As we get closer to 12 April, it will be the day when HTC will unveil the HTC 10 to the world via online. More and more leaks are scattering around the internet including the rumoured specs and body, along with some new information on the price leak and some more image body shots.

Back in the past, the Xiaomi Mi2 was considered one of the best Xiaomi phones during 2012-2013, and rumours has it that Xiaomi is planning to go back to the 4.3-incher after Apple announced the iPhone SE. 

While the Samsung Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge are both water and dust resistant, even to the point of surviving being frozen, neither of them are shock resistant. This is mostly due to the glass front and back on both phones but leaks have seemingly confirmed that Samsung are making a rugged military grade (shock resistant) Galaxy S7 Active smartphone. No news on tech specs, Malaysia release date or pricing details but we don't expect the Galaxy S7 Active to arrive in Malaysia anytime soon, considering that Samsung Malaysia only brought in the Galaxy S7 edge.
