Bluetooth audio receivers have been available for a while. Connect them to your analog device and you can begin to stream your audio files. Xiaomi announced its own bluetooth audio receiver today for a ¥99 (~$15).
We should have seen this coming seeing as they removed the audio jack on their new flagship, the Mi 6. Although the Mi 6 ships with a USB-C to 3.5mm audio adapter and there is a new Xiaomi Type-C earphones which costs 299 Yuan (~$43), the new bluetooth audio adapter is a cheaper and more convenient alternative for those who have invested in a number of 3.5mm headphones.
Xiaomi says the bluetooth audio receiver support Bluetooth 4.2 and comes with a 97mAh battery. The battery should last between 4 to 5 hours on a single charge and can be recharged via a micro USB port t the bottom.
In case you don’t know, the OUKITEL K6000 Plus has got a massive 6080mAh battery with 12V/2A charger which is supposed to be fast and furious. One the other hand, iPhone 7 Plus has got a 2900mAh battery with 5V/1A charger. That means the battery size of the K6000 Plus and charger are twice those of the iPhone 7 Plus. When the battery capacity and charger output are about twice of another one, how about the charging speed?
The test shows that even though the iPhone 7 Plus battery is only 2900mAh, it took more than 3 hours to achieve a full charge. On the other hand, the Oukitel K6000 Plus only took just 84 minutes to get its 6080mAh battery fully charged. In essence, if we are to use the iPhone 7 Plus’ 5V/1A charger to charge the K6000 Plus battery, it would take more than 6 hours to fully charge the huge battery. Thus that highlights the difference between a quick charge charger and normal charger.
So, are you shopping for a device with enough battery power that can last for days? The OUKITEL K6000 Plus fits that description. The device is presently on flash sale on different reseller stores with various bonus offers for buyers. The K6000 Plus has been selected by Aliexpress again to join the July smartphone week at the price of $161.99. You can access the offer from here.
A report that was published earlier today revealed the pricing and color variants of the alleged Sony Xperia XZ1 and Xperia XZ1 Compact. The model numbers of these phones are speculated as G8341 and G8441. A UAProf (user agent profile) of Sony G8341 had revealed that the smartphone would be featuring a full HD display and Android 8.0. Rumors hint that this phone would be launching as Sony Xperia XZ1 flagship. The user agent profile and AnTuTu listing of Sony G8441 suggests that it may launch as Xperia XZ1 Compact.
Through UAProf it has been revealed that the Sony G8441 would be featuring a HD display and it would be coming with Android 8.0 and Bluetooth 5.0. However, the major revelation of the purported Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact comes through the listing of G8441 on AnTuTu.
It has been revealed that Sony G8441 would be driven by Snapdragon 835 chipset and 4 GB of RAM. It will be coming with a native storage of 32 GB. Its rear camera will be of 8-megapixel and its front camera will be also of 8-megapixel. It will be coming preinstalled with Android 8.0. Since its screen supports an HD resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, it seems it will be sporting a smaller display.
Previous rumors have revealed that the Sony Xperia X1 Compact would be coming with a 4.6-inch display. It is also speculated to house a 2,800mAh battery. As far as the Sony Xperia XZ1 is concerned, it is rumored to come with a 5.2-inch full HD display, Snapdragon 835 chipset, 4 GB RAM, and a 3,000mAh battery.
There is another smartphone called Xperia X1 that is rumored to debut this year. It features 5-inch full HD screen, Snapdragon 660 chipset,4 GB RAM and 2,800mAh battery. Lastly, there is another rumor about Sony Xperia X Ultra that is rumored to house a 6.4-inch screen with 21:9 aspect ratio and Snapdragon 660. Sony will be holding a press conference on Aug. 31 to unveil its new phones.
Update: Sascha Köesch from Engadget Germany has conveyed to us that these images are concept design created by Hasan Kamayak. More details on the concept phone is available here. Thanks Sascha!
A report published around six months ago revealed that HTC would be releasing only 6 to 7 smartphones this year. In this year, it has already released the HTC U Ultra, HTC U Play, HTC X10 and HTC U11 flagship phone. It seems that the Taiwanese company will be releasing 2 to 3 smartphones in the remaining half of this year. On Weibo, couple of leaked photos of a new HTC flagship featuring bezeless display have surfaced.
As of this writing, there is no way to confirm whether these images are real or fake. As it can be seen in the images, the mysterious HTC flagship seems to be featuring a borderless display with no bezels on its right and left sides. The top bezel features have an OCEAN logo and is thick enough to house dual front cameras.
