Check out this neat teaser of how the Oppo Reno is created
Oppo Reno will be announced on April 10 and it will have the 10x periscope camera, demoed at MWC 2019. The company released a promo video of how the phone was created and we can see it will indeed have huge zoom, impressive display with punchy colors, and a Snapdragon chipset. Check it out yourself. We expect to see the Oppo Reno in two versions, but there might be even three - one with 5G and Snapdragon 855, another with only the flagship Qualcomm chipset, and a third, more affordable option with Snapdragon 710. The front panel has no holes, according to the Oppo VP, so it is...
Week 12 in review: A bunch of new phones and tablets
Week 12 was filled with new announcements - we counted 9 new phones and tablets and that's not even including the birth of a whole new brand - ROKiT. Apple, Samsung, vivo, Honor, Oppo and Xiaomi were the companies that brought new devices this week and while none of those were proper flagships, some might end up to be proper best sellers, delivering impressive value for money. Meanwhile, the P30 and P30 Pro leaked heavily this week - so much so that we are left wondering if there's anything left that we don't know about the duo yet. At least it's all going to stop next week as Huawei...

After that we get two more Samsung phones from the opposite ends of the company lineup - the affordable Galaxy M30 placed just ahead of the high-flying Galaxy S10+. Two newly unveiled phones claimed places six and seven - the Xiaomi Black Shark 2 beating the Galaxy A40 as the best-placed...
Counterclockwise: the rise of OLED smartphones and why it happened
We're at a pivotal point in the history of mobile screens - OLEDs have finally matched LCDs. Looking at the user interest, OLED-packing phones have climbed up to equal LCD models and are set to surpass them very soon. Back in 2017, we looked at LCD vs. OLED for the first time, but then we simply counted the number of new models each year. This time around we took actual interest into account (by looking at interest in each phone on our site) because more popular and typically the ones that get better sales numbers. We still plotted the number of new models year (in yellow), but as you can...
Weekly poll: Are tablets still relevant?
Did you hear? Apple updated its non-pro iPads. Perhaps the more important question is "do you care?". Looking at Apple's report for Q4 2018, it shows that the iPhone brings in 8x the revenue of iPads. The tablets also lag behind the Mac sales as well as the wearable and services division. In short, the iPad is one of the least profitable Apple products. The tablet market in general has been stagnating, Apple is better off than most companies. What's the last flagship Android tablet? The Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 10.5 pops to mind, but while the high-res Super AMOLED screen is lovely, the...
