Samsung Galaxy Note 20’s chipset might not be that bad after all

With the Galaxy Note 20 launch just a week away, all eyes will be on what upgrades Samsung brings to the table. While the chipset might remain unchanged, there might be a silver lining. While Samsung flagship like the Note series and the S series are powered by Snapdragon chipsets in the US and European markets, they come with Exynos chipset in Asian markets such as India. It often tends to lose out on the performance front against Qualcomm Snapdragon counterparts. However, a new leak suggests some good news in this regard.

A Dubai-based start-up is revving up to launch its first electric motorcycles, designed and developed in the UAE, by the end of September. Adam Ridgway, CEO of One Moto, told TechRadar Middle East in an exclusive that he and his partner in the UK have been developing electric scooters – Electa for commuter (a vintage model of Vespa), Byka for delivery market and the Commuta (more designed for the European market).

Samsung has had to make a few tweaks to the design of the Galaxy Fold to get it ready to go on sale, and it appears Huawei has done the same with its own foldable – new photos of the Huawei Mate X suggest a number of subtle changes have been made. Chinese journalist Li Wei apparently ran into Huawei CEO Richard Yu at an airport and was able to snap a few photos of the Mate X as it looks now, having originally been unveiled at MWC 2019 in February. A fourth camera sensor has been added on the back of the phone, most likely a time-of-flight (TOF sensor for judging depth, as well as a carbon fiber effect (or possibly actual carbon fiber) around certain parts of the handset.

The Huawei Mate 30 Pro is the next major phone launch from the Chinese smartphone manufacturer after the Mate 20 Pro , with the covers expect to be lifted on the new handset (and the base Huawei Mate 30) in October.

New iPhone 11 release date, price, news and leaks

New iPhone 11 leaks point to a radically different square-shaped rear camera inside of a familiar-looking design, and an expected release date falling in September 2019. Aside from the camera bump, Apple isn't expected to offer a massive design update with the iPhone 11. Instead, this iOS 13 -toting phone is shaping up to be another incremental update, just like last year's iPhone XS was over the iPhone X . What will change? The most credible iPhone 11 rumors point to a three-camera array on the back of the phone, which likely means better photo and video quality.
