According to leaks, the premiere of one of the most anticipated Samsung series is only a few days away. We are talking about the Galaxy S10 family, which will include: Samsung Galaxy S10, Samsung Galaxy S10e, and Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus. We will officially learn how they will look, how they will differ from each other, and what their specifications will be on February 20. In the meantime, below I will include leaks or rumors about them. 

Dimensions:

How do the dimensions of the new devices from the series look? The Samsung Galaxy S10 is expected to be a medium-sized variant. Its height is approximately 148.9mm, width about 70.9mm, and thickness 7.8mm. The slightly smaller device, according to the manufacturer, is expected to be the Samsung Galaxy S10e. Its dimensions are probably 142.2 x 70.4 x 7.9mm. Of this trio, the largest will definitely be the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus – as befits the “Plus” suffix. It is expected to reach a height of 157.7mm, a width of 75mm, and a thickness of 7.8mm. 

Screen:

When it comes to screen sizes, it looks as follows. The Samsung Galaxy S10e, which is the smallest version, is expected to be equipped with a flat screen with a diagonal of 5.8 inches. The fact that the screen will be flat may, in my opinion, be a good marketing move. In today’s era of curved screens, which do not appeal to everyone, it will be one of the few interesting options with a non-rounded front panel. The medium version, the Samsung Galaxy S10, is expected to have a screen with a diagonal of 6.1 inches. In this version of the device, it is expected to be rounded, just like in the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus. This variant, in turn, will boast a screen with a diagonal of 6.44 inches.

When discussing the screens of the Samsung Galaxy S10 and Plus, one cannot forget that the front camera and fingerprint reader are placed directly in the screen – which the smallest sibling lacks. It may also be interesting that devices from this family will receive Infinity Display O screens, characterized by cutouts in the screen for camera lenses. The displays are, of course, made in Super AMOLED technology. 

Components:

The Samsung Galaxy S10 is expected to be available on the market with two chipsets: Snapdragon 855 and Exynos 9820. It is also interesting that this series of devices will be the first with OneUI, which is the new overlay from the Korean manufacturer.

When it comes to memory, the Galaxy S10 Plus will be able to be equipped with up to 12 GB of RAM and 1 TB of user data storage! Other options for this version of the smartphone are also: 6 GB of RAM and 128GB of user memory, or 8GB and 512GB of memory. In the Samsung Galaxy S10, one will not find this highest version. Therefore, it follows that the Samsung Galaxy S10 will have 6GB of RAM and 128GB of memory or 8GB of RAM and 512GB of memory. The cheapest version – Samsung Galaxy S10e is expected to be equipped with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of memory for the user.

The Samsung Galaxy S10 is expected to be equipped with a battery with a capacity of 3500mAh, S10e – 3100mAh, and S10 Plus – 4000mAh. The devices are also expected to have wireless charging. 

Camera:

The S10e will probably feature a 2 x 12Mpix camera with apertures of f/1.5-f/2.4. The S10 is expected to offer us a dual sensor: 12 Mpix, f/1.5-f/2.4, and 16 Mpix, f/1.9. The S10 Plus will include the two previous sensors enhanced by a third 13 Mpix camera with f/2.4

What case for the S10 series?

Although there is still over a week until the premiere of Samsung’s new flagships, the manufacturers we work with have decided to create a wide range of cases, so you can safely use your smartphone from the very first minutes with the appropriate protection. A wide assortment of Galaxy S10 cases from brands like Spigen or Ringke will allow you to choose the best protection variant today – depending on your needs, expectations, and taste. Both silicone transparent, hybrid, armored, slim, with military design – all this and much more can be found in the Home Screen store. Because the safety of your smartphone is our priority – from the very first seconds of its use. Here you can find a more extensive article if you have doubts about choosing a case for your new Samsung.

Price and summary:

We already know a lot about the specifications of the devices, but what about the price? How much will you have to pay for each variant? If the rumors are to be believed, for the cheapest version, the S10e, you should prepare around 3,500 PLN. So how much would you need to spend to buy the more expensive versions? They will start at probably 4,300 PLN. Will they be worth their price? We will find out soon, but I am already sure that they will find more than one buyer!

One of the most important mobile market premieres is just around the corner. The anniversary iPhone model must meet the high expectations of customers accustomed to very successful devices from competing brands.

For several months now, we have seen recurring leaks about the appearance of the new Apple device. The new model has taken a bold step towards changing its design – Apple seems to have felt the hot breath of competition on its neck.

