| No, the Huawei P40 won't come with graphene battery, officials confirm Posted: 24 Dec 2019 03:30 AM PST  One of the most interesting news from yesterday is that Huawei's official France account teased the upcoming P40 Pro with a graphene battery and shortly after, a wave of skeptics came in to comment that this is pretty much impossible at the current state of technology. And they were right. Huawei France's Twitter account has since deleted the post and made an official statement that this is just a rumor and not an official confirmation. In fact, the officials said that the technology is still far from being ready for implementation so we shouldn't hold our breath. Well, it was... |

| Huawei France tweets that P40 will use graphene battery, skepticism ensues Posted: 23 Dec 2019 10:04 PM PST  A couple of days ago, Huawei's official France handle tweeted about the unreleased Huawei P40. The tweet explicitly claimed that Huawei's next flagship, the P40, will come with a next-generation graphene battery. Along with the tweet was a fan-made concept render.

| Android 10 update with One UI 2.0 now hitting unlocked Samsung Galaxy S10 models in the US Posted: 23 Dec 2019 07:00 PM PST  In a rare but very welcome occurrence, Samsung has now started sending out the final stable update to One UI 2.0 based on Android 10 to the unlocked models of the Galaxy S10 family in the US. The update for carrier versions went out only a week ago, so this marks the first time in ages when Samsung isn't acting like it's forgotten all about the existence of the unlocked units. It's great to see the company change its stance, and try to appease those select few who actually buy unlocked in the States. With previous models and big Android updates, sometimes months-long delays were to be had... |
| Xiaomi's 108 MP Mi Note 10 Pro reaches Spain, yours for €559.99 Posted: 23 Dec 2019 04:00 PM PST  Xiaomi's Mi Note 10 Pro has finally become available in Spain today.

Additionally, the main sensor has an 8P lens compared to 7P. Yes, that is literally it, and no, we don't know why such a small change required it to get the word "Pro" tacked onto its name either. Anyway, if you're interested, know that its usual selling price in Spain is €649.99. However, right now you can purchase it from FNAC for just €559.99, although this may be... |
