Don't expect to be blown away

Images of Sony’s upcoming Xperia L3 have been leaked online, along with specs and some clues as to the device’s features.

The renders and information, courtesy of WinFuture, show each side of the phone as well as some angle shots. They show the device’s ports, including a 3.5mm headphone jack and USB-C port, and some of the other features the phone has — and they also suggest a couple of omissions.  
  • MWC 2019 will be the biggest event of the year for smartphones.
  • Which upcoming phones will use 5G?
  • The Samsung Galaxy X is one of a new wave of foldable phones.
According to the leak the device has a 5.7-inch 1440 x 720 LCD screen, which is an improvement over the Xperia L2’s 5.5-inch LCD, although that had the same resolution. 
One apparent inclusion is a slot for microSD cards, and there are also speaker perforations at the top and bottom of the device. There’s no rear fingerprint sensor — instead the scanner is on the side of the device, between the volume and power buttons, and rather than a notch there’s a substantial bezel on the top and bottom of the screen. 
The front camera is just to the left of a central speaker in the top bezel, while round the back the dual-lens main cameras are on the upper-left side. According to the leak the front camera is 8MP, and the two rear lenses are 13MP and 2MP – the main difference between the Xperia L3 and the L2 is that 2MP camera, which supposedly is for capturing depth effects.
The real weakness of the device, judging by the leak, is the specs. Supposedly it’ll have 3GB RAM and 32GB internal memory, and will only run Android 8.1 on release. If the handset does come with a 3,300mAh battery as suggested that’ll go some way to making up for those shortcoming, but those are still pretty disappointing internals – in fact they’re identical to the Xperia L2’s.

The design of the handset is fairly minimalist, and it doesn’t seem to have all the features and functions of a top-range device – indeed, according to WinFuture the device will launch for €199, which converts to around $220, £175 or AU$315, so it’s clearly a budget device.
If this leak is accurate, then between the basic-looking design and identical specs to the previous device we’re not exactly blown away by the Xperia L3 – although it is meant to be a budget device, and of course these specs and renders aren’t necessarily the real deal. It’s possible we’ll find out more about the device at MWC 2019 when many new phones get announced and launched.

Honor 10 Lite review

Introduction The Honor 10 Lite is the latest addition to the brand's mid-range lineup and it hopes to ride on the success of the original Honor 10. So how did Honor go about making a Lite version of a phone, which is already somewhat of a Lite version of the flagship Huawei P20? Well, for one, the feature set has been trimmed across the board starting from the chipset, going through the camera and ending with the connectivity set. But that doesn't mean this is a bad phone. The Honor 10 Lite is still an embodiment of the great value phones we've come to know the brand for. For about 30% lower price tag than the original Honor 10, the 10 Lite has the same size battery, a larger screen with a smaller notch, the memory is now expandable via a microSD slot and right from the get-go it comes out with the latest Android 9 Pie. In comparison, the Honor 10 still hasn't got an update to Pie yet. Honor 10 Lite specs: Body: 154.8 x 73.6 x 8mm, 162 grams, plastic...

Apex Legends: characters, trailers and news

Image credit: Electronic Arts/Respawn Entertainment EA surprised many with the  sudden announcement of Apex Legends , a new free-to-play battle royale shooter that sees the publisher going toe-to-toe with genre mammoths PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and  Fortnite Battle Royale . Advertisement Developed by Respawn Entertainment and set in the Titanfall universe, Apex Legends is a squad-based battle royale shooter where teams of three go up against 57 other players to try to gather loot and be the last person (or squad) standing. However, unlike Fortnite and PUBG, Apex Legends sees players take on one of eight classes, each represented by a unique character. (Imagine Fortnite mixed with Overwatch and you’ll be on the right track.)  Whether that sounds like your kind of gaming or not, it's clear Apex Legends is going from strength to strength. It  managed to reach a million players  in its first eight hours and it's now am...

Alternatives, pros and cons, verdict Huawei Mate 20 X specification User opinions and reviews Review comments (73) Introduction Arriving a few months after the rest of the Mate 20 series phones, but considered by many as the best phone in the family, the Mate 20 X is finally stepping in by offering all the screen real estate you could possibly want in a phone. Better late than never, as the old saying goes. The Mate 20 X was among the most interesting Mate 20 phones, but it never really saw the light of day outside of a few Southeast Asian countries. Not until recently, that is. The Mate 20 X has now launched in a few European markets and while the chances are that the P30 is already around the corner, the Mate 20 X has niche of its ow...
