Well the last Nokia Phones were only middleclass at best, but rumors say that HMD is working on a Nokia Android Flagship, called Nokia 9.

Well as mentioned the latest Nokia Phones were all below the 300€ mark, so they can’t quite be considered highend, but the latest leaks show that HMD Global is currently working on a Nokia flagship device. The Nokia 9 , that’s what it might be called, will feature real good tech including an iris scanner and audio features by Nokia Ozo. NokiaPowerUser has also leaked some of the alleged specs for the Nokia 9 :

And the list goes on suggesting that the Nokia 9 might even feature the Carl-Zeiss camera that we learned to love in previous devices. All in all this actually sounds to good to be true and we can’t confirm any of those leaks yet. It looks like we have to wait for future more reliable leaks.

The korean times apparently knows the update schedules for the LG V10 and the G4

An unnamed korean official has reortedly toled the korean times that the popular 2015 phones, the LG V10 and the G4 will receive their share of Nougat this year. The LG V10 will go first in the second quarter, so some time from march to may, while the G4 will get the update in the third quarter , so some when from june to august. Initially there were no plans for updates for those devices, since there were compability problems, but it seems they have been sorted out. I assume that korea might be the first market that will get the update , but we have no word on that. I for one will be looking forward for the Update for my own V10.

The release of the Samsung Galaxy S8 is getting closer , so we see new leaks every day.

So the latest leak of the Samsung Galaxy S8 is a video. This new Video , as well as 2 more images, has shown up earlier showing the device from the front and the back. The funny thing about this short 5 second clip is that the device has a „confidential“ sticker on the back, that didn’t stopt it from being leaked.

The pictures i mentioned above show off the Devices large screen as well as what seems to be the first case for the S8.

In the second one we see the lock screen in an active state with a passcode being put in. So far all rumors have been consistent and the Samsung Galaxy S8 will feature a fingerprint sensor on the back, no home buttin and the large and curved infinity display.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 will be unveiled at the end of the month in New York.

To promote the new Movie Kong: Skull Island the fictional piece of land has been added to Google Maps.

Soon we will have a new reboot of a franchise, this time King Kong. In order to promote the Movie Google Maps has teamed up with Legendary and Universal pictures to add Skull Island on the Map Server. The fictional island is located near the equator and a few thousand miles west of Peru and is labeled as an „archeological site“.

Google Maps lets the user add their own phantasy reviews and pictures of skull island as a promotion. So far over 6000 people engaged and shared their thoughts, resulting in a pretty cool summary and a few very charming images. The island itself would be pretty deadly to all of us since it is inhabitated by giant animals including our favourite ape King Kong. The movie is the second in a „monserverse“ quadrology, followed by Godzilla: King of monsters in 2019 and Godzilla vs. King Kong in 2020 .

Well apparently the UI of the Google Play Store will get a nice little tweak.

As you can see in the Image above the Google Play Store will get a nice little UI tweak to make your life easier. It appears that the Update page now lets you update individual apps with only one tap. Previously you had to either update all or get on the app’s page in order to update a single app. It’s not the biggest update but it is a small step towards making your life easier and tasks simpler.

After the whole Note 7 drama , Samsung is pretty keen on quality ensurance, and now a new office for that has been announced.

After last year’s Drama and the following Lawsuits around the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 the tech giant from Korea has announced that they will open up a new quality ensurance office. The Ofiice will be led by Kim Jong-ho , who joined Samsung in 1983. He is an engineering expert at Samsung who contributed a lot to the smartphone branch of Samsung. In 2015 he was awarded the Gold Tower Order of Industrial Service Merit for his contribution to expanding the electronics and IT industries, this price is the highest honor a businessman in Korea can receive. He is seen in the picture below.

With this new office the company hopes to never have one of the Note Dramas again, especially with all eyes on the Galaxy S8 and S8+ right now. Let’s hope that we will never have to worry about our phones exploding again.

We’ve heard about samsungs project Valley quite a few things, now we know the name it will get , Samsung Galaxy X.

The korean tech company has been experimenting with the Project Valley, a series of foldable smartphones, for quite some time now and we heard numerous rumors. Now it seems that there has been a huge step forward towards the user hands. Samsung got an official trademark for the series of Devices, that will according to rumors, also come in 2 different sizes called the Samsung Galaxy X1 and Galaxy X1+.

So it is still in application, but that might mean that there is an actual prototype soon to be seen somewhere. In case you were wondering , a roadmap shows that the devices could be here in Q3 or Q4 this year, so I’ll keep a very close look at samsung when at IFA this year. For those who haven’t seen the Devices pre-patent designs, here is what it might look like.

As a friend of flip-phones back in the day, those images really strike with me, what do you think? would you get one (if the price is not too high) or wait until the tech is fully developed?

In a new update Gmail now allows you to receive files up to 50 MB , doubling the incoming Data limit.

With the latest update on the G Suite blog we have been informed that you can now receive files up to 50MB . Previously it was only 25 MB without the use of Google Drive. It comes in quite handy if you use gmail for business purposes. The downside however is that the sending limit is still at 25 MB. So the increased cap will only work if the sender uses an email service that allows larger files than that. If you’re wondering in what scenario these numbers might be needed, imagine working in an engineering or planning office needing to send out multiple plans or pdf files. As someone who had to deal with this I really appreciate the efforts made by Google to upgrade that.

For a lot of people Pokemon Go is still a fun game to play and after the last big Update developer Niantic teased new Updates at MWC 2017.

A few Weeks ago the popular AR-game Pokemon Go got its first major update introducing a bunch of new items and 80 new Pokemon from the second generation, originally revealed with Pokemon Gold and Silver back in the day. At this years Mobile World Congress in Barcelona Developer Niantic took the stage and said that there will be three more major updates in 2017. Niantic CEO John Hanke did not reveal anything about the upcoming contents and took no questions from the audience. The only thing he did reveal were some interesting Numbers. The international Pokemon tariners caught 88 billion Pokemon since its initial release in July 2016 and was downloaded over 650 million times. All in all folks spent 44 petabytes of mobile data for the digital hunting trips. Those are quite some numbers and the rumors what the planned updates will bring us are starting to boil. I for one hope vor some PvP action or trading , preferably with players from around the world in a marketplace kinda deal , so you can get those Pokemon that are not available in your Regions.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 launch event is about a montha away, but thanks to Evan Blass, we get a first good look at it.

According to Evan Blass, this will be the Samsung Galaxy S8, which will be launched on March 29 th and be available some time in April. We see that it has a great bezel-less design, like teased before. The new button on the right hand side might be a designated AI Button to start Samsung’s new personal asissitant Bixby. The biggest design change to previous devices is the fact that the physical home button is gone, some might not klike it but I think it’s a good choice. I certainly hope to see more of it before it’s launch.
