It’ll be a while before Xiaomi launches a smartphone in the United States, assuming it ever does, but that doesn’t mean Xiaomi won’t launch other kinds of consumer electronics. During the Google I/O developer conference on Wednesday, the company revealed that it’s partnering
Getting people to download your app is the easy part (relatively speaking), it’s getting them to continue using it that’s difficult. This is according to an analyst by the name of Andrew Chen, who recently published an article to his website claiming that most people stop using an a
The Xperia Z-series has never been a big sales generator, and considering the laughable state of Sony’s mobile business, it’s no surprise that the company has decided to kill off the series. Sony confirmed as much on Wednesday when it announced that last year’s Xperia Z5
Samsung may have nailed the design aspect of the Galaxy S6, but design alone isn’t enough to sell a smartphone, and the lack of exciting features on the S6 was a significant factor in the device’s lackluster sales. This time around, however, the company will be putting most of its f
I’m sure we’ve all heard about Samsung’s struggles in the smartphone market by now, and it’s going to be interesting to see how the company tries to turn things around this year. Naturally, that turnaround will be centered around the Galaxy S7 and its derivatives, and from th
After more than a year of false leaks and rumors that did nothing but get our hopes up, it’s nice to see a leak regarding the Xiaomi Mi5 that we can be fairly certain is actually true. We know that the smartphone will be launching in February, but according to a leaked product page from a thir

HTC released some solid smartphones last year, but with how ridiculously competitive the mobile market is, being solid isn’t nearly enough, and HTC is paying the price. Those solid smartphones earned the already struggling company a 35% decrease in sales in 2015. Should this trend continue, th
I lost count of how many Xiaomi Mi5 rumors we reported on last year, but as 2015 started to come to a close, it became clear to everyone that Xiaomi had no intention of releasing a flagship smartphone that year. Most reports agree that this was done to avoid the overheating issues that plagued the [
As China’s mobile market continues to mature and saturate, all eyes are turning to India as the country’s mobile market continues to boom. Earlier this week, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India announced that the country has become the second in the world to reach one billion
The LG G4 was a solid device, but when you’re competing in the extremely crowded market for high-end smartphones, just being solid isn’t enough. Things might be different with next year’s LG flagship, however, as a new leak suggests the device might be one of the mos
The Xiaomi Mi5 may very well be the most-leaked smartphone of the year, and one of the most-anticipated, which is funny considering that it’s not even going to be released this year. If rumors are to be believe, it was originally scheduled to be released late this year, but overheating issues
