First report on the Galaxy Note 8 suggests Samsung is going big Posted: 06 Mar 2017 12:42 PM PST "Galaxy Note" has become a dirty phrase associated with fire and disappointment in the last few months, so it's easy to forget that the Note series used to be Samsung's flagship. Before it started spontaneously combusting, reviews fawned over the Note 7's non-flammable design and features like the iris sensor. So obviously, Samsung is going to want to get its reputation back with the next Note device, set to land later this year. With a launch not expected until October, we don't have much by the way of leaks yet, but what we do have looks good.
A report from SamMobile claims that the in-house codename for the Galaxy Note 8 is "Great." That's a good sign for things to come, unless Samsung is trying some kind of Jedi mind trick to confuse the world's tech bloggers. The Galaxy Note 8 is going to have a tough time this year, as it will likely be debuting right after the iPhone 8. Apple is expected to go all-in this year with a new iPhone 8 model as well as incremental upgrades to the existing lineup with the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus. The iPhone 8 is likely to feature a 5.8-inch OLED display with minimal bezel, a fingerprint sensor built into the screen, and the possibility of an Apple Pencil-like stylus. That makes the iPhone 8 a direct competitor to what has previously been easy Note sales, thanks to the big screen that the Note devices are famous for. Even worse for the Note 8, SamMobile is also reporting that we might see a refurbished Note 7 launched in South Korea. That's good news for the environment, as it means the Note 7 might end up as more than just landfill, but it's not exactly going to do wonders for Note 8 sales. |

Fan-made iPhone 8 imagines how iOS 11’s new ‘Function Bar’ might work Posted: 06 Mar 2017 11:51 AM PST Apple's iPhone 8 release date might still be more than six months away, but you wouldn't know it to look at all the chatter around the web right now. New reports claiming to reveal details about Apple's upcoming iPhone 8 emerge each and every day, and they continue to paint an increasingly clear picture of Apple's next-generation flagship iPhone. Increasingly clear, yes, but there's still a very long way to go before we know exactly what to expect from Apple's tenth-anniversary iPhone. In the meantime, people continue to image what might be in store from Apple based on the rumblings we've heard thus far. Based on what we've learned from insiders with impressive track records like KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 8 will feature an exciting new design that pack a large 5.8-inch OLED display into a compact housing that is roughly the same size as Apple's smaller iPhone 7. How will Apple fit its biggest ever smartphone screen into a phone the size of the current 4.7-inch iPhone? According to reports, the phone will sport an exciting new design that removes the home button and does away with much of the empty space surrounding the screen on current iPhone models. As a result, the phone will feature a face that is nearly all display. The larger screen and embedded Touch ID fingerprint scanner are exciting for a number of reasons, but one is the new function area that will supposedly occupy the bottom of the display much of the time. Like the Touch Bar on Apple's latest MacBook Pro models, this area will supposedly change dynamically based on which apps are being used at the time, offering shortcuts and other functions that can be customized by developers. We still have no idea if these reports are accurate, and we don't know what features iOS 11 will offer in the "Function Bar" supposedly headed to the iPhone 8. One Apple fan on the forums at MacRumors decided to create renders that imagine what we might see at the bottom of Apple's new OLED displays, and the results are pretty awesome. Forum user deuxani posted a series of images recently (via MacRumors)that show this new function area in action on the iPhone's home screen, lock screen, and in a few apps. On the lock screen, a fingerprint graphic would indicate that the user can unlock the phone with a Touch ID scan. Meanwhile on the home screen, the function area might only display a home button. Inside apps is where things get interesting, though. In these fan-made mockups, the Instagram app offers Function Bar shortcuts to post a new photo and to the app's private messenger inbox. Meanwhile in the Twitter app, a shortcut to post a new tweet might be available. And when the user visits someone's profile page, there might be a shortcut to follow that user. Again, these are fan-made concept images and we have no idea how closely they represent reality, if at all. Given how adamantly Apple is pushing the Touch Bar on the MacBook Pro, however, bringing similar functionality to iOS devices may indeed be high on the company's list of priorities. |

