Huawei Nova 4e to debut with 32MP front camera soon

The Huawei P20 series from last year included P20 and P20 Pro flagship phones and P20 Lite mid-range device. The latter was released Nova 3e handset in China. It appears that the company will be using the same strategy this year as it has teased the arrival of Nova 4e for China. Through a Weibo post, the Chinese manufacturer has confirmed that it will be soon debuting the Nova 4e smartphone in China. The same phone is expected to release as P30 Lite in European countries.

The above snapshot taken from a recently shared video teaser reveals that the forthcoming Huawei Nova 4e will be equipped with 32-megapixel stereo beauty front-facing camera. It appears that the phone is equipped with a waterdrop-style notch display. The teaser does not reveal much on its design. However, since the company has confirmed on it’s the next Nova phone, the handset is expected to sport an impressive design like the predecessor Nova series of smartphones.

In the recent past, the TENAA telecom authority from China had approved a Huawei phone with model numbers MAR-AL00 and MAR-TL00. Through the TENAA listing, the images of the phone were leaked. Also, minimum information on the specs of the phone were revealed. Since the MAR-AL00/TL00 phone is equipped with a waterdrop notch screen, it appears that it could be the upcoming Huawei Nova 4e.

So far, it is known that the Nova 4e has a 6.15-inch display that supports full HD+ resolution, a triple camera setup on its rear, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and 3,240mAh battery. It is very likely to be fueled by the Kirin 710 chipset. Since it will be a non-flagship device, it is likely to be priced around 2,000 Yuan.

The existence of the Huawei Nova 4e was recently confirmed through its appearance in the listing of upcoming phones on Tmall. The listing revealed that the phone would be available on the Chinese retailer site by late March. It may go official before the Huawei P30 and P30 Pro smartphones that are scheduled to go official on March 26 in Paris, France.

After releasing the Honor V20 late last year, we haven’t heard much about other models from the brand. That changes today, as we have got some fresh information about the upcoming Honor 20 smartphone. The phone should succeed Honor 10 that was launched back in April 2018.

Serial leakster, iChangezone recently gave us a brief glimpse of the Honor 20 in the form of high-quality HD renders.

The aforesaid rendering spills the beans on the purported Honor 20, which will reportedly sport a triple camera setup at the back. Interestingly, a rear-mounted fingerprint recognition module is missing. So it’s being said that the phone will feature the sixth generation screen fingerprint sensor. Further, the rumored smartphone is said to house 48MP, 20MP, and 8MP cameras that support triple optical zoom. Up front, the Glory 20 could feature a 32MP selfie camera. This phone is highly likely to be ranked on DxO in the near future.

 

 

As for the internals, you can expect to find the flagship Kirin 980 processor inside. Aside from that, the Glory 20 is said to boast an impressive array of features including Gaming+, a stand-alone HiFi chip, headphone jack, AI dual-frequency GPS, GPU Turbo, CPU Turbo, and Link Turbo. There should be a 6.1-inch OLED waterdrop display too. Finally, the phone is expected to draw its juices from a robust 3650mAh battery that supports 22.5W fast charge. The pricing is said to start with 6+128GB at 2999 Yuan ($447), 8+128GB at 3399 Yuan ($507), and 8+256GB at 3799 Yuan ($566).

OnePlus 7 3D renders and 360° video reveals pop-up selfie cam and triple rear cameras

The OnePlus 7 is a hotly anticipated device that is not expected to launch until the second half of the year. That is still pretty far away but you don’t have to wait that long to know what it will look like.

OnePlus 7 3D render

Steve Hemmerstoffer, the popular leaker that goes by the Twitter handle @OnLeaks has released 3D renders and a 360° video of the next OnePlus flagship phone. This time, he has partnered with Indian tech blog, Pricebaba.

A few months ago, a live photo of a device said to be the OnePlus 7 was posted on the web. It showed the phone with an edge-to-edge display without a notch or punch hole. It was reported to have a slider design which means the selfie camera and a couple of other sensors are behind the screen.

