The Galaxy Note series can be said to be the most successful stylus-toting phones ever released. This year, Samsung will be releasing the 8th gen-model called the Galaxy Note 9.
There have been details of the Galaxy Note 9 floating around, from specs to design to benchmark results. Notwithstanding, a “new” info about the device has been released online by Evan Blass.
In a tweet by the leaker, it is revealed that the Galaxy Note 9 is codenamed Crown.
This is actually not new info. Earlier this year, the guys at XDA Developers published the codenames for 26 unreleased Samsung devices. The Galaxy S9 and S9+ which were not yet released at that time are two of the flagship devices on the list. The other two are the Galaxy S9 Active and the Galaxy Note 9.
Last week, DJI announced two new Gimbal systems. It also launched the Zenmuse XT2 – the first drone with a thermal imaging camera a few weeks ago. But DJI isn’t done yet. Alleged photos and specifications of the Phantom 5 have surfaced online.
The DJI Phantom 5 is said to come with an interchangeable lens head camera. The camera has a 1-inch CMOS sensor just like the Phantom 4 Pro. It also has new DL-M Lens mount for 15mm, 24mm, 35mm, and 50mm DL-M mount lenses.
The maximum speed for the drone is 55 miles per hour (88.5kph). It also has a maximum flying distance of 7km and 33 minutes of battery life.
The DJI Phantom 5 is said to measure 16 x 8.6 x 12.6 inches and weighs 8.5 lbs (3.85 Kg). Its price is put at about $1,600.
Hisense, the Chinese household electronics manufacturer that also makes phones has revealed that it will release 5G smartphones in 2019.
The info was revealed in an interview by Fang Xueyu, the general manager of Hisense Communications. She said Hisense has been researching and developing 5G technology for about 3 years now.
Back in 2015, Hisense joined the IMT2020 5G team formed by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, theMinistry of Science and Technology, and the National Development and Reform Commission. They were also involved in the development of NB-IoT standard projects for the China Communications Standard Association.
Hisense also joined the 5G Terminal Initiative Plan set up by China Mobile this year to develop the 5G industry.
Ms. Fang Xueyu says the company will begin developing prototype 5G devices this year and then begin testing next year. It will also participate in network testing. The first set of 5G phones should launch later in 2019.
Hisense is reported to have been a key player in the mobile industry for over a decade now. It is said to own one of the most powerful R&D teams in China. However, restructuring in 2014 led to other brands overtaking them.
OnePlus, the China-based smartphone manufacturer is gearing up to launch its new flagship smartphone — OnePlus 6 later this month. Ahead of the phone’s official announcement, almost all information related to the device has been leaked online.
Earlier, there were reports that along with Black and White color variants, the smartphone will also be made available in a Blue color variant. Now, a promotional poster of the Coral Blue colored OP6 has surfaced online, confirming that the company will certainly launch this variant.
Along with the Coral Blue color, the promotional poster of the smartphone also confirms some of the key specifications. The poster reveals that the OnePlus 6 will come with 6GB/8GB RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage.
It will feature a dual camera setup at the back with a 20-megapixel sensor and a 16-megapixel sensor. Further, it says that the phone will have Dash Charge V2, which is claimed to provide full day’s power with just 20 minutes of charging.
Previous reports related to the smartphone has revealed that the OnePlus 6 will feature an edge-to-edge full-screen display along with the notch. However, the company has confirmed that the smartphone will come with an option to hide the notch.
Under the hood, it will come equipped with Qualcomm‘s flagship chipset — Snapdragon 845 SoC, which powers majority of the flagship devices launched this year. As for the pricing, the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage model is expected to be priced at 4,399 Yuan (~$697). It is also expected to arrive in two more variants — 6GB RAM + 64GB storage and 6GB RAM + 128GB storage, with a price tag of 3,299 Yuan (~$523) and 3,799 Yuan (~$570) respectively.
Previously leaked images of the OnePlus 6 hinted that it may also come in a wood-inspired back panel design. Additionally, OnePlus has also disclosed that it is teaming up with Marvel Studios, and is expected to launch an Avengers-themed variant of the OP6. Since the movie’s release date is April 27, we may see the phone’s official launch around that date. In China, the phone is expected to launch on 5th May.
