Huawei P30 Pro hands-on pictures leaked online

Seems like companies are playing the rumor game to get their products hyped on social media. Just today, we saw leaked camera samples of the Realme 3 and now hands-on images of the Huawei P30 Pro have been seen online. The device is rumored to launch sometime at the end of the first quarter but the pictures have been leaked early. And if you are wondering what the device looks like, here is the leaked image,

The image shows how the device may come with 3 cameras. There has also been spotted another image that shows the bottom of the phone signifying there is no headphone jack. So, we can assume the USB-C port is what would be used for audio output in headphones just like the Mate 30 pro.

The P30 series, Just like the Samsung Galaxy S10 series, will consist of 3 smartphones, namely, the Huawei P30 Pro, the Huawei P30 and the Huawei P30 Lite. The P30 Pro is the higher end variant of the three and the pictures leaked are of the same device. However, these pictures are said to be a dummy design of the upcoming phone and no confirmation from the company’s side has been made so far regarding the looks of it.

As for the branding seen on the device, its codenamed “Vogue” which will reportedly be renamed “Leica” on the final product. And by the looks of it, the design is somewhat closer to the Mate 20 Pro keeping the aesthetics of the P20 intact.

Earlier, the leaks suggested that the device may be coming with a quad- camera setup at the rear, but the leaked images show a different story. However, Huawei’s P lineup always focuses on cameras and looks, so this time too we expect an upgrade in both the departments.

JerryRigEverything: Redmi Note 7’s BendGate is real!

Redmi Note 7 – A phone that created a lot of buzz in the market. First, with its 48 MP camera hardware with pixel binning. Then, we found the camera was not as good as the Redmi Note 5 AI, actually. And then, the Redmi Note 7 Bendgate! After that, we found out the Redmi Note 7 was a bit unwilling to bend. So many issues, so much buzz, so much controversy around that device!

The first bend gate was pointed out by Technical Guruji, one of the most popular tech reviewers of India. He tested the phone for durability and bent it easily. But while doing so, he didn’t seem to apply even pressure at the central point of the phone, which was seemingly unscientific, resulting in the breakage. And for that, the guy received a lot of heat.

Then, another video surfaced about the phone. Gupta Information Systems, which is another popular tech channel, took the phone for a spin with bend test, scratch test, durability test, splash test and such. And the phone passed the bend test, albeit bending a bit, but returning to its original state. Due to it going through all those extra steps and a more scientific approach, it seemed like a more genuine of a bend test.

But now, we have the mother of all tests! JerryRigEverything, which is one of the most popular channels in the world to test the durability of tech, rigged the Redmi Note 7. And it almost survived… In his tests, he goes through all his normal procedures, where the phone fares like most others do. But on the bend test, the phone bends easily. And there is no questioning his techniques! The phone bends, there are no two ways around it! Maybe, the weakness lies in the plastic frame of the phone, but it’s out there for everyone to see.

Yes, you might argue that Zach, of JerryRigEverthing, is a pretty muscular guy, and he can bend phones more easily than others, too. But of course, that also proves the phone will withstand your day to day abuses. No one will be bending their phones like that anyway, which he states himself. Yet, this phone didn’t survive, when most others do. And so, now, we can rest…the conflict has come to an end…we have the result. The Redmi Note 7 – so it bends!

Now, we don’t mean to bash someone and praise some other. This is about the phone, and we’re just making you aware of what’s going on. If we had the phone in our hands, maybe, we’d bend-test it ourselves. But for now, we don’t need to…we already know.

Realme 3’s Antutu score & camera sample leak and they look impressive!

Realme seems serious about cameras on their devices. We tested the Realme 2 Pro and got outstanding results and the new leaked images of the Realme 3 guide us to believing that it will awe us too. Some comparison shots of the Realme 3, Samsung Galaxy M20 and Redmi Note 7 have been leaked on the internet today and what we see in the pictures is very clear to what Realme is trying to show us, the quality of the cameras in its upcoming device.

Not more than 4 days ago, the company leaked about the design the upcoming device is going to come with. The device is rumored to come with a starry back finish.

So, coming back to the topic at hand, the Realme 3 is said to launch on March 3 and before the launch here are some leaked camera samples. And interesting is that these have perfectly defined which smartphones are the Realme 3 going to compete with. Check out these samples,

Looking at all these samples, it’s evident that the company is trying to deliver the fact that the Realme 3 will have a better HDR function in the cameras. The enhanced HDR function is called Chrome Boost. And evidently it’s doing an excellent job in the shadow areas and details of the pictures against rivals Galaxy M20 and Redmi Note 7.

