iPhone 7 price rumors suggest new storage options

iPhone 7 price rumors suggest new storage options

Another day, another batch of iPhone 7 rumors. The iPhone 7 price and storage capacity are in the spotlight today as a new report says two old storage option is going the way of the dinosaur although the pricing will stay the same.
It’s thought that Apple isn’t going to much with the iPhone 7 this year. The iPhone 8 release is assumed to be the next big thing from Apple although new colors and a revamped home button could be in the works for 2016. Not much has been said of the Apple iPhone 7 price, so many assumed it would stay the same barring any extreme changes under the hood or to the iPhone 7 design. Well, a new report from the Far East suggests consumers will lose not one, but two options in the storage department and that Apple will keep the pricing the same.
Apple is rumored to drop the 16GB edition of the iPhone 7, which may come as a huge surprise to some. The base model has arguably been one of their better sellers in years past, but with the rise of large apps, games, and high-def media, it appears they’ll nudge consumers towards the 32GB iPhone 7. The company is also rumored to send the 64GB model out the door as well, which means consumers will have a choice between the 32GB, 128GB, and the 256GB iPhone 7 in 2016.
Now for the iPhone 7 price. If the rumor proves true, the new base model 32GB iPhone 7 will be priced at 5288 Yuan or $795 while the 128GB will sell for 6088 Yuan/$915 and the big 256GB edition goes for 7088 Yuan, which shakes out to around $1,064. Keep in mind, that is just for the regular iPhone 7, not the Plus or Pro models as those are going to be quite a bit more expensive and basically require a loan for some folks if you want them unlocked.
You will definitely want to take this leak with a dose of salt as it would be a big deal if Apple decides to forgo the 16GB and 64GB models this year. As for the iPhone 7 price, that could be legit if the rest of the rumor proves although we’ll have to wait until September to truly find out what Apple has in store.

Oppo A30 now official but seems like the OnePlus X


Oppo A30 now official but seems like the OnePlus X


Now here’s a puzzling story for a quiet Saturday afternoon. Chinese manufacturer Oppo has introduced the A30 smartphone to its website although has not specified a price yet. So what’s unusual about that? Well, the Oppo A30 is now official but it seems just like the OnePlus X, the latest handset from OnePlus that released late last year.
Oppo’s official website now lists the Oppo A30 and it looks exactly the same as the OnePlus X. Not only that but the specs also seem to be virtually the same as those of the OnePlus X. Previously there have been rumors of ties between Oppo and OnePlus, and the arrival of the A30 seems to back that up, as it appears to be a rebranded OnePlus X.
Oppo A30 specs include a 5-inch display with Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080, 3GB of RAM, and 16GB of internal storage. It has a 13-megapixel rear camera with LED flash, an 8-megapixel front-facing shooter, and a 2525 mAh battery. The Oppo A30 supports 4G LTE and runs the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS. It measures 140mm x 69mm x 6.9mm and weighs in at 138g. It’s listed as having a 2GHz Snapdragon 800 quad-core processor and this is one difference, as the OnePlus X has a 2.3GHz Snapdragon 801 processor. Also the OnePlus X runs the Android-based OxygenOS.
While no price has been listed for the Oppo A30 yet, rumors suggest it will be around CNY 1,999. At the time of writing that equates to around $306, £212, or €275, although there’s no news yet of whether it will be sold outside China. Seeing as the OnePlus X is already on sale in many markets there would seem to be little need for an international release of the Oppo A30.
We’re quite intrigued by the Oppo A30 and its similarity to the One Plus X and it will be interesting to see pricing and availability details from Oppo. What are your thoughts on the Oppo A30?

Each year, we see a number of themed smartphones arrive from manufacturers around the globe. The Oppo F1 ICC WT20 is the latest smartphone to go that route, and it’s geared towards folks that enjoy the Gentleman’s game.
Depending on where you live, Cricket may or may not be a very big deal. That said, it is the sport of choice in certain regions around the globe, and Oppo is well aware of that. With that in mind, they decided to drop a new handset that caters to fans of Cricket, and they will even give you a chance to snag one for free in case you are a little strapped for cash at the moment.

Beneath the glass, you’ll find a Snapdragon 616 and 3GB of RAM, while the storage capacity is listed at 16GB but expandable up to128GB through the usual means.

