    Interestingly enough, some sources also claim that the phone has a triple rear camera setup and not a dual rear camera. This can be a possibility as none of the teasers actually show the entire camera setup. They always cut the phone at a place where the third lens os not visible. However, it is also possible that this is not a third sensor and is simply the LED flash on the back. We will have to wait till the launch of the device on December 11th to know more details about the phone.

  • Upcoming Xiaomi Smartphone Gets FCC Certification

    Upcoming Xiaomi Smartphone Gets FCC Certification

    An upcoming Xiaomi smartphone has passed the FCC certification. This new smartphone bears the ID 2AFZZ-RMSC3GG and is said to target the budget conscious buyers in the Android smartphone market. Sources also claim it could be a more affordable phone from the Mi 8 series by Xiaomi. However, it is not clear as to which markets will see the launch of this device and whether it will make its way to India.

    Not much is known about the device, but there are quite a few specifications which are seen on the listing. The Xiaomi smartphone only supports single-band WiFi and only works on WiFi b/g/n 2.4 GHz bands. This means it will not support dual-band WiFi or the latest WiFi 802.11ac. Also mentioned in the listing is that it is a dual SIM smartphone. However, only one SIM card can support 4G connectivity at a given point of time even though it supports dual standby.

    Also mentioned in the listing is the fact that the phone has Bluetooth 4.2 support and not the latest Bluetooth 5.0. The listing also reveals the physical dimensions of the phone. The phone has a 5.9 inch screen and is around 71 mm wide. It is also reported to have dual rear cameras placed horizontally next to each other.

    It is highly probable that this will be another China exclusive smartphone and might not see its launch in India. However, it is interesting to note that the Xiaomi smartphone does have Band 4.0 support. India’s leading telecom company, Reliance used the Band 4.0 technology in its Jio service. This might give us hope that the phone will be launched in India.

  • Huawei Nova 4 With Camera Cutout Leaked

    Huawei Nova 4 With Camera Cutout Leaked

    Huawei has been unclear about the launch of the Nova 4 but it seems that the leaks just won’t stop. The Nova 4 made an appearance recently at the Nova series’ brand ambassador’s party. Chinese singer and member of musical pop group TFBoys, Jackson Yee had thrown a grand birthday party. It was for his eighteenth birthday. The Nova 4 was spotted in his hand in the event when he showed it on stage. The event was incidentally live streamed as well.

    What we know so far

    The Nova 4 was rumoured to have an in display camera hole which has become somewhat of a trend for smartphone manufacturers to be leaking. Samsung recently showcased renders of a camera cutout design called the Infinity O.Some devices such as the Vivo NEX and Oppo Find X have gone their own ways to make the screen truly notch free but the camera hole concept also seems to have caught on with manufacturers. The leaked images prove that the Nova 4 indeed will have a camera cutout. It can be seen in the images that the hole is tucked away in the corner of the screen, in line with the battery and network icons on top. The design seems to be far less intrusive compared to a traditional or even a teardrop notch.

    As can be seen from the photographs, it seems like the phone has large bezels but on closer inspection, we could see the bezel is actually the back cover of the phone. The back of the phone wasn’t shown on the video so that still remains a surprise. There is very little information regarding the soon to be launched Huawei Nova 4. From what we know so far, according to rumours it is believed to have an LCD display and a Kirin 980 processor. There are no specific launch dates as of now. However it will be launched sometime in December of this year.

  • Nokia 2.1 Plus Specs Revealed Through Listing

    Nokia 2.1 Plus Specs Revealed Through Listing

    Sometime back, a Nokia device with the model number TA-1136 was spotted at Bluetooth SIG. At that time, the device was believed to be the Nokia 8.1, which is the international version of the Nokia X7, owing to its Bluetooth 5.0 support. However, the TA-1136 model has now received approval from the FCC in the US and the listing has revealed some of the specifications of the device. The specifications reveal that this is not the Nokia 8.1, but the possibly the Nokia 2.1 Plus.

    The Nokia 2.1 was launched earlier this year and offered really attractive features at a low price. The company also claims that the device offers a 2-day battery life. 

    The addition of the Plus to its name indicates that the phone will sport a larger display. The Nokia 2.1 has a 5.5 inch display, so we can expect something bigger than that. Additionally, the RAM and storage variants listed on the site reveal that it is indeed a successor to the Nokia 2.1. The listing has a phone with 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage. While the Nokia 2.1 had only 8 GB of storage, the larger storage capacity might owe itself to the Plus moniker. 

