In leaning on seven days of news and headlines around the world of Android, this week's Android circuit includes the new Galaxy Note S10e, a review of the S10 5G, the latest Pixel 4 leak, a preview of the Huawei P30 Pro, the latest OnePlus 7 features and the new Nokia X71.
Android Circuit is here to remind you of some of the many things that have happened around Android over the last week (and you can find the weekly summary of Apple news here).
Budget Galaxy Note 10e appears
The Galaxy S10 and S10 + this year have been joined by the Galaxy S10e, an entry-level in the high-end range and a direct competitor of the iPhone XR. It now appears that this strategy will be reflected in Samsung's phablet range, with an entry-level rating being prepared for publication. & Nbsp;Gordon Kelly of Forbes reports:
… The size of the screen will be reduced with Samsung supply parts for each model separately. This makes sense, since the Galaxy S10e misses the built-in ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and triple camera bays of the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus, so alternative components are needed.
That said, you should be excited about the fact that the Galaxy S10e meets its most expensive criteria: performance, main front and rear cameras and first-rate OLED display (the glasses are slightly larger). I maintain that the Galaxy S10e is the best Galaxy S10 model for most buyers and that a Galaxy Note 10e is likely to provide the same.
Galaxy S10 5G Reviews
As expected, the Galaxy S10's 5G version follows the design of existing S10 handsets, including the punch hole for the selfie camera. The 5G version offers the possibility to access the fastest networks, but there is a bad surprise in the mix. Samsung has removed the microSD card to make room for the larger antenna. UnderKG YouTube Review look at this question and more!
Pixel Leak 4
The Pixel 4, although not announced, is expected later this year, but it is always nice to read that Google engineers have suggested that this was the case. The last mention of Pixel 4 is in the engineering comments of the Android Open Source Project Code of a Google employee:
The plan was to first deploy this on Pixel 3 and make sure everything really works. Then go to Pixel 4 and so on. If I had a Pixel 4 camera, I probably would not have been bothered by version 4.9.
Kyle Bradshaw takes a closer look at what's going on here:
This comment was left by a Google employee. So we know that this is not just speculation on the part of a third party. This confirms very clearly that the Pixel 4 is not only in development, but could already be in the hands of some developers (although it is not this particular developer).
The code change itself tells us very little about the future device, because it concerns the changes made to the Linux kernel used by Android. The rest of the conversation indicates that a hotfix is being developed for a problem experienced by Google's "KASAN" memory error detection tool.
Huawei P30 Pro Review
With its long battery life and impressive camera, the Huawei P30 Pro launches the title of the best flagship smartphone on the market. Some choices are curious (such as using a 1080p display), but the real benefit is the camera. & Nbsp;Andrew Williams takes a closer look:
The excellent optical stabilization facilitates the shooting of 50 times the images by hand, at least in the light of day. Switching between the four main views (x0.6, x1, x5, x10) is fast and bug-free. And given its relatively low-end hardware, the Huawei P30 Pro's 5x zoom camera takes beautiful pictures.
The ultra-wide is excellent too. Its purpose is clear, the images are detailed and even at the angles, the optical distortion is relatively minor. It also automatically compensates for vignetting of the lens. As in the Mate 20 Pro, the wide has an autofocus and can be used for macro photography. The Samsung Galaxy S10 + wide has a fixed focal length, which makes it much less versatile.

Another leak argues in favor of OnePlus 7
More potential confirmation on the design of the future OnePlus 7 thanks to another case leak. Everything corresponds to the current expectations, as I reported earlier this week:
The details in these images save those already evoked around the OnePlus 7. The case thus presents a cutout for the contextual selfie camera (illustrated by the absence of cut-out in the rendered image of the handset). Meanwhile, the extended cutout at the back hosts the triple-lens camera, the flash and the sensors.
OnePlus 7 visualization also includes the volume buttons, the power button and the three-way alert slider to differentiate the handset. It also reflects the choices made in the OnePlus 6T to remove the 3.5mm headphone jack. Cable technology no longer exists, bluetooth or audio on USB-C is the way to go.
And finally…
With the Nokia 9 PureView garnering reviews, the latest Nokia HMD handset has arrived. The Nokia X71 launched in Taiwan is another solid smartphone. While the Nokia 9 pushes the boundaries of the image, the X71 seems to be the big power workhorse of the 2019 family. Vlad Savov's reports:
…[The X71 is] built around a Snapdragon 660 processor running Android 9 Pie, accompanied by 6GB of RAM, 128GB of expandable storage, a battery of 3500mAh, a headphone jack and d & # 39; 39, a triple camera system at the rear with Zeiss certified lenses. The front LCD display measures 6.39 inches with a 19.3: 9 aspect ratio and FHD + resolution.
In simple terms, this is a beautiful mid-range phone from a company that wants to compete in the category just below the flagship Android products like Samsung and Huawei.
More at the edge. & nbsp; While the X71 should be limited to China and Taiwan, expect that a very similar device will arrive in the west of the country, possibly like the Nokia 8.1 Plus.
