HTC’s upcoming 5G-enabled flagship smartphone powered by Snapdragon 855 SoC is in works: Report

Sep 10, 2018

While HTC has been going through rough times as the company recently reported a 53 percent year-on-year drop in revenues. However, that is not stopping the company and the Taiwanese manufacturer is reportedly working on its next flagship smartphone.

HTC’s Senior RF designer Kevin Duo has revealed through his LinkedIn profile that the company is still powering ahead and is working on an upcoming flagship smartphone that’s powered by Qualcomm‘s Snapdragon 855 processor.

The company is currently sampling the Snapdragon 855 SoC, which is expected to bring impressive performance and efficiency improvements over the current Snapdragon 845. While X24 LTE modem defaults on SD855 SoC, the company could opt for the X50 modem, making the smartphone 5G-compatible.

Qualcomm, which is dominating the mobile chipset market, is currently working on its next-generation flagship processor which the company has already confirmed will be manufactured using 7nm design process. According to the reports, Taiwan-based TSMC will begin the mass production of Qualcomm’s 7nm chipset in the fourth quarter of this year.

Recent reports suggest that Qualcomm could change the naming scheme of its processors with the upcoming chipset. The Snapdragon 855 (SDM855) codenamed “Hena” is now being referred to as the SM8150, which will measure 12.4 x 12.4 mm. It’ll be on par with the recently launched Kirin 980 chipset and the upcoming Apple’s A12 chipset.

Some manufacturers have received samples of the upcoming 7nm chipset, for testing and building new phones powered by the upcoming SoC. We recently reported that Xiaomi and Lenovo could be working on a 5G smartphone powered by Qualcomm chipset.

However, do keep in mind that it’s still a long time before we hear something substantial about the mystery HTC smartphone powered by Snapdragon 855. Smartphones powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor are expected to make its way into the market by the middle of next year.

It seems that HTC has no plans of leaving the smartphone market anytime soon but the company could shift its focus towards flagship smartphones only for higher profit margin instead of mid-range or low-end devices. But much of the company’s future will depend on its upcoming flagship smartphone.

Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is definitely one of the best smartphones for productivity. It further gets additional points in this area as it can be turned into a PC thanks to a feature called DeX. Unlike its predecessor, this flagship is the first and only device that can turn into a PC without the aid of a physical dock. It can be done thanks to a simple USB-C to HDMI adapter which is now finally available to purchase on Amazon U.S. Thanks to this adapter, you can connect your phablet to a TV and make the Samsung Experience user interface transform into a desktop-like environment, in order to use your phone as a personal computer.

After connecting Samsung Galaxy Note 9 to a TV or an external monitor, you can then connect a wireless mouse or a keyboard to complete your workstation. The new adapter supports monitors with a resolution up to UHD with a refresh rate of 60 Hz. The standards supported are HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort 1.2.

Samsung Galaxy Note 9 has been launched as one of the most expensive Android handset ever, but we are already seeing price drops. Indeed, it is actually possible to get it for less than $900 right now. It offers a glass + metal design with the IP68 certification and a 6.4-inch display with a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 2960 pixels.

It includes a brand new S Pen with Bluetooth connectivity which can remotely control the phone and perform interesting actions such as shooting photos.

On the rear side, it sports a dual camera with 12 MP resolutions and a variable aperture (f/1.5 and f/2.4).

Motorola Moto G7 with waterdrop notch appears in concept renders

This year we have already seen various phones with new design concepts created to minimize the bezels around the display. Now, the designer Waqar Khan has published a new video and new concept renders, trying to imagine the upcoming Motorola Moto G7 that is surely among the most awaited midrange phones. And according to these renders, the device will adopt the most used method to reduce the bezels created in 2018: the tri-borderless design with waterdrop notch. The renders you can see below are not just a result of imagination, but they are based on important leaks surfaced until now.

So there is a high chance that the upcoming Motorola Moto G7 will really look similar to this. The device shows a front panel with a waterdrop notch containing the front camera only, as well as very narrow bezels with a slightly thicker chin. The rear panel is made of glass as expected, while the frame is made of metal. The back side does not differ so much from the Moto G6 and it sports a dual camera setup together with a dual LED flash. Under the rear cameras, there is a circular fingerprint reader which embeds the company’s logo.

The SIM tray is placed on the upper side, while the volume rocker and the power key are placed on the right of the phone. Even though the overall design does not differ in a consistent way from its predecessor, this Motorola Moto G7 still represents a solid upgrade due to its waterdrop notch. According to the most reliable hypotheses, Motorola Moto G7 will be officially announced in April 2019, and it will hit the shelves with price tags starting from $250 in the U.S. and €219 in Europe. Given that it will be a mid-ranger, we expect it to pack a Snapdragon chipset from the 600 series.

Microsoft confirmed through a teaser that it will hold a new event on October 2. The event will take place in the same location in which Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL will be unveiled a week later: New York City, at 4 PM Eastern Time.

Sadly, the teaser does not give any information about the specs of the devices which will be announced at the event, and we do not even know which devices from the Microsoft Surface line-up will be announced. If we base on previous announcements, we should see one of the following devices:

A new Microsoft Surface Laptop
The sequel of Microsoft Surface Studio
A new Microsoft Surface Pro
Microsoft Surface Book 3

At last, the fourth device would be an even higher-end detachable laptop. Which devices do you expect to see at the event?

Redmi Note 6 and Redmi 6 Plus displays listed on online store

It has been reported that Xiaomi is working on the Redmi Note 6, a successor to the Redmi Note 5. The phone is supposed to be announced later this year and will join the already released Redmi 6A, Redmi 6, and Redmi 6 Pro. Ahead of the release, a live photo of the phone’s display assembly has leaked online.

The image source is a store on the online shopping site, AliExpress. The images uploaded show the screen has a small notch at the top, about the same size as that of the Redmi 6 Pro. The notch has three cut-outs for the sensor, earpiece, and front-facing camera.

The item description says the screen is 6.18” in size and has a resolution of 1080 x 2246. The display is also the LCD type which shouldn’t be a surprise since the Redmi series are supposed to be affordable. However, the price of the screen isn’t that cheap as the seller has slapped a $60 (excluding shipping) price tag on it. However, an on-going promotion will let you pick it up for $56.40.

While doing some digging around on the store, we stumbled upon the display of another unreleased phone – the Redmi 6 Plus. Yes, it appears there is going to be a Redmi 6 Plus and its screen is also listed for sale by the same seller. This listing is the first time we are hearing about the device.

According to the item description, the Redmi 6 Plus’ screen is 5.99-inches with a 1080 x 2160 resolution just like that of the Redmi 5 Plus (Redmi Note 5 in India) but the screen size is where the similarities end. The photo of the display assembly provided by the seller shows it has a notch and it is much bigger than that of the Redmi Note 6. It also has five cut-outs in total.

Two of the cut-outs seem to be for cameras which means it will pack dual front-facing cameras, one is for the speaker, another for the sensors and the last one is most likely for an LED flash. The Redmi 5 Plus has a single front-facing camera and a LED flash, so this is definitely a big upgrade if this listing is genuine. The price for the screen is $52 but it can be purchased for $48.88 for a limited time.
