Look like something taken from a sci-fi movie! 🤩 10.2" display and thickness of just 3.6 to 4.75mm when unfolded, very impressive specs indeed. Single screen: 156.7 mm (length) × 73.5 mm (width) × 12.8 mm (thickness) Dual screen: 156.7 mm (length) × 143 mm (width) × 7.45mm/4.75mm (thickness) Triple screen: 156.7 mm (length) × 219 mm (width) × 3.6mm/3.6mm/4.75mm (thickness) Weight: 238 grams If not for the sanction imposed by US, which restricts Huawei from using Google OS, Apple, Samsung, Google etc. all going to eat grass. Hahahaha But the pricing is confirm not for the mass market. 16GB + 256GB = RMB 19,999 (SGD 3,666) 16GB + 512GB = RMB 21,999 (SGD 4,032) 16GB + 1TB = RMB 23,999 (SGD4,399)

Anyone using UMIDIGI mobile phone ? How was your experience ? It's not as well known, and seems to be a budget brand. Made in China of coz, I was looking for a budget phone and saw Shopee flash deal UMIDIGI A9 Pro for $99. Then found Amazon selling A11 Pro for $87, but it was for one color Frost Grey. Mist blue is $223. So I bought the $87 one. Funny way lah... Amazon pricing. 😁 https://www.amazon.sg/gp/product/B09FDRJ5HS/ Hopefully, it's not as bad as my other cheapo Xiaomi, Redmi, Poco phone.

As the title suggests, I have never charged my phone in the car. However it looks to be a more plausible option . Loads of info and most suggest it’s ok using the ciggy plug adaptors, wireless pads OR the usb/usb-C sockets provided . Any long term effects on the car battery ? Discuss

Hi All, Was at the mall yesterday and I saw something close to an Iphone. I took a closer look at it and actually realize there is this brand "Nothing Phone" I looks very much the same and it has more designs put into it and it actually so much cheaper. Come today, I check it out. Actually it is founded by co-founder of One Plus and it really looks good. If there is already a thread on this. Mod, please help to merge. But if not, I just want to know more about this new thingy and will it replace the Apple Iphones or even take up a big market shares from here?

S'porean raises suspicion about scam in phone call The SMS that Mr Mohamed (above) received. -- TNP Pictures: ARUL JOHN THE SMS message on his phone said he had won $5,000 from Malaysian oil company Petronas. But Mr Mohamed Omar Mahadi thought it was odd. Especially since neither he nor his wife had visited Malaysia since 2001 or taken part in any Petronas lucky draw. Still, he was curious and decided to call the number on the phone to find out more. A man with a Filipino accent answered. Mr Mohamed, 26, a pest control operator, recounted: 'He congratulated me and asked for my handphone number and bank account number. He also told me to visit a bank branch and inform the teller of my win. 'I told him I thought this was a scam and asked to speak to someone higher up in Petronas. That was when he warned me not to call the number again, uttered a vulgarity and hung up.' DIFFERENT DETAILS Mr Mohamed lodged a police report that same day on 25 Jun. He also looked up Petronas' website and found out that its contact details were different from those listed in the SMS message. Mr Mohamed said the SMS message appeared to be linked to some overseas calls his wife had received about two weeks before his SMS message arrived. Madam Dian, 26, a partner in her husband's pest control company, said the woman who called her identified herself as Mary, and wanted to speak to her husband. She gave the caller Mr Mohamed's handphone number. Madam Dian said: 'After that, I felt something was wrong, so I called my husband and told him not to answer the phone when he heard an overseas dial tone. He took my advice.' Madam Dian said that Mary continued to call her several times that day and insisted on speaking to her husband. Mary told Madam Dian that she was working for a company called ISS but did not elaborate. The next day, she called again and said she was from a Canadian company conducting a survey on small businesses in Singapore.' Madam Dian said: 'In later calls, she even became very rude and demanded to speak to him.' The woman, and later a man, continued to call Madam Dian for about 20 more times over several days. When The New Paper called the phone number shown in Mr Mohamed's SMS message, a man with a Filipino accent, who identified himself as Mr Sony, claimed we had called Petronas Centre at KLCC in Malaysia. Mr Sony, who claimed that he was a telephone operator, said that the prize money was given out in conjunction with Petronas' 34th anniversary this year and winners would have their money transferred to their bank accounts via Petronas' bank account in Singapore. He hung up when he realised he was speaking to the press. Petronas spokesman Wilson Lee said the SMS message that Mr Mohamed received was part of an SMS scam which had been reported in the Malaysian press recently. He said it may have been started by Indonesians or an Indonesia-based syndicate, and also targeted some Malaysian telcos and Malaysian cable TV network Astro. He said Petronas had lodged several police reports about the matter I also Ever Received Call from Hong Kong and Malaysia

