Windows 10 update pushed back for some Windows phones


Microsoft’s Windows 10 Anniversary Update started rolling out for Windows Phones a few weeks ago, but not all devices received it OTA. The HP Elite X3 for one hasn’t received the Update yet, and now we’ve just been notified that the Vaio Phone Biz has had its update pushed back as well.

Citing issues with Continuum, Vaio confirms on its official website that the Windows 10 Mobile Anniversary Update has been postponed due to Continuum not working with displays of “specific resolutions”.

Continuum for Phones is one of the major features of Microsoft’s Windows 10 Mobile operating system and one of the selling points of the business-focused devices pushed by OEMs.

Lenovo finally unveils its first Windows 10 Mobile phone


It was a little over two years ago when Lenovo announced it will release a phone running Windows Phone 8.1 by the end of 2014. Even though that self-given deadline came and passed, it is better late than never that Lenovo finally announced the SoftBank 503LV, reports MSPoweruser.

Made in partnership with Japanese technology conglomerate SoftBank, the phone features a 5-inch, 1,280 x 720 resolution display, with a 5-megapixel camera sitting above and an 8MP shooter with LED flash found around back. The only hardware buttons you will find are the power and volume buttons, as the SoftBank 503LV, similar to other Windows 10 Mobile phones, feature software keys.

Under the hood, a 1.5GHz octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 617 — the same chipset that powers the Moto G4, Moto G4 Plus, and HTC One A9, just to name a few — and 3GB RAM power the phone, with a rather meager 2,250mAh battery keeping the lights on. Thanks to the processing package, the SoftBank 503LV supports Windows Continuum, which turns the phone into a pseudo-PC. Furthermore, you can expand upon the 32GB of native storage by up to an additional 128GB through the MicroSD card slot.

Finally, the SoftBank 503LV runs Windows 10 Mobile, though it is unknown whether the phone supports Windows Hello, which lets you unlock your phone using your eyes.

Windows 10-powered NuAns Neo to be available outside of Japan starting today

Inline with the previously revealed June-end launch time frame, the Windows 10-powered NuAns Neo will be available for purchase in select countries starting today. This was announced by NuAns, the company behind Neo, in a press release.

For those who aren't in the know, the selling point of Neo is that it features TWOTONE interchangeable covers for its back. Its spec sheet reads Snapdragon 617 SoC, 5-inch HD display, 2GB/16GB memory configuration, 13MP/5MP camera combo, and 3,350mAh battery. The device features a USB Type-C port, as well as offers support for Continuum.
