Posted: 11 Apr 2020 07:00 AM PDT

It's not April 14 yet, hence, still a few days to go until the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro become officially, official. Up until that pint in time, the leak tidal wave continues. In the words of DJ Khaled - "another one!". Hot on the heels of the live OnePlus 8 Pro photo, from just a few hours ago. Joking aside, this source does appear to offer some interesting new info. Namely alleged pricing for the pair of phones and their accessories. Operative word here being "alleged", since we really can't say if these are accurate or not. Even the source itself seems to quote price brackets, rather...

Hi Galaxy, Samsung S Voice to be discontinued on June 1

Posted: 10 Apr 2020 09:11 PM PDT

Way before Bixby debuted on the Samsung Galaxy S8, it had another voice assistant called S Voice that debuted on the Samsung Galaxy S III. It wasn't a replacement for Google's voice commands, but it was able to do things like call contacts, set reminders, launch apps, and perform Google searches. It didn't really have any personality or tell any jokes. As per a report from Sam Mobile, Samsung's S Voice will cease to operate as of June 1, 2020. If you try to use S Voice after June 1, 2020, you'll only receive a response from S Voice that says "I'm unable to process your request. Try...

Nokia 9.3 and Nokia 7.3 to launch in August or September, rumor says

Posted: 10 Apr 2020 07:12 PM PDT

The next Nokia flagship smartphone is definitely taking its sweet time arriving on the market. The would-be successor to the Nokia 9 PureView from last year has the task of actually being a success, sales-wise, unlike its predecessor. Not an easy thing to accomplish for the reborn brand, but also not hard to surpass the Nokia 9 in that regard, in pure numbers. A new rumor today claims the Nokia 9.3 will finally be announced in mid to late Q3. That means sometime in either August or September. So it looks like HMD pretty much gave up on trying to compete with the first wave of 2020...

The Sony Xperia 5 II may be the smallest 5G phone yet

Posted: 10 Apr 2020 11:01 AM PDT

There were rumors about a large Sony Xperia 5 Plus, but that never came to be. Now there's talk about a phone that is quite the opposite - an Xperia 5 II with a sub-6" screen. This phone will be released in Japan in the second half of this year, according to insider sources. The phone will have a 5.6-5.8" screen, down from the 6.1" panel on the first Xperia 5. There's a high possibility that this phone will have 5G connectivity, which will make it the first sub-6" phone to have 5G. And it will be only Sony's second 5G phone, the other being the Xperia 1 II. There's also the Xperia Pro,...

Posted: 10 Apr 2020 09:11 AM PDT

Here's something you don't see very day - a Chinese digital blogger took to the realm of Nintendo's new hit game for the Switch - Animal Crossing: New Horizons, to deliver a device leak. The phone in question is the vivo iQOO Neo3 and the new bit of info we have is an alleged unveiling date - April 23. The medium itself left us with kind of mixed feelings. But we do have to admit that all the custom tiles and signs the person spent time on creating and carefully placing all around his Animal Crossing island are kind of cute, in their own way. You can check out the video for...

Samsung Galaxy A71 gets disappointing DxOMark camera score

Posted: 10 Apr 2020 08:22 AM PDT

The Samsung Galaxy A71 was tested by DxOMark and got middling results - with an overall score of 84, it either matched or was left behind phones in its class. This phone is comparable to last year's Galaxy A50 as well as other mid-rangers such as the Moto One Zoom and Nokia 7.2 (but those two are cheaper). The main 64MP camera offers impressive dynamic range, beating the iPhone 11 and Pixel 3a, for example. Color rendering is mostly okay (though white balance tends towards blue). So, where did it all go wrong? Despite boasting a high resolution sensor, the images from the phone...
