Samsung Galaxy M20 Will Feature A 5000 mAh Battery

Samsung’s plan to reshuffle it’s entire line up of phones is coming to fruition slowly and the M series’ first phone will launch soon. Several leaks have surfaced since the knowledge of the Galaxy M20 phone’s existence. However, most of the rumours have been mostly about the cosmetics and nothing was really known about the internals. But it seems that now new leaks have surfaced that details the phone and camera specifications. The phone will feature a 5000 mAh battery.

The Leak

There are very few phones currently in the market that have a 4500 mAh + battery. Some of these include the Motorola One Power, Honor 8X Max, Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1, Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 and Moto E5 Plus. These phones generally sell quite well since battery is a huge issue for people in India. Bigger screens also require bigger batteries which is why most phablets and bigger screen phones have bigger batteries. The phone will feature a tear- drop notch and will have a dual camera setup at the back. The front camera will supposedly be 8MP and the two cameras at the back will be 13 and 5 Megapixels. The Galaxy M20 measures in at 156.4 x 74.5 x8.8.

It will also retain the fingerprint sensor and will be an entry level phone. The phone is supposed to feature an Exynos 7885 SoC with 3GB of RAM. The Galaxy M20, being an entry level phone, will feature an LCD IPS screen measuring over 6.0 inch in diagonal. It will reportedly be released in the UK, Germany, France, Poland and Scandinavia and may be released in other countries on a later date. There are no leaks for the Galaxy M30 as of now but we are sure there will be more information coming out in the days to come.

Samsung Granted Patent For 3D Hologram Display

Earlier this year, Samsung had filed a patent for a Hologram reproducing display which has now been granted. The patents were submitted to WIPO (World Intellectual Property Office) and USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office). The patent was published on 29th November and it explains how a 3D image can be projected on the screen.

How Does It Work?

The display has a relay lens which contains a series of microlenses. The relay lens has a spatial light modulator (SLM) with a filter which ensures the hologram pattern is correctly reproduced. By using the intervention of light, a high-quality holographic image can be projected. The patent is well comprehended and it explains in detail how various lenses are used to project the image.

Will We See It?

It is hard to predict when a Samsung smartphone with this display technology will be officially released. Although the patent shows concrete evidence that Samsung can make the technology work, packing this technology into a fully functional smartphone will take some time.

3D Displays From Other Companies

A lot of companies in the past have experimented with 3D Hologram displays but nobody has been successful to make it mainstream. Earlier this year, Red showcased their Hydrogen One smartphone which can produce a 3D image without having to use a pair of 3D glasses. The 3D images are just displayed on the screen and not projected in the air.

Additionally, Microsoft had showcased a pair of mixed reality glasses which is called HoloLens. The HoloLens is a fully untethered VR headset with which the users can experience 3D holographic images. The level of immersion enables new forms of computing in which the user’s desktop could be the living room.

Here Is Why The Galaxy F Will Cost Over $1800

Samsung had previously showcased their foldable phone which will reportedly be called the Galaxy F. The smartphone with a foldable display is set to launch in the first half of 2019. Previously analysts claimed that the smartphone will carry a price tag of upwards 1500$ and the latest BOM (Bill Of Materials) strengthens that claim.

BOM Revelations

The BOM report is sourced from a Korean research agency, CGS-CIMB. It reveals that the display or the touch module of the Galaxy F will be its priciest component. In comparison to the iPhone XS Max, the display of the Galaxy F will cost 218 USD while the screen on the former costs only 120 USD. Other significantly expensive components include the application processor (SoC) and the memory. The Galaxy F is expected to have the latest Qualcomm 855 processor and 8/10 GB of RAM.

On the other hand, iPhone XS Max only has 4 GB of RAM. The price of both the processor and memory on the Galaxy F is about two times as that of the iPhone XS Max. The costs of all these components add up to a total BOM cost of 636 USD which in itself is quite high compared to the Galaxy S9+ and the iPhone XS Max.

Why 1800 USD Retail Price?

The question is obvious that why does a smartphone that costs 636 USD in parts is sold for 1800 USD. As the 636 USD, BOM does not include other costs like advertisements, assembly, and shipping. Gross margins on smartphones from the past reveal that companies need to maintain a profit margin of 55% to 65%. And a 65% gross margin on the Galaxy F comes out to 1800 USD justifying the claims of analysts.

Samsung Files Patents For New Notch Designs

Samsung held a developers conference last month where they showcased a variety of display notch designs. The designs included an Infinity-O, Infinity-U, and Infinity-V display notch designs. On December 10, Samsung launched the Galaxy A8s smartphone which has an Infinity-O display. The smartphone has a lateral cutout in the display for the front-facing selfie camera. Samsung has also filed patents for six other notch designs. The new patents seem to be a combination of the Infinity-O and the Infinity-U display notch designs.

