Whats going on guys ,In this video i am going to tell you'll all the leaks and rumors about the upcoming Samsung galaxy S8

Android distribution numbers for December show Nougat at 0.4% of the market

Today Google has updated the Android platform distribution chart, as it does every month. So we now know how much market share each version of the company's mobile operating system had over the past week.

Let's start with 7.0 Nougat, the latest iteration of Android before today. It's now at 0.4%, a 0.1% jump compared to where it was in November's chart. Today Google has outed Android 7.1.1 Nougat for Pixel and Nexus devices, so we'll probably see that release in January's chart. At the moment there's still only one version of Android that has less devices running it than Nougat, and that's Froyo, which is more than six years old.

 

Marshmallow is now at 26.3% of the pie, up from 24% a month ago. Lollipop has 34% market share, down 0.1%. KitKat has dropped to 24% (from 25.2%), while Jelly Bean now makes up 12.8% of the market, down from 13.7%. Ice Cream Sandwich went from 1.3% to 1.2%, as did Gingerbread.

Hopefully we'll see more Nougat updates from various Android device makers soon, helping that version take up more and more of the pie.

Unreturned Samsung Galaxy Note7 units in New Zealand will soon be disconnected from mobile networks

If you are a Samsung Galaxy Note7 owner in New Zealand who is yet to exchange/return their unit, you are strongly advised to do so withing the next couple of weeks. Reason being, starting November 18, your unit will not be able to access any cellular network in the country.

"As part of our commitment to ongoing safety, Samsung would like to make our customers aware of plans to discontinue network service for Note7 devices," the company said in a statement.

"From the 18 November, customers still using the Note7 will no longer be able to connect to any New Zealand mobile network services to make calls, use data or send SMS messages."

According to the country's Telecommunications Forum chief executive Geoff Thorn, most of the Galaxy Note7 units sold in the country have been returned or exchanged, but "a few hundred" units are still in use.

Upcoming HTC 10 evo (Bolt) is shown in black in new leaked press renders

HTC is currently working on a new smartphone that may be sold under the name Bolt or 10 evo. The company could actually end up using both of those names, each restricted to certain markets. We've already seen the Bolt in leaked press renders as well as live images, but so far only in silver. Well, it's time now to take a look at the black version of the upcoming Bolt, thanks to some newly leaked press renders.

The device has been rumored to come with a 5.5-inch 1080p touchscreen, an 18 MP rear camera with f/2.0 aperture, 4K video recording, and a dual-LED flash, an 8 MP front-facing camera, 3GB of RAM, 64GB of expandable storage, and absolutely no trace of a 3.5mm headset jack.

Yes, this will be HTC's first handset to ditch the analog connector. The Bolt will have a fingerprint scanner below the display, and it will run Android 7.0 Nougat. In the US, it will be sold by Sprint. That said, it will be available globally. Pretty much the only mysteries remaining (aside from which chipset it uses) have to do with when it will become available and how much it's going to cost. Hopefully those things will get cleared up soon.

First Mi Mix sale ends in just 10 seconds

As you might recall, Xiaomi really managed to get fans excited with the announcement of the Mi Note 2 and Mi Mix flagships and even more so with their quick to follow initial flash sales. The former handset reportedly did great for itself, shattering the company’s personal sales records after a 50-second long sales event on November 1.

And while we do realize this is a clear-cut case of viral marketing, it is still hard not to acknowledge the Mi Mix and its new sales record. Frankly, it is hardly surprising that interest was so high for Xiaomi's extravagant, nearly bezelless concept phone, but 10 seconds still come off as awe-inspiring.

Again, we can't exactly be sure how many units were put up for sale and consequently moved within the 10 second period, since Xiaomi did say it intends to manufacture only 10,000 Mi Mix units per month.

Two versions of the Mi Mix were put up for sale. The Standard Edition with a 4GB plus 128GB setup went for $590 or so and the Exclusive Edition, with 6GB and 256GB storage, with an asking price of around $740.

