Huge leak reveals alleged specs and design of the new HTC One (M9)



It doesn’t look like we’ll have to wait until March 1 to see HTC’s upcoming flagship. A listing found on Cyberport.de, via Evleaks, shows the device in full, from specs to design—and even price! What more do you want? If this is legit, it’s pretty much everything we’ve been expecting, and the design is indeed similar to the past few iterations, not that we’re complaining.
As we’ve been hearing, the new HTC One (M9) will feature a 20-megapixel camera, marking a big jump over last year’s M8; the front-facing camera will be just 4-megapixel (Ultra pixel); not out of the ordinary for HTC. Other specs include a 2GHz Snapdragon 810 processor, 5-inch 1080p screen, 3GB of RAM, a 2900mAh battery, 32GB of expandable storage, Android 5.0 Lollipop, BoomSound speakers and HTC Sense 7.
That sounds like a pretty typical (and expected) jump from year-to-year. The design has always been one of HTC’s strong suits, and that’s the headlining feature here once again. The listing describes HTC Sense 7 as featuring more customization options—there’s a mention of HTC Sense Home and Themes, allegedly allowing users to further adjust the look and feel. BlinkFeed will supposedly feature more news sources, allowing users to continuously stay connected.
There aren’t really any big surprises here—and that’s ok. Some people might be disappointed by the fact that HTC is sticking with a 1080p screen, but I don’t think it’ll bother most folks. I imagine HTC based that decision on how the screen affects battery life, and, anyway, HTC screens are always terrific.
The listing also reveals a possible price of €749, with a mention of April 9, 2015 as the release date. If that’s the case, we’ll see an announcement on March 1, and only have to wait about a month until the device is released, which is a pretty solid turnaround.
It’s very possible the listing was put up in error, so what’s listed might not be final, or even legit; for what it’s worth, EvLeaks referred to the pictures above as “non-final.” They’re definitely different compared to an image he shared in January, which you can see below.
We’ll find out officially on March 1.

Galaxy Fold reportedly has a serious display defect that might get you a free screen replacemen

A report  early on Wednesday  said that Samsung is working on additional foldable smartphones beyond the Galaxy Fold that it unveiled a couple of weeks ago. Samsung is still trying to figure out exploring what buyers will need from a foldable handset while perfecting the components that go into such devices. And it appears that, while Samsung is ready to experiment with different Fold designs, the model that launches this spring might have a serious screen issue. As exciting as first-gen foldable phones may seem right now, we should expect some issues from these first-gen devices, especially when it comes to screen durability. Samsung did say the Galaxy Fold can fold some 200,000 times, and that may very well be the case. But nobody will like seeing creases and screen imperfections appear on the screen. This is, after all, a device that sells for around $2,000, with the screen being its most important feature. If you fold the phone ten times a day, you might see the c...

Huawei P30 release date

The Huawei P30 and Huawei P30 Pro are set to be the next flagship smartphones from the Chinese brand, which has gone from strength to strength in recent years. The Huawei P20 and Huawei P20 Pro rivaled the likes of the Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9 Plus, Pixel 3 XL and new iPhones, and the P30 duo (or potentially trio) will certainly have the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus in their sights. We say potentially trio, as Apple launched three new phones back in September, and Samsung did the same in February, so we wouldn't be surprised if Huawei followed suit with a new trio of its own under the P30 name. Huawei has even teased the arrival of the handsets, with a video posted on Twitter confirming the March 26 launch date for the "P30 series" - suggesting we'll definitely see more than one phone with the P30 name attached to it.

Samsung Galaxy S10+ review (king of andriod)

Summary The Galaxy S10+ is exactly what you’d expect out of Samsung’s tenth flagship handset. After all, the company’s been making these for a decade, and knows what works. The S10+ is a winning mix of powerful performance, long-lasting battery, stunning display and capable cameras. There’s also a welcome software overhaul and the ability to wirelessly charge compatible devices, making this a surprisingly useful handset. You’ll have to live with minor quirks like an inconsistent fingerprint sensor, lousy AR emoji and a subpar digital assistant, but none of those keep the S10+ from being an ultimately superb phone Displays One of my biggest questions going into this review was whether I'd be bothered by the "hole punch" display or if I'd get used to it over time. I go back and forth on this, and that's probably because the cutout for the camera only bothers me in specific instances. On the home screen, or in apps like Uber o...
