The trend for increasing megapixel counts is set to continue for the foreseeable future, though one has to wonder how many megapixels can fit in a phone? Samsung has just announced the world’s first mobile camera sensor that goes beyond 100MP. The Samsung ISOCELL Bright HMX is a 108MP sensor for smartphones that comes as…
With the launch of HarmonyOS on the Honor Vision & Vision Pro TVs, I thought it was worth looking into the chipsets that power these devices. With 4K HDR playback available on most TVs you would expect something relatively beefy powering the underlying SmartOS. Flagship mobiles are currently using the 7nm fabrication process, but most…
With IFA approaching the rumour mill is in full force for Huawei’s up and coming flagship Mate 30 series. The time frame for the Huawei releases the past two years has been chipset announcement at IFA with the phone launch around the 16th of October. A Russian tech blog claims that Huawei Consumer Business Software…
Whenever I travel, either for press events or social, I am laden down with tech and gadgets, so a decent backpack or messenger bag is essential. I normally use cheap options from Amazon, and the Internet is full of options to suit all needs and budget. Recently Gaston Luga contacted me to check out their…
Launching a brand new SmartOS direct to mobile phones isn’t the best idea, it didn’t play out too well for Samsung Tizen, or even Microsoft. Some would say there is no room for a new smartphone OS, but in the case of Huawei, they need an alternative solution in case President Trump spits his dummy…
Huawei doesn’t do things in halves, and the announcement of the new HarmonyOS (or HongMeng depending where you live), is impressive, to say the least. Originally it was believed that the Huawei OS would be a fork of Android, but this is the first microkernel-based distributed OS for all scenarios and is more closely related…
Another new bit of Garmin Fenix 6 news, I am unsure if the flurry of leaks is a good indication of accuracy or perhaps people trying to monopolise on the recent hype about the new range. Previous leaks have included claimed product renders of the Fenix 6 and other Garmin devices, plus some reportedly real-life…
With the launch of the new Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 which features the Exynos 9110 I thought it would be worth looking how this chipset stacks up against the Qualcomm offerings. In the world of smartphone chipsets when comparing different brands, it is a small difference here and there. When the Kirin 980 was released,…
The recent launch of Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 2060 Super has been greeted with acclaim by reviewers, with the graphics card providing a boost to users looking to run demanding games on their laptop. While Nvidia’s new graphics card will improve mid- and upper-range laptops, the news will have little impact on those shopping for budget machines. Hard…

Offering a unique alternative to pop-up or rotating selfie cameras, the nubia Z20 boasts a worldclass front-facing camera and a bezel-less display. In addition to groundbreaking display technology, the nubia Z20 also features…
Following the leak of the Garmin Fenix 6 renders earlier this week, a new leak has occurred which appears to be the Fenix 6X Pro in real life. To be clear, this could be a hoax, the images show a watch with the same design as the current 5X with the first image looking almost…
Following on from the previous leaks of the Garmin Fenix 6, and the Garmin Vivoactive 4, there was also some details of a new Vivomove. The original YouTube video that detailed all the new watches was from a questionable source, and I had previously advised taking the rumour with a big pinch of salt. Since…