    However, the listing also reveals that the device will not be available in the US. The phone does not have 5 GHz Wi-Fi support, which means that HMD Global will be disabling some of the network bands on the device, causing it to be unavailable in the US.

    While the display size and storage options might be different from the Nokia 2.1, as mentioned above, the rest of the specifications on the Nokia 2.1 Plus might remain the same.

    Nokia 2.1 Specs

    The Nokia 2.1 has a 5.5 inch IPS LCD display with a 1280 x 720 resolution. The display and a 16:9 aspect ratio with a 267 ppi pixel density, along with Gorilla  Glass for protection. The phone has an aluminium frame along with a plastic back.

The device has an 8 MP rear camera and a 5 MP front facing camera. It runs Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box and is a part of Google’s Android One Program. Android Go is a custom version of Android built for phones with lower processing abilities. Under the hood, it has a 4,000 mAh battery which gives the device a 2 day battery life claim.

  • Honor 10 Lite Specs Revealed In Pre-Order Listing

    Honor 10 Lite Specs Revealed In Pre-Order Listing

    The Honor 10 Lite is an upcoming smartphone by the Chinese smartphone manufacturer. While the company has announced that the device will be launching on the 21st of November, a listing has revealed some the specifications of the device.

    The Honor 10 Lite is a cheaper alternative to the Honor 10. As the name suggests, the device will be lighter on your pocket and will also have some toned down specs when compared to the Honor 10. Some earlier reports that speculated it is just another rebranded Huawei device. However, it is not so and we will see the launch of a brand new device.

    Honor 10 Lite Specs

    Listed on Huawei’s on online store and Vmall, some of the specifications of the device have been leaked. These include  the fact that it will run on the Kirin 710 chipset. It will also have GPU Turbo pre-installed. GPU Turbo is a technology used by the Chinese manufacturer to ensure that the gaming performance of its devices are boosted, even if it does not have a well performing GPU. Other features include a 5.84 inch LCD display with a 19:9 aspect ratio.

    The phone is said to have a dual rear camera setup, which is vertically aligned, as seen in most of the Honor phones these days. No details about the camera specifications are available as of now. The back will also sport a physical fingerprint sensor for securely unlocking the device. It is also expected to have a gradient finish like most of the Honor devices these days.

  • Samsung’s New Mid-Range ‘Galaxy M’ Series Leaked

    Samsung’s New Mid-Range ‘Galaxy M’ Series Leaked

    Earlier reports had suggested that the Samsung will combine its Galaxy J, Galaxy C and Galaxy On series into a single ‘Galaxy M’ series. The M series is set to be the new mid-range series from Samsung. It might focus on producing more value-for-money phones. This move from Samsung comes in the wake of cut-throat competition from Chinese manufacturers who are hurting the Korean giant’s smartphone sales big time, especially in South Asia.

    The New Galaxy M

    Now, a leak ‘confirms’ that two devices from this series are on the way. Bearing the model numbers SM-M205F and SM-M305F, they have been dubbed the Galaxy M20 and Galaxy M30. The leak also suggest that there are many more Galaxy M devices on the way. The source also claims to know the storage variants of the devices. The SM-M205F has 32 GB and 64 GB storage variants while the SM-M305F has 64 GB and 128 GB variants. Both the devices have dual SIM variants, while some countries might see the launch of single SIM variants as well.

    Another recent report also suggests that the devices will not have AMOLED panels and will instead carry LCD panels. The inclusion of LCD panels will ensure that Samsung can keep the prices of these models down and focus on providing more features. The fact that Samsung mid-range phones lacked attractive specs was a huge complaint from consumers in the past. The tech giant maybe looking to change that by cutting corners in areas such as the display.

    One UI

    Samsung had recently showcased the One UI for its devices at the Samsung Developer Conference. The One UI seems to be a great improvement over Samsung’s present UI which can be bit confusing and tedious to use. The company has announced that its latest flagships will be getting the new UI. We can only hope that they extend its reach to these mid-range phones as well.

  • Samsung Galaxy S10+ To Have 93.4% Screen-To-Body Ratio

    Samsung Galaxy S10+ To Have 93.4% Screen-To-Body Ratio

    The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S10 flagship is one of the most anticipated devices, set to launch next year. Samsung is has set its focus on a lot on innovations this time around and the numerous leaks and rumours about the device seem to hold that true. The phone might have three variants, varying screens, an in-display fingerprint sensor. Most recently, reports of a 93 % screen-to-body ratio have surfaced.

