[ad_1] Samsung was supposed to start shipping the Fold in late April until the early access devices distributed to reviewers showed serious issues. Some of them stemmed from reviewers peeling off a layer that’s supposed to protect the screen, while other were due to dirt lodging into the gaps in its hinge. iFixit also called […]

AT&T’s Galaxy S10 5G arrives June 17th, but only for business
[ad_1] Service starts at $90 per month for a Business Unlimited Preferred plan with 20GB of data tethering. AT&T was fairly frank about the reason for the limited release when Engadget reached out. This is for corporate users “seeking to be on the bleeding edge,” and it promised to offer new devices “as the ecosystem […]
Streaming ‘Dune’ TV series will accompany the new movie
[ad_1] There’s no set release date for The Sisterhood or any initial cast choices, although it’s clearly not going to make the WarnerMedia service’s late 2019 debut. The series could be a coup for WarnerMedia. While it has been lining up original shows, the AT&T-owned media behemoth has so far talked mostly about taking advantage […]
AT&T’s streaming bundle with HBO could start at $16
[ad_1] Still, other viewers may balk at having to pay for yet another streaming service, especially considering that AT&T’s package will be one of the more expensive streaming services on the market when it launches next March. It’ll cost more than ad-free Hulu ($11.99/month) or Netflix’s most popular plan ($12.99/month). Even Disney’s soon-to-be launched streaming […]
US carriers say they’ve stopped selling location data
[ad_1] To no one’s surprise, the carriers maintained that their sales only allowed specific uses. AT&T’s terms required “approved use cases” and deletion of info, while Verizon said it had a “detailed process” for clearing and screening aggregators’ customers. Sprint was less specific, but said it allowed aggregators to hold on to data for long […]
AT&T will pull shows like ‘Friends’ from streaming rivals
[ad_1] Stephenson didn’t name specific shows that would make the leap, although it’s not hard to see likely candidates. Netflix’s extended Friends deal only lasts through 2019, while WarnerMedia’s service is expected to debut in beta by late 2019. Stephenson also named shows like Big Bang Theory and Seinfeld as strong suits. This was somewhat […]
AT&T says it’s the first US network to reach 2Gbps speeds on 5G
[ad_1] If you could sustain that performance, you’d download a two-hour “HD” movie in the space of ten seconds, AT&T claimed. However, the operative term is “if.” As we witnessed first-hand with our tests on Verizon’s network (disclaimer: that’s our parent company), reaching those speeds is currently unlikely with any provider. You need a millimeter […]
AT&T’s fake 5GE icon is available in the Android Open Source Project
[ad_1] AT&T introduced the 5GE (5G Evolution) in January on Samsung’s Galaxy S8 Active and LG’s V30. But as true 5G networks are still being tested, 5GE really indicates 4G LTE-Advanced — a mix of 4G LTE plus technologies like 4×4 MIMO antennas, 256 QAM and carrier aggregation. AT&T’s competitors were quick to mock and […]
Samsung’s strange, gigantic Galaxy View is ready for round two
[ad_1] This will be a resolutely middle-of-the-road device outside of its dimensions. AT&T tells Engadget the View 2 will pack a mid-tier 1.6GHz Exynos 7884 eight-core chip, 3GB of RAM, a front-facing 5-megapixel camera and 64GB of expandable storage. You will get immersive Dolby Atmos audio, though, and the size allows for a hefty 12,000mAh […]
AT&T and Sprint settle lawsuit over faux 5G branding
[ad_1] Sprint’s lawsuit sought an injunction to prevent AT&T from using 5GE tags on its devices and advertising — AT&T phones in areas with upgraded 4G or 5G Evolution coverage show 5GE when their data connections are switched on. According to Dallas Business Journal, though, the carrier will still be able to continue its 5G […]
