Samsung has a lineup of its own mobile processors under the Exynos brand. The top-end offering in the lineup is usually powering the flagship smartphones from the brand, along with the Qualcomm Snapdragon chips.

But this time, Samsung decided to skip the Exynos version of the flagship smartphones, and thus, the Galaxy S23 series comes powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC in all regions.

While it was speculated that the company may be done with the flagship chipset of its own, given the disappointing reasons for the Exynos 2200, it appears that isn’t the case.

As per the latest information, the South Korean technology giant is working on the Samsung Exynos 2500 SoC, which will feature a self-made GPU based on AMD’s technology. However, the specification of the chip remains unknown at this time.

Previously, Samsung was rumored to be working on a custom graphics processor, and this is likely to be the case as the company would take advantage of the license agreement with AMD, which was recently renewed. It remains to be seen if Samsung is looking to ditch Qualcomm in the longer run and rely only on its own chips.

Although the development sounds exciting, it will take some time, at least a couple of years, before the Samsung Exynos 2500 SoC becomes official. There’s a possibility that the chipset may be manufactured using a second-generation 3nm process if everything goes as per the plans and Samsung starts 3nm production next year.

Huawei admits how difficult it was to manufacture the Huawei Mate 50 series

Huawei Consumer Business Group CEO Yu Chengdong recently sat down with Chinese media to discuss the challenges the company faced in producing the Huawei Mate 50 series. Yu revealed that the manufacturing process was difficult due to major faults in the supply chain and limited chip supplies. Despite these hurdles, the team managed to bring the flagship into production.

Yu also spoke about the internal obstacles the company faced, with someone within the company telling him that it was impossible for the Mate 50 to succeed due to the high cost and restrictions on gathering the required technologies. However, Yu was determined to make the product a success.

Since last year’s U.S. restrictions, the company has been limited to launching only 4G phones and the Mate 50 series is no exception. However, Yu stated that Huawei has improved 4G performance and WiFi 6 technology helps fill the gap left by the lack of 5G.

Overall, Yu expressed confidence in the Mate 50 series, stating that if it did not do well, he would be “very sad,” but he is pleased with its performance so far. Despite not having 5G capabilities, the Mate 50 series is packed with high-end features including XMAGE imaging technologies and high-resolution pictures.

Ever since the imposition of sanctions on the Chinese technology giant Huawei by the United States, the company is rapidly losing out in terms of market share globally. Not just phones, but the firm is also barred from making its own chipsets.

However, the company is still hopeful about its future in the smartphone market. Derek Yu, President of Huawei’s Consumer Business in Central and Eastern Europe, Northern Europe, and Canada made remarks about the company’s future.

He said that Huawei will keep investing in the development of flagship smartphones, especially those with foldable displays. The company will also keep the focus on its premium Mate-series and P-series flagship phones.

Further, he added that the Shanghai R&D Center is also working on a solution for 5G chips which means that Huawei’s flagship smartphone could again come with support for 5G connectivity one day.

Currently, Huawei is barred from procuring chips with support for 5G connectivity because of the sanctions and that is the reason most of the phones getting launched by Huawei come with 4G-only support.

Derek Yu has also confirmed that the Huawei Mate 50 series smartphones are all set to be officially launched in 2022. While the company’s phone comes pre-installed with the Android operating system in markets outside of China, Huawei is scheduled to open its HarmonyOS for the European market sometime next year.

It’s been a couple of years since chipset manufacturers started making flagship chips using a 5nm process. With rapid development in technology, the change happens pretty soon and the same is true for the manufacturing process as well.

Chipset makers like TSMC and Samsung have already confirmed that they are working on the next-generation 3nm and 2nm processes for manufacturing chipsets. TSMC, which is the world’s largest contract manufacturer for chips, is set to being the production of chips based on a 3nm process next year.

Now, a report from DigiTimes (via ITHome) claims that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company isn’t just planning for 3nm chips but will also have an enhanced version of the same in the form of N3E, which will go into production in 2023.

