping Siri active.</span>

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">First, you need to activate the "hey Siri" voice shortcut via <b>General</b> and <b>Siri</b>
 in the Settings app. Second, you need to run Siri once and not say 
anything (or run a query of your choice). With Siri on the screen, the 
"hey Siri" voice command works until the display automatically locks, a 
time period you can set by tapping<b> General</b> then <b>Auto-Lock</b> in Settings.</span>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Obviously
 the main downside is your battery is going to drain pretty rapidly, but
 on those occasions when you need hands-free Siri access for 
something-in the car or when cooking, for example-it's a neat trick you 
can use to avoid having to physically tap your phone at all. With new 
iPhones supporting "hey Siri" whether or not they're on main power, it 
looks like we won't need this workaround for much longer.</span></div>

Lenovo Phab Plus Review, Here all you Need to know

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">  </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Yes, the new Lenovo Phab Plus is enormous and 
unweildy. No, it's not worth buying if you do not explicitly want a huge
 phone - or a tablet that can also make voice calls. Now that that's out
 of the way, we can look at it for what it really is rather than 
dismissing it as ridiculous: a hybrid device designed for people who 
spend a lot more time playing games and watching videos than talking on 
the phone.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-7726750987177406"

     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>

</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Lenovo stresses the screen and audio quality of the 
Phab Plus, which is a way of saying it's an entertainment-focused 
device. There really isn't anything else like it on the market. With a 
metal body and a price tag close to Rs. 20,000, Lenovo
 is trying to create a 
premium niche in the voice-calling tablet market. Let's see if the 
company has tapped a whole new product category, or whether the Phab 
Plus is 
just a novelty that will soon be forgotten.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Look and feel</b></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 very first thing to deal with when it comes to this phone is its size. 
With a 6.8-inch screen and very little space on the sides, it's not as 
big as most small tablets. As far as phones go though, this might well 
be the biggest we've ever tested. It looks like a stretched out iPhone 6
 Plus (Review | Pictures); taller and wider, but not perceptibly thicker. The comparison is 
especially valid because this is where the Phab Plus gets all its design
 inspiration from. Not only is it available in grey, silver and gold, 
but the curved sides, flat back, antenna lines and overall styling are 
also undeniably taken straight from Cupertino's current aesthetic.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Of
 course, being an Android device, the front is a bit different. The 
proportion of screen to surrounding plastic is way higher. The narrow 
strip of white above the screen houses the earpiece, camera and sensor 
window in a straight line, while the matching one below is blank thanks 
to the use of on-screen buttons. A status LED is hidden within the 
earpiece grille, and unfortunately isn't visible at all unless you're 
looking at the phone head-on.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">One original design touch is the 
grille on the upper rear that houses the loudspeaker as well as the 
primary camera and its dual-LED flash. There are also two rather ugly 
stickers lower down, with regulatory information and barcodes. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 power and volume buttons are on the right but the sheer size of this 
device means there's no way to get the placement right - they're almost 
always out of reach. There's a tray on the left which can hold one 
Micro-SIM and either a secondary Nano-SIM or a microSD card. As with 
many recent phones, you'll have to sacrifice storage expansion in order 
to use a second SIM, or vice versa. We are not in favour of this 
arrangement at all, especially if it isn't made clear in the product's 
spec sheet and promotional materials, as is often the case.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As far as grip and comfort 
go, you really have to treat this device like a smallish tablet. The 
Phab Plus weighs 229g which is a lot for a phone. Holding it up to speak
 is awkward and uncomfortable after barely a few minutes. We tried 
bending and twisting the phone, and while there was a little flex, we 
weren't afraid it would easily get damaged. </span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinvGZciABzUGL2hrnMIrlaHMc6gaO5BCSyb51h4QVmd0jd_q0iicEKroUuZNSaQn0eHQNLjDH0VINn4YFUOHDg8XHmlfpfYE6xvO6ddnb6vgwCpzF75HJaeTj_ACxXxEP8UHH11_EIJ6Q/s1600/index.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinvGZciABzUGL2hrnMIrlaHMc6gaO5BCSyb51h4QVmd0jd_q0iicEKroUuZNSaQn0eHQNLjDH0VINn4YFUOHDg8XHmlfpfYE6xvO6ddnb6vgwCpzF75HJaeTj_ACxXxEP8UHH11_EIJ6Q/s400/index.jpg" width="400" /></a><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Lenovo thinks a lot 
of people will be willing to use this as their primary mobile device, 
replacing an ordinary smartphone. We have our doubts about that, for the
 simple reason that it's really awkward to carry around. Half of it will
 stick out of a shirt pocket, and we were never quite comfortable with 
it in our pants or jeans pockets either. We were often worried about 
pickpockets when out and about, since it presents such an inviting 
target. It's really more suitable to being carried around in a bag.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Specifications</b></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 Lenovo Phab Plus has fairly mid-range specifications, and if that 
doesn't seem impressive for the price it's because you're paying for the
 huge screen and build quality. The processor is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 
615, which has eight CPU cores and runs at 1.5GHz. There's 2GB of RAM 
and 32GB of storage. MicroSD card support goes up to 64GB, though as 
already stated, this will be at the cost of the second SIM.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The 
6.8-inch screen has a resolution of 1080x1920 which is pretty good, but 
not as sharp as you might expect it to be. There's a 13-megapixel camera
 on the rear and a 5-megapixel one in front. The battery, which is not 
removable, has a capacity of 3,500mAh. Talk time is rated at 24 hours 
and standby time at 20 days. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">You get 4G access through both SIM 
slots. There's support for the modern Wi-Fi 802.11 ac standard, but only
 Bluetooth 4.0 for some reason. Lenovo advertises Dolby Atmos sound 
enhancement and a specially designed "1.0cc sound chamber".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Software</b></span></span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<script>

