Tech Alert: Moto Z2 might be Announced on June 27, 2017

You call it Moto Z2 or Moto Z Force, the recent news buzzing around regarding this phone is that it is going to be announced later this month- June. The phone is reported to be equipped with the 4GB RAM and Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 octa-core processor.

Moreover, the phone also supports the dual-camera setup, which is in-line with the previous rumors suggesting the smartphone’s specs would be similar to Samsung Galaxy S8.

Well, such rumors are still not confirmed by the company officially, but the teaser image for the phone was popped online earlier this month. According to the image, the phone – Moto Z2 is gearing up to reveal on 27th of June, 2017.

Although the teaser image does not reveal anything about the phone or its specs, but the teaser shows the woman holding a phone in her hands that look exactly like the leaked images of Moto Z2 before.

Specs of the phone are not yet confirmed, but fortunately, this biggest flagship from Motorola is only a few days ahead of us. All you need is to be patient. And keep visiting us for any other info and rumors regarding Moto Z2 or any other Android device.

The Surface Laptop; Microsoft Combines Elegance with Performance

Even though we have seen it all from Microsoft when it released tablets with kickstands, expensive desktops and laptops with detachable tablet screens, it really didn’t convince us all to use a new kind of computer. But FINALLY, we think Microsoft is on its right course to attract us and keep us hooked. A powerful enough laptop to run all your apps, a thin enough structure to carry around  with high-resolution screen and an impressive keyboard at a reasonable price, the Surface Laptop might just be the next-generation’s first choice.

The rumours reveal us three things. First, the Surface Laptop resembles MacBook Air. Second, the Surface Laptop has fabric on it. And the third, the laptop is said to run on a limited version called Windows 10 S.

The Surface Laptop Hardware


Striking a precise balance between portability, performance and the power, the Surface Laptop looks remarkably like what MacBook Air did in second-generation 2010. However, it is not entirely fair to think the Surface Laptop resembles an Air, because it comes in different colours and in fabric. Also, when Air and almost every other laptop is aiming for soft lines and gentle curves in their shapes, the Surface Laptop aims for the angularity.

Another remarkable difference between the two is the 13.5 touchscreen with a big, beautiful pixel-dense feature.

The Surface Pen


The laptop is said to be compatible with the Surface Pen which is sold separately. The screen does not seem to fold flat so that you will only want to use it for quick things.

Microsoft Surface Laptop Specifications


Processor: Intel Core i5 or i7

RAM: 4, 8 or 16GB

Graphics: Intel HD 620 or Iris 640

Screen: 13.5 inches, 3:2 aspect ratio, 2256 x 1504

Camera: 720p with Windows Hello

Weight: 2.76 pounds

Dimensions: 12.13 x 8.79 x 0.57 inches

Operating System: Windows 10 S (a free upgrade to Pro through December)

Battery Life: Claimed 14.5 hours for local video playback, but real-world use was closer to 8 to 9 hours.

Pixel 2018; Google’s Next Move in Conquering the Smartphone Market

An unswerving challenge to Apple’s iphone, Google abridged its Nexus programme last year in favor of the Pixel. Even though some might have thought it was just a subtle attempt of Google to rebrand the existing product to as if to make the latest thing feel fresh, the minority of us had faith in Google’s promise.

What with the rumours we are hearing about Google hiring new engineers signifies the distance Google is willing to go to take Apple at its own game.

Google’s Need to own its Supply Chain


Apple isn’t just about its software and the cutting edge hardware, Apple remains unmatched with its customer service. In analysing the Google’s satisfying past experience with the customers, one could only assume Google is the only company that has the potential to match the performance of Apple. Pixel represents the said capability and the willingness of Google to produce a cutting-edge product especially with a uniquely developed camera which still remains unmatched even after a many months.

Rumours indicate Google is looking forward to add the component of its own supply chain just as Apple does. Consequently it is justified to look forward to an LG-produced Google Phone at the end of this year. It is not impossible for Google to still use HTC as its anufacturing partner. Since the said LG-produced Google Phone seems less complicated.

Additionally, just as Apple does Google declares to reserve a vast amount of investment in LG display. The same manoeuvre helped Apple smooth out its supply deals. Even though unlike Apple, Google does not yet have the cards to place the bet, this situation will change over the year with the new Pixel.

Google’s New Taskforce


Rumours reveal that Google is designing its own system on a chip (SoC) for the mobile devices.   The other news revealed the former senior engineer at Apple Manu Gulati was appointed to lead the said project. This manifests the ultimate commitment of Google to capture the smartphone market.