Currently, TSMC uses the N5P process, which is an enhanced version of the N5 or 5nm process and the technology is being used for manufacturing the Apple A15 Bionic chipset. It is claimed to be more energy-efficient compared to the standard N5 process.

Previous reports have claimed that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company will start mass production of 3nm chipsets in the second half of 2022, with a capacity to process 30,000 wafers. It will then expand the monthly production capacity to 55,000 units in 2022 and within a year after that, it plans to expand to 105,000 units a month.

Compared to the current 5nm process, the new 3nm process reduces power consumption by 30 percent and increases performance by 15 percent. Even with orders for 3nm chips, the company will continue to focus on 5nm chips as well.

A couple of months ago, it was reported that the majority of TSMC’s 3nm production capacity has been secured by Apple, followed by AMD and NVIDIA. This news contradicts previous reports, which stated that even Intel has secured the majority of TSMC’s 3nm production capacity.

Also, Armor 7’s camera performance is far superior to that on the S61 as it comes with a triple rear camera with 48MP main sensor that captures detailed photos with lower noise and bright colors, close to the original subject. On the other hand, the result on CAT S61 seems a bit dim. The overall user experience is superior on the Armor 7.

Lastly, there’s another field where the Armor 7 excels in: price. It currently is on sale on Aliexpress selling at just $369.99 whereas its opponent’s original price is $999, almost triple! It’s clear that famous brands aren’t always the best choice. If you are interested, you can grab the Armor 7 on Aliepxress.

Rugged phones are a bit misunderstood as in early days, besides a durable chassis, there was nothing worth noting. That’s all in the past now as rugged smartphone manufacturers equip their devices with everything a modern smartphone should have. Including a decent camera. Two weeks ago, Ulefone uploaded a video demonstrating the camera performance of the Ulefone Armor 6S. Let’s check it out.

Hardware-wise, Armor 6S comes with a dual rear camera featuring a 16MP main camera and an 8MP secondary sensor. Also, it supports different modes including Mono Mode, Aperture Mode, and Pro Mode, to give the user more choices when shooting a photo. The Pro Mode enables you to freely adjust the white balance, ISO, and exposure, and if you are familiar with these terms you should get an excellent result. On the front, the phone hosts an 8MP selfie shooter with the ability to take beautiful and natural selfies.

What’s more, apart from the camera specs, Armor 6S is pretty powerful overall as it packs the Helio P70 SoC backed by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The display is a 6.2″ FHD+ IPS notch display for an immersive visual experience while there’s also wireless charging, fingerprint and face unlock, global network support, NFC with Google Pay, Android 9.0 Pie OS and more.

As we speak, the Ulefone Armor 6S is on promotion over at Aliexpress for just $269.49. A big discount compared to its official price so you can visit the product page here and grab yours. For more Ulefone devices, you can check out their official website.

The smartphone market is dominated by big companies like Apple, Samsung, and Huawei that offer some great flagships with remarkable features but also a very high price tag. However, there are other manufacturers that offer great value for money phones like the Cubot X20 Pro, one of the most VFM smartphones out there that costs around $150 but features similar performance as much more expensive devices. Let’s see its pros and cons below.

Pros

• Triple camera that produces great photos
• Vivid FHD display with beautiful colors
• Stock Android 9.0
• Great value for money

Cons

• No Headphone Jack
• No fingerprint reader
• No Wireless Charging

Cubot X20 Pro Build Quality

The display is one of the reasons that make the X20 Pro the best VFM phone. It’s an IPS 6.3″ FHD+ display with rich colors and 409ppi. Also, besides the high resolution, it has a clean design with just a tiny notch, unlike the huge iPhone notch. This allows for a higher screen/body ratio as well.

Cameras

The camera design is a clear copy of the iPhone 11 Pro and Google Pixel 4 but that’s ok as most manufacturers copy each other in this department. The important thing is whether the performance of the camera is adequate or not. And the Cubot X20 Pro delivers more than its price suggests with a 12MP sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide sensor. The third sensor is a 20MP one that is used for portrait shots with bokeh effect.

