Apple schools Xiaomi in art of trash talk

图片
The Xiaomi M4 wants to take the #1 spot from iPhone. Photo: Xiaomi Apple and Xiaomi executives got into a little trash talk fight at the World Internet Conference this week in China. Xiaomi’s CEO Lei Jun  described his company as a “small miracle ” that’s ready to dominate the smartphone world. But Apple’s general counsel, Bruce Sewell, who was also at the conference, wasn’t impressed with all of Xiaomi’s boasting. Xiaomi’s sudden rise to being the world’s third largest smartphone maker has been nothing short of miraculous. Executives at the Apple copy-cat are bullish on the company’s future and hope to become the top smartphone maker in 5 to 10 years, but Sewell thinks that’s much easier said than done. “It is easy to say, it is more difficult to do,” Bruce Sewell, Apple’s general counsel and senior vice president of legal and government affairs, told the conference when asked about Lei’s bold claims which would require ...

Now news is that Micromax an Indian smar...

Hannespree Touch Monitor and CX919 ii Device

Hannespree Touch Monitor and CX919 ii Device Hi all, I purchased the hannespree ht231dpbU multi-touch monitor and cx 919 II device in hopes of having a large android touch monitor for rom emulation and general web browsing. I was finally able to root the device by checking 'connect to PC' in settings and using a rooting tool instead of manually installing the adb drivers in hopes of getting to touch screen to work through adding the correct IDC file (from this thread i http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?1802-Touchscreen ) . However, the touch support is still now working as expected. The device shows feedback only when i touch exactly all 10 of my fingers on the screen, which is not the expected touch behavior. I read a few posts about modifying the kernel, but there was not enough details for a non-unix expert like myself to follow. Does anyone have a similar setup and could provide a more step by step guide to get the touchscreen to work as expected, or perhaps a rom...

iFixit teardown gives us a better look at the Nexus 6

图片
When you first purchase a device, it’s easy to neglect it’s insides. As long as it works and stays that way, who cares, right? Some people need more information than that, and iFixit is here to help with Google’s new  Nexus 6 . The Nexus 6 is Google’s most recent giant-sized flagship, which has received some quite flack due to it’s size and price. Let’s take a look inside and see if there’s anything particularly out of the ordinary. The Nexus 6 totes a 2.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 CPU, a 3220mAh non-removable battery, a 13MP rear-facing camera (OIS included), and a 2MP front-facing camera. Oh, and a  huge  5.95-inch Quad HD display. We also have either 32GB or 64GB storage options, with no microSD expansion (as is typical of Nexus devices). As for most non-removable back plates, the Nexus 6’s is no different. The back plate is too sturdy to take off with your fingernail, so if need be, you may need to resort to a pick or a thin piece of plastic. Ripping off the backplat...

Review: Android TV Boxes from Keedox with Kodi.tv (Xbmc)

图片
Review: Android TV Boxes from Keedox with Kodi.tv (Xbmc) This year I recently received two newer Android TV Boxes (4kSmartBox and TV quad-core MXIII)( www.keedox.com ) that support 4k video (UHD), H.265 ,recent versions of Kodi.tv (still branded as XBMC 13.2,), and supporting NetFlix, youtube and other Android Apps. Both boxes are feature packed and for the cost really bring a modern smartTV experience to any TV in the house. I will refer to Kodi.TV/XBMC interchangeably in this review. Because the boxes have very similar functionality, but slightly different hardware specs, this review will apply to both boxes, differences in their operation when relevant will be pointed out. Both boxes run a recent flavor of the Android O/S version 4.22, that means that many applications are available from the Google Play store and can be installed on these boxes. Both have built in WIFI , multiple USB ports and an SD (or microSD) card slot. so you just plug it into your TV via HDMI (or analog ca...

Oppo has launched two new device about a month ago, Oppo N3 and Oppo R5

图片
Oppo has launched two new device about a month ago,  Oppo N3  and Oppo R5. The N3 is Oppo’s newest flagship handset and it has some specific features, as its predecessor, Oppo N1, had. The most distinctive feature of this handset is most definitely the auto-rotating electric camera on the top of this handset. We’re talking about a 16-megapixel shooter which is rather bulky, but it makes it possible to shoot amazing selfies and you can rotate that thing any way you see fit in order to get the best angles when taking a picture. Aside from that camera, VOOC rapid charging is also something worth mentioning. This technology lets you charge the Oppo N3’s 3000mAh battery from 0 to 75% in just 30 minutes, which is commendable at the very least. Anyhow, this handset will go on sale tomorrow and people in China have been pre-ordering it like crazy since it became available for pre-order on November 11th. Oppo N3 is available for pre-order through Oppo’s official Chinese webpage or...
