HTC One A9 Enable battery saver mode to squeeze out more life Tips & tricks

HTC One A9 Enable battery saver mode to squeeze out more life Tips & tricks Enable battery saver mode to squeeze out more life One of the bad things about the HTC One A9 is that is has a pretty small battery. Should you find yourself in that precarious situation where no outlet is nearby and your power is dwindling, you have some options. As with all Android Marshmallow devices, the One A9 comes with a built-in battery saver mode. It will trigger automatically when your phone drops down to 15%, but it can be manually enabled by navigating to  Settings > Power  and flipping  Power saver  to the On position. If you need even more extra juice, an Ultra power saving mode can be enabled using the same process. This will put the phone in an extreme power saving mode. You will only have access to a select few apps, and the theme will be switched to dark to conserve battery. Tags:   None

New Galaxy Note7 teaser reconfirms curved display, reveals ability to write on it

New Galaxy Note7 teaser reconfirms curved display, reveals ability to write on it Today, 12:42 PM We've already had reports and leaks revealing that the next Galaxy Note will be Note7, and it will feature a curved display (dual-edge screen to be precise). Now, a new teaser alleged to be of the device has surfaced online confirming once again the Note7 moniker as well as edged display. The teaser says, "Write on the edge of something great." This, coupled with the position of the stylus in the image, possibly indicates that the new Note will allow users to write on the edged display. Adding weight to this possibility is the fact that the company recently patented a similar feature. There's currently no way to verify the authenticity of the teaser image, so - needless to say - take it with a pinch of salt.

Prior to that, the phone was spotted on India's import/export tracking website Zauba. Sadly, pricing and availability details of the Samsung SM-A910F aren't yet known. Also not known are the markets that'll get it, although Europe seems to be on list as a polish retailer has reportedly already started accepting pre-orders for the device.

The Moto Z is crazy thin, at just 5.2mm, while the Moto Z Force is shatter-proof. That's just the start though. Moto Z The two Moto's support snap-on accessories, which attach to their backs with magnets and offer additional functionality - a speaker system, a battery back, a pico-projector, or just simple shells - taking the LG G5's modular concept to the next level.