After several leaks and certifications, Motorola Moto G6, G6 Plus, and G6 Play have just shown up in detailed renders published by a 15-year-old leakster on Twitter. Besides confirming the design surfaced in the previous leaks, these renders reveal several color variants of the trio. According to the images, Motorola Moto G6 will be released in at least three color variants: Silver, Rose, Blue, and Black. The G6 Plus will be released in Blue and Gold hues, and the cheaper G6 Play will be available in Gold and Blue as well.
Even though the prices will be different depending on the model, Motorola Moto G6, G6 Plus and G6 Play will have very similar designs. But note that the Play version will be the only one which will not feature a front-mounted fingerprint reader. According to leaks, Moto G6 will come with a 5.7-inch display boasting a Full HD+ resolution and the Gorilla Glass protection.
On the hardware side, the handset will feature an octa-core Snapdragon 450 chipset, 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage. There will also be a dual camera setup with 12 and 5 MP resolution, and a 3000 mAh battery. On the other hand, the Moto G6 Plus will have a 5.93-inch Full HD+ display, a Snapdragon 630 SoC, and 6 GB of RAM, while the Play version will be the most affordable one with a 5.7-inch HD+ display, a Snapdragon 430 SoC and a 4000 mAh battery.
It seems that everyone’s talking about the Huawei P20 Pro but the regular P20 is also a flagship phone that was recently announced. It has a similar design with a notch display, all new dual Leica camera setup, and great specs. As always, if you want to learn all the pros and cons of this device, read out full Huawei P20 review.
The P20 ships just with a cable, a charger, a pair of earphones, a headset jack adapter and SIM ejector pin.
Finally, retail units will have a case but I’m not sure if it will look the same as the one I have, which is really nice.
DESIGN and DISPLAY
Once you pick the P20 up, you are definitely going to feel that it is a smaller phone than the P20 Pro and that’s a good thing – it’s easier to manage the device in one hand.
I have a pink gold color option that has a gradient finish. That means that the phone changes the looks in different lighting. In practice, I love the way the P20 looks and feels. The build quality is nothing short of a true flagship thanks to the metal frame and slightly curved glass backplate.
Even though the display on the P20 is slightly smaller than the one found on the P20 Pro, it sports the same resolution. The phone uses LCD panel instead of OLED but I found the quality of screen to be very good.
Inside the notch, you can find a beefy 24MP selfie shooter. Just a bit more info about the notch: you can hide it if you don’t like it.
There is a loudspeaker on the bottom of the device. It may not sound as great as the dual stereo system on the P20 Pro but it is also pretty good.
One major difference between the Huawei P20 Pro and the P20 – camera setup. The P20 does not have 3 cameras but it ships with a brand new dual Leica system that is capable of taking very good images too. The device ships with a 12MP RGB sensor and 20MP monochrome lens. I will talk about cameras in detail a bit later in this review.
Another difference – the P20 has a lower IP53 water and dust resistance rating. Honestly, I forgot about it when I was reviewing this phone and I kept the phone underwater for quite some time. Good news is that the phone survived and works as new. However, I don’t recommend you submerging your P20 underwater like I did.
Other features are pretty much identical to the P20 Pro: you get a super fast and reliable fingerprint scanner and Face ID that usually works very well and it allows you to unlock the phone very fast. You also get a nice LED notification light but the phone does not have a headset jack, so you would need to listen to music using the supplied adapter. Sound quality is really good, just like on the P20 Pro.
HARDWARE and PERFORMANCE
The Huawei P20 ships with almost the same specs as the P20 Pro but it has just 4GB of RAM instead of six (Kirin 970 chipset and 128GB of non-expandable storage).
In practice, I didn’t really notice that the P20 has less RAM than the P20 Pro. I usually start testing phones with playing 3D games to make the processor and GPU work. The overall gaming experience is great as games usually load fast, there is no stutter or lag even if you play the most demanding titles. The performance is great, identical to the P20 Pro.
USER INTERFACE
Just like the Huawei P20 Pro, the P20 runs on Android 8.1 but it looks a lot different than stock Google’s user interface.
As I said in the P20 Pro review that I suggest you check out, I got used to using Huawei phones that run on the EMUI. Yes, it’s different but it has grown on me and I mostly like it for its speed and flexibility. I’ve used the P20 for more than 2 weeks and I’m yet to see the phone lag or stutter. Huawei assures that the phone will remain fast even after 2 years since the AI-powered Kirin 970 chipset has integrated neural processing unit that helps allocate resources to the specific task every time you use the phone. Well, so far so good.
