Porsche Design Mate 9 pre-orders finally begin for €1395

If you have been waiting patiently to order the Porsche Design Mate 9 since it was first announced in late 2016, your wait is now over. The limited edition version of the Huawei Mate 9 is now available to pre-order from the Porsche Design site, and it will set you back a whopping €1395.

This version of the phone has many of the same hardware specs as the Huawei Mate 9. Both have the Kirin 960 Octa-core processor, Android 7.0 Nougat with the custom EMUI 5.0 user interface, dual rear 20MP and 12MP cameras, an 8MP front-facing camera, and a 4000 mAh battery. The Porsche Design Mate 9 offers a curved 5.5-inch QHD version of the regular Mate 9’s 5.9-inch display. The Porsche Design variant also has 6GB of RAM compared to 4GB for the Mate 9, and a whopping 256GB of onboard storage versus 64GB for the standard Mate 9.
Aside from those big hardware changes, the other other minor differences in the Porsche Design Mate 9 are in its software. Its on-screen keys are replaced by “back” and “recent apps” keys on each side of the home button in the Porsche Design version. There are also some UI changes for this phone’s high-res display, a handy dark display mode and finally some Porsche Design themes for people who really want to make sure people know they have lots of money.
Shipments of the Porsche Design Mate 9 are scheduled to begin on Tuesday, Jan. 31. There’s no word on exactly how many units of this phone will be available before they are all sold out, but since this is supposed to be a limited edition variant, it’s likely to sell out very quickly, even at this high of a price point. Will you get a second mortgage on your house to get this phone? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

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

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
