Honor 20 Series owners get exclusive Fortnite Wonder Skin

-

Despite the stiff competition from PUBG Mobile and other third person shooters that have cropped up in the space, Fortnite continues to command a good share of the gamerbase. And now, Epic Games has teamed up with HONOR once again to give users of the Honor 20 series another exclusive skin called “Wonder”.

Epic Games had previously partnered with Honor to bring the “Guard” skin exclusively to Honor View20 users. Now, Epic Games is offering players who missed out then with a similar chance, as the new “Wonder” skin is exclusively made available to Honor 20 Series users, i.e. for the Honor 20 and the Honor 20 Pro. Here is a look at the upcoming skin, courtesy of YouTuber TheRelaxingEnd and his extensive coverage of the same.

Fortnite on the Honor 20 Series, and gaming in general, should be a smooth sailing experience on the devices. The HiSilicon Kirin 980 powers both the Honor 20 and the Honor 20 Pro, and the flagship SoC from Huawei packs in more than enough power to ensure that you face no hiccups in your gameplay. We’ve pushed the Kirin 980 to the limits in our gaming review of the Honor View20, and we walked away pleasantly impressed with its overall gaming performance.

Such an opinion was formed despite the View20 lacking a dedicated gaming mode at that time. So the inclusion of GPU Turbo 3.0 on the Honor 20 Series should get you some more benefits. GPU Turbo 3.0 claims to offer faster touch response, lower energy consumption by the SoC, lower frame drops and consequently, a higher average frame rate. As per AnandTech’s observations, Huawei uses TensorFlow neural network models that are pre-trained by the company on a title-by-title basis, allowing the neural network to build its own internal model of how the game runs and how much power and performance it requires. The effect of GPU Turbo is better observed on Huawei and Honor smartphones that sport a neural processing unit (NPU), which thankfully is present on the Kirin 980 present in the Honor 20 Series. The NPU speeds up the “inferencing”, i.e. the execution of the models created by the neural networks, allowing very fast adjustment of DVFS values to optimize power consumption without hampering the gaming experience, as well as predicting the requirements of the next frame.

With the Kirin 980 and GPU Turbo 3.0, the Honor 20 should have no issues going toe-to-toe with other dedicated gaming smartphones as far as the gaming experience goes. Having an exclusive Fortnite skin to show-off in game would just be the perfect cherry-on-top. To redeem the exclusive skin, simply open AppGallery on your Honor 20, and navigate to Me > Gift > Wonder outfit banner, and then click to copy the code. Next, go to Fornite’s redemption page and follow the instructions mentioned. Launch Fortnite and enjoy your new skin.

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

-

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
