Posted: 06 Jul 2019 01:00 AM PDT

Xiaomi's new so-called Mimojis launched with the Mi CC9 - an AR feature that's strikingly similar to Apple's Memoji. And Xiaomi's animated emojis are so similar to Apple's that the Chinese company accidentally put out its competitor's promo video of the Memojis on its website. However, the Apple-sourced videos have since been taken down from the Mi CC9's product page on JD.com and Suning.

Google Pixel 4 may have 16 MP telephoto lens

Posted: 05 Jul 2019 06:00 PM PDT

In an unprecedented step, last month Google wanted to stay ahead of the barrage of leaks and decided to show us the rough design of the upcoming Pixel 4's back, thus confirming the presence of dual rear cameras - a first for the line.
