Said to be ‘shatterproof,’ this device is expected to be launched this December at an equivalent price of CNY 4000, according to a new leak. That’s around $630 or Rs 41800 in terms of US dollars and Indian rupees, which definitely puts it in the big league. The Moto X Force moreover, also has the specs to justify that high retail value.

Oppo may be prepping to launch its metal-clad R7 (and the R7 Plus?) in India by early September, going by the press invite which has made its way into our inbox. Oppo says it’s hosting an event next week, but has failed to name the device to be unveiled. As you can see in the image posted below, the invitation has the number ‘7’ emblazoned on it along with the words ‘Oppo India invites you to redefine style with metal.’ Additionally, it also reveals that the event is scheduled for 11am on September 4.

So the invitation in question might be referring to one of the them or the pair. They could be priced for the Indian market at...

Hate your finicky Wi-Fi router? Google does too, apparently. Google announced Tuesday that it's making a Wi-Fi router called OnHub, which is designed to alleviate the typical frustrations of buggy routers. It is partnering with TP-Link for the $199 router, available for immediate preorder. Google's preorder page already lists it as out of stock. In terms of design, the OnHub doesn't really look like any router before it. It eschews the usual antennas, wires and blinking lights for a large cylindrical shape with just one large light at the top. Google's cylindrical OnHub router. IMAGE: GOOGLE Google thinks there are benefits to this design: In its announcement post, it explains many people keep unsightly routers hidden away under desks and behind TVs where they don't work as well.  If the router is more pleasing to the eye, Google says, people will be more likely to keep it out in the open. A win-win. Within the cy...