The dialer app and other Google apps can be seen at the upper part of the screen. The smartphone has rounded corners and its rear seems to feature a pair of vertically arranged cameras along with dual-LED flash. There is no information available on the specifications of this mysterious phone. Since this mysterious phone is packed with some impressive features, there is a possibility that it would be equipped with a pressure sensitive Edge Sense technology enabled frame.
There is a possibility that these images could belong to the rumored HTC Ocean Life phone. The probable reason behind it is that the Ocean Life smartphone is speculated to come with 16-megapixel dual cameras at the front and rear. It is speculated to feature a 5.2-inch display that will produce full HD resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels. It is speculated to launch as the first Snapdragon 660 chipset smartphone from HTC.
It will be borrowing some features from the HTC U11 flagship phone such as Edge Sense pressure sensitive frame and USonic audio capabilities. It will be running on Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS and Sense 9.0 UI. Other features of the HTC Ocean Life include Bluetooth v5.0 and 2,600mAh battery.
Elephone P8 Mini made its official debut about a month ago as a mid-range device with low-end specs and that sure did a great job in propelling its sales. A lot of units have been sold by Elephone and more are still being sold so, there is no doubt a number of buyers will be curious about what lies inside the device. The P8 Mini comes with a non-removable back which makes it practically impossible for just anyone to flip the device open except those with the technical know-how. The sealed enclosure ensures a better sound experience.
Elephone has created a video of the Elephone P8 Mini being disassembled, revealing the internal components the device comes with. From the video, we can see that the structure of P8 mini is very simple and orderly which is an assurance of the smartphone quality.
The device features a 16MP Samsung front camera with f/2.0 aperture which can help capture the satisfied pictures in low light environment. The P8 Mini also features a dual camera setup at the rear with the cameras capable of snapping shots with Bokeh effect. Elephone is shown to have included a flexible natural graphite flake conductive thread on the battery and a CPU silica gel plate on the shield cover to radiate the heat. This could, in turn, lead to better performance and longer battery usage. Most importantly, the video shows the Elephone P8 Mini was produced with a lot of attention to details in a bid to improve the user experience. You can watch the video from below. We must warn, though, do not try this at home as disassembling the phone without the right expertise could lead to damage aside from voiding the warranty.

Samsung had introduced its Bixby assistant at the launch of Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ smartphones. These Bixby enabled flagship also comes with a dedicated Bixby launcher key. The recently launched Galaxy Note FE (the refurbished Galaxy Note 7) also features the Bixby AI. At the launch Galaxy S8 duo, Bixby AI supported only Korean language. The English version of Bixby AI was expected to be available by the end of this month. However, fresh news revealed by Korea Herald, a South Korean publication states that the English edition of Bixby AI has been delayed.
Koh Dong-jin, Samsung’s mobile chief had said in April that the English and Chinese editions of Bixby would be arriving in May and in June respectively. However, fresh information that the arrival of both the editions has been delayed. A Samsung representative revealed to the South Korean publication that more time is being consumed in the development of Bixby in other languages. The reason behind the delay of Bixby in other languages is that it lacks vast data which plays a vital role in deep learning technology.
When there is enough data available for deep learning, a digital assistant will be able to learn and evolve on the data that is available. The South Korean did launch the Bixby AI in April with its features such as image recognition and home controls. However, the major feature of using voice command to navigate through the phone is still unavailable in English language. Another issue that has caused the delayed of English version of Bixby is the communication problems such as geographical and language barriers between the Samsung engineers in the U.S. and South Korea have resulted in slow progress of English edition of Bixby.
One should be aware of the fact Samsung has already started the registrations for beta version of Bixby in the U.S. in June. Hence, it was expected to be available by this month. Speculations have it that it will be arriving by the fall this year. Samsung have said that Bixby beta testers have found that the Bixby AI is delivering unsatisfactory results when it comes to responding to questions and requests.
Bixby is struggling at the moment. Will it be able to take on the other virtual assistants from popular brands? According to Ovum, a consultancy firm based in London, Google Assistant has a market share of 23.3 percent, Samsung’s Bixby accounts 14.5 percent market share, Siri from Apple has a market share of 13.1 percent, Alexa from Amazon and Microsoft’s Cortana have respective market share of 3.9 percent and 2.3 percent. The research claims that Bixby can become the second largest voice assistant in the world by 2021.
Samsung Vega is the rumored smart speaker from the South Korean company. It will be powered by Bixby assistant. However, since the arrival of Bixby has been delayed, it would take more time for Samsung Vega to become reality.
