LG G9 leaked renders surfaced

We're getting our first glimpse at LG's upcoming flagship, the LG G9 ThinQ. It isn't clear what gimmick the phone might come with, but leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer (@OnLeaks on Twitter) gave us our first look at the smartphone. The LG G9 looks to have either a 6.7- or 6.9-inch screen with an in-display fingerprint sensor and a small notch at the top center for the selfie camera. The rear sports four cameras with dual flash, but it isn't known what camera sensors it comes with. The smartphone also looks to have a 3.5mm headphone jack (a rarity in flagships these days) and a USB-C port. The SIM card slot is at the top of the phone, while the power and volume buttons are on the left. The LG G9 will also reportedly get a Google Assistant button on the right side of the handset. This may or may not be the final design of LG's upcoming flagship. We're expecting to see the smartphone at MWC 2020 if we follow the LG G8's launch.

Leaked Pixel 4a renders show hole-punch display

For those who don't like the Google Pixel 4's design, you might find these leaked renders of the Pixel 4a more amenable. Steve Hemmerstoffer (@OnLeaks on Twitter) and 91mobiles released the rumoured design of the Pixel 4a. The entry-level Pixel gets rid of the intrusive top bezel and replaces it with a punch-hole cutout for the selfie camera. The phone looks to have a flat display that's either 5.7 or 5.8-inches. What this design tells us is that it's ditching Project Soli-based Motion Sense gesture control as well as face unlock.

Leaked Samsung Galaxy S11+ renders show phone design, big camera array

If the leaked renders of the Samsung Galaxy S11+ is accurate, then we're getting a large, almost domino-like camera setup at the back of the phone. Steve Hemmerstoffer (@OnLeaks) shared the renders of Samsung's upcoming flagship, and what immediately catches our eye is the big, black camera array at the top left of the device. It reminds us of the Pixel 4, but just stretched to look more like a domino piece. 

The phone is expected to have a five-camera setup, but details on these are scarce. Rumour has it the Galaxy S11+ will feature a 5x optical zoom with a 108-megapixel primary sensor. It's expected to get telephoto, ultra-wide, and time-of-flight lenses, too.

Another leaked render shows off possible triple-lens setup for the 2019 iPhone

We’ve already seen one interpretation of the triple-lens setup for the next iPhone. Now, Steve Hemmerstoffer (a.k.a. OnLeaks) is back to share another one. He teamed up again with Indian site CompareRaja to show one with a horizontal setup. It has the three lenses in the middle with the flash located somewhere between the lenses. It has this sort of cyclops feel to it. In front, there seems to be a slimmed down notch that houses the front-facing camera and TrueDepth system. You get a mic at the bottom with the volume buttons on the left and power button to the right. Hemmerstoffer and CompareRaja claim these are “100% legit prototypes” but that the phones are still in the EVT stage or Engineering Validation Test with Apple still deciding on the design.

According to current rumours, only the next-gen replacement of the iPhone XS Max will be getting the triple-camera setup, while the XS and XR will retain a dual-lens setup. For now, we haven’t heard much about these claims of a triple camera setup, but you’ll definitely hear more from us whether or not this plan does happen.
