Yes, the camera on the Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL is good,– but is it that good? In fact, the camera in the Pixel 3 and 3 XL uses a 1/2.55-inch sensor that measures just 5.76 x 4.29mm. FocusingThe Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL use a dual-pixel phase-detection focusing system, and we found focusing to be generally very good. VerdictThe Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL do a lot of things very well. And if the camera on the Google Pixel 3 or Pixel 3 XL is likely to be your only camera, we reckon you’ll be excit

The fact that Samsung is working on an in-screen fingerprint reader for the Galaxy S10 has been well documented, but it’s clear now that Samsung has a gamut of in-screen features in the works. Of course, the long-rumored in-screen fingerprint reader is shown clearly on the presentation slide, but so are three other exciting developments. Finally, the slide reveals plans for sound on display technology, or SoD, as in front-facing speakers and earphones beneath the display. Now, it’s well known th

The difference between the way TVs render motion and how Steam VR’s Motion Smoothing works is that the latter only turns on when Steam notices a drop in frames – rather than processing every frame. The hitch here is that motion smoothing will only work on Windows 10 PCs (sorry Linux users!) and only with the HTC Vive and HTC Vive Pro – not any of the other Windows 10 VR headsets. For VR to succeed we need both bigger and better libraries of games as well as the ability to run VR headsets on near

The next OnePlus launch date has officially been moved to October 29, a day earlier than the company originally announced, proving it’s hard to compete with Apple. The OnePlus 6T launch event was scheduled for October 30 at 11am ET in New York until Apple pounced on that same date in the same city an hour earlier at 10am. Instead of conflicting with the expected iPad Pro 2018 launch event, OnePlus changed their date to 24 hours earlier, at 11am on October 29. “After deep reflection, we have deci

If you’re a fan of AV, the name What Hi-Fi? The culmination of a year’s worth of reviews happens at the brand’s annual What Hi-Fi? For the 2018 awards, 102 products walked away with a trophy – including some of our favorite products, like the Sony HT-ST5000 Soundbar and the Beyerdynamic Amiron – with top accolades going to the LG C8 OLED for Best 55-inch TV and 65-inch TV under £2,500 and the Sony WH-1000XM3 for Best Wireless Headphones over £300. While the awards are generally separated by pric

Like the rule of thirds, this is a rule to shoot by whether you use a smartphone or DSLR. Exposure, white balance, ISO sensitivity and manual focus are what you usually get. Firstly, using manual focus lets you get as up-close-and-personal with your subject as the lens allows. Smartphone autofocus often struggles with close-up objects, so manual focusing gives you the best possible chance at capturing macro-style images. While some pro photographers deliberately use high ISO for a grainy look, p

First rumored back in July, Huawei has taken its first public step towards its foldable phone future, with company CEO Richard Yu confirming development of a bendy handset at its Mate 20 launch event this week, as reported by Digital Trends. “We are working on foldable phones,” Yu stated to select international media attending the event. “Foldable 5G phones.”Huawei has spoken about the potential of foldable handsets and its plans for 5G phones in the past, however, this is first time the Chinese

Soon, when you use Uber to select a destination, the app will present you with contextual suggestions to help you pick the best way to travel. If you’re the only one travelling and the trip looks relatively short, it may show you the location of the nearest scooter or JUMP e-bike alongside its various car options. Alternatively, if you’re headed to the airport with friends in tow, it might offer SUVs and Uber XL options first. According to TechCrunch, the updated app will also factor in how you’

Following the launch of Canon’s first full-frame mirrorless camera, the EOS R, in September, we expect Canon’s range of full-frame mirrorless cameras to grow fairly quickly in the next year. CanonRumors.com is reporting that it’s been told we’re likely to see two new EOS R series bodies in 2019. The first will drop in below the current EOS R, offering a more affordable route into Canon’s new full-frame mirrorless system. More likely we’ll see something like a 24MP full-frame sensor in an entry-l

We’re expecting lots from the iPad Pro 2018, but one thing we wouldn’t have expected is for Apple to include a USB-C port on the slate, given that it’s a fan of proprietary charging ports. However, it’s looking increasingly likely that a USB-C port will indeed be present, with the latest evidence coming from various accessory makers. Japanese technology news website Macotakara spoke to a range of accessory makers at the Global Sources Mobile Electronics trade show in Hong Kong, and was told the

Following an unauthorized leak, Radionomy has made the long-awaited Winamp 5.8 available to download ahead of schedule. Earlier this week, Radionomy revealed that it would be re-launching the venerable media player in 2019 for both desktop and mobile. It also announced a forthcoming minor update to the existing player, which was still available to download, but had been untouched since 2014. To avoid eager Winamp fans downloading an illegitimate copy that might contain malicious software, the de

Sony has announced its upcoming zombie survival horror Days Gone has been delayed until April 2019. Days Gone was originally due to release on February 22 2019 ( the same day as Crackdown 3 and Anthem). However, in a recent blog post, Sony revealed it has pushed the release date back from the “crowded February timeframe” to April 26, 2019 to “further polish” the title. Sony confirmed the release Days Gone at E3 2018. Contending with a high-profile title such as Anthem was always going to be diff

Spotify’s Premium app hasn’t seen too much of a shake-up in the last few years, but the music streaming platform has announced the roll-out of a streamlined overhaul to its otherwise-familiar interface. Spotify says the refresh is intended to “give subscribers an even more personal and intuitive experience”. In essence, it does this by removing two of the five menu tabs that appear at the bottom of the app – Browse and Radio. The remaining tabs (Home, Search and Library) still play the same role

The successor to Samsung’s take on the Windows tablet is here: the Samsung Galaxy Book 2, and it’s got a new friend under the hood – a Qualcomm processor. Of course, the Galaxy Book 2’s marquee feature is LTE connectivity through the modem within Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 850 system on a chip, or SoC. Galaxy Book 2 swims with the tidePrevious iterations of the Galaxy Book, or Samsung Windows tablets like it, went against the trend of kickstand designs in lieu of ones that rely more on the keyboard f

Apple is officially holding its next launch event in New York City on October 30, and we fully expect the iPad Pro 2018 and new MacBooks to launch then. The Apple launch event will take place that Tuesday at 10:00am EDT. We suspect, but haven’t been able to confirm yet, that this Apple event will be live streamed. Looks like a large variety of designs going out for these invites for the (likely) iPad Pro launch (thanks to @stuartmiles @caro_milanesi @tldtoday @MKBHD @panzer for alternatives…)
