While Huawei still isn't ready to officially sell its flagship P-series handsets in the US, this year it's going to offer them up north in Canada for the first time ever. We're talking about both the P10 and the P10 Plus, and the phones have gone up for pre-order at Rogers today.

Moto Z2 Play is already listed by a Brazilian retailer ahead of its unveiling tomorrow

Motorola's upcoming Moto Z2 Play has been leaking a lot lately, and a few days ago one such leak has revealed that it should become official on June 1 (tomorrow), at least in Brazil. In the meantime, Motorola's arm in Canada has teased an announcement for tomorrow too. So it's pretty much a given that the Z2 Play will finally be unveiled in a matter of hours. As usual in these cases, one retailer simply couldn't wait (or got the embargo ending wrong) and has listed the new, still-unannounced handset on its website. This time it's happened in Brazil, which makes sense since that's a big...

Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ are now officially available in the US

Right on time, as previously announced, today is the release date for the unlocked Galaxy S8 and S8+ models in the US. We're talking about the officially sold versions of the two, keep in mind. You can find variants meant for certain international markets on eBay, for example, and those are indeed cheaper than the officially sanctioned iterations. However, if you go that route, you may be giving up proper after-sales support, and might also run into issues with things like not all of your carrier's bands being supported. If paying a little more for the peace of mind that you won't have to...

A lot of Google products and services aren't available in Canada as soon as they are out in the US, which for Canadians must be even more frustrating than for people in other parts of the world because of the geographical proximity of the two countries.

The latest of those leaks came less than 24 hours ago, in fact. You can use Android Pay at hundreds of thousands of shops across the...