Oppo R9 and R9 Plus specs disclosed by TENAA sighting


Oppo R9 and R9 Plus specs disclosed by TENAA sighting


Recently Oppo started teasing the launch of its R9 smartphone, and we’ve previously heard some leaked specifications although these were not confirmed. However, the Oppo R9 and R9 Plus specs have now been disclosed as both phones have now passed through the TENAA certification process in China.
The Oppo R9 launch is expected later this month and rumored specs so far have indicated a high-end device. Now the R9 TENAA appearance gives us a better idea of specs, and there are several differences to the earlier leaked details. For example the processor is thought to be a 1.95GHz Helio X10 octa-core but earlier leaks suggested a Snapdragon 820 chipset.
The TENAA filing for the Oppo R9 reveals a 5.5-inch OLED display with Full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080. It has 4GB of RAM, and 32GB of internal storage that’s expandable via microSD to 128GB. The phone has a 16-megapixel main camera at both the front and rear, and that’s a different arrangement to the 21/13-megapixel combo that was leaked earlier.
Further specs of the Oppo R9 are shown as a 2850 mAh battery and connectivity options of 4G LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth, USB etc. The phone will launch running the Android 5.1 Lollipop operating system and it’s a dual SIM device. The handset comes in Gold and Silver color choices and features a fingerprint sensor integrated with the Home button. It measures 151.8mm x 74.3mm x 6.5mm and weighs in at 145g.
The Oppo R9 Plus moves up to a larger 6-inch AMOLED display, also with Full HD resolution. It’s listed as having a 1.8GHz octa-core processor, possibly a Snapdragon 652 chip, and instead of 32GB of internal storage it moves up to 64GB. The R9 Plus also has a larger 4120 mAh battery, and runs Android 5.0 Lollipop. The cameras, RAM, and other specs are the same as for the regular R9. The handset comes in Gold or Rose Gold colors, measures 163mm x 80.8mm x 7.4mm, and weighs 185g.
There’s no firm news yet on pricing but the Oppo R9 is expected to have a price tag of around $350 to $400 on release. Thankfully we’re already in March so the official launch will soon come round and we’ll have confirmed information about a release date and more. If the price is right would you consider the Oppo R9 or Oppo R9 Plus?

Oppo Find 9 render emerges with sleek design

Oppo Find 9 render emerges with sleek design

 It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about the Oppo Find 9 release date. While that is still up in the air, a new render has emerged that claims to show the smartphone up close and personal.
It’s safe to say many smartphones these days share a few features when it comes to the design. Whenever a company does manage to put out something unique, it tends to get folks amped up. If the new Oppo Find 9 render pans out, we have a feeling it could be very popular whenever it finally hits the streets.
Weibo is the source of the rumored Oppo Find 9 image, and to be frank, there is not much to go on. The device is believed to be the Find 9 due to the “Skyline Breathing Light” but we do not get to see the backside, so there is no obvious branding. Regardless, it is a good looking smartphone and the metal accents around the edge are a nice touch as well.
As for the Oppo Find 9 specs, we may have got a look at one of the variants through a benchmark listing a few months back. A device dubbed the Oppo X9007 was listed with a Snapdragon 820, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage with a 16MP/4MP camera combo in tow. The high-end model of the Find 9 will be a bit beefier as it’s tipped to roll out with a Snapdragon 821, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and a 5.5-inch QHD panel. You will want to take those with a large dose of salt unless it doesn’t debut until sometime next year.
While the new render is certainly slick, take it lightly at the moment considering the lack of branding. It could definitely be a device from Oppo, but there is no guarantee it’s the elusive Oppo Find 9. Needless to say, we are as curious about the handset as anyone, so we will keep you in the loop as more details come to light on the Oppo Find 9 release date.

Karbonn Aura Power

Karbonn Aura Power arrives in India with Big Battery and 4G VoLTE

Karbonn has been fairly quite in 2016 although we did touch on the Karbonn A91 storm which launched earlier this month. The Karbonn Aura Power is the company’s latest handset gearing up to launch, and it has been announced for India with an affordable price tag.

Karbonn Quattro L45 IPS is officially introduced

New Karbonn smartphones often generate interest among buyers in India, and now the Karbonn Quattro L45 IPS has been officially introduced.

