In a world where smartphone brands are increasingly saturated over the years, we have seen a lot of great innovations and unfortunate brands that went under the radar. However, I think it’s also safe to say that we are also getting a bit bored (or annoyed, if I might add) of seeing the repeated things of what phone companies are doing. Here are our top 5 list of what smartphone manufacturers should stop doing if they want to keep our attention.

The LG G6 has been officially announced with a 5.7-inch FullVision display with rounded corners in a body normally taken by a 5.2-inch display smartphone. It also packs in dual wide angle rear camera setup somewhat different from the LG V20, capable of recording in 4K video with smooth stabilization and taking square shots so you can take pictures while holding the phone upright. Other new additions to the LG G6 include IP68 water and dust resistance and no more modular parts unlike the previous LG G5. We don't expect the LG G6 to arrive in Malaysia any time soon though but there wasn't any pricing or release date information revealed either.

While LG continues to give us some sneak peeks of what the G6 is capable of, we got a new image has been leaked in Weibo and it was paired up against the G5, the only question is - does this image look legit?

A photo, allegedly that of the final retail model of the LG G6 leaked online recently. The back of the phone had an obvious "G6" label, and features a shiny black back, indicating possibly a glass build, or even a Jet Black finish. The rear fingerprint scanner and dual-camera setup looks strikingly similar to the ones seen on the LG V20 as well as last year's LG G5.

Just a few hours ago, a U.K. Consumers' Association magazine called Which? made a survey about smartphones battery life and has concluded that the Apple iPhone 7 scores the lowest battery life, it was put against other popular smartphones such as the HTC 10, Samsung Galaxy S7 and LG G5.

Sorry TechNavers, last week due to weekend events and issues we could not foresee, I couldn't get the Weekly TechNave out. The good news is that now we have 2 weeks of tech news and events for this week's Weekly TechNave.

Internationally, the Xiaomi Mi 5S and Mi 5S Plus got launched along with the TCL 950 and Blackberry will not be designing smartphones anymore. Samsung also officially announced their Galaxy A8 (2016). The Malaysian prices for the Apple iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus got "officially" leaked, so check out our compilation page to register your interest for the telco of your choice.

If you are looking for a flagship phone – consider the LG G5. The specs on this phone are very comparable to other flagships, especially with its dual cameras. Plus – it is now available in Malaysia for only RM 2699.

Is not even half a year yet for the Samsung Galaxy S7 series and we already starting to read rumours on the next model Galaxy S8, word has it now that the next flagship could feature dual lens camera and a 4K resolution display.

The LG G5 SE was recently spotted on the official in LG Russia website. Compared to the LG G5, this new LG G5 SE seems to have three things changed under its hood. This includes a Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 instead of the 820, 3GB of RAM instead of 4GB, and no 4G LTE support but rather just 3G (even though the Snapdragon 652 SoC supposedly comes with an integrated LTE X8 modem).

There's word that LG trademarked "LG G5 SE" last week, whatever that means, it actually seem like a move to follow Apple's iPhone SE strategy and making the smartphone smaller. Well, it turns out to be quite true as a packaging of L5 quick cover case for the LG G5 and G5 SE is real.
