Check out this video of the Asus VivoWatch in action
4/13/2015 7:39:00 PM
Earlier this morning, we showed you some pictures of the Asus VivoWatch. As you can tell by the name, this is a new smartwatch offered by the manufacturer. It is a completely different wearable device than the Android Wear powered Asus ZenWatch that was released in September 2014. To extend battery life, Asus is replacing Android Wear with another OS and will use a new simplified MediaTek chip. The end-result is that the new watch will provide users with up to ten days of battery life.
The Asus VivoWatch was just on display at Milan Design Week where a video was shot showing the device in ...
Windows 10-ready Blu Win HD LTE now available from Microsoft
4/13/2015 5:28:00 PM
If you're in search of a new Windows Phone handset that features LTE connectivity and doesn't cost too much, you may want to check out the Blu Win HD LTE, which, starting today, is available to buy in the US via Microsoft Store.

Other than that, the Win HD LTE offers a 5-inch display with 720 x 1280 pixels, ...

4/13/2015 5:14:00 PM
The Sony Xperia Z4 has yet to be introduced, and already there is speculation brewing about the Sony Xperia Z5, Sony Xperia Z5 Compact and Sony Xperia Z5 Ultra. Better run to the spice rack and grab that tin of Morton's because you need to take this story with a grain of salt, maybe more. According to this report, which was published on Monday, the Sony Xperia Z4 is going to launch in the middle of this year. So far, so good.
But the story here is that the manufacturer is returning to its old ways and will be back with its next flagship model during the fourth quarter of this year. The ...

That makes the following look at cases for the Huawei P8 and P8 Lite interesting since they give away details on what to expect on Wednesday when the pair should see the light of day.

4/13/2015 2:18:00 PM
Samsung today posted a video that presents the evolution of its Galaxy S flagship smartphones, from the original Galaxy S to this year's Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge (both of which went on sale last week).

With its 4-inch WVGA (480 x 800) display and its single-core 1 GHz processor, the Galaxy S is obviously a low-end device by today's standards. Next year, in 2011, the Galaxy S II introduced a dual-core 1.2 GHz processor and a larger, 4.3-inch display, though the pixel resolution remained ...