Karbonn Aura 9 arrives in India for Rs. 6,360

It’s been a few weeks since we took a look at a smartphone from Karbonn, but we’re back to give you the scoop on the Karbonn Aura 9 today. The device has just been announced for India, and it comes with a price tag of Rs. 6,360.

karbonn aura power

Karbonn has been fairly quite in 2016 although we did touch on the Karbonn A91 Storm which launched earlier this month. The Karbonn Aura Power is the company’s latest handset gearing up to launch, and it has been announced for India with an affordable price tag.
Karbonn has long been known to roll out budget-friendly handsets for consumers in India. You never quite know what you are going to get from the company until you take a hard look at the specs sheet, and this time around we’re getting a handset in the entry-level class. While far from magnificent, it is certainly cheap at the equivalent of $89 bucks in U.S. greenbacks. It also has a rather large battery…
The most attractive feature for the Karbonn Aura Power would have to be the battery, which is listed at 4,000Mah and said to provide around 17 hours of airtime. That is impressive and the camera combo isn’t bad with an 8MP rear sensor and 5MP front-facing snapper. The IPS display clocks in at 5-inches with a resolution of 854 x 480 while the chip powering the show is a 1GHz quad-core processor.
That chip will get some help from 1GB of RAM and the storage of the Karbonn Aura Power is meager at 8GB. Thankfully, it is expandable through the usual method. Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi, Dual-SIM card slots, and 4G LTE round things out in the connectivity department. Android 5.1 will keep the show running as the aforementioned 4,000mAh battery keeps the lights on.
If you are interested in the Karbonn Aura Power, it will be available to purchase in Dark Blue or Champagne if you reside in India. The price is currently listed at Rs. 5,990, which is right around £67/$89.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge gaming performance review

A really hot smartphone right now is the newly released Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, the curved edge more expensive compatriot of the Galaxy S6. It’s equipped with some very notable specs and also looks the part of a premium device. If you’re considering buying it and enjoy mobile gaming you might like this Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge gaming performance review.
Gaming on mobile devices is becoming an increasingly important factor for some people when purchasing a new smartphone, so it will be interesting to see how the phone copes in this respect. Key specs of the Galaxy S6 Edge include an Exynos 7420 octa-core processor, Mali-T760MP8 graphics, and 3GB of RAM. With these specs and also a 5.1-inch Super AMOLED display with Quad HD resolution of 2560 x 1440, the phone certainly looks equipped to offer a very decent gaming experience.
Below this article we’ve embedded a video from Fone Arena showing a gaming review on the Galaxy S6 Edge. It shows 6 different games being tested out on the phone and these are FIFA 15 UT, Asphalt 8, Riptide GP2, Modern Combat 5, Shadowgun, and GTA San Andreas. Throughout the 10-minute video you’ll see gameplay from all of the above on the S6 Edge, and after each section a score is given for both graphics and performance.
For instance, for Asphalt 8 a rating of 5/5 stars is given for each category. At the conclusion of the review you’ll also see an overall rating given but we won’t give that away here. However, from the example we gave, you can probably make a good guess at the result. A note is also shown that there were random graphics glitches in the GTA game due to no optimization.
It would be pleasing to hear from readers after you’ve checked out the video for yourselves. Have you now decided that the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is the right smartphone for you?

Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) review

Test du Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) : une belle évolution de la gamme

Samsung est décidément une marque fidèle a elle-même, capable de lancer régulièrement une quantité hallucinante de nouveaux modèles… dont, entre autres, le tout nouveau Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 (aussi appelé Samsung Galaxy J3 6) .
Un mobile qui reprendre une grande partie de la plateforme de modèle de la gamme J commercialisée en 2015, en les rendant plus accessibles (du point de vue tarif j’entends).
Et ce J3 2016 (connu en Europe sous la référence SM-J320FN) semble posséder tous les atouts nécessaires pour en faire le best-seller attendu par le constructeur, à l’instar d’autres modèles telles que le J1 2015, leJ5 2015, etc.
Un téléphone qui en avril 2016 (au moment de sa commercialisation) est vendu au prix maximum conseillé de 189€.                                                                                                                                

1. Esthétique : du pur Samsung

Test du Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 - vue 04Aucun doute, ce J3 2016 est un pur produit Samsung. Et son look ne trompe pas.
Ce qui se traduit par un design tout en courbe et un bouton physique « accueil » à la forme si caractéristique.
La prise en main est assez « particulière »… car le téléphone étant relativement « rond », et doté d’un plastique lisse, on a vite fait de le voir glisser.
Donc, gare aux chutes… il faudra le tenir fermement.
Pour ce qui est de la finition, elle est, comme toujours avec Samsung, irréprochable.
Même si l’ensemble du mobile est construit en plastique, il n’y a aucun jeu dans les éléments, et le tout ne donne pas un sentiment de « cheap ».
Un téléphone que l’on peut retrouver en 3 versions couleurs : dorée (la version testée), blanche ou bien encore noire.
  • Dimensions : 14,2 cm de long x 7,1 cm de large x 0,8 cm d’épaisseur | Poids : 138 grammes

