The camera hardware on the Huawei Mate 20 and Huawei Mate 20 Pro might not be much different to the P20 range, but it sounds like the software could be getting upgraded, as there’s evidence of an Underwater Mode, AI Zoom and more. The information was found by XDA Developers during an APK teardown of Huawei’s upcoming EMUI software, which means that Huawei is definitely working on these features, but that doesn’t guarantee that they’ll make it into the final build on the Huawei Mate 20 range.

An intrepid overclocker has pushed Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 2080 Ti for maximal graphics performance using liquid nitrogen cooling, and the end result was a raft of new 3DMark records being set. The graphics card was running alongside Intel’s Core i9-7980XE 18-core processor, overclocked up to 5.5GHz, backed with 32GB of system memory (in quad-channel mode and again overclocked, this time to 3800MHz). In the plain Timespy test, the GeForce card hit 18,892 (and 18,631 for graphics). Even without mega

Samsung has just announced its first phone with a triple-lens camera and it’s not a flagship, rather it’s the mid-range Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018). Despite the three lenses we wouldn’t expect this camera to match the snappers on the Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus or Samsung Galaxy Note 9, but its existence makes the rumors of a triple-lens Samsung Galaxy S10 that much more believable. Middle of the packElsewhere the Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) sounds like a typical but competent mid-ranger, with a 24MP front

We already know that the OnePlus 6T is set to drop the headphone jack and include an in-display fingerprint scanner, but until now we are yet to learn much about the rear camera. The render you can see below doesn’t show off much about the phone apart from how the camera setup seems to be similar to what we saw on the OnePlus 6. The first official video for the OnePlus 6T has also given us a short glimpse of the upcoming device. The lack of a third sensor doesn’t mean we won’t see camera upgrade

Anyone who’s ever taken part in an evolving online video game world knows that it can feel a bit like venturing out into the lawless frontiers of the Wild West – perfect for a game like Red Dead Redemption 2! Well, saddle up, pardners, because Rockstar has officially spilled the beans on the game’s upcoming online component, simply titled Red Dead Online. Set against the core game’s vast open world, Red Dead Online is essentially a separate product – one that promises to blend narrative, competi

Huawei’s AirPods-imitating Freebuds earbuds may launch alongside the company’s next flagship smartphone and perform a neat wireless charging trick to boot. The ‘Freebuds 2 Pro’ can be put in their pillbox case and placed on a wireless charging pad to recharge, according to a new leak. Or users can put the case can on the back of the upcoming Huawei Mate 20 or Mate 20 Pro to refill the headphones’ batteries.

What Magic Leap hasn’t been quick to do, however, was provide a concrete app or game for us to look forward to. The catalyst to that change, potentially, is Angry Birds FPS: First-Person Slingshot, a new game from Rovio and Magic Leap that will leverage the firm’s augmented reality (AR) technology. The game, which debuted at a press event in San Francisco, brings the towering strongholds of Angry Birds to your living room and uses the Magic Leap’s controller to fling an avian arsenal at the dast

AMD has released two new Ryzen processors designed for high-end laptops with lots of room for more power, especially when it comes thermal capacity. These processors begin a new H Series line of parts for AMD, much similar to Intel’s own H Series of mobile chips. These two new processors, known as the AMD Ryzen 5 2600H and Ryzen 7 2800H, are both still quad-core chips with base clock speeds and thermal design power (TDP) brought way up in comparison to their U Series predecessors. One thing we d

The just-revealed iPhone XS might look just like last year’s iPhone X , but it turns out they’re not exactly the same. The new smartphone’s camera housing is ever-so-slightly bigger, which means it might not fit if placed in a case made snugly for the iPhone X dimensions. The longer side of the camera housing on the iPhone X is 24.13mm, while the new iPhone XS was enlarged to 25.50mm (the shorter “width” was only enlarged by .01mm), Macotakara found. That’s barely enough to see with the naked ey

Those lucky enough to have pre-ordered the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti or RTX 2080 back when they were announced should have received their graphics card (s) by now. We see a similar situation in Middle Earth: Shadow of War: the RTX 2080 Ti produces an average UHD frame rate of 74 fps compared to the Titan Xp’s 56 fps – a gain of 32%! “In many cases, the GeForce RTX 2080 is so powerful that the CPU is the bottleneck, according to Nvidia. “To prevent this from occurring, we highly recommend you co

Updated: We’ve fully benchmarked and tested the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and can finally deliver our verdict on this ultimate graphics card for gamers. Price and availabilityThe Founders Edition version of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Ti rings up for an almost obscene $1,199 (£1,099, AU$1,899). You can see our Battlefield V with Nvidia RTX gameplay above (we shared it with PC Gamer), which was captured through the Nvidia GeForce Experience app. Surprisingly, to reach this level of performance,

Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds – or PUBG as you probably know it – looks like it’s headed to Playstation 4 consoles. PUBG has also been available on iOS and Android mobile for well over a year now. But a possibly preemptive post on the Korean game rating board from mid-September seems to show a version of PUBG classified for release on PS4. Not that PUBG is struggling: it remains very popular worldwide, even though it doesn’t employ the free-to-play model of its direct competition. Still, in a t

Clearly, the diverse open-world of Night City has fans clamoring for all the dystopia and body modification promised by the cyberpunk genre. Luckily, the cyberpunk genre is filled to the brim with excellent titles to play in the meantime. ObserverBlade Runner laid much of the foundation for what the cyberpunk genre would become, so it’s only fitting that Observer takes most of its cues from the iconic 1982 film. The influence of System Shock 2 reaches beyond the cyberpunk genre. Technobabylon201

Microsoft has deployed a new preview version of Windows 10, and this latest build could be the release candidate of the OS, at least going by the fact that no new features are introduced whatsoever, along with some slight changes in the phrasing of the related blog post. Yes, this could potentially mean nothing much, but it could just indicate that this is effectively the RTM or final release build in all but name. In other words, the work on the big update is done, except for a few last-minute

It’s widely rumored that Samsung will stick three rear cameras on at least one version of the Samsung Galaxy S10, but before that we could see a Samsung phone with four rear cameras. There’s a lot of evidence for that, starting with an October 11 event that Samsung Mobile teased on Twitter with the text “4x fun”, but we now know that the phone in question might be the Samsung Galaxy A9 Star Pro. The Samsung Galaxy A9 Star Pro is also said to have a dedicated Bixby button and a 3.5mm headphone ja
