Samsung Galaxy S6 Details, HTC One M9, and LG Watch Urbane - Android Weekly

2015-02-23
this episode of android weekly is brought to you by domain.com Oh things are heating up as the Mobile World Congress approaches because we not only have credible pics of the new HTC One but we have a teaser video directly from Samsung don't mind the I sheep gentleman behind me I bet he is not back I she is awesome don't worry I will rehabilitate him Samsung sure is turning up the hype machine a few days ago samsung released its first teaser video of the upcoming Galaxy s6 which was all about the handsets camera and now more recently the company just tweeted a second video this time it's all about speed now again we aren't treated to any sneak peeks and there aren't any features mentioned by name however it's almost inevitable that the samsung galaxy s6 will boast cutting-edge processor technology come its release samsung recently announced its revised more energy-efficient 14 nanometer x 107 octa which will be right on with the speed message in this video similarly if the reduced bloatware rumors turn out to be true the galaxy s6 software may be leaner and nippy err this time around later last week samsung also talked about the future support for multiple wireless charging standards although the galaxy s6 wasn't mentioned by name the post heavily suggested that the s6 would be one of the company's first handsets to feature support for multiple wireless charging technologies after the first video we are also pretty sure that the cameras technology will again be an important feature for the galaxy s6 Samsung's executives have promised intelligent camera technology and the company recently published an infographic seen right here about the evolution of its camera technology also with regards to the camera Samsung will reportedly use sony's IM x 240 camera sensor in the upcoming Galaxy s6 as reported by Sam mobile the galaxy s6 will also tote a 16 megapixel rear facing camera and not the 20 megapixel camera that was previously rumored now we also have some credible news regarding the s6 is battery and it turns out it might only be a 2600 milliamp hour battery a little lower than we might have expected but now we have another clue that the galaxy s6 will indeed pack a 2600 milliamp hour battery in the form of shots uploaded by a user of China's Weibo social network one of the albums uploaded by a set user shows photos that appear to be taken inside a battery manufacturing facility and one of the images is tagged samsung galaxy s6 battery why would Samsung reduce the battery size of the s6 the answer may lie on the phone sealed construction of the six point nine millimeter profile the design constraints probably for samsung to shave off size of the battery inside the s6 but that doesn't necessarily mean a smaller battery means reduced battery life there have been other innovations in Samsung's recent system-on-a-chip that reduce battery consumption so we'll have to wait and see for the review now for those of you who love the design of the HTC One m8 you're going to like these German retailer cyberport put up product pages showing what appear to be press shots and complete specifications of the HTC One m9 the pages have been since removed but mobile gates preserve the good stuff for posterity first up the specs shared by cyberport match everything we've been hearing through the grapevine about the HTC One m9 the device will feature a five inch full HD screen a Snapdragon 810 processor clocked at two gigahertz three gigabytes of ram 32 gigabytes for internal storage which are expandable and a 2900 male amp hour battery a 20 megapixel rear facing camera and a 4 megapixel ultrapixel front shooter the device will be slightly thicker and larger than the one and eight but HTC managed to reduce the m9 weight so last week I dedicated a whole show to smartwatches and one of the stumbling blocks that we felt was holding smartwatches back was the geeky design or lack of fashionable design well LG is trying to change that with the LG urbane at first glance the LG watch urbane appears to take the basic rounded design of the LG G watch our and simply glam it up a bit we're told it's a full metal design save the watch itself and can accept any 22 millimeter band of your choosing rounding out the spec list expect the same internals of the G watch are a 1.2 gigahertz Snapdragon 400 system-on-a-chip 512 megabytes of RAM 4 gigabytes of internal storage and a 1.3 inch rounded display sensors including at the accelerometer barometer compass and heart rate sensor a 410 million power battery should keep the lights on for a day hopefully and the LG G watch urbane will also be dust and water-resistant now watch is looking pretty sweet ladies is that something you would wear or gentlemen of a more fashionable persuasion is this something that you would buy and wear please let me know in the comments below and last week's show where I covered smartwatches there was lots of ladies commenting on that very topic I'd love to hear it a couple weeks ago I was able to listen to a podcast that covered the business world surrounding domain names and it was amazing because they were interviewing people who had very cleverly bought domain names from 10-15 years ago that weren't popular and weren't known and people didn't understand why they would be valuable and of course a few years later they were extremely valuable and this just changed their lives well we're sort of in a second gold rush when it comes to domain names because relatively recently domain name extensions have opened up it's not just calm net and org anymore I mean you need to check out the options and get educated about the possible opportunities for you you now have the opportunity to name your site
