iPhone 12, 12 Pro, and 12 Pro Max dummies shown on video, compare with older iPhones

A new video was posted by retailer Mobile Fun who has gotten their hands on a few iPhone 12 dummies. The dummies in question don’t reflect the final form of the upcoming iPhones, particularly the camera modules, but they do offer us a look into how the new iPhones will compare in size with previous models. The major change of the iPhone 12 lineup is the flattened edges that run around the perimeter of all the models. This makes them easier to hold and puts them in line with the design of the latest iPad Pro, which now features flattened edges. In size order, the iPhones shown in the...

Samsung Galaxy Note10 and Note10 Lite are both heavily discounted today

If you're into Samsung's Notes, today you're in luck, as two of them are heavily discounted in the US. First off, the Galaxy Note10 can be had for just $609.99, unlocked.

Galaxy Note20 and Note20+ will be cheaper than the Note10 duo, reports Korean media

Last year Samsung launched the Galaxy Note10 at a price of KRW 1.25 million and the Note10+ at KRW 1.5 million in South Korea. This year’s models will get a slight discount, reports Korean publication Naver - both the Galaxy Note20 and Note20+ will be KRW 0.05 million cheaper. To put it in a Western currency, that’s $40, so it’s not much. However, it goes counter to industry expectations as analysts had a forecast that the 2020 models will cost KRW 0.05 more than their predecessors, not less. The price cut is partially explained with the expectations of lower demand due to the COVID-19...
