Samsung To Present Its Foldable Smartphone By The End of The Year

According to the CEO of Samsung’s mobile division, DJ Koh, the South Korean tech giant plans on presenting its foldable smartphone by the end of this year, confirming the many rumors saying this type of next-gen handset device is under development.

DJ Koh discussed the upcoming foldable phone to CNBC and at IFA 2018 Berlin

In an interview for CNBC, DJ Koh stated “it’s time to deliver” the first Samsung foldable smartphone after a survey conducted by the South Korean giant company revealed that there is indeed a significant market for this type of devices. Samsung’s mobile division CEO did not offer details on how the upcoming foldable device would function but gave some details on its design.

“You can use most of the uses on foldable status. But when you need to browse or see something, then you may need to unfold it. But even unfolded, what kind of benefit does that give compared to the tablet? If the unfolded experience is the same as the tablet, why would they [consumers] buy it?” asked DJ Koh at the IFA 2018 in Berlin.

“So every device, every feature, every innovation should have a meaningful message to our end customer. So when the end customer uses it [the Samsung foldable smartphone], they think ‘wow, this is the reason Samsung made it,'” Koh added.

Samsung foldable smartphone to be revealed this year

The new Samsung foldable smartphone would be similar to a flip phone, a very trendy phone design more than a decade ago. But what’s new in this one is that Samsung is designing a screen that bends that would not need hinges and connectors to connect the two parts of the phone as in the flip phones.

According to DJ Koh, the CEO of the Samsung’s mobile division, the first Samsung foldable smartphone would be revealed this year, in November, at the Samsung Developer Conference in San Francisco.

iPad Pro 2018 Revealed In New Renders

The most recent computer renders based on the CAD files leaked earlier could show us the first authentic images of the upcoming 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2018. According to the renders, the new iPad would present almost edge-to-edge screen and iPhone-like antennas lines. Also, its chassis reminds of iPhone 4 style, to some extent.

The new iPad Pro 2018 renders, leaked on Twitter by Steve Hemmerstoffer from OnLeaks, present a redesigned iPad Apple fans expecting to see it on the market this fall. But we should take this with a grain of salt as no one – not even Steve Hemmerstoffer – could say the leaked CAD schematics are 100% genuine.

iPad Pro 2018 is different from the current Apple’s aesthetics lines

After OnLeaks leaked the CAD schematics of the new 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2018, Steve Hemmerstoffer from OnLeaks collaborated with the MySmartPrice tech blog to create the first computer renders of the upcoming iPad.

According to the new renders, iPad Pro 2018 ditched the rounded finishes of the chassis and adopted an angular case design. We witnessed a very similar design on iPhone 4 back in 2013.

We can see two rows of speakers flanking the bottom side of the chassis and unchanged buttons position when compared to the already existing iPad models. On the other hand, the Home button is gone, and the presence of the Apple headphones jack is confirmed bringing the upcoming iPad Pro 2018 in line with iPhone handsets.

12.9-inch iPad Pro 2018 would launch this fall with FaceID

Besides what the new renders give us regarding the design, some code lines from iOS 12 beta versions revealed the possibility that the upcoming 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2018 model would boast FaceID.

Apple will hold a special event at its Apple Park HQ on September 12th when the fans expect the company to announce the new iPhone 2018 models. Some of them hope Apple will also present the new generation of iPads with iPad Pro 2018 leading the pack.

Zedge: How Safe Is the Most Popular App for Ringtones and Wallpapers?

If you’re here, you’re probably asking yourself if Zedge is safe and legal. According to some reports, Zedge is the best app for free wallpapers and ringtones from the web. And there were no malware cases known for this site.

If you Google it, you’ll see that many people ask if it’s safe. Let’s take a look into this matter.

The thing is that the website is safe. You might have some problems if you download the app from strange, unknown sites. The Zedge app is only safe if you get it from the Google Play or from the iStore. Google Play always checks its apps for viruses, but there are some that can get infected. To avoid that, you need to make sure you get the app from Zedge themselves. There are many clones on Google Play, so make sure you choose the original app.

You should only give the necessary permissions

You should never give to any app the admin permission. If you do, it will be harder for you to uninstall it and it may even harm your phone.

Many people give permission without actually checking what access they’re granting. You need always to check this thing. This is the first opportunity to see whether the app is safe or not. Why would any app, actually, need to access your text messages? Think about it.

Who uploads on the app?

The Zedge app allows the users to upload content. You’re probably asking yourself what’s happening if the content comes infected from a user. You don’t have to worry about that. Zedge comes with some security systems that check every upload on the app. Each wallpaper or ringtone is free of any kind of malware.

Android Q Name Details – Release Date and Arrivals

It was the 6th of August when Google announced the release of Android 9 Pie. In spite of all of these, only a few gadgets will get the OS by the end of the year. Truth be told, there are many users who are still waiting for Android Oreo to come to their devices.

The next version of the OS will probably be called Android Q, the 10th version of it.

When’s the release date?

There was only one time they announced a new version of Android earlier than the 6th of August, and that was in 2012. We don’t think this is the case for Android Q. We expect to see that the Android Q will make its appearance somewhere in March, while the first public beta will come in May.

What kind of desert to we get for Android Q?

We know that Android 9 P is called Pie, so what do we know about the Android Q? Because of the letter Q, there are not many foods to choose from. Quinoa Pudding? Quesadilla? We only have to wait until they announce it for sure.

Will I get Android Q?

We’re not sure yet. As an unwritten rule, midranges and premium phones get about two major OS updates. But that’s not necessarily the case here. Let’s take a look at OnePlus, which promised to do a third major OS upgrade for OnePlus 3 and OnePlus 3T. They first came out with Marshmallow, and now they have Oreo.

If you want to get Android Q, you’ll need to buy one of those $700+ mobile phones which have the pre-installed Android Oreo. But Treble could make it work for more midrange (like those smartphones from Nokia) with a pre-installed Oreo OS.
