It is not always easy distinguishing one mid-range vivo smartphone from another. Today, the vivo Y93 arrived in India with a Helio P22 chipset and a fingerprint scanner on the back. This is not the original vivo Y93, launched on November 1 – this is the body of vivo Y95 with the soul of the vivo Y93s.

The Indian version of vivo Y93 has a 6.22” LCD screen with HD+ resolution and 19:9 ratio. There is a waterdrop notch on the top holding an 8 MP shooter with an f/1.8 lens. The main camera setup has a 13 MP f/2.2 module and a secondary 2 MP depth sensor with an f/2.4 aperture. The phone has 4 GB RAM and 32 GB storage.

The biggest reason to get the vivo Y93 is the battery – it comes with a 4,030 mAh power cell, dual SIM slot, and VoLTE. Sure there is the older micro USB port, but at least vivo is staying loyal to the 3.5 mm audio jack. OS is Android Oreo with Funtouch 4.5 on top. Although the device is already listed at vivo’s Indian e-store, price and availability is yet to be revealed.

Samsung Galaxy S10 Triple Camera Setup Details Tipped, Side-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner Expected

Samsung Galaxy S10 Triple Camera Setup Details Tipped, Side-Mounted Fingerprint Scanner Expected

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Samsung Galaxy S10 premium variant to sport three lenses at the back
  • It will sport 12MP main lens, and 16MP super-wide-angle lens
  • The entry-level variant may sport a side-mounted fingerprint scanner

Samsung is expected to launch three variants of the Galaxy S10 next year, and the unveil is largely expected at MWC 2019. The most premium variant is said to sport a triple camera setup, and today’s fresh leak corroborates that claim while also revealing more details on the camera. Furthermore, the premium and the mid-variant are expected to sport an in-display fingerprint scanner, while the entry-level variant is expected to sport a fingerprint sensor mounted on the side, if recent leaks are to be believed.

German site AllAboutSamsung reports that the company is expected to launch a triple camera setup on the most premium Samsung Galaxy S10 (Beyond 2). The main camera will be at 12-megapixel with f/1.5 to f/2.4 variable aperture, a 16-megapixel super-wide-angle lens (123 degrees) at f/1.9 aperture, and a zoom lens with 13-megapixel sensor and f/2.4 aperture. The main camera is expected to be in the middle, the zoom lens will sit to its left, while the super-wide-angle lens will sit to its right. The report states that the wide-angle lens will not come with autofocus or OIS.

The two other variants of the Samsung Galaxy S10 (Beyond 0 and Beyond 1) will come with a dual camera setup – one with a 12-megapixel main lens with variable aperture (f/1.5 to f/2.4), and another super-wide-angle lens at 16-megapixel with f/1.9 aperture.

A separate report from The Bell suggests that while the premium two variants Beyond 1 and Beyond 2 will sport in-display fingerprint scanner, the Beyond 0 device, which is expected to be the cheapest of the lot, will sport a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. The report also states that Beyond 1 and Beyond 2 are successors of the Samsung Galaxy S9 and Samsung Galaxy S9+, while the Beyond 0 device is a new entrant with trimmed down features and a relatively cheaper price tag.

In any case, we recommend you take all leaks with a pinch of salt, as nothing is official as of yet, and the Galaxy S10 official launch is too far away. Recent reports suggest that the Samsung Galaxy S10 will replace the iris scanner for in-display fingerprint scanner, and introduce 3D Face Unlock as well, as an alternate authentication method.
