Now that notches have taken a permanent seat at the top of most smartphone displays, various smartphone makers are trying to reduce the notch’s footprint to make it more pleasing to eyes. This race to reduce the size of the notch has given birth to a new notch style which is popularly known as a teardrop notch. Also known as the dewdrop or waterdrop notch, the teardrop notch is just big enough to house the front-facing camera.

The new  Galaxy A9 , announced yesterday, holds the distinction of being the first smartphone with quad rear cameras. It is quite surprising for Samsung to launch a not-flagship smartphone which packs such a distinctive feature, gaining a big leg up on the rivals with three cameras. But are the Galaxy A9’s quad cameras merely a marketing ploy to revive the sales of Samsung’s Galaxy A-series devices? Well, we can’t be sure. But if you are wondering how a quad rear camera can improve the imaging output, then let’s get straight to the imaging hardware and see how those four cameras work, before showing you the camera samples. Do note that  the camera samples have been taken on pre-production software  so there will be some more fine-tuning in the color reproduction, smoothening algorithms and such in the final version which hits retail. Meet The Sensors The Galaxy A9’s camera array is made up of an ultra-wide  8MP wide-angle lens  with F/2.4 aperture and a 120-degree field of view

However, we have now learned that OnePlus 6T will be up for pre-booking on Amazon India from midnight today.

PUBG Corp. recently released  PUBG Mobile Lite , a toned down version of PUBG Mobile for budget smartphones. The company has now done a similar thing for PUBG on PCs. PUBG can now be run on less powerful hardware thanks to  PUBG Project Thai.  As the name clearly suggests, the game is only available in Thailand for now. The system requirements for PUBG Project Thai are lower than those of PUBG, and surprisingly, it can also run on PCs with an Intel Core i3 CPU and an Intel HD graphics. PUBG Project Thai kicked off as a beta test last month and was only available to players on an  invite-only basis  after completing a registration process. You can download the EXE from the link above, which comes in at just 61.3 MB. After setup, the installer asks for a username and password, which you will get once you register for the game. Listed below is the recommended system requirement to run PUBG Project Thai: CPU : Intel Core i5 clocked at 2.8 GHz GPU : Nvidia GeForce GTX 660

Samsung recently lifted the covers off its first smartphone with a triple camera setup – the  Galaxy A7 . Starting at a competitive price of  Rs. 23,990 , the all-new Galaxy A7 packs in an Exynos 7885 SoC, coupled with 4/6GB of RAM and 64/128GB of internal storage. As with most other modern smartphones these days, the Galaxy A7 also packs in a fingerprint sensor and a face unlock feature for biometric authentication. However, with the Galaxy A7, Samsung has taken a new route with the fingerprint sensor and has replaced it from the back of the device to the power button. The face unlock feature remains as basic as ever and just makes use of the front camera to authenticate the user’s face. If, in case, you’ve been meaning to purchase the  Galaxy A7 , there are a couple of things you should know about the fingerprint scanner and the face unlock feature. Firstly, lets talk about the fingerprint scanner on the Galaxy A7: Galaxy A7 Power Button Fingerprint Scanner Unlike other m

Now, after numerous leaks including official renders of the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL donning  official ‘Made by Google’ fabric covers , the Pixel 3 pair has re-emerged on the website of popular case maker Spigen.
