iPhone 7s and 7s Plus leak shows brand new phones with the same old design

In 2016, Apple surprised many of its fans by releasing two new phones that featured the same design as the iPhones they were replacing. That concept isn't terribly strange since Apple reuses designs all the time. What was odd about the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, however, was that they weren't "S" phones, which always have the same basic exterior design along with upgraded internal components and features. Instead, Apple's iPhone 7 handsets looked just like the company's iPhone 6s handsets, which looked just like the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. That's three consecutive years with the same design, and many people weren't happy about it.

Well, we've got some bad news for those people on Monday morning. This year's iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus will indeed be big upgrades compared to last year's phone. They'll also sport new glass backs instead of the aluminum on the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. But according to a fresh leak, the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus will sport the same overall design as their predecessors, potentially making this the fourth year in a row that Apple has recycled the design it introduced back in 2014.

Apple's iPhone 8 is set to be unveiled in just a few weeks. Since this is the iPhone that will feature Apple's bold new design, it's also the iPhone that has everyone's attention. Unfortunately, the iPhone 8 will be in extremely short supply for months to come following its release, so it's not the new iPhone most Apple fans will end up with if they want an upgrade anytime soon. Instead, they'll have to choose between the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus.

Both new 7s iPhone models will feature the new A11 processor and other key components from the iPhone 8. They'll also have glass backs and wireless charging support like the iPhone 8. But as we can see in a new set of leaked CAD drawings posted by gadget blog Techno Buffalo, they'll also feature the same overall iPhone designs we've seen since 2014.

A few of the leaked drawings can be seen below. They are believed to be accurate depictions of Apple's new iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus based in details from the factories building these new phones.

iPhone 7s Plus

As you can see in both cases, the new iPhone 7s and 7s Plus lack all of the key features that differentiate the iPhone 8 from earlier iPhone models. They still have home buttons and massive bezels, they still have LCD displays with comparatively low display-to-body ratios, and they still have the same exact sizing and shape as the iPhone 6, 6s, and 7 duos.

Apple is expected to unveil all three new iPhone models during a press conference early next month.

iPhone 8 Release Date 2017: Apple set to launch iPhones 8, 7S, Plus in new ‘Blush Gold’ Colors

The iPhone 8 rumors and leaks are lighting up the worldwide web and the mobile industry as technology enthusiasts wait for the most hotly anticipated flagship smartphone. The Cupertino-headquartered company, Apple Inc., as always is going to keep us in eager suspense. For this year, however, things are quite going little bit different.

We have an extremely strong projection of the iPhone 8 release date, and the specs sheet and new features of the much-awaited handset have appeared in a countless leaks over the last few months. Here's a loop of what we know about the much-awaited gadget from the Cupertino tech giant, so you can make up your mind.iphone 8 release dateThe iPhone 8 release date can be expected to fall on the second week of September. This is a very strong indication because the world's most valuable company in terms of market capital has a comprehensible annual launch cycle and release pattern of its iPhone lineup. In 2061 the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus was unveiled to the general public on September 7. In 2017, iPhone 6S and the supersized model was launched for the first time on September 9.

In recent years, it's been Apple's tradition to set these launches on the second week of September, either Tuesday or Wednesday. This allows the Infinity Loop to stock brick-and-mortar stores in preparation for the beginning of sales ahead of the October. As for this year, the company really has only a couple of dates to choose from that meet those elements. Apple could either opt to set the iPhone 8, 7S and Plus models launch for September 9 or 10. Given the issues with the iPhone 8's high-tech specs this year, the later date is the better one.

Earlier this year, there was rumors that the iPhone 8 release date would be delayed and possibly set back to October or November and some claims that Apple will push it through 2018.

The industry analysts at Wall Street suggests an iPhone 8 release date in September. Given the Apple's product launch and release history, and assuming an announcement on September 12th, observers are expecting the actual iPhone 8 release date to fall around September 22nd.

The iPhone 8 drastically radical design seems to be ready to blow all other top-end smartphones in the market. There have been a slew of leaks about the smartphone's overhaul design, including some from the company itself. Those leaks have provided all sorts of talented artists to render images of what the iPhone will look like.

The iPhone 8 specs and features, on the other side of the rumors, revealed in a massive number of leaks. We're getting three color options: Black, White and Blush Gold.

Now the American fast food chain McDonald's apparently have to chill and patience waiting to use the upcoming iPhone 8 to market its own business.

Yes, an iPhone 8 mockup has emerged in the McDonald's promotional email to customers in Australia while the Cupertino must be preparing for its next-iteration flagship smartphone's unveiling sometime in September.

