The OnePlus 8T will be taller, wider than the OnePlus 8 despite having the same screen size

The OnePlus 8T will have a 6.55” display – the same size as its non-T predecessor. However, it seems that the phone itself will be larger than before. @OnLeaks posted the dimensions of the device – 162.8 x 75.5 x 8.4 mm, going up to 9.3 mm for the camera hump. Previously, the leakster shared renders of the 8T. We’ve prepared a simple schematic to show the relative sizes of the T-phone and the original 8-series (including the thickness - the 8T is almost as thick as the 8 Pro). Note that this year there will be no T Pro model, instead the 8T is getting multiple upgrades like 120 Hz...

EU's Digital Service Act will force makers to allow you to uninstall bloatware

The European Union is expected to approve a new so-called Digital Service Act, which among other things, aims to give you more control of what apps you have on your phone. While the pre-loaded bloatware isn't as bad in Europe as in some other parts of the world it can still be annoying. So the EU will force makers to making it possible to uninstall all of the unwanted apps. Currently some of the apps can't be removed unless you flash a different ROM. Additionally, the act targets big companies like Google and Apple making sure that they use the collected data only for advertising...

Oppo A93 goes official with 6.43” AMOLED and Helio P95

While Oppo was supposed to introduce its A93 on October 6 but it jumped the gun and unveiled the phone early in Vietnam. Looks alone will tell you it shares plenty of similarities with the Oppo F17 Pro and Reno4 Lite and a quick dive through the specs reveals the only change is the downgraded 18W charging. The Oppo A93 is built around a 6.43-inch AMOLED with a pill-shaped cutout for the 16MP selfie cam and 2MP depth module. There’s also a built-in fingerprint scanner. Around the back, we have a 48MP primary shooter alongside an 8MP ultrawide snapper. The remaining two are a pair of...

Soli Radar and Motion Sense will make a comeback despite missing on Pixel 5

The Pixel 4 and 4 XL launched by Google last year came with the Soli Radar that enabled Motion Sense gestures. However, none of this year's Pixels have them, suggesting that the company may have abandoned the project. That's not the case, according to Google's SVP of Hardware Rick Osterloh, who says Soli Radar and Motion Sense will return in the future. In a statement to The Verge, Osterloh said Soli Radar and Motion Sense gestures will be used in the future, and they are missing from the 2020 Pixels because they were too expensive for the phones Google wanted to build. While...

Google expects to sell only 800,000 Pixel 5 units this year

Yesterday Google introduced two new phones, Pixel 5 and Pixel 4a 5G, both falling short of the term “true flagship” with the lack of top-notch chipset, telephoto camera and an UD fingerprint scanner. Apparently, the Mountain View company doesn't expect the phones to be particularly hot with customers as indicated by the conservative orders placed with suppliers - 800,000 Pixel 5 units by the end of the year, as reported by Nikkei Asia. The total production for the 2020 Google lineup across its three members - the Pixel 5, Pixel 4a 5G, and the Pixel 4a - will be 3 million units....

Google Pixel 4a will be released in India on October 17

Yesterday Google announced the Pixel 4a 5G and Pixel 5, but neither of them is coming to India for the time being.
