Motorola accidentally showed the Moto X (2017) in their new rap video, did you spot it?

The Moto X was one of the more beloved Android handsets back during a time when smartphone design was growing sort of stale. Being able to customize the look and storage of your smartphone was always a fun prospect, but the Moto X was never about raw hardware specs. Rather, the Moto X was Motorola's way of focusing on meaningful innovation through the use of software features that looked to actually enhance the user experience, not get in the way of it.

If you've been keeping up with the latest rumors it seems Lenovo still has plans for the Moto X with an all new model for 2017. While it reportedly wont be the hardware performer as it was in year's past, it could help fill out Lenovo's Moto product portfolio nestling somewhere inside their premium/mid-range segment. We recently got a peek at a leaked product render out of China showing the device in gold, but in case you needed something a little more official, look no further than Motorola's new rap video. Yes, you heard that right.

Celebrating 44 years in the mobile telecommunications business, Motorola put together a fun video showing off everything from the world's first mobile cellphone — the Motorola DynaTAC — to the recently released Moto Z (my personal favorite Android device) and various Moto Mods. If you look carefully — right around the 2 second mark — you'll get a brief glimpse of a blue colored Moto phone not yet released. This design lines up perfectly with leaked images of the alleged Moto X 2017 we've been seeing around the net, so it seems someone at Motorola may have included the phone on accident. Whoops.

Oh, and in case anyone thinks this might be the O2 exclusive blue Moto G5, here's a quick comparison of the two:

A lot of Galaxy S8 users are reporting problems with missing texts

The Galaxy S8 is one of the best smartphones to debut in 2017 , but it seems like there is an increasingly large number of reports of people experiencing problems with receiving text messages on the phone. The reports all seem to have the Galaxy S8 in common, as most people report the problem no matter which carrier they're using. Threads for Galaxy S8 users on Verizon , AT&T , T-Mobile, and Sprint reveal the same problem with delayed texts or texts not arriving at all. It also doesn't seem to be exclusive to a specific messaging app, as several reports show it's happening in the default Samsung SMS app, Textra, and even Android Messages. Someone suggested trying to turn off Advanced Messaging in the default messaging app to see if that stops text messages from being delayed but right now this solution is pretty anecdotal. Have you been noticing missing text messages on your Galaxy S8? Let us know in the comments. source: here via Blogger http://i...

Why would you want to build your own VR backpack? To save money and move freely!

One of the first issues we came across with the HTC Vive was the cable that follows you around the room, potentially tripping you up or pulling on the headset when you've taken time to get a perfect fit. While mainstream wireless VR systems are seemingly somewhere around the corner, some PC manufacturers have taken it upon themselves to create the next best thing: VR backpacks. The cable running from your PC to your headset is no longer a problem, and immersion is taken one step further. Unfortunately, these backpacks are usually prohibitively expensive, and, besides, you might already have the hardware needed to create your own. Is it possible? Is it worth the time? Let's find out! Pre-built backpack options Before we get into building our own backpack, let's take a look at some pre-built offerings from HP, ZOTAC, and MSI. HP OMEN X For about $3,000 , you can grab this sleek, compact PC with an Intel Core i7-7820HK quad-core processor (CPU), an NVIDIA GTX 10...

UBER IOS APP CAN VIRTUALLY ‘SEE’ YOUR PHONE SCREEN, AND APPLE APPROVED IT

WHY IT MATTERS TO YOU Permissions inside the Uber app sound like a privacy nightmare, but have never been abused, and will soon be removed. To better prepare its Apple Watch app, Uber used technology enabling it to view and record what was happening on an iPhone's screen, even when the Uber app was only running in the background. The permission to do this was granted by Apple, and although Uber claims not to use the system anymore, it remains part of the app. The news comes from Sudo Security Group, which unearthed the capability — called an Entitlement — in the Uber app. While this sounds like a security and privacy nightmare, the entitlement doesn't work like a screen-recording app, according to an app researcher speaking to Gizmodo , and will be removed from the app soon. What it does is visualize colors and pixels on the screen, not precise details. However, the concern is this data could be decoded and interpreted to reveal sensitive personal inf...
