Technology found in Google Pixel and Pixel XL suggests that smart flip cases are coming for the pair

Considering that HTC manufacturers the Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL, it shouldn’t be a surprise to discover that both phones have a Reed Switch inside. This is an electrical switch activated by a magnetic force. Made up off a pair of contacts sealed in a glass tube, they act as an on/off switch when exposed to a magnetic field. HTC uses this technology to allow its phones to turn on when one of its HTC Dot View smart flip cases is opened. This works because the cases themselves have magnets embedded in them.

Thus far, there are no third party Pixel cases designed to take … – Source

'Aussies for Hillary' warn of dangers of an 'orange-haired menace'

Want to hear the most Australian sound in the worst? Check out the accents on these two “sheilas.”

In a skit simply titled “Aussies for Hillary,” two comedians lay down a few “honest truths” and apologise for a few Australian indiscretions, like Rupert Murdoch and Crocodile Dundee 2.

Lisa Davey and Ali Kennedy Scott wrote and produced and star in the Hillary-loving skit — a beautiful symbiosis of satire, pop culture references and a plea to common sense.

But above all, the …

Shortages of Apple iPhone 7 Plus and Google Pixel XL to negatively impact smartphone sales in Q4

Shortages of large-screened high-end handsets are expected to affect holiday sales of smartphones. Inventory of the Apple iPhone 7 Plus and the Google Pixel XL are both limited. And this year, there is no high-end Galaxy Note phablet getting rung up thanks to the removal of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 from the marketplace following several explosions.

With one month of the fourth quarter already complete, retail analysis firm Wave7 says that there have not been many large-screened handsets to promote outside of the iPhone 7 Plus. Wave7 does say that the Pixel XL is the only other large screened … – Source

The T-Mobile Galaxy S7 just got a whole lot faster

256QAM? 4×4 MIMO? All you need to know is that the T-Mobile Galaxy S7 is now way faster.

If you’re running a Galaxy S7 or S7 edge on T-Mobile, today’s update just made your phone a lot faster — network-wise, that is. Specifically, the second part an update promised back in September (and rolled out in October) enables connection speeds up to 256QAM for downloads and 64QAM for uploads in markets that support it.

This comes after an update was issued for the phones to enable 4×4 MIMO (multiple input, multiple output), a technology that has long been used to improved throughput on wireless devices from home routers to smartphones — essentially making the phone the world’s fastest, at least in theory. While most people will never experience the theoretical peak speeds of 400Mbit/s, it’s nice to know that T-Mobile continues to push its mandate of being the most technologically-forward in the U.S.

There are practical benefits to this, especially for those who aren’t in markets densely populated by T-Mobile towers. Because 256QAM connections rely on having a very low signal-to-noise ratio between the phones and towers, people are going to experience these faster speeds on less crowded towers, and in places where there is much less multipath — signals bouncing all over the place due to tall glass buildings and tons of interference. T-Mobile says that all of its cell sites have been updated to support 256QAM, and that 319 markets support the previously-released 4×4 MIMO. T-Mobile’s LG V20 should also support both of these network improvements, but only supports 3x carrier aggregation out of the box, according to Cellular Insights.

The update should be rolling out to all T-Mobile Galaxy S7 and S7 edge customers now, and Reddit users are noting speed test increases in the realm of 10% to 25% depending on the market. What are you seeing?

HTC Bolt with Nougat will reportedly be revealed on November 11 as Sprint exclusive

A new Android 7.0 Nougat smartphone, the HTC Bolt, may be on its way soon. A new report has surfaced with images of what appears to be leaked training slides from Sprint showing features of the currently unannounced smartphone.

The HTC Bolt was first leaked in September with a render that showed that it may have ditched the usual 3.5 mm headphone jack. Today’s new report from TechnoBuffalo, which shows the leaked slides, would seem to confirm it will be running Android 7.0 out of the box, along with the new Amazon Assistant. The Amazon Assistant will apparently give you the best results from Amazon while you’re shopping. For instance, if you’re shopping on WalMart’s website for a new toaster, you’ll see the best prices for that toaster at Amazon. Check out the image below for a better look.

The report adds that it will have a 5.5-inch 2K display, a 3,200mAh battery with quick charging features, a 16MP rear camera, an 8MP front-facing camera and IP57-rated water assistance.

The slides also show that the phone will come with what HTC calls “BoomSound Adaptive Audio” earphones that are supposed to automatically calibrate the sound for your specific ears. They are also supposed to feature speakers that are 70 percent larger than most headphones. The slides don’t mention anything about the HTC Bolt’s storage, RAM or processor, although previous rumors claim it will have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 CPU.

The report says that while Sprint is supposed to announce the HTC Bolt on Friday, November 11, the actual launch date for the phone and its price were not mentioned. Keep in mind that these slides and reports have not been confirmed by either HTC or Sprint, so take them with a grain of salt.
