Honor Magic 2 3D coming soon with a structured light 3D scanner

The Honor Magic 2 3D will add a structured light 3D scanner to the formula of the original Honor Magic 2, which already had two 2MP depth sensors on the front in addition to the 16MP selfie camera.

Samsung Galaxy S10+ review

Punch out a hole in the display, add an extra camera on the back, do the mandatory yearly updates to the internals and you'd end up with a Samsung Galaxy S10+ - that is, if you started out with an S9+ if it wasn't obvious. Only that would be oversimplifying it, and we'd rather explore the nuances. from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2Sw7vxK via

Samsung Galaxy S10+ teardown reveals tiny under-display fingerprint scanner

We finally get to see the insides of the Samsung Galaxy S10+. And on the contrary to most new phones, this one has a lot to show. The teardown begins the usual way with some pre-heating and prying up. The good news is that the screen and the back plate both attach to the mid-frame so you can easily change the screen without the need of a full disassembly. That's at least what we could gather from the first video. With the disassembly process advancing, more cool things start to pop up.

Possible Huawei P30 Pro camera samples posted by company's product manager

Bruce Lee - no, not the actor, the Product Manager at Huawei - posted four photos of a new 5G cell tower near the MWC venue in Barcelona. The cell tower was set up by Huawei and Vodafone, but the photos are much more interesting than the tower itself. There's speculation that the photos were taken with a Huawei P30 Pro. The vanilla Huawei P30 is expected to get the triple camera of the Mate 20 Pro while the P30 Pro should have a new quad camera.

The name of the new USB standard changes to USB 3.2 Gen 2x2

The tech industry has a chronic problem when it comes to naming things - it goes from confusing to outright . This brings us to USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. The standard was announced in 2017 but this change in branding is a new plot twist. USB 3.1 is no more, just like USB 3.0 doesn't exist. Instead there's USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5Gbps, formerly USB 3.0), USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps, USB 3.1 originally) and USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. So not only is the USB-IF erasing the names of the old standards from existence, it can't even count up to 3 without getting weird. Okay, in some ways it makes sense.
