OnePlus didn’t want it to happen, but it happened. Today started with official information regarding the OnePlus 5 launching this summer. Rather than doing a surprise introduction on a random day no one knows about, OnePlus revealed its 2017 flagship would get detailed on June 20 at 12:00PM ET. Everyone marked their calendars and prepared for […] Come comment on this article: Time to greet the OnePlus 5 before it’s official Visit TalkAndroid News via TalkAndroid

Although the Galaxy S8 has dominated headlines over the past several months, the Pixel remains one of the most interesting Android phones on the market. As the first phone designed by Google, the Pixel has received a great deal of attention since its launch last October. Unfortunately, not all of that attention was for the right reasons, as the Pixel has hit several snags along the way. Continue reading...

Apple barely scratched the surface of iOS 11 during its WWDC keynote, focusing only on some of the major software features coming to iPhone and iPad this fall.

When it comes to mass market EVs, there's no denying that Tesla is the company to beat. Thanks to the popularity of the Model S, the Model X and the forthcoming Model 3, Tesla at this point is practically synonymous with electric cars. That said, the EV marketplace is growing more competitive with each passing month, especially as traditional automakers devote more and more resources towards EV development. What's more, Tesla also faces growing competition from upstart EV companies such as Fisker, the brainchild of legendary car designer Henrik Fisker. Continue reading...

Humans have now had rovers active on Mars for almost two full decades, which is enough time that we've learned plenty about the Martian landscape. We know all about the soil, the geography, and even the places where water most likely flowed free on the surface of the red planet at one time, but we still don't know everything. One place in particular, in the souther hemisphere of Mars, is giving scientists some serious grief. It's a massive pit, and nobody knows how it got there. Continue reading...

One of the surprises that came out of Apple’s WWDC keynote was the company’s official endorsement of external graphic cards. Soon after the MacBook Pro came out, users figured out a way to improve performance by connecting the laptop to an external GPU. The procedure isn’t simple, and some believed Apple could kill it in future macOS releases. However, a few months ago while talking about the future of the Mac Pro, Apple said it’s not against such devices. Fast forward to WWDC, and it looks like Apple ready to fully embrace them. That means you can buy an official Apple external GPU right now — but there’s at least a twist. Continue reading... Trending right now: …

WWDC 2017 had us all tied up on Monday, so we weren't able to dig through all of yesterday's iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free in order to pick out the best of the bunch.

When Tim Cook took the stage to wrap up the WWDC 2017 keynote on Monday with one final announcement, he clearly had saved the most interesting for last. The HomePod isn't Apple's first entry into the high-end home audio market — the iPod Hi-Fi is still fresh in the memory of many Apple fans — but it is the first Siri-enabled device meant to occupy a place on your countertop or coffee table. These are uncharted waters for both Apple and its quirky virtual assistant, and even if the HomePod is currently being pitched primarily to music lovers, it's also an exciting device for smart home diehards and gadget lovers in general. So, what are people saying about it? I'm so glad …

Unless you've been trapped in a VR cave, you've probably heard by now that Apple has a new version of iOS. The 11th edition of Apple's mobile OS has it all: redesigned apps, a system-wide facelift, new Siri, and yes, a kinda-sorta Dark Mode. Continue reading...

Apple’s iOS 11 is finally official, which means you can already try it out for yourself if you’re comfortable with running the first iOS 11 betas that Apple made available after the WWDC 2017 keynote. The software update is chock full of new features, and we shouldn’t be surprised. After all, this is the iPhone’s tenth anniversary that will mark the launch of a special iPhone. And the iPhone 8 can’t run a “boring” version of iOS. While at first, it may seem very similar to iOS 10, and that’s certainly true, there are plenty of major changes inside iOS 11 that will make you forget about last year’s iPhone operating system, as you get used to the new tricks.

Apple on Monday gave the world its first look at iOS 11, the company's next-generation mobile operating system. In doing so, Apple showed iPhone and iPad users all of the exciting new features they'll have access to this fall, once iOS 11 is released to the public. Of course, eager iOS device users also have the option to sign up for the public iOS 11 beta, or they can even install the developer beta right now quite easily, though that would be ill-advised since it's quite buggy at this stage. New features such as a revamped Messages app, Siri enhancements, and a completely redesigned Control Center have users excited for iOS 11's upcoming release this fall. But unfort…

Following Apple's WWDC keynote on Monday, Apple CEO Tim Cook sat down with Bloomberg for an interview that touched on a number of varying topics, including his thoughts on augmented reality and Donald Trump. Before getting to that, though, it's worth highlighting Cook's remarks on the HomePod, an entirely new product category for Apple. Designed to deliver a superior audio experience, the HomePod -- despite its clunky name -- could very well prove to be a sleeper hit for Apple once it hits store shelves later this year.

Sure, Apple may have held back a handful of top-secret iOS 11 features during its big WWDC 2017 keynote on Monday. After all, the company can't include anything obvious in its early iOS 11 builds that might pull back the curtain prematurely on iPhone 8 details.
