| Sony S20A with 5.45" screen certified by TENAA, but it's not a Compact Posted: 02 Mar 2020 06:39 AM PST  Sony is working on a strange phone - it has a 5.45" display, so you may think that it's a new Compact version. But the dimensions of the phone don't match up with that. The Sony "S20A" measures 150.8 x 72.8 x 12.5mm, according to TENAA. For comparison, the Xperia XZ2 Compact (5" 16:9 screen) is much smaller at 135 x 65 x 12.1. A taller aspect ratio on the new model could account for the extra height, but the width suggests very thick bezels - the bezels of a low-cost phone. Interestingly, the battery capacity is 4,000mAh, which is fairly large by Xperia standards. The XZ Compact has a... |

Lowering the internal temperature allows hardware to perform even better and that's why the phone reached record-breaking score on AnTuTu - over 633,000. Ni Fei, CEO of nubia,... |
| Huawei P40 early prototype hands-on reveals design Posted: 02 Mar 2020 04:59 AM PST  As Huawei confirmed its plans to introduce the P40 flagship series on March 26, DigitalTrends managed to get a hold of a prototype unit of the P40 giving us our first look at the next-gen Huawei flagship.
