Xiaomi Mi 6X is For Real and May Release Very Soon

Image
Today, Xiaomi took to Weibo to post a teaser which seems to be for the Xiaomi  Mi 6X . Till now all the information reported has been mainly from leaks and rumours, but this poster confirms that the Mi 6X is coming and it’s coming soon. Pictured on the poster is Wu Yifan, Xiaomi’s brand ambassador. But the biggest giveaway here is the “6X” that adorns the bottom part of the poster, along with the tagline, “vision impossible/AI see you”. It is basically a hint at the presence of AI on the phone for advanced camera operations, something a lot of phone manufacturers are now implementing in their phones. Earlier this week, Xiaomi released a poster for an event that’s scheduled for the 25th of April. The Mi 6X is expected to be launched on the same day. From what we know, the Mi 6X might feature either the Qualcomm Snapdragon 626 or the MediaTek Helio P60 chipset, a dual camera setup on the back, 5.99-inch full-screen display up front with a 2160 x 1080p resolution, and a

Motorola’s upcoming G6 Plus pops up on Geekbench

Image
The Moto G6 Plus pops up on Geekbench, because why not at this point. Motorola’s mid-range game is pretty decent these days with the G-range and E-range covering plenty of ground. They’ve got their fans, though competition gets more stiff each day. So, what does Motorola have to combat all their mid-range competitors? They’ve got  more news  about the Moto G6 Plus of course. The device itself isn’t here yet since it  launches in Brazil on the 19th of this month , but at least we’ve got leaks. So, what’s up with the Moto G6 Plus and its Geekbench listing? Well, a pleasant surprise is that the device comes with a Snapdragon 660 instead of the Snapdragon 630 we expected it to come with. The downside is that the scores are still rather unsatisfactory. Instead of the 5000+ scores we expect from SD660 devices, the G6 Plus only scores 4123. It’s possible the software simply wasn’t optimized, which we honestly hope is the case. The rest of the specs seem to keep up with the

A Mysterious VIVO Phone With a 100% Screen Ratio Leaked On Photos

Image
The full-screen technology is a mainstream. But every manufacturer has its own way of making such handsets. As a result, we can find different types of full-screen. But which of them has the highest screen-over-body ratio? The iPhone X, Nubia Z17s, OnePlus 5T, OPPO R11s, Xiaomi Mi MIX 2, and other border-less smartphones provide a great viewing experience due to high screen proportion. But none of them is close to 100%. Recently, VIVO launched the  X20 Plus UD  smartphone, which is the first Android handset supporting under-display fingerprint technology. Now we see this manufacturer is going further and most likely the first 100% screen ratio smartphone will come our way from this brand as well. A few photos were leaked today in spy photos showing a mysterious smartphone has no borders, no chin, and no forehead. Well, maybe there is a chin, but it’s narrow a lot. So the sensors set can be placed there. And though there is a narrow frame around the display, its ratio is

Meizu sends frying pans and DSLR zoom lens as Meizu E3 invites

Image
If there’s one thing Meizu likes to do, it’s sending weird invites. The company has a history of sending pretty unusual stuff as an invite. Recently, the phone maker has sent stuff like old Nokia phones and a pair of sneakers much to the surprise of invitees. Well, we’ve got one more to add to it. Apparently, the company is readying to send Meizu E3 invites to guests. These invites will be on frying pans and a big DSLR-like mug. The  Meizu E3  has leaked a couple of times in the recent week. Meizu probably has good reason to paste invites on a frying pan and a DSLR-like mug. This DSLR-like mug is actually a Canon 70-200mm zoom lens which costs 5000 Yuan, say reports. Apart from the launch date details, the invites might hint at why Meizu chose these items to accompany the official teasers. The frying pan has the Meizu logo along with “E3 G” also written on it. It is being said that this might allude to a special gaming variant Meizu E3. While the “E3 P” on the m
