After nearly 2 years of omission, now Nokia wants to resurrect Microsoft Lumia McLaren, which was the most awaited smartphone….

Lumia McLaren: comes to life again

Microsoft Lumia McLaren was the next flagship after Lumia 1020 that Microsoft and Nokia wanted to work on. It was supposed to be the great success with innovative features including 50MP PureView camera. What a pity! This Lumia smartphone never showed its “face”, even though there were so many leaked photos, developers and testers. It has become the legend of Windows Phone till now.

Fortunately, lately Windows Central brought out a near-finished Lumia McLaren unit. Moreover, a Chinese site recently posted many photos of McLaren. Among such photos is a metal unibody with curved edges, which make Nokia smartphone design stunning and dazzling. The Nokia smartphone comes with a 5.5-inch full HD screen with LCD capacity, which deliver premium feeling.

Besides that Lumia McLaren specs also include a Snapdragon 800 CPU clocked at 2.3Ghz, 2GB of RAM. People love Lumia phones not because of their spec sheets, they are famous for combination of Nokia’s quality and Microsoft-developed hardware and software solutions. Lumia McLaren was intended to be ‘Lumia 1030’ and was probably have an upgraded 50MP camera. Some of the videos also showed off the phone 3D Touch feature which allows users to interact with the display without actually making contact with it.

Lumia McLaren: the truth is…..

Such camera information was the past. Now, the “today” Lumia McLaren was checked and confirmed to have a 20MP Pureview snapper, but it will never hold a 50MP one like what we hoped. There’s also the intriguing hover touch functionality. As your finger hovers over the screen, such feature will appear with shortcuts and data. The functionality is enabled by various sensors in the display and sides of the McLaren. Lumia McLaren release date and Lumia McLaren price are still kept in secret. Hopefully, we could meet it soon. Stay tuned.

Last month, we had a case that allowed Android to be a part of iOS. Now, a MESUIT case made by Chinese mobile OS virtualization company Haimawan can do it better. 

MESUIT case: a new age of Android iPhone

MESUIT case is not the first time that some one tries to put this couple – Android and iOS together. Tendigi developer Nick Lee built a case that with an enclosed circuit board running an adapted version of Android Marshmallow. And this time, the MESUIT case is a commercial version produced by Haimawan company using a custom-built app, users can boot the iPhone in Android. The creative idea is possible thanks to Apple’s international popularity, they do not change their design much as well.

The MESUIT case provides Android-based operating system, called Mesuit OS 1.0. It is able to run on iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s and 6s Plus devices. More interesting, it also supports an external battery and storage expansion via its own SIM card slot. MESUIT case has different models for each kind of iPhone: for iPhone 6 and 6s are the same with an additional 1700 mAh of battery, while the bigger version for Plus accompanies with 2500 mAh. It also comes in three storage capacities – with 32GB, 64GB and 128GB of memory.

It is really easy to connect MESUIT case to your iPhone via the Lightning port and runs Android as an app within iOS. The case also contains a second Nano SIM slot that allows ease of use with the Android OS. However the MESUIT seems not to be better than its predecessor from Nick Lee because of lack of some features including SD card, HDMI, or full-size USB ports.

MESUIT case: in case you are interested……

The MESUIT case is available for sale in China with around $150 for iPhone 6 / 6S model. For the larger iPhone 6 Plus / 6S Plus, MESUIT case prices at $165. Unfortunately, the company has not announced if the MESUIT will be available outside of China.

Lately, we’ve just brought you things we hate about Android and Windows Phone. So, this time, we’ll give you things we hate about iOS smartphones. Let’s have a look!

It’s hard to adjust brightness and volume sliders

The first is the brightness and volume sliders. On Android phones, all you have to do is simply tap at the place you want it to be. And the indicator will be there. On the other hand, on iOS smartphones, it’s harder to adjust the brightness and volume. You have to drag the little indicator to the right place. And it’s sometimes very annoyed. Secondly, you can’t hide apps from the Home screen. And this will make your screen just like a big app drawer. However, this will be fixed in iOS 10.

Thirdly, it’s hard to access the Settings. Quick Settings on Android devices  is nearly similar to Control Center on iOS smartphones. You can go there and adjust things. However, on Android, you can access Settings easier in many ways. For example, when you want to connect to the other network, you can extend Quick Settings into the small menus. Or you can go the whole Setting menu in just one tap. iOS, you have to get back to Home screen > Setting app and then go the part you want to adjust.

The four reason is app refund. If you’re still in the refund window, it will be so easy to get your app refund. Just go back to Play Store where you got your app, and press the “Refund” button. With iOS smartphones, you will have to do more than that. You have to go to a separate web and fill out a report. And now you can get your money back.

You can’t clear data in just one step on iOS smartphones

Last but not least, you just can’t remove data simply. Sometimes when your apps don’t work well or even corrupt/crash, you just need to uninstall that app on Android devices. Or you can go to App info and clear all its data and start it all over again. However, it’s not that easy on iOS smartphones. You never can uninstall an app. You just simply remove the main file and some app data. The other data will still be on your phone. If you want to erase it completely, you have to delete iCloud backups, and factory reset your phone.

A perfect selfie smartphone is coming to India – Xperia XA Ultra. This Sony handset will appear in India with its most highlight feature- a 16MP OIS front-facing camera.

Xperia XA Ultra: perfect selfie phone is coming to India

The Japanese company-Sony- is bringing its XA Ultra to a new market. This time, it is India. The company has just shared a photo on Twitter.

Sony Ultra is powered by a 64-bit 2GHz octa-core MT6755 Helio P10 processor. To ensure the performance, the company added a 3GB RAM paired with a 16GB of inbuilt storage. If you think this memory is not enough, you can expand it up to 200GB through a microSD card.

Announced in May, the phone shows up with a 6-inch screen with the resolution of 1080 x 1920 px. It is backed up with a 2700mAh battery life. With this capacity, you can have 12 hours talking time, 708 hours of standby time on 3G network. And XA Ultra runs on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow out of the box.

Xperia XA Ultra price and release date