Bizarre Tesla Model S fire at Supercharger station prompts ‘full investigation’ Posted: 06 Mar 2017 11:24 AM PST Tesla is currently investigating what may have caused a Model S P85 to catch fire while at one of the company's Supercharger stations in Shanghai, China. The incident occurred late last week, and curiously enough, initial reports indicate that the car wasn't actively charging at the time the fire began to spread.
The fire was ultimately put out and thankfully no one was harmed during the incident. Addressing the matter in a statement provided to Electrek recently, Tesla said that it plans to conduct a full investigation into the matter. "No one was harmed in this incident," a Tesla spokesperson said. "We're undergoing a full investigation and we'll share our findings as soon as possible." Tesla, to its credit, has a history of being extremely transparent when it comes to providing full details about serious incidents involving its growing fleet of cars. A few photos of the charred out Tesla Model S P85 can be viewed below, courtesy of Reddit user JayinShanghai. While we certainly don't want to draw any sweeping conclusions about the incident until Tesla figures out exactly what went wrong, it's worth noting this isn't the first time we've seen a story involving a Tesla seemingly catching fire for no reason. This past August, for example, a driver taking a Model S 90D for a test drive heard a loud noise before noticing a message on the dashboard which read, "Problems with charging." Shortly thereafter, the driver pulled over whereupon the car reportedly burst into flames just one minute later. All of the passengers managed to escape unscathed and firefighters quickly arrived on the scene and put the fire out. A sensational photo of the burning Tesla can be seen below. |

Another painful reminder of Android’s most infuriating problem Posted: 06 Mar 2017 08:42 AM PST I'm a big fan of what Google has done with the Android platform. The company saw a huge shift coming in the mobile space, and its strategy was ingenious. By building a wonderfully capable and modern mobile platform and then handing it out to hardware vendors for free, Google created a scenario where its apps and services are at the center of the user experience on hundreds of millions of devices — in fact, that figure is quickly approaching 2 billion. Of course, there are upsides and downsides to every software platform, and Android is no different in this regard. And there's one downside in particular that continues to rear its ugly head time and time again. Google's latest version of Android is called Android 7 Nougat, and it's packed full of great new features. My personal favorites include the brilliant new software update mechanism, and Google's new "Instant Apps" feature that lets users start trying an app instantly without having to purchase or even download anything from the Google Play store. You can read about those new features and more in our previous coverage. Android 7.0 Nougat was first released on August 22nd, 2016, and the latest version, Android 7.1.2 Nougat, was released in late February. Google's new OS is now six months old, and it's well on its way to becoming the world's most popular version of Android... at some point in late 2018. That's right, it'll be two years before the majority of Android phones gain access to some version of Android 7, and by then Android 9 will have been released. According to Google's own data, the most common version of Android right now is Android Lollipop, which was first released two years ago back in 2014. Meanwhile, the six-month-old Android Nougat is currently installed on a whopping 1.2% of active Android devices. Ugh. This story is as painful to read over and over again as it is to write over and over again, but that makes it no less important. Why are we bringing it up now? Because a tweet from an official Samsung account last week serves as the latest painful reminder of how aggravating this problem truly is. https://twitter.com/SamsungUK/status/836204740870537217 Samsung's Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge were released just 22 months ago, and to this day they remain two of Samsung's most popular smartphones ever. Millions and millions of people purchased them since they were the first Samsung phones to feature a design and build quality that matched the killer performance and beautiful displays that Samsung has always been known for. Plenty of those phones are still in use since most people do not upgrade their smartphones every year, and yet all those flagship phones that were purchased for $650+ still don't have access to Google's six-month-old Android update. Now, all we can do is hope that Samsung manages to release Android N for the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge before Android O is released in the coming months. |
