Samsung has started 2016 in a very promising way. However, the Note 7 incident has turned everything upside down for the Korean giant. Fans of the Note 7 was disappointed with the mass recall, but now Samsung has confirmed that they will sell refurbished Note 7 again!

Refurbished Note 7 will be back on sale!

Previously, there have been reports of Samsung seemingly going to sell refurbished Note 7 again, after the mass recall from the exploding incidents. That piece of news has now been confirmed by the Korean company itself. Samsung has recently put out a press release, saying that the company is now focusing on “recycling” the piles of returned Note 7 units that is in the company’s possession, following last year’s mass recall.

According to Samsung, the first step to do that will be refurbishing units, or renting them (whatever that may mean). In the second step, the company plans to disassemble and salvage usable components from the phones, for reusability purposes. In the final step, if nothing works out, the company will dispose of the unusable units and components with environmental friendly methods. That is the gist of a long and meticulous plan from Samsung.

About the sale of the refurbished Note 7, the company has not given the public any details on when, how, and where will the distribution be. Samsung only hinted that it is working with regulatory bodies as well as carriers to reach a conclusion. Local demand will also be one of the considerations. The time, as well as markets to release the refurbished units, will be determined accordingly. There have been speculations that these refurbished Note 7 will be sold in emerging markets such as India and Vietnam. There may be some changes as well, such as smaller battery, and even a name change!

Refurbished Note 7: Can it save Note 7’s reputation?

Regardless of what happened, the Note 7 was still a flagship of high quality when it was introduced. Hopefully with the refurbished Note 7, Samsung can salvage its reputation, along with the help of the coming Galaxy S8. Are you willing to buy a refurbished Note 7?

It’s the patent war all over again. But it involves more than two giant tech companies now. This time, Nokia seek help from Samsung to fight against Apple in court.

Nokia seek help from Samsung to fight Apple in court

Nokia has sued Apple in Germany and the US for infringement of a number of its patents. Apple has already been a Nokia Patents licensee since 2011. But this patent licensing agreement ended on December 31 2016. Under terms of this agreement, Apple paid one time huge sum and was committed to pay ongoing royalties to Nokia. However, Apple has declined to continue paying. Since Apple Products still infringe Nokia patents, Nokia has decided to take Apple to court.

Now, Nokia seek help from Samsung to fight against Apple. Here is the Nokia’s formal request to the Court. “Petitioner Nokia Technologies Oy (“Nokia”), the Complainant in Certain Electronic Devices, Including Mobile Phones, Tablet Computers, and Components Thereof, Inv. No. 337- TA-1038 (“the Investigation”) before the U.S. International Trade Commission (“ITC”), hereby moves the Court to issue, under its seal and signature, the attached Letter of Request to the Central Authority of the Republic of Korea. The Letter seeks documents and deposition testimony from Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., based in the Republic of Korea. The evidence sought by Nokia is highly relevant to the Investigation and unobtainable by other means…

For these reasons, as explained in more detail in the accompanying memorandum, Nokia respectfully requests that the Court assign a Judge to this matter and issue the attached Letter of Request as soon as the Court deems appropriate.”

Nokia seek help from Samsung: Will Samsung reply?

Apple and Samsung have been fighting one another forever. They have filled many IPR infringement cases against each other. This should be a good opportunity for Samsung to make some damage to the US tech giant. But only time can tell what will happen next.

Motorola is working on the new Moto X which would be released this year. Now, let’s take a look at all the information we’ve got so far and see what this device can offer.

Moto X (2017): SND 625, Dual rear cameras

At MWC 2017, Motorola officially announced the Moto G5 Plus. However, the company is still working on a different device to release this year. This device is expected to be called Moto X (2017). Today we’ve got our hands on the latest leaked images of this new smartphone. According to the source the device in picture is the real X (2017) from Motorola. The 2017 edition comes with a full metal body, a front-mounted fingerprint scanner, a front-facing LED flash, and a dual rear camera setup. The overall design is very similar to what we’ve seen on the Moto G5 duo.

The Moto X (2017) is said to boast a 5.5″ touchscreen with Full HD resolution. The phone is powered by Qualcomm’s mid-range Snapdragon 625 chipset that’s also inside the Moto Z Play. It comes with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage at first with other memory versions may follow shortly after. Apart from the dual camera setup on the back, Moto X (2017) specs are almost identical with the Moto Z Play specs.

Other features include a non-removable battery of unknown capacity and fast battery charging technology. The phone also supports expandable storage up to 256GB. Luckily enough, it still keeps the 3.5mm audio jack. The phone will run on the latest Android 7.0 version out of the box.

Moto X (2017): price and availability

A release time wasn’t leaked with the images. But for the Moto X (2017) price tag, this device will likely be around the Z Play price tag. However, the X (2017) has dual back cameras while the Z Play does not. Instead, the X (2017) lacks the modular design of the Z Play.

A teaser image of a bezel-less phone was just shared on Andy Rubin’s Tweeter yesterday. We have put everything we heard about it here…

Andy Rubin bezel-less phone: specs and design?

Let’s date back to January to see if the event is relevant. At that time, Andy Rubin was reported to be working on a high-end device. Yesterday, he shared a teaser image of a bezel-less phone on his Tweeter. This is very likely the first step of the announcement of a big Android phone. Despite only a corner revealed, the smartphone appears to be beautifully thin and hand-fit. However, since it is the top corner, we don’t know if home button would be removed or not.

Andy Rubin is now the co-founder of Android, founder and CEO of the tech startup incubator Playground Global. He was really excited about the shaping of this mysterious device and eager to bring it to the market soon. What can we see more from the Android phone image? It comes with thin bezels, rounded screen, icons for cellular connectivity, battery, and clock. The new phone is rumored to have “the ability to gain new hardware features over time”.  Charging the battery and expanding the phone’s functionality could be done through a proprietary magnetic connector. A pressure-sensitive touchscreen is highly expected too.

From all we can see, the new Android device looks very much like Xiaomi Mi Mix – a gorgeous player in the edgeless phone battle. Sadly, the Xiaomi phone is only available in China. We are waiting for more details about the specs, design, features, camera and release date from Andy Rubin. These are to be shared by Andy or anyone working with him on this bezel-less smartphone soon.
