Apple is reportedly working on an iPhone with a triple-lens camera for 2019, according to Taiwanese publication Economic Daily News (via MacRumors). Citing industry sources, the report claims that the next iPhone will include three 12-megapixel rear lenses with 5x zoom.Having three rear cameras would be a stark contrast and upgrade from any previous generation of iPhones, including the iPhone X and iPhone 8 Plus, and it may bring a whole set of new features that weren't previously possible on a dual-camera phone. Both current iPhones come with dual 12-megapixel rear cameras, 2x optical zoom and 10x digital zoom, though the report doesn't specify whether this upcoming iPhone's supposed 5x zoom refers to optical zoom, digital zoom or a hybrid of both.Still, with the release of a 2019 iPhone so far in the future, it's best to take this report with a grain of salt. In the meantime, there are only a couple of Android phones that have more than two rear cameras -- a trend we might be … [Read more...] about Forget dual cameras, next year’s iPhone may come with three

Alleged Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Case Leaks, Hints At Dual Cameras
April 10, 2018 - Written By Kristijan Lucic The Xiaomi Mi Max 3 is one of Xiaomi’s most anticipated smartphones this year, and the phone’s alleged case has just surfaced. This seems to be a third-party case for the Xiaomi MI Max 3, and we’re looking at a regular TPU case here, which is 0.8mm thick. Based on this case, the Xiaomi Mi Max 3 will include its power / lock, volume up, and volume down buttons on the right side, while a fingerprint scanner will be placed on the back of the device. This handset will also have a vertically-aligned dual camera setup, just like the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S, Redmi Note 5 Pro, and so on, which probably means that its LED flash will be included in-between two of its rear-facing cameras.Some Xiaomi Mi Max 3 info surfaced earlier this year, and if that info is to be believed, the phone will include wireless charging, which essentially means that it probably won’t have a metal back like its predecessor. If wireless charging ends up … [Read more...] about Alleged Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Case Leaks, Hints At Dual Cameras
HTC U12 Plus Leaks In New Case Renders With Dual Cameras
April 3, 2018 - Written By Dominik Bosnjak The upcoming HTC U12 Plus leaked in half a dozen new case renders, having been depicted in a series of promotional materials for a third-party accessory sold on the Taiwanese version of Yahoo’s online marketplace. The protective case itself is listed as being meant to fit the “HTC U12” but a number of recent reports suggest such a device will never make its way to the market, with the HTC U12 Plus being expected to be the company’s only 2018 flagship. The handset in question features what appears to be a metal unibody design, suggesting the Taipei-based original equipment manufacturer will once again circumvent wireless charging in the premium segment of the market.The finish of the newly sighted HTC U12 Plus is of the metallic blue variety, with the smartphone itself featuring an elongated display panel that appears to utilize the 18:9 (2:1) aspect ratio. Unlike many upcoming notch-equipped Android phones, the HTC … [Read more...] about HTC U12 Plus Leaks In New Case Renders With Dual Cameras
LG G7 CAD-Based Render Details 6″ Bezel-Less Display and Dual Cameras, Oh, Plus a Notch
In a new video published this weekend, OnLeaks and TheMrPhone are providing us with a 360-degree look at what could be the LG G7, with a few changes I think you’re going to be interested in. For starters, let’s go ahead and talk about the notch. According to TheMrPhone, the LG G7 will sport a 6″ bezel-less display, complete with display cutout. To go along with that notch, there is a little bit of bottom chin and top forehead, meaning LG isn’t going quite iPhone X clone. Besides the notch, there is a button addition that has even TheMrPhone a little confused. Apparently, the G7 has a button where you’d typically find a Power button on the right side, as well as a separate button on the left side, directly under the volume up and down rocker. It’s the same setup as found on the Galaxy S9, but LG doesn’t have a pre-loaded digital assistant to cram down our throats, at least that we know of. It’s speculated that LG has done away with the … [Read more...] about LG G7 CAD-Based Render Details 6″ Bezel-Less Display and Dual Cameras, Oh, Plus a Notch
New LG G7 renders reveal notch, dual camera
Exactly one month ago, we showed you what were, supposedly, real life photos of a cancelled LG G7. Shortly after that, it was reported that the photos actually depicted a G7 model that LG should launch, eventually. Now, we're seeing a bunch of new renders that seemingly show the upcoming flagship smartphone from multiple angles.Revealed by Mr. Phone and @OnLeaks, these new LG G7 renders present a device that matches the one seen in the aforementioned live photos. The phone definitely has a notch and a display that occupies most of its front side (this display could measure 6 inches). The back of the LG G7 hosts a dual camera with LED flash and laser auto focus, plus a fingerprint scanner. Oh, and there's a 3.5mm headset jack at the bottom. Reportedly, the LG G7 measures roughly 153.2 x 71.9 x 8.2 mm, thus it's going to be a bit taller and thicker than last year's LG G6 (which measures 148.9 x 71.9 x 7.9 mm). The new handset should be powered by Qualcomm's high-end … [Read more...] about New LG G7 renders reveal notch, dual camera