Also, the company has added a nightscape mode, which in simple language is a handheld night mode for taking better images in low light conditions without making use of a tripod. Similarly, as far as the leaks go, the Realme 3 will automatically fight against the shakiness in night images while taking a long exposure shot. Check out this sample,

Also, we see a leaked image showing the Antutu score of the upcoming device and the score is a massive 137976. The device is reportedly said to have MediaTek’s Helio P70 processor powering it.

As of now, the pictures have been leaked and it’s, clear what the company is trying to tell the audiences. We would definitely want to see what the cameras of the Realme 3 are capable of after it launches on the 3rd of March.

Xiaomi collaborated with Light to bring ‘DSLR-level’ Imaging in its smartphones

When Light brought the Light L16 camera back in 2016, everyone was awe-inspired. The camera had a whopping 16 lenses and all of them were packed in a very compact body. That’s not all, the device back then was also capable of capturing images like top-tier DSLRs. And for the very reason, the device also received an award for its exceptional computational imaging and the cost-effective multi-camera imaging prowess. Some of the popular tech reviewers also saw the device as a replacement to bulky cameras.

After that, we did not hear much from that imaging company. But recently, when Nokia released the Nokia 9 PureView at an event in MWC 2019, the name of the company came into the light once again. Nokia 9 PureView create a buzz in the MWC because of the Penta camera setup at its back. And since Light was the one, who developed it, the company also received fair of attention and appreciation. All thanks to its sophisticated computational software and intelligent processing power.

Addressing the proficiency of the Light Company in computational imaging, different companies are reaching out to Light for collaboration. The company recently announced a partnership with Sony. When that’s still fresh news, Light further announced the partnership with the Chinese internet company Xiaomi. With this partnership, Xiaomi is positive on bringing multi-camera devices with Light and enabling them with DSLR-level capabilities.

“We are thrilled to partner with Light to leverage their advanced imaging solutions for our future devices,” said Zhu Dan, VP, smartphone division, GM of camera department, Xiaomi. “Xiaomi works tirelessly to remain at the forefront of smartphone innovation, and perfecting smartphone photography is a key focus for us. We are excited to work on devices using Light’s technology so our users can produce even more amazing photos.”

We saw multi-camera setups on various smartphones. Triple camera on Samsung Galaxy S10, S10+, Huawei Mate 20 Pro, etc. and quad-camera setup on Samsung Galaxy A9 2018 are the few examples. All these smartphones used lenses with different focal lengths. However, the Penta-camera setup on recently announced Nokia 9 PureView has used five different lenses all with the same focal length. So we are yet to see, how the Xiaomi-Light smartphone will turn out to be. Will it focus on image quality, versatility or both? I guess, we should probably have to wait for the official launch of the smartphone to get the answer.

A complete list of Intel’s 9th Gen processors and what do they mean

Intel’s 9th Gen processor family felt ever so incomplete until now. The performance-oriented Coffe Lake-based unlocked CPUs are now joined by more performance oriented chips. Although this time, the listing also includes mobile processors alongside a few other interesting slabs of silicon. If you wanna know about the previously released K-processors, click here. As of now, we have a total of 16 processors (9 officially released) in the 9th Gen family, and that’s excluding the X-series.

Intel’s F suffix

Let’s take the i9-9900KF for example, it’s basically a 9900K without it’s integrated GPU. These processors are (hopefully) slightly cheaper than it’s counterparts and won’t work without a dedicated GPU. A total of four F suffix CPUs have emerged, covering all, including the Core-i3 lineup. All share identical specs and CTP scores as compared to their non-F suffix chips (provided there is one).

CPU Model Number Core/Thread Count Base Frequency Turbo Frequency Composite Theoretical Performance (CTP)
Intel Core i9 9900KF 8C/16T 3.6GHz 5GHz 705,600 MTOPs
Intel Core i7 9700KF 8C/8T 3.6GHz 4.9GHz 705,600 MTOPs
Intel Core i5 9600KF 6C/6T 3.7GHz 4.7GHz 550,683 MTOPs
Intel Core i5 9400F 6C/6T 2.9GHz 4.1GHz 431,617 MTOPs
Intel Core i3 9350KF 4C/4T 4.0GHz 4.6GHz 406,667 MTOPs

Intel’s 9th Gen Mobile Processors

Now, coming to the 9th Gen mobile processors, these are yet to go official or make its way to the Intel’s official website. But, the leaks do suggest a fair share of what we can expect. And, when was the last time a leak this good turned out to be false right? All of the leaked CPUs come with the H suffix, carry a modest 45W TDP and should create a new standard for the next-gen gaming laptops with RTX GPUs. Given that the 9980HK (unlocked) can do 5GHz and comes with 8 cores on a portable system is pretty impressive.

