Apple sold fewer than 1 million iPhones in India in the first half of 2018: report

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 11:46 AM PDT

Apple has traditionally had trouble with sales in India. While the company started manufacturing iPhones in the country to lower the price locally, it seems that it has a long road ahead of it, according to a report from Bloomberg: it's sold fewer than a million devices in the first half of 2018.

Bloomberg reports that three Apple sales executives left the company as it restructures its operations there. It only has a 2 percent marketshare in India, and in 2017, it sold 3.2 million iPhones, according to a report by Counterpoint Research. But those sales appear to have slowed: the same report estimates that Apple has moved "fewer than a million devices," and even with strong sales, it'll have trouble catching up to last year's numbers.

Motorola is launching an Android Oreo Go version of its E5 Play phone

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 10:00 AM PDT

Motorola only announced its new Moto E5 Play and E5 Plus in April, but this week the company unveiled a new version of that E5 Play that'll run Android Oreo Go edition. It'll include fewer pre-installed apps, as well as apps that are optimized to run on devices with less storage. It's only available in the UK starting on July 14th and starts at £69 for pre-pay or £89 for SIM-only. (That's between $91 and $117.) This is similar pricing to the E5 Play in the US currently.

The E5 Play is still one of the first Go devices. The first Go phone, the Alcatel 1X, launched in February. Nokia and ZTE also developed Go phones. All these phones are designed to create a more pleasant budget phone experience. The E5 includes some more premium features,...

Watch the first teaser for Doctor Who’s next season

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 09:06 AM PDT

During today's World Cup march, the BBC released its first teaser for its upcoming 11th season of its science fiction show Doctor Who, which will feature actress Jodie Whittaker as the Thirteenth Doctor.

The trailer shows off only a brief glimpse of Whittaker's Doctor, who appears right at the end of the teaser. She is the first woman to play the role of Doctor, taking over for Peter Capaldi, who portrayed the Twelfth Doctor from 2014 to 2017. Fans of the show got their first glimpse of her during last year's Christmas special, and her casting represents a new era for the show as Chris Chibnall (creator of the acclaimed crime drama Broadchurch) took over for Steven Moffat, the show's long-time showrunner. The season is expected to...

The company that designs Ferraris is making a $2 million electric hypercar

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 09:00 AM PDT

It's not a rational or responsible desire to dream of expensive looking sports cars. But still, the 20th century image of a curvaceous four-wheeled form continues to foster a culture of envy. The high price tag attached to these cars that made them a symbol of aspiration, greed, and everything in between, has endured, as the performance numbers and prices on supercar reach astronomical seven-figure levels. What has been lacking in the rare European supercar category are cars powered by electric powertrains. But the days of the rude gasoline-inhaling performance car may be dwindling.

Pininfarina is the newest Italiano brand to attach itself to the fast-growing list of luxury EV makers, but among the cult of Ferrari enthusiasts,...

Twitter suspended Guccifer 2.0 and DC Leaks’ accounts

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 08:15 AM PDT

Twitter has suspended two prominent accounts linked to the 2016 hack on the Democratic National Committee, Guccifer 2.0 and DC Leaks. The move comes after the Justice Department handed down 12 indictments against 12 Russian intelligence agents, which specifically named the accounts as part of the country's propaganda efforts during the 2016 presidential election.

A Twitter spokesperson told the San Diego Union Tribute that the accounts were suspended for being "connected to a network of accounts previously suspended for operating in violation of our rules." The Justice Department indictments allege that both accounts acted as fronts for agents in Russia's Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU), and were responsible for conducting...

Nintendo Labo contest winners include a Zelda piano and a solar-powered accordion

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 08:00 AM PDT

Last month, Nintendo announced a contest that tasked fans with creating musical instruments and games out of its Labo kit. Today, the Japanese developer revealed the winners of the contest, and, naturally, Nintendo fans went all out.

Released in April 2018, the Nintendo Labo is aimed at children to teach concepts such as programming and engineering. Players take kits to build things such as cardboard robots and toy fishing rods, though the Labo can also be used for experiments and new creations.

Take the Labo piano decked out with Zelda decorations up top, for example. Not only do the decorations include a Master Sword, but there are also tiny Koroks hiding in the landscape as well. Its creator, Chris Brazzell, says that various pieces...

The key to creating gorgeous, glitchy YouTube images: anticipation and deletion

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 07:00 AM PDT

When I was younger, I had a soccer coach who stressed the importance of anticipation. "An-tiiii-ciiiiiii-PAY-shun," he'd yell at us, while we were diving around for the ball. If we did it right, he promised, we'd be able to do in soccer what Neo does in The Matrix — not, like, stop bullets, but be in the right place at the right time to stop an attack on our goal. I wasn't too great at it, at least not at first.

But the lesson stuck. I can hear coach's voice even now, when I navigate the crush of travelers during New York City's all-too-frequent rush hours. This is all to say that prediction is key; it's the difference between getting the ball in the back of the net and whiffing entirely, the gap between getting a seat on a crowded...

Ninebot built a kit that converts Segways into go-karts

Posted: 15 Jul 2018 06:00 AM PDT

Now that hoverboards are quickly becoming toys of the past, it seems like Segway-Ninebot is busy reinventing the wheel on rideables. After Segway introduced e-skates last month, Ninebot (Segway's parent company) is reportedly preparing to show off a new kit that attaches to its scooters to convert them into drivable go-karts.

According to a report by Abacus News, Ninebot teased the promotional photos on Weibo this week. The kit appears to add seating, brakes, front bumper, steering wheel, and rear wheels to a Segway miniPRO. The seat can apparently be adjusted to fit the driver's height, with photos showing both an adult and a child driving the retrofitted Segway. The company hasn't offered any further information on price and...
