US, S Korea begin joint naval drills

United States and South Korea on Saturday started joint naval four-day drills to warn the North Korea.

The South China Morning Post quoted military officials describing this as a clear warning to North Korea, which involve three US aircraft carriers.

The drills began in waters off South Korea's eastern coast.


South Korean military said it's the first time since 2007 that the three battle groups of the USS Ronald Reagan, the Theodore Roosevelt and the Nimitz have operated together in the Western Pacific.

This came amid the US President Donald Trump's Asia visit, which was largely focused on about the North Korean nuclear threat.

Earlier, Chinese President Xi Jinping and President Trump reiterated firm commitment to achieving denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula and working towards a solution through dialogue and negotiation.

President Trump is currently on a tour of Asia that has taken him to Japan, South Korea and China so far.

Currently, he is in Vietnam where he took part in Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit.

The APEC summit, taking place this year, is focused on regional trade, with particularly attention on the TPP, the reports said.


APEC brings together 21 economies from the Pacific region.

And keeping the bad stuff in mind -- Carl Pei on Friday took to the OnePlus forum to post that OnePlus 5T is going to get a major software update in Dec, and that will give a massive boost to the phone's camera setup, especially in its low light photography. It seems, OnePlus -- going by its tagline "Never settle" doesn't probably wants to rest for now. OnePlus 5T has been off to a blazing start, not just in India but all over the world. The company managed to sell out all the units within just 5 minutes, at least that's what the company claims. The OnePlus 5T's next sale is set for Nov 28. Wit...

Google on Thursday announced to rename its year old Android Wear brand to Wear OS. To simplify, Android Wear will henceforth be called Wear OS by Google.

Looks like the new branding Wear OS will eventually show up on some of the watches and mobile applications in the forthcoming weeks. "So as the watch industry gears up for another Baselworld next week, we're announcing a new name that better reflects our technology, vision, and most important of all-the people who wear our watches. We're now Wear OS by Google, a wearables operating system for everyone," notes Google. To recall, the Android Wear brand was initially introduced just a year ago, in 2014. The change in name of the brand is mainly because, these wearable devices are not just by Android users but by iPhone users as well. Hence, naming...
