  • The Moto P40 Play With A Compact Form Factor Leaks

    The Moto P40 Play With A Compact Form Factor Leaks

    Motorola launched the P30 series of smartphones in China last year which include the standard P30 and the P30 Note. Reportedly the company is working on their successors which include the P40 and P40 Note. A fresh leak claims that in addition to the aforementioned smartphones, Moto plans to launch a less feature-rich smartphone, the P40 Play. The HD renders and video of the handset have been leaked by a notable tipster, onLeaks. Therefore, the plausibility of this turning out true is considerably high. 

    Moto P40 Play Design And Features

    The front of the Moto P40 accommodates a 5.6 inch display that has a waterdrop notch up top. Notably, the bezels surrounding its display are quite prominent which is mainly due to its affordable price tag. The handset measures 147.7 x 71.5 x 9.2 mm while the details about its weight are unavailable.

    The right side of the Moto P40 is occupied by the power button and the volume rockers while the left side is occupied by the SIM card slot.

  • Samsung Starts Manufacturing Its 5G Modem For Smartphones

    Samsung Starts Manufacturing Its 5G Modem For Smartphones

    The latest trend in smartphones this year has been the advent of 5G. The latest mobile connectivity standard promises better connection speeds and stability. Korean giant Samsung launched its first device supporting the standard, the Galaxy S10 5G at the Unpacked event in San Fransisco on February 20. It features the latest processor from Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 855 SoC. To provide the handset 5G functionality, it also had the X50 modem. In a bid to develop a smartphone with homegrown internals, Samsung has started the production of its 5G components, including the Exynos 5100 5G modem, Exynos 5500 RF transceiver and the Exynos 5800 supply modulator.

    Samsung’s 5G Components

     

    The Samsung Exynos 5100 5G modem is the company’s first modem that supports the new connection standard. While it completed all the preparations for commercialization in August 2018, it is presently ready for mass production. According to the company, the modem virtually supports most networks, right from the sub 6Ghz networks of 5G to 2G GSM/CDMA, 3G WCDMA, HSPA and 4G LTE. The Exynos 5100 is further paired with the Exynos RF 5500 and the Exynos SM 5800 which is the company’s Radio Frequency and supply modulator solution. Notably, these components combined are claimed to support up to 1 Gbps download speeds.

    To maximize the data rate over the 5G network, the Exynos RF 5500 has 14 receiver paths for download and supports 4×4 MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output); and higher-order 256 QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modification). All of this helps in an efficient way to maximize the data transfer rate over the latest connection standard. The Exynos SM 5800 on the other hand, is a low-power supply modulator. It has been demonstrated to reduce the power consumption of the 5G modem by up to 30 percent. According to Samsung, it was achieved by adjusting the supply voltage according to the modems RF input signals.

    Interestingly, in contrast to the previous connection standard 4G LTE, 5G components in smartphones take up significant space inside the device. This lets the OEM compromise on essential features like a microSD card and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Even Samsung, who is known to retain the said components in its handsets, removed the headphone jack from the Galaxy Fold and microSD card slot from the Galaxy S10 5G to save space. Furthermore, the mobile network standard is also notorious for consuming battery and producing a lot of heat. This is seen as the main reason for the slow, gradual rollout of 5G.

  • Amazon Is Apparently Working On True Wireless Earphones With Alexa Support

    Amazon Is Apparently Working On True Wireless Earphones With Alexa Support

    The popularity of True Wireless buds is at an all-time high, which is apparent from the fact that every major technology brand is launching its own version of truly wireless earphones. For instance, Beats By Dre unveiled its own truly wireless earphones on April 4, which are known as the Powerbeats Pro. Apple, however, holds the top spot when it’s about TWE (truly wireless earphones). Apple’s AirPods have been immensely popular since its launch in the year 2016, and every other brand is just dropping into the race while Apple has already launched an upgraded version of its AirPods. Another upcoming contender is Amazon, which is speculated to unveil its Alexa based True Wireless Earbuds later in 2019.

    Expected Features

    The upcoming earphones from Amazon are reported to sport a similar design and functionality to Apple’s AirPods but will incorporate a richer quality of sound as compared to its competitor. Sources say that Amazon’s truly wireless earphones, which is the most important project for the company as of now, will support complete Alexa integration. This will help users to check the traffic, weather, order goods and groceries and use other Alexa commands hands-free without even using the smartphone.

    As per sources, the upcoming earphones will support gesture control, implying that users can tap the wearables to answer calls and skip through tracks. The earbuds may have improved battery life over the competition because in terms of TWEs, battery life plays a very significant role. Moreover, the Alexa earphones may sport a more ergonomic design, which will help place it above most of the other True Wireless earbuds in the market.

