Image
Week 40 of 2018 saw two major announcements - LG brought forward its V40 ThinQ flagship, while HMD introduced the Nokia 7.1 upper-mid-ranger.

We tried the Oppo Find X Lamborghini's Super VOOC charging and it's stupid fast

Image
We've just received the ultra-premium version of the Oppo Find X - the Lamborghini Edition. It's essentially a Find X Super Flash Edition but with carbon fiber and Lamborghini-branded back, wireless headphones in the box, a few Lamborghini themes and 512GB internal memory. More importantly, both special editions boast the mobile world's fastest charging technology called SuperVOOC - a successor to the popular VOOC charging by Oppo. The SuperVOOC standard will also be present on the Oppo R17 Proonce that's released. But is the new SuperVOOC standard so great?

Weekly poll: can five cameras seduce you to buy the LG V40 ThinQ?

Image
There are no phones quite like the LG V40 ThinQ, a rugged handset with a refined taste in multimedia. It's the first phone with five cameras on board, three on the back and two on the front. More importantly, we could argue that this is the first triple camera done right. Three lenses, three fields of view - 107°, 78°, 47°. Mechanized optics for zooming never caught on in the mobile world, so this is the only way to overcome the last remaining advantage of point & shoot cameras. Huawei and Leica produced the first phone with a triple camera on its back, but we felt that the B&W sensor... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2OBr0aD via IFTTT

Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro in for review

Image
Just over half a year ago, Xiaomi released its budget big-screen solution, the Redmi Note 5 Pro and just last month, the Redmi Note 6 Pro came to be. At first glance, the newer phone appears to be a minor hardware refresh and yet, we find some big improvements in areas in which the Redmi Note 5 Pro lacked. If you don't take the notch into account, the device offers more usable screen space than the last generation and also has better screen-to-body ratio. The side bezels and the chin have shrunk, screen size has grown - from 5.99" to 6.26" and it's now taller as well - from 18:9 to... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2O9sitL via IFTTT