New Notch Designs

Samsung filed the patents for six new notch designs to the KIPO (Korean Intellectual Property Office) which were granted on 10 December 2018. According to the patents, the height of the notch varies as per different models. Out of the six designs, the notch in four patents is placed below the bezel. While two patents reveal notches that are partly integrated into the bezel. The patent number 3 in this list has a “U” shaped cutout above the top bezel. Although its purpose is unclear as of now, it might be used to attach an accessor or this could be the earpiece of the phone. Certainly, these patents are of less importance to the end customer, it provides vital insight into the design language what future smartphones will look like.

The first Samsung smartphones with the Infinity-U and the Infinity-V display will launch in 2019. In the future, the notch can evolve into something like the ones on these patents. According to the source manufacturing smartphones with these types of notch designs are comparatively cheaper. Therefore, these notch designs are likely to be seen on midrange and budget smartphones. Samsung is not only gearing up to adopt the notch but they are also planning to bring them to the mass market.

Specifications

The leaks also suggest that the S10 will be available in three different versions. These include a regular version, a Plus version, and a flat version. The regular version and Plus version will feature curved displays while the flat version will have a non- curved or flat display. All the three phones will have the Infinity- O display. This design was patented by Samsung recently and features a camera cutout at the front of the screen. This gets rid of the notch that every other phone comes with these days.

This is also less obtrusive when it comes to media consumption such as videos or gaming. The phone will also feature an Ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. The fingerprint sensor, unlike the optical ones that we see on most phones, is said to read fingerprints using ultrasonic waves. It supposedly reads the ridges of the fingers in 3D. There will also be a three camera setup at the back with three different focal length lenses, namely standard, wide and tele.

Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus Renders Reveal Dual Front Cameras In Cutout

Samsung is the world’s number one smartphone manufacturer, but the company has been losing its market share recently. This is due to the rise of companies like OnePlus, Huawei and Xioami. Before the inception of Chinese OEM’s, Samsung was the only company that single-handedly led the Android bandwagon against Apple’s iPhones.

In recent years, these new companies have become a nuisance for Samsung. As not only do these companies sell their devices at a much cheaper price than Samsung, they are also developing a lot of the latest in-house technologies. In contrast, Samsung is not only a smartphone manufacturer, but also the leading supplier of display technologies. The company is reported to have used a lot of its latest display technologies for its upcoming flagship, the Galaxy S10. And according to the latest leak, the Galaxy S10 Plus will have an oval cutout for the dual front cameras in the display.

Galaxy S10 Plus Specifications

The renders of the upcoming Galaxy S10 Plus have been posted on Twitter by leakers Ben Geskin and OnLeaks. The leak suggests that the smartphone has a 6.44 inch Super AMOLED QHD+ display. Most noticeably, the display has edge-to-edge bezels which taper towards the side and an oval-shaped cutout which houses the dual front-facing cameras. Additionally, the smartphone also has triple rear cameras along with an LED flash. The top of the device is occupied by the sim tray and microphone hole while the bottom has the 3.5 mm jack, speaker grill, USB connector, and the primary microphone.

The bottom and top of the Galaxy S10 Plus also have antenna cutouts. The leak also claims that the smartphone has an in-display fingerprint sensor and the device also supports face unlock. The back of the device has a silver and blue colored gradient panel which looks really attractive.

Alleged Samsung Galaxy S10 5G Prototype Seen In Video

Samsung’s upcoming flagship, the Galaxy S10 is one of the most awaited smartphones right now. Expected to be launched in the early part of 2019, the Galaxy S10 has already been a subject to numerous leaks. These include reports about four different Galaxy S10 models, including a 5G variant. Now, a video has surfaced, in which the alleged 5G Galaxy S10 has been showcased.

The video is from what seems to be a 5G testing station in South Korea. The device in focus is being used by an executive from SK Telecom. They are using it to launch their 5G service in South Korea. In the video, a person is making a video call to demonstrate the speeds that can be achieved by the network, while using 5G. The most interesting aspect of the video is however, the smartphone which is being used for this demonstration.

The 5G S10

This unknown smartphone is obviously enclosed within a protective case to hide its design. However, there are two distinct factors which point toward the fact that it is a variant of the upcoming Galaxy S10. The first is the horizontal triple camera setup on the back, which is barely visible in the video and the 5G support.

The protective case of the phone is hiding what is probably the most important aspect of the phone, the display. The display is said to be truly bezel-less, without the use of a notch or a pop-up/sliding camera. Samsung has never implemented a notch on any of its smartphones. And this will be the next big upgrade in terms of design language from the company. The phone is also expected to feature a camera cut-out, like that of the upcoming Galaxy A8s. While there were reports of Samsung developing an in-display front facing camera to avoid using even the cut-out, this does not seem viable as of now. We might see that technology sometime in the future.

