HD Unboxing Video of Google Pixel 3 XL posted online

Aug 27, 2018

Google won’t announce the Pixel 3 XL until October but when it does, the only thing we won’t already know by then will be the price. Over the past few weeks, the Pixel 3 XL has leaked in various forms from live shots to full unboxing videos and even camera comparisons with the Samsung Galaxy Note9 and Huawei P20 Pro. Now, a new unboxing video has surfaced online and it is a higher quality than the one that leaked weeks ago.

The video was posted by Russsian YouTube channel In Digi. The Pixel 3 XL comes in a white box devoid of any Pixel or Google branding. The version in the box is pure white with black front bezels.

Included in the box is a pair of wired earphones which have the same design as the wireless Pixel Earbuds from last year. There is a USB-C charging/data cable, a 3.5mm to USB-C cable, and a USB-A to USB-C dongle all in white included in the box. There is also a charging adapter in the box.

The Pixel 3 XL has a thick lower bezel which is home to one of the front-stereo stereo facing speakers. There are no bezels on the sides and at the top, but there is a large tub-like notch which houses the second speaker and two front-facing cameras.

Just like the Panda White Google Pixel 2 XL, the Pure White Pixel 3 XL has a colored power button but instead of orange like its predecessor’s, it is mint green. The volume rocker is also on the right directly below the power button.

Google hasn’t really changed the design on the back. The main change is that the whole of the back is now covered in glass, not just the top part where the camera and LED flash are located. This shouldn’t be surprising since the Pixel 3 XL supports wireless charging. However, the camera half has a different shade of white to give the phone that two-tone finish.

As we can see in the rest of the video, the Pixel 3 XL is big, and unless you have really large hands, using this device with one hand for more than a few minutes doesn’t look comfortable. The video also confirms the Google Pixel 3 XL is running Android 9 Pie out of the box and also shows off the camera prowess.

Nokia smartphone maker HMD Global now owns the ‘PureView’ trademark

By

Aug 27, 2018

HMD Global, the company behind the new Nokia smartphones, has now got the “PureView” trademark back from Microsoft. According to the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) listing, the trademark ownership has now been transferred from Microsoft to HMD Global on August 23.

PureView debuted in the year 2012, when Nokia presented to the world the Nokia 808 PureView at Mobile World Congress 2012, a camera monster at that time, and still the phone with the biggest image sensor in the history of the mobile industry. Later, the PureView branding was applied to the Lumia 920, 1020, 1520, and later the Microsoft Lumia 950.

With ‘PureView’ now in the hands of HMD Global, we could see a Nokia smartphone with PureView branding in the near future. The Finnish company could also adopt PureView for the upcoming Nokia 9 flagship smartphone, but that’s just a speculation. There’s no official communication from the company regarding the usage of the PureView trademark.

Along with the PureView trademark, the company has also registered a new trademark for “Dual Sight” which we assume is for the Bothie feature of Nokia smartphones which enables users to take images from the rear as well as the front-facing camera at the same time.

HMD Global also owns a few other brands that Nokia had earlier introduced, including Asha and Xpress-On. The company has not used the Asha brand and the Xpress-On brand has been used only for the interchangeable back cover for Nokia 1 phone. Point being, HMD owning the PureView brand doesn’t necessarily mean that we’ll see it in the near future on a mobile device.

We recently heard some speculation that HMD could use Light’s Penta-lens camera setup on its mobile devices, and maybe the PureView brand will debut with that Penta-lens device. PureView was about the best camera performance and if HMD Global decides to use the PureView brand, the company needs to make sure the phone features the best camera experience.

OnePlus 6T specs may include 3D sensing technology and ultra-fast charging

OPPO has recently introduced the OPPO R17 and OPPO R17 Pro smartphones. These phones are equipped with waterdrop notch screens that are shielded by Corning Gorillas Glass 6. Compared to R17, the R17 Pro is an advanced smartphone that features a triple camera unit with 3D ToF (Time-of-Flight) sensing technology. It is also equipped with Super VOOC fast charging that was only available on the OPPO Find X that was unveiled in June. Since China-based BBK Electronics is the parent firm of OnePlus, OPPO and Vivo, it is very likely that the upcoming OnePlus 6T may borrow features like 3D sensing technology, ultra-fast charging and in-display fingerprint scanner from the R17 Pro.

The R17 Pro’s triple camera unit includes 12-megapixel main camera with f/1.5 – f/2.4 variable aperture + 20-megpixel secondary sensor and 3D ToF sensing technology. This tech is different from the 3D structured light module that is used for 3D facial recognition on the Apple iPhone X and Oppo Find X. On the other side, the 3D ToF camera can be used for gesture recognition and Augmented Reality cases such as virtual fitting of clothes or virtually checking how a furniture will appear at home. Chinese tipsters are now claiming that the upcoming OnePlus 6T could be also equipped with 3D ToF sensing technology.

