The Honor View 20 may be Huawei’s only new phone at CES 2019 (and, in fact, the only satisfying phone of the entire show), but the company threw in a bonus device. Or rather, a bonus color for the Honor 8X: Phantom Blue. Take a look at the photos below — it’s pretty. What makes the color …

Amid the hoopla of CES 2019, next-generation 5G tech is once again the talk of Las Vegas. But as with previous editions of the big electronics show, it’s largely just that — talk. That’s because, to date, only a few consumers have actually experienced a real 5G network — AT&T launched the next-generation network in select cities last month, while Korean …

The tiny right corner of your smartphone’s screen holds some valuable real estate.  After all, it’s where you stare at to see if you have coverage, or whether you’re on Wi-Fi.

The executive, who co-founded graphics-chip maker Nvidia, on Wednesday declared that “Moore’s Law isn’t possible anymore.” A key part of semiconductor manufacturing is shrinking the components called transistors, the extraordinarily tiny electronic switches that process data for everything from the clocks in microwave …

When we met with Samsung at CES 2019, it made it clear its new Notebook 9 Pro as well as the previously announced Notebook 9 Pen are about design just as much as performance. For the Notebook 9 Pro, Samsung conducted a US-specific design study that influenced its choices on bezel design, profile taper and corner radii, a spokesman told CNET. The result is a very different design …

Samsung’s tried to tease us with a glimpse of the future at its developer conference last November when it quickly showed off a tablet that would bend over backward to fit in your pocket. But two days later, it was shown up by another folding device: The Royale FlexPai. The foldable phone is currently available in China and is currently the talk …

The good news: Sonos’ smart speakers will add support for Google Assistant in 2019, delivering on a promise the company made when the speaker launched more than a year ago.  The bad news: While the Sonos speakers also have Alexa on board, you can’t have both Amazon’s and Google’s voice assistants running concurrently on the same speaker (yet).