Earlier this year, the trend was releasing a new color variant of a phone.However, another one manufacturers have picked up is to release a new storage variant. 360 Mobiles, today announced a 32GB model of the 360 N5S.
The 360 N5S was announced last month as a successor to the 360 N5. Packing 6GB of RAM, 64GB ROM, a Snapdragon 653 processor and a beautiful glass back, all for under $250. Its hard to find a better bargain.
The new model today retains all the features save for the storage which has been cut down to 32GB. There is still microSD expansion though.
The 360 N5S has a 5.5-inch FHD display, dual front facing cameras (13MP + 2MP) and a single 13MP sensor at the back. A 3730mAh battery powers the phone and it has support for 9V/2A fast charging. 360 Mobiles ships the N5S 32GB with 360 OS 2.0 based on Android 7.1 and includes a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner.
If you are on the lookout for a budget phone to probably take on that summer hike, you should give the Blackview R6 Lite a look.
The Blackview R6 Lite is a lower-specced version of the R6 released last year. It has a 5.5-inch 960 x 540 display with a 2.5D glass covering it. There is 1GB of RAM, 16GB ROM and a Mediatek MT6580 processor clocked at 1.3GHz.
While the specs are definitely entry-level, Blackview makes up for it by shipping it with Android Nougat. The phone also comes with dual rear cameras. Both are 8MP sensors and there is a 2MP fixed focus sensor up in front.
Since the time Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun had confirmed that the company will be teaming with Phillippe Starck (French designer responsible for Mi MIX’s design) for Xiaomi MI MIX 2, the rumor mill is heavily speculating on its specs. Last year, Xiaomi had released the Mi MIX smartphone in October. It came with a huge screen of 6.4 inches. It sported super-slim bezels at top, left and right sides of the display. Its successor is expected to get unveiled in October this year. Its arrival seems to be approaching fast as the alleged Mi MIX 2 has appeared on Geekbench benchmarking platform.
On Geekbench, a smartphone named as Xiaomi MIX has appeared earlier this week. The smartphone features Snapdragon 835 chipset. The original Mi MIX came with Snapdragon 821 chipset. Hence, it appears that the upcoming Xiaomi Mi MIX 2 has a paid visit to the benchmarking platform with the SD 835 chipset and 6 GB of RAM.
It can be also seen that the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2 is running on the Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS. The original Mi MIX is still running on Android 6.0 Marshmallow. It is one of the devices that is slated to get the Android Nougat update by the end of this month. In single-core test, the alleged Mi MIX 2 has recorded a score of 1929. It has scored 6,431 points in the multi-core test.
The Chinese firm is speculated to introduce ‘X’ series of smartphones soon and its first device is said to the Xiaomi X1. It is speculated as the first Snapdragon 660 chipset driven phone from the company. The Xiaomi Mi Note 3 that is speculated to be codenamed as Xiaomi Chiron is also rumored to arrive with full-screen design. Rumors have also revealed that Xiaomi will be unveiling the Xiaomi Redmi 5 and Redmi Note 5 budget phones in the coming months.
LG has started sending out invites for a launch of a new device on July 11 in Poland. The device is the LG Q6 which was previously known as the LG G6 Mini.
Although the main official invite doesn’t reveal the name of the device, the hashtag “LGBarbeQ” is a major hint towards the Q6. In addition to that, another variant of the invite straight up points to the device being the LG Q6.
The LG Q6 is expected to feature a smaller 5.4-inch display but with the same 18:9 aspect ratio as the LG G6. The RAM will be 3GB and it will sport a single 13MP rear camera.
Other features such as the processor, built-in storage, front camera, battery capacity and connectivity are unknown. We also can’t say if it will get a global release or be limited to emerging markets.
About a week ago, LG unveiled a 32GB version of the LG G6 as well as a 128GB model called the G6+ that has wireless charging and a number of additional software features.
Ulefone is known for the production of smartphones with beautiful design and great specifications. Their battery capacity is just legendary but it seems the company has carried the affinity for large batteries to other aspects. The company has revealed that they are working on a new smartphone dubbed Ulephone F2 which will come with 8GB of RAM onboard as well as an infinity display. The design is inspired by the Samsung Galaxy S8 and if you don’t look closely, you’d confuse the device for the Galaxy S8.
