    Redmi Note 8 Design Leaked, Features A Quad Rear Camera

    Redmi is one of the most renowned company in the Asian market. The company is a Xiaomi subsidiary and has historically focused heavily in the mid to affordable segment of smartphones. It has seen massive success in these ranges, especially with the Note series. Now, its latest entry named Redmi Note 8 has its designs leaked which showcases a quad camera setup.

    Redmi Note 8

    The new camera setup would be a first in Redmi’s series of mid range smartphones. The company’s General Manager shared a post on Weibo which had a video that confirmed the mass production of a 64MP quad camera smartphone. Previously, we had separately reported on a 64MP camera on a Redmi device and a rumour on the Note 8. Now, it seems that it might just be one and the same.

    According to a leaked render, the rear of the smartphone features a vertical camera setup that consists of quad camera sensors. It is identical to the mass production video of a smartphone shared online. Hence, it seemingly confirms that the Redmi Note 8 will feature a 64MP quad camera setup. Notably, the confirmation of the 64MP quad camera smartphone arrived half a month prior but didn’t reveal the name.

    Xiaomi Redmi Note 8

    Design

    The image leaked of the Redmi Note 8 portrays a vertically stacked triple camera module flanked by a fourth sensor on the left side. On top of the lone fourth sensor is a dual tone LED flash. The back carries the signature Redmi branding with a “designed by Xiaomi” tag. It can be observed that the left of the device houses the the volume rockers while the right features the power button. Furthermore, there is no indication of a rear mounted fingerprint scanner. So, it is likely to feature an in display fingerprint scanner.

    Apple To Launch The iPhone 11 On September 10

    American technology giant Apple is expected to launch three new iPhones later this year. These smartphones will be the successor to the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and the iPhone XR from last year. While the design and key specifications of the handsets have already been leaked multiple times in the past, no information on when the devices will see the light of the day was known. Until now, as a new report reveals that the alleged iPhone 11 series will be launched on the 10th of September.

    iPhone 11

    Apple iPhone 11

    The aforementioned report arrives via leaked screenshots found in the latest developer betas of iOS 13 and iPadOS. The images showcase the home screen of an iPhone and an iPad respectively with the Calender application showing the date as Tuesday, the 10th of September. While the image doesn’t confirm anything, what’s interesting is that the name of the file is “HoldForRelease”, which indicates that it is indeed the launch date of the upcoming iPhone 11 series.

    The date is further backed by the fact that in a similar leak last year, an image was found in iOS 12 Beta hinting at a launch date of 12th of September for the 2018 iPhones. That is indeed the date when the smartphones were unveiled, so the latest leak makes some sense. The image also has a screenshot showcasing another date, September 23. This is believed to be the date when Apple releases the iOS 13 stable builds for all the supported devices.

    iPhone XR

    Apple historically has stuck to launching the latest version of the iPhone on the second Tuesday or Wednesday for the past few years. So, the launch date of 10th September, which is the second Tuesday of the month makes the leak credible. The upcoming iPhone 11 series, which may consist of three devices is speculated to be a minor update over their predecessors.

    Earlier this year, the US commerce department designated Huawei to an entity list based on allegations of sending sensitive user data to the Chinese government. This move barred all American companies to terminate all sorts of business relations with the Chinese corporation.

    Although the ban has now been lifted Huawei has still not been able to reform its relations with the United States-based companies. It seems that a hindrance as big as this has hardly made any effect on the companies plans. It has been launching aggressively price feature-laden smartphones at regular intervals.

    Huawei Nova 5T Android Enterprise Listing

    According to a fresh Android Enterprise listing, Huawei will soon launch another high-end smartphone which surprisingly will have a compact form factor. Ever since the bid adieu of Sony’s compact Xperia smartphones, the industry has been demanding for smaller devices which have not been delivered yet.

    The upcoming Huawei smartphone will be the Nova 5T and it will be part of the Nova 5 smartphone lineup which was unveiled earlier this year.

    As per the images listed on Google site, the Huawei Nova 5T has an attractive design which is due to the front which is dominated by an edge to edge display.

    • 8 GB + 256 GB

    For securely and rapidly logging in to the UI, it also has a fingerprint sensor. Although the listing does not reveal it exact location, we believe it will be mounted on the rear. Besides, the Huawei Nova 5T runs on the latest Android 9 Pie and has NFC support. 

    Unfortunately, the listing has not revealed any details of the processor or the camera sensors incorporated on the smartphone. Therefore, they will be revealed at the official launch until another leak reveals them as well.

    Most electronic devices today like smartphones, cameras and smartwatches use a lithium-ion battery to power them. The technology has been around for several decades now and has evolved drastically in the last few years. however, just like any other piece of technology, it has too reached a saturation point; where it is almost impossible to increase its efficiency to hold a charge longer and replenish it fast enough. Not to mention that they have always been a fire hazard and this a potential safety concern. Now, the latest reports reveal that Korean electronics giant Samsung is planning to change the future by launching a smartphone with a graphene battery soon. This news arrives from serial gadget leaker Evan Blass who claims the handset may be ready by the year 2021.

    Renowned gadget leaker Evan Blass has shared on Twitter that the modern-day batteries on smartphones are suboptimal. To counter the many problems of the Lithium-Ion batteries Samsung is planning to launch a device with a graphene battery by next year or by 2021. The new technology will allow for super-fast charging, capable of fully charging the handset within a half-hour. Furthermore, Samsung may be planning to change the battery technology to save another Galaxy Note 7 fiasco from happening again.

    While the company is working on the said smartphone as of now, Blass says that there still is a need to increase the battery capacity while keeping the cost down. Due to the many advancements in Lithium technology, the batteries are very affordable to manufacture today. Shifting to a new material may thus result in increased cost of materials and research.

    Samsung Launches The Galaxy A10s With Dual Rear Cameras

    Samsung has quietly launched its latest budget smartphone, the Galaxy A10s through a blog post. As the name suggests, the device is an upgraded variant of the Galaxy A10 which was launched back in the month of February. The latest handset boasts of notable improvements in terms of battery and camera performance.

    The Samsung Galaxy A10s measures 156.9 x 75.8 x 7.8mm and weighs 168g. Like its predecessor, the smartphone features a polycarbonate body with a glossy coloured back. It has a 6.2 inch TFT display with a resolution of 1520 x 720 px. To maximise the screen real estate, it also has an Infinity V style notch on the top of the display, just like the Galaxy A10. For biometrics and rapidly accessing the handset, a fingerprint scanner is present on the rear along with the support for face unlock. The addition of the fingerprint scanner is a newly added feature, as it was not present on the previous generation of the Galaxy A10s.

    Under the hood, the Samsung Galaxy A10s is kitted with an unknown Exynos SoC. The chipset is comprised of an Octa-core CPU and an unnamed GPU. In terms of optics, the smartphone has a dual rear camera setup, which is an upgrade from the single rear camera found on its predecessor. The primary lens is an f/1.8 aperture equipped 13MP sensor; which is combined with an f/2.4 aperture equipped 2MP depth sensor. For selfies, an f/2.0 aperture equipped 8MP camera is present on the notch on top of the display. The handset will ship with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage, the latter of which is expandable via microSD cards of up to 512GB in capacity.