The sensors work great both in bright and low-light conditions while you can adjust the depth of field both before and after the shot. What’s more, there’s a 13MP front shooter that is good for selfies and video calls. And speaking of video, the X20 Pro can shoot 4K video with OIS meaning that no more shaky videos.

Performance and UX

Coming preloaded with Android 9 Pie, the phone’s performance is fluid and smooth. There is no lag or any custom skins applied, just stock Android. This way, Cubot is able to get the maximum performance out of the hardware and offer quick software updates. The phone comes with Helio P60 SoC which is a worthy counterpart to the Snapdragon 660, a popular choice among mid-range phones. As said before, it supports 4K video recording and also offers Face Unlock.

To boost the SoC, the X20 Pro comes with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. This ensures that you never run out of space to store your apps and games or RAM to run them. No matter what game you want to play and what video you want to run, the processor and RAM will do their job well. The storage is expandable up to 256GB more while in terms of performance, the device ranks among the Xiaomi Mi Note 3 and the Asus Zenfone Max Pro.

Battery Life

Usually, the weak link in smartphones is battery life. Technology has evolved so much in every other aspect in the mobile industry apart from batteries. The most expensive phones out there like Google’s Pixel series feature mediocre battery life at best. Also, the obsession for more and more thin devices leaves little space for a big battery. However, the Cubot X20 Pro has a 4000mAh capacity battery that will definitely take you through the day even with heavy use.

Of course, it’s not just a matter of capacity. Software optimization is also very important and the Stock Android 9 Pie in X20 Pro does a good job in power management. There is no battery-hogging bloatware. Add to that the Fast Charging implemented by Cubot and you can charge for half an hour to get a full day of light use. Sounds like a good and small investment, doesn’t it?

The latest rugged flagship of Ulefone -Armor 7- is already on the market for some time now. The Armor 7 features a 48MP triple rear camera with AI support, night shot, and telephoto lens as well as a 16MP selfie shooter. Today, the Chinese manufacturer released a video to demonstrate the phone’s camera capabilities. Let’s watch it.

In the video we can see the main camera having a pretty decent dynamic range and colors are very close to the original. The 48MP sensor offers detailed photos with low noise and even if you zoom in, photos come out just fine. Also, the AI scene recognition can intelligently detect many kinds of scenes and automatically adjust the brightness, contrast, and saturation, making shooting effortless.

The 16MP Night Shot camera isn’t bad either. Of course, it can’t reach expensive flagship cameras but it gets the job done thanks to the pixel binning of the 48MP sensor that combines 4 pixels into 1 to allow more light in. What’s more, the selfie shooter is average with nice colors and details but with the beauty mode on, some details are missing due to the smoothing effect it applies on the skin. So, if you like natural and real photos, we suggest you take selfies using the normal mode.

As for the video recording, Armor 7 supports up to 4K and also features slow-motion, time-lapse, pro mode, underwater camera mode, GIF etc. Pretty neat for an affordable and rugged flagship that sports the Helio P90 AI SoC bundled with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Also, the big 5500mAh battery, NFC with Google Pay, global network bands support, quad positioning system, and Android 9 Pie.

Right now, Armor 7 is on sale over at Aliexpress and Banggood with a discounted price of $369.99. If you are interested, go ahead and grab one. For more details, visit the Ulefone official website.

Ulefone is very proud of its latest rugged flagship, Armor 7, and their confidence is that it’s the best rugged phone out there. So, in order to demonstrate its rugged features, the company is making a series of videos putting the device through various tests. The previous test was about its drop resistance and this time the Armor 7 goes through tests that prove its waterproofing.

As you can see, the phone survived all the tests it was put through, including water washing, rain splashing, dipping in the sea, scouring by water on the beach, etc. In addition, you can see the diver shooting video underwater.

The Ulefone Armor 7 is equipped with the Helio P90 AI SoC paired with 8GB of RAM plus 128GB of internal storage. The phone is equipped with a 48MP/16MP/8MP triple rear camera and a 16MP selfie shooter. Also, it comes with a 6.3″ FHD+ waterdrop screen while the rest of the main specs include a big 5500mAh big battery with Qi 10W wireless charging, fingerprint and face unlock, global network bands, NFC with Google Pay, and Android 9 Pie.

