Update:

A leaked image that had surfaced recently had revealed that the company has already started advertising the upcoming R17 smartphone in China. Also, a newer image that was spotted yesterday suggested that the R17 will be coming with a smaller notch than the one present on the OPPO R15 and OPPO R15 Dream Mirror Edition that were unveiled earlier this year. OPPO Malaysia has now started teasing the arrival of the OPPO F9 smartphone. The teaser of the F9 has revealed that it would be also arriving with a smaller notch.

A drop of rain falls on the leaf will shine they say, but how if it falls on the screen?

Get ready to welcome the OPPO F9 with new waterdrop screen, a breaking new vision experience for you! #OPPOF9 #WaterdropScreen pic.twitter.com/4qn9UAjmet

— OPPO Malaysia (@OPPOMalaysia) July 30, 2018

The OPPO F7 that was unveiled earlier this year had arrived with a notched display. The smartphone featured a 25-megapixel front-facing camera inside the notch. The teaser of the upcoming OPPO F9 shows that it is equipped with a smaller notch than F7. Through the Twitter handle, OPPO Malaysia has claimed that it will be equipped with a waterdrop screen. Probably, through the company may elaborate more on it. There is a possibility that the phone could be equipped with IP67 rated chassis.

The arrival of the F9 series could be close at hand as F9 and F9 Pro smartphones was recently spotted with Bluetooth certification. The Chinese manufacturer may announce the OPPO F9 series in the coming month. At present, there is no information on the specifications of the OPPO F9 and F9 Pro.

Alleged Huawei Mate 20 Pro image leaked with key specs

By

-

Jul 30, 2018

The Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro flagship smartphones are expected to debut in October this year to replace the Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro phones from 2017. A tipster from China has shared some specifications of the Mate 20 Pro smartphone. Moreover, he has also shared of the phone.

A previous report had claimed that the Huawei Mate 20 Pro is expected to arrive a notch-less dual edge curved screen. However, the alleged Mate 20 Pro that has appeared in the leaked image seems to feature a notch-less flat screen. The display is surrounded by super-slim bezels on all sides. Hence, the handset is expected to offer a very high screen-to-body ratio. The selfie snapper is not visible which suggests that it could be featuring a pop-up front camera.

Apart from sharing the image of the alleged Mate 20 Pro, the leakster has also revealed some of its key specifications. He has claimed that the screen of the phone will be embedded with an under-display fingerprint sensor. Like the Huawei P20 Pro, the upcoming Mate 20 Pro may also feature a triple camera module. The tipster has claimed that the phone will be featuring 42-megapixel triple camera setup.

The Kirin 980 SoC will be powering the Mate 20 Pro. Huawei’s GPU Turbo technology will be also present on the phone to boost the performance of its GPU. There is no information available on the exact size of the battery that will be powering the Mate 20 Pro. However, the tipster has revealed that it will carry support for 40W fast charging. The handset is expected to be priced at 5,000 Yuan (~$732).

GizmoChina speculates that the Mate 20 Pro will be arriving with 8 GB of RAM. The probable reason behind it is that Huawei’s sub-brand Honor has recently launched the Honor 10 GT with 8 GB of RAM and also the upcoming Honor Note 10 is also rumored to arrive with same amount of RAM.

The arrival of the Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro is around three months away. Hence, it is recommended to digest the report with a grain of salt since the authenticity of the image could not be confirmed. Also, it advisable to wait for newer reports to confirm on the specs and design of the Mate 20 duo.

Jul 30, 2018

OnePlus 6, the China-based company’s current flagship smartphone, is having issues related to the display, according to some users who have been using the OnePlus 6 smartphone.

Several users of the OnePlus 6 smartphone have taken to Reddit, OnePlus Forums and a few others website to report issues related to the phone’s display. The users are complaining about the screen flickering under bright sunlight when adaptive brightness is enabled.

Reports suggest that when the adaptive brightness is enabled and the phone is exposed to sunlight, even the slight movements by the user kicks off flickering as the phone shifts back and forth to different brightness levels. The said issue is more noticeable with white content and vivid colors.

The issue seems to have started last month after OnePlus started rolling out OxygenOS 5.1.8 update and it seems that the recent OxygenOS 5.1.9 update for the OnePlus 6 has not fixed the issue. A user of the device claimed that clearing the cache fixes the problem, at least for the time being.

However, OnePlus has reached out to the user and has requested a log with recordings of the screen. As the company has started looking into the issue, we expect the company to soon release an update or a patch to fix this flickering issue. In the meantime, users who are facing the issue can disable the adaptive brightness until the fix is released.

The OnePlus 6 smartphone features a 6.28-inch Optic AMOLED notched display and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. It comes in various memory configuration — 6GB RAM with 64GB storage, 8GB RAM with 128GB storage and 8GB RAM with 256GB storage.

Google is expected to announce the new Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL smartphones in October. In the previous, 360-degree renders of the Pixel 3 XL. Some fresh photos of the prototype of the same smartphone have surfaced to show its front and rear design.

An earpiece that doubles up as a frontal speaker is also present inside the notch. Another speaker is present on the bottom bezel of the Pixel 3 XL.

The rear side of the phone continues to feature dual-tone construction like the predecessor model. The upper glass portion with frosted appeal features an LED flash enabled camera and a fingerprint reader. The remaining part of the rear shell is made out of glossy glass, unlike the predecessor model that featured metallic plate.

Samsung is set to unleash the Galaxy Note 9 on August 9 when it scheduled to hold the Galaxy Unpacked event. The Korean company may, in reality, unpack not just the Galaxy Note 9 but a number of other products. A leaked render showing the Galaxy Note 9 in three colours also contained an earbud, smartwatch (likely the Gear S4) and a wireless charging dock. More importantly, the renders which were first featured by Android Headlines shows the front and rear design of the Samsung flagship Note series model.

The pictures above reaffirms rumours that the Galaxy Note 9 will have an appearance that is very similar to the Galaxy Note 8 from last year. Fresh renders of the Note 9 have surfaced today to reveal its front and rear design. The images shos the presence of dual curved edge screen with slim bezels at the top and bottom like the Galaxy Note 8. The rear design almost looks similar to the Note 8 except that the position of the fingerprint reader is different. In this case, the fingerprint scanner sits in an awkward position under the rear camera sensors and not beside it. The rear camera setup is a dual setup with the main sensor looking obviously bigger.

In addition, there is the presence of capacitive buttons for volume controls and power on the left side while the Bixby button is located on the left side of the display. The renders capture the Note 9 in three different colours; Black, Blue and Brown. We still await the arrival of the official photos of the device. So we can’t be very certain that this is indeed the final design of the Galaxy Note 9 or not. In any case, the device will be official unveiled in just a little over a week.
