A listing on Android Enterprise Directory has revealed what we should be expecting from the incoming Lenovo K10. The specifications sure sound mediocre even for a budget smartphone in 2019. But, we expect the Chinese company to price the handset competitively so that it finds its place in the market. According to the listing, the specs of Lenovo K10 include a 6.1-inch display, 2GB RAM, and 32GB storage. The device will likely come with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor just like its older brother, K10 Note. The listing also reveals that it will run Android 9.0 Pie out of the box.…

Sony Xperia as a brand may not be working out very well for the Japanese tech giant in terms of sales and profits right now, but that didn’t stop Sony from releasing a killer flagship phone in the form of Xperia 5 at a relatively reasonable price point.

T3 has given away its ‘Best Phone’ title to the Xperia 5 for its gorgeous 6.1-inch 21:9 OLED…

Sony’s Q1 smartphone of this year, like always, has failed to impress both critics as well as Android enthusiasts except obviously their hardcore fans that almost always never forget to bash me in the comments. And this time around, even their biggest fans are disappointed as one of the best features of the Sony Xperia 1 is about to get outdated in no time. But let’s leave that aside (can we?) as Sony has something interesting for us this time around in the form of a pocket cooler dubbed ‘Reon Pocket’ that has completed its crowdfunding campaign successfully on the…

It appears that Google’s answer to Amazon Echo Show, the Google Nest Hub Max, now has a release date. Launched back at the I/O in May, the search engine giant has mostly been mum about the smart display ever since. But, folks over at Droid-Life was lucky enough to take a screenshot of a Google support page showcasing the Nest Hub Max to go on sale starting from September 9 in Australia, UK, and the US. It’s worth noting that Google has since changed the product description of the device and now it just says “Coming Soon”. It’s not clear…

Steam is miles ahead of its competitors from the likes of Origin and Epic in terms of games availability, functionality, support, community, and more, and there is no denying that fact. But, one department the giant game distribution platform by Valve could use some work is the user interface. The UI is unapologetically outdated, especially considering that not much of it has changed in the past 15 years. But, that’s about to change pretty soon, at least according to a source familiar with the matter. We’ve been hearing about a potential redesign for a long time now thanks to a…
