  • Huawei Mate 20 Will Have An In-Screen Fingerprint Sensor

    Huawei Mate 20 Will Have An In-Screen Fingerprint Sensor

    Huawei is all set to launch the Huawei P20 series in France on the 27th of March. This hasn’t stopped the company to work on a newer flagship smartphone which is 6 months due. According to a report, the upcoming Huawei Mate 20 (tentative name) will be the first Huawei smartphone to have an in-screen fingerprint sensor.

    Devices like the Vivo X20 UD and the Vivo APEX use a Synaptic sensor called Clear ID. However, Huawei is working with Qualcomm on an ultrasonic technology. Similarly, the Mate 20 could be the first smartphone to have Qualcomm’s ultrasonic fingerprint solution.

    Huawei Mate 20
    Vivo X20 Plus UD

    The Huawei Mate 20 will launch by the end of Q3 2018. To keep the manufacturing flowchart in the right direction, Qualcomm has already partnered with two Taiwanian company. GIS and China’s O-film Tech are those companies, which have pioneered in touchscreen technology.

    Qualcomm’s Ultrasonic sensor

    An ultrasonic sensor would cost 3x times more than the conventional fingerprint sensor. Additionally, one advantage over the normal fingerprint sensor is the fact that the ultrasonic scanner is 0.44mm thick and works even on an 800 micro cover glass. This is a huge advantage over the conventional capacitive sensors, as they can only function if the cover glass is less than 200 microns thick. Another advantage that Qualcomm has over other sensors is the fact that, it can work even with wet or greasy fingers.

    P20 Renders

    Huawei is not the only company that is looking forward to implementing this technology. In fact, according to a recent report, Samsung might have an in-screen fingerprint scanner on their forthcoming Galaxy Note 9 smartphone.

    As the year 2017 was all about taller displays, dual cameras and glass back design. It looks like the year 2018 will be the year of a notch and an in-screen fingerprint scanner.

    Apple To Begin Trial Production Of 2018 iPhone Lineup In Q2 Of 2018

    There have been many rumours and speculations about the successors of the Apple iPhone X. Apple is expected to launch three new iPhones at the end of 2018. Two models are expected to have an OLED display, and the third one will have an IPS LCD display. According to a report, the company is expected to begin a trial run production of these three smartphones by the end of Q2 2018. This enables the company to have enough stock at the time of launch.

    Apple was hit by the production delay of the Apple iPhone X and the company is taking precautionary steps not to repeat the same mistake. Additionally, the company is also focusing on 3D sensors for Face ID, as all three iPhones are expected support Face ID. The report also adds that there is no surging in the order of internal hardware components. Since Apple is expected to launch the successor of the iPhone SE in Q3 of 2018, the revenue generation is expected to go upwards.

    Except for the display, these three iPhones will have identical specifications. The models with an OLED display will have a 5.85 and 6.45 inch display. Whereas, the LCD model will have a 6.1 inch display. These devices will be powered by a next-generation A12 chipset with 64GB or 256GB storage.

    The iPhone with 5.85 inch OLED display will be the most affordable of the lot. To make that happen, Apple might take a step back and use Aluminium frame instead of Stainless steel. The device is expected to have a dual camera setup similar to the iPhone 8 Plus.

    The iPhone X Plus (tentative name) with a 6.45 inch OLED display could be the costliest iPhone of this series. Which is expected to have premium features like dual camera setup with dual OIS and. a stainless steel frame.

    The iPhone with 6.1 inch display will be priced between these devices. It is expected to have similar internals as of the 5.85 inch iPhone. Additionally, the usage of an LCD panel will drive down the overall cost of production, compared an OLED model.

    HTC will launch its next flagship smartphone in July of 2018. According to rumours, the company might directly launch the HTC U12+, instead of HTC U12. Now, people at Technobufallo have rendered what it might look.

    Interestingly, the HTC U12+ renders look similar to the HTC U11+, which was launched in India in February 2018. The designer elements have been inspired by the U11+ with additional attributes to make it a class 2018 flagship smartphone. From the initial impression, the device has a glass front, glass back with a metal frame. Additionally, the device has an internal reflective surface, much like the HTC U11+. Considering the glass back, the smartphone is likely to support wireless charging.

    HTC U12+

    The dual rear-cameras are the new addition to the device. However, the company is most likely to house a dual rear-camera in the left corner similar to the HTC Desire 12+ rather than the one found on this render. On to the front, the device has an 18:9 aspect ratio display with a dual front-facing camera setup. Similar to the U11+, it has minimal bezels and a rear-facing fingerprint scanner. This design represents a smartphone without a notch. However, we can not rule out the possibility of a notch making its way to the design of the HTC U12+.

    HTC U12+ Specs

    The HTC U12+ will have a 6 inch display with a 2880 x 1440 px resolution. This means that the company will continue launching 18:9 smartphones, like the HTC U11+.

The new flagship chipset is no longer Samsung-exclusive and is already present in smartphones from Asus and Sony as well. Coupled with this chipset will be up to 6GB of RAM and 256GB of onboard storage. However, details about other variants have not been revealed. It will be IP68 rated for water and dust resistance, a staple for modern-day flagship phones.

    Now, it is a known fact that Face Unlock is the new trend of the industry. However, it will be interesting to see how HTC implements this feature and how secure it’ll be. On the back of the smartphone will be a dual camera setup of a 12MP sensor coupled with a 16MP Sony IMX3xx sensor. No details about the nature of these sensors have been revealed so far.

    Hublot Launches FIFA Edition Smartwatch For US$ 5200

    Hublot is one of the most renowned premium watch brands. The company has now forayed into the smartwatch business by launching a special smartwatch powered by Wear OS. Hublot has collaborated FIFA to create these watches and named the watch as ‘Big Bang Referee 2018 World Cup Russia’.

    The price of the Hublot Big Bang Referee 2018 World Cup Russia is CHF5,000 (Rs 3,38,988). However, the company will only make 2,018 pieces of this watch. Additionally, the match referees will receive custom versions of the smartwatch.

    Ricardo Guadalupe, CEO of Hublot said:

    The Big Bang Referee 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™ offers all the usual features of a smartwatch of course, but that’s not where Hublot has applied its innovation and audacity. It brings together everything that inspires the passion of football lovers!

    The FIFA World Cup is the Holy Grail of emotions for football fans, so just imagine what an object such as a watch that captures each and every one of its moments, its turning points, its stakes could suddenly represent? The football aficionados from among the brand’s friends have been waiting for this watch for a long time!”

    This watch represents the luxury and craftsmanship, that Hublot is known for. The device is milled out of a single block of titanium and kevlar. By default, the watch will have an analog dial, to give it a retro look. Additionally, the bands are easily swappable like the conventional watches.

    Those who buy this watch will receive notifications on game details like result and goals. Additionally, it will also remind them about forthcoming matches. However, the referee’s version will have more customised in-game functionality, where a referee can check an instant replay and follow the trajectory of the ball.

    The watch has a circular 49mm OLED display with 400 x 400 px resolution. Additionally, the watch is water resistant up to 5ATM and can last one complete day on a single charge.
