The Mobile World Congress (MWC) is the biggest annual tech conference in the world that focuses on all things mobile. Like last year, this year’s event will take place in the beautiful city of Barcelona in Spain, and will host more than 250 tech companies and almost 800 wireless carriers. So what can we expect to find in this year’s MWC? Here is the rundown.
Mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) TextNow Wireless presents a couple of treats for its customers. Firstly, the wireless carrier is now selling one of Samsung’s flagship devices, the Galaxy S6 Edge, for a price of only $299.99 refurbished. And secondly, the mobile service provider is also launching its free international calling service.
According to the world’s most popular social media platform, it is already exploring a way in which mobile users can receive, read, and reply to their SMS driven conversations within the Facebook Messenger app for smartphones and tablet devices. If this feature is deployed widely, it will be made optional to users, basically serving as a new option especially for those who want to try something other than their default text messaging application, and consequently, increase usage time on Facebook Messenger.
Good news, indeed, for users of Instagram! The social media giant has revealed that it now has support for use of multiple accounts, especially from within the confines of its mobile app without ever needing to sign out of one’s account. This feature is now made available starting with version 7.15 of the Instagram mobile app for both the Android and iOS mobile operating systems. Users can create a maximum of five extra accounts, and be able to manage all of them within a Instagram environment.
As Microsoft can attest, challenging Google’s Android and Apple’s iOS in the world of mobile operating systems is no walk in the park. For Mozilla, it knew that its Firefox OS only had a slim chance of becoming as successful as Android or iOS. And it did not help that growth has been very, very slow in the last twelve months. When Mozilla finally ceded defeat by last week, the company itself kind of expected it.
Do you sometimes feel like you absolutely can not last thirty minutes without checking your mobile phone? Do you feel so much anxiety if you leave your smartphone behind? Do you feel that constant itch to always check your Galaxy handset for the latest email, social media post, or Instagram image?
In December of last year, Samsungfiled a request with the United States Supreme Court, urging America’s highest court to examine and review the rulings made in the series of patent violation cases that Apple had brought against the Sou
We live in an increasingly mobile phone driven world, and it certainly shows. Go to the nearest coffee shop and rarely will you see any person not clutching a mobile phone, making or taking calls, texting somebody, checking their Facebook or Twitter feed, watching a YouTube video, or listening to Spotify. That should be expected if you are living in developed countries, especially Western nations like the United States or the United Kingdom. However, in some developing countries, owning a mobile phone is still considered a luxury.
It is kind of like in the movie Minority Report. But instead of waving your hands in front of a giant screen, you are doing it using your fingers over the display screen of your iPhone or iPad. Yup, it sounds more like science fiction at the moment, but Apple actually has a new patent that proposes exactly that.
As far as mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) go, US Mobile is not even that popular. Sure, it uses T-Mobile’s network in delivering its mobile phone services, but other than that, many would think of the wireless carrier something that is not a household name. Well, this little MVNO just became the first ever wireless carrier in the United States to sell smartphones produced by Chinese phone makers Xiaomi and Meizu.
