The listing further reveals that the Moto G5 Plus will come under the model number XT1685 and also states that it should arrive in the market by March this year. The seller goes on to reveal the specs of the Moto G5. The device is expected to come fitted with a 5.5-inch FHD display and under the hood will be Snapdragon 625 paired with a generous 4GB of RAM. On the storage front, the device is expected to offer 32GB of internal memory and it is most likely that we might also get a 64GB version as well....

The Moto Z Play comes fitted with a 5.5-inch FHD Super AMOLED display and is powered by an octa-core Snapdragon 625 SoC clocked at 2GHz and paired with 3GB of RAM. On the storage front the Z Play offers 32GB of internal memory. The fingerprint sensor finds a place on the front façade just like in the other Motorola devices. Imaging setup on the Moto Z Play consists of a 16-Megapixel primary sensor with laser and phase detect autofocus and the secondary camera is a 5-Megapixel sensor....

These are the questions that aren’t easy to answer. Motorola has come up with a pretty interesting idea, which may even seem awkward at first – they’ve created a smartphone to function as the “heart” of a laptop. Motorola Atrix is the name of this unusual device and it can be bought in USA for 200$ (AT&T plan). It has a very powerful processor and uses Android as operating system....

The Skip 2.0 fob will have a replaceable coin-style battery and will keep your phone unlocked when nearby. So, when the fob moves out of Bluetooth range from the phone, your phone will securely lock and will require a PIN to be used. You’ll also be able to track the fob’s location or make it beep in case you lose your keys. It’s really cool that it works in reverse, as well, so it can help if you can’t find your phone....

The VPN service is paid and as of now, in the beta stages, the tariff is $4.99 per month which also includes Firefox Private Network’s browser-level protection. Using a VPN has its own advantages. You get access to blocked websites as well as an added layer of security while browsing the web that can mask your actual location. Firefox isn’t the first browser to come with a VPN service baked in....

The iPhone SE will look almost alike the 5S suggesting a much boxier aesthetic instead of curved looks with rounded volume buttons and power button on the top. It will flaunt a metal back rounded off with glass on both sides. We’ve seen numerous images before that showcases a more curved design, as a result, nothing can be said for certain as of now. The Edges on SE will be a lot less shiny with matte finishes providing a much cleaner outline and less susceptible to scratches....

Nokia 2.4 In terms of design, the Nokia 2.4 comes with a 3D nano-textured back, which promises to offer a comfortable grip in hand. Towards the front, it features a 6.5-inch display that comes in at a 20:9 aspect ratio and offers HD+ screen resolution. Nokia 2.4 comes in three colorways: Dusk, Charcoal, and Fjord. Under the hood, the phone runs on MediaTek Helio P22, which is a two-year-old processor that comes with eight cores and up to 2....

The video, which is interestingly shot in portrait mode, is possibly meant to be marketing material for social platforms like Instagram. As per the leaked video, the Nokia 9 will sport 5 cameras with Zeiss optics, hence the name “Pureview” which also confirms the speculations we’ve been hearing from the rumor mills. The camera arrangement is claimed to take 5 simultaneous shots to produce an image with up to 10x more light when compared to a normal single camera smartphone....

The phone is amongst the first devices to run on the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor with up to 6GB of RAM and up to 128GB of storage. Sadly, the X7 still runs on Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box, but knowing HMD, it should soon be upgraded to Android 9 Pie. The primary camera on the rear is a 12MP Sony IMX 363 sensor with f/1.8 aperture and OIS support with ZEISS optics with a secondary 13MP sensor for depth sensing....

Apart from being relatively more affordable, the OnePlus Bullets Wireless’ primary highlight is the magnetic earbuds. Clipping them together pauses the music and pulling them out, resumes it. Another key feature OnePlus is advertising is the fact that the Bullets Wireless are sweat as well as rainproof. Just like the OnePlus 6, the company is not being quite transparent with the rating and hence, mentions that liquid damage is not covered under the product warranty....

