This is not the first smartphone that the company is launching in Dubai, its current flagships, the Phantom 6 and Phantom 6 Plus were also launched in Dubai last year. Tecno isn’t revealing much about the phone, the company is being cryptic with statements such as, “with its glass like texture and the shine only true of a diamond, TECNO’s new Phantom is a thing of pure beauty.” This doesn’t…

WhatsApp is about to get even better with the inclusion of a feature many users have been asking for. The company has enabled a feature that will make it possible for users to delete WhatsApp messages that they have sent to individuals or groups. This is not the delete option we currently have on WhatsApp that only deletes the messages on your end. With this new one, you can actually delete the messages for everyone. If you have ever sent a message to the wrong group/person, then this makes sense to you as previously you could delete the message but…

BlackBerry has unveiled its latest smartphone and this is its first water-resistant device with an IP67 rating. This new smartphone goes by the name the BlackBerry Motion that expands the company’s Android phone lineup. The BlackBerry Motion comes with a 5.5 inch display with a Full HD resolution.