Blackview is known for making phones for adventurers as they make some of the best rugged phones out there. Adventures, by definition, should include elements of fun, thrills, and sometimes even danger. But if you carry reliable gear, you have nothing to fear. Blackview recently launched the new rugged BV9800 Pro, the first thermal camera phone designed for outdoor adventures.

The BV9800 Pro helps serious adventurers increase situational awareness via the integrated FLIR® Lepton® that “sees” heat which is invisible to the human eye. Thermal vision is a key capability in areas of national defense, public safety, and firefighting and provides diagnostic capabilities for utilities, construction, and inspection. The ability to create an image based on differences in heat allows users to see in total darkness and know the temperature of all the objects in the scene. In addition, the BV9800 Pro comes with a Sony® 48MP camera as well as the standard IP68/IP69K and MIL-STD-810G certifications that all Blackview rugged devices come with. Also, there is GPS/GLONASS/BEIDOU navigation systems, air-pressure sensor, and a 6580mAh battery that offers a battery life of up to 840 hours in standby or 27 hours of talk time.

A thermal camera may seem like a gimmick but it can prove to be useful in a number of situations. For example, imagine that you are out camping in the forest and start a campfire to warm or cook. To make sure that the fire is out before you leave, you can use the thermal camera to check because it is very common for fires to seem extinguished but they rise again. It is similar to what firefighters do to check for any “hotspots”. The BV9800 Pro can confirm that a campfire is completely out before you go to sleep or break camp. And while sitting around the campfire, you can see if that noise in the darkness is an animal or your friend trying to scare you.

Many animals are naturally camouflaged and very hard to see with the naked eye, even when they in plain sight. Wildlife photographers can often use the thermal-camera capability of the BV9800 Pro to spot an animal’s heat (unless hidden by foliage or behind terrain). With the exact position of the animal known, you can change the lens to the Sony® 48MP camera to capture photos of animals in their natural environments.

Specialized thermal cameras are used in public safety for search and rescue and suspect pursuit. They are especially valuable after dark when a traditional camera is useless. There are countless news stories of lost hikers, children, or pets being found using a thermal camera at night. Unfortunately, accidents can happen in the great outdoors, and a BV900 Pro can be a useful tool in low-light conditions or total darkness. Capable of seeing a person-sized object at up to 30 meters away in the dark, the new BV9800 Pro provides aid for detecting people or other warmer objects in total darkness. To learn more about it and how its new thermal imaging features can help you in various situations, check the product page here.

Grabbing a flagship at a good price tag isn’t the most easy thing to do. Let alone a rugged flagship that carries more manufacturing processes than an ordinary device. Blackview BV9600 Pro is the latest flagship from the Chinese manufacturer and today is the last day that you can get it for just $289.99. And it’s worth it.

Water, dust, and shock resistance are only a few of the features that BV9600 Pro has to offer. The IP68/IP69K certifications mean that you can submerge the device up to 1.5m deep in the water for up to 30 minutes. Also, the MIL-STD-810G certification means it can withstand drops from up to 1.5m height and cope well with sandy environments. Fishermen and sailors among other occupations will find these features lifesaving.

And when talking about flagships, the BV9600 Pro stands up to this characterization as it sports with powerful specs like Helio P70 AI SoC with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, 6.21″ AMOLED display, Android 9 Pie, and a big, 5580mAh battery that can last at least 2 days on a single charge.

So, the special offer from Blackview is still ongoing and will end today so you still have some time to grab the device at $289.99. You’d better hurry.

As summer is coming to an end and back-to-school season is coming, it is a perfect time to grab a new smartphone for the upcoming school year.

For that reason, the Chinese manufacturer just launched its back-to-school promo that gives you the chance to win the new flagship for free as well as other deals with up to $110 off.

