How many cameras are enough? How many are too many? The Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018) came out around three and a half years ago and it was the first ever quad camera phone. It promised a lot of versatility, allowing you to switch between three focal lengths to get the best possible framing for your shot, as rendering a shallow depth of field normally possible only with the large sensors of DSLRs. Let’s look at the camera roster of the A9. There were three usable cameras on the back and one utility module (we’ll get to the front-facing camera later). 24 MP primary camera, f/1.7 aperture,... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/9WHNuZ0

Money, money, money – it always comes down to the price of a phone these days. The OnePlus Ace, which launched as the OnePlus 10R in India a few days ago, has potential, but the company has to hit the right price point. Many in the comments were wishing that this will be a sub-€400 phone in Europe, however, while we don’t know the exact price yet, the €450 price tag of the Realme GT Neo2 makes it unlikely. We do know the price for India: ₹39,000 for the base model (80W charging, 5,000 mAh battery) and ₹44,000 for the Endurance Edition (150W charging, 4,500 mAh battery).

Last November, we heard the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 arriving this year will have the same battery capacity as the Galaxy Z Flip3. But, a new report by Dutch publication GalaxyClub claims the Galaxy Z Flip4 will pack a slightly larger battery. The publication says that the Galaxy Z Flip4 (SM-F721) will come with two batteries, having model codes EB-BF721ABY and EB-BF722ABY. The former is referred to by Samsung internally as a "sub battery" and is the larger of the two with a rated capacity of 2,400 mAh, while the latter is the main battery having a rated capacity of 903 mAh.

Remember when new phone announcements used to happen all in one go, at one event, with zero specs being officially outed beforehand by the companies themselves? Those were the days. Then OnePlus came along and changed the game with its drip feeding of small tidbits method of creating and sustaining hype over extended periods of time. Well, now everybody's doing just that, and vivo sub-brand iQOO has been applying exactly this formula when it comes to the Neo6 SE.

The Pixel Watch leaks campaign is now in full force ahead of its probable announcement at Google I/O next month. We've already seen a prototype "accidentally" "forgotten" in a restaurant, in a box but with no charger. This very conveniently managed to show the world the upcoming hardware without also portraying any part of its software. Then the watch got certified by the Bluetooth SIG in three versions, and today a new rumor drip-feeds us the next bit of info: the battery capacity. It's going to be 300 mAh. Is that large? Is that small? Let's put it into context. The Pixel Watch... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/zJ3nWMo

DxOMark published its review of the OnePlus 10 Pro's camera and it appears to be in line with most of the reviews out there. The conclusion is that the handset has some considerable issues that keep it from matching its rivala. As a result, the handset takes 27th place in DxOMark's global ranking, right behind the likes of Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro, Mi 11 Pro, vivo X60 Pro+ and Apple iPhone 12 Pro. All are more than year-old flagships. The most notable cons DxOMark pointed out are color artifacts with a pink-ish cast, especially in low-light conditions, ghosting and fusion artifacts.

The India phone market had a tough first quarter of the year. According to Counterpoint Research, makers pushed 38 million smartphones, which is 1% less than they did twelve months ago. Feature phones sales between January and March 2022 went off a cliff though, falling 39%. This brings the overall sales decrease to 16%.

Apple has just reported its quarterly results for its fiscal second quarter, which ended on March 26 and is thus confusingly the first quarter of the year (fiscal years are funny like that sometimes). Anyway, it's good news for the Cupertino company, as it's posted record revenue for a March quarter. Apple's revenue was $97.3 billion in that quarter, up 9% year-on-year (aka compared to the 2021 March quarter). This resulted in quarterly earnings per diluted share of $1.52, which you should care about only if you own Apple shares.

Yesterday vivo sub-brand iQOO announced that it will fully unveil the Neo6 SE smartphone on May 6, while also teasing some of its specs. Before that, we'd already seen some of its specs leak, but so far what was missing was a clue as to the design of the device. Well, the wait is over, as a bunch of Chinese retailers already have listings of the iQOO Neo6 SE up, and these all reveal the image you can see below. The Neo6 SE is thus very reminiscent of the Neo6 in terms of design, which is no surprise given the seemingly identical display specs and size of the two handsets.

The Samsung Galaxy M51 was long overdue to get Google's latest OS, but, on the other hand, this is almost a two-year-old mid-range handset, so kudos to Samsung for pushing a second major update. Anyway, the handset is reportedly getting Android 12 in Russia with build number M515FXXU4DVD1 and it will likely hit other markets pretty soon. That's how the company usually distributes updates.

However, it's worth noting that iQOO achieved those results when it charged the battery in a room with an ambient temperature of 26°C, and the charging time will likely vary depending on your room's ambient temperature. iQOO previously confirmed that the Neo6 SE will be powered by the Snapdragon 870 SoC and have 256GB... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/s6MZaXU

Following an earlier release of an Open Beta build of Android 12 for the original Nord, today OnePlus has finally managed to get round to issuing a similar release for the much newer Nord2, which launched last July running Android 11 and is still stuck on that version of the OS even today.
