Huawei Matebook X Pro (Complete Walkthrough) (Video)

Today Huawei launched a couple of devices with the most intriguing to me is the sequel to a laptop of theirs that I gave a glowing review to not that long ago: the Matebook X. Well, now we have the Matebook X Pro. And since Huawei was kind enough to give me a very limited time with the device before release, I figured I’d try and do one of my complete walkthroughs. If you aren’t familiar, these are where I go through as many features of the device as I can so you have as much info as possible should […]

OK, part two of my series on putting the top 2017 phones to the test (if you haven’t seen the first one, check it out at the link below when you’re done here). Basically, though, I’m taking the best phones of 2017 and putting them side by side in some scientific, not really that scientific, tests. Today’s test is battery life. So for this test, I picked the phones that in my own personal use case have the best chance of winning this and put them against one another. This means that any of these phones are already really good

Huawei Watch 2 (Complete Walkthrough) (Video)

I was a huge fan of the first Huawei Watch. It had Android Wear, was well-built, and looked like a normal watch so when Huawei reached out and asked me to check out their latest version the Huawei Watch 2, I said absolutely. Now, after spending a little time with it, I figured I’d do a complete walkthrough of the Huawei Watch 2 Classic for anyone interested in the device and all the things it is capable of doing. First up, the watch itself is larger than the original Huawei Watch, in fact, it’s pretty hefty, but along with that

Huawei Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro (Video)

In June and July, Huawei, for the first time ever, passed Apple in terms of global smartphone sales share, making them the second largest handset manufacturer in the world (Samsung is number one for those keeping score). Now, these number don’t include the very important Q4 when Apple announces and generally sells the majority of their devices, but regardless, it’s no small feat. The funny thing is, when I tell most people I know about it, they go, “Who’s Huawei?” A lot of the reason for that comes down to the fact that the vast majority of those sales are

Huawei Matebook X Review: A Macbook for Windows?

Huawei, a Chinese company that has become more popular here in the States thanks to their flagship spec’ed, yet moderately priced cell phones (they even made the last Nexus device for Google: the 6P), has made it clear that they don’t want to just make phones. Last year they launched their first ever laptop the Huawei Matebook and this year they’ve expanded the Matebook line to the D (their lower-end offering), the E (the successor to the original Matebook 2-in-1) and X (their top of the line model). Which happens to be the one I have here. So, let’s check

Huawei P9 and P9 Plus are two of the premium smartphones by the Chinese manufacturer and the company believes these two will give a tough competition to the rivals like the Galaxy and Note series phones from Samsung.

Rooting means gaining administrative privileges on the phone and then stuffing the

How to Get the Android N on a Nexus (Using Android Beta) (Video)

Google surprised everyone this week and, instead of announcing their new Android verison developer preview at their developer I/O conference (in May), they randomly announced it. Android N as it is being called (Nougat maybe when it’s final?) seems to most a small bump up from Android Marshmallow, 6.1 maybe instead of a full 7.0. With new notification actions and look, new settings menu with more info, and a few other slight overhauls, it’s still shaping to be a nice evolution of the OS. How to Get Android N Right Now If you want to play with it now, and

How to Root the Huawei Y6

While there’s a requirement of unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom recovery for rooting many Huawei devices, gaining root on the Huawei Y6 isn’t as cumbersome. The device can be rooted using the universal KingRoot app that can root a number of Android devices. Once rooted, you’ll get the Chinese KingUser app on your device to manage root-permissions, and for the folks who aren’t fluent in Chinese, I’ll show you in a section below how to replace KingUser with the standard SuperSU app. Here’s how to root your Huawei Y6 with KingRoot: Before You Begin This could void the warranty of

How to Unroot the Nexus 6P (Toolkit Method)

If you’re done messing around with your Nexus 6P or just need to sell it, return it for warranty or what have you, then you’ll need to unroot the Nexus 6P to get it back to stock beforehand. Essentially this process will flash the stock firmware (made available by good old Google online thankfully) and relock the bootloader to get the device back to the way it was when you first took it out of the box. To make things a lot easier, I’m going to use WugFresh’s toolkit to automate some of the steps for you –trust me, it

Video: How to Root the Nexus 6P (Toolkit Method)

Google’s latest flagship phone the Nexus 6P has some of the top of the line hardware and, with updates directly from Google, top of the line Android software as well. But what if you’re like me and want to tinker a bit with said software? Well, there’s always rooting the Nexus 6P to get even more out of the software. Rooting, aka gaining administrative rights, allows you to make backups of the entire system, remove system apps that normally cannot be deleted, and even the ability to flash custom ROMs which can be completely revamped versions of the operating system.

How to Unroot the Huawei Honor 4C

If you’re finally done messing around with your Huawei Honor 4C after rooting it and changing the software to your heart’s content, and you’re ready to get everything back to stock so you can send it in for warranty or sell it or whatever the need may be, you’ll need to do what we call “unroot” it. Just like rooting the device this involves flashing some firmware onto it, but instead of a custom firmware, we’re going to literally flash the stock firmware that it came with back onto it to erase anything we did to it and get it
