OPPO Reno gets two new colors, OPPO Reno Z revealed

-

Oppo, the leading brand of BBK Electronics, has been pumping out very, very interesting devices as of recently. Last year’s Oppo Find X was the first smartphone to kickstart the trend of moving cameras without notches, a trend that has since been joined by major players such as Xiaomi, OnePlus, and even Samsung. And this year’s Oppo Reno looks into continuing this trend by introducing an even stranger approach. It has a pop-up camera in a similar fashion to the OnePlus 7 Pro and the Xiaomi Redmi K20, but it employs a swivel “shark fin” mechanism instead, and it looks more aesthetically pleasing.

Both the Oppo Reno and the Oppo Reno 10x Zoom, their higher-end model, are testaments to Oppo’s design quality, and while they’re already pretty appealing design-wise, the phone is now becoming available in 2 new color options, including a new Coral option that pretty much looks like orange and an “Inspiration” edition, which we’re guessing will serve more like a “limited” or “special” edition than anything else, with dark blue and purple hues and plenty of drawings and golden details. Even the box and paperwork is adorned in these details, and it also includes a series of special stickers too.

Additionally, a new lower-end variant of the device was also released, the Oppo Reno Z. It drops most of the stuff that made the Oppo Reno appealing in the first place: the swivel camera is replaced for a regular teardrop notch, and the Snapdragon 710 in the regular Oppo Reno is replaced for a MediaTek Helio P90 chipset. The storage/RAM options also seem awkward: there is a 6GB RAM version with 256 GB of storage, but the 8GB RAM model actually downgrades the storage down to 128GB. Odd decision, to say the least.

Other specs include a 4,035 mAh battery, 20W VOOC 3.0 charging, and Android Pie based ColorOS 6. The Reno Z will be available in Night Black, Star Purple, Bead White, Coral Orange colors. Sales begin on June 6th for CNY 2,499 ($362) in China. What do you think about Oppo’s new offerings? Let us know down in the comments.

Motorola’s foldable Razr phone may be announced before year’s end

-
While Samsung’s saga with the Galaxy Fold appears to finally be coming to an end , there are other foldables destined to be released soon. The Huawei Mate X is the other big name, but it has been delayed a couple of times as well. The other foldable device that we’ve heard about a few times is the rumored Motorola Razr reboot, and a new report claims an announcement is coming this year still. Earlier this year, reports suggested Motorola would launch its foldable phone this summer. That time has come and gone without a peep from Motorola, but a new report claims it’s still coming this year. This information comes from a person close to the company speaking to CNET . It’s unlikely that the device will actually be sold this year, but we should at least see the device before 2020. Motorola has already confirmed that they are working on a foldable smartphone. The “Razr” name was also confirmed by a Bluetooth certification. We exclusively reported on the specifications of the device ,...

Behind Dynamic System Updates in Android Q: How Google is using Project Treble to improve future Android releases

-
Image
Alongside the release of Android 8.0 Oreo, Google unveiled Project Treble : a major rearchitecting in the way the Android OS framework and the vendor HALs and Linux kernel communicate. Treble is a major initiative designed to reduce Android platform version and security patch fragmentation , and all Android-branded devices launching with Android Pie are required to support Project Treble. OEMs and vendors test Treble compatibility by booting a Generic System Image (GSI)—a pure stock build of Android from AOSP—and passing the Vendor Test Suite (VTS) and Compatibility Test Suite-on-Generic System Image (CTS-on-GSI). The GSI has proven useful in not only allowing software engineers working for OEMs test Treble compatibility, but it has also opened the door for a large custom ROM community on XDA. For the Android Q release, Google wants to make GSIs useful for another group: app developers. Since the first stable release and source code drop of any given Android platform release usual...