1 of 4

The Ulefone T2 features a large, 6.7″ FHD+ display from Sharp and comes with a notch and 19:9 aspect ratio. Ulefone upgraded the CPU to Helio P70 instead of the P60 and that means a big performance jump, especially when combined with the 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. A dual-camera setup with 16MP/8MP sensors on the back takes care of your photography needs while the front camera is an 8MP that also supports Face Unlock. The  4200mAh battery with 9V2A fast charge and OTG reverse charge will never let you down in the middle of the day as in conjunction with Android 9 Pie’s power management, many hours of use on a single charge are there for you. Lastly, there is a fingerprint sensor, dual 4G/dual VoLTE support, and NFC with Google Pay.

The presale will start on August 20th and until then, anyone who guesses the final presale price will have a chance to get a free T2. In the meantime, you can also join the giveaway event. The giveaway has started today on Ulefone’s official website but there will be two more competitions on Ulefone’s official VK and Facebook pages starting on August 20th.

Although previous information was talking about the launch of Ulefone T2 hitting the market in February of 2019, it seems that the company’s planning changed and it didn’t. But now it is final and the new flagship of the Chinese manufacturer will be launched next week. Also, this delay has its advantages as it is coming with Helio P70 instead of P60.

As a flagship-level phone, the screen of Ulefone T2 is pretty much bezeless. It measures at 6.7″ with FHD+ resolution, an aspect ratio of 19:9, and is provided by Sharp. The specs of the display cover up to 98% NTSC ultra-wide color gamut to offer vivid, colorful, and crisp images.

On the inside lies the most advanced processor from MediaTek, Helio P70 AI SoC, and is backed by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. As you can guess, it is a multitasking beast. What’s more, it packs a massive 4200mAh battery, larger than most flagship devices out there. This makes sure that you won’t run out of battery in the middle of the day. And even if you do, the 18W fast charging will get you up and running fast. Also, it supports wireless charging as well thanks to the 3D Glass back cover.

In terms of camera performance, the Ulefone T2 comes with a dual rear setup with 16MP/8MP sensors that, with the help of the new high-resolution depth engine of Helio P70, gives a 3X boost in depth-mapping performance, and captures richer details. The selfie shooter hosts an 8MP sensor that can also be used for Face Unlock.

The rest of the specs are what a flagship deserves to have, so there is NFC with GPay support for easy contactless payments, a smart Hi-Fi audio chip that offers high-quality music reproduction, and support for 18 4G/LTE frequency bands that cover more than 90% of the world’s network carriers. Oh, there’s also dual 4G/dual VoLTE support too.

The Ulefone T2 will start its presale next week but the price isn’t known for the time being. We assume it will be revealed soon. To see all the specs and features of the new flagship, visit the official product page here.

The triple camera setup consists of a 12MP main sensor, a 20MP depth-of-field sub-sensor, and an 8MP 125° ultra-wide-angle sensor.

In terms of hardware configuration, the Cubot X20 Pro is equipped with the Helio P60 octa-core AI SoC backed by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage while it comes with Android 9 Pie pre-installed. Check out the main specs below.

No further details were revealed by the company and the only thing we can tell for sure is that it will come with a gradient glass back as well as a rear-placed fingerprint sensor. The front of the device looks impressive with thin bezels and small bottom chin. We assume that more information will be available very soon.

The latest rugged flagship from Blackview, the BV9700 Pro, is a multifunctional rugged smartphone with features distinguishing it from a standard phone like the iPhone, Huawei phones, and Samsung phones. That’s because it offers three new features that solidify it as a must-have tool for anyone working outside, people paranoid about air quality, heart rate detection, and night shooting. Some of these features are already found in smart wearables that help people manage medical conditions like diabetes and heart disease. And it costs as much as a good smartwatch costs without a smartphone!

As an air monitoring device, it can measure three categories of pollutants and particulate matter, specifically Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and carbon dioxide, include a large range of chemicals and substances. The sensor can work without you opening an app as it runs in the background and can alert you when there’s something wrong. This is more serious than it sounds as something can happen to you when painting something and there’s bad ventilation. Or if you’re painting a room in your house and you see the air quality level has spiked to unhealthy, it might be time to open some windows.

