Samsung Galaxy Fold release happening very shortly

Samsung Galaxy Fold

The foldable phone category may finally take its flight after some weeks of being canceled. The Samsung Galaxy Fold is said to be free in the coming weeks although there is no precise date provided yet. There is no giving up for the South Korean tech massive since it’s been working on this tech for years now. Just previous week, we were told fix was still not done but looks like there is some improvement. We’re not sure how numerous firmware versions are obtainable but we’re only looking forward to a fix for the display breaking.

Initially, Samsung was preparing to release the Galaxy Fold previous April 26. Some members of the press were given the phone as assessment units but unfortunately, most of them practiced displays breaking.

Samsung hasn’t actually sent out proper enlightenment or fix but some people are saying it happens when the caring layer is removed. It’s not the only problem but it’s the most irritating one reported. It doesn’t seem to be an isolated case but still looking onward to an official fix.

The Samsung Galaxy Fold may not see a June release but something can change. It may happen next month since we’re approximately in the middle of June.

Samsung is still launching the Galaxy Fold. The South Korean tech massive is optimistic the fix will be prepared even if pre-orders have been canceled on Best Buy. We’re looking onward to the changes and the market launch not only in South Korea and the United States but also in other countries.

The US launch will not be too late according to mobile chief DJ Koh. amusingly, other Samsung products are also on hold similar to the Galaxy Home smart speaker. It’s theoretical to be out this quarter but release has been moved to Q3.

There is no mention why the smart speaker is being delayed but we’re looking onward to Samsung keeping its promises. It’s not like the brand to hold manufacture and get delayed in market rollouts.

OnePlus 7 Pro transparent back shows you almost everything

OnePlus7 Pro

This isn’t your usual teardown from Zack Nelson but it’s just as exciting. He reveals the completely clear OnePlus 7 Pro by tearing down the phone cautiously and then making the rear panel transparent. The rear of the smartphone appears precise at first glimpse but we will have to see how the Chinese OEM truly laid out the components. JerryRigEverything isn’t checking further within the device but only the rear part of the phone to see how the motorized camera works.

Zack Nelson has forever been careful when it comes to opening mobile devices but he’s twice as careful when it comes to the OnePlus 7 Pro. Cables are fragile but Zack manages to remain them intact. Heating up the sides of the phone effortlessly softens the glue so the panel is alienated fast from the other part.

The back of the phone is visibly covered by a thin layer material. It easily peels off so getting it out in one piece is someway satisfying. Simply warmth of the back panel so peeling off is easier.

The back glass now appears frosted. It’s not actually clear but we can absolutely see through it.

Now on to the pop-up selfie camera, it appears alike to that of the old Vivo NEX S. We’re not truly expecting anything latest on the selfie camera design. We just wish to know if it can last frequent use.

JerryRigEverything can do another teardown. It will be more thorough so we’ll lastly see the underneath the battery.

When it comes to toughness, the latest Durability Test also done by Zack Nelson has exposed that it is. The OnePlus 7 Pro’s screen and back are scratchless. The front display isn’t damaged and doesn’t show any residue after almost a minute of being located under heat. Flexing the phone from both the back and front don’t injure the unit.

Honor 20 Pro promo images appear before launch

Honor 20 Pro

The Honor sub-brand is doing well. There is no mention how many units the company is selling but there are some models existing in the market. A couple of days ago, the Honor 20 Lite launched with a triple back camera and a 32MP selfie shooter. The Honor 20 series has started to appear so expect other variants like the Pro version to be unveiled shortly. Recently surfacing are teaser images of the Honor 20 Pro. They’re new like promo photos and not just renders.

The set was shared by a source, confirming a number of details we’ve heard previously. Interestingly, there is no camera hole so we’re pretentious a pop-up camera.

While the Honor 20 Lite comes with a waterdrop notch, the Honor 20 Pro may have a hidden camera somewhere. It can be unspecified a pop-up selfie shooter as with most flagship smartphones from the top OEMs we recognize. However, there is no show of such component on the images provided.

So where’s the selfie camera? It’s there somewhere. Or could this now be the regular Honor 20?

We’ve featured the Honor 20 phone sequence several times. We keep in mind the Honor 20 specs and images that surfaced on Weibo. The Honor 20i turned away to be the Honor 20 Lite.

The launch is happening extremely quickly. Let’s assessment the specs and features we identify so far: 6.1-inch bezel-less display, fingerprint sensor, SIM card tray, 6GB or 8GB of RAM, 28GB or 256GB storage space, a triple rear camera system (48MP + 20MP + 8MP), 5x optical zoom, 10x hybrid zoom, and time-of-flight (ToF) sensor. The phone may also be power-driven by a Kirin 980 processor and a 3650mAh battery. The source says a quad camera arrangement like the Huawei P30 Pro may also be an option.