Saw below article and got me thinking....Would I opt for a landline if I were to move house? Possible reasons for doing so would be : To stay in touch with relatives & friends, especially with those who are used to communicate via the vintage desk phone. 😁📞 It's a backup channel for anyone in my family who missed the call on their mobile. Following is from Singtel's FAQ: Can I retain my existing telephone number when I relocate? You can retain your existing telephone number only if any of the following applies : You are using Singtel Home Digital Line You are subscribed to Number Retention Service If neither of the above applies, submit your request and our Customer Care Officer will get in touch with you. How about you? Would you go for a landline if you were to relocate? Commentary: Please don't get rid of the landline Last week I tried ringing my parents. “You have dialed an incorrect number,” the robot-voiced woman said. It was definitely not incorrect, not something I could ever get wrong. It’s not even on speed dial: I enjoy pressing the familiar, familial numbers. How weird, I thought, there must be a glitch. A few days later I asked mum about it. “Oh yes, we got rid of the landline,” she replied with detached casualness. “We were paying a lot for it and just getting spam calls.” That’s it? A randomly ordered numerical sequence, recitable at speed and etched into my memory, gone just like that? My parents have had the same house and phone number since I was born. Dialing that number was a portal to the fixed physical place of home. I felt a strange sense of loss. I was mourning digits. Not everyone feels the same, evidently. In the UK, landline use has fallen by two-thirds since 2010, according to Enders Analysis/Ofcom. And given that only 17 per cent of 16- to 24-year-olds ever use a landline, the future of the home phone number is hanging by a thread. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/commentary/landline-home-phone-mobile-chat-technology-2861511

Does it make more sense to use a mobile phone like an iPhone 12 to take photos during vacation instead of a digital camera now?

Recently just got a second phone for work. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G. Got it from Circles @ $329 w/o plan, and because there is a 3rd year anniversary bonus from Circles, it's another $100 off the phone. So essentially I only paid $229 with free Xiaomi Wireless Earbuds. If you're out in the market for a budget phone, I think this is decent. Built quality good, design good, interface good. For the budget price I paid, pretty impressive. Total damage: Phone $229, Tempered glass $10, MyRepublic Lite $10/month.

Sleeping Chinese man robbed of life savings as smartphone’s facial recognition system is caught napping ZHEJIANG (China) — A facial recognition system failed to protect a Chinese man from a pair of sneak thieves who managed to unlock his phone while he was sleeping and steal his life savings of more 12,000 yuan (S$2,421), according to a local television news report. The man from Zhejiang province, identified only as Mr Yuan, contacted the police on Tuesday after noticing the money had disappeared from his bank account, the report said. Following an investigation, officers charged Mr Yuan’s two roommates with the theft, saying they unlocked the phone while the victim was sleeping and used WeChat Pay to transfer the funds to their own accounts. The stolen cash was later returned to Mr Yuan. The report did not name the brand of phone, but an unnamed police officer said it cost about 1,000 yuan. “It seems the facial recognition feature on Mr Yuan’s phone isn’t very reliable,” he said. “We conducted our own tests and found you could unlock it even with the eyes closed.” Many smartphones are fitted with a facial recognition system as a security device, but not all require iris scanning, so they can be unlocked more easily. China leads the world in facial recognition technology and it is rapidly becoming a feature of people’s day-to-day lives. Biometric computer applications that cross-reference huge databases of digital images and employ a variety of technologies, including iris scanning, are now widely used by security and surveillance teams to spot everyone from suspected criminals to jaywalkers Mr Tan Jianfeng, founder of Shanghai Zhongren Network Security, said that while fingerprint and facial recognition systems were useful, people should continue to use personal identification numbers to keep their personal data and finances safe. “If a password is lost, you can change it, but biometric information is not reproducible,” he said. “Once it has been leaked, you can’t get a new face. In the era of big data, once a biometric authentication has been completed all of that information is converted into machine code – and as long as it is in that form it can be intercepted.” In 2015, China’s Ministry of Public Security launched a project to build the world’s most powerful facial recognition database Its aim is to be able to identify any of the country’s more than 1.3 billion citizens — by matching facial scans with the images on their identity cards — within three seconds and with an accuracy rate of 90 per cent. Meanwhile, Chinese technology companies like Tencent, which developed WeChat Pay, have adopted facial recognition systems for use in retail, travel and mobile payments. People can also now withdraw cash from ATMs using facial recognition. SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST

I don't use a mobile phone and my missus only uses a couple of dollars worth of whatever a month. But she just told me that M1 are scrapping nearly all of their 19 mobile plans and reducing them to just two, the cheapest of which cost S$25 per month. Is this correct. She said Singtel and Starhub already do this. Is there a Mobile Plan with any provider which would suit her small usage. Thanks.

A mobile phone has been hurt as a result of this unfortunate accident between a van and a pedestrian along Sophia Road heading towards Wilkie Road on 11th of September. As we can see from this video posted onStomp and ROAD.sg, the driver of this Nissan van seemed to be distracted and was not paying attention to where he was heading, knocking a poor pedestrian hard from the back. Clearly, the van driver is at fault here... According to the police, the 40-year old pedestrian was conscious when conveyed to Raffles Hospital. He could be seen clutching his head as the video was about the end. We hope all is well for him. And his phone! 52576251_174470654273041_5621453545594435322_n.mp4

Royole Corporation unveiled its FlexPai smartphone at an event in Beijing, on Oct 31.PHOTO: TWITTER/ ROYOLE CORPORATION Chinese company Royole Corporation has launched what may be the world's first foldable phone. The company, which specialises in manufacturing flexible displays, unveiled its FlexPai smartphone on Wednesday (Oct 31) at an event in Beijing. The device has a 19.8cm screen with a thickness of 7.6mm and can fold in half, which would then split the screen into three separate smaller screens on the front, rear and spine. It weighs 320g, over 50 per cent more than the iPhone XS Max or Galaxy Note 9, both weighing slightly over 200g. Royole said that the Flexpai had been tested to withstand more than 200,000 open-and-shut movements, meaning it should offer years of use before any damage to the picture, reported BBC. "It is a historical moment that we have been waiting for years (to see)," said Bill Liu Zihong, 35, co-founder, chairman and chief executive of the company. He believes the technology will be popular as it caters to consumers who want a smartphone with a large display but is still easy to carry, reported South China Morning Post. The phone is set to retail from 8,999 yuan (S$1,780) to 12,999 yuan and will begin to be delivered in late December, said Royole. The six-year-old company said it would hold three "flash sales" to consumers in China on Thursday, reported BBC. BBC said that this launch has caught many industry watchers by surprise as many expected Samsung or Huawei to be the first to sell such a device. Evan Blass, a reporter with Venturebeat.com, a technology website, tweeted that LG intends to unveil a foldable phone of its own in 2019. I can't speak for Samsung... ...but I do know that LG plans to unveil a foldable phone at its 2019 CES keynote.

what a way to go ... and as usual, the question on everyone's mind is : what phone ? Mobile phone explosion kills Malaysian venture capital firm's CEO KUALA LUMPUR: A mobile phone explosion led to the death of 45-year-old Cradle Fund Sdn Bhd CEO Nazrin Hassan, according to a statement released by the company on Friday (Jun 15). The company confirmed that the post-mortem report concluded the cause of death on Thursday as complications from blast injuries attributable to an exploding handphone that was being charged next to him. A message from the family that has been circulating on social media quoted Nazrin’s brother-in-law as claiming that at some point the phone had overheated and exploded, causing a blunt trauma at the back of Nazrin’s head and caused his death. The mattress too had caught fire but Nazrin was already lifeless by then, said the brother-in-law whose name was not mentioned in the message. Police had earlier said Nazrin was trapped in a bedroom fire at his double-storey terrace house in Mutiara Damansara yesterday and probably died of smoke inhalation. He had also suffered burns on his body. Nazrin leaves behind his wife and four children, according to the Star.
