The display size will be 6.78", it will be flat, and will have ultra-narrow bezels on all four sides. OnePlus 13 The phone's camera island will not be circular anymore, and the device will have three shooters on...
Google is expected to announce the Pixel 10 series of smartphones on August 20. Today a new leak tells us that the phones' telephoto camera is getting a new feature: the ability to take macro shots.

The ultrawides will be able to focus closer than the telephotos, so you'll get a choice between using the ultrawide or the telephoto for close-up shots but it's not really a...
