Here's the first Huawei Pura 80 Ultra teardown
The Huawei Pura 80 Ultra was unveiled last week, and we can already peek inside it, thanks to Youtuber Yang Changshun.
He manages to tear down the Pura 80 Ultra in a video spanning 14 minutes (the process actually took about an hour). The procedure is fascinating in and of itself, but we're all here to see the moving two-lens camera module sitting over a single 1/1.28-inch sensor.
Changshun needed to cut open the dual-zoom camera module to get a peek inside. The frames below are from a microscope documenting the process.
The dual zoom module moves an 83mm f/2.4 (3.7x) lens and a 212mm f/3.6 (9.4x) lens on top of the largest zoom sensor in a phone - the mid-tele covering the full 50MP imager and the telephoto end covering 12.5MP of it. The lenses move on top of a motorized mechanism comprised of some 140 components. It's truly impressive stuff here by Huawei.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7's main competitor is set to arrive this month
The Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7won't be coming until July, which is giving companies like Xiaomi the opportunity to steal Samsung's show. The Mix Flip 2 will directly compete with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 , but its main advantage is that it's coming slightly earlier than Samsung's foldable has just confirmed that Mix Flip 2 will be introduced in June. The Chinese giant didn't say when exactly the announcement will happen, but the teaser mentions the event will happen this month. Now, what might save the Galaxy Z Flip 7 from a fierce competition is the fact that the Mix Flip 2 will only be launched in China this month. A global release will surely follow, but that might not happen before Samsung introduces the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in July. That said, let's briefly take a look at Mix Flip 2's rumored specs and decide whether or not this is a worthy Galaxy Z Flip 7 competitor. First off, Xiaomi's upcoming foldable is going to use Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, this is the same chip that will power the Galaxy Z Flip 7 . Xiaomi Mix Flip 2 teaser | Image credit: Xiaomi As far as the screen goes, both Mix Flip 2 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 are said to feature 6.85-inch external displays. The former's panel features 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. One area where Xiaomi's smartphone has the upper hand is the battery. The upcoming Mix Flip 2 is rumored to pack a large 5,100 mAh battery with support for 67W wired and 50W wireless charging, while the Galaxy Z Flip 7 supposedly has a much smaller 4,200 mAh battery with support for 25W wired and 15W wireless charging. The Mix Flip 2 is also said to feature a dual-camera system that includes a 50-megapixel main sensor and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera. We've also learned that Xiaomi's foldable will be IPX8 rated for water resistance. These are all the details we have about Xiaomi's next foldable, but we suspect the Chinese company will start revealing some of the phone's main highlights in the weeks leading up to its announcement.

Google said to improve the two biometric sensors on the Pixel 10 series
Google continued putting optical fingerprint sensors on the Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 lines, although they were much improved compared to the components found on the Pixel 6 series. Finally, last year Google made the change that everyone was hoping for and used an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor on the Pixel 9 line. These are faster and more reliable although they are also more expensive. Now, with the Pixel 10 series coming soon, Google is reportedly looking to improve the Pixel's fingerprint sensor once again. A fresh report says that the Pixel 10's ultrasonic fingerprint sensor will be improved compared to the one on the Pixel 9 line. One improvement mentioned in the report says that the new ultrasonic sensor will be faster dropping the time between the user placing his finger on the display, and the phone unlocking. Saving valuable seconds like this is sure to be important to Pixel 10 users. Let's go over the differences between the two different fingerprint sensors. The optical sensor uses light to read the unique patterns in a fingerprint. With the ultrasonic sensor, ultrasonic soundwaves are used to determine whether two fingerprints match. Additionally, the Pixel 10 's biometric face recognition system known as Face Unlock, will remain the same and continue to be as secure as it has been since its debut on the Pixel 8 . The Face Unlock system used since the Pixel 8 is secure enough to be used to unlock your Pixel, access your banking apps, and more. The platform doesn't use 3D mapping like Face ID and the Pixel 4 but does work with algorithms to accurately determine whether a face is real image or a photograph of a fingerprint. Both the Pixel 9 and 10 feature a Dual Pixel Autofocus front-facing camera that can help collect enough data to make sure that the aforementioned algorithms are working correctly. Additionally, Face Unlock does not use the infrared sensors that Face ID has that allow it to work in the dark. Instead, it uses the regular front-facing camera sensors which means that it doesn't work in the dark. The Pixel 10 , Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and the Pixel 10 Fold are expected to be introduced August 20th and released on August 28th. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!
