LG unveils 2019 TVs ahead of CES, headlined by an 88-inch 8K OLED TV

%name LG unveils 2019 TVs ahead of CES, headlined by an 88 inch 8K OLED TV by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

With just days to go before CES 2019 kicks off in Las Vegas, LG has pulled back the curtain on its slate of flagship TVs set to launch in 2019. Each of the company’s 2019 TVs will be powered by the second generation of its Alpha 9 intelligent processor and deep learning algorithm, which it claims will provide “a higher level of AI picture and sound experience quality” by analyzing source content and recognizing optimized conditions for the user.

In addition to the upgraded processor, LG has also partnered with Amazon to build Alexa directly into the platform. Rather than being forced to use an external speaker to control your TV via Alexa, you can just hit the Amazon Prime Video button on your Magic Remote. You can ask questions, manage your smart home devices, play music, check the weather, or anything else you’d normally do through Alexa.

Read Tim Cook’s full memo to Apple employees following the company’s grim earnings warning

%name Read Tim Cook’s full memo to Apple employees following the company’s grim earnings warning by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The broken clock pundits are working overtime on Thursday morning following a grim earnings warning that Apple issued on Wednesday afternoon. After all these years of claiming that Apple’s iPhone sales were doomed to collapse, the company finally ran into some serious trouble last quarter as growing tensions between the US and China apparently took a big bite out of iPhone sales. Apple relies on the iPhone for the bulk of its revenue and profit each quarter, so sliding sales inevitably have a huge impact on the company’s performance.

According to the revised guidance the company issued on Wednesday afternoon, Apple now expects to report $84 billion in revenue for the fiscal first quarter, down from the $89 billion to $93 billion range Apple initially provided last October. That’s an on-year decline of nearly 5%, so investors are obviously not happy. Apple shares were trading down more than 9% in Thursday’s pre-market session.

Leak sheds light on what might be 2019’s most exciting new Android phone

%name Leak sheds light on what might be 2019’s most exciting new Android phone by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The world’s first smartphone to feature a penta-lens camera module on the back is launching soon, according to a series of leaks. But the first-gen Nokia 9 PureView won’t be a real 2019 flagship Android device, as it’ll offer buyers a design reminiscent of 2017 phones and a processor from last year. An improved version is tipped to arrive in the second half of the year. That said, Nokia 9 phones will be available for purchase in multiple markets including the US, and it looks like it won’t be the only five-cam phone American smartphone shoppers will miss out on. A different Android flagship may feature a five-lens camera when it launches in late 2019 and just like the Nokia 9, it will be unavailable in US stores.

Good news, Apple fans: the best Apple deal of Black Friday 2018 is now also the best Apple deal of early 2019! Apple’s discounted iPad tablets on Amazon were probably the biggest surprise of the holiday shopping season. Apple products do typically go on sale ahead of the holidays, but discounts are typically quite tiny.

You can save up to $75 if you buy a current-generation iPad tablet with 128GB of storage in any color, dropping the price from $429 to $354.99. If you don’t need quite that much memory, you can get the 32GB iPad tablet in any color for just $279.99, a $50 savings.

The Galaxy S10 is expected to deliver a bunch of new features, including a few features that no other flagship smartphone will have to offer — not even the iPhone. But a new rumor says that the upcoming Samsung phone could pack an even more exciting feature than anything we’ve heard about previously, one that you’ll only notice when you charge your phone.

Apple’s unreleased iOS 13 software was just spotted for the first time, and we can’t wait

%name Apple’s unreleased iOS 13 software was just spotted for the first time, and we can’t wait by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Wednesday was a very rough day for Apple and the carnage is obviously carrying over to Thursday. The company issued a rare earnings warning after the market closed on Wednesday afternoon, stating that its holiday-quarter performance is expected to fall well short of the guidance the company issued last October. Apple and its CEO Tim Cook blamed its shortfall on worse-than-expected iPhone sales in China, but pundits are already tossing around theories that iPhone sales are weaker than expected in other key regions, too. If that is indeed the case, it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise considering how expensive Apple’s current iPhone lineup is. Not only that, but the latest iPhones lack any novel marquee features that might encourage people to upgrade. Instead, the iPhone XS is a faster iPhone X, the iPhone XS Max is a bigger iPhone X, and the iPhone XR is a more colorful iPhone X. That’s pretty much it.

The news cycle surrounding Apple will undoubtedly be gloomy for the foreseeable future. Things might get even worse later this year when Apple’s next-generation iPhones are announced. If early reports pan out, Apple’s iPhone 11 series will reuse the same design for a third consecutive year, which is disconcerting to say the least considering how many exciting new smartphone designs we’re expecting to see in 2019. Samsung, for example, will release new flagship Galaxy phones that are almost all screen, with just a tiny hole cut out in a corner for the front-facing cameras. Luckily, iPhone users are in store for some excitement as well in 2019, and they won’t even have to buy a new phone in order to enjoy it. That’s right, iOS 13 is set to debut this summer ahead of its anticipated September launch, and expectations couldn’t be higher.

Google is far from officially confirming that it’s working on a new operating system catered to all things smart, including mobile phones, tablets, computers, wearables, and other gadgets. But we’ve seen an increasing number of reports revealing that Fuchsia development is moving forward, as well as one important official move from Google that suggests the company is laying the groundwork that should make switching from Android to Fuchsia a breeze for users. A new report reveals a second move Google just made to ensure the transition from Fuchsia to Android will be as smooth as possible, and something we’ve been suspecting all along: Fuchsia will run Android apps.
