Facebook gets a new app icon
It's hard to believe, but that was actually your top-clicked news this week. This week Facebook presented a new icon for its app. The symbol now shines in a new look - at least under iOS. With Android, the distribution is currently a little slower, not many users see the new icon yet. An update of the Facebook app is required in order to see the new icon.
These smartphones support the Android Q Beta
This week the Google I / O took place. Google also has the matching third Android Q beta released. Now on Wednesday there were more concrete indications of which manufacturers and smartphones will be taking part in the beta program. So far only users of a Pixel smartphone have been able to test the latest version. Now the test is being passed on to other manufacturers. Unfortunately not all new smartphones are included.

OnePlus 7 Pro should vibrate more
The weak vibration motor of previous OnePlus smartphones was often criticized. This is particularly annoying when you have your smartphone in your pocket and have deactivated the ringtone. Then you often don't feel whether someone is actually calling. OnePlus now wants to change this and will give the OnePlus 7 Pro a better vibration motor. It should also be possible to change the strength of the vibration. The two new smartphones will be presented on May 14th - a rumor overview with all the details and leaks will follow shortly on TechnikNews.
Camera under the display? Samsung is working on it
This is your 5th place in the most clicked news this week. Samsung is currently working on a camera under the display. So far, you have always had to be satisfied with a notch or other recess for a borderless display. The concept of a pop-up camera also already existed. However, Samsung somehow still does not seem to be satisfied with this - they want to get the camera in the display.
