Though this might seem like an odd move for HTC, President Peter Chou said that “Virtual reality will become a mainstream experience for general consumers.” The virtual reality race is heating up with products in development from Oculus, Sony and Microsoft. Here’s our HTC Vive vs Samsung Gear VR Innovator Edition comparison. Design In terms of design, the updated Samsung Gear VR is 15 percent smaller than its predecessor – thanks to the smaller screen size of the Galaxy S6, which is used as the display (similar to Google Cardboard). This means...

The standard Camera app is rather basic in its Simple mode, with the usual Auto, HDR, Panorama, Beautify and Smile modes. You can also straighten images, remove moving items from view and take group photos in which you can pick the best image for each person in shot. Switch to expert mode and you lose these presets, but you’ll get more control over your image in terms of exposure, ISO metering and white balance. After you’ve taken a photo you...

The name might lead you to expect the Blade S6 to be a copy of the Samsung Galaxy S6, but it’s much more iPhone 6 in design. The clean white front with circular home button, rounded corners and curved screen edges is certainly reminiscent of Apple’s fl agship smartphone. Even the SIM and microSD slots are very iPhone-like, not that there’s much scope for diff erentiating there. And the MiFavor UI’s lack of an app tray is just Apple all over. For...

The device is powered by PC instead of a smartphone and uses a gyro sensor, accelerometer and a laser position sensor that allows the device to track head movements as precisely as one tenth of a degree. That, coupled with the...

The fi rst thing we noticed about the Huawei TalkBand B2 is that its design has been signifi cantly improved since the original TalkBand B1, both in terms of the way it looks and the practicality. There are currently three diff erent designs to choose from: a black version with a plastic strap, a silver version with a white plastic strap, and a gold version with a brown leather strap. We’d be happy to wear any of the three designs on a day-to-day...

The fi rm certainly could have, and probably should have, come up with a better name for the device but when it looks this good we don’t really care. Perhaps the Chinese tech company wants to compete directly with Apple by simply branding it with the name and the type of device it is. What we don’t know when it’s going to launch, however our prediction of the £300 mark to match the new LG Watch Urbane looks pretty good. MobileFun has announced the...
