Samsung is developing a new flip phone – images and specifications leaked

While everybody is expecting the new Samsung Galaxy S7 and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, Samsung is actually thinking more about their grandparents and are developing another Samsung flip phone. If you were born after 2000 you probably don’t even remember ever seeing a flip phone other than the internet or your grandparents house but Samsung is trying to bring the flip phone trend back.
As the new Samsung flip phone was leaked by SamMobile it can’t possibly be a joke, although the idea of bringing flip phones back to life does seem funny in comparison to our touch screen smartphones. The new model is called SM-W2016, probably because it will be released in 2016 and who know maybe it will be announced in February with the new Samsung Galaxy S7 series and along side images, specifications have also been leaked.
The Samsung flip phone will actually run on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop will have 2 screens on both sides of the opening top half and amazingly it will be powered by a 64-bit Octa-core processor with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. Basically considering its performance it resembles a Samsung Galaxy S6 in a flip phone cover. As the images show the flip phone will have 2 cameras but there was no information leaked about their quality.
Nowadays finding a phone with actual buttons is pretty hard because everybody desires high-end touch screened devices leaving the old school mobile phone model behind. By bringing back the flip phone style I sincerely believe Samsung will have a big success.

Google appeared as a car manufacturer

Google has recently used CES as a platform to present its philosophy of “Better Together,” the notion that all devices should get along with one another. Typically, this entails making announcements regarding new Cast compatibility and features like Fast Pair. The business revealed that it is collaborating with Spotify to incorporate the Connect streaming capability into the Android UI at CES 2023. Additionally, it showed a sneak peek at an audio handoff tool that would recommend various devices to shift your music to based on your preferences and location.
However, CES is a significant vehicle event, and Google also sells items for cars. Additionally, it said today that the Polestar 3 would receive its higher-resolution maps, and it debuted the most recent Android Auto user interface for the first time since it was revealed at I/O 2022.
Two vehicles, a Volvo EX90 with Google preinstalled and a BMW i7 with the new Android Auto experience, were at the Google stand in the trailer lot of the Las Vegas Convention Center. We had never seen the Volvo before, and we’ll be posting a separate hands-on on that experience shortly. The new Android Auto is the main topic of this article and video.
The redesigned interface will support larger screen sizes and have a split screen layout, as we discovered at I/O. Google has eliminated the status bar and inserted a row of shortcut keys below it, along with some indication icons in a small area to the top left. When we were in the car, the Spotify app was located on the left panel, and we could access a list of suggested playlists by swiping in from the right side.
Alerts that you won’t have time to respond to while driving are likewise stored in this left pane. For instance, you can swipe right on a notification to move it to the dock, where it will wait until you’re ready to deal with it.
Check out the video up top for more of our experience with the updated Android Auto in the BMW i7! And be sure to pay attention this week as there will be a ton of news at CES 2023.

WhatsApp’s new Communities feature aims to bring related group chats together

Additionally, stand-alone groups will now have access to 32-person video chats.
One of the new features that WhatsApp is introducing is one that aims to group together related group chats. The Communities feature, which was introduced earlier this year by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, aims to let users consolidate group chats “under one umbrella with a structure that works for them.” For Facebook and Instagram, comparable technologies are under development.
In the upcoming months, communities will be accessible to all WhatsApp users. To discuss topics that are important to you, you can create smaller group chats inside a community and easily switch between them. WhatsApp will provide administrators with “strong new capabilities” to govern communities, including the capacity to select which groups to include and the option to broadcast announcements to all users.
WhatsApp suggests that communities may be created through local areas, workplaces, and parents with children attending the same school. To begin, select the Communities tab from the menu at the top of the Android app or the bottom of the iOS screen. You will have the option of building a community from scratch or expanding an existing one.
The Communities feature has some similarities to Facebook Groups (as well as Nextdoor and Discord), but it is protected by end-to-end encryption. Making group chats more like Facebook Groups, where false information has thrived in recent years, may have some drawbacks, even though Zuckerberg has been eying a community-driven model to lessen the reliance on feeds across Meta’s applications. Due to the platform’s focus on encryption, WhatsApp generally has fewer moderation capabilities, which may make it harder to keep a lid on fabrications.
In other places, WhatsApp is giving groups—including those that aren’t connected to a community—new functionality. Group polls are also being added, along with support for the 32-person encrypted video conversations that Meta has been beta-testing over the past few weeks. Furthermore, groups now support a maximum of 1,024 people.
