The prototype showcased by OPPO doesn’t have a front camera. We expect that the final version may feature the company’s under-screen camera technology. The unannounced phone is expected to launch as OPPO Find X 2nd gen sometime in 2020.
As the company showcased it’s under-display camera tech at the MWC Shanghai 2019 event last month, we expect this launch also soon after the teaser. We possible can learn more details about this ‘Waterfall Screen’ technology at the IFA event in September.

Vivo NEX 3 may also have the same screen

Recently a leak revealed that Vivo is working on its NEX 3 smartphone. And it is also expected to come with almost 90° curved edges and over 100% screen-to-body ratio. The above image is leaked by tipster Ice Universe and you can see the front and back have edges curved at around 90°.

If the latest devices from OPPO and Vivo prototypes really be launched, it will be intriguing to see such a large screen to body ratio. However, there are still many questions that remain unanswered about the design. Will these phones feature a pop-up selfie camera like or an under-screen display? It’s also unclear how the edged screen will be utilized?

Researchers at cloud services provider Akamai discovered WireX after a hospitality company suffered from a DDoS attack involving hundreds of thousands of IP addresses. DDoS attacks work by overwhelming a target with large amounts of data from multiple IP addresses, and they’re effective at taking down websites and services that can’t cope with a data influx. Google said in a statement it’s currently in the process of removing the malicious apps from affected devices, an...

HTC’s glory days are well in the past, but the Taiwanese company is trying to stay relevant in the smartphone world. As spotted by a vigilant Twitter user, the Desire 20 Pro has been certified at NCC and Google Play Support. Previously the same phone appeared on Geekbench and in leaked schematics . The Google Play Support page mentions the same HTC 2Q9J1000 model number we saw earlier. Seeing how this is a Pro there is likely to be a vanilla version in the pipeline as well, but we haven't heard anything about it. HTC Desire 20 Pro certifications When the phones eventually arrive, they will be a follow-up of the Desire 19 lineup that brought us the Desire 19s and Desire 19+ . Both of them had unimpressive Helio chipsets (respectively P22 and P35) and the main camera was 13 MP f/1.9 with PDAF on both of them. Hopefully, this year’s Desire lineup will get in line with the current trends and introduce big batteries, fast charging, and better cameras if HTC w...
