Want even less smartphone edge? Nubia Z9 omits visual border

After Samsung's first dabbling with a (single) curved-edge smartphone screen, I'm sure most of us could have predicted the eventuality of a visually-borderless screen. There are television screens with zero-to-no border, so why not a smartphone? And while the Nubia Z9 isn't the first, it certainly packs the goods for strong competition.

This high-end Android…

Galaxy S6 Active shows up on Samsung's website, tiny 2,550 mAh cell in tow

Unlike last year, when the "Active" version of Samsung's then flagship device barely improved upon a highly flawed set of specifications, Galaxy S6's rugged sibling was rumored to bring a series of paramount enhancements to the already impressive table.

A few downgrades as well, required to keep the price relatively low, but if the GS6 Active is indeed a…

Huawei TalkBand B2 wearable now available in the US starting at $180

A rudimentary activity tracker produced by a Chinese brand that still doesn't inspire much trust in the West priced north of the full-blown Motorola Moto 360 smartwatch? Huawei must have gone mad!

Ah, but there's nothing "rudimentary" about the TalkBand B2 once you get to know the "hybrid smart band." Well, sure, it's only endowed with 96 KB (!) RAM and a tiny 16…

All Aboard Florida bringing high-tech transportation to The Sunshine State

Florida residents will soon be able to travel from one part of the state to another – city to city – quickly and efficiently without the need to drive. What are we talking about?

All Aboard Florida is developing a 235-mile intercity passenger rail system that will connect Orlando to Miami. The railway will run from Miami to Orlando, making additional stops in Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach.

The railway will not only offer a faster, more efficient way to travel between two of the most highly populated areas of the state, but will also introduce more than 10,000 local jobs and generate an estimated $653 million in federal, state and local tax revenues.

Once the railway is up and running, Downtown Miami and Orlando will could change considerably after becoming central travel hubs. If you'd like to see what the changes might…

Huawei brings P8 Lite to the US instead of standard or Max variants

On a gradual but steady rise in the Asian and European mobile landscape, Huawei remains a second-tier American smartphone player. No reason to get offended, as the Chinese device manufacturer acknowledges its low place on the totem pole, doing nothing to change the status quo.

If they'd want to be taken seriously, the 5.2/6.8-inch aluminum P8/P8 Max duo would already be on US store shelves, with fancy billboards promoting the 3 GB RAM flagship Androids…

Microsoft finally starts selling unlocked Lumia 535 stateside

It's hard to venture a guess as to what might have made Redmond wait almost eight months between Lumia 535's formal announcement and its long overdue US launch, but all's well that ends well… we guess.

Of course, eight months is like a good decade in smartphone years nowadays, so the least Microsoft could have done was price the 535 in accordance with mid-2015…

Kickstarter Project Spotlight: HidrateMe smart water bottle

747acf955a4e871641491c1fa68d51ff_original I'm a big hypocrite when it comes to water consumption. I'm the first to tell you that your headaches, fatigue, and body aches can be resolved by increasing water intake, but if you were to ask me how many ounces of water I consume a day, it's pretty shameful. I can say with certainty that I drink more coffee than water, and I know for a fact that I could majorly benefit…

Say hello to the second-gen HP Pavilion x2 10 with Intel Cherry Trail inside

Impressed by the non-Pro 10-inch Microsoft Surface 3 but still feel it's a little on the expensive side of things, at $499 and up? HP might be cooking up a budget alternative as we speak, which ironically was flaunted by the Surface family's very manufacturer at the Computex expo in Taiwan.

Of course, it's not the first time we've seen Redmond hyping up a…

Asus offers choice of Chrome OS or Windows with new mini-PC quartet

Perhaps more than ever, Asus stormed to Computex this year to prove its very diverse product roster can keep up with essentially all market trends known to mobile and PC consumers. As such, a slew of tiny desktops were showcased alongside the eye-catching ZenWatch 2 and ZenFone Selfie in Taipei, aiming to consolidate the fall of traditional computer towers.
