LG G7 One and LG G7 Fit announced, the former with Snapdragon 835

By
IFA is starting in Berlin and companies have already begun announcing the devices they will unveil at the conference. LG introduced today the LG G7 One and the LG G7 Fit as an addition to its smartphone portfolio.
The first phone arrives with Snapdragon 835 chipset as part of the Android One program, while the latter has an older processor and likely a more affordable price tag.

LG G7 One

The LG G7 One is the first phone from the G-series with the Snapdragon 835 since LG G6arrived with the older Snapdragon 821 after Samsung hoarding all the 835s, while the LG G7 ThinQ flagship came with Snapdragon 845.
The new phone has a 6.1” QHD+ FullVision panel. It comes with a notch on top and an extremely high 19.5:9 ratio. The cutout hides the proximity sensor, LED notification light, selfie camera, and the earpiece. There is a slight chin below, and the fingerprint scanner can be found on the back.

There is only one memory combination - 4 GB RAM and 32 GB storage with microSD port for up to 512 GB more. Since the phone is on the Android One program, it has stock Android Oreo 8.1 and should be getting Android Pie 9 soon enough.
There is one camera on the back with 16 MP sensor with f/1.6 aperture. The selfie shooter is 8 MP with f/1.9 lens and 80-degree field of view. It is not the widest of angles but is good enough to let more friends into your selfies.
The G7 One has a flagship processor (albeit a year old) and a top-notch screen, pun intended, but LG didn’t cut corners in the other aspects as well. There is Quad DAC, DTS:X, IP68 and MIL-STD 810G compatibility and Quick Charge 3.0 for the 3,000 mAh battery.

LG G7 Fit

The Korean manufacturer reported another quarterly loss in the mobile division, and the new G7 Fit is likely one of the "new competitive models" LG promised to unveil last month. The phone has a less impressive Snapdragon 821 chipset but it keeps the flagship screen seen in the ThinQ and the One variants, along with other premium features.
The G7 Fit has 4 GB RAM and 32 GB storage, just like the G7 One. There is another version, called LG G7 Fit+ at some markets, which has 64 GB storage, and both arrive with a microSD slot. The company says it can provide up to 2 TB more, but we all know this is just in theory; in practice, there isn’t a microSD card bigger than 512 GB currently on the market.

Quad DAC, water- and dust-proofing are in the G7 Fit as well and the battery is also 3,000 mAh. The phone is not on the Android One program, meaning it might switch from Android Oreo 8.1 to Android Pie a bit later than its One sibling.
All new phones share the physical dimensions of the well-known LG G7 ThinQ. We know that the LG G7 One will arrive in New Moroccan Blue and New Aurora Black, while the LG G7 Fit will be available in New Aurora Black and New Platinum Gray. What we don’t know is pricing and availability which will be unveiled later this week.

Apple releases new iOS 12 beta, putting a stop to infuriating update notification

By
A new iOS update is now available (for real) “A new iOS update is now available. Please update from the iOS 12 beta.” If you’ve been running the latest version of Apple’s beta software for OS 12, you’ve likely been pestered by this notification a whole lot over the last 24 hours. Dozens of times? Potentially hundreds? Yesterday, it started showing up every time an iOS device was unlocked — or even if you just pulled down the notification tray a little bit. Thankfully, just as we enter Labor Day weekend, Apple has shipped another iOS 12 update to restore sanity. If you open up your iPhone’s settings, iOS 12 public beta 10 (developer beta 12) is now available to download. Once you do, the obnoxious, constant alert — about an update that didn’t even exist — will go away. GuilhermeRamo managed to pinpoint what went wrong with the last iOS 12 beta. The build thought it was about to expire, thus setting off the string of notifications and mass frustration: This annoying hiccup...

@VC_11 Hacker runs WinPE with Windows 10 ARM image on a Lumia Windows Phone Earlier this week, Windows Phone Internals 2.3 became available for download , allowing any non-technical user with a Lumia handset root the device. The tool basically allows you to bypass the SecureBoot on all Lumia phones after successfully unlocking the bootloader. Windows Phone hacker Gustave M has now managed to run Windows PE with Windows 10 Build 17061 ARM32 image on a Lumia 830. With help of Windows Phone Internals, Lumia phones can boot Windows PE (WinPE) with Windows 10 ARM images. Microsoft recently teamed up with Qualcomm to work on ‘  Windows 10 ARM project', while initially, everyone thought it would replace Windows 10 Mobile operating system with a new interface similar to of Windows 10 desktop. Microsoft’s Joe Belfiore has however confirmed that the full version of Windows 10 ARM won’t be coming to the Windows Phones. “The Windows 10 on ARM effor...

Apple sold fewer iPhones but made more money thanks to the iPhone

By
Apple’s  first quarterly earnings reports for 2018  are in, and the  company has reported  that  it sold 77.3 million iPhones in Q1 2018  (which includes the holiday season). That number is down 1.24 percent year over year from last year (78.3 million). But despite the slump in sales, iPhone revenue increased overall year over year, up 11.69 percent from $54.38 billion to $61.58 billion. While predictions for the average sale price of iPhone units sold during the quarter ranged from $710 to $755, the actual ASP was $796 (compared to $694 in Q1 2017), which directly explains the increase of revenue despite the decrease in sales. That said, despite the record revenue, analysts were still expecting a slight increase of approximately 1.5 percent year over year for units shipped, not a decrease. My estimate for iPhone units was expecting a lot more iPhone 8 with an average pricing of $710. Actual ASP was $796. A LOT of iPhon...
