We don’t yet know much for sure about the OnePlus 6T, but one very exciting feature has just been confirmed, namely an in-screen fingerprint scanner. Apparently the OnePlus 6T will also have a more unibody look than the OnePlus 6, though the company hasn’t gone in to detail as to the exact design. Interestingly, OnePlus also revealed that it originally planned to stick an in-screen scanner into the OnePlus 5T last year, but left it until now because the tech “wasn’t mature enough to meet [OnePlu

Google has also been involved in the development process of the Snapdragon 3100, to ensure it provides a fluid, seamless and rich Wear OS experience. A smartwatch that looks like a watchWith the Snapdragon 3100, Qualcomm is trying to help smartwatch manufacturers make their wearables look more like traditional watches. When watch mode is enabled, the Wear OS interface and main processor are turned off, with only the co-processor required for watch function. The Huawei Watch 2 catered for sports

iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and the iPhone XC? The iPhone X is about to get an upgrade with the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XCThis has been the mystery that’s been stumping us for months: what new phones will Apple actually bring out at the Steve Jobs theater? The more unexpected option will be a 6.1-inch handset that costs about two thirds of the price of the iPhone XS but offers similar technology. Apple Watch 4 and more on WatchOS 5It’s about time the Apple Watch 3 was replaced by the Ap

Qualcomm just announced its brand new wearable chipset that’s set to power a lot of upcoming Wear OS watches, and we’ve also heard which devices will be the first to sport it too. The Louis Vuitton Tambour Horizion and the Montblanc Summit 2 are two of the devices that will include the new processing tech. We expect them to sit at the higher end of the smartwatch market considering the price of each brand’s previous wearable tech products. Considering Fossil just launched a series of new smartwa

It’s emerged that a number of apps from the Mac App Store have been secretly gathering user data and uploading it to remote servers. The apps have now been removed from the Mac App Store, but if you have previously installed these apps, you should uninstall them straight away. This revelation follows similar stories of Mac apps gathering data without permission, and could point to a worrying trend. Macs have a reputation for having better security than Windows machines, mainly thanks to the Mac

While the ball-shaped robot features recreational play modes, the Sphero Bolt is all about coding and programming. The Sphero Bolt is also massively durable. The classroom of the futureIn addition, Sphero is selling the Bolt in multipacks direct to schools, in boxes of 15 units. It has the capacity to charge all 15 Sphero Bolt robots at once over the course of 6 hours, ready for the next day’s lessons.

It has been heavily rumored that the Samsung Galaxy S10 will have an in-screen fingerprint scanner, and a new report suggests it could be the most advanced one we’ve yet seen in a phone. ETNews reports that according to Taiwan Economic Daily, Samsung will put a third-generation Qualcomm ultrasonic scanner in the Galaxy S10. We’ve already heard rumors that Samsung would use a Qualcomm ultrasonic scanner; ultrasonic scanning is better than optical (which some in-screen scanners use), as it can map

Sony has revealed the Kingdom Hearts VR Experience for the PSVR. The announcement was made during the PlayStation Lineup Tour in Japan, the company’s pre-show before the Tokyo Game Show – which is happening in just a couple of weeks. The Kingdom Hearts VR Experience seems to let you play through snippets of key story moments through lead character Sora’s eyes, creating a more immersive gameplay experience than ever before. Fans of the charming franchise have wanted VR support for years, so this

It seems there’s a chance we might see Halo 5 on the PC yet, at least going by some new box art for the game which has emerged on Amazon. In its Amazon listing, Halo 5: Guardians has had some wording on its box subtly changed, and where previously it read ‘Only on Xbox One’, it now says ‘Xbox One Console Exclusive’. Therefore the theory is that Halo 5: Guardians is due the same treatment imminently, with Amazon having switched in the new box art prematurely. Gamers running Windows 10 can certain

