On today’s Pocketnow Daily, we talk about the upcoming Google Pixel 6 Pro specs, the new Samsung Galaxy Note, and more.
First, well we have Samsung announcing their new 200 megapixel ISOCELL sensor and all of its capabilities. Links to all that in the description. Thing is, it’s usually at this time that we hear about the sensors for the next Galaxy S, so just keep that article in mind for the future. Now if you thought this was the whole collaboration we heard about with Olympus, actually no. SamMobile claims this project took a back seat, and maybe indefinitely. Maybe Samsung realized that it didn’t really need to pay for branding on its already great photos. We’ll see how that evolves. But, moving on to official news, let’s talk Microsoft! The company had their Surface Event today where we got a ton of hardware and pleasant surprises. We have a full list of everything we got and dedicated articles at Pocketnow.com but, for the sake of brevity let’s focus on the Surface Duo 2 which stole most of the show.. After the Surface Duo flopped last year due the dumpster fire it was, it looks like Microsoft heard loud and clear because this one in paper seems great. It features two 5.8-inch PixelSense Fusion Displays that extend to an 8.3-inch Canvas. It’s powered by the Snapdragon 888 5G,8 Gigs of RAM, up to half a terabyte a storage and a 4449 mAh battery that supports 23W charging. I know, it sounds kind of small for a phone with 2 displays but Microsoft is claiming you can get up to 15 and a half hours of video playback.
