The Redmi K80 arrives with big upgrades to performance and battery life compared to its predecessor.

One of our readers tipped us off to the fact that ZTE has uploaded certification documents to its official site for a yet-to-be-unveiled model – the ZTE Blade A35e. This includes an EU Declaration of Conformity, which shows a photo of the new phone. Based on the name, this is related to the ZTE Blade A35. However, its camera setup has a different layout. It looks like a single camera plus an LED flash. The current A35 includes some artifice – what appears to be a quad camera also has just a single lens and a flash. Anyway, we took the model number of the ZTE Blade A35e (Z2466) and...

Samsung ISOCELL's All Lenses on Prism (ALoP) is a new and better periscope design

Samsung's imaging team has come up with a new design for a folded telephoto camera module that would allow for a brighter lens (f/2.58 at 80mm) and a thinner overall footprint.