    Samsung Galaxy S10

    Such a high screen-to-body ratio can only hint at one thing, a bezel-less, notch-less display. It is well known that Samsung will not be adapting the notch, especially for their next flagship. So the obvious conclusion is that Samsung  has actually developed the in-display camera technology for its upcoming flagship. The in-display camera sensor will eliminate the need for a notch or a bezel, thus ensuring that the device can reach the said screen-top-body ratio. To put things into perspective, the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3, with its sliding camera has a 93 % screen-to-body ratio.

    The Latest In Innovation

    Samsung is said to be working on an in-display front facing camera as well. The company had introduced this concept at the 2018 Samsung OLED forum. The company had not only spoken about the in-display front camera, but also other OLED technologies such as a screen sound technology. Recently, a Samsung patent surfaced which showed a way to turn the entire display into a fingerprint sensor. This could have multiple possibilities in the future such as using any part of the display to unlock the phone. Along with using multiple fingers for authentication and not just one and also the ability for the device to constantly read your fingerprint while you sue it, for advanced security.

    Recently, Samsung had teased the Galaxy A8s which is sad to have a camera cut-out for on its screen. While this is not exactly an in-display camera sensor, it might be the first step towards it. Samsung might be saving all of its best features for the flagship galaxy S10.

  • Asus Zenfone 6 Leak Shows In-Display Camera

    Asus Zenfone 6 Leak Shows In-Display Camera

    The Asus Zenfone 5Z was launched in India earlier this year and got a pretty good reception. The Zenfone Max Pro M1 was also an instant hit with its massive battery and attractive features. Latest leaks of the alleged Asus Zenfone 6 show that the company is not slowing down and plans on keeping up its streak of great smartphones.

    The Future Of Displays

    The leaked images showcase various prototypes of the Asus Zenfone 6. All of these devices sport a glass back and a large display. However, there are various combinations, with different camera setups and unique displays. The most striking one is that of a camera cut-out, which is said to be present in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy A8s as well. Different prototypes show different positions for the camera cut-out. It is placed on the left and right sides, as well as the in the middle of the display. The camera cut-out seems to be the next big step towards a bezel-less display. This might eliminate the need of having a sliding camera mechanism as seen on the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3.

    The next prototype however, showcases the Asus Zenfone 6 with a tiny water-drop notch, which houses the front camera sensor. This is not all, the prototypes also showcase two different variants for the camera setup. One of the prototypes has a triple main camera setup while the other has a more common, dual camera setup.

    While the camera cut-out on a display sure does look better and will take up lesser space, the placement is still an issue. If the company will place it on the sides rather than in the centre, the entire symmetry of the display could be lost. The notch on any phone is specially designed to ensure that the icons on each side of the notch are balanced equally and displayed in an aesthetic manner.

    However, it is important to note that these are just prototypes of the devices. The retail unit might not be similar. But, we do hope that Asus brings some great changes to its next big smartphone.

  • OnePlus 6T Roundup: All You Need To Know

    OnePlus 6T Roundup: All You Need To Know

    The launch of the OnePlus 6T is set for the 29th of October, barely a few days away. The device has been subjected to many leaks, including the most recent one which detailed the alleged specifications sheet. With almost so many rumours about the device out there, we round it up for you to ensure that you know everything there is about the upcoming flagship.

    Design

    The OnePlus 6T does sport some major design changes. The device has water-drop notch on the display, compared to the traditional notch featured by its predecessor. The water-drop notch is comparatively smaller and covers an area which is just enough to house the front camera sensor. The device is expected to have thinner bezels as well, resulting in a higher screen-to-body ratio. On the back, the device has a dual camera setup accompanied by the LED flash. The physical fingerprint scanner is no longer present as the device has now incorporated an in-display fingerprint scanner.

    Display

    The OnePlus 6T has a 6.4 inch screen with a 2340 x 1080 px resolution. This is comparatively larger than the 6.28 inch 2280 x 1080 px display on the OnePlus 6. It has an aspect ratio of 19:5:9 and an 86% screen-to-body ratio. Additionally, the display has Corning Gorilla Glass 6 for protection.