I also like the extra features and customization options Huawei implemented. I can’t say that I need all of them but I found some features to be very useful. It may feel weird at first but I love running two apps side by side by drawing a line in the middle of the screen using a knuckle. That’s just one of many features Huawei gives you with this phone.
CAMERAS
I found the camera app to be really fast and easy to use. My favorite shooting modes include a pro, portrait, aperture and a night mode. One thing that bothers me is that you need to switch the resolution to 10MP if you want to use optical zoom. It’s really annoying and I wish resolution could switch automatically.
Speaking of that zoom, pictures look really nice and sharp.
Daylight image quality is very good thanks to no small part of an AI-powered camera app that detects the scene and applied the best camera settings automatically. As I said in the full P20 Pro review, some images may look oversaturated and punchier than usual but I don’t think it’s a bad thing since most of the images you take are probably going to end up on social media anyway, and they will look nice out of the box. To be honest, it’s hard to see a difference between the quality of daylight pictures of the P20 and the P20 Pro. Both phones can take wonderful photos.
Portrait and aperture modes are used to take pictures with bokeh effect and I think that the overall image quality is pretty good. The objects are sharp and nicely separated from the background with just minimal artifacts.
Low-light is where the P20 shines. Well, if you use the auto-mode, the pictures could have less noise and grain but a dedicated night mode does all the magic. You can take long exposure shots without using a tripod thanks to AI-powered OIS system. While the quality of pictures is slightly worse than on the P20 Pro, it’s still very good and among the best in the game.
Selfies look really nice even though the beauty mode is pretty aggressive.
4k video is very sharp, detailed, continuous auto-focus is reliable and super fast but… video stabilization does not work in 4K mode and you end up with shaky footage. That’s really frustrating but hopefully, this can be improved with the future software updates since the hardware is there.
If you don’t need 4K, 1080p video looks much better in terms of smoothness. The footage is very stable and it looks nice but obviously, you are losing the sharpness of 4K. It’s worth mentioning that quality of the video is very similar or even identical to the Huawei P20 Pro’s quality.
The P20 is equipped with great mics and earpiece that assure good call quality. I also found signal reception to be very good and other connectivity options like Bluetooth, Wifi and GPS work fine. Finally, there are plenty of sensors to choose from, just like on the Huawei P20 Pro.
BATTERY LIFE
Battery life is definitely one of the strong sides of the P20. Even though it has a smaller power bank than the P20 Pro, it has a less power hungry display to power up. On average, I was able to achieve about 7 hours of screen-on time, which is a very impressive result. Finally, you can charge the device in just about 1,5h using the supplied Huawei’s fast charger.
CONCLUSIONS
The Huawei P20 shapes up to be a solid all-around smartphone that costs less than the P20 Pro and other flagships out there. It’s smaller and lighter than the P20 Pro, yet it sports the same good build and very similar design. I also like the P20 for it’s nice and sharp display, great overall performance, very good cameras and solid battery life.
However, the P20 shares similar issues to the P20 Pro: 4K video lacks image stabilization, there is no headset jack, no microSD card slot, and no wireless charging.
At the end of the day, the P20 is still a very good smartphone, despite a few flaws. In fact, it is a legit flagship phone that costs less than the P20 Pro but it has most its essential features that are packed into a premium metal and glass body. With a notch.
Do you remember the Nokia X? It was Nokia’s first Android smartphone that never felt like an Android phone. I’m sure Nokia doesn’t want you to remember because it was pretty much a failure. HMD Global, on the other hand, wants to bring it back on April 27.
Yes, photos have revealed that HMD Global has a launch scheduled for April 27 in China and the device is called the Nokia X. The photos show digital signposts that have silhouettes of two phones crossed against each other to form an X and the date of the launch- 27th of April.
The few details we can make out of the image is that the phone has a 2.5D curved display and a metal back. The metal body is also curved at the corners.
The upcoming Nokia X is a big surprise as no-one seems to have heard of it before now. We can’t say if it will be a mid-range phone or a flagship device. Nevertheless, we believe HMD Global will want to keep a tight lip until the launch day.
The sixth-generation Moto G series is set to launch on April 19. This year we will be getting three devices – the Moto G6 Play, the Moto G6, and the Moto G6 Plus. The Moto G6 Plus which is the most powerful of the three has been seen on Geekbench and it reveals a few specification details.