Galaxy Note 8 Release Date 2017: Samsung To Bundle Note 8 With SD Card, Wireless Charger or Gear 360 in US, Dex Dock in Europe

Samsung electronics will officially unveil its highly anticipated oversized smartphone — the Galaxy Note 8 — on Wednesday, August 23 in New York. The Note 8 will almost certainly be the South Korean's highest-end flagship handset and to a certain degree because the previous iteration had a huge proneness to explode into flames.

You'll be able to watch the "Samsung Unpacked" event live at 8 A.M. PT, right here at Velvetiere.

For a while after the Galaxy Note 7 fiasco, the fortune of Samsung's phablet smartphone line was undetermined. It soon became quite clear that Samsung electronics isn't assassinating the brand name. Well all know that Samsung will be launching the Galaxy Note 8 on August 23rd, and according to notoriously reputable smartphone leaker Evan Blass (evleaks), the supersized smartphone will be available as early as September 15th.

Additionally, consumers will be able to pre-order the Galaxy Note 8 on August 24th, just a day after the the Samsung's Unpacked event.

Blass claimed that the Note 8 pre-orders will come up with freebies of your choice: a 256GB microSD card and a wireless charger or the Gear 360 camera bundles. It's unclear what freebies in other markets are they getting, but the notable leaker claimed that Samsung will bundle Galaxy Note 8 pre-orders with the DeX dock in European markets. That's the same dock the South Korea-based technology firm released with the Galaxy S8 that can turn your handset into a PC.

Blass, who goes by the username @evleaks on Twitter, also tweeted a full renders of the Note 8 in black and gold, which can give us an idea of what the device and its dual-camera would look like.

Meanwhile, the company has untimely listed the U.S. unlocked version (model UZKAXAA) of the Galaxy Note 8 on its online store. The product linkage itself won't go anywhere, but it does confirmed the leaked earlier which claimed that the smartphone would be shipped with 64GB of on-board storage for the entry-level model.

Galaxy Note 8 Pictures Emerge Ahead of Release Date

Popular Posts: Recent Posts:

With less than one week until the release of the Samsung Electronic (OTCMKTS:SSNLF) Galaxy Note 8, some new Galaxy Note 8 pictures have emerged. It is usual for the magnitude of leaked photographs to escalate ahead of the release of such a major device, and this has been the case once more with the Galaxy Note 8. This eagerly awaited phablet will be made official at the Unpacked event in New York, which will be held on August 23 this year.

New Galaxy Note 8 pictures

Now a number of new Galaxy Note 8 pictures have emerged, with one image seemingly depicting a dummy Galaxy Note 8 device. This is the best indication yet regarding the appearance of this device, with Samsung having already confirmed its existence earlier this year.

Naturally, the Galaxy Note 8 has a tough task on its hands to recover from the fiasco associated with the Galaxy Note 7. This earlier phablet release was notable for exploding with alarming regularity, and Samsung has instigated an eight-point safety scheme in an attempt to ensure that this mobile is significantly more durable.

The latest Galaxy Note 8 pictures will only whet appetites further ahead of the release of this device, though. Despite the negative connotations that the Galaxy Note series may have garnered from the unfortunate episode with the Galaxy Note 7, the consumer desire for a sequel is generally considered to be undiminished.

Aside from the importance of recovering from the Galaxy Note 7, this is also an important release for Samsung with the tenth generation of the Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPhone 8 on the horizon. This smart phone is expected to be a revolutionary handset from Apple in order to acknowledge the tenth anniversary of the iconic iPhone brand.

With Apple set to include a wraparound OLED display in its iPhone 8 release, Samsung will respond strongly with the Galaxy Note 8. Powered by the Snapdragon 835 in the United States, 6GB of RAM memory will be included in order to ensure that this smartphone performs admirably.

Legendary analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo has also suggested that the camera in the Galaxy Note 8 will be particularly impressive. This will be a dual-camera unit, which Kuo believes will significantly outperform the iPhone 7 Plus from last year. Whether this will put Samsung ahead of Apple in the phablet battleground remains to be seen, though, as Apple is also expected to escalate the photographic capabilities of the iPhone range this year.

Meanwhile, the S Pen stylus that has come to characterize the Galaxy Note range will also receive improvements in the forthcoming generation. Aside from the usual functionality associated with this peripheral, it is believed that the S Pen could include an innovative speaker system in the Galaxy Note 8 series. Vibrational functionality has also been linked with the S Pen, as Samsung attempts to improve the usability of this unit.

Press Release: Econet launches massive smartphone credit scheme for Civil Servants

Fayaz King, Econet COO

Mobile telecommunications market leader Econet Wireless Zimbabwe has announced a huge credit scheme that will empower civil servants and all eligible government employees to get new smart phones for free, and then pay as little as $12 per month.

According to the company, the scheme will benefit teachers, nurses, doctors and members of the uniformed forces – the police, the army, the air force and members of the prison services – as well as all employees of the government.

