After the first three exclusive Google Assistant Devices, the AI now comes to a lot of Android M and N smartphones.

With the Pixel Smartphones Google announced their own personal assistant and in the beginning it was exclusive to those phones. Later with Android wear 2.0 the Google Assistant came to multiple smartwatches from different developers, and following that it came to the LG G6. Well the exclusivitiy is over since Google has startetd rolling it out to any Android M or N device in the US so far, other countries will follow. This video was posted earlier:

With this said at MWc questions rose who will get it when, this was said in this specific statement, which was published by Google.

The Google Assistant will begin rolling out this week to English users in the U.S., followed by English in Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom, as well as German speakers in Germany. We’ll continue to add more languages over the coming year.

The Google Assistant will automatically come to eligible Android phones running Nougat and Marshmallow with Google Play Services.

So we just need to wait for our own personal Assistant. Since I’m based in germany it might take a while but you can be sure to check back here for a detailed look at the Google Assistant once it arrives on my V10.

There has been quite some rumors surrounding what Xiaomi will present at MWC, as it turns out a new Processor and the first Device powered by it, the Xiaomi Mi 5c.

Well the Xiaomi Mi 5c is official as of now, unfortunately I won’t be able to tell anythiung about how good the home-grown processor , called Surge S1, will perform since it’s the first device to run it. No bechmarks has bveen leaked yet, but the specs sound like a solid mid-range device, competing against the likes of Nokia and the Moto G5.

The most obvious part was the screen. it’s a 5.15 inch screen with minimal beyels and a pretty highly adjustable brightness. As you can see above it claims to have aboce 2000 adjustment levels to always display the right brightness depending on what mode you’re using at this point. We have a regular 3GB of RAM with 64 GB storage, a 12 Megapixel sensor in the back, no word on the front facing one. The Battery is a pretty buff one with 2860 mAh and fast charging mode. The Xiaomi Mi 5c will be available in black, gold and rose gold, for approximately 220 USD . And it will be running Android 7.1 .

Here’s a quick recap of all that is important:

• Display: 5.15-inch
• Processor: Surge S1
• RAM: 3GB
• Storage: 64GB
• Rear Camera: 12MP
• Battery: 2,860mAh
• Colors: Rose Gold, Gold, Black

Sounds like a solid second phone. Let’s wait until we can get our hands on one of those Beauties.

Everyday another leak, this time the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus get their share.

So another alleged leak of the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus have emerged showing the difference in the devices size and giving us a glimpse at the new Home Butoon that has been rumored. The picturte was first shown at SamMobile, unfortunately without mentioni9ng a source or any information where it came from and how legit it was. But let’s talk about what we see here. The Samsung Galaxy S8 will come in 5.8 inch and the S8 Plus will come with 6.“ inch. Thise are quite the big numbers, but giving the really small bezel that we can see here, we can assume that it won’t be much larger than previous devices, we’ve seen that earlier with the pictures of the LG G6 & G5. The new Home button is , in my opinion, finally a softbutton and not a designated hardware key, which gives the device a bigger look.

We’ll have too wait long for this beauty, but on MWC 2017 we will finally know how long we have to wait.

Well as I said previously, the leaks of the LG G6 just keep popping up, and this time we see all 4 sides in a black finish.

Well so here they are, the latest renders from the LG G6. It seems to have a nice glossy backside but will also feature Metal. The phone itself is pretty known by now with its unusal resolution of 1440 x 2880 pixels, its huge 5.7″ FullVision Display and the fact that it is the first major flagship device from LG that will feature dust and water resistance.

The fact that these pictures come from Evan Blass show that it could be the official press material. Those are not high quality images, and you can see that they obviously have been cropped out of some other press or marketing material. Again we’re really looking forward to this years MWC to finally see it in its real full glory.

Well the amonts of leaked renders and photos of the LG G6 won’t stop. This time it’s compared to last year’s G5.

In the picture above we see the two Devices right next to each other and the differences in screen size are stunning compared to the whole sizes. The G6 with its 5.7″ screen looks about the size of its brother with only 5.3″ . This provides you with more screen in the same form factor. In the image we also see that LG descided to go with rounded cornors in terms of their new design idea. The LG G6 won’t have the modular design that the G5 had and will come as a dust and waterproof device.

The Phone looks pretty good to me and I am anticipating the official announcement at MWC 2017.

MWC 2016 is getting closer and closer, and we’re getting more leaked picturs of the LG G6 and its always-on Display.

Another day, another leak. This time we’ll get another 2 images of the LG G6. The first one shows the backside that this time appears less glossy and more in a brushed-metal kinda style. So it’s safe to assume we won’tget a glas backpan, or at least another option. The rest of this image is nothing really new, we see the double camera on the back, above the fingerprint sensor. What is new is seen on the next picture.

This time we see that beauty of a phone from the front and we notice first that the corners of the display are indeed rounded and we get a real good look at the bezels. It’s notable that the top one seems to be thinner than the bottom bezel and the sides are very thin. also i don’t see a button on the right hand side, so it’s pretty clear that the back-sensor is also the power button, which I personally really like. The last notable thing is on the software side. We can see that there will be an always-on display, just like we had on the LG G5.

Well with every leak i’m getting more and more excited about the LG G&, how about you ?

A new Rumor has emerged that Huawei will bring an upgraded Honor 8 to Barcelona, called the Honor 8 Pro.

A new rumor from russia claimes that the chinese Honor V9 will be rebranded for western markets as the Honor 8 Pro, packing a nice set of flagship worthy specs for, what we assume, an affordable price, siince that has been one of Honor’s things. Well lets talk a bit about the specs of the Device. If the rumors are true the Honor 8 Pro will feature a large 5.7″ QHD display, Kirin 960 processor, 4GB RAM (6GB in other markets), 3,900mAh battery, SD card support, dual rear-facing cameras, fingerprint reader, plus EMUI 5.0 on top of Android 7.0. I personally haven’t had the chance to play around with EMUI 5.0 or Android 7 yet , but from what i read here this could be quite a catch.

So what do you guys think about Honor and Huawei? I personally think the phones that i saw so far ( at IFA and the Customer Service Center) look pretty decent, so consider me exited for the press conference later this month.

While we’re all waiting for MWC and the LG G6, the company is constantly teasing us with new details of the flagship.

So the LG G6 is a pretty much anticipated phone and might be one of my personal highlights this year. Now LG has given us a little teaser video to show off the new UX and the phones screen. The Video itself is rather short and doesn’t really show much except for a new „square“ feature shich allows you to view fotos and other things side by side in squares. So without much words, here is the Video , but since it’s moving really fast I’ll put a slideshow of the important bits after.
