Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset could support LPDDR5 RAM

By

Apr 11, 2019

Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 is the company’s current-generation flagship chipset which powers most of the high-end flagship smartphones launched this year. Recently, the company released two new upper mid-range chipsets — Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 and Snapdragon 730/G.

Now, the company has reportedly started working on its next-generation flagship chipset, which is expected to be named Snapdragon 865. The SD855 had an internal model number SM8150 and was codenamed “Hana” and if the reports are to be believed, then its successor has the model number SM8250.

The codename of the upcoming flagship chipset is said to be “Project Kona”. Kona is a name referring to the Hawaiian Islands. Interestingly, Qualcomm has been hosting a Qualcomm Tech Summit in Hawaii to present its high-end processors in December.

While nothing much is known about the Snapdragon 865 processor, it is said that the chipset will come with support for LPDDR5 RAM. The high-end chip for Windows devices Snapdragon 8cx is still using LPDDR4X. Qualcomm already has samples of the new SM8250 internally and is testing them in conjunction with the LPDDR5 memory, leaving it open who the supplier is.

However, it’s a long time before we see anything substantially related to the upcoming Snapdragon 865 flagship chipset from Qualcomm. So, we expect to know more about this SoC in the coming months.

Meanwhile, TSMC has announced its new 5nm process infrastructure, readying base for the Apple A14 chipset, which will be powering the Apple iPhones launching in 2020. Thus, we are also expecting a Qualcomm chipset manufactured using a 5nm process.

Apr 11, 2019

Lenovo has been teasing the launch of Z6 Pro flagship smartphone from quite some time and recently, the company finally confirmed that the smartphone will be launched in China at an event in Beijing on 23rd April.

One of the highlights of the smartphone is that it will come with a feature called “Hyper Video”, which the company has been teasing since revealing that it plans to launch Lenovo Z6 Pro later this year. However, not much is known about this feature.

Now, ahead of the phone’s official launch, the company has shared camera samples of the smartphone during the night time. There’s a watermark on the images that reads “Night Scene Video Shooting”, which could be the Hyper Video function.

From the looks of it, the images seem pretty awesome for the low-light conditions with a rich amount of colors and details. The images are also pretty sharp and have a good layer of light on top. It appears that the camera has a single pixel of 2.9μm, a larger photosensitive area, and supports 80dB over-motion map.

According to the reports, the Z6 Pro will come with support for 125-degree ultra-wide-angle shooting, 2.39cm macro shooting and a maximum output of 100 million pixels in addition to the night scene function.

A recent teaser of the smartphone hinted that the phone’s camera will be able to capture 100-megapixel shots. There is a possibility that the company could be relying on some sort of software trick for shooting 100-megapixel images through the smartphone.

The camera-related features that are expected to be available on the device include super macro, super anti-shake, ultra-wide-angle lens, super night mode, and super slow-motion video shooting. The company has also confirmed that the smartphone will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 octa-core processor, which powers most of the flagship smartphones launching this year.

To know exactly what the smartphone offers, as well as its pricing and availability details, we’ll have to wait until the company officially launches the Lenovo Z6 Pro at a launch event on 23rd April in China.

Beyond all the razzmatazz that accompany the entry of a new phone model, the smartphone industry has been on a consistent decline due to saturation.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES	Hybrid Dual SIM slot	Hybrid Dual SIM slot	Hybrid Dual SIM slot, waterproof (IP68), reverse wireless charging

Design

With its “shark fin” motorized pop-up camera and its incredibly narrow bezels without even needing a notch, Oppo Reno 10x zoom is the aesthetical innovation transformed into a phone. But the Samsung Galaxy S10 is the one I would go for, not only for the look but also for its build quality. It comes with very narrow bezels and it does not need a notch, and neither a motorized slider, because it comes with an in-display single camera. Further, it is waterproof and dustproof with the IP68 certification, unlike the Oppo Reno 10x zoom. Huawei P30 is nothing surprising with its classic waterdrop display, but it is dust resistant and splashproof.