The device was benchmarked earlier today. It runs Android 8.0 Oreo, has 4GB of RAM, and is powered by the Snapdragon 660 (sdm660) processor.
If you have been paying attention to news of the Moto G6 Plus, then you may have read that it is powered by a Snapdragon 630 processor. But Geekbench says it is a Snapdragon 660 chipset, so what could be going on?
Don’t be confused. The Moto G6 Plus actually has a Snapdragon 630 processor and not SD 660 as shown in the benchmark results.
Back in 2017, when the HTC U11 Life was about to be released, Geekbench results showed that it was powered by a Snapdragon 660 processor. However, Roland Quandt said it is actually a Snapdragon 630 and that the benchmark site wrongly identifies it as a Snapdragon 660. When the phone did launch, it came with a Snapdragon 630 processor on board.
Remember, QC SD630 is wrongly identified as 660 quite often in Geekbench. So no, the HTC U11 life does not have a 660.
This is the same thing happening now. The Moto G6 Plus will launch with a Snapdragon 630 and it has also been confirmed by retail stores that already listed it ahead of launch.
The Geekbench listing also includes the phone’s benchmark scores. It scored 866 points in the single-core test and 4123 points in the multi-core test. The 6GB RAM variant should have a slightly higher score.
After Razer Phone and Xiaomi Black Shark, a new smartphone dedicated to gamers is going to be announced on April 19. It will be called Nubia Red Devil (or Magic), and today ZTE’s sub-brand has published a render which shows the handset partially. The image has been published by Ni Fei on Weibo. In the image, we can see just a small part of the device which should be the bottom right corner, but it gives important details about its design. Given the presence of a U-shaped antenna band on the border, we can deduce that Nubia Red Devil has a full metal unibody design.
The company logo has been placed on the right side of the back cover and the phone has round corners and a curved metal frame. Near the corner of the device, there is a weird element which seems to be either a hole or a fender, but Ni Fei has not revealed why it is there. This phone is expected to come with an innovative cooling system. According to rumors, while Xiaomi Black Shark has a liquid cooling system, Nubia Red Devil may sport an air cooling system with integrated fans. And what you see in the image might be a hole to make the heat come out of the handset.
On the frame, there is another hole which should be the microphone. Given that it is a gaming phone, Nubia Red Devil will be one of the most powerful smartphones out there. It will be released with an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset running at a max frequency of 2.9 GHz, and the SoC should be paired with up to 8 GB of RAM. Its display is expected to be a 6-inch panel with an 18:9 aspect ratio showing images at a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels. The handset is also expected to boast frontally-mounted stereo speakers.
Xiaomi has an event scheduled for April 25. Most people are of the opinion that it is the launch of the Mi 6X but Xiaomi itself hasn’t officially confirmed that. However, a new poster might be the confirmation we need.
The new teaser poster which was shared on Xiaomi’s official Weibo page is a photo of Canadian-Chinese actor, Wu Yifan (Kris Wu) who is Xiaomi’s brand ambassador. The text on the photo reads “6X” and “Vision Impossible/AI See You”. This officially confirms the existence of the Mi 6X and also hints at its AI features and camera prowess. Although it doesn’t have the date of the event, we are pretty sure the poster is tied to the upcoming launch.
The Xiaomi Mi 6X is expected to launch with a 5.99” FHD+ display. It should come with a Snapdragon 660 processor with Qualcomm’s Artificial Intelligence Engine (AIE), 4GB/6GB RAM, and 32GB/64GB/128GB ROM.
It will have dual rear cameras in the same design as the Redmi Note 5 Pro and in a 12+20MP configuration and a 20MP selfie camera. Powering it is a 2,910mAh battery.
The Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS is a luxury flagship phone launched alongside the Huawei P20 and Huawei P20 Pro. It shares mostly the same specs with the P20 Pro but with a much premium design, a notch-less display, an additional in-display fingerprint scanner, and 512GB of built-in storage.
The phone comes in black and red but most people have only seen the black variant. Even on the official website, there are no official photos of the red variant.
You know how much I love red phones and how I never fail to mention it. So when I came across live photos of the red variant, my first instinct was to share them with you. Below are pictures of the red Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS and they are as beautiful as a red Porsche 911 Carera GTS driving down the road on a hot summer afternoon.

The photos are courtesy of ITHome. They said they got their hands on a review unit but I have also added some photos from the retail page on JD.com. The phone is available for pre-order already.
