Fossil Gen 6 smartwatches with  Snapdragon Wear 4100+ leak, will start at €300

Fossil Gen 6 smartwatches with  Snapdragon Wear 4100+ leak, will start at €300 Fossil’s Gen 6 smartwatches with Wear OS are “coming soon”, but that’s as far as the official page goes. But we can look to unofficial sources to see what’s in store – all models will use the Snapdragon Wear 4100+ chipset.

This is a relatively recent 12 nm chipset that is 85% faster than the Wear 3100, according to official numbers. It also supports 4G LTE (Cat. 4) and GPS, plus it has an improved AON co-processor for extended battery life. It can handle continuous heart rate measurements and an Always On display (with 64K colors, up from just 16 in earlier iterations of…

The upcoming Galaxy Tab S8 trio will feature Snapdragon 898 chipsets (not Exynos 2200)

The upcoming Galaxy Tab S8 trio will feature Snapdragon 898 chipsets (not Exynos 2200) A couple of months ago there was a massive leak of Galaxy Tab S8 specs covering three models – vanilla, S8+ and S8 Ultra. The vanilla model will support 45W charging based on that leak. In fact, all three models will, says reliable tipster Ice Universe.

They will be able to handle 10V at 4.5A, which matches the Galaxy Tab S7 models. Despite having larger batteries than phones, fast charging at 40 or more Watts on tablets is quite rare. Speaking of, the Galaxy Tab S8+ is supposed to have a 10,090 mAh battery, the S8 Ultra an 11,500 mAh battery, the vanilla model will have the smallest…

Netflix app for iPhone and iPad now supports spatial audio

Netflix app for iPhone and iPad now supports spatial audio Netflix is the latest app on iOS and iPadOS devices to support Apple’s spatial audio feature.

Users can toggle spatial audio via Control Center and initial reports have confirmed the feature is accessible on iOS14 and iPadOS 14. You should still update your Netflix app to the latest available version.

For a more in-depth look into spatial audio for music and the world of lossless and high-resolution formats…

vivo and nubia flagships both get certified at 3C

vivo and nubia flagships both get certified at 3C The Chinese Compulsory Certification (CCC or 3C) website has revealed two more flagships are on their way. One of them is a vivo V2145A, probably the vivo X70 Pro+, while the other is NX669J-S by nubia, likely the Red Magic 6S Pro.

We are pretty confident the new vivo phone is the highest tier of the upcoming X70 lineup since it is certified with 66W – the predecessor X60 Pro+ has just 55W, while the iQOO lineup has already been announced earlier this month.

We applied a similar logic for the Red Magic 6S Pro as well – CCC has certified the phone with 120W charging speeds, which are…

Google Fi will give you a Pixel 5a for a grand total of $216

Google Fi will give you a Pixel 5a for a grand total of $216 Google made the Pixel 5a mid-range smartphone official just yesterday, and already today the company is offering an incredible deal on the device, if you switch to its carrier, Fi.

Here are the details. You can get the Pixel 5a from Google Fi on a phone subscription, and you pay just $9 per month for two years. That adds up to a grand total of $216, which is less than half the phone’s full price of $449. After the 24 monthly installments, the phone is yours to keep – or you can get a phone subscription for another handset.

It’s important to note, however, that while the $9 per month…

WhatsApp is working on messages disappearing after 90 days

WhatsApp is working on messages disappearing after 90 days Last November, WhatsApp introduced messages that disappear after 7 days. A couple of months ago it also started work on “view once” messages, that are gone forever after you viewed them once, as the name handily implies.

Now it turns out that WhatsApp is also going to add another option for message expiry, and that’s 90 days. So whenever all of these features make it out of beta, you’ll be presented with a menu similar to the one you can see in the screenshot below, where you’ll be able to pick between “Off” (so messages never disappear), or choose to have your chats disappear after 24…
