Leaked renders show the Galaxy Z Flip 5 with a larger cover screen

Apr 3, 2023

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 4 is a brilliant clamshell foldable but unlike its competitors, the smartphone comes with a smaller outer screen with limited functions. It can be used to see your current notifications, battery percentage, date, and time, but not a whole lot more. However, it seems the Korean company is planning on upsizing the cover display with the Galaxy Z Flip 5. Some leaked renders show evidence for the same.

A design render shared by Sammobile suggests Samsung is going to do some major changes on its upcoming clamshell foldable. As you can see in the image, the cover screen for the Galaxy Z Flip 5 appears to be quite a bit larger compared to previous models. It can be seen taking up most of the space on the front outer display and is definitely larger than what Oppo offers on the latest Find N2 Flip.

While it is unclear how Samsung will utilize a larger cover screen, we can expect it to offer far more functions than its predecessor. It is possible that the brand might allow full-fledged Android apps to be used on the outer display, especially since numerous third-party developers are already doing so. It may also include support for timers, the camera, and weather forecast.

Although the exact dimensions of the cover screen are not disclosed, sources tell Sammobile that it will fall within the range of 3 to 4 inches. Nevertheless, based on the measurements of the Galaxy Z Flip 4, the publication anticipates that it will most likely be closer to the lower end of that range.

Huawei Chairman says the US sanctions will benefit China’s chip industry

Apr 3, 2023

Huawei has claimed that the sustained US sanction regime that almost crippled it will ultimately benefit the Chinese chip industry. Huawei had come under a raft of sanctions by the United States government during the Donald Trump presidency. The sanctions regime has however continued with the Joe Biden administration. Huawei’s Chairman, Eric Xu, says that China’s chip industry will have a rebirth.

Huawei lost its leading global position in the smartphone and telecommunications hardware market as a result of the US sanctions. The company also lost access to Google Play services, in addition to its inability to access US chip vendors. It has however risen stoutly to the debilitating challenges, developing its in-house operating system HarmonyOS and navigating expertly over the chip challenge. Huawei had the credible prospect of becoming the world’s number-one smartphone manufacturer before the sanctions hit it hard.

China is not allowed to purchase extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines for producing modern chips. Although SMIC is still developing its capability in China, Xu believes the future is bright for China-made chips. Such sanctions have expectedly pushed China into action, but it is unclear how long before it turns the corner.

Huawei reported a 69% dip in revenue in 2022, which was its biggest decline since 2011. Xu puts Huawei’s revenue setbacks as a result of a challenging external environment and non-market factors. The CEO however says Huawei has continued to forge ahead, doing everything to maintain business continuity and serve its customers.

Huawei hopes to benefit massively from China’s growth in chip-making capacity. This could help to further position the brand in its quest to rise to its pre-eminent position before the US sanctions kicked in in 2020.

Samsung plans chip packaging test line in Japan, move seeks to deepen connections

Samsung is apparently planning on setting up a new chip packaging test line in Japan. The move from the company is likely a way to deepen its cooperation in the region. The news arrives from five sources close to the matter.

The five people added that the South Korean tech giant is looking to boost its advanced packaging operation whilst building stronger connections with the semiconductor equipment and materials maker in Japan. Furthermore, it would also be the first such test line in the Asian country for Samsung, which is also the world’s largest memory chips manufacturer. This news also arrives as the United States seeks to work together with its allies to counter China’s advancements in semiconductor technology.

Back on Friday, Japan said that it would restrict exports of 23 types of chip making tools, which aligns its technology trade controls with the US’ effort to stop China from building advanced chips. The tech giant is also looking to establish the facility in the Kanagawa prefecture that is near Tokyo. Interestingly, this is also where Samsung has a research and development center.

Unfortunately, finer details regarding the matter like the timeline and investment are still unclear. Although, the total investment would likely be in tens of billions of yens or near 75 million US Dollars. The brand is looking to deepen its relations with the Japanese companies, while also looking at the region for its relatively low labor cost and presence of these chip equipment makers. Simply put, the region offers Samsung access to a local “ecosystem”, as per one of the sources.

In a move that could potentially shake up the mobile gaming market, Nintendo has partnered with Japanese mobile game company DeNA to establish a new company called “NINTENDO SYSTEMS.” The official website for this new venture has now gone live, and it appears that Nintendo is gearing up to once again take on the mobile gaming industry.