Design: Trend vs Convention Most smartphones these days come with a similar design language, but that is far from the truth in the case of the Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge and the OnePlus Nord CE 2. Instead, the two phones adhere to today’s design trends when it comes to the front– both have tall, thin-bezel-ed displays with comparatively thicker chins below them, while a punch hole notch sits on the top housing the camera....

Looks like nothing in the market Just like the Reno 7 Pro, the Oppo F21 Pro grabs attention with its appearance. But with sass rather than class. We got the Sunset Orange variant (there is also Cosmic Black), and well, in terms of color, there is nothing like this out there. The back is a very mango-ish yellow-orange and is what Oppo calls fiberglass leather. It looks very smooth from a distance but actually has a slightly leather-like texture when you touch it....

Looks: If they matter, they are not Note-able The Redmi Note 6 Pro has many gifts – hey, it is a best seller in its own right – but being drop-dead-gorgeous is not one of them. In fact, thanks to the efforts of the likes of Honor, Asus, and Nokia, its classic metal back and glass front are beginning to look almost like a pinstripe suit in a discotheque – quiet and classy, no doubt, but not quite in sync with the place....

Turns on the style The Reno series has been known for its snazzy design, and the Reno 6 Pro 5G carries this tradition forward. We got the Aurora edition (there is a Stellar Black one too), and we think it will catch a lot of attention, with its ability to change colors depending on the angle at which light falls on it. The back has a matte, slightly grainy-textured finish which Oppo calls the Reno Glow, and is remarkable for its ability to stay comparatively stain and smudge-free....

The Oppo R17 Pro’s biggest highlight, by far, is the rear camera arrangement. For starters, the primary 12-megapixel lens features a variable aperture between f/1.5 and f/2.4, similar to Samsung’s Galaxy S9 and Galaxy Note 9. The secondary 20-megapixel sensor is included for depth information. The third sensor, however, is a Time of Flight (TOF) 3D sensing camera which can be employed for producing high-quality 3D images. On the front, you’ll find a 25-megapixel selfie snapper as well....

Mistake not, the CaloRieco is not a machine you would tuck in your purse or your pocket, it, in fact, resembles a kitchen scale. Panasonic recently showcased the prototype of the CaloRieco. The gadget promises to measure calories along with the other Nutrition facts in just about 10 seconds. All one needs to do is open the lid and place their food inside the loading bay. Once done the user can initiate the process by using the touchscreen....

The question is: which does it better? Well, we decided to compare the portrait mode of the iPhone 7 Plus with that of Selfie Bokeh mode of the Vivo V5 Plus. We took two snaps of our Editorial Mentor at his favorite Starbucks using the iPhone 7 Plus and then asked him to do the honors himself with the Vivo V5 Plus. Of course, it was impossible for us to get exactly similar shots from the two devices but you can see the results for yourselves....

With the launch of the Snapdragon 780G 5G Mobile Platform today, the Snapdragon 700 series from Qualcomm now has about EIGHT different processors catering to different needs and it can get really confusing to decipher the differences between each of them and how they impact the end-user experience on a smartphone. The newly launched Snapdragon 780G slots right in with the Snapdragon 750G and Snapdragon 765G (at least that’s what one would imagine upon seeing the nomenclature), but Qualcomm’s numbering scheme has been all over the place....

At a Q&A session with a section of journalists in Hawaii, Miguel Nunes who heads Product Management for Qualcomm confirmed that they are at the final stages of supporting Chromium builds and we should be expecting Snapdragon-powered Chromebooks by H2 2019. He specified that the Chromebooks would initially not be based on the latest Snapdragon 8CX. “We want to start with affordable Chromebooks so that the initial products will be based on the Snapdragon 845“, says Nunes....

Let’s begin by listing out the improvements common to all the three processors, The Snapdragon 653, Snapdragon 626 and the Snapdragon 427 all the three support Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0 which is designed to charge the devices 27 percent faster than the QuickCharge 3.0 technology. As one might have observed that the dual-camera hardware is something that we only find in the flagship and premium phones, however, this will now change since all the three Qualcomm chips will extend support for the dual camera....
