Specification Fabrication Process 8nm FinFET CPU 2.0GHz Dual-core (Cortex-A77) 1.8GHz Hexa-core (Cortex-A55) GPU Mali-G76 MP5 Modem 5G NR…
I have been quite critical of Oppo recently, but this is mainly due to the confusing naming scheme of their phones, rather than the actual hardware itself. With the launch of the Oppo Find X2 Pro, which has the same appearance of the Reno3 Pro 5G, Oppo have launched what could be one of the…

Numerous leaks about the up and coming Samsung Galaxy S20 series have been revealed recently. This includes the camera specification, screen sizes and Geekbench results showing the performance of the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 865. 120Hz Refresh Rate One specification that has had conflicting information leaked is the refresh rate of the display.

First of all, let’s get out of the way the increasingly confusing product line-up of the Galaxy S20 (and many flagship phones). At the moment it looks like there will be no new E variant. So the standard S20 will now be the cheapest model, and rather than adopting something as common as a Pro…
Samsung has officially announced two new devices to pad out their current product line-up, the Samsung Note 10 Lite and the Galaxy 10 Lite.

Yesterday Samsung launched a new device that we will never get to use in the UK, the Samsung W20 5G foldable phone.

Samsung’s custom CPU core arm is officially shutting down which will mean that future Samsung devices will no longer feature Exynos M performance cores, but instead employ ARM designs. The move has been rumoured for some time now. While Samsung Exynos chipsets are excellent they have generally lagged behind the Qualcomm equivalent which implements all…
The Samsung M series has been an attempt by Samsung to regain some of its dwindling Indian market share that has been eaten away by Xiaomi and most recently Realme. The Samsung Galaxy M30 was only launched in February this year, but Samsung is already updating it with an S model and it launches in the UK…
Saying the new Samsung Galaxy S11 will use the latest flagship chipset from Samsung/Qualcomm is about the most obvious piece of news reporting possible in tech. So as you probably already knew the Samsung Galaxy S11 will come in the usual two variations with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 for the US, and the flagship Exynos…
In September Samsung announced their new Exynos 9611 chipset which is aimed at the mid-end of the market and features on the Samsung Galaxy M30s, and the A50s and is expected to be in the Samsung Galaxy A51. The older Exynos 9610 which this replaces is featured on the Samsung Galaxy A50 2019 which currently…
Samsung has unexpectedly announced its new flagship earlier than their normal schedule. It was expected to launch around the same time as the Samsung Galaxy S11 which would be at the start of 2020.
