Check out the Nokia 2, a budget phone with a monster battery

19 hours ago

HMD Global is slowly building up its portfolio of stock-Android-running smartphones. In addition to the trio of mid-rangers (Nokia 3, 5, and 6) it launched at MWC, the company bolstered its high-end with the Nokia 8, and now the other side of spectrum is getting some attention.

Just leaked by Evan Blass, the Nokia 2 looks… well, like a generic cheap phone. If you have a visceral hate of bezels, you’ll probably want to close this post and move on, but design is hardly the point here.

Blass didn’t share any details about the Nokia 2, but we can make some educated guesses based on some other clues we’ve got about the phone.

First, you might have noticed that the phones in the leaked renders show October 5 as the date. Dates in renders are often set to match the launch time, but this could be an old render and there’s still time for things to change.

Second, the Nokia 3could give us a rough idea of what to expect from its smaller sibling. The Nokia 3 is already very budget-friendly – it features a 5-inch 720p screen, 2GB of RAM, a MediaTek processor, and an 8MP rear camera, all for just $150. The Nokia 2 will probably have a smaller screen, but a roughly similar processing package, and a less fancy, plastic build.

Finally, the recent FCC certification of the Nokia 2 reveals that the phone could shine in at least one area – battery life. The docs show a monstrous battery of 4,000 mAh. That’s 30 percent more than the top of the range Nokia 8, and definitely an unusual spec for a budget-minded phone.

New carp species to extend scale of GM produce

  New carp species to extend scale of GM produce 2017-09-14 06:42:38 Scientists say the development will provide more resources and help to strengthen food security, as Zhang Zhihao reports. While giant genetically modified Chinese carp may leap onto the nation's dinner tables in about two years, scientists are urging that the promotion of GM fish should be conducted slowly and meticulously to avoid a public pushback. The development of GM fish will have great economic value, protect national food security and help build sustainable agriculture, according to Wang Yaping, a researcher at the Chi-nese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Hydrobiology, speaking in an exclusive inter-view with China Daily. In early August, Canadian supermarkets became the first in the world to sell a fast-grow-ing GM salmon developed by AquaBounty Technologies, a biotech company in the US. However, few people realize that in 1983 China was the first country to produce transgenic fish calle...

The big new addition is Google Assistant — or rather, a dedicated button on the headphones that triggers the Google Assistant. The new branding is simply QC 35 II, and according to Google you set them up as usual via Bluetooth and then follow some instructions built into the Google Assistant app on either an Android phone (running Marshmallow or above) or an iPhone. Once that’s done, you’ll hold down the new button that’s on the right ear cup to trigger the Google Assistant. Google says that it can do most things the Assistant can do on your phone — read messages, play music or news, and of course call people. But the Assistant has slightly different capabilities in every place it appears, so it may be th...