As for the built-in heart rate monitor, it obtains the user’s heart rate data by detecting the number of pulses per minute of the blood vessels on the user’s finger regardless if you are walking, training, playing basketball, or at a yoga class. Detecting and analyzing your heart rate blood oxygen before, during and after exercise can understand the exercise intensity and effort, and facilitate the user to adjust to their own exercise conditions, makes tracking your health and fitness goals a lot easier. The built-in pedometer also helps track your steps and calories burned.

BV9700 Pro is -via the external camera module, a perfect Night Vision camera that is equipped with Sony IMX291 ultra-light sensitive CMOS sensor, that not only captures images under low light conditions but gives you true night vision capability in greyscale monochrome or in color. The individual pixel size is up to 2.9μm, 2.6 times the phone’s main camera sensor. With the increase of pixels size, more light enters individual pixels. Add to that the ultra wide-angle 6P lens with a big aperture and your phone instantly turns into a night-vision camera, easily capturing wonderful moments in the dark.

Of course, the Blackview BV9700 Pro is still a rugged phone with extra durability and waterproofing and is suitable for blue-collar workers, travelers, and anyone who’s a tad clumsy. It comes with a reinforced aluminum frame, IP68/IP69K and MIL-STD-810G certifications, Gorilla Glass, and rubber flaps covering everything and making it as armored as a tank.

Ulefone Power 6 is the latest addition to the Power Series of the company and its official launch took place on June 17th. Only a few days later, the Chinese manufacturer posted the first hands-on video demonstrating the battery monster. Does it live up to the expectations of a battery flagship? Let’s see in the video below.

In the video, we can finally see the design of the device with the 6.3″ FHD+ display being surrounded by very thin bezels. The 19.5:9 aspect ratio delivers a more immersive and broader vision while the body curves offer a comfortable grip. Also seen on the video is the fast unlocking either with the fingerprint reader or through face unlock. Also, the Helio P35 SoC found in Power 6 is powerful enough to handle almost everything with the help of 4GB of RAM. The user in the video executed various app use scenarios that we use in everyday life and the phone remained smooth and fast.

On the camera side, there is a 16MP/2MP dual rear camera which supports different modes, like Bokeh mode, Pro Mode, etc and that helps the user choose the mode according to his liking. Meanwhile, the selfie shooter features a 16MP sensor for crisp selfie photos. And if you decide to go on a trip, don’t worry about getting lost as the phone packs four navigation systems (GPS/Glonass/Beidou/Galileo) and provides accurate and fast positioning. Also, the 6350mAh battery is larger than all current flagships without adding much thickness to the body and will easily get through 2 days of use.

Lastly, the Power 6 runs on Android 9 Pie that combines a friendly UX, smooth operation, excellent resource management, and secure environment. In addition, there is NFC support for contactless payments. The phone is currently on promotion over at Gearbest selling for just $159.99. Also, from June 24th to June 30th, 20 units each day will be offered for just $139.99 using coupon GBMPULEP6.

A couple of weeks back, the headline ‘Xiaomi outs the new Redmi Note 7 smartphone’ would have been technically correct. But now, it’s not. Redmi is a separate brand and so is Xiaomi’s Mi.

Welcome, 2019!

Redmi’s first smartphone this year, the Redmi Note 7 turned out to be great — not like the Redmi Note 6 Pro and the Redmi 6 which were lackluster. I mean, these two phones were not bad, they were not Xiaomi good either.

See what I did there? Xiaomi has become equivalent to value and affordability. But that’s not necessarily a good thing for the recently listed company.

The decision to split Redmi from the Xiaomi family was not just for the budget focused brand. Xiaomi’s flagship brand, ‘Mi’ should eventually benefit more from this decision. So, despite the spotlight being around Redmi going independent, I think we should see the real picture here, which is ‘Mi’ getting its own niche market.

Redmi’s the Real Hero!