The Ulefone F2 comes with a 5.7-inch display and the entire display is almost entirely bezel-less save for little bezels at the bottom and top edges. The left and right edges are also having ultra-thin bezels with a curved display. With a larger display and fewer interferences in vision, the phone is expected to make users get immersed into what is displayed. The F2’s display comes with an aspect ratio of 18.5 to 9, which besides further narrowing the width of the phone body for better grip, will match current wide-screen movies better. Apart from the Infinity display, the 8GB of RAM is another main feature of the F2 which makes it the world’s first smartphone with such combination. The Ulefone F2 also comes with a dual camera setup. However, other specs about the Ulefone F2 remains unknown yet, but we will keep you updated.
By the way, big-battery device Ulefone Power2 and dual-camera deca-core flagship Ulefone Gemini Pro are currently available for the special prices of$165.99 USD and $249.99 USD respectively on AliExpress. For more details visit Ulefone’s Facebook page from here.
LEAGOO T5 is LEAGOO’s flagship model for the first half of the year and for their standards, the specs are relatively top-end. The device features 4GB of RAM as well as 64GB of native storage which should be enough to satisfy those who utilises lots of space of their device. Dual cameras are turning out to be the trend for 2017 and LEAGOO isn’t on to be left out. The device features a dual camera setup made up of a 13MP Sony main sensor and a 5MP secondary sensor. Now, we get to meet the LEAGOO flagship live as the company has released photos of the T5.
The photos showcase a mobile device with a beautiful design that sure would give OPPO and Vivo a run for their money. It’s not a bezel-less model but has bezels at the top and bottom. The bottom bezel houses a physical home bottom that doesn’t protrude and which will likely double as a fingerprint sensor just like that of OnePlus 5 or iPhone 7. One of the photos shows what the display looks like while working and we can see it is running stock Android 7.1 Nougat.
The LEAGOO T5 sports a 5.5-inch FHD SHARP display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080p and Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection which not only provide excellent display effect but also give the best protection. The device is powered by a MediaTek Octa-core MT6750T chip and has a 13MP front-facing camera as well. You also get a large 3000mAh LG battery with 5V/2A Quick Charge.

Sony’s IFA 2017 keynote will be held on Aug. 31. It means that the keynote will be held a day before the start of the IFA 2017 tech trade show that will last from Sept. 1 to Sept. 6. The Japanese tech giant is expected to unleash Xperia XZ1 and Xperia XZ1 Compact on Aug. 31. These smartphones have been allegedly spotted on a Polish retailer site (Komp.tech). Their listing on the retailer site has revealed its specifications and features.
Komp.tech had listed two Sony smartphones with model numbers G8341 and G8841 on the retailer site. The listings are no longer available but a screenshot contains the listing of both phones. The Sony G8341 is speculated to launch as Sony Xperia XZ1 flagship. A smartphone with the same model number had appeared in some user agent profile in the previous month. It had revealed that the smartphone would be coming with a full HD display and it will be running on Android 8.0.
The Sony 8341 was listed on the Polish retailer site with a pricing of PLN 3,206.99 (~$859). It was listed in color options such as Black, Moonlite Blue, Venus Pink and Warm Silver. The other smartphone with model number G8441 is speculated to launch as Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact. The Polish retailer site listing had revealed that the smartphone would be available in color choices such as Black, Horizon Blue, Snow Silver and Twilight Pink. It was listed with a pricing of PLN 2,749.99 (~$737).
Around two months, a report had revealed that Sony would be releasing three smartphones at IFA 2017. These rumored phones are Sony Xperia XZ1, Xperia XZ1 Compact, and Xperia X1.
The Xperia XZ1 is rumored to feature a 5.2-inch FHD screen and the Xperia XZ1 Compact is speculated to come with a 4.6-inch HD display. Both the smartphones are said to be fueled by Snapdragon 835 chipset and 4 GB of RAM. The Xperia XZ1 is speculated to be equipped with a 3,000mAh battery whereas the Xperia XZ1 Compact is likely to house a 2,800mAh battery. The Xperia X1 is rumored to feature a FHD display, Snapdragon 660 SoC, 4 GB of RAM and 2,800mAh battery. All the three phones are speculated to come with 19-megapixel Motion Eye camera sensor that is available on the Xperia XZ Premium.
In what could be seen as an indication of its imminent release, Xiaomi‘s vice-president in charge of marketing, Huang has shared a couple of screenshots of the MIUI 9. The VP was trying to get feedback from fans about what they think of the new interface. The leaked screenshots are coming barely two weeks after the MIUI Weibo account officially confirmed that MIUI 9 is in development, quoting the words of CEO Lei Jun that the MIUI 9 would be more fluid and powerful.
