With the recent Android 6.0 Marshmallow update on Samsung Galaxy rumour, ASUS and OnePlus have also announced their own Android 6.0 Marshmallow update in the coming weeks (or months). There are no specific Malaysia release dates yet, but rest assured the updates are official by the two companies. Check out the list of phones that are getting some tasty marshmallow updates in this article.

So apparently, there's a leaked image of showing various Samsung Galaxy models to be updated with Android Marshmallow. Similarly to Marvel Studio Cinematic Phase plans, the image are showing 2 phase plans of which model will be updated first. There's also a third phase, but as of now there are no plans yet and it will only commence after initial testing (same goes to the n/a status below).

Digi recently gave their Quarterly Network Update presentation on their upcoming plans in the future. One of the key points they pointed out was an improved expansion of their 4G LTE network coverage, as it has increased to 60% of the population coverage. This is the result of their engineers, busy expanding Digi's 4G LTE network for the past few months in 80 major cities and towns (key market centres 95% population coverage). They have also switched its 4G LTE-Advanced (4G LTE-A) network nationwide with a 22% coverage footprint (50% population coverage in key market centres). 

Our previous explorations in Frequency Interference have clearly shown that supposed 2.4GHz devices like Wireless AV transmitters are actually interfering with the 2.3GHz spectrum assigned to telcos like P1. A closer look at the manual reveals that this isn't the manufacturer's fault as they clearly state that you should retune the settings for said devices. As such, it becomes the users full responsibility if SKMM enforcement should come knocking with up to RM500000 fees or 5 years imprisonment. However, all is not lost as you can retune your Wireless AV device quite easily. Check out how to do so via the video in this article.

Recently Huawei announced a new next-gen quick charging technology using lithium-ion batteries – one with 600 mAh  capacity that can be charged to 68% capacity in just 2 minutes; and another with a 3000 mAh capacity and an energy density above 620 Wh/L, which can be charged to 48% capacity in 5 minutes. The second quick charging allows 10 hours of phone calls on Huawei mobile phones.

The HTC One X9 speculation has been going on for awhile, but we can now confirm that it's pretty much official and coming soon (probably next year). TENAA, a Chinese certification and regulatory authority in China have certified the said product and revealed some tech specs:-
