Report: The LG G7 will be Unveiled in March, Launch in April

Smartphone Users Consumed 25% More WiFi and Mobile Data in 2017

For many folks, smartphones have replaced laptops and tablets as the go-to media consumption device. That isn’t terribly surprising — it’s easier than ever to watch content on the go — and stats show that people have warmed to the idea of using mobile data for streaming videos, music, and games. According to a report from research firm NPD, smartphone users in the US consumed 25 percent more data on their mobile devices in 2017 than in 2016.

The average monthly data usage per person climbed to 31.4GB this year, according to the report, up from 25.2GB last year. Of the total amount of data smartphone users consumed this year, 83 percent was video content. And in the third quarter of 2017 (April to June), 67 percent of smartphone users said they accessed video content via an app on their phones at least once a month, up from 57 percent from the second quarter of 2017 (January to March).

NDP attributes the upward trend to new unlimited data plans from carriers including Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T. According to the report, unlimited plan subscribers used 67 percent more data than their limited counterparts. Unsurprisingly, subscribers with capped plans used eight percent more Wi-Fi data than their unlimited plan counterparts overall, and a whopping 18 percent more in October 2017. (Interestingly, NDP found that Android users tend to use more Wi-Fi data than iOS users.)

What do you use your data for? Do you stream media on your mobile data, or do you prefer to do it at home?

Magisk v15.2 Brings Minor Fixes for OnePlus and Samsung Devices Magisk v15.0, the latest major release of the user-acclaimed systemless interface, was introduced back in December 26 — but not without minor issues that went under the radar during beta testing. XDA Recognized Developer / Recognized Contributor topjohnwu , the lead developer of the project, was quick to address some of these problems with v15.1, released just 3 days later. But it caused boot loops on devices including the OnePlus 5 or OnePlus 5T on stable/beta Android Oreo . Now, Magisk v15.2, the first update of 2018, addresses those issues and implements new SELinux policy rules that improve MagiskHide support on Samsung devices.

Dirac partners with AAC Technologies to Bring Enhanced Audio Quality to Smartphones, Smart Speakers, and more For the past few years, audio quality in mobile devices has become an increasingly higher priority. There was a time when audio quality was valued only by a few smartphone vendors, but that trend is slowly changing. We have seen the arrival of smartphones which specifically promote great audio quality as a feature, such as HTC’s smartphones since the One M7 as well as LG’s V series flagships . We have also seen the rise of stereo speakers in mobile, better DACs (such as Qualcomm’s Aqstic DAC ), and in general, a better audio experience. However, there still remains quite a way to go for smartphones to improve in audio quality. This is why AAC Technologies and Dirac Research have partnered to build first-of-their-kind audio systems that integrate Dirac’s audio processing technology with AAC Technologies’ micro-speaker technology. Dirac Research is an audio technology company wh

Canceled Lumia Device Shown Off in Video with Pen Input Currently, the mobile operating system market resembles a duopoly, with Google’s Android and Apple’s iOS in a league of their own. It wasn’t always this way, though. Smartphone enthusiasts will remember that at one time, Nokia’s Symbian was the most widely used mobile operating system in the world. Symbian couldn’t compete in the touchscreen era, but for a time, Microsoft’s Windows Phone looked to be a credible competitor to Android and iOS. Microsoft acquired Nokia’s Devices and Services division in 2014, and Windows Phone was starting to succeed in the budget smartphone market in some countries. However, it all went downhill from there as Windows 10 Mobile — Windows Phone’s successor — failed to take off in the market because of various reasons. In 2016, the company discontinued the Lumia smartphone lineup, and we haven’t seen a new mobile device from Microsoft since then. It’s worth noting, though, that rumors are abound rega
