Superscreen will offer a cheap tablet-sized display for your smartphone


As a concept, people love the larger display that a tablet has over a smartphone. However, some people simply don’t want to pay extra money for a second device that just has a larger screen. Today, a company called Transcendent Designs has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise money for a device called Superscreen. It will offer a larger and high-resolution screen that links to your smartphone and displays its content, but without the high price of purchasing a separate tablet.
Superscreen will work by purchasing the display, and then downloading a special app for iOS and Android on your smartphone. The app will wirelessly mirror the content of your smartphone on Superscreen with that app. Superscreen itself will have a 9.52-inch 2560 x 1600 display, along with 4GB of RAM and an unnamed quad-core processor running at 2GHz. It also has a 5MP rear camera, a 2MP front-facing camera, a 6,000mAh battery and even 16GB of storage, although most of it is not accessible to the owner.
As of the time of this writing, the Superscreen Kickstarter campaign has already raised the $50,000 it had set as its base goal just seven hours after it began, with 29 days to go. If you move fast enough, you can get an “early bird” price of $99 for one Superscreen, which is much lower than the $299 price tag that the product will have when it officially launches sometime in September. The display will come in black or white colors.
So, is it worth it? There are certainly a lot of cheap Android tablets on the market that offer a larger display at prices that are about as low as the Superscreen “early bird” price tag. It’s up to you if you want to mirror your smartphone content on a “dumb” display like Superscreen, or if you just want to spend your money on an actual tablet that doesn’t need a smartphone to work.

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.

We’ve sifted through all of the rumors and information we can find to compile everything we know —...

Besides SamMobile, the confirmation also comes from  some Redditors  who got the update in Germany just a few hours back. The same Reddit users also mention that Google Pay remains broken even after installing this final Android 10 firmware, although it wasn’t immediately clear how widespread t...
