Corning Gorilla Glass 6 announced, offers 2x improved damage resistance over Gorilla Glass 5 Corning Incorporated today announced the Gorilla Glass 6, successor of the most popular Gorilla Glass 5 that was introduced back in 2016. "Subjected to a new and rigorous test methodology in our labs, on average, Gorilla Glass 6 survived 15 consecutive drops from 1 meter onto rough surfaces and is up to 2x better than Gorilla Glass 5. Under the same test conditions, competitive glass compositions such as soda lime and aluminosilicate didn't even survive the first drop," says Corning. Corning said that the Gorilla Glass 6 has capability for significantly higher compression in the glass relative to Gorilla Glass 5, thus improving survivability. On tumble test, the Corning Gorilla Glass 6 is equivalent to the Gorilla Glass 5 and is better over ion-exchanged soda-lime glasses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok1_jC7MJLY This also promises enhanced wireless charging, larger screen sizes with smaller bezels, and customization through printed glass backs. Corning Gorilla Glass is now used in over 6 billion devices by more than 45 major brands. The Corning Gorilla Glass 6 is now being tested by OEMs, and is expected to be used in devices in coming months. John Bayne, vice president and general manager, Corning Gorilla Glass, said: As consumers become more dependent on their smartphones, the opportunity for potentially damaging drops is ... |

Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2018) surfaces in first press render Samsung apart from working on Tab S4 is also busy prepping the Tab A 8.0 (2018) and from the rendered image, you can read the date August 9, possibly hinting at its launch date, which also happens to the same day as the Galaxy Note 9 launch. As the name suggests, the tablet sports an 8-inches display with more compact housing compared to the Tab A (2017). Samsung seems to be working on eliminating the physical home button to save space as much as possible. The rounded glass on the left and right of the screen gives the Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (2018) more premium on the eye. On the right are the volume buttons and the power button with microSD card slot for memory expansion. It is 7.5 millimeters shorter and comes out at about 204.6 millimeters. The tablet is expected to come with Android Oreo. However, at this moment, there are details on the specifications of the tablet, but with the probable launch inching closer, we should know more details at the time of launch. Source |

European Commission fines Google $5.04 billion for forcing its apps on Android manufacturers The European Commission has fined Google €4.34 billion ($5.04 billion) for breaching EU antitrust rules. It claims that since 2011, Google has imposed illegal restrictions on Android device manufacturers and mobile networks to cement its dominant position in general internet search. The commission says that Google needs to put an end to the conduct within the next 90 days or face penalty payments of up to 5% of the average daily worldwide turnover of Alphabet. It says that Google imposed conditions that manufacturers have to pre-install the Google Search app and browser app (Chrome) as a condition for licensing Google's PlayStore. Google said to have made payments to certain manufacturers and mobile network operators on condition that they exclusively use the Google Search app on their devices. Google said to have prevented manufacturers wishing to pre-install Google apps from selling smartphones other than Android. EU says that Google gets the vast majority of its revenues via its flagship product, the Google search engine. Anticipating the change from desktop PCs to mobile internet, Google developed a strategy to make sure that users would continue to use Google Search also on their mobile devices. The Commission decision concerns three specific types of contractual restrictions that Google has imposed ... |