CPU Model Number Core/Thread Count Turbo Frequency Composite Theoretical Performance (CTP)
Core i9-9980HK 8C/16T 5GHz 470,400 MTOPs
Core i9-9880H 8C/16T 4.8GHz 450,800 MTOPs
Core i7-9850H 6C/6T 4.6GHz 386,967 MTOPs
Core i7-9750H 6C/6T 4.5GHz 386,967 MTOPS
Core i5-9400H 4C/8T 4.3GHz 254,167 MTOPs
Core i5-9300H 4C/8T 4.1GHz 244,000 MTOPs

The non-suffix Intel Processors

Now, we’ve covered the KF processors, the mobile processors, and the K-series processors. All that’s left are those non-suffix desktop oriented CPUs that are locked, offer fairly decent performance, and best of all are budget friendly. There are currently two chips that fall under this category. The i5-9400 is official and should be available starting soon enough. Either way, both should be a favorite among builders who want a capable affordable system.

CPU Model Number Core/Thread Count Turbo Frequency Composite Theoretical Performance (CTP)
Core i5-9400 6C/6T 4.1GHz 431,617 MTOPs
Core i3-9100 4C/4T 4.2GHz 366,000 MTOPs

MWC 2019: World’s first and fastest 1TB microSD card from Micron and SanDisk

Yep, 1TB of storage on a microSD card, just think about it. That is a lot of storage, especially when you consider most would put it on a smartphone. And that is if your smartphone even supports 1TB of expandable storage. Plus, who even needs a terabyte of storage? What do you think? Would you buy it for the asking price $499?

Both companies unveiled their own versions of the card at the ongoing MWC event in Barcelona. Both have picked up their own bragging subjects too. Micron boasting about being the first to commercially be available while SanDisk claims it’s faster. But really, do you even care if the card you bought was the first in the world?

People trust SanDisk-brand cards to capture and preserve their world. Our goal is to deliver the best possible experience so consumers can share the content that’s important to them
-WD director of Marketing

The Micron’s SD card boasts a peak read speed of 100MB/s, white write speeds reach up to 95MB/s. As with the SanDisk bragging about its superior product, which can do up to 160MB/s read and 100MB/s write. I would definitely go for the SanDisk, which has more read and write speeds, but if your opinion differs from mine, well, good for you.

As for pricing, the $499 price tag is for the SanDisk’s product and its availability will start this April. Micron hasn’t yet revealed the pricing but says their product will go on sale sometime in Q2 this year with a “competitive” price tag. Yet, a similarly featured 512GB microSD costs around $200 but the premium is sure to go down with time.

MWC 2019: Alcatel announces 3 new smartphones and a tablet!

Not all companies are showing off foldable or bezel-less phones in this years MWC! One of those is Alcatel. But it does have 3 phones and a tablet to show off in MWC 2019. Alcatel has launched the Alcatel 1S, Alcatel 3L and Alcatel 3 alongside a tablet named Alcatel 3T.

Alcatel 3L:

Second among the launches is the Alcatel 3L which like the, 1S has a plastic build but unlike the previous one, has a Snapdragon 429 processor with just 2 GB of RAM. Aesthetics- wise, we’re looking at a 5.94-inch HD+ display with 19.5:9 aspect ratio. And this tie, the device has a tiny notch on top for the selfie camera. Speaking of which, the selfie camera is an 8 MP sensor and at the back, we see dual cameras like the 1s but different in Megapixel counts.

alcatel 3L

The back houses two cameras, one with 13 MP RGB sensor and another, a depth sensor with a megapixel count of 5MP. So, with those cameras, you get features like Bokeh effect and AI scene detection. Additionally, there is Google Lens support included.

However, the 3L disappoints with only having Android 8.1 Oreo, whereas the more inexpensive 1S has Android Pie. However, the company says, the device will get Android Pie in Q2 of this year. Additionally, the phone also has Facial Recognition.

Alcatel 3 2019

The Alcatel 3 2019’s design is similar to the 3L, but with more memory and speed. Not only the design is similar, but other things are similar to the 3L like, the design, display and camera setup. However, this one has a slightly powerful Snapdragon 439 processor with two memory configuration options, 3GB/32GB or 4GB/64GB. Unlike the 3L, this one has Android 9.0 Pie out of the box and overpowers the Alcatel 3L in many aspects.

alcatel 3 2019

Other than this, the Alcatel 3 2019 is available in different gradient colors like  Gradient Black Blue and Gradient Blue Purple.

Alcatel 3T 10

Alcatel 3T 10 is an interesting product offer. It’s a tablet standing at 10 inches of 800x 1280 pixels IPS display. The “3” in the name is for Tablet and the “10” signifies the 10- inch display. That is not the interesting part, however. The intriguing part is that fact that the table has a sort of smart display. This one features a far-field recognition of up to 3 meters, meaning you can trigger Google Assistant hands-free.

alcatel 3t 10

Other than that, the 3T has an unspecified processor with 2GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory with support for external memory expansion. Camera -wise, there is an unimpressive 2 MP front camera and rear camera.

