Android Nougat update comes to the Moto M

The Motorola Moto M is a mid-range handset that is powered by a MediaTek Helio P15 chipset. That means it features an octa-core CPU, which in this case is clocked at 2.2GHz. Did we just hear you ask about the graphics processor on the unit? That would be the Mali-T860 MP2. This would also be the perfect time to tell some of you that a mid-range phone doesn't necessarily carry a small screen.

According to a posting on Weibo, Sony will be unveiling a "truly bezel-less" handset at IFA in Berlin. Sony has already announced an event scheduled for August 31st, the day before the 2017 version of the trade show is scheduled to begin. This all ties in with an announcement made earlier this month by Japan Display (JDI), introducing a 6-inch "Full Active" display with a 1440 x 2560 QHD resolution and an 18:9 aspect ratio.
