DualShock 4 controllers for the PlayStation 4 are wireless, which is obviously one of the greatest things about them since it means you’re free to move around whenever you’d like.

Samsung refutes its own executive’s claim of one million Galaxy Folds sold

Well, it seems there’s one more bit of news related to Samsung’s much-maligned Galaxy Fold handset that we’re likely going to end the year on. And for many of you who’ve followed along as Samsung made its first foray into foldable smartphones, this will seem like par for the course when it comes to how Samsung has handled the … well, let’s just say the bumpy rollout of the Galaxy Fold this year.

We told you just yesterday about Samsung Electronics president Young Sohn’s assertion at a TechCrunch event that Samsung has improbably managed to sell 1 million units of the Galaxy Fold so far — a massive achievement no matter how you look at it, considering the phone’s $1,980 price tag. Not to mention the botched launch, all the early flaws and design misfires that showed up in the first units, the surprising fragility of the device, and more. Except, not so fast! Just one day later, Samsung found itself in the unfortunate position of having to walk back that declaration of 1 million Galaxy Fold sales, with a company spokesman acknowledging that figure is not accurate.

Chinese smartphone maker OnePlus, which surprised the world with incredibly affordable flagship Android phones a few years ago, has had a massive 2019. It was even one of the few companies to launch a 5G handset just months after the first 5G networks were turned on. For the first time in its brief history, OnePlus did things differently when it comes to its bi-annual smartphone launches. Instead of just two handsets, including a brand new device in the first half of the year and an upgraded “T” version of it in the second half of 2019, we had two multi-phone launches, each consisting of at least a couple handsets. 2019 also marked the first year when OnePlus brought to market a smart TV set of its own, which represents a brand new product for a company that’s been known for its affordable phones so far. Come 2020, OnePlus might surprise its fans with another type of device it has never made before. And the action will apparently start just a few short weeks from today.

Don’t spend $35 on Apple’s 6-foot USB-C to Lightning cable when Anker has one for half that much

It’s terrific that Apple’s iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max finally come with a USB-C to Lightning cable and a USB-C charger adapter so you can fast charge your phone. It’s still super annoying that the cable is still so short, however. If you want to upgrade to a cable that’s a bit longer and more convenient, or if you want to fast charge a different iPhone model that doesn’t come with a USB-C to Lightning cable, you’ll need to cough up $35 for Apple’s 2m USB-C to Lightning Cable. But the Anker 6-Foot USB C to Lightning Cable with Power Delivery costs half what Apple charges, so definitely snag this one instead.

Anker USB C to Lightning Cable, iPhone 11 Charger [6ft Apple MFi Certified] Powerline II for iP…: $16.99

Here’s what you need to know from the product page:

Power Delivery: Use this USB-C to Lightning cable with your USB-C Power Delivery charger (including Apple 29W, 30W, 61W, or 87W USB-C Power Adapter) to charge your iOS device, and access fast-charging for iPhone 8, 8 Plus, X, XS, XR, XS Max, 11, 11 Pro, and 11 Pro Max.
Charge and Sync: Connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with Lightning connector to your USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) enabled Mac and iPad Pro to seamlessly sync & charge.
Ultimate Durability: Lasts 12× longer than other cables and proven to withstand over 12000 bends in strict laboratory tests.
MFi: MFi certification and strict quality testing ensure your Apple devices are charged safely, at their fastest possible speed..
A Cable for Life: We’re so confident about Powerline II’s long-lasting performance that we gave it a hassle-free, lifetime warranty.

Video shows off a massive iPhone 12 redesign that’s too good to be true

Whether you end up getting yourself an iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, or an iPhone 11 Pro Max, you can rest assured that you’re buying one of the best smartphones in the world. They’re the most powerful handsets out there right now, and they’re about to feel even faster once Apple releases its upcoming iOS 13.3 update, which fixes the phones’ RAM management issue that causes apps to fully close instead of remaining frozen in the background. Apple’s new iPhones also have what is arguably the best smartphone camera in the world, and no one can argue that Apple’s “Night mode” is by far the best low-light photography feature on any phone right now. Apple took the concepts Google introduced with the Pixel line’s “Night Sight” feature and turbocharged them. The results are amazing, and a quick search on any social media platform will yield samples that’ll take your breath away.

There is indeed plenty of praise that can be heaped on Apple’s iPhone 11 series, but there is something that you won’t find many people complementing: the design. There’s no question that the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max are sleek and stunning. But there’s also no question that they’re painfully outdated. Android phone makers have long since ditched the notch on their handsets and moved to even better all-screen designs, but Apple is stuck in the past. The company moved to a 3-year smartphone cycle starting in 2014 with the iPhone 6, so the iPhone 11 series features a design that was first introduced back in 2017 on the iPhone X. Top Apple insiders claim that next year’s new iPhone 12 models will usher in the big design overhaul that Apple fans have been waiting for, and we can’t wait to see what the next-gen iPhones have in store. A new concept video has been released that imagines what Apple’s new iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro models might look like, but unfortunately, it’s almost certainly too good to be true.
