Alan Turing was a pioneering English computer scientist, mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist widely deemed the father of artificial intelligence, who also played a pivotal role in the World War II Nazi defeat by cracking intercepted coded messages for the Allied powers.Turing Robotic Industries is, frankly, a delusional smartphone-manufacturing company established in San Francisco last year, which aims to “disrupt the status quo” with outlandish promises it can’t possibly deliver on. ...

Those who have stuck with Turing for the long run have been waiting on final shipping dates. Forget the fact that the company switched out a secured version of Android for Sailfish OS or even the fact this Turing Phone has “liquid metal” or whatever, you’ve waited nearly a year for this device with good money sunk into it, you’re going to get it.Well, you probably got an email from ...

Going back to last summer, we’ve been approaching the Turing Phone with a healthy degree of skepticism. Right from the get-go, the handset was promising an awful lot, from “uncrackable” security to some very high-end hardware materials. If it actually came to pass, the phone might be pretty impressive, but would it ever ship? Well, our fears appeared to be allayed when we finally saw the manufacturer ...
The post What the hell is the Turing Phone doing? Drops Android for Sailfish OS appeared first on Pocketnow.
Seemingly from the moment the Turing Phone debuted this past summer, the smartphone has been mired in controversy. Could the manufacturer really deliver on its promise of an “unhackable” handset; is such a thing even possible? Would the hardware actually be as insanely durable as it was made out to be? And could the top-shelf pricing really be justified by the seemingly underwhelming hardware specs (which have more in common with the OnePlus X than a modern flagship)? Hell, would we even ...
The post Turing Phone isn’t going to hit its ship date; best ETA now is sometime in Q1 2016 appeared first on Pocketnow.
Are you tired of the cookie-cutter smartphones being brought to you by the major manufacturers in the market? This years model of so-and-so’s flagship is little more than a spruced-up version of last year’s, or maybe with a design element or two copied from a competitor? It’s this feeling of “there’s nothing new anymore” that may be driving more and more shoppers to check out the options from new faces on the scene: companies like OnePlus. Last month we learned about an eye-catching new option, as

Update: Warning – peaking audio levels at the beginning and end of this podcast. Enjoy!Yo dudes. This week was gnar, dudes.First we get word from Commodore that they’re (sorta) back and they’ve got a fleshtone phone to prove it. Then we hear that some kind of modern-day Iron Man is building a phone out of a material called “liquidmorphium.” Then we go hands-on with an all-metal, super-stylized ZTE phone, before hearing that Samsung’s new smartwatch is gonna have a digital crown and a rotating bezel control. And that’s not even half of ...

Anyone accusing modern smartphones of being dull probably needs his eyes examined.

The Turing Phone, pictured above and below, is the world’s first device made out of liquid metal. Actually, it is called Liquidmorphium, and, according to the official wording, it is “an amorphous “liquid metal” alloy tougher than either titanium or steel”. This alloy is said to be stronger than steel and titanium, so there’s no risk of another “bendgate” while using it.The Turing Phone can be preordered in the USA and China starting July 31, for $740 (64GB) and $870 (128GB). Inside the Liquidmorphium shell there’s a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 ...