2. Image et son : bel écran pour un entrée de gamme

Test du Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 - vue 07Il s’agit clairement d’un des points forts de ce mobile.
Son bel écran utilise la technologie « maison » de Samsung… s’agissant d’un Super AMOLED.
En conséquence, l’image est contrastée, avec des noirs vraiment profonds, les couleurs sont vives et la luminosité est bonne.
En outre, on dispose ici une belle résolution HD 720p, encore rare sur des mobiles entrée de gamme.
En 2015, n’oublions pas qu’au même niveau de prix, Samsung proposait des écrans 540p (voir le test du Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime).
Pour ce qui est du son, rien de bien significatif à indiquer.
Que ce soit le son procuré par l’écouteur, le haut-parleur ou bien encore le jack 3.5
On notera simplement qu’une fois encore, le haut-parleur est positionné au dos de l’appareil, ce qui donnera un son étouffé lorsque ce dernier est posé sur une table…
  • Ecran : 5 pouces (Super AMOLED) avec résolution HD (1280 x 720 pixels), soit donc une densité de 294ppp.
  • Son : jack 3.5 et haut-parleur dorsal mono. Écouteur classique.

3. Performances : très raisonnables

Test du Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 - vue 11Non, le J3 6 n’est pas une bête de course, loin de là…
Il s’agit même d’un mobile plutôt « raisonnable » si on prend en considération ses performances et son score Antutu relativement bas (et à des années lumières d’un S7).
Cependant, ce mobile n’a aucun problème pour faire fonctionner un gros jeu 3D (testé avec Asphalt 8 en mode qualité graphique « élevé », ainsi que Real Racing 3).
L’image est donc fluide, comme le prouvent les tests réalisés avec Epic Citadel (49,3 images par seconde en mode « hautes performances »).
Même chose pour le multitâches, ce mobile bénéficiant de 2 points bons qui lui évitent de « laguer/frizer/buguer » : une bonne quantité de mémoire vive, ainsi qu’une surcouche donc la gourmandise est moindre que celle des précédentes versions.
A noter qu’il existe une version dotée de 16Go de ROM (contre le 8Go présent sur le modèle testé).
Cependant, cette version boostée n’est pas destinée à l’Europe.
  • Antutu (V6) : 26.400 points | Epic Citadel : 47,2 ips (en mode « haute qualité »).
  • Processeur : Quatre-coeurs 1,5GHz 32 bits (Spreadtrum SC7731) | Mémoire vive : 1,5Go  |Processeur graphique : Mali 400MP
  • Mémoire de stockage : 8Go de mémoire qui se transforme en 4,3Go lors du premier démarrage.

4. Connectivité : complète

Test du Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 - vue 14Il est vrai que depuis quelques mois, même les plus entrée de gamme des smartphones disposent d’une connexion 4G… à tel point que l’on peut se demander ce qu’il reste aux mobiles ultra-haut de gamme sur ce point.
A une exceptions près (l’infrarouge) ce mobile ne démérite pas face à des téléphones vendus 700€ et plus en 2016.
On a donc ici une connexion 2G/3G/4G LTE, doublée d’une connexion GSM quadribandes (utile si vous voyagez souvent à l’étranger).
Et naturellement, on retrouve toute la panoplie d’autres connexions : WiFi (b/g/n), bluetooth (4.0), aGPS/GLONASS, micro USB (2.0), NFC (avec fonction « paiement »), radio FM, emplacement pour carte sim (format « micro »), etc.
Comme on s’y attend, ce téléphone n’a montré aucune problème tant pour l’accroche que pour la stabilité du signal.
Et ce, que ce soit en GSM, 3G/4G, WiFi, etc.
Edit : Cependant, pour ce qui est des capteurs, certains montrent clairement leur absence ce qui pourrait embêter certains utilisateurs.
Car si on dispose bien d’un capteur de proximité et d’un accéléromètre, il manque la boussole, le gyroscope, ainsi que le capteur de luminosité… dommage.
  • DAS (Débit d’Absorption Spécifique) : 0,48w/kg. C’est un score tout à fait correct (dans la bonne norme) des mobiles conçus et commercialisés en 2016.

