De la Cuesta: We still have a strong link to Chapecoense

fifa.noJSVideoMessage “The gesture arose in the midst of an enormous sadness that invaded us all, where our board of directors, owners and organisation made the joint decision that we should give this title to Chapecoense. We wanted to give them a light of hope in the midst of this tragedy. Yes, it was a very hard thing. All of Colombia was in solidarity with the Brazilian people, with the team and we made some very nice gestures, but what we wanted was, in the midst of that great tragedy, to help this mourning. We still have a strong link to Chapecoense and continue to communicate with them. In addition to that we will play the Recopa this year where the Libertadores champion, Atletico Nacional and Chapecoense, who won the South American Cup will play and we are doing some activities in favor of solidarity, respect and brotherhood between football friends. The competitive part goes to the background and the most important thing is to show all these manifestations of love, affection, b..

Xiaomi announces white Mi Mix at CES, still China-only

Just as leaked, rumored, and hinted at by the company"s own teasers over the past few days, today during its CES press conference Xiaomi has made the white version of the Mi Mix official. This has a pearl-like finish, according to Xiaomi VP Hugo Barra, who was on stage to introduce it to the world.
The specs stay the same as for the initially revealed black model, as you"d expect. Unfortunately the white Mi Mix, like the black one, will only be sold in China. An actual release date hasn"t been mentioned.
Despite what many had been hoping, Xiaomi still hasn"t announced its international expansion into what are usually called "developed markets". So don"t expect to officially buy Xiaomi smartphones in the US, Canada, or Western Europe anytime soon. As for the Mi Mix, it was perhaps the most intriguing device of 2016 (unless you count the Galaxy Note7"s propensity to catch fire), but it was launched as a concept with limited production capacity an..

Samsung SDI will still produce batteries for Galaxy S8

Samsung is going to publish soon its report about the Galaxy Note 7, but insider sources report that the problem was not an issue with the battery, produced by Samsung SDI.
According to recent rumors the charge component for the next devices that the Korean company is unveiling in 2017 will be made by Samsung SDI and not LG or TDK. The first phones out there are the Galaxy A-series which are going on sale in Russia and Malaysia this month. A Samsung official said:
SDI’s large-capacity battery is installed in Galaxy A 2017. It will not be the sole supply but it will be the battery supplier for most of the devices. Samsung SDI also noted in a statement that they will also supply batteries for the next-generation flagship smartphone Galaxy S8. So clearly Samsung is confident its own battery division is still capable of delivering a product good enough for what is arguably the most important launch in its history. Here"s hoping it"s right.

Lahm: Winning the World Cup is still indescribable

© Getty Images Philipp Lahm has raved about winning the FIFA World Cup™ and backed Germany to repeat the feat in the near future. ‘Magic Dwarf’ swapped between right-back and central midfield during Brazil 2014, and captained Joachim Low’s team to glory. Five days later Lahm announced his retirement from international football, having won 113 caps.
“It was definitely the high point of my football career,” the 33-year-old told GloboEsporte of the World Cup triumph. “Winning the Champions League for my club was incredible, but to finish my career with the German national team, after ten years, winning the World Cup is difficult to even find words to describe. It was a huge triumph, and involved a lot of luck.”
Lahm, Per Mertesacker, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Miroslav Klose – all of whom played in the Brazil 2014 Final – have since quit the national team. Germany have, nonetheless, won all four of their Russia 2018 qualifiers and sit top of Group C, five points clear of their nearest ch..
