There's a new top Sony dog in town and its name is the Xperia XZ1. So, it's official: Sony is persisting with its, let's say, questionable naming convention. To be fair, we do see the consistency in it all, but it is still a rather silly title. Plus, we do have to complain about some aspect of the XZ1, since, frankly, after spending a bit of time with it, our initial impressions are really positive.

If you want to pre-order a Samsung Galaxy Note8 in the US, but want to pay as little as possible for it (and you haven't owned one of those ill-fated Note7 units last year), then Sprint has a very good deal for you. If you use the carrier's Flex Lease scheme and switch to Sprint or add a line you will only pay $20 per month for the phone (after $20 bill credits that start within two invoices). This isn't an installment plan, keep in mind, it's a lease. You can keep paying $20 per month for 18 months, but after that you need to decide what to do: make the device yours - which requires...

This has been a staple ever since the first iPhone launched ten years ago, but according to a new report the iPhone 8 will not have any semblance of such a button - not even a software-rendered one.

When that info came out, the rumored price point for the new phablet was INR 74,900 ($1,170 or 984 at the current exchange rates). However, a new rumor today says the official pricing of the Note8 in the subcontinent will actually be INR 69,900 (that's about $1,092 or 918).

GSMArena.com - Latest articles http://ift.tt/2vEWIadNew Gear IconX earbuds are more comfortable, can launch Bixby
Samsung launched its Gear IconX activity tracking wireless earbuds last year. Samsung claimed that these cord-free lightweight earbuds provide a perfect fit with three different sizes of eartips and wingtips. We mentioned in our Gear IconX review that we love how they fit and feel in the ears, even though they weren’t fully ready for prime time.
Samsung today announced its new Gear IconX cord-free earbuds. Not much has changed. The design has been slightly updated to make the earbuds more ergonomic and lightweight. Samsung says that they’re more secure and comfortable to use.
The new Gear IconX measures 18.9 x 21.8 x 22.8 mm and weigh just 8 grams per earbud. There’s 4GB of internal storage. They connect via Bluetooth v4.2. The 82mAh battery promises a talk time of up to 4 hours and music playback time of up to 7 hours, quite a lot higher than the original IconX.
The bundled charging case has a 340mAh battery and it provides one extra charge on the go. The Gear IconX is compatible with any Android device running version 4.4 and up.
Like its predecessor, the new Gear IconX has an accelerometer and a heart-rate monitor for activity tracking. The data is synced with Samsung’s S Health platform. It’s capable of tracking distance, speed, duration, heart rate, and calories burned.
The Gear IconX turns on automatically when it’s placed in the ears. Users can control the music via the built-in capacitive touch controls. There’s also a Voice Guide feature on the Gear IconX which provides instant voice feedback on workout progress.
Unsurprisingly, they are also capable of launching Bixby when paired with a supported device like the Galaxy S8, Galaxy S8+ and Galaxy Note 8. Samsung is going to start selling the new Gear IconX soon in black, gray and pink colors.
The new Gear IconX will cost 229.99 euro and will be released by November this year.

It has been consistently rumored over the past couple of months that Samsung will launch a new fitness tracking band soon. The company actually published the official product page of the Gear Fit2 Pro ahead of schedule last week. The product page revealed all of the details about this device before it was eventually taken down.
Samsung officially launched the Gear Fit2 Pro fitness band at its IFA 2017 press conference today. It’s an upgraded version of the Gear Fit 2 from last year with new smart features.
The Gear Fit2 Pro measures 51mm x 25mm and weighs just 34 grams. It has a 1.5-inch AMOLED 216×432 pixel resolution touchscreen display. There’s a dual-core 1.0GHz processor under the hood with 512MB of RAM and 4GB of storage. It’s built to the MID-STD-810G durability standard and has a 200mAh battery.
Swim tracking is the Gear Fit2 Pro’s biggest new feature. It’s water resistant up to 50 meters and provides swim tracking features courtesy of Speedo’s new app.
The Gear Fit2 Pro is also capable of automatically detecting activities like cycling, running, walking as well as dynamic activities like basketball and dancing.
The new wearable device supports local music playback. Users can access Spotify on the wearable device and even use its Offline mode to listen to their favorite tracks offline even when it’s not paired to their smartphone.
Connectivity options include Bluetooth v4.2, Wi-Fi b/g/n and GPS/GLONASS. It’s compatible with Android devices running Android 4.3 and up as well as select iPhones running iOS 9.0 and up.
It comes with a new secure and ergonomic band which is light weight and more comfortable to use. The Gear Fit2 Pro will be available in Black and Red colors.
The Gear Fit2 Pro is going to cost 229.99 euro. It will be released in Europe on September 9.

Samsung says that the Gear Sport is an ideal companion for swimmers. It’s certified for 5 ATM water resistance which means it can be submerged in up to 50 meters of water. Speedo’s new swimming training app called Speedo On is onboard to enable users to track key swim metrics such as lap time, lap count, stroke type and more.
Samsung has also improved the heart rate monitoring functionality to provide real-time readings. The Gear Sport has automatic activity detection built-in. It can automatically recognize and log activities like running, walking, cycling and more. It even enables users to customize their own wellness plan with tailored goals and alerts.
Core Gear features, such as the ability to control Samsung IoT devices, act as a remote control for a PowerPoint presentation or the Gear VR, and Samsung Pay are present as well.
Additional features include Bluetooth v4.2, Wi-Fi b/g/n, NFC, GPS, wireless charging and Gorilla Glass 3 protection for the display. The Gear Sport is powered by a 300mAh battery. It’s compatible with Android devices and select iPhone models running iOS 9.0 and up.
The Gear Sport will be available with a variety of colorful and easily changeable 20mm straps in Blue and Black colors. It’s going to cost 349.99 euro and will be released in Europe on October 27.