5. Système d’exploitation : Android légèrement Samsung-isé

Test du Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 - vue 12Aucune surprise, et on retrouve en toute logique sur un mobile Samsung (encore plus un « Galaxy »), un système d’exploitation Android.
La version 5.1 « Lollipop » pour être plus précis, dont il est clair qu’il ne sera jamais mise à jour en 6.0 « Marshmallow » (et encore moins en version 7.0).
Un système efficace et apprécié, qui a bénéficier du traitement du constructeur, qui lui a adjoint une sympathique surcouche.
Sympathique, car elle est intuitive et ne consomme pas autant de ressources que les versions précédentes, qui étaient « too much ».
On est donc pas sur l’abondance d’effets spéciaux offerts par les mobiles de la gamme « S », mais malgré tout, il y a du bon.
A ce titre, on peut citer :
- S Planner : une sorte de Google Agenda au look retravaillé. Pas révolutionnaire, mais plus design.
- Galaxy Apps : une sorte de Play Store avec des recommandations de Samsung.
- Smart Manager : qui permet de gérer l’autonomie du smartphone, ainsi que sa mémoire interne, sa mémoire vive, etc.
- Microsoft Apps : on sent que Samsung et Microsoft ont un accord, et on a des applications telles que Excel, PowerPoint, Word et (jusqu’à) 100Go d’espace sur OneDrive.
- Paramètres > Thèmes : permet de personnaliser facilement son mobile (certains thèmes sont payants).
  • Système d’exploitation : Android 5.1.1 « Lollipop » | Surcouche : Samsung « TouchWiz ».

6. Usage : qualité photo correcte

Test du Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 - vue 10Inutile de nous attarder sur les fonctions de base d’un téléphone moderne, que ce soit la gestion des appels/SMS/MMS/emails, mais aussi le surf sur Internet ou encore la lecture de mp3/vidéos…
Même chose pour les jeux 3D que nous avons traité dans la partie « Performances ».
Il reste donc 2 usages qui, de nos jours, permettent de distinguer les smartphones entre eux.
Et ce sont la qualité des capteurs photos, et l’autonomie.
Pour ce qui est de la qualité photo, ce mobile prouve que le nombre de méga-pixels ne fait pas la qualité… avoir un gros capteur plein de MP ne donne donc pas forcément la meilleure photo.
Et ici, c’est bien le cas, car avec un « petit » capteur dorsal de 8MP, ce téléphone offre de bonnes photos. A la qualité tout à fait décente.
Le capteur frontal permettra quant à lui de prendre des selfies de bonne qualité… ou plus précisément, de qualité acceptable pour un smartphone qui ne se veut pas être un « selfie-phone ».
Pour ce qui est de l’autonomie, la batterie de 2.600 mAh semble être parfaitement adaptée à ce mobile (même si on aurait aimé avoir plus gros) et lui permet de dépasser aisément une journée avant la recharge.
D’autant que le J3 2016 dispose du mode « économie » d’énergie et du mode « ultra économie d’énergie » qui permettent d’allonger l’autonomie du mobile en réduisant la fréquence du processeur, en désactivant des connexions, en limitant les tâches de fond, etc.
  • Appareil photo dorsal :  8MP avec autofocus (efficace, avec détection des visages) et flash LED. Films en 1080p 30fps. Voir un échantillon photo.
  • Appareil photo frontal : 5MP. Voir un échantillon photo.
  • Batterie : Extractible de 2.600 mAh. Fonction économite d’énergie. 1 heure de vidéo consommera 18% d’énergie.

En conclusion : bon rapport satisfaction/prix

Sans être la meilleure affaire de l’année 2016, ce Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 est un bon mobile.
Un smartphone sympathique, vendu (dès son lancement) à un prix qui me semble adaptée et juste, et qui va se confronter à une armada entière de téléphones proposées par des concurrents tous plus énervés les uns que les autres (on pourra notamment citer un de nos derniers tests : LG K10).
Le J3 2016 ne brille pas par ses performances, qui sont au mieux, adaptées à ce moibile et aux applications/jeux qu’on lancera avec lui.
Cependant, pour tout le reste, nous sommes sur du tout à fait satisfaisant.
Si certains regretterons le design « tout plastique » du mobile (et pour ma part, le côté trop glissant du dos) on ne pourra pas trouver d’autres points négatifs à ce téléphone qui est, je le rappelle, un entrée de gamme vendu à moins de 200€).
Un mobile qui offre donc un bon rapport satisfaction/prix.
A des années lumières des coûteux et déraisonnables S7 et S7 Edge, certes, mais qui vous donnera un réel plaisir d’utilisation, et calmera votre banquier.
  • Les plus : design agréable, bel écran, connectivité complète, surcouche efficace et peu gourmande.
  • Les moins : design un peu trop plastique et lisse/glissant. performances justes (mais acceptables).