For the update due next month, build 17754 was deployed – which just contained bug fixes – then that was swiftly followed by build 17755 arriving for fast ring testers, which as mentioned features an improved Your Phone app for Android. Your Phone has previously been pushed out to testers (and indeed to the Microsoft Store in general), but only with the ability to drag-and-drop photos between your Android phone and Windows 10 PC. That’s a nifty touch which beefs up the usefulness of the app cons

Shadow of the Tomb Raider ties up a three-game story arc with one very clear ambition: to reinvent one of the most influential characters in video game history without ditching everything that actually makes the Tomb Raider series fun. Crystal Dynamics’ 2013 Tomb Raider reboot put Lara Croft back to square one, with none of the cool confidence we’d come to expect of the character. Shadow of the Tomb Raider was intended as the game where Lara ‘becomes the Tomb Raider she was meant to be’, and her

Instagram’s newest update to its mobile apps finally recognizes what we’ve all long suspected: that the vast majority of the ‘gram’s user base communicates exclusively in the language of emoji. The photo-sharing platform’s latest interface tweak for Android and iOS adds a new shortcut bar, which puts your most regularly used emoji right above your keyboard. The new shortcut bar is available only via the comments icon under a post. It won’t pop up when you use the “add a comment” space or other a

The leaks surrounding Apple’s 2018 iPhone line have started to intensify, with the Cupertino company gearing up to officially reveal its new handsets later this week. According to recent reports, Apple’s iPhone X successor is expected to be called the iPhone XS, while another model, currently being referred to as the iPhone XS Max, will take the presumed iPhone 9 Plus slot thanks to its larger 6.5-inch display (and, we assume, zero sugar content). The leak also seems to clear up the confusion su

Proposed US tariffs on goods imported from China would most likely force an increase in prices on gadgets like the Apple AirPods and the Apple Watch , according to an letter from Apple to the Office of US Trade Representative that was published over the weekend. It’s not the first time that we’ve seen warnings about how the mooted trade tariffs could have an impact on gadget prices and sales. As Bloomberg reports , the Mac mini, the Apple Pencil, and numerous chargers and adapters might also get

Nintendo is launching an online subscription service for the Switch later this month, which includes access to multiplayer capabilities, classic NES titles of years gone by, and cloud backups for game data – but apparently that last feature won’t work on all your games. Game Informer did some digging on the Nintendo website and found a “this game does not support Save Data Cloud backup” message on some titles, including Pokémon Let’s Go, FIFA 19, Splatoon 2 and Dark Souls Remastered. Nintendo ha

Main image: Cubesats being released from the International Space Station. On June 12 2013 an Atlas rocket blasted off from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California carrying several satellites. He used their on-board cameras to prove that cubesats can be just as capable of taking photos of the Earth as full-sized satellites. Perhaps the clearest benefit of using cubesats, though, is something that normal satellites can’t cheaply replicate: ‘refresh rate’. He says that traditionally, space technolo

A new report says Apple is in talks with the likes of the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal about providing content for an upcoming subscription service – possibly a sort of Netflix for magazines and newspapers. As reported by Recode , Apple executives are busy trying to get the major newspapers on board ready to launch a new service at some point in 2019. Next year you might be able to pay Apple one monthly fee for everything you want to watch, listen to and read.

Can we ever really get to the point where Wi-Fi speeds are possible when we leave the comfort of our homes? “With latency sub-50ms and average speeds of 30Mbps – with peak speeds as high as 400Mbps – many consumers have a great mobile video experience already. The average speed on our 4G network today is 30Mbps, and 5G can increase that even further. Now, video is the norm in social media, and Netflix continually shows the greatest data growth of any service on our mobile network. “The plans we’

When you login to pre-order (from September 14 according to rumors) or step into store to pick up your new iPhone (which could be either September 21 or 28) you’ll likely have to choose between the iPhone XS, supersized iPhone XS Plus or the ‘affordable’ iPhone 9. The iPhone XS. The phones tipped to sandwich the iPhone XS will have their own draw, whether it’s the rumored supersized, 6-inch+ OLED display of the iPhone XS Plus (which may be called the iPhone XS Max) or the touted ‘cheaper’ price