</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The

Phab Plus runs Android 5.0.2 and in many ways behaves like Android on 
tablets in the way that apps use the screen. There isn't any 
optimisation in the way the iPhone 6 Plus, for example, uses the 
additional space in landscape mode to display an extra column in the 
Messages and Settings apps.
 Lenovo has added shortcuts to the quick settings panel that trigger 
what it calls "single hand micro screen" mode, "wide touch", and "single
 hand keyboard" which don't seem to have any effect at first.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">After
 digging through the settings we found that the former toggles a setting
 labelled "screen shrink" which lets you draw a 'C' gesture anywhere, 
shrinking the display output to use only a corner of the screen. It 
moves when you tilt the phone, which is awkward, but you can also 
reposition it and choose between two levels of shrinkage. Further in the
 settings app, there's a section that says you can prevent apps from 
running in "small window mode" - note the third different name for this 
feature - but what this actually does is only reject recognition of the 
gesture, not prevent the apps from being shrunk. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As it turns out,
 "wide touch" is another name for "floating shortcut", which replicates 
the iOS Assistive Touch feature, a floating translucent button which is 
actually meant for people with limited ranges of motion but can be used 
to overcome the problems presented by the enormous screen. "Single hand 
keyboard" turned out to only affect the phone app's keypad, not the 
actual system keyboard in any app that needs text input. A little 
documentation about these features would really have helped, especially 
because of the confusing names Lenovo has given them. Not even the 
downloadable PDF user guide on the company's website was of any use - we
 had to discover all this through trial and error.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Lenovo has 
skinned Android with custom icons, a tabbed panel in the Settings app, 
and a few preinstalled apps which are of little value. There's one app 
which is sort of a video brochure for the device you've already bought, a
 Dolby Atmos app which lets you choose between equaliser presets and 
create two custom profiles, McAfee Mobile Security, and Lenovo's own 
SYNCit and SHAREit which let you back up data and exchange files with 
other people.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: 0.8em;"><b><span style="font-size: 1.25em;">Performance</span></b></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Using the Lenovo Phab Plus was 
occasionally a chore, but that's more to do with its size and bulk than 
its hardware capabilities. That said, we did encounter a little bit of 
stuttering on rare occasions. Voice calls sounded a little hollow on 
both ends - we're not too critical of this since calling is clearly not 
the device's primary purpose, but it's something potential buyers should
 be prepared to deal with.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Gaming was pretty smooth with no 
noticeable problems in Dead Trigger 2. The big screen also worked well 
for other tasks - you can comfortably browse desktop websites, watch 
movies, play with creative apps and even get work done. Typing was the 
most awkward part of the usage experience because of the enormous and 
widely spaced on-screen keyboard. On the other hand, people who have a 
tough time with small touchscreens might find themselves quite 
comfortable with the Phab Plus.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Videos played smoothly, but we 
were quite underwhelmed with the sound. The Phab Plus never really got 
loud enough for us, and sound was tinny and scratchy especially with 
music. The speaker's positioning on the rear didn't really work for 
movies and games, and while voices came through clearly enough, ambient 
sounds were quite lost. The Dolby Atmos effects could certainly be 
heard, but we wouldn't necessarily say the sound was improved.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 primary camera was decent, for the most part. Autofocus wasn't always 
on point and details suffered a bit, but photos generally looked great 
unless we zoomed in to 100 percent. Night shots were also pretty good, 
though the phone was of course slower to lock focus and shutter lag 
increased quite a bit as well. Videos are taken at 720p by default, and 
though this can be bumped up to 1080p, we weren't pleased with the 
quality at all. Everything was grainy and dull. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In terms of 
benchmarks, the Phab Plus scored 34,148 in AnTuTu and 18,197 overall in 
Quadrant. Graphics tests were underwhelming, with the device managing 
only 15fps in GFXbench and 5,413 points in 3DMark Ice Storm Extreme.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 battery lasted 6 hours, 34 minutes in our video loop test which would 
ordinarily be underwhelming, but is somewhat explained away by the huge 
screen. Day-to-day usage with a more realistic mix of gaming, Web 
browsing, calling, and lying idle yielded on average a day and a half of
 battery life.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Verdict</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b> </b><br />The Lenovo Phab Plus sits in a class 
of its own at the moment. 7-inch Android tablets with voice calling all 
seem to be clustered at a lower price point and offer far worse 
specifications for less money. Lenovo is taking a chance with what seems
 like a niche within a niche.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This device is awkward and oversized
 even by "phablet" standards. You'd really have to be on board with all 
its pros and cons if you're thinking it will replace your existing 
smartphone. It's much more likely to be a secondary device, but even so 
it's hard to imagine the primary target audience of young people picking
 it up as an indulgence at Rs. 18,000 which is the lowest market price 
we've seen so far.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The Phab Plus works well as an entertainment 
and Web surfing gadget, but not one that you carry around with you every
 day. The construction quality and specifications make it worth its 
price, but much better mainstream smartphones are available as well.</span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">BlackBerry Priv, the company's first Android-based slider smartphone, 
went on sale last week in limited markets. Now, a leak has tipped that the Canadian company 
may have already started working on its second Android phone.</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">BlackBerry's
 purported second Android smartphone, said to be codenamed "Vienna", has
 been leaked in images <a href="http://crackberry.com/blackberry-vienna" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">via</a> 
Crackberry. Notably, this is the first instance when images of the phone
 have made it to the Internet. Unfortunately, details about the handset 
are limited as of now. To be noted is that the BlackBerry Priv was 
codenamed "Venice" ahead of launch.</span></i>

