Oppo Reno Ace with 90Hz display to be unveiled next month

Oppo recently launched its Reno2 series of smartphones in India and has introduced the phones in China as well. However, the smartphone maker isn’t done just yet as it is working on a new handset, which is confirmed to come equipped with a 90Hz display refresh rate. Oppo’s vice president, Shen Yiren, has confirmed that the company will launch the Oppo Reno Ace smartphone with a 90Hz display refresh rate on October 2019. In addition, the upcoming device will come with fast charging support. Currently, only the name and the two aforementioned features of the handset are confirmed by Oppo. 

It seems like a higher refresh rate for displays is becoming a new trend for smartphone makers. This is especially true with ‘gaming’ handsets that are aimed at mobile gamers. However, there are very few titles on smartphones that can take advantage of a high refresh rate. Currently, PUBG Mobile can touch a maximum of 60fps on high-end phones. Additionally, the effects of the higher refresh rate are mostly perceived while navigating around a phone’s UI. While a higher refresh rate is always a good option to have, companies do provide an option to dial it down to conserve the battery. 

As mentioned above, the news comes soon after Oppo launched its Oppo Reno2 series of smartphones. The Oppo Reno2 series consists of the standard Reno2, the Reno2 F and the Reno2 Z handsets. The Reno2 is equipped with a 6.55-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display and it runs on the octa-core Snapdragon 730G processor. Its display is protected with Gorilla Glass 6 and there’s also an in-display fingerprint sensor on the phone. Equipped with 8GB RAM and 256GB of internal storage, the handset also sports memory expansion via an SDcard slot.

MIUI 11 accidental rollout reveals new design, icons, features and more

One of the most popular Android skins out there, the MIUI is getting an upgrade. But, ahead of an official announcement, Xiaomi has accidentally rolled out the Android 10 based MIUI 11 to some of its devices. It has given us a look at what’s new in MIUI 11. The new MIUI version could have new icons, ultra power saving mode, system-wide dark mode, and more. The company rolled it out on devices including the Redmi K20 Pro, Mi Mix 2S, and Mi 6. 

MIUI 11 appears to add new iconography as well. The icons will be colourful, but there doesn’t seem to be any consistency in terms of shape. XDA-Developers reports, “The motto for MIUI 11 is “Empowering the productive,” and the design uses a lot of empty white space and big, bold text throughout. One of the screenshots shows off the new design in more system apps.”

The MIUI 11 is said to add a cross-device sharing feature that Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi are collaborating on. The new MIUI adds new features to the 'Always on Display' feature changing the colour of the text automatically over time, adding a Kaleidoscope-style which has 5 different patterns that rotate each time you turn the screen on, and more.

The new MIUI is also found to have bold text throughout the interface. Also, it includes a reference to the unannounced Mi 9 Pro 5G. MIUI 11 also seems to have a dark mode scheduler in addition to a quick replies option for certain messaging apps.

Recently, Xiaomi Product Director and MIUI Experience Head confirmed that the company will be rolling out a switch that will allow users to disable ads in MIUI. However, it is being tested presently and could roll out with MIUI 11. Furthermore, Xiaomi CEO and co-founder Lei Jun had also confirmed that along with reducing ads in the interface, it will also remove inappropriate ads that mar the user experience.

OnePlus TV in Kevlar back finish teased by CEO

As the OnePlus TV is nearing its launch date, we are getting new details about the device from the CEO himself. Earlier, the Amazon page for the TV went live, revealing key information. The listing revealed that the TV will feature a 55-inch 4K QLED display with support for Dolby Vision. The OnePlus TV will have 8 speakers with 50W output, powered by Dolby Atmos sound. Now, Pete Lau has shared an image teasing the back finish of the device.

OnePlus CEO Pete Lau took to Twitter to tease the Kevlar finish on the back of the OnePlus TV. The image further reveals a unique stand design, which is unlike other TVs available in the market today. The stand is said to have a swivel mechanism and appears to hold the TV from the top. Hence, the OnePlus TV is likely to have the ports and connections at the bottom.

Lau has also revealed that the OnePlus TV will run Android TV. It will also receive software updates for at least three years. Hence, the TV will offer features like access to Google Assistant and the Play Store. Further, Lau said in a post that the goal is to offer the same fast and smooth experience of OnePlus phones for the OnePlus TV and the only way to achieve that was by adopting Android TV. However, it is expected to ship with a modified version of Android TV OS.

Rumours have it that the OnePlus TV would be announced in four different sizes: 43-inch, 55-inch, 65-inch, and 75-inch size variants. The TV will feature a custom Gamma Color Magic processor. Recently, Lau also shared an image of the OnePlus TV remote that seems to be fairly slim. The remote has five distinct buttons on the top. The remote is likely to pair with the OnePlus TV via Bluetooth and previously, a Bluetooth remote was certified by the Bluetooth SIG.
