Google Fit doesn’t seem to be working well enough for Google’s liking in Wear OS watches, so the company is rumored to be working on an updated assistant for fitness that comes with AI inside. A new leak from sources speaking to Android Police claims the updated version will may be called Google Coach – that name could change before launch – and it’s set to leverage the company’s AI capabilities into advice for individual users. For example, Google Coach will be able to take your previous fitnes

The Huawei Mate 20 will feature the firm’s new Kirin 980 chipset at its heart, after the Chinese company confirmed the fact in a press release. The press release was sent to South African media, and Gearburn reports that it included the line “the Kirin 980 will power the Mate 20 Series.” That means that we could well see a Huawei Mate 20 Pro as well, with the wording suggesting multiple devices under the Mate 20 banner. We’ve also heard rumors of a Mate 20 Lite, which could see three handsets pa

In an attempt to make a splash on the Chinese smartphone market, Motorola has launched its new P30 mid-range handset in the country with a distinctly Huawei-esque color option. Available from today, the P30 (even its name makes it sound like a Huawei P20 successor) will be available in three colors: Bright Black (oxymoron), Jade Ice (it’s white) and Aurora (which is exactly like the Huawei P20’s gradient-sporting Twilight color in everything but name). You can check out the Motorola P30 in its v

Although the news wasn’t quite meant to surface yet, a premature Forbes post has confirmed that Diablo 3 will be landing on Nintendo Switch before the year is out.

As a special treat for Switch players, you’ll be able to kit yourself out with Ganandorf’s armor f

On previous Galaxy Note phones the nib has worked like a stylus, but it hasn’t been able to do anything when not touching the phone. The positive side is the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 seems to have solved that and offers all-day battery life – power users included. In fact, in our first five days of using the phone we’ve yet to run it completely down to 0%. For our full verdict of the battery, you’ll have to wait until our full review of the Galaxy Note 9. Bixby isn’t the worstThe Bixby button is th

Make up your mindOne university, Johns Hopkins, has already made great strides in mind control, creating a prosthetic limb that’s partly controlled by the mind . But, in some ways, it’s here right now, with a number of gadgets using different forms of mind control for power. This is a gadget that helps with meditation by helping you focus on your own brainwaves – not quite mind control, but more controlling your mind, to make meditation a more relaxing experience.

The company unveiled its ground-breaking liquid metal Turing Phone a few years ago, promising end-to-end encryption in a super-tough frame. Despite this rather checkered history, Turing is far from dead; in fact, the company has just announced its most innovative product yet, the HubblePhone. The original Turing Phone was supposed to use Android, but the software was switched to the little-known Sailfish OS halfway through production. The bad news is that the HubblePhone won’t be using Android e

Known Folder Move, which is basically a ridiculous name Microsoft came up for folder protection, gives users the option to automatically sync their desktop, pictures and document folders. If you use multiple Windows 10 PCs, this feature will also keep those folders synced across your multiple machines. Although this feature has been available to business users since June 2018, it’s only now being rolled out to all OneDrive users on Windows 10, according to a Microsoft spokesperson that spoke to

But, Microsoft and Amazon are keen on leaning into this partnership, now widely showing off Alexa integration into Cortana on Windows 10. This preview on Windows 10 devices allows Cortana to summon Alexa for further commands with the “Hey Cortana, open Alexa” phrase spoken; and vice versa on Amazon Echo devices with the “Alexa, open Cortana” phrase. Both iterations of this integration are handled as a skill on each platform, with Cortana being an Alexa on Echo devices and Alexa being a Cortana s

AMD has unleashed its Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX onto the world, and in the hands of one intrepid overclocker this mighty processor has been pushed to a new record with a boost to a hair’s breadth away from 6GHz across all of its 32 cores. A week ago, we witnessed an overclock to 5.1GHz across all cores, but obviously this fresh effort (spotted by Wccftech.com) rather blows that away. Cinebench champAlthough the Threadripper 2990WX has been pushed much further in Cinebench R15 post-release, with

Benchmarks have apparently leaked showing that the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 850 chipset, which was announced at Computex 2018 earlier this year, will indeed offer a performance upgrade, but not a huge one. The current crop of Snapdragon 835-powered Windows 10 on ARM laptops, such as the HP Envy x2, received lukewarm reviews, mainly due to their underpowered performance. When Qualcomm promised that the Snapdragon 850 chipset would offer 30% improved performance, as well as 20% better battery

Having bought Harman Kardon back in 2017, Samsung’s use of the audio brand’s expertise has been so far limited to AKG headphones bundled with its mobile phones, and some sonic tuning for its tablets. The partnership goes into full swing today however with the release of a new premium soundbar line. The HW-950 and HW-N850 are both Dolby Atmos speakers and DTS:X enabled home cinema kits – the first first to feature co-branding between Harman Kardon and Samsung. Both feature wireless subwoofers and