Xiaomi has always been popular for its budget smartphones. Heck, if you are out to buy a budget phone, chances are, you have shortlisted a bunch of Redmi phones. Indeed it was Redmi phones that drove the company’s growth to a considerable extent all these years. So it wasn’t surprising to see analysts mentioning Redmi smartphone models that helped the Beijing-based company become the fourth largest smartphone maker in the world. But the same reports often failed to mention its flagship models.

A report from Kantar World Panel reveals that Xiaomi Mi 8 was the most popular smartphone in China in Q3 2018. So, it’s clear that the company is making efforts to fix this problem. Getting its flagship smartphones to sell well is most likely a priority for the company right now. After all, high-end smartphones command better margins, unlike budget phones. And it’s not just about margins. High-end users are likely to spend more on services, boosting overall revenue.

But with Redmi and Xiaomi walking the same road, it was always going to be difficult.

Finding Your Niche

Consider Honor and Huawei. Both of them have low-end phones as well as high-end phones. Honor’s new Honor View 20 with its punch hole camera shined at CES 2019 for its high-end features. Huawei’s low-end model, like the Huawei Enjoy 9 isn’t half bad for its price. But when you think of the two brands, how do you perceive them?

It’s very likely that when you think of Huawei, you think of the premium Mate 20 series and the P20 series. In short, when you are out to buy a flagship phone in 2019, a few of Huawei’s models are automatically shortlisted. Similarly, for affordable flagships or for affordable mid-rangers, Honor’s likely in your potential list. This perception hasn’t risen just out of a phone-by-phone comparison, it is a result of both brands being very clear about where they stand.

OnePlus is a good example of a successful niche brand. Realme and POCO are some additional examples which show how focusing on a particular market segment is the way to go.

Weak Flagship Game

Xiaomi knows its flagship game isn’t strong. Yes, the Mi Mix 3 is inspiring, but how many of you are seriously considering purchasing the device? In an important market like India, Xiaomi doesn’t even have a true flagship lineup. The best selling flagship model from the company is the POCO F1. But see how it’s not associated with the Xiaomi brand? Not to mention, the POCO F1 is an affordable flagship and not a premium one. 

Oh yes, if you really look around, you’ll find that the Mi Mix 2S is available in India. But it’s not doing so well. And they haven’t even launched its successor yet. 

The existing Xiaomi Mi 8 / Mi 8 Pro lineup have capable options. Heck, with the new updates, their cameras have become better as well. But they are overshadowed by the company’s brand perception.

But with Redmi and its budget offerings being sliced out of the Xiaomi brand, they have a chance. Mi series may finally advance as a solid premium brand!

Maybe, at the end of the year, I’ll be looking at a Xiaomi flagship (possibly the Mi 9 or the Mi Mix 4) as the best smartphone of the year.

With Xiaomi making its move to strengthen its premium segment, I am pretty confident that we would see a flagship that takes on the upcoming Mates and Galaxies in the market.

What say you?

The post Xiaomi’s Flagship Game isn’t strong, but the new ‘Redmi’ could change that appeared first on Gizmochina.

Huawei P9 turned out to be quite the success for the Chinese tech giant, which means next year, it needs to launch an even better version of the current generation model. Huawei focused on the dual cameras certified by Leica this year and the collaboration is said to continue in the upcoming models as well, including the Huawei P10. While there’s still a few months for the release of the P10 model (since P9 was released in April 2016), a few renders of the upcoming flagship have made its way on Weibo, revealing an interesting design.

The alleged Huawei P10 renders reveal that the phone will have a bezel-less display. So, it won’t be curved like the Huawei Mate 9 Pro, rather, the design seems to be similar to the Xiaomi Mi Mix. One of the renders even reveals that the phone will be quite thick, unlike the current generation Huawei P9 models which are just 7mm slim. Leica branded dual cameras are also seen on the back and there seems to be dual LED flash as well as Laser Focus on board. We can see a fingerprint sensor as well.

But what really sets these renders apart from the other ones that emerged lately is the secondary display on the side. It looks like the Huawei P10 could sport a small display strip on the left side to reveal essential data such as connectivity details, time and maybe even notifications. With bezel-less front and a secondary side display, the P10 could really be a great flagship for tech lovers.

