T-Mobile's LG Aristo 2 PLUS is launching on June 15th with Android 7.1 Nougat

-
...

Android Oreo is nearly a year old now, and we're on our third Android P developer preview. So why exactly is LG launching the Aristo 2 PLUS on T-Mobile with Android 7.1 Nougat? Yes, it's a budget-oriented phone with its unnamed 1.4GHz processor and 2GB of RAM, but it's 2018. Come on.

Nothing on the LG Aristo 2 PLUS seems very deserving of that "PLUS" moniker. It comes with a 5.0" 720p IPS display, an unnamed 1.4GHz quad-core chipset, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, a 13MP rear-facing camera, a 5MP front-facing camera, and a 2,410mAh battery. The phone runs Android 7.1.2 Nougat in spite of every other phone shipping with Oreo nowadays, and that's matched by an also-pathetic microUSB port.

Our guess as to why this phone is shipping with Nougat is that LG doesn't want to deal with supporting Google's Project Treble. Google has mandated that all phones shipping with 8.0 Oreo or above must support Treble, and LG probably didn't want to deal with all that for a budget phone. We wouldn't be surprised to see an Oreo update pop up on this phone shortly after launch.

Apple is postponing new iOS features in favor of reliability and performance

Apple has decided to postpone new features in iOS in favor of improving the reliability and performance of the operating system, as according to a report by Axios. According to the report, Craig Federighi, Senior Vice President, Software Engineering, announced the revised plan to employees at a meeting earlier this month. This pushes features like refresh of the homescreen and in-car user interface, improvements to core apps like Mail and camera experience to 2019. What we will get this year is improvements to AR, digital health and parental controls. Apart from that, the OS will largely feature improvements to performance and user experience. We have seen Apple do this with macOS in the past, where they dedicate one entire update cycle to just refining the OS and make existing features work better. However, we have never quite seen Apple do that on iOS. This is largely due to the hyper competitive nature of the mobile market where competition and customer demands push companies t

Do more from your inbox with Gmail Add-ons

For many of us, email is mission control—the prompt to generate an invoice, prepare a presentation or follow up on a sales opportunity. With so many to-dos, imagine if you could complete these tasks directly from your inbox without interrupting your workflow. We believe email can do more, which is why we're launching Gmail Add-ons, a new way to work with your favorite business apps directly in Gmail. Gmail Add-ons, built for your workflows Rather than toggling between your inbox and other apps, use add-ons to complete actions right from Gmail. With Gmail Add-ons, your inbox can contextually surface your go-to app based on messages you receive to help you get things done faster.

Click the settings wheel on the top right of your inbox and then "Get add-ons" to get started. We made Gmail Add-ons available in developer p

Beyond eSIM: How iSIM could turn phones into the ultimate Internet ID

-
Image
Most modern smartphones still support the classic SIM card (well, the nano variant at least), but a gradually growing number of phones and other consumer gadgets are starting to support eSIM . We might not be too far away from yet another change in SIM tech, as devices could soon start using iSIM. Earlier this year, Arm unveiled its vision for the iSIM – an integrated SIM that fits into a device's system-on-a-chip. In the future, along with a CPU, GPU, LTE or 5G modem, your next phone SoC could also include the SIM card built inside it too. While there might not appear to be a big difference compared to eSIM, iSIM could end up drastically changing the way we use a wide range of connected devices. eSIM vs iSIM eSIM and iSIM are rather similar in a number of respects. Both replace the transferable nano SIM cards with a hardware chip that's permanently fixed inside a user's phone, tablet, or other gadget. When you consider that nano SIM cards are around 12.3 x 8.8 m