    Processor

    There are no shockers or surprise elements in this segment. The OnePlus 6T runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC and has 6 GB / 8 GB RAM variants. It has the Adreno 630 GPU and 128 GB and 512 GB storage variants. While some of the earlier reports said that the device will have a microSD card slot, the alleged specifications sheet does not mention anything of this sort. This is not surprising as OnePlus never offered expandable storage and 128 GB on the base model is plenty of storage for a smartphone.  The device is running on Android 9 Pie and as mentioned by the company, the ‘best version of Oxygen OS’. This includes advanced navigational and gesture controls, along with a UI which is extremely intuitive and easy to use.

    Additionally, the device has a single-core score of 2387 and a multi-core score of 8925 on Geekbench. While this is pretty close to the scores of the OnePlus 6, these might see an increase as the devices that are being tested are pre-production units. However, there won’t be much of a difference as the internals are the same as that of the OnePlus 6.

    Camera & Battery
    OnePlus 6T Camera Sample

    The OnePlus 6T has a 16 MP+ 20 MP dual camera setup with an f/1.7  aperture, exactly the same as the OnePlus 6. While the sensors are the same, the company has made some software changes for improved performance on the upcoming device. The device has an improved Night Mode for better low-light performance and features such as Quick Capture, Super Slo-Mo recording and Portrait Mode. The front camera has a 20 MP sensor equipped with f/1.7 aperture.

    The OnePlus 6T will have a 3,700 mAh battery supported by OnePlus’s propriety Dash Charging. The device is also rumoured to support wireless charging this time around.

    In-Display Fingerprint

    One of the biggest changes on the OnePlus 6T is the in-display fingerprint scanner. According to OnePlus, this is the most secure version and offers a higher unlock speed. The company claims to have put in a lot of hard work to ensure that it reaches the standard of a OnePlus device.

    Additionally, the device lacks a 3.5 mm headphone jack. While this has caused some unrest amongst OnePlus fans, the company has ensured of alternatives which will be easily available. The company had announced a pair of Type-C Bullets a few months back, which will be compatible with the device. They also mentioned that these will be easily available unlike the Wireless Bullets which were pretty short in supply.

    Price

    The device is said to cost Rs 37,999 for the 6 GB + 128 GB variant, Rs 40,999 for its 8 GB + 128 GB variant and Rs 44,999 for its 8 GB + 256 GB variant. 

    The above-mentioned features, mostly cover everything there is to know about the device. However, it is to be noted that these are based on various leaks and rumours and might not exactly reflect the device that is about to be launched.

    OnePlus 6T Specifications Leaked Along With Official Images

    The OnePlus 6T is set to launch next week and has fallen prey to another leak, yet again. It seems like the closer we are getting to the launch of a smartphone, the more we get to know about it. Unlike other leaks, this source claims to have the original specifications sheet along with official pictures from OnePlus. This is probably the most extensive leak of the OnePlus 6T until now and if it is true, gives us a very close look at the device.

    Specifications Sheet

    According to the alleged specifications sheet, the OnePlus 6T has the following features. It has a 6.4 inch Optic AMOLED display with a 2340 x 1080 px FHD+ resolution. The display sports a water drop notch and has an aspect ratio of 19:5:9. It has a screen-to-body ratio of 86%. The size of the display is not all that has improved and the device has Corning Gorilla Glass 6 for protection. The device measures 157.5 x 74.9 x 8.2mm and weighs 180 grams. It lacks a 3.5 mm headphone jack.

    The device also has an in-display fingerprint scanner to unlock it securely. The device runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC and is available in 6 GB and 8 GB RAM variants. In terms of storage, the device has 128 GB and 256 GB options. Contrary to some earlier reports, the OnePlus 6T does not have microSD card support. Under the hood, it packs a 3,700 mAh battery and has a USB Type-C port for charging and data transfer.

    The device is running on Android 9 Pie, which was expected as the OnePlus 6 is already on the latest version of Android. The device has a dual 16 MP + 20 MP rear camera setup, and both the sensors are equipped with an f/1.7 aperture. It has features such as Quick Capture, Portrait Mode, and super Slo-mo recording. The front facing camera is a 20 MP sensor with an f/1.7 aperture.

  • Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Might Launch With Qualcomm Snapdragon 855

    Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Might Launch With Qualcomm Snapdragon 855

    Xiaomi has been boasting a lot of ground breaking features that their upcoming Mi Mix 3 smartphone will have. Xiaomi has already confirmed that the Mi Mix 3 will be the first commercial phone to support 5G connectivity. A teaser posted by Xiaomi suggests that the Mi Mix 3 might have 10 GB of RAM as well.