The theme in use doesn’t really look spectacular with some comments pointing out that the theme is looking rather plain. Of course, there is the option of changing the team to a more sophisticated look. The Xiaomi VP did not say if this is the icon style because it seems to resemble those of previous versions.
Certainly, it is still a while before we expect Xiaomi to officially release the MIUI 9 because the preview versions have not been seen to have gone through closed and open beta up till now. So, it may still be a while before we’ll see the stable ROM of MIUI 9 rolling out. Xiaomi better hastens up though as Google will soon release Android 8.0 whereas MIUI 9 will be based on Android 7 Nougat.
Samsung’s Galaxy Note 8 has had its front glass panel exposed online, fueling the hype about the device’s release in Fall of 2017. The outstanding feature being the continuation of the S8 design language seen on fan-based renders.
The leaked photo reveals Samsung has increased the screen-to-body ratio to an exceptionally high percentage. The side bezels are narrower and the design is replicated for the forehead and chin.
We can also see that Samsung has reduced the definition of the corners of the screen, making the edges more discretely curved in comparison to the S8 series.
This indicates that Samsung is still working on perfecting the curved corner screen through hardware and also working closely with the software design to accommodate the rounded corners of the screen.
According to the source, the Galaxy Note 8 will be sporting a 6.3-inch Super AMOLED display with a 2K resolution (2560 x 1440) and an aspect ratio of 18.5:9 (the same as the S8 line-up). We expect the device to be powered with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 or Samsung’s Exynos 8895 processor, paired with 6GB RAM.
For camera specifications, the Note 8 will come with a dual-camera setup with a minimum count of 12-megapixel at the rear with optical image stabilization. The phone is also rumored to have a 3300mAh battery.
Another source has suggested the dimension of the device will be 162.4 × 74.5 × 8.4 mm (include the camera hump and the thickness would be 9.5mm).
Samsung DeX Station
Other features that we expect will come with the Galaxy Note 8 is the support for the DeX docking station and also an enhanced S-Pen functionality.
For storage, the Note 8 will come in 64GB, 128GB and possibly a 256GB model (Taking a pinch of salt). MicroSD expansion will also be expected to be included.
In terms of color variations, we will arrive in black, blue and gold.
Rumors continue to suggest that the Note 8 may in fact be released on August 26 in New York. However this has not been confirmed by verified leakers or Samsung itself.
The price has been speculated to be valued at more than $1100, which will make it the most expensive Samsung phone yet.
What are your thoughts about the Galaxy Note 8′ design? Do you think it will restore the soiled reputation of the series? Share your comments down below.
This is not the Nubia M2 released earlier this year in China but the Nubia N2. We understand you may confuse them due to the similarity in pronunciation but they are very different. ZTE’s sub-brand announced the latter in India today and it packs some interesting features.
The Nubia N2 is the successor to the Nubia N1 released in July last year. If you are familiar with that device then you should see some features have been retained. Key one being the massive 5000mAh battery.
The N2 still has a 5.5 display but it is now AMOLED and the resolution has been cut to 1280 x 720. The phone is powered by a MT6750 processor. This is an octa-core chip released last year but still suitable for the phone since its cortex-A53 cores are power efficient.
There is 4GB of RAM paired with 64GB of storage with the option for expansion. The main camera is a 13MP Sony IMX258 sensor with a f/2.2 aperture and dual LED flash. Front facing camera is a 16MP Samsung sensor with an 80° wide-angle lens.
The Nubia N2 ditches the rear fingerprint sensor for a front-mounted one embedded under the newly redesigned home button. There is a dual hybrid SIM slot, VoLTE, an audio jack and a USB Type-C port.
Although you might find the name “Chuwi” as somewhat funny, those who have been following the Chinese market know that this company makes one of the best ‘value for money’ tablets in the market. We have seen some amazing large screen tablets from Chuwi in the past few months, but with the Chuwi SurBook 2-in-1, the company is here to take on the global market by striking a balance of quality build, powerful specs and affordable pricing. So, it’s no surprise that the Surbook crowdfunding campaign on indiegogo saw a backing of more than $600,000, which is an amazing 2000% more than its initial goal of $30,000.
Chuwi Surbook Design
The Chuwi Surbook comes in an all-metal body, with a finish that’s pleasant to the eyes. The sides get a slightly different finish than the back.
All the major ports are located on the right side of the tablet which includes a USB Type-C port placed between two 3.0 Type-A ports, and a 3.5mm headphone jack above them. The power and volume control buttons are located on top of the tablet.
