10 THINGS WE LEARNED ABOUT THE TOTALLY SWEET NEW SAMSUNG GALAXY S8 Could this be the iPhone killer you've been waiting for? Samsung On April 21st,  Samsung  will unleash their Galaxy S8 and S8+ on the world but we were able to count ourselves among the lucky few who pocketed the phone a week early. Using the Galaxy S8 as our primary phone, we put it through the ringer and were damn impressed with what Samsung has accomplished this time around. Here are 10 standout features of Samsung’s Galaxy S8, and why it’s setting a new standard for cell phones. 1. There's No Home Button The main difference and first thing you’ll notice about the S8 is that it’s without a physical home button. The S8 isn’t the first phone to do away with the home button but it is the best implementation of a software-based alternative that we’ve seen so far.

Alleged Moto E4 with 4,000mAh battery and 16GB storage clears FCC

“The Moto E4 is expected to be launched in the US soon as it gets cleared by FCC”

The first-gen Moto E budget smartphone was launched back in 2014. The 2nd-gen and 3rd-gen models of the phone were released in 2015 and 2016 respectively. The Moto E series has been quite successful for Lenovo in emerging markets like India. Now the company seems to be all set to launch the Moto E (2017) or Moto E4 soon.



Ahead of an official announcement, a new Moto smartphone carrying the model number XT1723 has been cleared by the US Federal Communication Commission (FCC). The phone is expected to be the Moto E4. The listing reveals a device with a beefy 4,000mAh battery.

The FCC listing also reveals that the alleged Moto E4 will feature 16GB of internal memory. This could be the base variant of the phone, and there will likely be a 32GB model on the offer as well. There’s no word when the brand is planning to launch the device at the moment. We expect the rumour mill to reveal more details about the phone in the coming weeks, so stay tuned

It's a perplexing decision if we consider it as a deliberate design choice, but reports ahead of the S8's launch, which now seem validated by the device itself, suggest that it was a last-minute alteration enforced by the slower-than-desired development of more ambitious technology. A March 13th  report out of Korea  lays it all out lucidly. Samsung, working in collaboration with Synaptics, had initially hoped to build the fingerprint sensing te...
