Noise Stealthily Readies Pre-Order Passes for Upcoming Smart Wearable

by

Our little birdies have been picking up some fairly consistent noise from the industry, and this time, it is around the next wearable from Noise. The latest scoop from our source is that the product would be released exclusively via pre-order. The pre-order pass would allow users to get early bird access along with other benefits. And if we are allowed to speculate, the pre-order pass model of release suggests a premium device that the company has the confidence to keep exclusive. If correct, this would mean that Noise has reached a certain maturity to march boldly into the premium wearable space with this innovation, shedding its image as an entry-level player.

Media chatters also hint that Noise could have crafted a powerful ring, probably a smart version of what Frodo took to Mount Doom, albeit with a titanium build. We also hear that the new device will bring about a “transformative shift in lifestyle”. Putting these chit-chats together, we visualise a smart wearable in the shape of a ring that can measure and assess your health and lifestyle parameters and do much more.

Our birds are still in the air, listening to tech chatters. We will bring you more updates as soon as we have them.

What these leaked iPhone 7 spy shots tell us about the new smartphone from Apple

by

As the days begin to countdown to the expected reveal of the iPhone 7 in September, we’re getting rumours and speculation popping up at a rate of knots – from the size of the device, to the style of camera, to the inclusion/exclusion of a headphone jack, it’s proof positive we’re all hungry for a new Apple smartphone in our lives.

We’ve also been getting plenty of leaked photos and 3D renders, and the latest one – from French tech site Nowhereelse.fr – seemingly confirms a number of these hardware features in one speculative swoop. For a start there’s the size – it’s clearly a 4.7-inch model, a change in size that falls in line with a number of other leaked schematics we’ve seen before.

The rear panel is a lot sleeker too, again as seen before in previous leaked media, suggesting Apple is taking a few leaves out of Samsung’s Galaxy S7 book with a noticeably smooth and uninterrupted design. Like many of the purported changes to the iPhone 7 design it’s a small transition, but one that could help Apple dog and bone feel a lot fresher.

While the design feels like a natural evolution of what Apple has been doing with the iPhone 6S, the camera does feel like a more pronounced change. The camera has a lip running around its edge, potentially dismissing earlier reports that the iPhone 7’s rear camera would sit flush within its tweaked design.

The pictured model appears to come in a gold finish – considering we’ve already reported that the iPhone 7 will likely come in a blue model as well, a gold version does seem plausible. The back is also surprisingly spartan with no words engraved on the back save the iconic Apple logo. You definitely get the sense that the iPhone 7’s design team has been subtely trying to hark back to its simpler origins.

While not pictured, we do know that the now annual ‘Plus’ version of the iPhone 7 could be a 5.5-inch model with a rather tasty Dual-Lens rear camera that will take the handset’s already impressive HD camera and make it even more of an attractive offering for the Instagram generation.

Upcoming LG G5 to have always on display

by

LG officially confirmed on their Facebook page that the G5 will feature an “always on” display. As of this moment, it’s unclear which display technology will be used for the screen. LG recently tested the waters by using a small secondary display in the recent V10. Similar technology had made its debut in the form of the Active display from Moto X back in 2013.

A unibody made entirely of metal and certain other rumours suggest the latest flagship is a departure from previous top-end phones from the LG stable.

A lot is shrouded in mystery at this point which LG will hopefully dispel at the upcoming MWC 2016.