"We are excited to launch this scheme and to make smart phones available to our civil servants upfront, so that they can then pay very, very affordable monthly instalments when they already own the device," said Mr Fayaz King, Econet's Chief Operating Officer (COO).

"We are delighted to extend this offer to all civil servants and believe it will be great value for money for them as the festive season beckons," said Mr King, whose company is in the process of upgrading its entire network to 100 percent 3G coverage by the end of the year.

Econet's Chief Executive Officer, Mr Douglas Mboweni, recently announced that Econet, the largest telecoms company in the country with over 10.5 million connected customers, was in the process of upgrading all its network sites to 3G.

The company, which refers to itself as the Smart Data Network because of its commanding share of the data market, also offers the widest coverage of LTE (Long-term Evolution), or 4G, with over 260,000 LTE customers using the service, according to figures from the sector's regulator, POTRAZ (Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe).

Announcing the launch of the civil service device scheme, Mr King said Econet had partnered with local smart device companies GTel & Astro to sell the data-capable devices to Civil servants, and – for their convenience – make pay their monthly installations directly through the Salaries Services Bureau (SSB).

"We have partnered with local device companies to offer this service, and we are also working with the Salaries Services Bureau to ensure participating Civil Servants have a hassle-free method of settling their monthly instalments" said the Econet COO.

Confirming the development, Econet's Chief Marketing Officer Mr Navdeep Kapur said Civil Servants wishing to participate in the scheme would simply need to submit a copy of their national identity document, their army identity card (if they are in the army), their current pay slip and their proof of residence at any Econet Shop to acquire their new smart phone.

"All they need to do is produce a copy of their national ID, their army ID, their current pay slip and proof of residence at any Econet Shop country wide, and walk away with their new smart phone," said Mr Kapur, adding that there would be no waiting period once all the documentation was submitted.

Econet Wireless, which recently opened a service centre (Econet Shop) at Mabelreign Shopping Centre in Harare, has the largest and widest retail footprint among the three main mobile network operators in Zimbabwe, boasting 112 shops country wide.

Mr Kapur said the Civil Service device credit scheme will make data-capable devices available to all civil servants at affordable prices, and will enable government employees to enjoy high data speeds to be able to access popular data applications such as Whatsapp and Facebook.

"They will also enjoy the convenience of accessing a variety of Econet Apps such as the 'My Econet App' which puts several Econet services like checking one's balance, airtime top up or buying data bundles, accessing self-care services and finding where Econet outlets are located" Mr Kapur explained.

He added that the customers would also be able to access the recently optimized Ecocash App, the Steward Bank App, and the EconetPlus roaming up, among other convenient services, via their smart phones.

Mr Kapur said monthly payments for voice, data and SMS services would start from as low $12 up to $32 per month, depending on a customer's chosen package.

The latest offer comes on the heels of several data services and packages that Econet has launched in recent years, including Wifi-in-Kombis, that traveling and commuting Civil Servants will be able to access with their new smart phones.

The company said those wishing to be first to take advantage of the offer needed to visit any Econet Shop with a copy of their national ID, their payslip and staff ID so as to get their applications vetted and processed.

The Essential phone by the cofounder of Android will be shipping sooner than expected

essential ph-1YouTube/ReCode

Essential's Andy Rubin sent out an email on Wednesday to customers who pre-ordered the Essential smartphone stating that they should expect their smartphone to ship in the next seven days, according to 9to5Google.

That's great news for customers who pre-ordered the Essential smartphone, who originally expected the phone to be shipped in June. After Essential missed the original June release date for the smartphone, news that the company had lost its head of marketing and head of communications meant things were looking shaky for the startup.

But Essential has been on point with keeping customers up to date with the progress of their orders via Twitter. On July 21, Rubin posted a tweet that the Essential phone will be shipped "in a few weeks." While the update was welcomed, the shipment date of "a few weeks" was still a little vague. On August 9, Rubin posted another tweet saying that the device was in "full mass production," and he promised another update in the following week. Again, the progress update was positive, but the shipping date was still vague.

We are in full mass production, ramping up to deliver your Essential Phone. Find out where you can get yours next week! #thisisessential pic.twitter.com/CYrhTMSt1g

— Andy Rubin (@Arubin) August 9, 2017

Indeed, Rubin kept his promise with Wednesday's email, and the device is being shipped to pre-order customers sooner than expected. However, those who ordered the white model will have to wait "a couple weeks," as only the "black moon" option will be ready to ship in the next seven days. Rubin offered the chance for those who pre-ordered the white model to switch their order to the "black moon" option.

There's no official word on when the Essential phone will be available to buy outside of pre-orders, but things are looking up. Considering that the company is hosting an event on August 21 in New York City and another on August 25 in Los Angeles, it's likely that the phone will be fully released some time after August 25.