What’s More

A recent tweet by the famous leaker iceuniverse on Twitter has also mentioned that one of the variants of the Galaxy S10 might feature dual front cameras. This would give a really unique placement to the camera cut-out and it will be interesting to see how Samsung pulls this off.

The Galaxy S10 is expected to launch in three, if not four variants. These include a Galaxy S10 Lite, Galaxy S10 and a Galaxy S10+ variant. There are also talks of a Galaxy S10 Beyond X variant. This will supposedly have a 6.7 inch display with four rear cameras and dual front cameras.

Samsung Galaxy A8s With Camera Cutout Gets Certified By FCC

The Samsung Galaxy A8s was teased by Samsung earlier this month. Since then, the phone has been making headlines for its unique camera cut-out. The camera cut-out replaces the need for a notch or bezels, without the hassle of a sliding panel. The phone almost immediately found a competitor in form of the alleged Huawei Nova 4. Now, it seems like the launch of the smartphone is near as it has been certified by the FCC. This tells us some of its specifications too!

FCC Listing

The position of the icons on the left has moved due to the camera cut-out

A screenshot from the FCC listing reveals some of its key specs. The phone has a 19:5:9 aspect ratio, owing to the hole in its display. This camera cut-out is located on the right side of the phone. Registered under the model number SM-G8870, the phone also has adaptive fast charging support. This is a common feature in most mid-range smartphones. The camera cut-out cannot be seen in the screenshot, but we can see that there are no notifications towards the right top corner do the smartphone. This is the exact position of the camera cut-out. It also gives us a look at how the display will look like to the user.

Earlier leaks have given us a fair idea about the device as well. The phone is said to have a 6.3 inch FHD+ display with a 2340 x 1080 px resolution, with 2.5D glass. It is said to be running on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 SoC which is based on the 10nm manufacturing process. This will be supported by the Adreno 616 GPU. It will have 6 GB of RAM and a 128 GB of storage, which is also expandable up to 512 GB, according to reports.

Samsung Patents Design For Folding Phone With Dual Displays

Samsung has been on a patent-filing spree recently. From in-display cameras to an entire display which doubles up as the fingerprint scanner, they’ve got it all covered. Recently, one of Samsung’s long pending designs, that of the folding phone. The folding phone was shown by the company at the Samsung Developer Conference held earlier this month and the device is expected to enter production in the early parts of next year. Now, Samsung has patented a folding dual display smartphone, quite different form the existing foldable phone.

The patent for this new phone was filed early this year, in May. It has now been published and describes a smartphone with two separate housings. Each of these have an almost full-sized display. While the design of the foldable was shown, it has many variations compared to this patent. The new patent lists two full sized screens which work independently. The foldable phone can either be used as a smartphone when folded or as a tablet when opened fully. Android is also developing a separate OS for the device, to help support it better.

The Patent

The two display housings are independent of each other and area pulls together by the means of a magnet. You can also fold the device in a way to have both the displays facing outside. The patent describes the phone to be extremely versatile in terms of functionality and lists some of its functions. Data such as the time, status bar, battery and signal strength are shown on the left display. You can also use this screen to display a keyboard, while the content is shown on the other display of the phone.

The smartphone also has two cameras. Additionally, a camera, flash and speaker are also placed on the front of the phone. The display on the left also has a camera, lighting sensor and a proximity sensor. Additionally, the phone will also have an audio jack which will be placed on either the top or the bottom of the phone. The volume and power buttons are placed on the right side of the display.

Samsung Galaxy S10 To Have 12 GB Of RAM And 1 TB Storage

It seems like Samsung is going all out with its upcoming flagship, the Galaxy S10. Various leaks up till now have told us about some of the details of the phone. And they are every bit interesting. But a latest leak claims something even more interesting.

Massive Memory

A report by GF Securities in Honk Kong has detailed new facts. It says that Samsung is likely to launch a smartphone with 12 GB of RAM along with a massive 1 TB of internal storage. Some reports back in October had also shown alleged images of a listing of a Samsung phone with 12 GB of RAM. Considering the fact that Samsung is not holding back on innovations anymore. Also, the Galaxy S10 is Samsung’s shot at retaining the top position world-wide, 12 GB of RAM looks like a real possibility.

Apart from the crazy memory specifications, the phone is said to launch in four different variants. And these variants will differ not only in price but also a lot of specifications. For starters, they will all have different display sizes, and one of the them, even a different display type altogether. This includes a cheaper Galaxy S10 Lite and a higher end Galaxy S10+.
