The Wireless Charging Consortium today announced a major update to the Qi Wireless Charging standard that will allow future Qi chargers to deliver up to 15W of power to your device.

Contrary to expectations, the first analyzes of these devices have not been positive. To clarify doubts and to show the reality, Qualcomm has come to the public to defend its creations and try to restore the truth. When the tech giant Microsoft and the giant chip manufacturer Qualcomm introduced the first Always Connected PC, the promise of machines with acceptable processing power, thanks to ARM processors and above-average battery capacity, was on the air....

When the Razer Phone launched late last year, the company made sure that the green-and-back three-headed snake logo was easily viewable on the back of the handset. But, special editions means some colors can change. To help celebrate the Year of the Dog on the Chinese calendar, and the Spring Festival, Razer has officially launched a brand new variant o the Razer Phone, with one distinct difference: Instead of the green-highlighted logo on the back, it now has a gold color scheme....

Sony’s late 2013 flagship phone, the Xperia Z1, has all the makings of a champion. There’s a Snapdragon 800 in there, 2 GB of RAM, and a 20.7 megapixel camera. Unfortunately, the camera isn’t too hot, and the phone, while eye catching, is bulky due to the massive bezels around the otherwise “small” 5.0 inch 1080p display. Sony being Sony, they sell the Z1 in three colors: White, Black, and Purple....

But then, as we all know, the S20 Pro did not quite live up to its potential, being bugged by focusing issues (oh, the irony) and a few other issues. Can the S21 Ultra do better? Dem cameras, dat zoom…much wow! Well, it does do better. And by a colossal distance. So much so that we can confidently call the Galaxy S21 Ultra the best camera phone in Android, and that is including the much-vaunted Pixel range....

A good credit score is considered to be above 700 on the 300 to 850-point scale. Very few people breach the near-perfect score of 850, so don’t feel too bad if you come in lower than that. The number of adults in the U.S with a good score might even shock you. By some estimates, only 21% of Americans have a FICO score rated as good. It can be tough, but there are ways to improve it....

OnePlus’ head of global marketing and general manager for North America, Kyle Kiang, says that the company cannot divert stocks meant for other parts of the world to the U....

Not every product is a smash-hit, no matter how much excitement gets built up for it before launch. Case in point: OUYA. The Android-powered video game console that was meant to revolutionize living room gaming never really found a foothold, with results far less than stellar — and much worse than the expectations. Now, according to a new report, it looks like Ouya, the company behind the similarly named console, are looking for the exit....

The first camera phones had 0.3 megapixel shooters. Shocking, I know, and as the years have passed we’ve seen higher and higher resolution cameras. The Nokia 808 PureView is the champion with 41 megapixels, which is just bonkers, but everyone will tell you that more doesn’t always mean better. The Finnish handset maker realized this with the Lumia 920, probably the first smartphone with optical image stabilization, a feature normally seen on dedicated point and shoots....

In late October 2014, Samsung officially unveiled the metal-clad Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5. A pair of mid-range devices, the new handsets marked a future where metal was more than just a possibility. The handsets were not immediately available in the United States, though, so many buyers were left out in the cold. That changes now, though, according to a report initially published by Android Central on Monday, December 29....

The result? Almost every smartphone OEM is focusing on the products they sell under the Rs 35,000 price bracket. Be it OnePlus, Xiaomi, Huawei, and even HMD Global’s Nokia. However, one company has remained largely absent in this segment — Samsung. Yes, the Korean juggernaut which still holds the majority of the market share. But it has begun bleeding numbers now, and it’s making changes left and right to reestablish its unprecedented reign....
