The Tizen 3.0-powered Samsung Z4 was made official back in May this year. It went on sale in the Asian country of India a week later. Now, according to a new report, it will soon be launched in Africa as well. Specifically, the report notes the device will be available in South Africa, although an exact date or time frame wasn't revealed. It further says Vodacom South Africa will be offering the handset (in gold color) for ZAR 1,299, which translates into around $100. Last year, the Samsung Z2 was also launched in South Africa. Via

Pixel Launcher fully ported for non-rooted devices
Developer AmirZ on Reddit has successfully created an APK of a port of the Google Pixel's launcher. It's based on AOSP's Launcher 3 and can be installed to any Android phone. If you want to read how the developer was able to succeed in the port of the app, check out the source link below. With the demise of the Google Now Launcher, there is no longer a launcher that offers an alternative launcher experience from Google. Giving everyone the option to use the launcher that was offered on all Nexus devices was really cool. Not to mention it integrated Google Now right into the left page of...
HTC releases U11's kernel source code
Today, ROM developers can head to HTC's dev site and download the source code for the HTC U11. While this may not mean much for the average smartphone user, this is exciting for hard-core enthusiasts who still like to tinker and flash different ROMs on their handset. The kernel source code is released as per the GPL (General Public License), which guarantees the end user the "freedom to run, study, share, and modify the software". Some of us at the office used to flash all kinds of different ROMs on certain smartphones, but with smartphones and their UIs much more polished these...

After applying the new software, your XZ or X Performance will happily be on the June 1, 2017 security patch level, as evidenced by the screenshot below. For both phones, the build number of the new release is 41.2.A.7.8. The Android...
Front and rear panels for the iPhone 8 leak, glass backs for iPhone 7s and 7s Plus too
Mere hours ago a leak claimed to show us the metal frame of the upcoming iPhone 8, and now we can basically complete the picture. That's because of the two images you see below, which show the device's front and back panels. These are said to come from "a friend in the industry" and they certainly look more believable than other such revelations from the past. The first picture shows just the front and rear panels for the iPhone 8, as you can see. This is going to be the most expensive iPhone yet, and it will feature a near-bezelless AMOLED panel provided by Samsung. The screen...
Huawei says it sold more smartphones than Apple in December
Huawei has been the third largest smartphone maker in the world by sales volume for quite a while now. However, the Chinese company claims it managed to switch places with second-place Apple for a month last year. Allen Wang, Director for Product Centre at Huawei India, says his company overtook Apple in global smartphone sales in December 2016. According to him, Huawei reached 13.2% market share that month, compared to Apple which was "in the range" of 12%. What's more, Wang also said Huawei is selling more than even Samsung in certain markets - without naming any of those,...
Google Pixel XL's direct successor canceled, replaced with bigger device
A couple of months ago we heard that Google was working on not two, but three new Pixel-branded smartphones for 2017. Two of those were said to be direct successors for the Pixel and Pixel XL launched last year, with the third model being bigger than either of them. They were codenamed Walleye, Muskie, and Taimen, respectively. Today a new rumor claims there will only be two Pixels coming out this fall after all. However, which of the three aforementioned devices was canceled may surprise you. Apparently the Pixel XL's direct successor was canned, the Muskie that is, leaving the smaller...
Save up to $60 by pre-ordering the iPad Pro 10.5 from Walmart
While Apple's new iPad Pros, in both 10.5" and 12.9" sizes, are undoubtedly its most powerful tablets yet, they're also the most expensive. So we've already told you that if you grab one of them from Best Buy you'll receive either a $25 or $50 gift card. But now Walmart is topping that deal, both in value and in convenience. No pesky gift cards are involved here, the price you pay is simply lower. Do keep in mind though that only the iPad Pro 10.5 has received the Walmart offer treatment. If you want the 64GB Wi-Fi model, the normal price is $649 but the retailer is only asking you for...
Sony Xperia XZ Premium is now on pre-order in the US for $799.99 unlocked
Today Best Buy has started taking pre-orders for the unlocked Sony Xperia XZ Premium smartphone, just as expected. The Japanese company's latest flagship device can be yours for $799.99, and the retailer is offering it in three color versions: Deepsea Black, Luminous Chrome, and Bronze Pink.