  • Apple May Release The iPhone XE With A 4.8 Inch Display This Year

    Apple May Release The iPhone XE With A 4.8 Inch Display This Year

    Apple launched the iPhone SE back in the year 2016. The smartphone quickly became one of the best compact devices of its time. Apple has been long awaited to launch its successor which has not yet happened. Pleasingly, a new report claims Apple may finally launch its successor, allegedly called the iPhone XE later this year. Noteworthy, the smartphone may be produced by Wistron, which has massive production plants in India. 

    iPhone XE

    Sources claim the iPhone XE will have a similar design to the original iPhone SE, which suggests an aluminium back. Since metal doesn’t let current pass through the induction method; the possibility of the device supporting wireless charging is ruled out. Reports claim the smartphone will feature a 4.8 inch OLED display with a wide notch and minimal bezels. The notch will feature the components used for FaceID, Apple’s signature biometrics security technology. This suggests the handset will ditch the TouchID in favour of FaceID in comparison to its predecessor.

    The reports further claim that the iPhone XE will run on the current 7nm Apple A12 Bionic SoC. This processor is also present on the iPhone XS, XS Max and the iPhone XR. In terms of optics, a single rear camera is expected. This may an f/1.8 aperture equipped 12MP sensor last seen in the iPhone XR. For selfies, a 7MP camera is expected to be housed in the notch on top of the display. Although the report of a smaller iPhone has been rife for quite some time, there has been no announcement from Apple. It may be the case that the Cupertino giant may surprise everyone by launching the aforementioned smartphone.

    Pricing & Availability

    The reports claim the iPhone XE might launch in the third quarter of this year. The price of the smartphone is expected to start at around US$ 600 (Rs. 41,400). 

  • Apple Stepping Up In-House 5G Modem Production After Conflict With Intel

    Apple Stepping Up In-House 5G Modem Production After Conflict With Intel

    As per a report, Apple is facing strained relationships with the American chipmaker Intel, due to which it is ramping up its in-house modem production for its future 5G smartphones, which may make their way into the market by the year 2021. Now, It appears that Apple has lost its confidence in Intel’s ability to deliver the promised 5G modems by 2020.

    About The Intel-Apple Partnership

    Reports state that 1000 to 2000 Qualcomm and Intel engineers are working on the aforementioned chips and modems, which will be used in future iPhones. However, Intel has reportedly missed out on deadlines for the production and development of the XMM 8160 5G modem. While Apple is unsatisfied with Intel’s results, Intel reverted by saying that Apple is a demanding client and that it is very conflicted with Apple regarding the partnership.

    Additionally, Intel also claims that it has lowered its margins drastically in light of the partnership, and at the same time, the company has to treat Apple as its number one priority. The internal conflict between the two companies may take a more serious turn, with Intel focusing on more profitable businesses in other categories. Even though doing so might be a breach of contract, Intel may start taking a practical oversight of the situation, which might harm relations between both the companies.

    Consequently, Apple is in a twist regarding the 5G modem production. Companies like Samsung and MediaTek will be unable to supply 5G modems for the iPhones by at least 2020, reports say. As reported previously, Apple has been in a legal fallout with chipset manufacturer, Qualcomm, so the prospects of Apple and Qualcomm working together for a long period of time may be very weak. Nonetheless, Apple is known for treating its customers with the utmost priority, so the American multinational technology company may have something up its sleeve in order to speed up the rollout of 5G iPhones in the near future.

  • Oppo Patents Innovative Smartphones With Pop-Up Display & Side-Sliding Display

    Oppo Patents Innovative Smartphones With Pop-Up Display & Side-Sliding Display

    In an era where innovations are happening faster than any of us can fathom, Oppo is trying out an entirely different concept for its future smartphones. While this may initially seem non-significant to some people, Oppo might have something special in store here. The Chinese technology company has patented two mobile phone models, and no, they are not any sort of foldable devices. 

    About The Patent

    WIPO (World Intelectual Property Organization) published the patent on January 29, 2019. The patent originated from Guangdong Oppo Mobile Telecommunications, and it contained information regarding an “Electronic Device with a display panel”. The company that introduced one of the first pop-up camera modules in the market has now patented two new designs, one of which is a pop-up display design. That is right, the smartphone has a second display that pops out of the primary display. It may seem like an idea that no one has thought of previously, but Oppo has already put it on paper. And the design may have some really helpful functionalities.

    Pop-Up Display Smartphone

    The first design is that of a pop-up display, and it is very similar to a pop-up camera’s mechanism, except the fact that instead of a camera, a screen pops out. Obviously, the second display is much slimmer and narrower than the main display of the device, and for the same reason, it has almost one-third the height of the primary display. Seemingly, a telescopic mechanism helps the second narrower display to pop out of the device. Where some people may argue that it is a useless feature, it may actually be beneficial for those who multitask a lot and use the keyboard in the portrait mode.

    Side-Sliding Display Smartphone

    The second design is also aesthetically pleasing. As per images, the screen does not pop up from the top, instead, a second screen slides towards the left using a guide rail mechanism. This design may remind a lot of users of the HTC Desire Z device, which was released in September 2010, almost a decade ago. The design was very convenient for people who were used to conventional QWERTY typing at that time. Now, when QWERTY keyboards are literally the standard, slider phones may make a comeback soon, albeit without the physical buttons.

