First Samsung Galaxy Watch Active4 renders surface, showing a new, flatter design

 First Samsung Galaxy Watch Active4 renders surface, showing a new, flatter design


Samsung will unveil a new breed of smartwatches soon, possibly in August. They will run Wear OS, the first Samsung watches to do so in quite a while, but it will be skinned with One UI for a smoother transition from the current models. Thanks to OnLeaks and GizNext we get our first look at the design of the upcoming Active model.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active4 will move away from the rounded sides of the current Active2 model. Even the two buttons on the side will be rectangular rather than round. The new shape helps emphasize the thinness of the bezel around the display.

Since this is an Active watch there’s no rotating bezel, not a physical one at least. And note that the glass over the display is flat, not domed like on the current model. The lugs look different too, suggesting that Samsung will switch to proprietary straps.

According to leaked info, the Galaxy Watch Active4 will be available in two sizes, 40 mm and 44 mm, and will come in four colors: Black, Silver, Green and Gold. Note that the renders are just for illustration purposes and the represented hues may not be 100% accurate.

The flat display and narrow bezels match what Ice Universe tweeted back in May. The Cat also talked of “TizenWear OS” (which Samsung has confirmed officially) and a 5 nm chipset. Roland Quandt tuned in to say that there will be one aluminum model and one stainless steel one (as is the case with the Active2). There should also be Wi-Fi only and LTE versions of the watch.

vivo iQOO 7 Legend

  vivo iQOO 7 Legend Introduction and specs Vivo decided to launch some of its gaming-oriented iQOO phones globally this year, with the iQOO 7 Legend representing the Chinese vanilla iQOO 7 while the global iQOO 7 stands for the iQOO Neo5. The subject of this hands-on review is the Legend. And the latter gives you pretty much everything you'd want from a gaming smartphone. An HRR OLED panel is at hand, ticking at 120Hz, and all those pixels are powered by the Snapdragon 888 chipset. And for a complete multimedia experience, the phone features a set of loud stereo speakers, too. Sadly, no 3.5mm audio jack, which is somewhat still a standard for gaming devices. vivo iQOO 7 Legend specs at a glance: Body:  162.2x75.8x8.7mm, 210g; Glass front and back, metal frame.

Huawei MatePad Pro 12.6

  Huawei MatePad Pro 12.6 Introduction You are going to hear that it's a new dawn for Huawei thanks to the first public release of HarmonyOS. And the new MatePad tablets are supposed to usher Huawei's products into a Harmony era and drop Android for good. But underneath all this PR talk everything boils down to one thing - can Harmony-operated devices rival Android's and Apple's? We have the MediaPad Pro 12.6 for a review today, and that's what we are going to try and find out. Just because Apple is dominating the tablet market with its iPads, it doesn't mean the competition should disappear. On the contrary, we'd love to see more slates like the Galaxy Tab S7 trio and the newly announced MatePad series. The tablet market might appear as a niche one, but it leads to some incredible UI advancements and some of those inevitably make their way onto phones, too. And today we are thrilled to meet a new large tablet with stylus support and a (supposedly) brand new...

Oppo Band Style Review

  Oppo Band Style Review Oppo is mainly known as a smartphone brand, but the company's product portfolio includes wireless earphones, smart TVs, and smartwatches as well. Oppo also launched its first smartband last year, called the Oppo Band, followed by a facelift version called the Oppo Band Style. The Oppo Band Style is basically the regular Band coming with an extra strap in the box, with the rest of its highlights including an AMOLED panel, real-time heart rate monitoring, and the usual set of features you find on any other fitness band in this price range. Alongside the extra strap, the feature that sets the Band Style apart from most other wearables in its category is the continuous SpO2 monitoring. But is that enough to make it a worthy buy? We try to find that out with this review. Oppo Band Style specifications Display:  1.1", 126x294 pixel AMOLED color touchscreen, 2.5D Curved Glass, 100% DCI-P3 gamut Straps:  Detachable straps, 14mm width, 130-205mm ...
