YouTube finally ads thumbnail previews for videos
YouTube has finally added thumbnail previews on desktop. Users can now mouseover any video thumbnail on the website and get a 3 second preview of the video contents. This works on certain browsers only for now (Chrome and Opera) and is not available yet on mobile. The lack of thumbnail previews made it difficult to gauge the content of the video without clicking it, even though this technology has been available on some video sites for years now. This has been taken advantage of by content creators by using "clickbait" images for the thumbnails to entice viewers into clicking on...

Meizu Pro 7 Plus now shown in live image alongside the Pro 7

Samsung Galaxy Note8 leaks in new renders showing its front
While we wait for Samsung to announce the Galaxy Note8 (which may happen on August 23, according to the latest rumor on the matter), more and more stuff regarding the phone is leaking. Today we get three renders that are said to depict the upcoming phablet, though we're only treated to a view of its front. While the bezels are black in all three renders, there are three different UI themes showcased. So these three Note8 units might actually have different hues - but, just as it did with the Galaxy S8 and S8+, it looks like Samsung is going to make the front black regardless of color...

Thanks to a duo of pictures taken in the wild we may get our first real look at the China-bound Galaxy J7 (2017). It's worth noting that the new images come from the same reputable source. The phone in the pictures looks very similar to the Galaxy J7 (2017) which we handled in our office aside from the antenna lines on the back, which are straight. As of yet we don't...