Display

Currently, no one can beat Samsung when it comes to flagship-class OLED displays. The Samsung Galaxy S10 is equipped with an amazing Dynamic AMOLED panel with a QHD+ resolution and the HDR10+ standard. It comes with very high brightness, perfect color reproduction and a very high level of detail. And it is also a compact display with its 6.1-inch diagonal. Oppo Reno 10x zoom has a big phablet-class display with a 6.6-inch diagonal, but its resolution is lower and it can not provide the same viewing quality of the Samsung Galaxy S10.

Hardware/Software

While Huawei P30 offers a Kirin 980 chipset with a 2.6 GHz clock frequency, the Samsung Galaxy S10 and the Oppo Reno 10x zoom both offer a more powerful Snapdragon 855 that is more suitable for advanced users, modders and gamers. In its most expensive configuration, Samsung Galaxy 10 has 512 GB of internal storage, while Oppo Reno 10x zoom stops at 256 GB, but at a more affordable price. In each case, you get a highly customized user interface based on Android 9 Pie.

Camera

It is very hard to define which of these handsets clicks the best photos as they vary a lot depending on the environment. All of them are equipped with a triple camera setup including an ultrawide lens and a telephoto lens, but they got different sensors. Huawei P30 and Oppo Reno 10x zoom look more interesting as the former sports an RYYB primary sensor which captures a huge amount of light even in dark scenes, while the latter has the new 10x hybrid zoom. But Samsung Galaxy S10 remains an outstanding camera phone with its variable aperture and its stunning photos in low light conditions, as well as a front camera which can record 4K videos. In order to give a definitive verdict on these devices’ cameras, we will have to test the Oppo Reno 10x zoom thoroughly.

Battery

We believe that Oppo Reno 10x zoom will provide a longer battery life. The reason is not only the presence of a bigger 4065 mAh battery but also the fact that its display has a lower resolution than Samsung Galaxy S10 (Full HD vs Quad HD). Samsung Galaxy S10 and Huawei P30 have much smaller batteries, so it is unlikely that they will reach a similar battery life in any of the possible scenarios.

Price

Oppo Reno 10x zoom starts from €550/$620, Huawei P30 costs €680/$766 in its base variant and Samsung Galaxy S10 starts from €770/$867. At the end of the day, Oppo Reno 10x Zoom looks definitely more promising with its bigger battery, innovative design, and awesome cameras. But this does not mean that it will be better than Samsung Galaxy S10 and Huawei P30 for all the users.

Huami Technology, maker of the popular Amazfit range of smartwatches as well as the Antelope sports shoes has released a sports short-sleeves T-shirt. The t-shirt is well suited for sporting activities and comes with an affordable 129 yuan ($19) price tag.

The Amazfit Sports Short Sleeve T-Shirt incorporates a single-guided wet-texture fabric. The inner layer is made of water-repellent yarn while the outer layer consists of super absorbent polyester yarn, The materials allow the sweat to form water droplets through the double-weaving structure inside and outside. The water droplets quickly spread to the outer layer and evaporate in order to keep the body dry.

The t-shirt is stitched with high-quality elastic mesh fabric on both sides, and the left and right sides are more breathable and quick-drying so, it can effectively discharge sweat. In addition, the design uses 3D three-dimensional cut, crafted to accurately fits every inch of the body’s skin. This arrangement maximizes the breathability and fit of the clothes, allowing users to stretch freely while moving without any form of inhibition.

Amazfit also adds reflective fabric to the back to increase the safety factor in dim light and safer night runs. The collar is made of large body fabric, which is delicate and comfortable and which cannot be deformed easily. The four-needle and six-line stretch sewing processes are exquisite and firm; the stretch-knit fabric has delicate stitching and soft touch.

The Amazfit Sports Short Sleeve T-Shirts are available in two colors, glass blue and silver ash. Both variants are already available to buy on Amazfit’s official store on Tmall and Amafit’s official flagship store on Jingdong (JD.com).
