http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/bc2e2af9d9e5c41babe82ab91308d982.jpg If you already own a voice assistant at home, then you already have a home droid. Only, Amazon Echo or Google Home do not move around the house with you. However, there are plenty of startups working on robots for your home, and Kuri is one of this year’s cute robotic debutants. It might not be as smart as Alexa or Google’s Assistant, but this one will follow you around the house to ensure it can always do your bidding. Continue reading...

It wasn’t expected for BlackBerry to announce any consumer-focused products at CES 2017, but it’s new hardware partner seems to be taking care of that. A TCL employee released a teaser video showing a BlackBerry device with a physical keyboard along with hashtags for BlackBerry and CES 2017.

by Guest Jared Peters- 0 replies

White hat hacking is a rapidly growing market of ethical hacking to help prevent security and data breaches. Instead of maliciously trying to compromise a network, a white hat hacker would try and discover exploits for the sole purpose of getting those exploits addressed and patched, instead of stealing information.

by Guest Justin Herrick- 0 replies

Compact. Durable. Affordable. Those are three qualities school districts need in products brought into classrooms. Most of the laptops powered by Chrome OS nail one or two of them, but Acer’s latest offering to debut at CES 2017 consists of all three. The Chromebook 11 N7 (C731) is a “smart solution” for classrooms.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/562e9f509fee5b0cf6206f514eaf9a3c.jpg Lenovo is a relatively new name in the gaming space, and up until today the company's efforts to compete with the mainstream gaming heavyweights have been promising but spotty. That may be about to change, as Lenovo just announced its own brand of gaming PCs that it hopes will compete with the likes of Dell's Alienware, Asus's ROG, and other custom PC manufacturers like iBuyPower and CyberPower. Lenovo calls its new gaming line Legion, and its first releases will be a 4k-capable gaming notebook called the Y720, and a more budget-friendly Y520. Continue reading... Trending right now: …

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/9e1b7bf4a7ce52b99f3d2fae6ab10ba5.jpg Ever year, just like clockwork, chip manufacturers churn out processors that are smaller and more efficient than what came before. It's only January 3rd, but it looks like 2017 is going to be another boring year full of innovation per usual. Apple chip manufacturer TSMC is reportedly on schedule to deliver prototype chips using its new 7nm process by the summer of this year. Provided everything else runs on schedule, that should mean the extra-tiny chips will be ready for mass production in 2018, just in time for the iPhone 8s... and the start of President Trump's re-election campaign.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/0e9aaa94ed1afafcae82429179f4a3e8.jpg The iPhone 7 Plus is a pretty huge phone, so choosing a battery case is particularly difficult. You need something with a nice big battery, of course, but you also want the case to be as slim as possible so it doesn't add too much bulk. Don't worry, we have just the thing: the Iconic iPhone 7 Plus Battery Case is on sale right now on Amazon for just $12 if you use the coupon code TZ2EE7JW at checkout.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/b126d7447190ebeb46037c897857fe8f.jpg We already have phones that can be unlocked with either a fingerprint or a face or iris scan, but Synaptics came up with an all-in-one system that makes use of both these technologies for an extra layer of security. The company already announced it has a solution to embed a fingerprint sensor into a smartphone display — a feature that will be seen in at least one new smartphone this year — and the new announcement reveals the company is looking to take personal data security to a whole new level. In the process, Synaptics may have developed the all-in-one solution that allows smartphone make…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/85e3df5f8135e85278311cdc79ab97c4.jpg The second half of 2016 was bittersweet for Samsung. Granted, it was far more bitter than it was sweet, considering Samsung had no choice but to cancel the hottest smartphone it has ever created when it kept exploding in users' hands. It also had to recall more than 1 million handsets, a process that is still ongoing today. Yes, bitter indeed. But the sweet part came when data released by a market research company suggested that Samsung phones accounted for 22% of all activations over the holiday period, a figure that was actually up 1% compared to the holidays in 2015.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/9bbca55aace384f14413f721692017f7.jpg Apple Watch fans, we have good news and bad news. The good news is that a new report suggests Apple's next-generation Apple Watch, presumably called the Apple Watch Series 3, is on track for a release at some point in the third quarter this year. Better yet, the new Apple Watch model will feature big improvements in two key areas that are still pain points for some users. The bad news, however, is that it looks like you're out of luck if you were hoping to see a big hardware redesign this year, or even any exciting new hardware features. Continue reading...

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/8537f5359f16ad5c9f61143ad557120d.jpg Intel's Core processors have long been the overwhelming favorite amongst PC gamers when compared to AMD's alternatives. AMD's chips have impressive specs of their own, and have been shown to outperform Intel's hardware under certain circumstances, but unlocked i7 processors from Intel are still the go-to for overclockers and enthusiasts. AMD would love to change that, and it's going to try with the new Ryzen chip architecture. Some recently released benchmarks show that AMD is at least on the right track. Continue reading...
