The Vivo V9 has certain iPhone X-like qualitiesYour age is not a secretThe V9’s real party trick is built into the 24MP front facing camera, as Vivo claims – with the help of its AI (artificial intelligence) it will be able to work out your age, sex, skin tone and texture.

Perhaps the A1 OLED’s biggest selling point, however, is its unrivalled viewing angles – seriously, no other TV we’ve reviewed comes close to what this set can accomplish. Full review: Sony Bravia A1 OLEDLG OLED B7Want to get an OLED television that won’t break your budget? Where most televisions will produce around 1,000 nits of peak brightness, Samsung’s astonishing QLED TVs nearly double that.

Nvidia has announced some great new updates to its GeForce Experience application including the long and heavily requested ability to create gifs out of your best gaming moments. With most of the best gaming moments being shared on Gfycat or as just plain GIFs, it was inevitable that Nvidia GeForce would be able to let you create some of your own. Nvidia has added the ability for everyone to export their Highlights as GIFs just as they could have previously shot short videos. Being able to save

At long last, Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has broken his silence regarding the Cambridge Analytica data abuse scandal that has been active for several days. The Facebook head continues to describe Cambridge University researcher Aleksandr Kogan’s Facebook personality quiz app released in 2013. Facebook’s chief then admits to having been informed by The Guardian in 2015 that Kogan had shared the data of 50 million Facebook users, which he had obtained through said Facebook quiz, w

Ray tracing looks to be another one of those seemingly modest, but potentially significant upgrades that will hit the gaming landscape in the near future. Ray tracing allows for dramatically more lifelike shadows and reflections, along with much-improved translucence and scattering. The results just don’t look quite as natural or realistic as they would with ray tracing. Microsoft is the biggest fish in this new video game ray tracing pond, as the company announced DirectX Raytracing (DXR) in th

This week, the Huawei Mate 10 Pro can be yours for $100 off its normal list price of $799.99 via retail partners Amazon, Newegg, and B&H Photo and Video. While we saw pre-orders for the phone include $150 gift cards, this is the first big discount for the Chinese company’s flagship phone since its release last month. At $699.99, this price bests the price tags of similarly sized competitors like the slightly smaller iPhone 8 Plus and the slightly larger Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus. Huawai first annou

The latest development in the Samsung Galaxy X story isn’t the best news for those hoping to get hands on the anticipated foldable smartphone in 2018. In fact, it might be years until something along the lines of the foldable phone, like what we’ve seen in leaked Samsung patents, actually comes to fruition. “They [phone manufacturers] haven’t cracked the material science right now to produce electrodes that can repeatedly withstand bending and folding.” The pipedream for a foldable phone is for

The top-tier Huawei P20 will launch on March 27, just five months after the arrival of the flagship Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro. “Our Mate series is for heavy users, business users, [with] the focus on long battery life.” The handset is rumored to arrive in three variants with the most premium – dubbed the Huawei P20 Pro – tipped to pack three cameras on its rear, with one potentially boasting 40MP.

Your hidden iOS 11 notifications can be read aloud by Siri, even when your iPhone is locked, according to a newly discovered privacy bug. iOS 11 conveniently now lets you hide notification content, giving you the message sender’s name, but masking the details. Apple’s now-thwarted privacy option is turned on by default on the iPhone X, giving you more reason to appreciate Face Unlock. Why this is a big problemApple can easily fix this latest iOS 11 problem in an update. Today’s iOS 11 problem is

Currently Netflix uses a font called Gotham but that is all set to change, thanks to it adopting a new typeface that’s been developed in house. It’s called, drum roll, Netflix Sans and takes its inspiration from the current logo, mainly the cinemascope-esque curves that have become a main feature of the look of Netflix. “The clean and neutral lines give without taking, favoring art over distraction, and eliminating excess,” explains Nathan on his site. The move away from Gotham will also mean th

Baselworld 2018 is about to kick off, and ahead of the yearly watch show a new hybrid smartwatch has been announced, boasting two years of battery life.

In other ways it looks more conventional, albeit stylish, with a leather strap, a stainless steel body (that’s water-resistant to 30 meters) and an analog face, for a t

If you’ve been holding out for Intel to finally meet AMD head-on with core-crammed PC processors for the mainstream, Coffee Lake won’t disappoint you this year. Both VideoCardz and WccfTech have found evidence of octa-core Intel Coffee Lake S processors slated for post-June release.

We’ve heard that Apple is intending to bring out three new iPhone models this year, but it could offer a chance to own its iPhone X2 / iPhone XI for slightly less. Alongside these two OLED-shod models will be a 6.1-inch LCD-powered iPhone, which could be another version of the plus-size iPhone – possibly called the iPhone 9 Plus. The report states that the 5.85-inch iPhone could be cheaper than this model though, as Apple is reportedly sampling cheaper components in its makeup. All these things

After a year-long trial in the US, Instagram is spreading its ‘shoppable’ tags to eight other countries in advance of a potential global rollout. While third-party services are already available on Instagram that can make posts ‘shoppable’, this new Shopping on Instagram feature allows users to shop directly by using virtual price tags that are overlaid onto posts. The final transaction, however, still needs to take place on the brand’s web storefront, and can’t be completed in Instagram directl