</script><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The leaked images however show that the
 company may ditch the slider design for its second Android phone and 
will go with its iconic physical keyboard upfront design, previously 
seen on various BlackBerry phones. </span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The front of the handset is seen 
housing the display and the physical keyboard below it. The rear holds 
the camera with flash while the physical buttons for volume sit on the 
right panel and power on the left side, as per the leaked images.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">  </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Of
 course, as with all rumours and leaks, we advise readers to take the 
above information about the BlackBerry "Vienna" with a pinch of salt, as
 the company has yet to make any announcements about its new Android 
smartphone and the credibility of the sources cannot be independently 
verified.</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">BlackBerry last week soon after confirming that it would
 release monthly Android security patches to Priv users, also gave a 
release time-frame for its rollout of the Android 6.0 Marshmallow 
update. BlackBerry is reportedly targeting a rollout "sometime in the new year".</span></i>

<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">To recall, the BlackBerry
 Priv Android slider smartphone went up for sale earlier this month at $699 (roughly Rs. 45,500) in 
the US. It features a 5.4-inch QHD (1440x2560 pixels) Amoled display and
 sports a pixel density of 540ppi. Under the hood, it is powered by a 
Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 hexa-core processor clubbed with 3GB of RAM, and
 supports up to 32GB of expandable storage. An 18-megapixel rear camera 
is at the rear while a 2-megapixel front-camera is also on board. A 
massive 3410mAh battery backs the device.</span></i></div>

<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> You can now try Firefox OS on your Android handset without flashing a ROM on your device. Mozilla has <a href="https://hacks.mozilla.org/2015/11/firefox-os-2-5-developer-preview-an-experimental-android-app/" target="_blank">released a developer preview</a> of its mobile operating system that can be installed on Android devices as an app.</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Firefox OS 2.5 Developer Preview acts as an Android
 launcher that can replace one's current home screen to replicate 
Firefox OS' interface and bring additional features. Users also get 
access to Firefox's Marketplace from where they can download apps and 
add-ons.</span></i>
<br />

</script><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Users also get access to the Firefox
 Browser, which comes loaded with many privacy-centric features 
including the ability to enable tracking protection from websites and 
advertisers. </span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The browser also lets you pin shortcuts to the websites you
 like on the home screen - turning them into Web apps. </span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In our test, we observed that the app was slightly slow - which is 
understandable as the app is in its preview phase. The app also seems to
 have been designed for an entry-level handset that presumably comes 
with a low-resolution screen. On our test Android device with FHD 
display, the icons and the interface in general appeared to be blown up.
 Even after making some adjustment in the settings, things still looked 
bloated. </span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For those unware, Firefox OS is an open-source, Linux-based mobile 
operating system meant for smartphones. The lightweight operating system
 uses open Web standards such as HTML5
 and open Web APIs. It was first unveiled in February 2012, since then a
 handful OEMs have launched Firefox OS-powered handsets, with India's Intex and Spice being some of the recent partners.</span></i>

<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Over the years, the traction of Mozilla's mobile operating system has
 remained negligible. A ROM for Firefox OS has been available for quite 
some time, but it required users to manually flash their device and 
replace the existing Android software. The move to make it available as 
an app could give Firefox OS more exposure.</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The installation file weighs around 90MB and is available for download from <a href="https://hacks.mozilla.org/2015/11/firefox-os-2-5-developer-preview-an-experimental-android-app/" target="_blank">the company's website</a> (and not the Play Store).</span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Further cementing its presence in the mid-range segment, Huawei has announced the launch of the G7 Plus in China. The handset is very similar to the Huawei G8 which the Chinese telecommunications launched at IFA 2015 in Berlin in September.<br /><br />The metal-clad smartphone features a design similar to the iPhone, with antenna bands and speaker grilles looking strikingly similar. The Huawei G7 Plus is the logical successor to the last year's Huawei G7.