Refurbished Galaxy Note FE launches on July 7 with Bixby onboard
Samsung's refurbished Galaxy Note7 units are almost ready to launch, as it turns out. The refurbished model will be called Galaxy Note FE, a new report from the company's home country of South Korea claims. We've heard this name before, but Galaxy Note7R has also been floated in the rumors as a possible moniker for the handset. Anyway, the Note FE is apparently set to launch in Korea on July 7, one week later than initially thought. The reason for the delay is that Samsung decided to make more units available - 450,000 compared to the 300,000 it originally planned. That's a 50% stock...
Xiaomi Q2 2017 shipments show healthy growth
Xiaomi launched several phones this quarter and the move brought a rise in shipments. The company is on course to moving 20 million units in the second quarter of 2017, according to an industry insider. Q2 is undoubtedly a better quarter compared with Q1 2017 when Xiaomi managed to ship only 13 million units. The reason for the spike is the company's expansion into markets like Mexico, as well as the aggressive marketing in India. Xiaomi also is already selling the flagship Xiaomi Mi 6 and the refreshed phablet Mi Max 2, which enjoys great reception. According to the insider,...
Qualcomm is going with TSMC for 7nm Snapdragons, not Samsung
Samsung won the bid to produce this generation of flagship Snapdragon chips, but it seems that the next iteration will be forged at TSMC fabs. TSMC has been scoring some big wins recently, including building the current Apple 10 chips (at 16nm) and the Apple A11 on 10nm, plus Helio X30 on 7nm soon. Qualcomm reportedly approached Samsung to talk about the Snapdragon 845 (LG too). Samsung will likely be one of the biggest buyers of the new chip for next year's Galaxy flagships, but it seems it will not be building the chips in its factories. That was a profitable business on its own,...

Huawei Honor 9 benchmarked, shows flagship-level performance
The Huawei Honor 9 was just unveiled and thanks to Geekbench, we're getting our first glimpse at the performance of the Kirin 960 chipset at its heart. This is a CPU test so we're focusing on the octa-core processor of the new premium mid-ranger. It has four Cortex-A73 cores (running at 2.4GHz) and four A53 cores (clocked at 1.8GHz), which were built on TSMC's 16nm FFC process. Also note that the Honor 9 features 6GB of RAM, something even most flagships on the list below don't have. .jrGraphContainer { background: none !important; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee !important;} ul.jrGraph...
Meizu Pro 7 rear panel leaks confirms secondary display
Meizu Pro 7 is expected to arrive this month, according to the 2017 roadmap we saw before. There were some rumors and code leaks, suggesting dual cameras and a dual display. Now we know what that means thanks to a leaked image of the back panel. The rear panel and the accompanying render reveal Meizu Pro 7 is coming with a secondary display on the back. It will be joined by the dual camera setup and it will likely be used for notifications. Meizu Pro 7 is expected to have a 5.2" display with 3D touch and 6 GB RAM.

OnePlus 5 camera sample: black & white
Pete Lau is at it again - he's teasing the OnePlus 5, this time by posting a black & white photo taken with the upcoming flagship. From what we know of 5's camera, it will have a DxO-tuned 16MP dual camera (or 20MP?). Is one of the two sensors black and white, similar to Huawei and Leica's setup? This B&W photo suggests so, but it's also possible that it's just a monochrome mode of a regular camera. Unfortunately, Weibo (where Lau posted the photo) obliterated any EXIF clues. If you wanted to see a color shot, check out this photo posted by Lau a few days ago. OnePlus 5 photo: Black...
Samsung Galaxy Note7R will come in the same colors as Note7
Surprise, surprise - the Galaxy Note7R will come in the same four colors as the discontinued Galaxy Note7 - Blue Coral, Gold Platinum, Silver Titanium, Black Onyx. The report comes from Korean iNexs24 citing an anonymous industry source who also shares that the refurbished Galaxy Note 7R will be released at the beginning of July. Said source warns that supply may be limited though. The Samsung Galaxy Note7R will likely share its entire specs sheet with the Galaxy Note7, save for the battery which is expected to be a smaller 3,200mAh unit. This means we're to expect an octa-core...

Feign surprise, everyone, Huawei unveiled the Honor 9. Rumors got all the specs correctly, but sadly the bit that we didn't know - price - has not been revealed still.

The heart is HiSilicon's premium Kirin 960 chipset, same as the Mate 9 and P10. And with a generous 6GB of RAM, more than either of those flagships. Storage is a choice between 64GB and 128GB, both expandable (hybrid SIM slot). The...

The Essential phone - officially dubbed Essential PH-1 - was unveiled late last month. Shortly after, it was revealed that the company plans to ship out pre-orders "within 30 days." We didn't get any carrier partnerships info at that point however, so it's good that the blanks are now being filled in.
