Have you tried AirConsole? Its motto is “Your browser is the console, your smartphone is the gamepad,” which means exactly what you think it does. You can play games on your PC screen, controlling them with your phone, which turns into a touch controller. You can invite your friends for multiplayer games too!

Now OnePlus has partnered with AirConsole to offer some exclusive games for the platform – Silly Run Valley, Remon & Honey and Brick Wars.

We slacked off work for a few minutes to try out the games and they are very impressive, multiplayer is especially fun.

Silly Run Valley is an infinite runner in the vein of Temple Run and works with the phone’s accelerometer. Remon & Honey is a side-scrolling shoot-’em-up, which puts an old-school controller on your phone. Multitouch is supported, so pressing several buttons at once works (but don’t hold down the fire all the time or your weapon will “overheat”).

There are other games too, suitable for a more mature audience like Texas Hold ’em and Cards Against Humanity.

Note that you don’t have to install anything – just open http://www.airconsole.com on both a computer and a phone (or several) and type in the provided code. You can also install the AirConsole game if you’re going to play often, but the browser-only version is great for an impromptu party game challenge.

PS. We can’t try it right now (work and what not), but apparently AirConsole works with Smart TV browsers too, so you don’t even need a…

This doesn’t sound too surprising as Samsung already has three versions of its flagship (Galaxy S6, S6 edge and S6 edge+) and we already reported on the Plus version. Still it’s nice to hear that the Plus won’t be coming at the expense of some of the other two but will be bringing even more diversification to the lineup.

The Galaxy S7 lineup is expected to go official on the next MWC in February and to introduce the new Exynos 8890 chipset with Samsung’s first custom processor cores. Other rumors point a brand new 12MP 1/2.0″ sensor.

If you need even more details, the Galaxy S7 series have been tipped to use new magnesium build and offer Hi-Fi audio. 3D Touch-like features should be also on board to compete with Apple.

There is no indication if the Plus versions will be introduced side by side with the regular ones, but nevertheless – it seems very likely we are getting at least four Galaxy S7 phones next year, before we even start counting the Active, Neo, and Mini…
