4/7/2015 5:04:56 AM

LG is showing off the upcoming version of its Android interface, which will power the upcoming LG G4 (coming at the end of the month). LG UX 4.0 builds on the three versions that came before it, starting with the LG Optimus G in 2012. A promo video released yesterday spent a minute recounting the key features of the first there versions - Quick Memo and QSlide of the original, then the KnockON and KnockCode of the second version and the Gesture and Touch shooting options of the third one. LG UX 4.0 for the upcoming LG G4 Finally, LG UX 4.0 adds Camera Manual Mode and Smart Notice. The camera of the LG G4 will offer three modes - Simple, Basic and Manual - to adjust to your skill level. Simple is just a point-and-shoot, while Manual Mode will give you full control over the camera settings. Smart Notice is not a new feature despite what the press release claims, it was on the LG G3. It imitates Google Now, it learns your daily routine and keeps track of your travel plans to provide you with relevant info on time. Additional features include an improved calendar, which lets you set up reminders for events you're invited to on social networking with a simple drag and drop. The new gallery will group photos by event, based on location. Okay, that's hardly new, but the LG G4 will compose unique ringtones for your contacts. Benchmarks have revealed a lot about the G4's hardware - a 5.5" QHD screen, Snapdragon 808 chipset with 3GB RAM, plus a 16MP/2160p main camera and 8MP/2160p selfie...

 

Huawei teases the P8 in a promo video
4/7/2015 4:21:46 AM

A mysterious man, dressed in a black hooded cape, walks around the world gathering light in a new promotional video released by Huawei. The official launch of the company's next flagship, the Huawei P8, is set to take place on April 15 and Huawei is creating the all-important hype before the event. What we could try to read into the video, titled "Capture the wonder of light", is that the P8 may come with improved available-light shooting capabilities. So far it has been rumored that the P8 will sport a 13MP main camera, but no info has surfaced on the lens aperture. It will be interesting to see what the company's engineers have managed to fit in the slim 6.6mm body. Other than that, the Huawei P8 is said to pack a 5.2-inch 1080p display, 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. In latest news, insider info claimed that a yet-unannounced Kirin 935 chipset will find its place within the P8, but that remains to be seen. Huawei has been pretty subtle in its marketing campaign for the P8, kicking off with an image emphasizing on battery life. The battery inside is a 2,600mAh unit, so will need to see how that plays out. Another set of images followed, highlighting the P8's stronger screen, perhaps indicating the use of Corning's latest Gorilla Glass 4. The camera took center stage in the next poster, while an ambiguous calculator with currency symbols suggested an attractive price...

Sony Xperia Z4 photo sample surfaces
4/7/2015 3:25:50 AM

Sony has been keeping fans on their toes for months, waiting for the Sony Xperia Z4 announcement. During this time, rumors and speculations have been plentiful. We already have some idea of the device's specs, as well as renders and even, most recently, a few alleged live photos. Today, another piece of the puzzle saw the light of day - a photo sample that is most likely from the Xperia Z4. The original shot has EXIF data that squarely points in the direction of the 20.7MP shooter of the device. Even the model number "Sony E6553" is there, so everything looks quite believable. The full-size sample is available at the source link. Sony Xperia Z4 camera sample The shot itself (taken at ISO 50) looks good enough with a decent level of detail. Conditions also appear quite favorable, as the picturesque shot was taken in broad daylight in a UK national park that is if the enclosed GPS coordinates are accurate. Upon further inspection, however, it seems the Z4 shares much of the camera hardware of the Xperia Z3 and shows the same image processing. Also, there's noticable corner softness. While a single daylight sample is definitely not enough to go by in terms of camera quality, it appears the Xperia Z4 won't be a huge upgrade over the Z3. Equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chipset with octa-core CPU, 3GB of RAM and what appear to be the same 5.2-inch display and camera hardware as its predecessor, it looks like Z4 hopefuls will be faced with the same situation HTC are having now. There is still hope, however, that the legendary Japanese manufacturer has a trick or two in store, to make the Z4 desirable, because, otherwise, the future isn't looking too bright for the struggling mobile division.
