Camera bump and notch are perhaps the worst thing to happen in smartphone design. While we see no end to the camera bump trend, there is hope for a notch-free world. It is heartening that everyone else, except for Apple, is trying their best to eliminate the notch. ASUS ZenFone 6 is one of the latest entrants to join the on-going notch-less revolution.

Well, the much rumored “more affordable” version of the Pixel phone, Pixel 3a, has been made official and it might just appeal to notch-haters because, it ain’t got one. But be warned though.

Rendered Images And Video Of Motorola Razr Folding Phone
We do not know who originated these renders of the supposed Motorola Razr Folding Phone that Motorola is rumored to be introducing.

Renders Of iPhone XI Confirms Triple Camera, “Glass Camera Bump”
New iPhone or not, it does not excite me anymore. If there’s no breakthrough in technology and/or design, it is no different from the horde of Android devices out there. Don’t tell me how gorgeous the phone is or the exquisite materials because, at the end of the day, 9 out of 10 people would shove it into a case, hiding it beauty. Fact.