According to leaks, the new iPhone is expected to have significantly smaller bezels around the screen than previous models, as well as several improvements that will allow the new iPhone 8 to compete with devices such as the Galaxy S8 or the upcoming Galaxy Note 8. The separate section with the Home button has been eliminated, but it is not entirely certain what will happen with the fingerprint reader – whether Apple will implement a biometric sensor built into the display, or if unlocking the new iPhone will only be possible using one’s face. The vertical arrangement of the camera lenses on the back wall looks quite fresh.

This is the first model from the Cupertino giant that will be equipped with wireless charging features and a glass casing, something that the competition has already accustomed us to.

Still relying on leaks, in addition to the aforementioned novelties, the iPhone 8 is expected to be equipped with:

• – New A11 processor
• – OLED display (not in all models)
• – New 3D facial recognition technology
• – 4 colors including one “mirror” color

In the Home Screen store, you will soon find cases for the iPhone 8, glass and other protective accessories for this model. As always, these will be top-quality products perfectly suited for the Apple smartphone.

There is little time left until the premiere of the new flagship models from the Korean manufacturer – Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus. How will they be better than their predecessors?

Appearance

Many people are disappointed by the lack of revolution, as Samsung decided to refine only a few elements, leaving the appearance almost unchanged. One of the changes is the arrangement of the cameras and the fingerprint reader – they will be arranged vertically instead of horizontally, which is expected to significantly improve the comfort of using the smartphone. As it seems, the Korean giant listens to its customers and improves what did not work in the previous revolution.

The sizes of the smartphones will be very similar or identical to the previous series, and comparing this with the very similar appearance, those who handled the S8 or S8 Plus will not have to take long to get used to the shape of the device.

Cameras

The new generation of the Galaxy series boasts an extremely bright and adjustable aperture of f/2.4- f/1.5 in the 12Mpix camera. The larger model will also feature a dual camera. According to recent leaks, the new generation of Samsung’s chips will allow recording videos at up to 960 frames per second.

The front camera in both cases is a single 8Mpix camera. Interestingly, the iris scanner in the smaller version will be integrated with the camera, while in the S9 Plus, the scanner and the camera will be separate sections.

Technical Specifications

Samsung, whether it wants to or not, has followed in Apple’s footsteps, so we can expect that the Plus version will not only be larger but will also have better components. This includes a larger amount of RAM (6GB vs 4GB) and the use of a dual camera in the S9+.

Kudos to Samsung for not following the crowd and including the standard, normal, well-known 3.5mm Jack socket in its latest model. Additionally, it supports SD cards and has a dust and water-resistant IP68 casing.

It seems that the Samsung Galaxy S9 has no more secrets for us. We are left waiting for the official presentation, which is set to take place at this year’s MWC in Barcelona on February 25. Accessories and cases for the Galaxy S9 will also appear with us soon, so we invite you to follow us on social media and subscribe to our newsletter!

Yesterday, we had the opportunity to watch the official premiere of OnePlus 6. A device that will be quite a competition for more “prestigious” brands, such as Samsung, Huawei, or Apple. Below you will find the most important information related to the mentioned device.

For a long time, we could find at least a dozen rumors and leaks about OnePlus 6 on the internet. Today we already know all the information regarding the mentioned smartphone. Let’s start with the specifications of the smartphone:

1. Dimensions, weight: 155.7 x 75.4 x 7.8 mm, 177g;
2. Display: 6.28” Full HD+;
3. Resolution: 2280 x 1080 pixels, 19:9, Optic Amoled;
4. Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 with Adreno 630;
5. RAM: 6 or 8 GB;
6. System: Android 8.1 Oreo with OxygenOS overlay;
7. Internal storage: 64, 128, or 256 GB (no microSD card slot);
8. Camera: 16 MP, f/1.7, Sony IMX 519, 1.22µm, OIS + 20 MP, f/1.7, Sony IMX 376K;
9. Battery: 3300 mAh, support for fast charging (Dash Charge);
10. Additional information: NFC, gyroscope, fingerprint reader, WiFi 802.11 a/b/d/n/ac, USB-C 2.0, DUAL SIM, Bluetooth 5.0, 3.5 mm jack, and face recognition

Build, screen, and components – the most important information

In previous generations, glass was hard to find in the finish of OnePlus smartphones. This time, the manufacturer decided to change its approach, resulting in a solid combination of a glass body, metal frame, and a good front display. The head of the mentioned company emphasizes that the device can boast water resistance (although it officially does not meet the iPXX standard).