If you missed the flash sale, Xiaomi has promised another one on November 8. However, given the limited nature of the handset, we can't imagine the Chinese OEM will keep up such a tight schedule for too long.

OnePlus 3T could launch as soon as November 14

OnePlus could be launching its speedier OnePlus 3T on November 14 if China-side rumors are to be believed.

Sadly this recent rumor doesn't shine any more light on what the expected OnePlus 3T brings over the current 3 but there's been some speculation on that too.

For starters the OnePlus 3T is expected to cost $479 - that's $80 more than the current model and for that price hike you could be looking at a speedier Snapdragon 821 (currently the OnePlus 3 comes with a SD820).

Some rumors suggest the camera will be a Sony IMX398 sensor but still 16MP in resolution.
The rest of the specs are expected to remain the same - the same metal body, the same 5.5" 1080p Optic AMOLED screen, 6GB of RAM, 64GB of storage and 3,000mAh battery with Dash Charge, among others.

Pixel XL adoption is faster than Nexus 6P, says analytics firm

Google is pushing the Pixel phones much harder than it did any Nexus before it. According to data by Appboy, it’s working.

The Pixel XL took a week to reach a market share comparable to the Nexus 6P two weeks after launch. And this is with some stock shortages at both Google and Verizon stores.
The smaller Pixel is showing some amazing growth too. A week after launch day, its numbers were 274% up. Similarly, the Pixel XL more than doubled its launch day numbers after a week of sales (up 158%).

Compare that to the established Galaxy brand - the S7 doubled its numbers a week later, growing slower than its predecessor, the Galaxy S6, which grew 171% in a week.

Of course, the chart makes it clear that while the Pixels are winning in terms of relative numbers, the absolute number of Galaxy S phones sold in the first week far outweighs the Pixels. Still, not a bad showing for a new brand and it’s clearly going better than the last round of Nexus phones.

Android's global smartphone market share now stands at around 88%

According to latest numbers released by market research firm Strategy Analytics, Android's global smartphone market share in Q3 2016 stood at around 88%, up from the 84.1% figure reported in the same period last year..

Apple's iOS, meanwhile, lost some of its market share - it's now 12.1%, down from the 13.6% share it claimed in Q3 last year. Talking about smartphone shipments, Android phones saw an Y-o-Y growth of 10.3%, while iOS saw a decline of 5.2%.

"Android’s gain came at the expense of every major rival platform," said Neil Mawston, Executive Director at Strategy Analytics. "Apple iOS lost ground to Android and dipped to 12 percent share worldwide in Q3 2016, due to a lackluster performance in China and Africa."

"BlackBerry and Microsoft Windows Phone have all but disappeared due to strategic shifts, while Tizen and other emerging platforms softened as a result of limited product portfolios and modest developer support."

Xiaomi Redmi 4 gets official on November 4, according to a teaser image

Xiaomi is set to unveil the Redmi 4 at an event on November 4, which is this Friday. At least that's what is allegedly teased by the image you can see to the left. The teaser has been outed by Xiaomi today, and it shows the upcoming handset's top left corner, seen from the front. You can just barely make out the earpiece, while the 2.5D curved glass on top of the screen is very obvious. The metal construction is also a given considering what can be seen in the image.

The Redmi 4 has been rumored to sport a 5-inch 1080p touchscreen, a 13 MP rear camera with dual-LED flash, a 5 MP selfie snapper, a Qualcomm chipset with an octa-core CPU, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, a fingerprint scanner on the back, and a 4,000 mAh battery. It will reportedly be available in gray, silver, and gold (with the first of those color options pictured in the teaser, we assume).

Price-wise this is set to be quite expensive compared to its predecessors, allegedly retailing for CNY 1,300 - which means $192 or €173 at the current exchange rates. Obviously though, it's still affordable enough for the specs it packs.

Xiaomi should also launch the cheaper and lower-end Redmi 4A alongside the Redmi 4, at the same event in just a couple of days. They will both run the latest MIUI version on top of Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
