Honor Band 4 arrives with colored display for 2000

After unveiling the Honor 8X and Honor 8X Max, the Huawei subsidiary also introduced a new edition of its fitness band called Honor Band 4. The new gadget comes with a Home button and a colored AMOLED panel. It is aiming to dethrone the Mi Band 3 from the affordable fitness band top position with its price tag of $30.

The Honor Band 4 has a 0.95” AMOLED screen with 2.5D curved glass on top of it. It has pedometer, sleep tracker, heart rate sensor and is water- and dust-resistant up to 5 ATM. It has Huawei TruSleep 2.0 feature that monitors the complete sleep cycle, including REM, and then offers personalized recommendations.

Another neat feature is TruSeen 2.0 that follows the heart rate all the time during activities like running, walking, cycling. The battery of the device is 100 mAh and Honor promises 14 days of usage time.

The company also introduced Running Edition of the Honor Band 4. It comes with POLED display, but unlike the regular version, this one is monochrome. It has slightly smaller battery - 77 mAh, but offers improved data like running detection like cadence, step length, ground contact and foot strike pattern.

The Honor Band 4 arrives in Black, Blue, and Pink and costs CNY199, which is no more than $29/€25. The Running Edition has Black, Blue, Red, Yellow, Green, and Pink color option and is just CNY99 or less than $15/€13. Both devices will be on sale in China on September 20, and hopefully will appear on the global scene as well.

WhatsApp's chief business officer Neeraj Arora quits

Neerja Arora , WhatsApp ’s chief business officer, is the latest Facebook executive to step down the facebook cluster of companies in the last few months. In a Facebook post , Arora said he is “going to be taking some time off to recharge and spend time with family,” and thanked WhatsApp co-founders Jan Koum and Brian Acton. Koum stepped down as WhatsApp CEO earlier this year over disagreements with Facebook executives over privacy and encryption. Acton had left WhatsApp a year ago, in September 2017, to start his own non-profit. However, a few months later, he urged people to #deletefacebook on his Twitter account. The co-founders’ departure reportedly boiled down to disagreements over the monetization options for WhatsApp which has been anti-ads since the beginning. It is time. #deletefacebook — Brian Acton (@brianacton) March 20, 2018 Arora had been with WhatsApp since 2011, when the company was just two years old. He was with the...

Musk's new pay deal could make him the world's richest man—if Tesla succeeds

It is the Elon Musk of corporate pay deals, a cocksure, all-or-nothing moonshot into history. Little wonder, then, that it is for none other than Elon Musk. Tesla Inc. granted the billionaire founder a $2.6 billion award, the largest-ever of its kind, underscoring the company's outsize ambitions and how intimately connected its future success is to Musk. If fully vested over a decade, stock options would net him as much as $55.8 billion. Along the way, nothing would be guaranteed -- zero salary or cash bonuses. The audacious award outlines a plan for Tesla to become one of the world's biggest companies, which would make Musk perhaps the richest man on the planet in the process, but without as detailed a road map to get there as was provided with his last award. This, too, is very Musk-like -- set big-picture, moonshot end goals, particulars be damned. "It's breathtaking both in size and in terms of performance required to earn it," Steven Hall...

Camera comparison: Huawei P30 Pro vs S10+, iPhone XS, Pixel 3, Mi 9, Mate 20 Pro

Huawei's been bringing us some of the most meaningful camera innovations in smartphones over the past few years, experimenting with monochrome modules, image stacking, and night mode, off the top of our heads. The Huawei P30 Pro is now official and it's got a new trick up its sleeve - a periscope telephoto camera. We've had the chances to review the P30 Pro and you can read all of our findings in the in-depth review here. But the novel camera tech prompted us to do a more in-depth comparison against the other big names on the market. While at it, we figured we shouldn't limit ourselves just to zoomed in shots, because let's face it <br /> - no other phone has a 5x zoom camera. Hence, this shootout. The lineup for this comparison includes the Samsung Galaxy S10+, which comes with an ultra wide camera, and it's wider than the P30 Pro's but lacks autofocus. As is very much the norm (which Huawei aims to break), the Galaxy's telephoto ...
