Lenovo A7600-M poses for the camera
4/3/2015 1:48:00 PM

Back in February, we told you that the Lenovo A7600-M had been certified in China by TENAA, the country's equivalent of the FCC. Today, a couple of snapshots featuring the handset have been leaked. Design-wise, the phone appears to be constructed of plastic with metal wrapped around the middle of the unit.

The Lenovo A7600-M offers a 5.5-inch screen with a resolution of 720 x 1280. An octa-core MediaTek MT6752 is under the hood with 2GB of RAM and 8GB of native storage inside. In the likely event more memory is required, there is a microSD slot on board. Back and front-facing cameras weigh ...

 

New pictures of the HTC One M9+ provide the best look yet of the premium handset
4/3/2015 11:13:00 AM

The sharpest and clearest images yet of the HTC One M9+ have been revealed in a tweet from @upleaks, and they show the premium handset in greater detail than we've seen before. The button on the bottom front of the device splits the lower BoomSound speaker in half. It also looks more like a dedicated fingerprint scanner that one would swipe rather than a home button to be pressed.

The back of the device resembles the HTC One (M8) more than the new HTC One (M9) with a Duo camera set up. The 5.2-inch screen will carry a 1440 x 2560 resolution and we should see an octa-core MediaTek MT6795 ...

 

Microsoft's Office Lens app turns your iPhone or Android handset into a powerful pocket scanner
4/3/2015 10:21:00 AM

Microsoft this week introduced Office Lens for iPhone and Android, an app that can turn your handset into a portable scanner. This is the latest in an ever-growing list of apps that Microsoft is making for both iOS, and Android.

Available for Windows Phone devices since last year, Office Lens lets you scan documents, receipts, business cards, whiteboards, menus, and so on. The app recognizes the corners of a document, thus being able to magically enhance, crop, and clean up images. Thanks to OCR (optical character recognition), Office Lens identifies printed text, allowing you to search ...

 

10 things in Android that will annoy iOS users
4/3/2015 9:49:00 AM


You've been an Apple loyalist during your entire life, but the inevitable happens and an unstoppable compelling force has made you consider doing the unthinkable - making the switch to Android. 

Much to Tim Cook and Jony Ive's dismay, Apple is probably losing a number of users daily (though the vice versa option is also true). Chances are that the majority of these renegades to the cause of Steve Jobs will opt for an Android device, though Microsoft's Windows and the rest of the players on the market are still viable alternatives.
iOS users, Android is ...

 

10 things in iOS that will annoy Android users
4/3/2015 9:49:00 AM


Every operating system out there has its own kinks and distinctive features – no matter if its hardware platform is PC, ultrabook, tablet, or smartphone, there is no unified way to go about things, as manufacturers try to create a user experience in their own way, based on how they envision the platform should work. So, naturally, when a customer has become used to one system, jumping on to another will result in a period of adjustment, which will be filled with minor and not-so-minor annoyances – some of which don't go away and may prompt the user to go back to their ...

iFixit gets an HTC One M9 to tear down. Low repairability score and questionable QC arise
4/3/2015 9:23:00 AM

The guys over at iFixit got their hands on HTC's brand-new (though, not in looks) flagship – the One M9. From there on, they did what they do best – took the device apart and meticulously recorded every little bit of the process for the do-it-yourself guys all over the world. So, what did the tear-down reveal?

Well, upon first sight of the unit, iFixit reports a scratch already being present on the display, out of the box (ouch). The actual packaging also has a small blemish, which is not a huge problem, but doesn't point towards stellar quality assurance when we are talking about a flagship ...

Number crunching - how to add a number row to the stock Google keyboard
4/3/2015 8:24:00 AM

With the default Google Keyboard, things are peachy until it comes to punching in a number. You are pressed to either hold down on the upper row of keys, or press a button to switch between the numbers & symbols keyboard layout. Both actions are quite inconvenient if you often enter numbers in your messages. Thankfully, there is a way to get a number row on top of all your Android keyboard buttons. The procedure doesn't involve any tricks, hacks and mods, but you may find it rather convoluted. 


In this tutorial, we'll walk you through enabling a number row in the stock ...
