iPhone 7 Plus vs Google Pixel speed tests: Closer, but Android was still crushed in the end and other top stories.

  • iPhone 7 Plus vs Google Pixel speed tests: Closer, but Android was still crushed in the end

    Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 may be toast — literally and figuratively — but Android fans have a new pair of flagship phones to lust after this holiday season. Google’s first ever “made by Google” smartphones pack cutting-edge specs into a somewhat unique design, giving shoppers what most early reviewers believe to be a viable alternative to Apple’s iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus.

    The DeanBeat: Nintendo aims for the gaps in the game business with the Switch
    The Nintendo Switch revelation video was only three minutes long, but it gave us all a lot to talk about. To me, it seemed like Nintendo was going after the gaps in the game business and the seams between product categories and audiences. It has a modular design for the console and the controller, which allows it to be adapted to new use cases. It was no surprise that the company went with a hybrid home console and portable tablet because that is part of the original vision that it failed to ex..
