Mwc 2018

Shortly after Sony teased it would announce a new flagship Android phone during mobile World Congress (MWC) 2018, a prototype for one of its upcoming phones leaked online. The leaked image allegedly shows the prototype of the Xperia XZ2 Compact. The image of the Xperia XZ2 Compact was shared by a user named “Grisha” on Xperia Blog. The XZ2 Compact (right) is said to just be a prototype and that the final version of the device will have thinner bezels. The handset is being shown alongside the Xperia Z5 Compact (left). Just based on the image, it appears as though the XZ2 Compact will have a thicker body. Most importantly, its back appears to have some sort of curved covering seemingly making it fit better in the palm of the user’s hand. This would fall in line with the teaser that Sony published yesterday. The upcoming Xperia XZ2 and the Xperia XZ2 Compact will be the first time in the last five years that Sony will be abandoning its “OmniBalance” design. … [Read more...] about Sony Xperia XZ2 Allegedly Leaks In Photo Ahead Of MWC 2018

Sony just dropped a mysterious teaser ahead of Mobile World Congress 2018 where it is expected to unveil a new smartphone. By the looks of things, Sony’s next Android handset could be curved or something that will be reminiscent of 2011’s Xperia arc. On Monday, Sony took to Instagram to share a promotional clip that shows curved lines hovering over a curved hand. Interestingly, the hashtag “#SONYMWC” replaces the lines when they vanish into thin air. Then, the clip ends with “26.02.18,” which stands for the first day of MWC 2018. According to Phone Arena, the promotional material is clearly hinting at a new design for Sony’s upcoming Xperia smartphone. This is good news to fans who may have switched to other brands when Sony was stuck with its relatively unchanged, chocolate bar design for its smartphones. Based on earlier leaks and reports, Sony’s new phone could debut with the moniker “Xperia XZ2.” With the release … [Read more...] about Sony Curved Smartphone Xperia XZ2 Teased Ahead Of MWC 2018

Samsung Electronics wants fans to forget everything they know about the camera experience it introduced with the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 8 flagships last year. In the trailer for the upcoming Galaxy S9, the South Korean tech giant reveals that it “rethought” the entire camera experience to make sure that the camera technology on the new flagship device will be second to none.  Apple’s biggest rival took to its official YouTube channel Thursday to publish its first official teaser trailer for the Galaxy S9. The main focus of the promo clip is the “reimagined” camera of the handset. Albeit the short length of the trailer, it managed to pack numerous scenes that hint at the upgrades and advanced features of the S9’s camera.  The first 10 seconds of the promo seems to be suggesting that what Samsung did is transform a DLSR lens into miniature version that could fit into the upcoming flagship Android phone. Then things start to take a … [Read more...] about Samsung ‘Rethought’ Galaxy S9 Camera Experience Ahead Of MWC 2018

Both the Asus ZenFone 5 and ZenFone 5 Lite have leaked online. The upcoming new Asus Android phones are expected to be announced in Barcelona during Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2018 alongside the ZenFone 5 Max. The upcoming Asus ZenFone 5 phones were leaked by Evan Blass (@evleaks) and Roland Quandt (@rquandt). Both of the new models are sporting full HD+ resolution displays with minimal bezels and dual rear-facing cameras. Although the handsets share a lot of the same specs, the two have their own distinct qualities. The Asus ZenFone 5 Lite comes with an 18:9 display that’s somewhere between 5.5 inches and 6.0 inches. The dual back cameras both have 16-megapixel sensors. The rear cameras are vertically aligned on the back with the rear-mounted fingerprint scanner right beneath them. Up front, the device has dual front-facing cameras with 20 megapixel sensors. Blass also shared images of the phone in three of its color options: midnight black, moonlight white and rouge … [Read more...] about Two Asus ZenFone 5 Android Phones Leaked Before MWC 2018 Debut

LG is expected to announce a new variant of last year’s V30 Android phone from last year during Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2018 later this month. Now it’s being rumored that the new variant will be called the LG V30s and it will arrive with a feature that’s called “LG Lens.” The LG V30s will be released to the South Korean market in March and will cost over one million won (~$918), according to ETNews. With that kind of price, it seems as though LG is trying put the V30s in the same range as the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and Apple’s iPhone X. The LG V30s is said to look the same as the original V30. However, its internal specs have been upgraded. The V30s will arrive with 256GB of storage, which is a huge increase from the original’s 64GB that’s in the V30, and doubles what’s found inside the V30 Plus. Just on storage alone, the V30s matches the limited edition V30 Signature Edition, which was sold in Korea for nearly $2,000, as … [Read more...] about LG MWC 2018: V30s With New ‘LG Lens’ Feature Rumored