    Both the patented designs house the camera module and the earpiece in the top bezel, which is seemingly very narrow. The notchless design seen in the patent images is very pleasing to look at. Furthermore, Oppo is also planning to unveil its Reno Series of smartphones in April 2019. It is interesting to see how Oppo is targeting premium mid-range devices with smartphones that have innovative and impressive features.

  • Renders Of An Unknown Motorola Smartphone With Quad-Rear Cameras Leaked

    Renders Of An Unknown Motorola Smartphone With Quad-Rear Cameras Leaked

    Motorola launched the last smartphone in the Moto X series, the Moto X4 back in the year 2017. Since then, there were reports the company is pushing the lineup off the edge and will focus on the Moto Z series. Fresh leaks of an unknown Motorola device with an all-new design have leaked online. It is speculated that this smartphone is the next handset in the Moto X lineup and might be called the Moto X5.

    Design & Features

    The unknown smartphone from Motorola, as mentioned above, will sport a new design from the company. Renders reveal the device will have a glass sandwich design with a brushed accent on the back. Sources claim it will have a 6.2-inch AMOLED display with a FullHD+ resolution. Like the Moto G7, it is a waterdrop notch and a Motorola branding on the chin. For biometrics and security, the handset will have an in-display fingerprint sensor.

    The leaked renders reveal that the smartphone will have a quad-rear camera setup, a first for Motorola. While the details about the optics aren’t known, the images reveal one of the sensors will be a 48MP one. A single front-facing camera will also be housed in the waterdrop notch on top of the display. To accommodate the lenses, there is a hefty camera bump on the back of the smartphone. While details about the processor inside the device are unclear, it is expected to run on the 7nm Snapdragon 855 SoC as it will be a flagship smartphone.

  • Samsung Registers “Triple Intellicam” Trademark, May Debut With The Galaxy A90

    Samsung Registers “Triple Intellicam” Trademark, May Debut With The Galaxy A90

    Samsung has been on a smartphone launching frenzy in the year 2019, as it has unveiled some really competitive handsets in the market so far. The Korean Technology company is planning to release yet another premium mid-range smartphone, the Galaxy A90 which is expected to launch at an event in April. A trademark filing which was spotted at EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office) reveals that the smartphone may have the “Triple Intellicam” feature, which will drastically change how lighting conditions affect photographs.

    What Is Intellicam?

    “Intellicam” was a term that was first associated with the Galaxy A8 Star, which was released in June 2018. The A8 Star was the first Galaxy device that had a “Dual Intellicam”, which automatically adapted its settings as per the lighting conditions, enabling the user to capture well-lit images. Consequently, the “Triple Intellicam” is expected to function on the same lines of the “Dual Intellicam” with enhanced capabilities.

    Samsung has always been innovative from the perspective of smartphone cameras, and the company is not looking to disappoint here. “Triple Intellicam” may use AI optimization to capture images in low light and very high light, just like Scene Optimizer in Samsung’s high-end devices such as the Samsung Galaxy S10. Furthermore, the company is also expected to incorporate a pop-up camera in the upcoming device.

    Expected Specifications And Availability

    The Galaxy A90 is speculated to be the first phone from the company without any punch hole cutout or a notch of any sorts. Moreover, this may lead to a bezel-free screen on the smartphone, and taking into account the aforementioned pop-up camera, this may actually be a stark reality. The Galaxy A90 is expected to sport an 11 nm based Snapdragon 7150 SoC, and even though very little is known about the chipset itself, it will provide enhanced support for AI, gaming and camera.

    Under the hood, the Galaxy A90 is speculated to pack 8GB of RAM and 256GB of Internal Storage for the top variant. Other rumoured features include a 48MP primary camera with an ultrawide sensor and telephoto lens. Additionally, the A90 may have a 32MP front camera. Moreover, the device may have support for 25W fast charging. The device is expected to be priced in the sub 30k segment, and as mentioned before, it will be unveiled in April 2019.

    According to the leak, the Redmi Pro 2 will have a similar design language to its younger siblings, the Redmi Note 7 and the Note 7 Pro. The leak exhibits a smartphone with a high screen to body ratio and gradient style back. Noteworthy, the smartphone does not feature a notch on top of the display instead it has a popup selfie camera like the Vivo V15 Pro. Unlike the previously launched Redmi smartphones, the upcoming handset features a triple rear camera setup. The leak states that out of the three rear facing cameras, one is a 48 MP sensor.

    Another significant feature that the Redmi 2 Pro is reported to have is an in-display fingerprint sensor which is slowly becoming the industry standard amongst flagship devices. As previously mentioned, the smartphone will be kitted with the latest Snapdragon 855 SoC which is manufactured using a 7nm fabrication process. This makes the chipset highly power efficient resulting in a longer battery backup. Other details including the screen size, battery capacity and connectivity options will only be revealed once the handset is officially announced.

    Credibility of the Leak And Launch Date

    As the leak comes from a public source, its credibility is hard to assess. However, Xiaomi’s co-founder, Lei Jun was previously spotted next to an unfamiliar smartphone which is alleged to be the Redmi 2 Pro. Notably, the aforementioned device looks similar to the one from the freshly leaked poster. Hence, the leak has high plausibility of turning out true.
