iOS 10.1.1 update already released to fix Health data viewing bug

While we’re going to be the first to admit we didn’t hear many iPhone, iPad or iPod users complain of an “issue where Health data could not be viewed” once their operating systems were brought up to build number 10.1 last week, such a problem must have existed, and it must have been serious if Apple dedicated an entire update to its fix.Well, technically, the so-called changelog of the iOS 10.1.1 makeover alludes to bugs (plural) being ironed out, but aside from the aforementioned, nothing specific is pointed out. ...

Apple maintains comfortable tablet market domination, but Amazon and Huawei are surging

Any miracles to report between July and September 2016, perhaps turning things around for a long-struggling global tablet industry? Certainly not according to preliminary IDC data, which counted only 43 million slates and detachables shipped in total during 2016’s third quarter, down a whopping 14.7 percent year-over-year.On the bright side (yes, there is one, for a change), sales were considerably on the rise

Amazon offers decent discounts on trio of refurb unlocked iPhone 6s models

With just a few weeks to go until Black Friday, it’s probably going to take something really special to convince a well-informed mobile bargain hunter it’s already time for some sensible holiday shopping.But when it comes to current and even previous-gen iPhones, we know full well not to expect a lot from Apple. Especially with the Galaxy Note 7 prematurely out of the iPhone 7-contending picture, and

Lenovo Miix 720 could beat Surface Pro 5 to the Kaby Lake punch

No Surface Pro 5? No problem, as Lenovo appears to be planning the release of a revised Miix-branded Surface Pro 4 “killer” just in time for the fast-approaching holiday season. And no, we’re not talking about the 510 detachable Windows 10 tablet unveiled at IFA a few months back with sixth-gen Intel Core i-series processors, a starting $600 price, and up to 8GB RAM.The Lenovo Miix 720 looks like a ...

Huawei Mate 9 leaks in first real photos

We’ve heard a lot about the Huawei Mate 9, but so far images of it have been limited to renders and prototypes, at least until today.

Now two seemingly-real images of the phone have emerged on CNMO, showing both the front and back of the Mate 9.

These leaks largely line up with what we’ve seen and heard before, showing a big (probably 5.9-inch) screen, a metal shell in a gold color, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and a dual-lens camera, rumored to have 20MP and 12MP sensors.

You can also see a dual-LED flash on the back, and Huawei’s Emotion UI running on the screen.

The images don’t give much else away, but we’ve heard previously that the Mate 9 will come in a 1080p standard and QHD Pro version, with either 4GB or 6GB of RAM (again differing based on the version you opt for), a 4000mAh battery and up to 256GB of storage.

If the higher end rumors pan out then the Huawei Mate 9 Pro could be one of the best phones of the year (albeit a bit late in the game), and we should know soon enough, as it’s likely to be announced on November 3.
