Last year, a new smartphone manufacturer entered into the Indian phone market. 10.or or Tenor is actually a Chinese company but its phones are currently only available in India. Its first phone, the 10.or G which was announced last year may soon get a successor as a phone benchmarked as the 10.or G2 has been spotted on Geekbench.
The Geekbench result shows that the 10.or G2 will be a mid-range smartphone like its predecessor. The 10.or G2 was benchmarked yesterday and the result says it has a Snapdragon 660 processor. Unfortunately, that info is incorrect.
The first thing that gives it away as not being the Snapdragon 660 is the base frequency which is lower than that of other SDM660-powered phones. The core scores are also lower. The 10.or G2 is actually powered by a Snapdragon 636 processor which is actually a reasonable upgrade over the 10.or G’s Snapdragon 626.
This isn’t the first time Geekbench has incorrectly identified the chipset in a phone. Another phone incorrectly benchmarked as having a Snapdragon 660 processor instead of a Snapdragon 636 processor is the HTC U12 Life. See the benchmark result below.
The benchmark result also reveals it runs Android 8.1 oreo. Not the latest but seeing as the 10.or G launched with Android 7.1 Nougat and is upgradeable to Android 8.0 Oreo, we want to believe an update to Android Pie will be made for the 10.or G2 when it is announced. The RAM has also been upped to 6GB. There is a chance there will be a 4GB RAM version and maybe even a 3GB RAM version.
The 10.or G launched with dual rear cameras, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner stereo speakers and a 4,000mAh battery. Hopefully, its successor retains them. However, what we don’t want to see are those huge bezels which pretty much died in 2017. A switch to an 18:9 or higher display is what we are expecting the 10.or G2 to have.
