- ARMv8 detailed: 64-bit architecture, AppliedMicro first in line
Thought Windows on ARM was snazzy? Have a gander at this. The outfit’s forthcoming ARMv8 architecture, the first ARM architecture to include a 64-bit instruction set, has just been detailed, with a goal to expand the reach of ARM processor-based solutions “into consumer and enterprise applications where extended virtual addressing and 64-bit data processing are required.” The ARMv8 architecture consists of two main execution states — AArch64 and AArch32 — and we’re apt to see the real benefits hit high-end servers first. The ARMv8 architecture specifications are available now to partners under license, with the company planning to disclose processors based on ARMv8 during 2012, with consumer and enterprise prototype systems expected in 2014. Head on past the break for ARM’s take, or meander to the source links for AppliedMicro’s gloating.

AppliedMicro (1), (2), (3) | Email this | Comments - Growing up Geek: Dave Altavilla
Welcome to Growing Up Geek, an ongoing feature where we take a look back at our youth and tell stories of growing up to be the nerds that we are. Today, we have the Editor in Chief of HotHardware, Dave Altavilla.
Growing up on Cape Cod, Massachusetts has its pluses and minuses. Certainly, in the summer time, being so close to the seaside made for fantastic boyhood memories at the beach, but in the off season you need to find ways to keep yourself busy. My fascination with technology and computers began with an Atari 2600. Then it was called a “Video Computer System,” but now we all know better. That joystick marked it much more akin to a console, but don’t hold that against me. Regardless, many hours were logged in on the Atari in scenic South Yarmouth, at least when it wasn’t a beach day or if Dad wasn’t heading down to the harbor.

- The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 5PM ET!
Nokia, Nokia. Who’s there? Lumia. Lumia who? Stay tuned this afternoon to learn the answer, even though we’re not promising the funniest punchline in the world. What we can promise you, however, is in-depth coverage of Nokia World 2011 and everything else that happened in the wireless industry over the past week. Each week seems to be as crazy as the last, which always makes for an entertainment podcast. Special guest Steve Litchfield and Host Myriam Joire are delivering the rants in a British accent, and co-host Brad Molen may toss out a beef or two in his own native western US dialect. Sadly, it’s the same dialect he uses every week. Regardless, reconvene here at 5PM ET (2PM PT, 10PM UK)!Continue reading The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 5PM ET!

Week 16 in review: All about the Galaxy Fold, OnePlus 7/7 Pro, Pixel 3a/3a XL
Welcome to your recap of the week's hottest tech stories. Week 16 of the year marked the first live encounters with the Galaxy Fold across the web (and here at GSMArena HQ) and it didn't take long for the first issues to arise. Several of the early units' displays malfunctioned and while removing the protective layer on top of the screen was the explanation for some of them, other seemingly were just defective. Samsung issued a statement that it will look into the display issues and that users are not to remove the protective layer and that this would be made clear to buyers in the...
Weekly poll: rear vs. selfie camera, which is more important?
This week we saw the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G claim the title of "Best selfie camera", at least according to DxOMark. The phone's rear camera matched the score of the Huawei P30 Pro, which previously ruled alone. This along with the results from last week's poll got us wondering about front and rear cameras - which one is more important to you? We're well past the era when phones had only one camera (and it was on the back), yet for one reason or another the rear camera is still treated as more important and gets the better hardware. There are exceptions, for example, the Realme U1, has a...
Samsung Galaxy S10e vs. Apple iPhone XR
Samsung Galaxy Fold in for review
When we received an invitation to give the Samsung Galaxy Fold a try, we immediately jumped the plane and headed to Samsung's office. There, an Astro Blue unit was waiting for us, and we already shared our initial impressions of the device. Now, however, we have the phone at HQ and we are eager to put it through its paces and see where it fits in the bigger picture. The first thing you see when you open the box is the majestic 4:3 OLED screen in an unfolded manner. It is pretty much a standard 7.3" tablet which, thanks to Samsung, you can now put comfortably in your pocket. And when it...
Weekly poll results: Oppo Reno 10x zoom edges out Samsung Galaxy A80
The Oppo Reno 10x zoom prevailed in last week's poll, beating the Samsung Galaxy A80 by a healthy margin. The rivalry between these two goes beyond selfie camera vs. rear camera, though these are clearly major parts of the phones' identities. The Oppo Reno 10x zoom will be only the second phone on the market to deliver a 160mm telephoto lens (same focal length as the P30 Pro, despite the possible confusion caused by the "x zoom" rating). Plus, people have more faith in the reliability of the shark fin pop-up selfie camera. A80's 48MP camera is used for selfies and normal photos ...