[envira-gallery id=”239180″]

These renders do confirm that the OnePlus 7 does have a bezel-less display but not a slider design. Instead, it has a pop-up selfie camera just like the Vivo NEX and Vivo V15 Pro. The selfie camera slides out of the left side of the frame. The OnePlus 7 isn’t totally bezel-less as it has a bit of bezel at the bottom of its 6.5-inch display.

On the back, the OnePlus 7 sports a triple camera setup which is arranged vertically. In between the second and third sensor is the laser focus module. The camera housing is raised and an LED sensor sits outside the setup. There is no fingerprint scanner on the back which means the in-display fingerprint scanner on the OnePlus 6T is making a comeback. The back of the phone is covered in glass. Unfortunately, it will not have support for wireless charging.

The right side of the phone is home to the alert slider and power button while the volume rocker is on the left. There is a USB type-C port at the bottom which is flanked by a speaker grille on one side.

However, Xiaomi launched their Redmi Note 7 and Redmi Note 7 Pro devices in India with Snapdragon 600 processors at reasonable prices. Xiaomi Note 7 Pro carries various advanced features over the Redmi Note 7 such as the new Dual rear camera module including a 48-megapixel sensor.

The key specifications such as dew-drop display and dual camera module on the rear side also got confirmed with the listing.

Design

As we said above, Vivo iQOO is the handset that looks more like a normal flagship phone instead of a gaming device. And it is much more elegant, it has a wonderful glass back as well as a higher screen-to-body ratio. So if you do not want to distinguish yourself as an advanced gamer and you just want a normal phone with gaming capabilities, go for the iOOO. If you are looking for a gaming-centric design, then Nubia Red Magic Mars and Black Shark Helo are better for you. The former has an RGB LED strip and physical keys on the back that are very useful while playing games, while the latter has LED strips at the sides and it supports a detachable controller.

 

Display

Xiaomi Black Shark Helo’s display should deliver a better viewing quality. It comes with 100 percent DCI-P3 coverage, so its color reproduction should be better. Further, it has no notch unlike the Vivo iQOO, and it comes with an 18:9 aspect ratio: I define these things better for people who often play games. Indeed, a very tall screen and the notch may represent a disadvantage in some games. Nubia Red Magic Mars has a good display too for games, that is also scratch resistant thanks to the Dinorex technology by NEG. However, it is just an average panel when it comes to quality. Vivo iQOO is the only with a UD fingerprint reader, but it is not that useful for a gamer.

 

Specs & Software

Here Vivo iQOO wins because it is equipped with a stronger chipset: the new Snapdragon 855 by Qualcomm that is up to 45 percent faster than its predecessor Snapdragon 845 found on the Xiaomi Black Shark Helo and Nubia Red Magic Mars. Last but not least, Vivo iQOO has up to 12 GB of RAM while its rivals stop at 10 GB. Vivo iQOO is also equipped with interesting gaming-centric technologies such as Net Turbo seamlessly switching between Wi-Fi and 4G when needed in order to offer better gaming performance, Cooling Turbo to avoid heating issues and Center turbo to boost app startup and frame rate.

 

Camera

Given that it comes with a triple camera setup including an ultrawide sensor and a depth sensor, Vivo iQOO should be able to shoot more interesting photos. But Xiaomi Black Shark Helo is all but a joke as a camera phone, thanks to its bright dual camera including a telephoto lens for 2x optical zoom. Nubia Red Magic Mars is not an excellent camera phone and it comes with a midrange-class setup consisting of a single 16 MP rear camera and a classic 8 MP selfie snapper. Do not expect so much from it.

 

Battery

Thanks to its big 4000 mAh battery and its efficient Snapdragon 855 chipset, we believe that Vivo iQOO should deliver a longer battery life. But its opponent should not be far away as their battery capacity is high as well. Vivo iQOO is also better when it comes to fast charging: thanks to its fast charging technology it can go up to 50 percent in just 15 minutes and it can fully charge in just 45 minutes. Note that the base version with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage has a slower charging technology.

 

Price

The new Vivo iQOO debuted with a price tag of just €400 (translating into $455 at the actual change) and it wins this comparison for its better hardware, software technologies, and overall specs. Xiaomi Black Shark and Nubia Red Magic Mars have listing prices of about €450 and €420, respectively, that is equivalent to about $511 and $477.
