Watch the ZTE nubia X with its two screens get tortured on video

ZTE sub-brand nubia announced the intriguing X at the end of October - a device with two screens and two fingerprint sensors. It's one of those that solves the issue of where to put the selfie camera if there's no bezel space for it by simply removing it altogether. Instead, you get a secondary screen on the back which you can use to shoot selfies with the main sensors. Win-win? nubia's flagship smartphone is now the latest to be put through YouTube channel JerryRigEverything's traditional torture test. If you've ever seen one of these before, you already know what to expect: it will be...

Our Honor Magic 2 video review is up

Xiaomi beat Honor to the full screen slider game by a few days back in October when it announced the Mi Mix 3 ahead of the Honor Magic 2. And yet Honor strikes back with a much cooler name - Magic is Magic, after all. The two devices seem to share the exact same display panel, which is partly to thank for both of them sporting a near bezel-less look. For real this time. We're getting ever closer to the dream of no bezels at all, and the Honor Magic 2 takes us one step further on that road. The phone comes with top notch specs, headlined by the Kirin 980 chipset, currently Huawei...

Coolpad announces the Cool Play 8 with 6.2-inch notched display

Coolpad announced the Play 7C successor in China, called the Cool Play 8. The device is a decidedly low-end affair and sports an aluminum body and a rather big 6.2-inch display with a wide notch. And despite its standing, the handset surprises with a 1080 x 2246 resolution IPS display. The notch houses only the front-facing camera and the usual sensors such as the proximity and ambient. MediaTek's MT6750 octa-core chipset sits behind the wheel with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal memory. If that's not enough, the phone can hold a microSD card as well. On the back, we find the...

Moto G7 Play gets certified at EEC

Motorola is launching its G7 series anytime soon, if we can trust numerous certification listings, including FCC. There will be at least three phones, with one rumor suggesting even four - Moto G7, Moto G7 Plus, Moto G7 Power, and Moto G7 Play. The last one will be the more affordable and the least powerful and was just certified with the Eurasian Economic Commission.

We already saw the device in real photos at the FCC - it will have USB-C, audio jack, microSD...