Battery capacity is a huge 4,080 mAh which is considerable for such a huge display. Also, the device comes with Android 9.0 Pie out of the box, which is a good thing.

Although the specs are not as impressive to lure a lot of audiences, it can be a good deal for people wanting a tablet that functions as a smart display/ speaker of sorts.

Lenovo Tab V7 announced at MWC 2019 – A tall smartphone on a budget

At a time when the smartphone makers are pushing their limits by launching foldable smartphones, Lenovo went old school by launching a tablet in 2019. The Lenovo Tab V7 is not actually a tablet by the way. It is basically a smartphone in the form factor of a tablet.

Lenovo Tab V7 Overview

In terms of resolution, the Lenovo tab V7 comes with a 6.9-inch IPS LCD panel. But despite being a budget device, the phone features Full-HD+ resolution. The display comes in an 18:9 aspect ratio ditching the notches.

But the device stops getting exciting when peeked into its processor. The device is equipped with a Snapdragon 450 chipset, which is not capable of handling bigger workloads. Nonetheless, there is 4GB of RAM to aid in multitasking. On the storage side, the phone is enriched with 64GB of internal memory. Plus, there is also an option to expand the storage to 128GB via Micro SD card.

Talking about the optics, the phone comes with a 13MP camera at the back ignoring the ongoing trend dual camera. Even on the front, there is just a single 5MP camera dedicated to capturing selfies. Despite the presence of a single camera, the phone will capture portrait images when needed. But since there is no secondary camera to fetch the depth info, the blurring process entirely takes place through the software intelligence.

This tall smartphone again starts to get interesting when the capacity of the battery is addressed. The Lenovo tab V7 comes with a 5180mAh battery, which is quite capable of fueling the device for a considerable period of time. But despite the massive size of the battery, the phone is merely 7.9mm in terms of thickness. Lenovo might have used all the empty spaces very cleverly. On the software front, the phone boots with the latest Android 9 Pie out of the box.

Lenovo Tab V7 Price & Availability

The phone will be available only in the Black color. And it will hit the market starting from April. When it comes to the price, the phone will demand  €249 on the purchase.

MWC 2019: Nubia Alpha is a foldable smartwatch, which doubles as a flexible smartphone

We saw quite a lot from Samsung’s Galaxy Fold and Huawei’s Mate X foldable smartphones. It was obvious to see such innovative products from such big players in the smartphone arena. But the story of the foldable device does not actually end there. Alongside the Mate X, Nubia also launched the Nubia Alpha foldable smartwatch at a grand event in MWC 2019. Written as Nubia α, this foldable smartphone also doubles as a flexible smartphone.

The concept of foldable looks truly fascinating. The idea of using a mobile device to view contents into a large screen with a privilege to bend and carry it around the pocket is surely amazing. To achieve more or less the same amount of versatility, ZTE’s subsidiary brand this time launched a Nubia α smartwatch.

The display on the smartwatch comes in a tall and narrow form factor. A 4.0-inch Super AMOLED panel has been used on the device, which comes with 960 x 192 pixels resolution at 45:9 aspect ratio. To develop a foldable display for the smartwatch is not an easy job. So Nubia collaborated with Visionox, which happens to be a specialist in the flexible display business. Alongside the flexible display, the wearable also comes with water and dust proof body. It has also received an IP67 certification for that.

Apart from the flexible screen, the phone has got Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear 2100 chipset, which is rather dated. The chipset has already been replaced by Wear 3100 chipset last year. The device also comes with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of onboard memory. As far as battery is concerned, the wearable is fueled by a 5000mAh battery. And according to the company, the battery will keep the device alive for a day or two on a single charge. Adding to the hardware is a 5MP camera, which can be handy while doing some video calls and for taking selfies.

Being a smart wearable, the smartwatch also comes with a fitness tracker to monitor the heart rate, sleep cycle and exercise patterns. And these features are accessible from Nubia’s custom OS, which goes by the name of Android Wear OS 2.1. Furthermore, the OS also supports voice commands, multi-touch feature, and some finicky air gestures just like what we saw on the LG’s new flagship devices.

“All of your information is perfectly organized and within reach. Infinitely customizable, intuitive, and visually striking, our new wearable OS is a whole new way to interact with what you care about most,” the company boasted in a press release.

On the connectivity side, this smart device comes with Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi-Fi. There is also the 4G LTE connectivity option on one variant with which users can use the device as a smartphone. However, only an electronic SIM (or eSIM) can be used in the device.
