AT T Confirms 45 and 60 GoPhone Prepaid Plans Get More Data This Week

AT T Confirms 45 and 60 GoPhone Prepaid Plans Get More Data This Week

Yesterday, we reported changes coming soon to AT&T’s GoPhone plans that would reward each with more data without a price hike. AT&T has now confirmed and announced the plan changes, which will arrive this Friday. 

As we noted yesterday, both the $45 and $60 plans are getting more data, with the $45 plan going from 2GB to 3GB data per month, while the $60 plan is jumping from 5GB to 6GB. Again, that is all happening without a price hike.

Also, keep in mind that you can receive a $5 per month discount on each if you sign-up for autopay.

If you are already a GoPhone customer, the increase in data will attach itself to your account automatically – you don’t need to do anything to get it.

Google Confirms That It is Making a VR Headset for Daydream

Google Confirms That It is Making a VR Headset for Daydream

This morning, during the “VR at Google” session here at Google I/O, Google’s VP of virtual reality, Clay Bavor, confirmed that the company is making its own VR headset. He didn’t provide specifics (like name or release date), only that they are indeed working on a product that is outside of the reference design they built for other manufacturers to use. 

During the session, Google also showed off the Daydream controller and how it will work in a virtual environment. Unlike Samsung’s Gear VR that uses a pad on the side of the head unit for interacting, Google’s vision is of separate headset and handheld motion controller.

In the video below, you can see just how that action might play out.

For reference, here is an image of the reference design that Google was talking about. You can see the simple headset design next to a controller that looks a lot like something that might be built for Android TV. Or maybe you are seeing a lot of the Gear VR here, which would also make sense.

I’m certainly excited about Google’s VR work, but can’t help but feel a little underwhelmed at the moment. You can only get so hyped for a product that doesn’t actually exist yet. And honestly, that’s sort of the take away at the moment from this year’s I/O – future products that we are dying to play with but can’t.

HTC Confirms Android N Update for One A9 M9 and 10

HTC Confirms Android N Update for One A9 M9 and 10

No shock here, HTC confirmed on Twitter today that Android N will be made available to owners of the One A9, One M9, and HTC 10.

According to HTC, delivery date of the Android N update will depend on when Google actually delivers Android N to manufacturers, and of course, carriers go through their testing/certification phase. Because of those reasons, HTC is not able to provide a timeframe for updates, but realistically, owners should hope to see it within three months of release from Google. 

While this news is great for owners of the aforementioned devices, HTC also confirmed via Twitter that Android N will not available for the One M7 or One M8. That should not be too shocking to anyone, but if it is, that means it’s time for you to buy a new smartphone.

Life is about to get a little sweeter. Android N will be coming to the HTC 10, HTC One A9 and the HTC One M9. http://pic.twitter.com/dj9fcZHNnH
