Samsung is working on the successors to its mid-range Galaxy J series. The company already announced the Galaxy J3 (2017) in the US and the Galaxy J5 (2017), Galaxy J7(2017) are yet to be announced. Rather than the plastic body seen on Galaxy J (2016) phones, this year's Galaxy J phones will come with metal body. Reliable tipster, Roland Quandt also leaked the renders of the devices and they look similar to each other with new eyecatchy design. The Galaxy J5 (2017) and Galaxy J7 (2017) will be released in three colour options- blue, black, glod, and rose gold. And they will be separated by the screen size and battery capacity.
The Galaxy J5 (2017) will flaunt a 5.2-inch Full HD display, while the J7 will sport a 5.5-inch Full HD display. The J5 will get a smaller battery of 3000mAh and the J7 will carry a massive 3600mAh battery on board. Both the devices will be powered by the 1.6GHz octa-core Exynos 7870 SoC and they adore 13MP cameras on both front and back. The devices will also feature fingerprint scanner this time around. Launch date of the phones is yet to be revealed by the company.
With Super-slim bezels, tall screen, infinity display and speedy new Snapdragon 835 (or Exynos 9) processor, the Samsung Galaxy S8 comes with a ton of biometric authentication options. You get a fingerprint reader, iris recognition, and face recognition that lets you unlock the phone. According to the latest reports, it looks like that Samsung's "Ultra-Secure" iris recognition security feature can easily be fooled. Germany's Chaos Computer Club (CCC), a venerable group of white-hat hackers, claims to have figured out a relatively straightforward way to trick the iris-recognition system on Samsung's flagship Galaxy S8 smartphone.
According to CCC: The easiest way for a thief to capture iris pictures is with a digital camera in night-shot mode or the infrared filter removed. In the infrared light spectrum – usually filtered in cameras – the fine, normally hard to distinguish details of the iris of dark eyes are well recognizable. Starbug was able to demonstrate that a good digital camera with 200mm-lens at a distance of up to five meters (16.4 ft.) is sufficient to capture suitably good pictures to fool iris recognition systems. Samsung claims that the Galaxy S8 and S8+ are the securest phones yet. The iris scanner and face recognition that unlocks your phone in an instant comes with defence-grade security. Here's a video of CCC tricking the Galaxy S8 with a photo:
Huawei's child brand, Honor has announced a new smartphone in its homeland China. Called Honor 6A, the smartphone packs in decent specifications and rivals the counterpart Xiaomi's Redmi series of phones in the country. The Honor 6A will be sold in two variants- 2GB+16GB, 3GB+32GB. The base variant will be available for CNY 800 ($115), whereas the bigger variant will be sold for CNY 1000 ($145). Preorders for the phone will begin on June 1. The Honor 6A packs decent specifications on paper. The handset has a 5-inch HD display and is fuelled with a Snapdragon 430 SoC. A 13MP camera sensor can be seen at the back along with a 5MP front-facing camera. The device boots Android 7.0 Nougat on top of EMUI 5.0. The phone boasts of a metal body and has a fingerprint sensor located below the rear camera module. The Honor 6A is armed with a 3020mAh battery.
The OnePlus 5 is one of the most anticipated devices of 2017 and is expected to fill the success of OnePlus 3 and 3T. Expected to come with mouth watering specifications, the phone will give a tough competition to Samsung Galaxy S8 series and Xiaomi Mi 6. It's confusing and irritating. That's all we can say about the leaks about OnePlus 5. We have already seen multiple leaked images of the OnePlus 5 and all of them looks completely different from each other. However, it seems that OnePlus has officially confirmed the final leaked design of their upcoming flagship. In this facebook post (which was clearly not meant to have gone out yet), OnePlus Denmark officially shares the previously leaked OnePlus 5's prototype link.
What else can we glean from this OnePlus's social media rep's mistake? Well, as you can see in the image (leaked earlier by AndroidAuthority), the OnePlus 5 Prototype is having vertically placed dual camera setup and OnePlus branding on the back. Recently, we got an official news from OnePlus about the OnePlus 5. A staff member of OnePlus in OnePlus forums has said that the OnePlus 5's camera will be built in collaboration with the camera authority-DxO. OnePlus is all set to launch the device this summer. Thoughts?
A leaked product roadmap of Motorola some days ago revealed that Motorola is working on two relatively new smartphones- Moto G5s and Moto G5s Plus. At first, it seemed like a fake news because Motorola recently announced the Moto G5 and G5 Plus and why did it want to launch successors in such a short time. But this is Motorola under Lenovo, not Google. The first press renders of the Moto G5s are out, and the device looks similar to the original Moto G5 from the front. From the rear though, the device resembles the Motorola Moto M which was released last year. The Moto dimple is coming back and is placed below the rear camera module. The smartphone will be entirely made of metal, unlike the plastic edges are seen on the Moto G5. The Moto G5s will boast a 5.2-inch Full HD display, while the Moto G5s Plus will have a 5.5-inch display with dual cameras at the back. SOURCE
