Photos of Meizu’s Star Trek edition smartphone leak

-


Star Trek has certainly enjoyed its 50th anniversary: the latest film was highly successful and the announcement of the all new TV series Star Trek: Discovery was met with much enthusiasm. Well, there’s even more good news for all the Trekkies out there. If you’re a fan of Star Trek, you’d be pleased to know that Meizu is preparing to launch a Star Trek themed version of the Meizu m3e in the coming weeks.


We’ve already seen some sci-fi or superhero themed phones before: from Samsung Galaxy phones with a twist of The Avengers to the Batman themed Nokia Lumia, special limited editions are a good way for manufacturers to promote their devices. Now it seems like Meizu will be joining in on the fun soon. As you can see from the images above, the upcoming smartphone from Meizu will have the Starfleet insignia on its back. It looks like the software will also see some intergalactic changes.


 
It’s likely that this limited edition Star Trek themed phone will share the same specs as the regular Meizu m3e. To refresh your memory, the m3e was released earlier this month with mid-ranger specs. It’s a very slim, premium-looking device made of aluminum. On the front are a 5MP selfie shooter with f/2.0 aperture and a 5.5-inch Full HD display; on the back, we have a 13MP camera with f/2.2 aperture. Under the hood is the octa-core MediaTek Helio P10 chipset, coupled with 3GB of RAM. All this is powered by a 3,100mAh battery, which should last you a full day.



The Star Trek edition of the Meizu m3e is said to launch exclusively in China on September 2nd. Although the phone itself won’t be easy to get your hands on if you are outside China, we imagine the Star Trek themed UI shouldn’t be too hard to import to other devices. If you’re a Trekkie in China, however, the phone’s release date should coincide with the release date of Star Trek Beyond, so you can go watch the film and then go right ahead and grab yourself a Starfleet smartphone!

Live long and prosper, my friends.

Google is pushing out an updated version of its contacts management app, bringing some of the features available in the web version to the Android app. The v 1.5 update reorganizes the user interface of Google Contacts. Instead of the two tabs – all and favorites – the app now just displays your entire contact list, with a sidebar menu available via the hamburger button on the left. Opening that up reveals a new section for managing duplicate contacts. That’s a feature that was present on the web app of Contacts , but the process was more convoluted on the Android app. You can now also add labels to your contacts, making it easy to organize large contact lists based on groups, for things like family, work, or school. That’s another feature that was present on the web app and it’s now finally making the jump to the Android app, a place where it’s actually more likely to be used. Google Contacts 1.5 is currently rolling out to all users, so it should land on your

LG Display used CES 2018 in Las Vegas to officially unveil its new OLED displays - one of them being a 65-inch 4K flexible screen that can be rolled like a newspaper. The other is an 88” 8K OLED panel that we told you about last week. The flexibility of the 65” OLED display makes it easier to transport or store in the corner. Its small size allows for better space utilization, meaning you can take the TV anytime, anywhere and “enjoy bright, high-resolution content”. LG Display will also showcase its latest upgrades of the IPS technology. The panels now have IPS nano-color, “which expresses rich colors using nanoscale high-color reproduction particles, and IPS technology, which increases the transmittance and reduces the intensity of light reflected on the panel.”, said the company in a press release.
