iPhone 7 and Apple Watch

What if the iPhone 7 merged with the Apple Watch?

Will we all soon bow before the digital crown? This wacky iPhone 7 concept sure thinks so.

It was only a matter of time before the Apple Watch inspired some far-out concept videos for new Apple products the faithful would like to see. Strangely, the arrival of the company's first signature wearable has inspired the below bizarre take on an iPhone 7 that borrows the watch's novel dial, called the "digital crown" by Apple.

The iPhone concept from designer Antonio De Rosa, who has turned at least one of his flights of fancy into a real product, imagines a fully upgraded iPhone 7 that incorporates the dial from the Apple Watch, relocating Touch ID and the home button to the front of the dial.
The space once occupied by the home button is replaced by a smaller bezel and a new "Sense Button" that captures gestures and movements for more personalized control.
It remains to be seen if the digital crown will compel or confuse Apple Watch owners as a new means of user input. And if it is a hit, would it make sense for Apple to bring it over to the iPhone? The Sense Button actually seems less likely as it would seem to come up against Apple's chief directive of simplicity.
What do you think? Check out the video and let us know in the comments below if you've been longing for a dial interface to return to an iDevice ever since that nifty wheel was cut from the iPod.

Voice Calling Test

Which voice calling app uses the most data per minute? We tested the top 10 Free voice call apps, which use data to place calls, can offer a cheaper way to keep in contact with friends abroad and come to the rescue when you’ve used up your monthly minute quota. However, with multi-gigabyte data plans still often coming at a premium price, the busiest chatters out there could soon eat into their monthly allowance using voice over data calls. To shed some light on the issue, we’ve gone back over our list of  10 free call apps  to investigate just how much data these apps end up consuming. In the list you’ll find popular apps such as Hangouts, Skype, WhatApp and Viber, as well as regional favourites including Line and Nimbuzz. The test method For our test, we subjected each of these 10 apps to three separate one minute calls and recorded the amount of data used by the app after each call. These three totals were then averaged together to produce the result. Bo...

Nexus

Huawei and Google reportedly releasing a Nexus phone this fall This year, we may see a first for Google’s line of Nexus Android phones: a Chinese manufacturer.  The Information  reports that Huawei is in line to produce the device, which is said to be planned for fall. It’s not the first we’ve heard of the possibility; IBT said last month that the Huawei Nexus phone was coming, citing an employee at the company’s UK branch, while  Android Police  published a tentative rumor in May suggesting that there would be two Nexus phones this year — a 5.7-inch Huawei device and a 5.2-inch phone from LG. The relationship between Google and Huawei could be mutually beneficial beyond the phone’s co-development.  The Information  claims that talks are in progress for Huawei to help Google bring a mobile app store to China, where government regulations have restricted the search giant from conducting much business of note. HUAWEI COULD HEL...
