5/6/2015 6:07:00 AM
It looks like a new twist to the Snapdragon 810's troubled story is about to form, leading to a happier outcome for Qualcomm's short-tempered SoC. Apparently, the Xiaomi Mi Note Pro, which the Chinese vendor announced in January and launched in China today, has been outfitted with a revised version of the SoC that exhibits much better performance and thermal management than what we've seen so far.
Being referred to as the Snapdragon 810 v2.1, the chip scores an impressive 63,424 points in the AnTuTu benchmark, which is well above what competing SD 810-powered devices, the HTC One M9 and ...
Google to let app devs to A/B test their apps, price discrimination inevitable?
5/6/2015 5:35:00 AM
If you've ever sat through a semester's worth of Economics 101, the topic of price discrimination (or differentiation) likely came up at some point. In practice, such a pricing strategy simply means that the provider charges a different fee, depending on a number of factors, including region and demographics. Something along those lines may soon be possible on Google's Play Store.

Sony Xperia C4 announced - not the flagship you're waiting for, but an explosive selfie-phone
5/6/2015 5:02:00 AM
Following the success of last year's Sony Xperia C3, the Japanese tech titan is happily unveiling its successor, the Xperia C4. Sharing its name with gamers' favorite plastic explosive, the smartphone is equipped with a front cam that's based around a 5MP sensor, a wide-angle (25mm wide) front camera lens, and a "soft" LED flash. Of course, this is a Sony phone, so not all the action is up front. The rear camera is a 13MP unit driven by Sony's own Exmor sensor, which Apple has been gobbling up for one of the next iPhones.

Leakster claims some HTC One M9 batches have Gorilla Glass 3, not 4
5/6/2015 4:31:00 AM
According to Corning, the maker of Gorilla Glass, the 4th iteration of its product offers twice the protection of its predecessor, Gorilla Glass 3.

Spotlight: Grim Fandango Remastered waltzes onto Android & iOS
5/6/2015 4:09:00 AM
When we learned of Grim Fandango: Remastered's arrival on Android and iOS, we couldn't help but think "they don't make games like this one anymore". Back in 1998, when Grim launched on PC, most gamers preferred to distract themselves with things other than the game's opaque puzzles (*cough* Half-Life *cough*) and film-noir-about-the-dead narrative. But time has its strange ways, for Grim Fandango's rhythm of telling witty stories via exploration and puzzles jibes pretty well with the state of mobile gaming circa 2015. Now a beloved classic, it arrives on Android & iOS completely preserved, ...

In some countries, mobile searches now outnumber ones conducted on PCs
5/6/2015 12:45:00 AM
With the number of mobile searches now outnumbering searches being conduced on PCs in some countries, Google is looking to improve the quality of mobile ads. After all, that is Google's bread and butter. And since mobile screens don't offer too much real estate for ads containing many words, Google's ads will be more "pictorial," giving the answer to consumer questions about a product visually.
One way to accomplish this is to have a carousel of captioned images near the top of mobile search results,. Google gets paid every time some one clicks through to the advertiser's website. Instead ...

5/5/2015 10:10:00 PM
Apple's new streaming music service was supposed to be unveiled with the launch of iOS 8.4. The New York Times previously said that Apple would be introducing the new service on June 8th. Not coincidentally, that is the first date of this year's WWDC developer conference in San Francisco.
But a publication more focused on the music industry, Billboard, says that Apple might not have enough deals in place with talent and labels by the expected June introduction. Without having a number of well known singers and songs to sell the public on when the music streaming service launches, Apple is ...
