Huawei P8 Lite (2017) goes on sale in the UK on February 1

A couple of weeks ago, the Huawei P8 Lite (2017) was officially announced as the successor to the first P8 Lite, which was released back in 2015. Today, the company revealed the smartphone will make its way over to the UK starting on Wednesday, February 1.
The phone will be available first in Vodafone retail stores and on PAYG for the price of £185 without a contract, and will also be available with a contract, with prices starting at £16 per month. You don’t have to go into a brick and mortar store to order the device, though – you’ll also be able to order the P8 Lite (2017) over the phone, if that’s more your thing. Online ordering will be added sometime in the future, but no specific time frame was revealed.
As a quick reminder, the Huawei P8 Lite (2017) has a 5.2-inch Full HD IPS screen and sports a Kirin 655 processor, along with 3GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage, with a microSD card slot available for adding even more storage. It also has a 12MP rear camera with an f/2.0 aperture and a 8MP front-facing selfie camera. Other specs of this phone include a 3,000mAh battery and a fingerprint reader on the back. Unlike other new phones on the market, this one does indeed come with Android 7.0 Nougat along with Huawei’s latest EMUI 5.0 user interface.
The phone has already launched in other parts of Europe for €240. While it is only available in a black color option at the moment, the company plans to release versions in white and gold in a few weeks. There’s no word on when the device will make its way to the US, but there are reports that it will soon be released in parts of Latin America, where it will reportedly get a name change to the P9 Lite (2017). Hopefully we will have more information on the phone’s market expansion very soon.

EVERYTHING WE KNOW ABOUT THE PIXEL 4, THE MOST-LEAKED PHONE EVER

Image
Google’s  Pixel 3 might have been the  most-leaked phone in history . Long before its unveiling, we knew practically everything about it from unboxing videos, photo comparisons, even a full review of the device. Surely, for the Pixel 4, Google would clamp down on leaks to leave some surprises for its debut on  October 15th , right? Let’s just say, if that was the plan, it didn’t exactly work out. We’ve now seen the Pixel 4 XL from every angle and in three different colors. At least seven different sources have touched this phone, many of them confirming the same specs. We not only know which cameras it’ll have, but also what they may be capable of, including air gestures (go figure). That doesn’t even count information Google has already shared  on purpose. So if you want to know almost everything about the Pixel 4 nearly a month before it’s announced, buckle up. We’ve sifted through all of the rumors and information we can find to compile everything we know — and everything we

Our favorite iOS apps for the iPhone and iPad in 2018

Image
As 2018 comes to a close, it’s time to look at some our favorite apps of the year. While not all of these are brand new, many of them popped up onto our radar for the first time in 2018, and are definitely worth the attention. Others are some of our favorites that are still best-in-class despite having been around for some time now. We aim to do things differently at TNW, and as such you’re not going to find the recommendations you’re probably used to seeing: Gmail, Skype, Dropbox, and the like. Instead, we want to focus on the best-of-the-best that you may not have heard of, and others that are just special enough to warrant a mention. As always, we’d encourage you to share some of your favorites in the comments below, or on Facebook. Enlight Pixaloop (Free Pixaloop  is one of my favorite apps on the market. Unlike typical image editors that allow you to remove red eye or apply a filter, Pixaloop allows you to create stunning photo animations with a few clicks on your