Huawei’s Honor brand has been in the news lately as a result of the Honor 10 flagship which would join the fray very soon. Huawei has already scheduled an event for May 15 in London and during the event, we expect the Honor 10 to hit Europe. The flagship will also be launching in China on April 19. Expectations surrounding the Honor 10 includes the presence of a Kirin 970 chipset which brings AI to the smartphone, 5.8-inch display, 6GB RAM and 256GB storage. In addition to that, a new detail which leaked recently showing the presence of some advanced features on the Honor 10’s camera.
The Honor 10 is also expected to feature the same 12MP + 20MP dual camera setup featured on the Huawei P20. The new feature is dubbed “semantic image segmentation mode”. The mode is a system to achieve multi-scene detection within a single photo. Already, the Kirin 970 AI chipset brings some advanced AI camera features that allow it to recognise objects like pets, snow, beaches, mountains, etc. However, this new algorithm seems to further extend that functionality, allowing the camera to recognise more than one feature within a still and also determine their position precisely. The feature also allows the application of localized effects and tweaks as needed.
The leak also includes a couple of sample photos allegedly captured by the Honor 10’s shutters and the photos show how the semantic image segmentation mode pans out. One of the pictures is that of the semantic mode turned on and the second is of the mode turned off. The difference is pretty glaring with the new feature adding some attractive tweaks to the picture.
This new feature could be the feature Huawei’s recent “Beauty in AI” teaser of the Honor 10 projects. Unfortunately, the leaked document doesn’t reveal so much about the feature. Apart from the sample photos all that were revealed include a couple of thumbnails which showcasing how the detection actually works in some scenes. The feature actually sounds promising but we’ll have t wait until the launch to confirm this.
A few weeks ago, Vivo launched the V9 smartphone. The device shares a resemblance to the Vivo X21 flagship but with toned-down specs. Now, specs of a less-powerful variant called the Vivo V9 Youth have surfaced online.
The Vivo V9 Youth has a 6.3” FHD display with a 2280 x 1080 resolution. This means it has a notch just like its sibling. The display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3 and has a PPI of 403.
Vivo has swapped the Snapdragon 626 processor for a Snapdragon 450. This is the same processor present in the Xiaomi Redmi 5 and the newly launched Huawei Y6 (2018). Although, those two devices have an HD+ display.
The SD450 is paired with 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. A dedicated memory card expansion slot allows you add up to an additional 256GB of storage. There is also OTG support.
The Vivo V9 Youth has dual rear cameras in a 16MP + 2MP configuration and a 16MP f/2.0 front-facing camera. The cameras support bokeh mode, AI HDR, face beauty mode, 4K video recording, and AR stickers.
There were reports that the iPhone X was supposed to come in a gold variant at launch. However, it didn’t due to alleged production issues. We can now confirm that the information is true as the FCC now has photos of the new variant for public viewing.
The color variant is called Blush Gold and serves as a third option to the already available Space Gray and Silver. True, this may not garner the same level of excitement if it were to be red but at least it is a new color variant.
The Blush Gold iPhone X has glass on both sides. The metal frame is also gold with a mirror-like finish. Even without the display turned on, one can clearly see the notch.
There is no info as to when the new color variant will be formally announced but it should be soon since the 180-day confidentiality period has expired and assuming production issues have been resolved. It should also be available for the same price as the other colors.
Intex Technologies, an India-based smartphone, consumer durables and IT accessories manufacturer, has launched yet another budget smartphone in the Indian market — Intex Uday.

In an interview, Huawei’s executive Mr. Yu Chengdong declared that the company expects to sell more than 20 million units of its new Huawei P20 series in 2018. Currently, Huawei is in the top 3 smartphone brands in the world alongside Samsung and Apple, and its new series of smartphones is already receiving great feedback from the public. According to Yu, the company is investing in R&D 10 times more than its competition in China in order to develop innovative features for its devices.
This will probably help the company a lot in the market. Yu Chengdong has also declared that the company will try to improve the performance of its old handsets by working on software optimization. So, if you own a Huawei device older than Huawei P20, expect to see new updates that will enhance the speed and/or stability of your handset. The Huawei P20 series is actually composed of three devices: P20, P20 Pro, and P20 Lite. The standard P20 is in the middle, but it is still a flagship phone. It offers a 5.8-inch display, an optically-stabilized dual camera with resolutions of 12 and 20 MP, and a 3400 mAh battery.
