This week’s big news came out of Qualcomm’s Tech Summit in Hawaii, with the announcement of the Snapdragon 865 and Snapdragon 765 processors. Later in the week, Qualcomm also announced affordable 4G laptop and mixed reality chips, which could make their way into Chromebooks in the near future.
Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S11 lineup is closer than ever, and it looks to be packing some impressive camera tech. The camera bump design on the S11 is somewhat controversial, but other phones don’t do much better. Plus, there are even more rumors swirling about a Galaxy Note 10 Lite.
On the review side, this week we had a look at the Nokia 800 Tough, the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon, and the Skyroam Solis X.
