As Brad Molen of Engadget puts it, RE looks like a tiny periscope or a PVC pipe or an Asthma inhaler. The first thing one would assume is that HTC RE is competing with GoPro, but according to HTC, it’s not. Interestingly, it’s competing with your smartphone cameras. And HTC has a heck of a job convincing people to pay $199 for a gadget like this. RE comes with a 16-MegaPixel camera with a very wide-angle (146 degree) f2....

Lenovo had launched the A7000 earlier this year priced at Rs 8,999 and the Plus seems to come with some worthwhile upgrades in a bid to maintain the relevance of the device in the current market. The first and the foremost change comes in the form of a FHD 5.5-inch display as opposed to the 720p display on the A7000. The A7000 Plus will draw its power from an octa-core MediaTek (MT6752) SoC clocked at 1....
This is what Shakil Bakat, head of global product development at Moto had to say, he said that the company doesn’t “see enough pull in the market to put [a new smartwatch] out at this time,” though it may revisit the market in the future should technologies for the wrist improve. “Wearables do not have broad enough appeal for us to continue to build on it year after year.” This inadvertently means that the smartwatch will no more figure out in the Moto’s roadmap....
The Digitizer pad can be used for designers to create the graphics and one could also scribble away their notes on it. The best part of the digitizer pad is that it lights up to become a fully lit keyboard (touch) that can be used to a normal keyboard. We wonder how it is to switch from a usual keyboard to the Halo keyboard as key travel has been one of the important aspects of keyboard feedback....
After launching the high-end bezel-less LG G6 back in February, LG has now introduced the LG Q6, which has definitely taken inspiration from its big brother in terms of looks. The smartphone comes with an almost bezel-less front, but can it sail through the mid-segment storm on the looks boat alone or does it have other tricks up its sleeve? Almost bezel-less looker Let us just get one thing out of the way: the LG Q6 is one of the most gorgeous looking smartphones in the mid-segment....

The discount seems to be available only on the official Skullcandy India website, for other e-retail portals are featuring the headphones at a slightly higher price (generally north of Rs 15,000). Rather expensive at launch… Now, at their launch price of Rs 27,999 in late 2019, the Crusher ANC had struck as being definitely on the higher side. This was because although they did deliver booming bass and decent ANC, they were getting into the range of the likes of the Jabra Elite 85h, the Bose 700, and the Sony WH 1000 XM3 (the XM4 had not been released then, but we would consider them to be candidates as well), that did not deliver the same sort of thumping bass but generally came with way better sound clarity, design, and other features....

Both Lava and Karbonn are known for their budget Android smartphones and feature phones in India. Waiver of license fee from Microsoft is kind of surprising, as the company reportedly charges $20 to $30 for each Lumia device sold by Nokia, which went Windows Phone exclusive in 2011, and acquired by Microsoft last year (pending regulatory approval)....
Furthermore, handsets from last year such as the Moto X family and Moto G third generation will have to wait a little longer as the spokesperson states they don’t want to hinder users’ experience by ruining the performance or battery life that happened with Marshmallow. For any future updates, you can keep an eye on Motorola’s updates page.

That quote from Microsoft co-founder and former CEO Bill Gates at the New York Times DealBook Conference has been making the rounds of tech circles for a few days now. And of course, it has inspired a lot of debate. Opinion was divided over whether Gates was right or wrong – would we all really have been using Windows Mobile if the company (and he himself) had not been distracted by the antitrust trial that Microsoft was embroiled in, or was he overestimating the power of his brand’s mobile OS in a classic case of wishful “it might have been” thinking?...

How well does the OnePlus 8 Pro shape up there?...
