In terms of design, the device sports a 6.39-inch Infinity-O display with a Full HD+ screen resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels, and a 6.7mm cutout on the top-left of the screen that houses a selfie camera....
And honestly? We are a little confused. Do not get us wrong here. The Galaxy M40 ticks a lot of boxes in the right way. It is the first in the Galaxy M series to come with a Qualcomm processor (its predecessors used Samsung’s very own Exynos chips) and brings some serious flagship-level specs to the mid-segment table – the coolest of which is perhaps the Screen Sound technology, which transforms the display into a speakerphone calls, doing away with the earpiece altogether....

Converging Towards a Common Goal From startups like Pebble to industry leaders like Apple, every step towards building a wearable gadget now involves a keen focus on fitness. Up until now this year, companies have released thicker smartwatches when compared to previous generations to make room for crucial components such as dedicated GPS chips. For instance, the new Apple Watch is about 0.9mm thicker and 4.2 grams heavier and these type of stepbacks never happen unless they’re the only option to justify a product’s proposition....
Just like Samsung, it seems that Sony is experimenting with as many screen sizes as possible. As Brazilian website Techudo informs us, it seems that the Honami might be released on the market with a 5.4 inch size, which should place it somewhere between being called a big smartphone or a phablet. This size makes the alleged Xperia i1 bigger than the Sony Xperia Z but smaller than the Zperia Z Ultra....
As you can already relate from the name, the Sony Xperia X Compact is the smaller of the two siblings and is the latest addition to the company’s Xperia X lineup. To be precise, the Sony Xperia X Compact is a trimmed down version of the flagship Xperia X launched earlier this year. Rather it sports a markedly smaller 4.6 inch display with a resolution of just 1280x720p. While this might appear puny in today’s world but this display size has been a part and parcel of the Xperia Compact lineup for quite some time now, ever since those Xperia Z days....

So it might come as a bit of a surprise to some people that the one Xiaomi phone I am really looking forward to is none of these. And no, it is not the so-called Mi A2 either, the next in the Android One portfolio from the company. The phone I am actually looking forward to from Xiaomi this year is the Mi Max 3. Yep, you heard that right – the Mi Max 3 (not the Mi Mix 3), the next in Xiaomi’s oversized phone/phablet series, unless they decide to call it the Mi Max 2S....

Google also baked a smart way to invite others by Instant Apps, read more about it here....

More importantly, revenue from the category where Apple makes most of its money — the iPhone fell by a staggering 15 percent....
WeChat has provided tools (mostly APIs) to other companies to set up their own accounts in the chat app. These accounts can then be used for promoting products/services, interacting with customers, etc. The end result has been that WeChat is now an integral part of consumers’ mobile lifestyle in China and a big contributor to its parent company Tencent’s profits.
