How Google Maps Made The Navigation Industry “Sweat”

- April 13, 2018

The arrival of contemporary smartphones and mobile apps in the late 2000s didn't just fundamentally change what consumers expect from their handsets, it also ended up disrupting a wide variety of industries, with mobile navigation being its first target. Founded in 1999, Santa Clara, California-based Telenav was enjoying a relatively successful first decade of existence, having worked with major U.S. carriers such as AT&T and Sprint on offering navigation services. Following the arrival of Google Maps, it suddenly found itself having to rethink its flagship product after after Google's solution, offering a comparable navigation service free of charge, became available on every new smartphone. "It made the industry sweat quite a bit at the time," Telenav Executive Director of Strategy Ky Tang recalled in an interview with Android Headlines, asserting Google Maps had changed the navigation game significantly. At a time when smartphones were enjoying massive globa...

Telenav Seeks Disruption With Free In-Car Services

- April 05, 2018

Location-based solution provider Telenav is seeking to disrupt the in-car services industry with a new monetization platform designed to offer a variety of in-car services such as free navigation to consumers and monetize them through advertising. Originally announced at Las Vegas, Nevada-based Consumer Electronics Show in January, Telenav's offering is effectively targeted at bringing the ad-supported software business model that already proved its worth in the mobile industry to the in-vehicle tech segment. The company's internal studies and a number of independent surveys suggest the vast majority of consumers "would prefer free in-car services monetized through ads rather than pay for them" like they would traditionally, Telenav Executive Director of Strategy Ky Tang told AndroidHeadlines in an interview. Telenav says its in-car solution can be applied to a wide variety of use cases and technologies that consumers have come to expect from contemporary vehicles....

- November 16, 2018

The OnePlus 6T is the biggest launch yet for the one-time underdog out of China. After years of selling their phones directly and unlocked, OnePlus has now found a carrier partner (T-Mobile) and also opened up their phone to usage on Verizon's network here in the US. So even though the hardware isn't a massive upgrade over the OnePlus 6, which was released only a few months ago, the reach for the OnePlus 6T is a big, big deal. But we're not necessarily here to talk about how big some carrier deals and connectivity are for OnePlus. We're here to tell you if the OnePlus 6T is the phone you should buy. In short, the OnePlus 6T remains the king of value. The OnePlus 6T isn't the best phone you can buy, though, but it is a really good one. Let's dive deeper in – this is our OnePlus 6T review. The Good Specs Overall, the specs list for the OnePlus 6T is right up there with the best of them. You've got a big full HD display, Snapdragon 845 pro...
