When the brand OnePlus came into the market just under 30 months ago – we were promised flagship-level specs, and affordable sticker price. OnePlus, a company created by the former Oppo vice president Pete Lau released the OnePlus One – which delivered the promise of the affordable "flagship killer". However today we are seeing many other phones that claims to be cheaper than a flagship, yet perform just as good out of the box. Does the new OnePlus 3 still deliver the company’s motto – ‘Never Settle’ – to the users?

Thanks to the good folks at ASUS Malaysia we managed to get some time with the international version (so it doesn't have the standard 3-pin adapter) of the upcoming ASUS ZenWatch 3. Featuring a round face with shiny gold bezel this Android Wear based smartwatch offers gesture-driven commands and a metallic water resistant body. The most interesting feature however, is the fact that it has the ability to playback music direct from the watch.

Priced at RM699, the Samsung Gear IconX are the next generation of Samsung's wireless wearables offering standalone music listening in a pair of heart-rate monitor embedded earbuds. These smart devices not only track your fitness but also playback music while letting you connect to your phone or not. Check out our unboxing and hands-on video of the Samsung Gear IconX below and stay tuned to the full review at TechNave.com.

While the Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime has yet to be officially announced, we've received info that it has started selling here in Malaysia for RM1199. In addition, our sometimes random but mostly accurate leakster Mr. Anonymous has returned, this time with hands-on pics of the Galaxy J7 Prime.

Sleeker and more snazzy looking than before, the Samsung Gear Fit 2 still manages to fit in a 1.5-inch Super AMOLED touchscreen with built-in GPS touchscreen for RM699. We managed to get some time with the blue boxed set and promptly did an unboxing and hands-on video which you can see below. The full review is coming as we sweat it out for you TechNavers and we'll be getting our hands on some more Samsung Gears soon, so stay tuned to TechNave.com.

The 'latest' flagship killer is here at TechNave.com. OnePlus 3 is the name of the model that is purported to be the smartphone to beat all flagships. With its price of only RM 1888, this is definitely encroaching into the lower end of the flagship price range. However it doesn't mean that this is a poorly specced device. With a large 5.5-inch display, 6GB of RAM (yes, six!) and 64GB of internal storage - this is a superphone for the superuser. Check out the quick unboxing and hands-on video below.

The folks at Business Insider recently did a camera sample comparison between the Apple iPhone 7 Plus and Samsung Galaxy S7 which you can see below. Clearly, the dual rear camera on the iPhone 7 Plus brings much better quality photos compared to the iPhone 6s Plus but they found that when compared against the dual pixel camera on the Galaxy S7, the iPhone 7 Plus isn't as consistent and has autofocus issues. Granted, the new telephoto lens does help make zoom up shots more detailed.

However, because the iPhone 7 Plus automatically adjusts the exposure and lighting of each photo based on autofocused targets, each shot (even though it is taken in burst mode) can be slightly different. The Galaxy S7 also managed to catch better detailed low-light shots. As usual of the iPhone 7, colour reproduction is closer to the human eye compared to the Galaxy S7 which sometimes takes vividness to a different level.

With every new phone there's bound to be torture tests and JerryRigEverything have done just that with the Apple iPhone 7. While he does note that it seems more rigid than the previous iPhone 6s (so no bendgate) it looks like the supposedly sapphire crystal glass covered lens and home button can get scratch by picks with level 6 hardness (sapphire crystal glass are level 9 hardness), but we're thinking that it could be the pick residue rather than the glass. You can judge for yourself below:

While we Malaysians are still waiting for the arrival of the Apple iPhone 7 series, Apple has decided to drop their latest iOS 10 globally yesterday morning. iOS 10 is indeed a huge upgrade as there were no less than 5 changes according to their changelog. Without further ado, here's our first impression hands-on on the latest iOS (also, I'm an iPhone 5 user, so some extra features will be missing here).

As you already know, the Apple iPhone 7 Plus has a new dual rear camera but it functions differently from other companies like Huawei for their P9 (and P9 Plus, both have the same camera technology). But what's the difference? Are they the same? And why do they need two cameras at the back anyway? Well, that's what we're going to find out today, so we will be taking a look at the difference between the two devices' camera and how the system work, starting with Apple.
