We Tried The World's Thinnest Foldable Phone: These 5 Things Stand Out

Image
Oppo set a new precedent by launching the world's thinnest foldable. The Oppo Find N5, in fact, didn't pull any punches and served a handful of goodies that leave the likes of Samsung feeling like innovation laggards. Despite its sleek chassis that is thinner than a pencil, Oppo managed to fit a bigger battery inside its phone and souped it up with wireless charging creds that are twice as fast as Apple's latest iPhones. The Oppo Find N5 also set another precedent by serving a foldable OLED panel without any discernible crease. The phone's camera hardware is no slouch either. Armed with Qualcomm's fastest silicon, Oppo also paid special attention to the software experience and delivered Boundless View, the best split-screen multi-tasking experience on the Android side of the ecosystem. Another notable surprise is the built-in remote Mac control system. With a simple app-driven setup, you can access your Mac on the Oppo Find N5 and seamlessly manage file...

Consumers are lashing out at fitness technology company Whoop, after it allegedly backtracked on some of its earlier promises to users. Whoop, which makes screenless wearable fitness trackers, had marketed itself with a fairly unique subscription model. Users would supposedly pay a monthly fee—costing from $199 to $359 a year—and receive free hardware updates when new models get released. However, Whoop is now requesting that users pay a $49 to $79 upgrade fee, or extend their subscription by twelve months, if they want access to the newly updated line of wearables, according to the company's FAQ page. This seems to contradict a now-deleted blog post on the company website, which explicitly said that “WHOOP members receive the next-generation device for free after having been a member for six months or ...

iPhone Fold just tipped for breakthrough display technology — and it could change everything

Image
Apple's foldable iPhone may just be a rumor at this point, but when it does debut — possibly as soon as next year — it could feature a custom display process that could set the standard for future phones. That's according to a rumor appearing on Korea's naver blog. The leaker, a poster named yeux1122 claims that the foldable iPhone will feature a Samsung-designed display that meets Apple's requirements for thinness, power efficiency and brightness levels. In an intriguing addition to the rumor, Samsung may have designed the screen as part of its display business. But Apple would hold the trademark. The rumored display balances thinness and power by integrating the touch sensor directly into the panel — a process known as in-cell touch. For reference, Samsung currently builds its devices with a separate touch layer placed on top of the OLED display. That's called on-cell touch, and you can see it in action on board current Galaxy Fold model...