Color options contain Black, Blue, and Pearl White. A Red Moschino Special version may be out as well. Design-wise, the Honor 20 and Honor 20 Pro seem close to the Huawei P30 Pro based on the images we’ve seen in the past.

Huawei P Smart Z with pop-up selfie cam renders surface online

Huawei P smart Z

The pop-up selfie camera design is this year’s notch. Last year, the temper was all about the notch on the front display, housing the selfie camera, and ensuing in an almost bezel-less screen. To attain a fully bezel-less display, there are two possibilities: use a pop-up selfie shoot or implement a slider mechanism. Think Vivo V15/V15 Pro, Vivo X27, Vivo NEX, Samsung Galaxy A80, OPPO F11 Pro, OPPO Find X, Honor Magic 2, and the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3. These phones have unseen the selfie cameras, eliminating the requirement for a notch or a camera hole.

We can’t say if the two designs that conceal the front-facing cameras will turn into standards in the market but we won’t be astonished at all if top OEMs like Huawei use them. The Samsung Galaxy A80 launched with a slider design and rotating cameras.

Huawei used the similar idea on the Honor Magic 2. The Chinese company is anticipated to use the design more in the future. The pop-up selfie cam design may also be used by Huawei as revealed off in the renders of the Huawei P Smart Z.

The Huawei P30 series immobile features a notch but a next phone offering could have the pop-up selfie camera design. Even the Huawei P Smart 2019 version still uses a dewdrop notch.

The next phones, the Huawei P Smart Z and the Huawei P Smart X, could be out in the Netherlands first since the renders appeared on a Dutch website.

The Huawei P Smart Z mid-range phone is said to swank the following specs and features: 6.59-inch Full HD+ screen, 2340 × 1080 pixel declaration, 391ppi, 19.5:9 aspect ratio, 16MP pop-up selfie camera and f/2.0 lens, octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 710 processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB onboard storage space, and a 4000mAh battery. The back dual cameras are a combination of 16MP f/1.8 and 2MP f/2.4 sensor.

Huawei will preserve the 3.5mm headphone port and back fingerprint scanner. Color options contain Blue, Green, and Black. Pricing may start at €210 ($234).

There will still be the OnePlus 7 Series and a OnePlus 7 Pro will be obtainable. The brand that wants the public to “Never Settle” isn’t mum about the next-gen flagship Android phone.

As early as November previous year, we were told OnePlus 7 wouldn’t implement 5G tech yet but a 5G phone would be prepared from the Chinese phone maker. The possibility of a 5G phone is predictable because the OnePlus 7 will run on Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 that supports 5G.

The 5G model may be luxurious. It may cost more but not that expensive at all. The OnePlus 7 phone may also not have wireless charging yet but 5G support will be all set.

We’ve seen OnePlus 7 images leaked and latest renders then appeared. More live images surfaced, showing NO notch or camera hole.

Some specs and pricing were scheduled on a retailer’s website. The 360-degree video was believable but we were told to only stay for the official launch of the flagship killer that is actually fast and smooth.

OnePlus 7

Another week, one more round of leaks about the imminent OnePlus 7. The phone series has been a hot topic since the previous year, the first time we heard the phone wouldn’t implement 5G tech yet. A 5G phone alternative may still be on the horizon particularly since it will run on a Snapdragon 855 chipset which offers 5G support. The OnePlus 7 5G model is anticipated to be pricey but not that luxurious. One thing we recognize for sure will happen: a OnePlus 7 Pro will also be obtainable.

More image renders and 360-video have appeared, showing us the latest phones could be flagship killers with OnePlus 5G apps and the absence of a notch or camera hole.

New Realme device appears online, could be imminent Realme 3 Pro

RealMe

We’ve recognized for over a month now that the Realme 3 Pro is coming, gratitude to the brand’s own confirmation. Now, we may have established some key details via the Bluetooth SIG website.

The website has listed a Realme smartphone with model number RMX1851. By assessment, the standard Realme 3 has the model numbers RMX1821 and RMX1825. But the listing gives us more than now a model number to go on…

The supposed Realme 3 Pro is packing a 6.3-inch full HD screen, 3,960mAh battery, fingerprint scanner, ColorOS 6.0, and an octa-core 2.208Ghz Snapdragon chipset.

In the case of the processor, a swift Google search for “2.208Ghz Snapdragon” yields unofficial references to the Snapdragon 710 chipset. But there are other Snapdragon chips that top out at 2.2Ghz too, explicitly the Snapdragon 660 and 730 series.

The Realme 3 Pro is planned to launch on April 22, so we’ll recognize for sure whether this listing is indeed the genuine deal then. But for now, it seems like we’re looking at something a little more influential than the standard Realme 3.

Realme has however exposed a few Realme 3 Pro features via its Twitter account, such as marvelous slow-mo support, and Hyper Boost tech for smoother gaming. Here’s hoping the device isn’t an incremental improvement like the Realme 3 was compared to its predecessor. What are you expecting from the Pro model? Let us know in the comments!
