Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite rumoured to get exclusive colour variant

Samsung is said to be taking on the Apple iPhone XR with this exclusive colour

The rumour mill for the upcoming Galaxy S10 devices keep churning. The latest one revolves around the Lite version of the phone. It’s rumoured that the cheapest S10 model will get an exclusive colour option, similar to what Apple did with the iPhone XR. It’s said to come in yellow, white, black, green, and blue. Meanwhile, the S10 and S10+ won’t get the yellow colour option. While the rumoured S10+ that comes in ceramic will be available in black or white. If you’re waiting for other colour variants though, Samsung is known to release other colour options down the line. The Galaxy S10 is expected to launch on February 20th.

‘Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled’ might not arrive on the Nintendo Switch at the same time as other consoles

Activision has scheduled the release of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled for June 21, 2019 for all platforms. But it looks like Nintendo Switch gamers might have to wait. GoNintendo reported that a number of retailers have taken away the pre-order option for the game’s Switch option—some have even cancelled customer pre-orders. On top of that, the official site for the game now also just displays the words “Coming Soon” when you head to the digital and standard Switch pre-order section. Selecting the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions display the original release date. As for the reason why the game could be delayed, we can’t say yet. But we’d have to wait for official word from Activision when it comes to any updates.

Amazon Echo speakers finally get Apple Music support

We reported at the end of last month that Apple Music support was hitting Amazon Echo speakers. The feature arrives earlier than it was scheduled to come (which was December 17). And now users can head to the Alexa app on iOS or Android to add Apple Music to the list of supported music streaming services. Once you’ve linked your Apple Music account to Alexa, you can even set it as your default streaming service. Apple Music subscribers can then ask Alexa to play songs from their personal playlists, their entire library, or any of the service’s curated playlists or radio stations. Again, we need to emphasize that the feature is currently only available to Echo speakers and not third-party, Alexa-enabled speakers.

Promo video shows off Samsung One UI features

While we’re still waiting for the release of the stable version of Samsung’s new One UI, the company is ready to tell us what the new UI based on Android 9.0 is going to be like. The first promo video shows us what Samsung has been trying to achieve with the new look. That includes better one-handed use; cleaner, minimalist look; focus on what’s important on the screen; and a more intuitive interaction with what’s on the screen. One UI is expected to come to Samsung’s newest flagship models (the Note9 and Galaxy S9/S9+) sometime in January. It’ll then trickle down to the S8/S8+ and Note8.
