Meizu Pro 5 mini won't see the light of day

For those who were looking forward to the mini variant of the Meizu Pro 5 smartphone, there is some bad news: the 4.7-inch device won't see the light of day. This was confirmed by the Chinese company's founder and CEO Huang Zhang on Weibo.
The reason cited was that the recent earthquake in Taiwan has adversely affected their supply, and most of their inventory has been damaged. Hanging on to the Pro 5 mini would have delayed the device beyond acceptable limits so they decided to ditch the project altogether.
Zhang said the company will now focus on the Pro 6 flagship instead. So we now know that a Pro 5 successor is in the works.

Microsoft Confirms Windows 8.1 is a Free Update

Image
Still no confirmation of an exact release date. Last week, Microsoft admitted the company was at work on the first major update for Windows 8 , codenamed "Blue." Details were scarce at the time, but Microsoft CMO and CFO Tami Reller has now formally revealed the update as Windows 8.1 during JP Morgan's Technology, Media, & Telcom Conference, reports Engadget . Unfortunately, there's still no confirmation of a precise release date. Reller stated Windows 8.1 will launch as a free update to both the standard Windows 8 OS and its ARM-based RT cousin. According to Reller, the update will roll out sometime later this year. A public preview is still slated for June 26, during Microsoft's upcoming Build conference. Last week, Reller stated the forthcoming update would address "customer feedback" Microsoft had received for Windows 8 and Windows RT. During the same talk, Microsoft announced the company had sold over 100 million licenses of it...

OnePlus One tops Galaxy S5, One (M8) in AnTuTu 4

Image
OnePlus continues to tease its first phone called the One. The maker has revealed it will use the Snapdragon MSM8974AC chipset – the one with Krait 400 @ 2.5GHz – and 3GB RAM for its debut handset. OnePlus released a screenshot of an AnTuTu 4 score, which tops all current flagships. This is the cumulative score, it doesn’t show the separate CPU and 3D scores that the device achieved, but they should be on par or better than any other Android on the market right now (or in the near future). AnTuTu 4 Higher is better Sort by Label Sort by Value OnePlus One 38179 HTC One (M8) 37009 Galaxy S5 (Snapdragon 801) 36018 LG G2 35444 Sony Xperia Z2 34986 Samsung Galaxy Note 3 S800 31109 The OnePlus One will also feature a 5.5″ 1080p screen, 13MP camera (check out the first samples here ) with Sony sensor and 4K video. It will be unveiled in a week and when it comes out in Q2 it will cost €350.

HTC 10 shows its face again, black version pictured

Image
HTC 10 is going official on April 12 but we know pretty much everything there is to know about company's next big thing. We know the design is a hybrid between the One M9 and One A9, we know about its Quad HD AMOLED screen and Snapdragon 820 chip, the possibility of a Snapdragon 652 model, its rumored retail price at €740, even the reported April 15 as a lunch date. HTC has begun a marketing campaign with teasers over the social networks, but the leaks are quite more revealing than HTC's hints. Today's leak show the black flavor of the HTC 10 shot next to its silver sibling. We've seen its metal chassis leak already in detail, though, and this gloomy shot only shows yet another view of the black version. Fingers crossed HTC did manage to keep something from leaking and will surprise us on April 12. Source • Via

Roku Streaming Stick (HDMI Version) Review

Image
Small on size, huge on content.  Between set-top boxes, video game consoles, Blu-ray players, and smartphones, devices that can stream video and audio content from the web to your television are a dime a dozen. And as the market becomes more crowded, product differentiation becomes harder and harder to achieve. Amazon's new Fire TV puts an extra effort into gaming, Apple TV provides an easy way to tap into the company's ecosystem, and Google's Chromecast is all about mirroring and casting.  Roku's new Streaming Stick , on the other hand, doesn't exactly do anything particularly different than the company's latest line of set-top boxes —in fact, it does a bit less—but what it does do is deliver a ton of content through an incredibly small and affordable piece of hardware. The recently released device is actually Roku's second generation Streaming Stick. The first iteration was identical in almost every way except that it required an MHL p...
