Google previously showed us a glimpse of the upcoming Pixel 4 earlier this year. The teaser hinted a face unlock and gesture system. The launch of the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro were quickly overshadowed with a full blown leak of the Google Pixel 4 XL which is set to launch on October 15, 2019.

A leaked hands-on video showed a pink-orange variant of the Pixel 4. The leak is shared on the Google Pixel subreddit by Youtube channel Gadget Leaks. The 15-second video confirms that the Pixel 4 will have more than one camera and that it has a square cutout similar to the iPhone 11 Pro.

A photo has also been leaked showing that the Pixel 4 XL running DevCheck Hardware and System Info App. Photos show that the Pixel 4 XL is powered by a Snapdragon 855 paired with the Adreno 640 GPU. Memory and Storage configurations aren’t shown but we are expecting 6GB or 8GBs of RAM and atleast 128GBs of storage up to 512GBs.

Internals aside, the Pixel 4 uses a 6.23″ inch notchless display while the taller Pixel 4 XL has a 19:9 2960 x 1440p resolution. In addition to the new components, the Google Pixel 4’s display will reportedly have a 90hz refreshrate powered by a 3,700 mAh battery.

OPPO A9 2020 Hands-On and First Impressions

0

The OPPO A9 2020 is the newest smartphone from that will arrive in the Philippines soon and it is set to make an impact on the mid-range segment thanks to its powerful specifications inside including a brand new Snapdragon 665 processor inside and also a spanking quad rear camera which is a first in the A-series of OPPO. Want to know more about it? check out our hands-on and first impressions below.

The OPPO A9 2020 does pack a brand new design that strikes a familiar design from their previous flagship smartphone, the OPPO Find X. The one that we got for review is the Marine Green color and it looks damn gorgeous.

It’s not just gorgeous because the OPPO A9 2020 does feel natural in my hand thanks to its curved back and also the premium feel that is being used on the OPPO A9 2020. The smartphone is quite big but it also means that we’re getting a more immersive experience on its display which is a 6.6-inch HD+ display with a weird 20:9 display aspect ratio. Yes, the smartphone is quite tall but it does look good for watching videos but it isn’t really crisp as you can expect.

Thankfully, OPPO has decided to join the ranks of other brands with USB-C as the OPPO A9 2020 is finally using USB-C however, there’s no support for VOOC fast charging on this one.

Going to the camera, the OPPO A9 2020 packs a quadruple lens rear camera. There’s the 48MP main camera, 8MP ultra wide-angle lens that you can use for wider shots and then there’s the 2MP portrait lens and also a 2MP mono lens.

Surprisingly, the smartphone does perform well in the camera department as I was able to get some nice shots on the smartphone with pretty good dynamic range and colors along with the good selfie camera. Check out the shots that I took below:

The OPPO A9 2020 is surprisingly a good smartphone. Not just in terms of design but also because of its hardware inside and also the quad-camera setup of the smartphone that performs well. The OPPO A9 2020 will be available in the Philippines soon.

Despite the metal build of the tablet, the Huawei Mediapad T5 will do and weigh just fine even when you’re holding the tablet in just one hand.

The display looks nice as we got here a 1920×1200 display and details were crisp and quite good for its price range. It’s also bright enough to be used outside so you can watch videos anywhere and wherever you want. The bezel looks fine too which is enough to hold the tablet well.

The tablet also utilizes a micro USB port which is getting old but thankfully, we still have a headphone jack on the Huawei Mediapad T5. There’s a dual speaker too on the tablet which will do just fine but not as good as the Huawei Mediapad M5 Lite that we’ve reviewed before.

Inside the tablet is a little bit dated as we got here a Kirin 659 processor which was used by the Huawei Nova 2i years before but nonetheless, we’re still running on EMUI 8 based on Android 8 so it will be just fine.

So if you’re planning on getting a tablet that you can use for your children or just a tablet for basic entertainment like watching videos then the Huawei Mediapad T5 will do just fine as we got here a Full HD Display and dual speakers.
