Yesterday, we told you that Google has plans to release Android Wear 2.0 on February 9. At the time, we did not have any information on which companies had plans to launch smartwatches powered by Android Wear 2.0. For those who were keen to know of any Android Wear 2.0 devices currently under production, you will be happy to know that Google and LG are working on two devices to be announced next month. This was revealed yesterday by Evan Blass (@evleaks) who is the same guy who pointed out that Google will be releasing Android Wear 2.0 in February.…

Five days ago, we told you that Google had plans to release Android Wear 2.0 next month (February). Back then, we did not have an exact date as to when this was going to happen but all we knew is that it will be during the first half of the month. If you have an Android Wear smartwatch, it may be time to revive it (if you had it hidden under some rock since Android Wear 1.0 isn’t the best OS out there). Android Wear 2.0 is coming out in the next three weeks, on February 9 to be exact.…

Vine was once one of the most promising platforms out there. The app is known for its six second videos and back then, videos and photos were taking over social media like never before.  Well, Vine isn’t turning out to what we expected, the app hasn’t been able to attract as many users as most prefer platforms such as Instagram and Snapchat for photo and video sharing. If you are a Vine fan, then you better say your goodbyes as the app is changing as from today. Earlier this month, the company tweeted that Vine app will be transformed to…

Late last year, Huawei unveiled its flagship phablet, the Huawei Mate 9. This phone came in two variants and both had 4GB of RAM, something we expected from a 2016 flagship.

The device has been spotted on various ecommerce stores and brings back the Mate 9 with even better specs including 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage space. We still don’t know the model number of this new device but the current models have version numbers MHA-L29 for the…

The phone also joins the P8 Lite that has been on the market for close to two years.

The search bar will be on the top of every page allowing you to search for what you want and then go back to snapping. For Snapchat, this is important as it means that users do not…

A few days ago, the Nokia 6 smartphone was released by HMD Global, the company that owns the exclusive Nokia brand licensing rights for mobile phones. Well, the Nokia 6 is not the only smartphone the company plans to unveil this year. The company is making a comeback and let’s just face it, it cannot penetrate the market with one device. It needs a couple more targeting different market segments just to get started. HMD Global knows this all too well and that is why the company is working on another phone that we will be seeing at Mobile World…

We have been waiting for Android Wear 2.0 for quite a while now and Google has disappointed us every time we thought the company was going to release the update. Some manufacturers are also waiting for this update before they can release their updated wearables. Since manufacturers are not willing to release wearables until Android Wear 2.0 is released, we are stuck with old wearables and most of the new ones that are released do not come with Android Wear. For the true Android fans, Android Wear 2.0 is coming soon. According to The Verge, Google plans to release this…
