Lenovo Vibe K5 now available for pre-order in Europe

The Lenovo Vibe K5, which was unveiled alongside the Vibe K5 Plus back in February at this year's Mobile World Congress (MWC), is now available to pre-order in Europe. Specifically, pre-orders are currently live in Greece, with the device carrying a price tag of €199.
This comes over a month after the Chinese company launched the Plus variant of the smartphone in Given that the Vibe Plus carries a price tag of $126 in the Asian country, the €199 tag for the standard K5 seems a bit on the higher side.
Specs-wise, the Vibe K5 is powered by a Snapdragon 415 chipset, and sports a 5-inch HD display. Memory configuration is 2GB/16GB, while camera configuration is 13MP/5MP. A 2,750 mAh battery is there to keep the lights on.

Video shot on LG V20 details the advantages of Android 7.0 Nougat

Image
With no IFA to worry about, LG is setting up for its own September 6 party and it's cooking up some nougat - but the recipe is half about actual nougat and half about how awesome the new LG V20 will be. It will be the first phone to launch with Android 7.0 Nougat (no Nexus event yet). There's a heavy emphasis on multitasking - fast switching between apps (double tap the App switcher key), split pop-up video, quick notification replies, drag and drop between apps and more. The event will be held in San Francisco and Seoul and will come just after the bustle of IFA has died down. The V20 will have V10's secondary screen, its dual selfie camera AND G5's dual back camera for good measure. Other expected specs include a 5.7" QHD screen, Snapdragon 820 chipset with 4GB of RAM and a fingerprint reader. And as a demo of at least one of the four cameras, the promo video was shot on a V20. Looking at how smooth it is, even though it was shot handheld...

goTenna is a portable, bluetooth cell phone antenna

Image
Ever find yourself traveling way out in the middle of nowhere and unable to communicate with your friends? Well goTenna might be able to help you with that. The stylish pocket antenna connects to your phone via bluetooth and when it does, it is capable of picking up low-frequency radio signals from a 50 mile radius; the device basically turns your phone into a walkie-talkie. There are some limitations over what you can do with your newfound radio service, however. You won’t be able to make voice calls or connect to data, so don’t expect to stream cat videos on YouTube on your next hiking expedition. What you can do is send text messages and share your GPS coordinates with other goTenna users (via its iOS or Android app) and best of all, access to goTenna’s network is completely free. The goTenna team assures that all of your messages will be encoded and if a text doesn’t go through right away, the portable antenna will retry sending until the text is sent. Intere...

Sony's CES press conference scheduled for January 6

Image
New Year's Eve is approaching and with it time for celebration and, of course, CES. Today Sony confirmed its event will be held the day before CES officially kicks off on January 7. The Sony press conference will be held on January 6 (Monday) at LVCC, Central Hall. For those that won't be there, it starts 5pm local time and will run for 45 minutes, so you can expect the news of the new devices to roll in by 6pm PST. Sony's schedule lists 15 device categories, including tablets, netbooks, photography equipment and accessories, e-books, 3D video, portable and high-performance audio. So, we could be looking at a new Xperia Tablet or a Windows 8 tablet, but there's nothing in the rumor mill.

Anyway, we will be attending CES and we'll bring you news and hands-on impressions of whatever Sony does announce at the conference
