- JVC’s UX-VJ3 and UX-VJ5 speaker docks play (elegant) host to iPad and iPhone
There’s not much you can do to spice up speaker docks at this point — they’re pretty much old hat. But what if that dock allowed you to plug in your iPad and iPhone, or iPod simultaneously? Ah, now we have your attention. Slated to hit the land that begot Kurosawa in mid-summer, the JVC UX-VJ3 and UX-VJ5 make their iOS connectivity a folie à deux. Sporting an AM / FM tuner, video out and a PC input, these sleek connectors don’t appear to part much from the typical feature set. It’s the VJ5 that’s the real standout here, with its six apartment-blending color options, USB port and ability to rip MP3s from a built-in CD drive. Sound swanky enough for you? We thought so, but with no announcement on North American availability, lusting audiophiles on these shores have a bit of a wait ahead of them. Check the source to get a glimpse of these iOS displays in their full color spectrum.

JVC | Email this | Comments - ViewSonic ViewPad 7x rebranded as Camangi Mangrove 7, lands in Japan mid-August
One of the front-runners for the title of the world’s first 7-inch Honeycomb tablet finally has a release date, and a prospective price, but it might not make it out of the gate as the ViewSonic ViewPad 7x. No, this Tegra 2-powered slate has been rebranded as the Camangi Mangrove 7 for a mid-August Japanese release, sporting an estimated retail price of 49,800 yen (about $615). Aside form the name, not much is new here, but you can expect 8GB of storage and 1GB of DDR2 RAM. Here’s hoping the Mangrove 7 outperforms Camangi’s last 7-inch affair. Unfortunately, there’s still no word on when the ViewPad 7x will make its American debut, or how much it will cost when it arrives, but we’ll keep you posted.

How’s hog-tying search terms sound as an alternative to plain old cut and paste? Well, according to Microsoft, it sounds mighty fine. The software giant just announced Lasso, a new touch-friendly search tool for the Bing iPad app that allows you to rope in your internet queries by circling a word or phrase. Once you’ve drawn the circle, Bing automatically generates a search using the selected words. No word on how this will work out for us chubby-fingered searchers, but if you’ve given it a go ’round the ole corral, let us know how it’s treating you in the comments.

Xiaomi Mi 6 receives its first Android Pie beta
Last month Xiaomi issued an official timeline for rolling out Android 9 Pie to some of its devices, and the Mi 6 was on the list, with a planned release of a beta Pie build in the second quarter of this year. Well, here we are in the second quarter, and unsurprisingly it's now out. Note that this is a beta, and as such is only a good idea to install on a phone that isn't your daily driver. You also need to be okay with the possible presence of bugs, things being broken, that sort of thing. For the general public, while this isn't useful per se, it's good as a confirmation that...
Qualcomm and Samsung will supply Apple with 5G modems in 2020
Shortly after news broke about Intel exiting the 5G modem business, Apple was forced to settle with Qualcomm and use its chips for its future iPhones. But no one said anything about Samsung being the second supplier for the Cupertino-based company. According to a report from Ming-Chi Kuo, an Apple analyst, the company will look for a second supplier and it will most likely be Samsung. This will give the company some leverage when negotiating prices and also lower its dependence on a single supplier. So in 2020, we can expect iPhones to ship with Qualcomm and Samsung chips. This also...
