The already delayed Meizu X8 spotted in Two Beautiful Gradient colors! Goes on sale tomorrow

Meizu X8 is the company’s first attempt at a notched screen smartphone. While we weren’t exactly excited to see a notch on a Meizu phone (they have been avoiding it all this time), the X8 turned out to be a pretty competitive smartphone, featuring the premium mid-range Snapdragon 710 under $250. Overall, the phone offers tremendous value for money at its competitive price tag. Unfortunately, those who were eager to get their hands on the device had to go through multiple delays. But there seems to be a small surprise in store as the phone has been spotted in two beautiful gradient variants.

[envira-gallery id=”218662″]

Back when Meizu announced the X8, it was available in three colors: Blue, Black, and White. These are pretty good colors but in this age where even mid-rangers are coming in beautiful gradient colors, the plain color schemes on the X8 could have looked a bit outdated. The company seems to be readying two gradient color options: Blue-Purple and Gold-Pink. From the teaser video, it looks like they’ll have a high gloss finish, but overall, they look quite beautiful. Interestingly, if you remember, the Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite (Xiaomi’s first gradient model) came in similar gradient color options. So Meizu could have been inspired by the Mi 8 Lite in getting these colors right on its new model.

The company was unable to arrange sufficient stock for the Meizu X8 (display production issues) before the scheduled October 15 date. As a result, it had to release an apology letter to its fans and postponed the release to October 25. It’s highly likely that we’ll hear about these two gradient versions tomorrow.

 

 

The X8 offers compelling specs at its sub-$250 price tag in China. You can read all about the phone from our launch article here.

The new render of the OPPO A7 resembles with the frontal image of the smartphone that had appeared through its TENAA listing. The handset features a waterdrop notch display with a thicker bezel at the bottom. It resembles with the OPPO A7X that was announced in China in the previous month.

There is no information on the launch date of the OPPO A7. Also, the pricing of the smartphone is still under the wraps. The OPPO A7X has arrived in China with a price tag of 2,099 Yuan (~$302). Since the OPPO A7 seems to be low smartphone than the A7X phone, it is likely to cost under 2,000 Yuan (~$288).

MediaTek announces Helio P70: brings improvements over the P60

The Helio P60 is one of the best chipsets from MediaTek and it’s no surprise it appeared in quite a number of smartphones from big brands this year. Today, MediaTek has announced a new chipset – the Helio P70 and it is expected to build on the success of the P60.

The Helio P70 isn’t very different from the P60. The chipset is still built by TSMC using their 12nm FinFET technology, has Cortex-A73 and Cortex A53 cores in the same 4+4 arrangement, and features the same ARM Mali-G72 GPU. What has changed is the clock speeds.

Helio P70 Infographic

The CPU is now clocked at 2.1GHz for the A73 cores and 2.0GHz for the A53 cores. The GPU is also clocked higher at 900MHz. MediaTek says the higher clock speed results in a 13% increase in performance. The AI processing unit (APU) also brings a 10-30% improvement in processing efficiency compared to the Helio P60.

Gaming hasn’t taken a back seat. Compared to the P60, the Helio P70 uses 35% less power and provides 7% DOU in games that require higher processing power. The chipset also supports up to a single 32MP camera or 24+16MP dual cameras. There is a new high-resolution depth engine that provides a 3x boost in depth-mapping performance. It also has a hardware warping engine for electronic image stabilization (EIS) that saves 23mA per second instead of assigning it to the GPU.

Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 first video commercial released; Reveals screen fingerprint scanner [UPDATE]

Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 is all set to go official tomorrow. Since the day Xiaomi announced the Oct. 25 launch date for the smartphone, it has been consistently teasing on its features. Today, the Chinese manufacturer has released the first commercial of the smartphone which reveals something important about the smartphone.

A leaked photo of the Mi MIX 3 that had appeared in the previous week had revealed that it features a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. The authenticity of the image was doubted, but the rumor mill had also claimed that the image has actually shared and quickly removed by none other than Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun.

Coming back to the Mi MIX 3’s first commercial video, it clearly reveals the phone does not feature a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. So, the phone is very likely to feature the pressure-sensitive fingerprint scanner that is available on the Xiaomi Mi 8 Pro smartphone which was announced in September.

The first commercial of the Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 mainly concentrates on revealing the marvelous full screen display and the manual slider mechanism of the phone. The chin of the device is thinner compared to the predecessor models, but it does not appear as slim as it was in its official images. As far as the design of the back panel, it is fitted with a vertical dual camera setup. It could be featuring a ceramic rear.

A recent leak has revealed that the Mate 20 Pro will be arriving in rear fingerprint scanner and in-screen fingerprint reader variants. The latter is expected to arrive Mate 20 Pro UD moniker and feature advanced specs. There is a possibility that Xiaomi may also sell the Mi MIX 3 in rear fingerprint sensor and under-display fingerprint scanner versions. Besides Black, the phone is expected to land in China in Emerald Green and Sapphire Blue color editions.

Update:

Chinese publication ITHome has shared the following zoomed image to claim that the Mi MIX 3 handset shown in the commercial does feature a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. If it is so, Xiaomi has smartly concealed the rear fingerprint reader!
