Samsung Galaxy S Light Luxury now Official

The Galaxy S Light Luxury was just announced in China packing very modest specs, the device is pretty much a "lite" variant of the Galaxy S8. The 5.8' screen from the S8 makes a return keeping the same dimensions as its bigger brother. The Light S features the same Super AMOLED panel with 1,080 x 2,220 px resolution (18.5:9). The phone has a single camera on the back - 16 MP sensor and an f/1.7 aperture. It can record 4K video at 30 fps, but OIS is absent (surprisingly). The selfie camera has an 8 MP sensor with an f/1.7 aperture. The Snapdragon 660 chipset inside the Galaxy S Light Luxury should offer similar CPU performance to the Galaxy S8's 835. It does have 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. Given the Galaxy S Light Luxury's size, it shouldn’t be a surprise that there’s a 3,000 mAh battery – the same capacity as the Galaxy S8.

Facial Unlock feature to come with the updated OnePlus 5

OnePlus has decided to give the facial unlock feature to come as an update to the OnePlus 5. Seeing that the tech received a generally accepted view after the iPhone X was released.  This was decided since OnePlus discovered that their debut phone of the year, the OnePlus 5T, does not use any additional hardware functionality for the Face Unlock feature.

The co-founder of OnePlus, Carl Pei, in a tweet on Christmas Eve affirmed that there will be an update coming up but he gave no specific time frame. Also, the Android Oreo will be coming to the OnePlus 5, so all OnePlus 5 users are advised to keep tabs with the OnePlus Forum over the Oreo Update. It is rumoured to come with better camera features and launcher.