The adjustable kickstand at the back slides up to 125 degrees. The kickstand felt sturdy, as it should, given that the company claims that the stand has a life of over 20,000 flips.
The keyboard is clicky and feels good. The keys are backlit (turn backlight on with FN+DEL), so you should have no issues using the tablet at night. However, I’m a bit worried about the keyboard since the material used around it has a velvet like finish. But I hear that the keyboard is from the same supplier as the Surface series. So, we’ll have to wait and watch.
Chuwi Surbook Display
The 12.3-inch 2K display on the Surbook looks good, which isn’t surprising given that it’s the same display as the Surface Pro 4. The touch is pretty decent and the stylus works fine (I’ll need some time to see how good it is). The stylus supports 1024 levels of pressure response, so it’s ideal for graphic intensive apps like Photoshop and Freshpaint.
The tablet should be great for entertainment as the screen brightness and contrasts are good. Below is an image of the iPhone on top of the Chuwi tablet. You can compare both the screens in the image.
Further, the 3:2 aspect ratio of the tablet makes everything from editing documents to browsing feel great on the screen.
Display Specs Summary
Size: 12.3 inch, 3:2
display resolution: 2736*1824 pixels
Supplier: Samsung
Screen: IGZO panel (8bit)
Nits: 450
Multi-touch: 10 points touch
Chuwi Surbook Specs
The Chuwi Surbook comes with Intel Apollo Lake N3450 quad-core chip clocked at a maximum frequency of 2.2GHz. This along with 6GB of RAM on board ensures fluid performance. There’s 128GB of eMMC storage as well. I couldn’t run any benchmarks to test its CPU, but I’ll get those figures soon. The Windows 10 OS runs smoothly on the tablet, but once again, we’ll have to test it in detail soon. Overall, with the below-mentioned specs on board, you shouldn’t find any hiccups with the tablet’s performance.
Surbook Specs
Chuwi Surbook First Impressions:
At nearly half the cost, the Chuwi Surbook is supposed to take on the big players like Microsoft’s Surface lineup. So far, in the limited time that we got with the tablet, the SurBook sure does seem to do a good job in this regard. But the performance has to be great, in order to be considered as a real competitor to the Surface tablets and we’ll test it out soon to give out our verdict.

Recent leaks have suggested that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 8 phablet would be equipped with horizontally aligned dual rear cameras. A Chinese leakster who is consistently revealing leaked information on the upcoming Galaxy Note 8 phablet has posted couple of images of its front panel and dual rear camera module on this Twitter and Weibo accounts.
The South Korean company had introduced full-screen display called Infinity Display on the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ smartphones. The company is heavily pegged to incorporate the Infinity Display on the Samsung Galaxy Note 8. It will be sporting dual curved edges like the Galaxy S8 duo.
The leakster has released a couple of images of the front panel of the alleged Galaxy Note 8. As it can be seen in the images, the alleged front panel of the Galaxy Note 8 has very slim bezels on the left and right of the screen. The top and bottom are slightly thick compared to side bezels. The top bezel houses couple of openings that are probably meant for some features like selfie camera, earpiece, iris scanner and some other sensors. Rumors have revealed that the Galaxy Note 8 would be equipped with a 6.3-inch display that may carry support for QHD+ resolution of 2,960 x 1,400 pixels and it is pegged to deliver an aspect ratio of 18.5:9.
Samsung’s forthcoming Samsung Galaxy C10 is rumored to arrive as the first Samsung phone with dual rear cameras. With newer rumors claiming that Galaxy C10’s arrival is getting delayed, the Galaxy Note 8 could be the first phone from the company to grace dual rear cameras. In the previous week, a Galaxy Note 8 360-degree render video had appeared. It had revealed the horizontally aligned dual cameras and the positioning of the fingerprint scanner. The Chinese leakster has revealed the following images of the dual camera module placed on the rear of the phablet.
The first image of the Galaxy Note 8’s rear suggests that the phablet is placed in some sort of a protective case. It features a pair of horizontally arranged dual cameras. On the right side of it is a unit that includes the dual-tone dual-LED flash and a heart rate monitor below it. The fingerprint scanner is present on the right of the dual-LED flash.
One of the gripes of the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ is the placement of the rear-mounted fingerprint scanner that cause the users of these phones to accidentally touch the camera lens while accessing the biometric recognition feature. The second image also suggests that the phablet is placed in another kind of protective cover. It also shows the same placement of dual cameras, LED flash and fingerprint sensor.
