Posted: 25 Feb 2020 05:49 AM PST Jeff Williams, Chief Operating Officer of Apple, speaks about the the new Apple Watch Series 4 at an Apple Inc product launch event at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino, California, September 12, 2018. Stephen Lam | Reuters The Heartline Study app Johnson & Johnson "The Heartline Study is a nationwide, randomized, controlled, app-based, virtual research study sponsored by Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a member of the Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson," the companies said. "The team worked with Apple to jointly design the research study and the Heartline Study app." Open enrollment for the new study begins Tuesday. It's open to anyone 65 or older with traditional Medicare and an iPhone 6s or later model running iOS 12.2 or newer. "Eligible participants will be randomized to one of two possible groups. One group will participate by only using the Heartline Study app on their iPhone," Johnson & Johnson explained. "The other group will participate by using the study app on their iPhone in addition to obtaining an Apple Watch to use the ECG app and irregular rhythm notification feature. Participants who already own an Apple Watch may be eligible to join the study as well, with certain restrictions." Participants selected in the Apple Watch group can either purchase a watch at a discounted price or can borrow a watch on loan for no cost. Those who borrow will have to return the watch at the end of the study. The exact discounted price wasn't disclosed. The app is available for free in the iTunes App Store. The Heartline study app Johnson & Johnson Heartline will last three years and includes two years of active engagement and one year of additional data collection, Johnson & Johnson said. Apple and Stanford published the results of an earlier heart study in November. It was the largest of its kind and was covered in The New England Journal of Medicine. That research included 419,000 participants over 8 months and found that just over 2,000 people received a notification of an irregular pulse. But results of that were debated and many agreed that they were still preliminary.

Galaxy Z Flip vs. Galaxy Fold specs: Comparing Samsung's two foldable phones - CNET Posted: 24 Feb 2020 05:22 PM PST At Samsung's Unpacked event on Feb. 11, the company doubled down on the foldable phone trend with its new Galaxy Z Flipalready available for $1,380 -- although getting one may soon be an even bigger challenge now --, the phone is positioned to go against the foldable Motorola Razr, which has a similar design and is available for $1,499. Within Samsung however, the Z Flip marks the company's continuing commitment to the foldable phone trend, which began when the company announced the Galaxy Fold in February last year. Both phones use Samsung's Infinity Flex Display, which the company developed to enable its handsets to fold hundreds of thousands of times without breaking. Samsung claims both the Fold and the Z Flip can fold 200,000 times without breaking (AKA: the number of times a person would open and close their phone over five years of use), but when CNET tested this claim in October, the Galaxy Fold lasted about 120,000 folds. Unlike the Galaxy Fold, which has a 7.3-inch screen and opens and closes like a book, the Z Flip has a clamshell design. It also has a 6.7-inch display and dual 12-megapixel rear cameras. It costs $1,380 in the US and £1,300 in the UK. For more on how these two phones differ, check out our spec chart below.
