Meizu’s OS Flyme is known as simple and easy to work with. In order to keep being relevant and useful to everyone, the newest Flyme 6 will come out tomorrow with a big update.
Meizu already revealed the system update a month ago along with a list of devices that will get it.

Help to Buy loan guarantee scheme comes to an end

Image copyright Thinkstock One of the government"s flagship home ownership programmes ends on Saturday, amidst both praise and criticism.
The Help-to-Buy Mortgage Guarantee scheme is likely to have helped more than 100,000 individuals or couples buy a home.
The Council of Mortgage Lenders said it had worked “exceptionally well”, making mortgages more available when it started in October 2013.
However Shelter has argued that the scheme helped to push up house prices.
Under the programme, borrowers were able to get a mortgage with just a 5% deposit. If those borrowers were unable to make payments, the government promised to compensate the lender.
But around 30 banks or building societies now offer similar high loan-to-value loans, so the Bank of England declared in September that the scheme is no longer necessary.
The Help-to-Buy Equity Loan scheme – which is only available on new-build homes – will remain on offer until 2020.
Final costSo far the Mortgage Guarantee scheme has c..

Xiaomi Mi Mix comes with Cortana pre-installed

In a partnership the Chinese phone maker made with Microsoft, Xiaomi was sold about 1,500 patents from Microsoft and in return, Xiaomi pre-installed a bunch of Microsoft Apps on the Bezel-less Xiaomi Mi Mix. In fact, the phone comes with Microsoft Word, Excel, Power Point, Outlook Email, and Cortana, Microsoft’s personal assistant.
