New Galaxy Note8 leaked renders show camera bump, confirm position of the fingerprint sensor

-


Last week a comprehensive report shed a lot of light on Samsung's upcoming Note8 smartphone, including its record-breaking price. One of the things that leak did not have was any kind of image portraying the device. Today, however, two different sources have come up with CAD-based renders of the Galaxy Note8.


Let's start with the more schematic one. Like the other renders outed today, this confirms the position of the fingerprint sensor that was talked about in last week's leak. We also get the umpteenth confirmation of the dual rear camera setup.


As you can see, the fingerprint scanner is still in a place that makes it very easy to accidentally smudge the camera - the one closest to it, at least. That said, the bump that houses the cameras, heart rate monitor, LED flash, and the fingerprint sensor itself may aid in locating it by touch alone.


The design is the same in these other shots, except they look less schematic and closer to actual press renders. Interestingly, the top screen bezel seems to be larger than what we've seen in the S8 duo, even though so far most rumors have said the Note8 will basically look just like a slightly bigger S8+.


If you want to see more of this year's Note, you can also check out the video below, which is all about these CAD-based renders.


The device has been rumored to come with a 6.3-inch 18.5:9 AMOLED touchscreen, the Snapdragon 835 or Exynos 8895 chipset (depending on market), 6GB of RAM, and a 3,300 mAh battery. The rear cameras will be 12 MP each, and both will feature optical image stabilization.

Google is pushing out an updated version of its contacts management app, bringing some of the features available in the web version to the Android app. The v 1.5 update reorganizes the user interface of Google Contacts. Instead of the two tabs – all and favorites – the app now just displays your entire contact list, with a sidebar menu available via the hamburger button on the left. Opening that up reveals a new section for managing duplicate contacts. That’s a feature that was present on the web app of Contacts , but the process was more convoluted on the Android app. You can now also add labels to your contacts, making it easy to organize large contact lists based on groups, for things like family, work, or school. That’s another feature that was present on the web app and it’s now finally making the jump to the Android app, a place where it’s actually more likely to be used. Google Contacts 1.5 is currently rolling out to all users, so it should land on your

LG Display used CES 2018 in Las Vegas to officially unveil its new OLED displays - one of them being a 65-inch 4K flexible screen that can be rolled like a newspaper. The other is an 88” 8K OLED panel that we told you about last week. The flexibility of the 65” OLED display makes it easier to transport or store in the corner. Its small size allows for better space utilization, meaning you can take the TV anytime, anywhere and “enjoy bright, high-resolution content”. LG Display will also showcase its latest upgrades of the IPS technology. The panels now have IPS nano-color, “which expresses rich colors using nanoscale high-color reproduction particles, and IPS technology, which increases the transmittance and reduces the intensity of light reflected on the panel.”, said the company in a press release.
