First information about Motorola Ibiza
Motorola is apparently planning an entry-level smartphone with 5G, the Motorola Ibiza, as it is currently called internally. The Ibiza is said to be one of the first smartphones with the 5GProprocessor from Qualcomm's 400 series. The chip manufacturer presented this at IFA 2020. When inspecting the remaining specs, it is also noticeable that we are in the entry-level range here. The display only has a resolution of HD+.
Pictures and details of the Huawei P50 Pro popped up
In March or April, we will most likely see new smartphones from Huawei, the P50 series devices. Almost two months before the expected launch, we now have the first pictures and details. The upcoming ProThe smartphone is said to render similar to the current Mate 40 Pro look. This is to say that Huawei very likely opted for a waterfall design. The display should be 6,6 inches in size. It is interesting that Huawei will apparently use a conventional speaker for phone calls again. Since the unveiling of the P30 series, this has been located under the display. Further information is not yet known at the current status.
LG Wing review
Smartphones with new designs are increasingly conquering the market. Foldables in particular have been seeing more and more of them lately. LG is taking a slightly different approach with the Wing. Here the upper part of the device can be rotated so that the entire construction looks like a T. You can read about the advantages and disadvantages and for whom the LG Wing is actually suitable in Fabian Menzel's test report.
