Have you eagerly been waiting for Fortnite  next season? Well, Fortnite Season 10 – it’s being officially called Season X (read ex) is here now and you should get ready to take a leap through time. The concept for this season is ‘Out of Time’ and it sees the Zero Point become volatile, giving you access to past locations that have now been nixed and newer additions as well. One of the most interesting additions to this season in Fortnite comes in the form of the Titanfall-like B.R.U.T.E mech suits. Yes, the game introduces this as a new player vehicle, which requires two players to operate and jump into combat to annihilate enemies. Your mech suits are dropped on the map at the beginning of the game. You can board one to gain access to a shotgun, missile launcher and the ability to stomp enemies. As I discussed above, Fortnite is carrying forward the concept of rifts to portray that the whole island is volatile. You now have to drop into the game, pass through rifts t...

Never one to shy away from experimenting, Oppo continues to innovate with the Oppo Reno by adding a sliding "shark fin" sliding mechanism on top that houses the selfie camera and rear flash. Oppo is releasing two versions of the Reno in the UAE and Saudi Arabia - the first is the standard version that we are looking at today and the other is the 10x Zoom version with a zoom range that rivals Huawei's P30 Pro. While the Reno is here, the 10x Zoom version will be available in "about a month's time." The Oppo Reno features a 6.4-inch Full HD+ OLED display, Snapdragon 710 chipset, 6GB/8GB RAM, 128GB/256GB of storage, 3,765mAh battery and an in-display optical fingerprint scanner. Design and display Like most flagship phones, the Oppo Reno has a symmetrical design with glass on the two sides and a metal frame surrounding the unit. While a glass back feels premium, it's very much on the slippery side. The phone is a bit weighty and chunky and w...

Google has now restricted Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei from using Android, cutting off the company’s license for the operating system. This, according to reports from The Verge, and Reuters, is an action taken by Google based on the US Commerce Department’s decision to place Huawei on the ‘Entity List’ which is a list of companies that aren’t allowed to buy technology from US companies without government approval. Commenting on the matter, a Google spokesperson said to The Verge,  “We are complying with the order and reviewing the implications.”H owever, this change won’t immediately impact users using existing Huawei phones.   After Google restricted Huawei’s use of Android for its future smartphones yesterday, effectively cutting off Huawei from everything Google other than the Android Open Source Project, new reports from Chinese media have come out with the claim that Huawei’s in-house operating system for its smartphones will reportedl...

With the 7 Pro, OnePlus is declaring that it’s no longer just a middle-weight boxer. It wants to challenge Apple and Samsung in the heavyweight class. It has created a phone that — on paper, at least — has certainly earned a chance to take on the champions. Let’s get ready to rumble. One  of the things that distinguishes the top-flight, expensive phones from regular phones is overall build quality. The phone has to  feel  like it deserves to cost as much as it does. The 7 Pro does, though perhaps because it borrows much of its basic design from Samsung’s Galaxy phones. The glass on the front and back curves in toward a metal rail that runs all around the frame. Where OnePlus (barely) differentiates itself is the back of the phone. It has a matte finish and iridescent colors, plus a vertical array of cameras.   The thing that you’ll likely show off to your friends is the motorized pop-up selfie camera. It’s a neat trick and a relative rarity in the...