    Qualcomm Snapdragon 855

    A recent leak from China claims that the smartphone will run on the Snapdragon 855 processor. It will be the successor to the Snapdragon 845  which is present on most Android flagships in 2018. Additionally, rumors propose that Qualcomm has changed the naming scheme for their processors and the new Snapdragon 855 will have the 8150 moniker.

    The leak could be real as in the past, Qualcomm has partnered with Xiaomi to debut new processors. During the Xiaomi Mi 8 SE launch, Qualcomm debuted their Snapdragon 710 SoC. The leaked notice board also reveals some other key details about the upcoming Xiaomi Mi Mix 3. The smartphone has a 6.4 inch display though information about the type of panel is not available. It is powered by a 3,850 mAh battery and in terms of memory & storage it has 8 GB of RAM & 256 GB of storage. However, this might not be the top end variant which will have a higher, 10 GB of RAM .

    The leaked notice board does seem real as a Xiaomi Ninebot Mini scooter and a poster of a Xiaomi smartphone can be seen in the background.

    The notice board also acknowledges the release date of 25th October which is already confirmed by Xiaomi. According to previous teasers, the Mi Mix 3 will have a sliding display which conceals the speakerphone and front cameras. Moreover, the Mi Mix 3 might have an in-display fingerprint scanner and will record super slow motion videos at 960 FPS.

    At the moment we can only wait for the tomorrow’s launch event & let Xiaomi officially announce the Mi Mix 3.

  • Honor Magic 2 Official Images Surface

    Honor Magic 2 Official Images Surface

    The Honor Magic 2 has been in quite a few leaks recently, as is the case with any smartphone these days. These leaks have given us a rough look at what the device looks like. Now, a few more images have surfaced, which are official images by the company itself. These images give us the first proper look at the device and some of its features.

    Design

    The images show the Honor Magic 2, along with its box. They show two new colours, a gradient blue and a gradient pink. The design language and use of colours is very familiar as it has been seen on a few Honor devices before. The images also show us the box, which is black in colour with Gold text on it. We do not know if these are retail boxes or are just being used for the purpose of this photograph.

    Moving on to the most interesting aspect, the device itself. The back of the device shows off a triple camera setup which is quite unique. Although the setup is vertically aligned, Honor has coupled two sensors with the LED flash. A bigger sensor, is housed slightly away from the other sensors and the flash. This sensor appears to be bigger and might be the primary sensor of the camera setup. The design is unique, and it is refreshing to see something which is different from the rest.

    Features

    On the front, we can clearly see the bezel-less display with close to a 100% screen-to-body ratio. The sliding mechanism shows two front facing cameras and a sensor for the 3D Face Unlock technology which Honor would be using for this device. Due to the placement of the front facing cameras and the sensors in the slider, the Honor Magic 2 can achieve its almost bezel-less display. None of the images show a physical fingerprint scanner. This can mean either of two things. The Honor Magic 2 might be using an in-display fingerprint scanner  or it might have not included a fingerprint scanner and will be totally dependant on the 3D Face Unlock technology for security.

    Previous leaks suggest that the device has a 6.4 inch FHD+ display and is running on the Kirin 980 chipset. It has 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage along with a 3,400 mAH battery. The battery is supported by Huawei’s 40W  fast charging technology. The device is said to run EMUI 9 based on Android 9 out of the box.

    OnePlus 6T Ultimate Limited Edition Leaks

    OnePlus is all set to launch their latest flagship, the OnePlus 6T. The smartphone was scheduled to launch on 30th October but now has been preponed to 29th October. As Apple has announced their launch event for 30th October. The conflicting dates would steal OnePlus’s thunder and in order to minimise the damage, the company took this drastic step.

    Recently a limited edition variant of the smartphone has been listed online on a Swedish retailer, Webhallen. The listing states that only 100 pieces of the OnePlus 6T ‘Ultimate Limited Edition’ will be available. This could be a stunt by the Swedish retailer to gain some attention or an actual variant. As OnePlus has previously launched such limited edition devices. The OnePlus 5T was available in a Star Wars edition and the OnePlus 6 had a limited Avengers edition. If such a device exists it will be available at the top end variant with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB ROM.
