Mondaine Helvetica Regular hybrid smartwatch (Source: Wareable)

Mondaine Helvetica Regular hybrid smartwatch coming later this week

The Mondaine Helvetica Regular has just been unveiled in Basel and will hit the market by the end of the month for a price of around US$640. Compared to its predecessor, it features a smaller case and can receive notifications. Since it is not a regular smartwatch and has a limited set of features, the battery lasts for about two years.

Facebook has been swiping call and text data from Android users for years

A teardown of Facebook's user data archive has revealed the fact that the company collects private user data including well-detailed call logs and text metadata. The company has been involved in a number of cases pertaining to privacy issues, and this is just another icing on the cake.

OnePlus will no longer sell the OnePlus 5T in North America

OnePlus has announced that it will no longer sell the OnePlus 5T in North America. The 5T was released in November, just four months ago, so this could go down as the shortest sales cycle of any device ever. It, of course, also means that we’re close to the release of the OnePlus 6.

Oppo F7 officially announced

Even though it features the infamous iPhone X upper display notch, the Oppo F7 is actually a solid mid-range selfie phone. It is powered by the octa-core MediaTek Helio P60 SoC and it comes in 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage and 6 GB + 128 GB variants. The selfie cam benefits from a 25 MP sensor and a multitude of modes, while the rear cam only gets a 16 MP sensor with LED flash.

Huawei spotted shamelessly advertising in front of an Apple store

Huawei deployed tall trucks conveniently parked in front of Apple and Samsung stores to inform users about the P20 reveal on 3/27. While the campaign is a borderline marketing stunt designed to draw attention and awareness, the spectacle is amusing nonetheless. The P20 will supposedly have some of the best cameras in the market.
