#Google Project Ara modular smartphone delayed to 2016 Google had announced earlier this year, that it will unveil the modular smartphone in Puerto rico as part of a pilot program that will allow people to choose their own hardware based on their needs and interests.
Looks like, amidst the all new structuring happening at Google, the modular device will have to wait until next year.
The company disclosed that there are no plans to test the modular phone project in Puerto rico later this year.
on day 2 of the Google I/O developers conference, at the ATAP keynote, Google engineer Rafa Camargo assembled a Project Ara phone as part of a live demo,

#Stanford Researchers Created A Smartphone Battery That Charges In Only One Minute Last year, emarketer reported that the global smartphone audience passed 1. 75 billion people.
As smartphones become ubiquitous, the demand for longer-lasting batteries will continue to increase. Fortunately, researchers at Stanford university are building an aluminum-ion battery prototype that speeds up the charging times.
And the aluminum-ion battery could eventually replace many of the lithium-ion and alkaline batteries used in many smartphones today. e have developed a rechargeable aluminum battery that may replace existing storage devices, such as alkaline batteries,
which are bad for the environment, and lithium-ion batteries, which occasionally burst into flames, said Stanford university chemistry professor Hongjie Dai, the lead researcher of the project,
The voltage of the aluminum battery made by the Stanford researchers is about half the average smartphone lithium battery.

They show a slightly bigger phone that contains a sensor for Apple Force Touch technology
which allows the phone screen to be pressure sensitive to allow extra input options. The pictures, reported to have leaked from the Taiwanese supply chain,
show the front of the new phone. As well as the slightly larger size and changed display
they appear to feature a bigger front camera. It has already been suggested that the new iphone will feature an improved front-facing,
or selfie, camera. As well as better hardware for more clear photos, the software will be improved ncluding a feature that will use the screen to create a flash for taking pictures in the dark.
Apple has previously been rumoured to be strengthening the body of the iphone 6, in order to avoid a repeat of the endgateproblems that led some to complain their phone had been curving in their pocket.
Apple will use a more reinforced metal for the phone body the reports have indicated. That slightly larger body will have a smaller battery than the iphone 6, according to previous leaks.

whether Apple 2015 device will be called the iphone 7 or iphone 6s most people have their money on the latter, following Apple usual device patterns.
The updates are usually more about what inside the device than outside, with no significant design change for the device expected.

Apple has been putting a lot of emphasis on the iphone as a photography device, and that looking to take a step even further with the iphone 6s.

and iphone 6s Plus will have 12mp rear cameras and support 4k video recording. This comes off the back of Apple acquiring a company in April
which specialises in smartphone cameras to match DSLR quality. It also lines up with reports from known Apple expert John Gruber,
who said that the iphone 6s will have he biggest camera jump ever, bringing it to DSLR quality.
In the longshot, but still possible category, we could see a cheaper iphone 6c, which will feature a plastic body like the iphone 5c but with the internal specs of the regular iphone 6
. What we won seewith Apple S cycles they never introduce radical new changes, so don expect any new screen sizes or a new design.
At best, they might introduce a new colour, but even that seems unlikely. Despite it being a favourite feature by Android users
it not believed that the iphone 6s will feature wireless charging, due to the company desire to create its own wireless standard.