The smartphone features a 6.28-inch Optic AMOLED display. It offers a 19:9 aspect ratio (thanks to its resolution) and an iPhone X-like notch at the top of the screen (with the option to hide it). We also find a system similar to Face ID, allowing us to unlock our device using our face. It’s a pity that the manufacturer did not opt for an even higher resolution.

OnePlus 6 is powered by one of the strongest chipsets on the market – Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. The processor consists of 8 Kryo 385 cores and an Adreno 630 graphics unit. The entire setup is manufactured using a 10nm technology process. Adding to this 6 or 8 GB of RAM makes it a true command center at our fingertips.

Camera as a strong point

The manufacturer decided to install a dual camera on the back of the device. 16 and 20 MP with optical image stabilization should do the trick. Additionally, Sony sensors were implemented here: IMX 519 and IMX 367K. It should be noted that the principle of operation of the lenses known from OnePlus 5T has been retained. Namely, the 20-megapixel unit is responsible for night photos. The process involves gathering light from two adjacent pixels, resulting in better photos in difficult lighting conditions. In the photography options, we also find a portrait mode, which gained popularity thanks to Apple products.

The new smartphone is not just about the camera and the quality of photos taken. Additional options related to video recording also matter. Thus, we will be able to use 60-second video materials. All to be able to choose the best moment and create so-called slow-motion. Such materials will be recorded in Full HD resolution at 240 fps or HD at 480 fps. The cherry on top will be the ability to record video 4K at 60 fps.

How much will all this cost us?

The device will be available for purchase in the following configurations:

1. 6 GB RAM, 64 GB internal storage, color: Mirror Black – 519 euros (approximately 2200-2300 PLN);
2. 8 GB RAM, 128 GB internal storage, color: Mirror Black, Midnight Black – 569 euros (approximately 2450-2600 PLN);
3. 8 GB RAM, 256 GB internal storage, color: Midnight Black – 619 euros (approximately 2650-2800 PLN)

As you can see, these prices are much lower than those of the main competitors, and the device does not fall behind them at all. Pre-order for the device should start on May 22. Someone may have already noticed that the entire lineup lacks a white color version. Unfortunately, purchasing the OnePlus 6 in this color will only be possible from June 5.

Soon, many accessory models for OnePlus 6 will be available in our offer!

The G7 ThinQ model has been priced at 3499 PLN in Poland. The new LG will be available for pre-order from June 1 to June 15, but as part of it, we can receive some quite interesting “gadgets,” which in initial leaks were said to be only additions for the Korean market. You probably already guess what this is about.

A TV for a smartphone?

By purchasing the LG G7 ThinQ in pre-order from the Play network, you can get an LG 43UK6300 TV (which is currently valued at around 2 thousand zlotys in stores), of course with the ThinQ model designation, which is a distinguishing feature of the new products from the Korean giant that have artificial intelligence – they adapt to user behavior and recognize their speech.

What about other major operators? Unfortunately, we cannot count on such a large “gift,” but a nice addition could be a 24-inch computer monitor (which can also function as a TV) LG 24MT49VF.

The pre-order in retail stores looks different, and a Sphero BB 9E robot will be added to the new purchase – the perfect solution for Star Wars fans.

However, for everyone who decides to purchase the LG G7 ThinQ on the Polish market, the manufacturer offers a one-year warranty on the display, which also entitles to a one-time replacement if we damage it ourselves.

LG G7 ThinQ Specifications

Many data from the leaks have been confirmed, namely a 6.1-inch very bright screen with QHD+ resolution, of course, with a notch, glass back, wireless charging, Snapdragon 845 – in short, everything a flagship model should have. Unfortunately, there is a lack of a stronger battery, but here we see stagnation among most manufacturers – the new LG offers only 3000mAh.

Summary

It can be confidently stated that LG has greatly shocked with its basic addition to the smartphone in pre-order, but this was to be expected in the era of adding, for example, a console in the case of Sony. In terms of size and price, the Koreans will be hard to beat, but we are very curious about what other manufacturers will offer in the future.

Although we do not offer cases for monitors or TVs, for the LG G7 ThinQ we can propose a wide range of cases and screen protection accessories. Take a look around and find the perfect solution for yourself and, perhaps, your new LG G7 ThinQ.
