Thank you very much for taking part in our user & contributor survey. We received 228 submissions. Let's dive straight into the data.
This survey got over 200 responses and considering only a fraction of people who actually see the survey will respond, there are probably quite a lot of happy Cordova users and new and long-running app projects out there. We got some good feedback of the most requested improvements and biggest pain points.
Usage
Obviously almost all respondents work with Cordova and the most used platforms are Android (97.4%), iOS (89%), Browser (21.1%) and Electron (7%). Windows and macOS Catalyst got only a handful of responses in total.

Android 13+ Support
Beginning from Android 13 (SDK 33), the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission no longer has any effect. Instead, this permission has been replaced with more granular permissions: READ_MEDIA_IMAGES, READ_MEDIA_VIDEO, and READ_MEDIA_AUDIO. Also the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE has
Samsung's Galaxy A35 and A55 became official last month, and Samsung decided not to bring the A55 to the US, despite the fact that its predecessors have been available in the States. So that leaves the A35 out of the two, and it's now available in the US, at Samsung's own online store, as well as major carriers and retailers such as Amazon.
You'll need to pay $399.99 for one, and you can pick from Awesome Navy and Awesome Lilac in terms of colorways. If you buy yours from Samsung.com, for a limited time you can grab a pair of Galaxy Buds FE alongside it for 30% off. If you trade-in your...
Thin and fanless – these are the key takeaways from the images of the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 14 2024 Snapdragon Edition. This laptop will be powered by the Snapdragon X Elite, as the name suggests.
Okay, we don’t actually know that it will be fanless as the leaked images (posted by X user WalkingCat) came with no specs attached. But they do offer a good look from all sides and we don’t see any vents.

All we know is that it will have a 14.5” display, just like the other Yoga Slip 7 14. Battery capacity and endurance are unknown, but...
No one does earbuds launch quite like Nothing, not even Apple. Nothing has been issuing teasers with beetles and frogs for the last few weeks, leading up to the announcement of the Nothing Ear and the Nothing Ear (a) earlier today.
It's a significant release for a couple of reasons - first, the nomenclature has changed - gone is the Ear (1), (2), instead of a (3) model we just get Ear. And, second, this is the first time Nothing has released a more affordable model in the (a). But while the Ear is €149/$149/£129 and the Ear (a) is €99/$99/£99, don't think you're getting an inferior product...
Samsung's Galaxy M15 first went official back in March, and then it made its way to India earlier this month, and now it's apparently getting ready for the next stop in its global tour: Europe.
Samsung's store in Poland has listed the M15, and although you can't buy one just yet, the retail price has been revealed: it's PLN 699, which currently translates to about €161. So we expect the Eurozone pricing to be either €159 or €169.
For that amount of cash, you get the version with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It's unclear when the device will go on sale in Europe, but it can't be...
The 3GPP Release 17 specification for 5G introduced some major upgrades – among them support for 1024 QAM, which enables higher data transfer speeds as Samsung and Qualcomm just demonstrated.
Using Samsung 5G vRAN tech running on 2.1GHz (FDD) and 3.5GHz (TDD) and a test unit with a Snapdragon X75 modem, the two companies achieved speeds of 485Mbps with 20MHz bandwidth. This is 20% higher than what’s possible with the 256 QAM that is common on 5G networks today. The X75 modem is featured in the Snapdragon 8/8s Gen 3, by the way.
This is a first time in the industry this was pulled...
Huawei announced the Pura 70 series today, and once again offered no details regarding the chipsets. However, early benchrmarks confirmed they feature a new platform called Kirin 9010, which has an 8-core CPU, identified by apps as 12-core unit due to hyperthreading.
Hyperthreading is nothing new in the chipset industry, as the Taishan cores have been supporting the technology for some time; it has been part of the Kirin 9000s and now is a part of the 9010 as well.
First Geekbench results revealed a minor improvement in raw performance, coming from slightly faster core speeds. The...
After the EU forced Apple to open up its iOS platform for third-party app stores, we now have the first alternative to Apple's default App Store.It's called AltStore PAL, which is rather fitting.
Technically, AltStore PALhas been around since 2019, but you were able to access it after "hacking" your way into it. You had to "disguise" yourself as a developer using companion software called AltServer running on your computer. But after the EU Commission's DMA, AltStore PAL is now available to anyone willing to tap through all the prompts from Apple asking if you are sure you want to...
Yesterday, an announcement of a Sony Xperia event leaked out, today it is official. The “Xperia Special Event 2024” is scheduled for May 17 and will be held at the Terrada Warehouse B&C Hall. It’s a pretty exclusive event, though, only 100 people are invited.
There will be a livestream, of course, to let “Xperia developers introduce the latest features in real life,” as the event description reads (machine translated from Japanese).
Fancy talk aside, the only real question is whether the three models (1, 5 and 10) would be announced at this event or whether there will be stragglers....
Nothing’s latest earbuds come in two styles and price points with the €99/$99/£99 Nothing Ear (a) and the €149/$149/£129 Nothing Ear. Nothing Ear is the new flagship offering coming in as a direct successor to last year’s Ear (2) while Ear (a) aims to fill the gap as the more affordable entry. Nothing also announced ChatGPT integration for the new earbuds allowing you to summon the AI assistant with a pinch gesture.

The new Pura 70 lineup from Huawei comes in four trims with the Pura 70 Ultra being the most impressive of them all. It shares the same core specs as the Pura 70 Pro+ but comes with an exclusive vegan leather back and a mightier camera setup with a 1-inch main sensor with retractable lens and variable aperture.
Huawei added a retractable mechanism to the 50 MP main camera's lens which pops the camera up when in use. The rotating telescopic lens features an intricate motorized structure which Huawei tested for 300,000 cycles of expansion and contraction.