This is not the first time that Nintendo has attempted to break into the mobile gaming market. However, their previous efforts with titles such as “Fire Emblem Heroes” and “Dragalia Lost” have not achieved the commercial success that the company was hoping for.

The aim of NINTENDO SYSTEMS is to bring together the strengths of both Nintendo and DeNA in entertainment and technology, respectively, to create innovative and original entertainment products. The company will focus on developing and operating new systems and services that will bring Nintendo’s entertainment to more customers.

According to registration information, NINTENDO SYSTEMS was established in November of last year, with Nintendo contributing 80% of the registered capital of 5 billion yen and DeNA contributing the remaining 20%. This partnership is a significant move for Nintendo, which has traditionally been known for its console gaming offerings.

With the popularity of mobile gaming continuing to rise, it makes sense for Nintendo to make another attempt to establish a foothold in this market. It remains to be seen what types of products and services NINTENDO SYSTEMS will develop, but the partnership between Nintendo and DeNA could potentially result in some exciting new offerings for mobile gamers.

Vivo X Flip live image reveals an inconvenient cover screen

Vivo is gearing up to release new foldable smartphones. The company is expected to debut Vivo X Fold 2 and Vivo X Flip this month.

The latter is the brand’s first clamshell foldable smartphone. A live image of this device has now emerged on the internet.

The picture reveals the design of the handset. It matches a mockup render from earlier.

Wang Ziwen (aka Ava Wang) is a popular Chinese actress. She did a photoshoot promoting the upcoming Vivo X Flip recently.

An image from this gallery was shared by Digital Chat Station earlier today. The picture showcases the device in purple color.

The phone will feature a circular camera module, like the rest of the Vivo X lineup, including the Vivo X Fold series. It will be located on the top left corner of the handset when unfolded. As a result, the rectangular cover screen will be placed below it.

Hence, in the folded state, the cover display comes on the top of the camera module. This sounds bad as it would be difficult to reach the screen with one hand.

To avoid this inconvenience, the cover display on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip series is placed on the top end, which comes down when folded. The same is the case for Oppo Find N2 Flip.

As far as specs are concerned, previous reports have revealed the Vivo X Flip will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 SoC and will boot Android 13. The chipset will be paired with up to 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 512GB UFS 3.1 storage.

It will flaunt a 6.8-inch main foldable display with an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. While the rectangular cover screen will offer a resolution of 682 pixels.

For photography and videography, the phone will use a Zeiss-powered dual camera system. It will sport a 50MP Sony IMX866 primary sensor and a 12MP Sony IMX663 ultra-wide unit.

Last but not least, it will be backed by a 4,400mAh battery and carry support for 44W fast wired charging.

Huawei is gearing up to launch its new Nova 11 series and the latest leaks suggest that the Huawei Nova 11 Pro will feature a massive upgrade in terms of its camera capabilities. The device is expected to come equipped with a high-quality 108MP camera system, which is a significant improvement over its predecessor.

While the standard version of the phone may come with a 50MP camera arrangement, the Nova 11 Pro is expected to take mobile photography to the next level with advanced image and optical optimizations. Huawei is reportedly using algorithms from Huawei XMAGE to enhance its camera capabilities, which could revolutionize mid-range mobile photography.

The device is also rumored to feature powerful low-light camera technology, thanks to the RYYB color layer that may be added to the camera. This will enable users to capture bright and clear photographs even in low-light conditions.

Apart from the camera, the Huawei Nova 11 Pro is expected to pack some serious power under the hood. The phone is reportedly testing with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, which is a high-frequency processor with an increased clock rate. This means that users can expect immense performance from the device.

One of the most interesting features of the upcoming Nova device is its charging speed. The phone will retain its 100W super-fast charging capabilities, which means that users can expect their phone to be fully charged in a matter of minutes.

While Huawei has not yet announced an official launch date for the Nova 11 series, rumors suggest that the Nova 11 series could be unveiled in mid-April. With its impressive camera capabilities, powerful processor, and lightning-fast charging speeds, the Huawei Nova 11 Pro is expected to be a game-changer in the mid-range smartphone market.
