2018-01-18
new Samsung patent envisions a future with facial recognition and no notches Tim Cook T's is a feature iOS update that will help undo throttling altogether and be where a new hack that could completely disable your iPhone through text messages again I'm Jaime Rivera and you know some of you are right my uber driver yesterday claimed that my name is the weirdest one she's ever heard this is PocketNow daily the official news today again don't begin with deals it's kind of slow right now but most important MWC teasers have just begun Nokia are pretty much hmd has just confirmed that we should expect an event to happen at MWC where we will see some awesome new phones from the company we have been waiting for Nokia to go back to its roots and show us something really bold and flagship like let's see if we do actually get something this time now for all five of you that have been waiting for the home pod we are still waiting for Cupertino to provide a solid date as to when the product is going to ship we've got some good news apparently manufacturing sources claim that they have already shipped 1 million units to Apple and they're not expecting that Apple will sell more than 12 million of these in 2018 so yeah there is progress there's just no official progress now let's talk about chai OS and it sounds like iOS for a reason for those of you that don't remember those text hacks where you'd get a specific link and you click on it and it makes something really weird with your phone there's a new one out there that's called chayo s and well the developer actually wasn't planning to launch this the reason why he did this is because he reported the bugs to Apple Apple didn't respond to them so he's like alright fine I'll make it public just to prove to you that it does have a problem so yeah if you click on the link the phone will start boot looping which is the least worst problem that you'll have you can learn more about the precautions and what you shouldn't click on in the link in the description and speaking of iOS Tim Cook was recently on record to claim that there will be an iOS update that will get rid of throttling if you choose to meaning we're expecting it to be iOS 11.3 probably and the whole idea here is that you will get the option to have throttling in order to have better battery life in addition to better battery longevity or you can choose to disable it and Apple will apparently give you a warning of what you're about to encounter so I can't wait to see exactly how bad it is to disable throttling expect the video whenever that launches and finally the very interesting news today I have to do with Samsung and a new patent I heard a lot of complaints when we did our iPhone 10 review about the notch on the iPhone 10 and apparently Samsung wants to do away with the notch altogether but in a very interesting approach instead of giving us minimal bezels with facial recognition and everything and well Samsung is envisioning a display with holes meaning a hole for the camera a hole for the speaker grille a hole for the home button at the bottom but the user interface actually works all around these I'm not exactly sure of the user interface will adapt to these which would make all the sense in the world since samsung provides such a heavy skin but yeah that's a very interesting approach to a new UI let us know in the comments do you think that you would prefer a notch or you would prefer holes in my case if you think about it the notch to a certain degree serves as a hole it's like a mole on the display that doesn't allow you to see things in full screen anyway so I don't think any approach would be better but the hey if Samsung can pull off holes and have you know these features work without it hindering the user experience I would love to give it a try leave us a comment down below let us know what you think friends again if you want to get the news earlier follow us I'm out comment subscribe to our channel by hitting this button up here you're gonna watch yesterday's PocketNow daily up here in our collaboration video over the best of CES down here you can also follow me on Twitter Jaime underscore to get our on Instagram at high meta meta please give this video a thumbs up if you liked what you saw I'm happy that I think so much for watching we will see you tomorrow from somewhere
