New leaks could give us our first look at the new OnePlus 8T

It seems like the latest Android 11 Developer Preview 4 code has included an image of the upcoming OnePlus 8T, but don’t get too excited just yet. Remember that it is not official information, so you must take it with some salt.

We have a new tweet posted by Venkatesh Babu.G, showing what seems to be the new OnePlus 8T. Unfortunately, this render only shows the front of the device, which pretty much looks like the OnePlus 8. The 8T is supposed to arrive with a 64MP camera, which suggests a significant improvement from the 48MP sensor on the current OnePlus 8, and it seems that it may arrive with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus processor.

There’s no clue as to when this new series will launch, as the company presented the OnePlus Nord less than two months ago. However, it is expected for OnePlus to launch the 8T in early-to-mid fall.

Bang & Olufsen’s Beoplay H95 headphones feature rotating dials, but cost a bomb

Danish electronics brand and a renowned name in the audio industry, Bang & Olufsen, has launched a new pair of high-end noise-canceling headphones. Dubbed the Beoplay H95, the new headphones from Bang & Olufsen employ luxurious materials such as anodized aluminum as well as lambskin and cowhide leather, and look every bit as premium as their eye-watering $800 price tag suggests.

The Beoplay H95 headphones come equipped with 40mm Titanium drivers, and offer support for SBC, AAC and aptX Adaptive codecs. You get four mics onboard, Bluetooth 5.1 support, and a 1,110mAh battery that is claimed to last an impressive 38 hours with adaptive ANC enabled or 50 hours without it. Siri support is also available, while Alexa and Google Assistant will arrive next year.

The most notable aspect of Bang & Olufsen’s latest headphones is the rotating dial on both the earcups, which is not exactly an original idea as Microsoft’s latest Surface Headphones already rock them for intuitive controls. The dial on the right earcup can be rotated to control the volume level, while the other one can be twisted to control the noise cancellation levels. The earcups can also recognize tap and swipe gestures.

Samsung is fresh off the launch of its latest flagship Android tablets – the Galaxy Tab S7 duo – but the company apparently has a budget tablet in the making as well. Prolific leakster Evan Blass has shared (Patreon account / via XDA-Developers) an alleged render of the Galaxy Tab A7 2020, giving us a glimpse of the tablet in gold and gray colorways.


Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 2020 (Evan Blass / XDA-Developers)

The Galaxy Tab A7 2020 has quite a generic design with thick bezels on all sides and a single camera at the back. As per an earlier Google Play Console listing (via 91Mobiles), the Galaxy Tab A7 2020 will feature a 10.4-inch display with a resolution of 1200×2000 pixels. Under the hood, you’ll find the Snapdragon 662 SoC paired with 3GB of RAM and either 32GB or 64GB of onboard storage.

Unfortunately, there is no information on the tablet’s camera hardware or battery capacity as of now. Notably, the tablet was listed online by a Dutch retailer prior to its launch, revealing a starting price of €235 (~ $230) for the Wi-Fi only variant, while the LTE model will reportedly start at $293 (~$350). However, Samsung hasn’t revealed when its budget tablet will go official.

Lenovo Tab M10 HD takes on Amazon’s Fire tablets, but with better specs and cleaner software

Amazon’s Fire series of tablets are dirt cheap multimedia devices, but they run a heavily limited software that is Android only in the name. Today, Lenovo has launched a better alternative – the second generation Tab M10 HD – that runs a more familiar build of Android 10 without any ecosystem-locked gates, looks better, packs more powerful hardware, and is still dirt cheap.

The new Lenovo Tab M10 HD features a 10.1-inch HD (1280 x 800) display that offers up to 400 nits of peak brightness, while the audio output is handled by dual speakers with Dolby Atmos support. It is powered by the MediaTek Helio P22T processor coupled with either 2GB or 4GB of RAM and up to 64GB of onboard storage that can be expanded up to 256GB via a microSD card.

Lenovo’s budget tablet comes with a 5,000mAh battery and supports 4G connectivity as well. There’s an 8MP camera at the back and a 5MP snapper for selfies and video calls. The Lenovo Tab M10 HD starts at $130 and comes in two other variants that also bring Alexa or Google Assistant to the table, but at a small premium. The device will go on sale starting next month.

Google Images will show licensing information for photos to promote responsible usage

Google has today announced that its eponymous image search service – Google Images – will now show licensing information so that users can know how to responsibly use the photos for personal or business-related projects. The company says it is also making it easy to find licensed images by adding a “licensable” badge over photos displayed in Google Images.

When users select on a licensable content, they’ll also see a link to the licensing details of an image, terms of usage, and also the link where they can purchase/license it, if the publisher has provided those details. Moreover, users can also filter Google Images search results based on two categories – Creative Commons licenses and Commercial & other licenses.

The filter can be accessed from the new Usage Rights dropdown menu in the filters toolbar. Google says the changes have been made to clearly tell users who are the creator or copyright holders of an image. Also, if an image is found on a webpage that is not created to let users acquire the usage license, the licensor or copyrights holder can link it to a new URL from Google Images where users can acquire it.

Lenovo takes another stab at the premium Android tablet segment with Tab P11 Pro

Lenovo has today launched a new tablet called the Tab P11 Pro and is calling it ‘the most powerful and premium consumer Android tablet’ in its lineup. The latest Lenovo offering packs an 11.5-inch 2K (2560 x 1600) OLED HDR10-certified display with Dolby Vision support and what appears to be uniformly slim iPad Pro-esque bezels on all sides. There is also an in-display fingerprint sensor for authentication and face unlock as well via the dual front-facing cameras.

The device rocks the Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G processor at its heart ticking alongside up to 6 gigs of RAM and 128GB of expandable storage. There are two cameras (13MP + 5MP) at the back and a pair of 8MP snappers at the front that are positioned at the top when the device is being used in desktop mode, and can also blur the background during video calls. Lenovo says the Tab P11 Pro’s battery can last up to 15 hours on a single charge, while the four JBL-tuned speakers will handle the audio output.

There is no LTE or 5G connectivity though, but what you get is a fairly slim Android tablet made out of aluminum-alloy, packing an OLED display that costs just $500. Lenovo is also selling a folio case, a keyboard case, and a stylus that will cost you an additional $100 for all three items. The tablet will be available in November, and sounds like a well-equipped affordable alternative to the Galaxy Tab S6 duo and the iPad lineup.
