Normally, official videos and news would come from the main company. But not Samsung Indonesia, in their official YouTube channel they have released a teaser video indicating a new Galaxy model is on the way with the #TheNextGalaxy.

Ben Wood, Chief of Research, CCS Insight recently dropped us a line on Samsung's 2016 Mobile Trends. Confirming what we've seen ourselves, smartphones have reached the stage where all smartphones are in a "sea of sameness". While innovation is few and far in between like Samsung's Galaxy Edge dual-curved display and Apple's recent 3D Touch feature, this does not mean that innovation will stop. According to CCS Insight, 1.63 billion smartphones will sell in 2016 alone. As Samsung and Apple clash, new industry players like Huawei are also on the rise. 

It's been awhile since we last heard of Meizu Pro 5 mini rumours, the last time it appeared was three months ago in some online shop and disappeared after that. However, it came back again with a leaked picture telling us that it isn't just a mere rumour. 

From the image, it seems that the Pro 5 mini will go fullmetal. It also looks like the device will have a dual LED flash just below the rear camera which is rumoured to be 20.7MP. Other than that, it's also rumoured to equip a Helio X20 chipset, 3GB RAM, 32GB internal storage (128GB space for microSD card), 4.7-inch AMOLED display with 1080p resolution, Dual SIM slot, a fingerprint scanner, Android 5.1 Lollipop inside the hood and 3050 mAh battery.

Just yesterday, Huawei released a teaser image of an unknown device that uses a stylus some say it's a hybrid laptop for the upcoming MWC 2016. This time, we got some leaked images possibly a new Huawei P9 render.

Two years ago, OPPO Find 7 was released in Malaysia and fans have been wondering when will the next OPPO flagship come. For some reason, the next OPPO Find smartphone won't be called Find 8 but Find 9 instead according to the Malaysian SIRIM certification website.