There is a possibility that the OnePlus 6T will be equipped with a 6.4-inch OLED screen with waterdrop notch display design like the OPPO R17 Pro. It could be protected by Gorilla Glass 6 layer.

Also, the OnePlus 6T could be the first OnePlus smartphone to feature an in-display fingerprint scanner. The Super VOOC charging available on the R17 Pro offers 50W fast charging that can gain 40 percent battery power by charging it for only 10 minutes. The other feature that OP6T may borrow from the R17 Pro is variable camera aperture for the for its main lens in the dual camera setup.

OnePlus 6T has recently received certification from the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) that has confirmed its existence. Since the OPPO R17 Pro is a China-exclusive phone, it is unlikely to arrive in Western markets where OnePlus smartphones are targeted. The OP6T could be the first OnePlus phone to land through a carrier in the U.S. The handset could be available through T-Mobile in the country. As far as pricing is concerned, it is speculated that it could cost around $550.

It adopts a price tag of NTW$7,999 (~$260) for the 4GB + 64GB version and you’ll agree this is a bang for buck offer. The device is expected to be available in Taiwan on August 30 via Xiaomi Home, Xiaomi store, Mi.com and PCHome. While the Star of Taiwan will start selling the model on September 1.

As a reminder, the Xiaomi Mi Max 3 sports a 6.9-inch 18:9 display and is powered by an SD636 chip. The chip is based on 14nm process technology. It uses Kryo 260 architecture, octa-core design, while the CPU frequency is 1.8GHz. The GPU is an Adreno 509 GPU whose performance is not much different from Snapdragon 660. The Max 3 equally comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. There is also a 6GB + 128GB version but that wasn’t made available in Taiwan. The phone gets its juice from a massive 5500mAh battery and despite the big battery the device isn’t too heavy. The 18:9 aspect ratio also ensures one-handed operation is possible and easier than on previous models.

Perhaps stimulated by the rapidly rising profile of Chinese tech giant Xiaomi in the Indian market, Samsung is gradually bringing more innovativeness and less stereotype into its smartphone designs and configuration. The company has just launched a new model for the Indian market. The Samsung Galaxy A8 Star, as it is known, comes with a number of specs features which is different from the usual Exynos SOC, 16:9 aspect ratio screen design, single camera, small battery and RAM sizes which usually characterise the company’s mid-range models. The model was reportedly launched in China earlier on as Galaxy A9 Star.

The Galaxy A8 Star sports a massive 6.3-inch Super AMOLED screen with a full-screen, notch-less design and 2220 x 1080 pixels resolution. The screen has an 80% screen-to-body ratio and utilises the 18:9 aspect ratio. The device utilises a metal frame and has a 2.5D curved glass over the display screen. The Samsung Galaxy A8 Star is equipped with the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 premium midrange chipset. The processor sure brings AI feature to the camera. The SoC is backed by 6GB of RAM while the phone has 64GB of internal storage expandable up to 400GB.

On the camera end, the Galaxy A8 Star packs a dual camera setup at the rear which is arranged in the iPhone X style. That is the two sensors are arranged vertically at the upper left corner. The dual camera setup is comprised of a 16MP + 24MP sensors. Both sensors come with a f/1.7 aperture. For selfies, the A8 Star features a 24MP shooter with f/2.0 aperture. There is also a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor which unlocks the device in record time. The premium smartphone gets its juice from a 3,700mAh battery which ships with a 15W USB Type-C charger. Providing the interface is Android 8.0 Oreo-based Samsung Experience 9.0. The phone also has the Bixby smart assistant built in, NFC and facial recognition.

The Samsung Galaxy A8 Star will go on sale in India on August 27 and will be sold exclusively on Amazon India. It carries a price tag of Rs. 34,990 (around $501) which is a little bit expensive considering the Snapdragon 660 chipset is somehow old and there are cheaper mid-range models utilising the SoC.

According to the World Health Organization, more than half of the world is at great risk of malaria, if the mosquitoes in our homes are environment are not exterminated. Nopixgo at this point in time comes with a wristband that emits weak electromagnetic signals and fields which keep mosquitoes away from the wearer. This is a different approach when compared to most devices which use the ultrasound to ward off mosquitos which have been said not to be that effective.

This wave the wristband produces according to Swiss electronics engineer Kurt Stoll “the manufacturer of the device”, mimic the natural electromagnetic signatures of thunderstorms. How does it work? immediately the mosquitoes detect the wave through there hair-like sensory organ known as the sensilla, the mosquitoes would flee and find shelter, thinking that a storm is coming.

