IDC: smartphone ASP to fall this year, most OSes growing

IDC's bold predictions of the faraway year 2018 caught our eye but the analyst company also put out much shorter term predictions for this year (we're already half way through it). The predictions echo what we've been seeing on the market – Android is the unquestioned leader, while on the other end of the spectrum BlackBerry is reaching the end of its tether. Worldwide Smartphone Forecast by Region, Shipments, Market Share (units in millions) Operating System 2014 Shipment Volumes* 2014 Market Share Android 997.7 80.2% iOS 184.1 14.8% Windows Phone 43.3 ...

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...
