Schematic allegedly shows Samsung Galaxy S7 Plus

Recently, we came across what was claimed to be a schematic that showed the 5.2-inch Samsung Galaxy S7 and the 5.5-inch Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Now, a new schematic allegedly shows the rumoured and massive Samsung Galaxy S7 Plus. Samsung Galaxy S7 Plus? Similar to what we ve recently seen with the past schematic, this newly leaked schematic, which allegedly comes from case maker ITSKINS and leaked by GSMArena, also claims to show us what the Samsung Galaxy S7 Plus will look like. It also shows that Samsung did not completely redesign the S7 Plus. It looks exactly like the S6, but features a rectangular home button unlike the rounded home button of the S6. There is, however, conflicting information with the S7 in the first schematic and this new one. In the first schematic, the S7 is said to feature a 5.2-inch screen. In this new schematic, the S7 is said to feature a 5.1-inch screen. Everything else is consistent, such as the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge featuring a 5.5-inch screen. La

Samsung Galaxy On7 header shows Galaxy On5

Recent leaks were all about the Samsung Galaxy On7 and the Samsung Galaxy On5. Now the Galaxy On7 s product page has just gone live via Samsung China, and it s header confirms that the On5 exists as well. Samsung Galaxy On7 header confrims Samsung Galaxy On5 Before anything else, the Galaxy On7 may be an affordable device for the masses, but it doesn t look like it at all. It bears Samsung s current design language, making it resemble the S6 with the Note 3 s leather-like rear cover. Check out the Samsung Galaxy On7 s official renders below: At the time of writing, Samsung China is yet to make the Galaxy On5 official, but it seems to have confirmed the existence of the device in the On7 s header (see first render above).

New LG V10 ad shows that it is childproof

The recently unveiled LG V10 has now been released in South Korea. LG is heavily promoting their new phablet, with one new Korean-speaking ad showing how the device can be childproof. Childproof LG V10 Here s the new ad: We all know the horrors devices go through in the hands of a child, which is exactly what the video shows. It shows the LG V10 being beaten up by three kids in every possible way. The LG V10 rocks a stainless steel frame and a material called Dura Skin found on the back and bottom of the device. According to LG, Dura Skin offers added protection from direct impacts to the device. Although the LG V10 is a tough device when it comes to scratches and drops, it isn t water resistant, which is why the ad doesn t show the device being dunked in liquids. To recap, the LG V10 sports a 5.7-inch screen with a resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels (Quad HD). This works out to a pixel density of 513 ppi. The second 2.1-inch screen has a resolution of 160 x 1040 pixels. This works out

Photo shows Sony XPERIA Z5 Premium torn down – reveals thermal paste and dual heat pipes

At IFA 2015 in Berlin, Germany, Sony officially unveiled the Sony XPERIA Z5, the Sony XPERIA Z5 Compact, and the Sony XPERIA Z5 Premium, the world s first smartphone with a 4K screen. What s disappointing is that all three smartphones come with the Snapdragon 810 64-bit octa-core processor made by Qualcomm. True, it is a powerful CPU, but it is also plagued with overheating issues. With this in mind, since the Sony XPERIA Z5 Premium sports a 4K screen, will it constantly overheat? If a leaked photo is to be believed, it seems the Japanese device maker has solved this issue.

Video shows Snapdragon 810 on board Sony XPERIA Z5 manages to keep cool

When Sony lifted the lid on the new Sony XPERIA Z5, its new flagship, many Sony fans were disappointed to find out the new smartphone had the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 octa-core processor. This CPU is a 64-bit octa-core processor that comes with four cores clocked at 2 GHz, four cores clocked at 1.5 GHz, and an Adreno 430 GPU. Sounds powerful right. The problem is, this is the same processor under the hood of the international Sony XPERIA Z3 Plus and the Japanese-exclusive Sony XPERIA Z4 (both former and later are one an the same), which caused overheating problems. This said, would the same CPU cause the same overheating problems with the Sony XPERIA Z5? Snapdragon 810 on board the Sony XPERIA Z5 keeps its cool Any owner of a smartphone with 4K video recording capabilities knows that their device will start to heat up a little when recording ultra high definition videos.
