Weekly poll: is the OnePlus 7T Pro a worthwhile upgrade?

Posted: 13 Oct 2019 07:00 AM PDT

OnePlus' product strategy for 2019 left people confounded - the company continued expanding in the US, but without the affordable OnePlus 7. Then the OnePlus 7T came out as a massive upgrade, leaving buyers of the vanilla 7 a little sour. And where was the OnePlus 7T Pro, anyway? Well, here it is - the OnePlus 7T Pro was announced at a separate event, a couple of weeks after the 7T. But while the 7T was a huge leap in capabilities, the 7T Pro is incremental at best. It's almost like the company separated the events because the 7T deserved all the spotlight and the 7T Pro... Let's run...

Posted: 13 Oct 2019 03:00 AM PDT

And it's different from the HTC Vive Eye introduced a few months ago. Specs Let's start with the specs.

Weekly poll results: Surface Duo excites, but leaves many questions unanswered

Posted: 12 Oct 2019 11:00 PM PDT

The people are excited - last week's poll shows that Microsoft managed to grab your attention with the Surface Duo phone. This seems to be largely built on the strength of the Surface brand. Fans have certainly come to appreciate the quality of recent Surface tablets and laptops. And Microsoft promises to bring this same quality and brand recognition to phones. Some thought that other makers will rush to make dual screen phones ahead of Surface Duo's far-away launch late next year - but that's hardly a concern as Android-powered dual-screen phones predate the Duo by years. Build quality...

Xiaomi patents a corner selfie camera design

Posted: 12 Oct 2019 02:59 PM PDT

The full-screen front design has become pretty common lately although, most of the full-screen implementations are on high-end to mid-range devices. So what about the low-end? It appears that Xiaomi has a pretty nifty solution in the works as per the latest patent. The listing reveals a smartphone design with a front-facing camera crammed up in the upper corner of front panel. At first, the cutout seems smaller than the current punch-hole implementations and some of the pictures even suggest that cutout isn't even necessary. It may seem a bit strange at first but come to think...

Google will unveil the Pixel 4 and 4 XL on October 15, and just three days ahead of the official announcement, these fourth-gen Pixels have been listed on Best Buy Canada's website with their images and specs.

It also emphasizes that capturing pictures with the Pixel 4 is simple - just point and shoot. There's...

OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition hands-on

Posted: 12 Oct 2019 08:00 AM PDT

Last year we got a OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition and now we are getting the OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition. Boy, that's a mouthful. Since OnePlus emphasizes on speed - snappy software and super fast charging it's only natural for the company to team up once again with McLaren to design its phone. But while last year's 6T skin was more simplistic in a way and embodied the older design of McLaren P1, the 7T Pro McLaren borrows its looks from the brand new McLaren Speedtail - the company's latest supercar. The same Papaya Orange accent is here - it wraps around the phone with the...
