Dieting and trying to improve your nutrition is a difficult task. Changing your mindset with food and watching how much you’re taking in will never be easy, but it doesn’t have to be that hard. Smartphone apps have made our lives much easier in a myriad of areas, and one of those specifically is fitness […] Come comment on this article: Best nutrition apps Visit TalkAndroid http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/6bf1931a622188ef060062b509210e52._.gif News via TalkAndroid

by Guest Doug Demagistris- 0 replies
- 23 views
As reported before, Huawei has high hopes for the future. Their goal is to surpass the number of smartphone shipments from rival Apple, which would put the company in second for marketshare. Huawei also wants to eventually pass Samsung to become the largest smartphone dealer in the world. Huawei’s first approach is going to be launching […] Come comment on this article: Huawei plans to take over the market with first ‘Daydream ready’ smartphone Visit TalkAndroid http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/534cfbc00fe6cccf24919b79afc68356._.gif News via TalkAndroid

Why Google Home has a lot of catching up to do

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/77d00d1dbf6277669606c3687771b091.jpg Amazon is quietly shaping the future of computing. The giant retailer created a popular voice-and cloud-based virtual assistant that’s smart enough to perform certain tasks and provide answers to our queries. Amazon doesn’t do voice better than Apple or Google, but Amazon nonetheless created a tool that made it easier for humans to talk to a machine. Google announced Home, a direct competitor for Amazon’s Echo, and Apple is rumored to introduce a similar device in the near future. But Amazon already has a major advantage over rivals: third-party integrations. (more…) http://androidf…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/40feb47fe4c8905ff2e1936e73c9f564.jpg If you're looking for a TV that will impress your guests and provide a top-notch viewing experience, there are two things you should aim for. First and foremost, you need 4K Ultra HD resolution. In this day and age, unless you really want to save some cash, 4K is a must. And second, if you really want to set yourself apart, you should consider a curved TV. Yes, it does enhance the viewing experience a bit, but it's also something cool that no one else has. Well guess what, you don't have to break the bank to check both of those boxes. The Samsung UN55KU6500 Curved 55-Inch 4K Ultra HD Smar…

‘Overwatch’ review: unrivaled, but unfinished

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/3f75bfa78cdfc26b72a80b7058ed16d6.png A good shooter now; a great shooter to come Overwatch, like many of Blizzard's games, is the culmination of a genre. World of Warcraft is the biggest MMO of all time, StarCraft is the high-water mark for strategy games and Hearthstone has no close competitors. Now Overwatch has come to dominate the FPS landscape, and with a solid core gameplay loop, a colorful roster of characters and just enough content to charge full price, it might have already accomplished its goal.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/5bdb0ffa1234e50ca1d884cd9c70c925.jpgAndroid fans are eagerly waiting for Android N to come out, as that means new Nexus hardware is due. Multiple reports said this year that HTC will build no less than two devices for Google, with some rumors even claiming that the Taiwanese smartphone maker has scored some sort of Nexus exclusivity deal for the coming years. That doesn’t seem to be the case, as Huawei just seemed to confirm that it’s working on at least one more Nexus-branded device after last year’s Nexus 6P.

The majority of us here at Talk Android believe that Android TV has seen its better days, and Google Cast will seemingly take over.

5 things you can do to make your iPhone faster
by Guest Zach Epstein- 0 replies

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/ae664c24f4eb24b13bfbf9ed49ab03dd.jpgApple's iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are two of the fastest smartphones in the world. In fact, in real-world speed tests there's no phone that can beat them. Last year's iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are no slouches either, of course, and the iPhone SE and iPhone 5s are speedy little phones as well. But as quick as they are and as smooth as the iOS user experience is in general, things can always be faster. In this post, we'll show you five simple things you can do to give your iPhone a serious speed boost, and these tips will all work regardless of which iPhone model you own. (more…)http://an…

Leaked images show iPhone 7 Plus’ two most important new hardware features

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/ca09caf42c2689f53f0b94521f198828.jpgA photo that leaked recently gave us what is probably our first look at a real iPhone 7. It looks like... an iPhone 6. In light of recent rumors that were just firmed up by newly leaked pictures though, it makes perfect sense. In 2015, Apple pushed consumers toward pricier iPhone models (with higher ASPs and better margins) by quadrupling the amount of storage in the mid-tier model as compared to the base model. This year, however, rumor has it that entry-level iPhones will have 32GB of storage instead of 16GB. That's probably enough for many users, so how will Apple get people to pay more for…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/bef9e0f7378412e38d98987498b61e3f.jpg Amazon's really off to a great start in June as far as daily deals go. The retailer has been offering killer bargains across a wide range of categories, and we dug through hundreds of them on Thursday morning to pick out 11 in particular that you should definitely check out. Included among them are a cable modem that will save you $120 a year on your internet bill when you return the modem you're using now to your ISP, a food-saver vacuum sealing system that will save you hundreds more by keeping your food fresh and reducing waste, a huge 60-inch 4K TV for under $1,100, the craziest mechanic…

Apple's mobile market share plummets in May as Android skyrockets

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/f83b044df25ecaf2d833f5dd7362f734.jpgSales of Apple's iPhone line of smartphones declined for the first time ever last quarter and everyone has been down on Apple ever since, from the media and investors and even to many end users. What's more, iPhone 7 leaks have suggested that Apple's upcoming new smartphones for 2016 will feature a design that's largely the same as the company's current iPhone models. Apple's situation certainly isn't as dark as some are making them out to be, but there's little question that things are trending downward right now — and May's mobile market share data offers even more gloomy data to that effect…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/845df5730fd5de703e41d3faf8996b94.jpg In the world of consumer technology, it is beyond rare to find a product that holds up well against the competition one year later. And two years later? Forget about it — technology moves so quickly that it's impossible for a two-year-old device to hold a candle to more modern options. Right? Right? Wrong.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/e1012916e5f0e60e4d501c643b86337a.jpgThere's no denying that Uber is the 800 pound gorilla in the room when it comes to ride sharing, but whereas Uber seems to generate controversy at every turn, the company's chief competitor -- Lyft -- seems to engender nothing but positive vibes. Ask any driver who works for both companies and it's a safe bet that he/she will have more glowing things to say about working for Lyft than for Uber. So while Lyft may not have the name recognition or jaw-dropping valuation that Uber currently boasts, Lyft undoubtedly has a leg up when it comes to promotion. As part of an ongoing series featuring cel…
