by Guest Jeff Causey- 0 replies
- 40 views
Android device owners who try to use the Google Contacts app on their mobile device are probably acutely aware of the limitations of the app. This includes shortcomings like lack of support for switching between accounts quickly and easily like so many other Google apps and some missing features compared to the web interface.

Xiaomi has launched a new smartwatch called the Amazfit Watch via their sub-brand Huami. The device is notable in that it includes the world’s first 28nm GPS sensor to be included in a smartwatch. The bad news is that the Amazfit Watch is only launching in China and may stay there, which will be too […] Come comment on this article: Xiaomi announces the Amazfit Watch Visit TalkAndroid http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/ac96e481b77bcb15efffa878d4567724._.gif News via TalkAndroid

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/24e8815688ad2beee6f68261207539ee.jpgA few days ago, Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams who plays Arya on the show said that “nothing will prepare” us for season 7, without revealing any other details about it. She did say on Twitter that she had finished reading the script for HBO’s next Thrones season. In an extensive interview about her character, her experience on the set and the fact that she’s nominated for an Emmy, Williams further explained why fans have to deal with the fact that Game of Thrones is ending soon, and why it’s perfectly okay to have a shorter season next year.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/3c3ae3035fe80fe7d35ea7a7b4d4cf9a.jpgWe’ve seen a ton of leaked iPhone 7 photos and videos, but many of them show iPhone 7 clones rather than actual iPhone 7 units, even if these fakes are based on actual iPhone 7 schematics. However, a case maker has now posted a slew of images that show accessories for the upcoming iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. These may be the best leaked iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus images yet, given that premier accessory makers like Spigen might know certain things about Apple’s coming iPhones that the rest of us don't.

We might get a spinoff series of some nature once it ends, but the story and the characters we've been following for the past six years are going away for good. So what are we supposed to do while we wait for season 7? What universe are we supposed to get lost in every weekend and spend the entire week discussing with our friends and colleagues?

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/df5aa8544a8a8edde399a3a7cb22c0df.jpg As recently as a few years ago, learning how to play the guitar meant years of price lessons with a teacher who might charge $50 or more each week. That money adds up fast, but things have come a long way over the past few years.

According to famed phone leaker Evan Blass, HTC is about to release a successor to the HTC One A9, an iPhone-lookalike that the company came out with last year. It's named the One A9s, the back looks an awful lot like my iPhone 6s, and the front is basically my old Samsung Galaxy S4. HTC, I thought you were better than this.

There will be another iPhone-like device from HTC, the One A9s

Everyone was puzzled by last year’s HTC One A9 because the company did very little to create a phone unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. The One A9, which closely resembled Apple’s iPhone but didn’t quite create any competition for it, came and went without anyone noticing. Aside from anything having to do with cosmetics […] Come comment on this article: There will be another iPhone-like device from HTC, the One A9s Visit TalkAndroid http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/cbf4b6ac80f3f49396de1fd14abda0e7._.gif News via TalkAndroid

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/fb5a115aec8248dafd61e042a9960c7d.jpgApple will soon unveil the iPhone 7, a smartphone that’s supposed to look almost exactly like the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s. But the device will pack better hardware, and bring over one massive change. The iPhone 7 will be the first iPhone to ship without a standard 3.5mm audio jack, and we still have no idea how Apple will deal with the matter. One solution would be wireless headphones, which Apple is reportedly working on. A new leak shows what appears to be Bluetooth EarPods that would ship with the iPhone 7. But we hope – and think – it’s fake. (more…) Trending right now: From the i…

It didn't show the same Surface Book hinge that Microsoft introduced on the first model. Instead, the image hints at a significant design change coming in this year’s Surface Book 2.

Apple is already being sued over iPhone 6 ‘Touch Disease’

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/3324b4f20959d18a6bbe0973a80bb268.jpgWell, that didn't take long. Less than a week after "Touch Disease" became a thing, Apple is already facing a class-action lawsuit over iPhone 6es which have unresponsive touchscreens and Touch ID sensors. "Touch Disease" is the name coined by iFixit for a recurring problem with iPhone 6 and 6 Plus handsets. Owing to a design defect with the handsets, the touch controller is susceptible to physical damage, which in practice means a whole bunch of iPhones with non-working touchscreens, display problems, and faulty fingerprint readers.

There are more affordable options that don't have the same quality as a Canon, and there are higher-end options that can match Canon's cameras but will cost you well over $10,000. For the perfect balance of quality and value, Canon is the best in the business.