The electromagnetic waves according to the manufacturer is not harmful to man, unlike other devices which use different chemical and at the tail end, ocould causes different illness to man. Just like other wristbands on the market today, the device is made of topnotch materials that make it comfortable to wear and also last the test of time. It is water-resistant and is claimed to run for approximately 3-7 days depending on surrounding temperatures per 1-hour micro-USB charge of its battery. It can be rocked by both children and adult.

LG V40 360° video and CAD-based renders surfaces

The tradition at LG is to release two flagship smartphones each year. The G-series is for the first half of the year while the V-series usually gets announced in the second half of the year. This year, LG changed things a bit by announcing the LG V35 in May, a small refresh, sort of, over last year’s V30. But the main V-series flagship, the LG V40 will launch this half.

Popular leaker @Onleaks has gotten his hands on CAD drawings of the LG V40 and has collaborated with Slashleaks to make 3D renders as well as a 360° video.

The LG V40 takes a cue from Huawei’s P20 Pro and packs triple rear cameras, however, LG is using a different design. The three cameras are lined up horizontally at the center. They share a single housing and are flanked by a LED flash on the left. There is also a fingerprint scanner below the setup and the device’s name etched a few millimeters below.

The LG V40 has a 6.3-inch display and will also sport a notch like the LG G7 but its own notch will house dual cameras bringing the total number of sensors on the device to five. The notch isn’t wide or deep like we have seen from some other manufacturers. If you do not like the notch, there will be a settings menu where it can be hidden.

There is a bit of bezel at the bottom below the screen which is sort of standard on Android devices with a notch. The only difference may be the thickness. From the renders, we can also see that the LG V40 has a 3.5mm audio jack, a USB-C port, and a speaker grille at the bottom.

The dimensions of the phone have also been provided. The LG V40 will measure 158.8 x 75.8 x 7.8mm. It has a camera bump so if you factor that in, it measures 8.2mm at its thickest point.

Despite physical keyboard having totally disappeared in the phones market due to the big touchscreen displays, BlackBerry is still releasing devices with physical QWERTY keyboards. After launching the new KEY2 with upper-midrange specs, the Canadian company acquired by TCL will soon announce its more affordable Lite version: BlackBerry KEY2 LE. Today, BB’s official account on Twitter has posted a teaser video which confirms that the handset will officially debut at IFA 2018, on August 30.

Just like its older sibling, BlackBerry KEY2 LE will be equipped with a physical QWERTY keyboard with a space bar doubling as a fingerprint reader. It is expected to come with an unusual 4.5-inch display (due to the presence of the keyboard) with an “almost” Full HD resolution of 1080 x 1620 pixels.

On the hardware side, there will be an octa-core Snapdragon 636 chipset running at a max clock frequency of 1.8 GHz, supported by 4 GB of RAM and 32 or 64 GB of internal storage depending on the chosen variant. The rear plastic back should house a dual camera configuration with resolutions of 13 and 5 MP, while the front camera should be a 5 MP snapper. At last, the battery will have a capacity of 3000 mAh. Excluding the keyboard, none of BlackBerry KEY2 LE alleged specs are impressive, so we hope at least that it will be sold at a reasonable price.

Chinese phone manufacturer, AGM, is set to launch a new rugged smartphone on Wednesday, August 29. The new phone which will be sold as the AGM X3 will be the most powerful rugged smartphone available as it will come with a Snapdragon 845 processor. Ahead of its release, the phone has appeared on China’s network agency, TENAA, baring all its specs.

The AGM X3 will come with a 5.99-inch screen with a 1080 x 2160 resolution. It is powered by an octa-core processor clocked at 2.649GHz which has been confirmed to be the Snapdragon 845 mobile platform. There will be two configurations – one will have 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage while the other will have 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Irrespective of the version purchased, owners will be able to add more storage via a MicroSD card slot.

On the back of the phone are dual cameras arranged vertically. The TENAA listing says one of the rear cameras is a 20MP sensor but the pixel count of the second sensor isn’t stated. There is also a 24MP sensor in front for selfies and video calls. Below the dual rear cameras is a fingerprint scanner for keeping the phone secure.

The AGM X3 will run Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box and pack a 4,100mAh battery. While it may be a big battery when compared to other flagships released this year, the capacity is actually much smaller than that of the AGM X2 which has a 6000mAh battery.

The X3 will only be available in black according to TENAA. Seeing as it is a rugged smartphone, it is no surprise that the phone weighs 200g. Its dimensions are given as 167.5 x 81.5 x 10.5 mm.

Based on the pictures provided by TENAA, the AGM X3 appears to have a back made of glass with curved sides. There is a rubberized frame with extra thick corners that runs around the phone to absorb shocks when it falls.
