You can’t use Samsung Pay on your Gear S3 if you have a Google Pixel device

When the Gear S3 launched, Samsung clarified that it would support Samsung Pay and it would work with any Android device running Android 4.4 KitKat and newer. It was pretty awesome news, and meant that Samsung Pay would be able to spread to tons more people, not just Samsung users. Bad news: that was completely […]

But, manufacturers still think consumes want […]

There wasn’t a whole lot wrong with the OnePlus 3, and our very own Jared Peters went as far as to say that the “Third time’s the charm” in his review. That didn’t deter OnePlus from retiring the OP3 from service, though, and replacing it with a slightly updated version called the OnePlus 3T that went […]

Ears, hands or eyes

 Even before smartwatches, I did not wear a watch. I did not buy an Apple Watch or Pebble, despite the cool factor, even though I always upgrade to the latest iPhone as soon as it comes out. I would also suggest that in order for an innovative new device to take off and become a platform, it actually needs to pioneer a new user interface that utilizes a different one of our limbs or senses.
