Nearly a month after Samsung started rolling out the Marshmallow update to the Galaxy S5, the most widely available model (SM-G900F) of the South Korean company's 2014 flagship has begun receiving the update.




Currently, the update - which brings Marshmallow version 6.0.1 - is hitting units in SriLanka, with European and other SM-G900Fs likely to get it soon.


Given that the roll-out has just begun, it may take some time for the update to hit your Galaxy S5. However, if you're feeling impatient, you can manually check for it by heading to the Settings menu on your device.

Samsung is in the development of a large 1/1.7" CMOS sensor that'll be put to use in the company's upcoming flagships, according to information obtained by PhotoRumors. The new sensor is purported to have an aperture as wide as f/1.4 and would be in the 18-24MP range.



According to the report, Samsung is on a mission to step up its camera game even further and has an aggressive roadmap. The company is also working on a new compact 1/2.3" sensor, but its use isn't known yet.

Finally, Samsung's long-term game is to lure NX camera users to switch to its smartphones and part of the effort to do so will be a new interface based on the NX one in upcoming smartphones. Whether all these rumors are true or not remains to be seen and we'll be keeping an ear out for more rumors on the topic.

Remember a few years ago when lockscreens had shortcuts and widgets and multiple screens? Well, these over-stuffed kind of lockscreens have fallen out of favor now, but if you miss the glory days, you should look at Samsung's new app - Good Lock.


It's a lockscreen replacement that is not 100% sure whether it wants to replace the lock screen or the home screen. It has shortcuts - frequently used but also recent apps.



It has widgets and quick toggles too:



One thing I do like is the advanced notification actions - they are treated almost like calendar events, you can save them for later, set alarms to remind you, tag them so they are easier to find.



The Good Lock app is adaptable, it lets you add rules called Routines. They are based on time, location and network that switch the available shortcuts and apps. Basically, you can create a "work" lockscreen that switches to "personal" after working hours.



The app is available from Galaxy Apps in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Singapore and Korea. You'll need a Galaxy S6 or S7 (including versions like edge and Active) or a Galaxy Note5 (running Marshmallow). Samsung has committed to updating Good Lock bi-weekly based on user feedback.

ZTE's sub-brand Nubia has a new member - the Nubia Z11 mini. The phone features a 5" screen (the term "mini" has grown) and has a strong focus on photography.

The main camera uses a 16MP Sony IMX298 sensor (same as Xiaomi Mi 5 and Huawei Mate 8). It's behind an f/2.0 lens and offers phase-detection autofocus and "3D noise reduction."



You get RAW DNG shooting mode and ISO that goes up to 12,800 (ZTE is promising no added noise, but we don't buy it). For video shooting, the camera maxes out at 1080p.


There's an 8MP selfie camera too, with large 1.4µm pixels and 80° lens (with a narrow aperture of f/2.4).


As for the rest of the Nubia Z11 mini, the phone has a metal frame and a 5" 1080p screen behind a 2.5D glass. It's powered by a Snapdragon 617 chipset (28nm, 8x Cortex-A53, Adreno 405) with 3GB of RAM and comes with an impressive 64GB storage. It runs an older Android 5.1 Lollipop and has a fingerprint reader on the back.



This is a dual-SIM phone with VoLTE support. It's powered by a 2,800mAh battery.


The Z11 mini is going on sale in China later this month and will be available through JD for CNY 1,500 ($230/€205).