However, we would like to note that these images come from Weibo and there’s no evidence that they are indeed of the Huawei P10. The images could be the work of photoshop by a Huawei fan, so better take it with a pinch of salt. But to be honest, the design looks quite interesting and we would hope something like this materializes on the P10.

HTC has set a new bar in the Android world by introducing the devices like the One M7 and One M8, which both had stunning all metal body design, top-notch specs and great, yet simple user interface.

This time around, we are waiting for a new true flagship device from the company, because it has been a while since they released their last flagship One M8. It seems that the new top seller will be a heck of the device as the benchmarking system Antutu disclosed quite a lot of specs.

As we can see from the above mentioned specs, the new HTC, which has a codename HTC Hima(M9) will be a true powerhouse. It uses a top of the line Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chip, clocked at up to 2.0GHz, Adreno 430 graphics processor, 3GB of Ram memory, 5 inches 1080P screen, 13mp front camera and 20.7 million-pixel rear camera (most likely Sony made), Android 5.0.1 with new HTC Sense skin on top of it.

We can say a few points about the upcoming device from the HTC. First, the good thing is that they are finally ditching the poorly received 4mp Ultra Pixel camera, which was a major drawback from the M8 device. We are happy to see a huge improvement in the camera department.

Secondly, staying with the 1080P screen may not sound a pretty good idea if the HTC want to have best of the best device in 2015. However, the necessity of Quad HD displays will always be a matter of discussion.

IUNI is one of the companies in China that managed to make a great start and shake up the competition. They may not have a market share like Xiaomi, but they are indeed a big threat in the future. This becomes even more obvious, because the company uses very similar marketing strategy – top-notch hardware for an amazing price.

What is more, the IUNI puts a lot of effort to the design of their products. They have already proven that by manufacturing their all metal smartphone – IUNI U2. It does not matter that it was released quite some time ago, it still offers a bunch of specs packed in a very attractive, high quality and compact design.

Company’s latest device – IUNI U3 also has one of the top hardware components, which are packed in a quite brilliant body. This time around, the IUNI decided to use more plastic instead of metal, but still, the alloy chassis and frame makes it quite a looker.

This time we have some interesting news for you as we see as what can possibly be the next flagship – IUNI U4.

If the numbers on the sketch are correct, the device should be in the category of compact smartphones. The length is supposed to be 130mm as the width is marked as 62mm. As far as thickness goes, it should be 8mm, which puts it in average category. Well, if we consider the latest Vivo X5 Max, it would be quite a fatty. In the end, 8mm is fair enough for most of people.

As far as other design elements go, the device is expected to have quite good screen to body ratio, where 4.7″ screen is chosen to assert the compact phone’s category. Also, there is a  headphone jack and power on/off button on top, speaker grill and micro usb port on the bottom.

What is more, there are two tripes at the back of the device, which impose the fact that the phone will be made out of aluminium or other alloy. Also, there is a camera with dual LED flash.

Having seen these design sketches we liked it. Well, but we noticed one aspect, which is the inspiration coming from another company (guess what). However, given the fact that the company always manages to offer amazing specs for even more amazing price, we may accept it.

The above sketches also suggest that some of the previous leaks, which implied the fact of existence of IUNI u4 already in flesh and blood turn out to be fake.

All in all, this is quite interesting move by IUNI to produce a compact class device. So far it seems that only Sony has managed to offer a compact device with no compromise to the specs (Z1 or Z3 compact series). Can IUNI do the same?

YunOS  announced its first partner in its official Weibo today, Philiips’s first flagship Aurora would be the first model to feature YounOS 3.0 rather than the most controvercial brand Meizu.

Meizu MX4 sports MTK 6595, YunOS also has a good partnership with MTK, that is why the public predicted that YunOS would tend to cooperate with Meizu. Philiips would attend the launch event of YounOS 3.0 on October 20th. But as its first flagship, it seems that they don’t have any moves to cooperate with each other at this time.
