CAD Renders Show off the Sony Xperia L2, Xperia XA2 and Xperia XA2 Ultra

Sony’s product portfolio includes multiple smartphones across mid-range and flagship price brackets. Last year, the company launched several mid-range phones, including the Xperia L1, the Xperia XA1 and the Xperia XA1 Ultra. Rumors abound suggest the successors to these devices may launch soon, and on Tuesday, @OnLeaks published CAD renders of the Sony Xperia L2, the Xperia XA2 and the Xperia XA2 Ultra in collaboration with Compare Raja and Tiger Mobiles.

The renders show that the Xperia L2 will have a 5.5-inch display with a 16:9 aspect ratio, and measure 149.9 x 78.4 x 9.9mm. (The screen resolution hasn’t been revealed yet, but it’s safe to say it’ll be at least HD, or 1280 x 720.) The handset may have an octa-core Snapdragon 630 system-on-chip paired with 4GB of RAM, and it’ll reportedly ship with Android Nougat on board.

In terms of aesthetics, the Xperia L2 will feature Sony’s traditional design with respect to the front, but the fingerprint sensor is said to be on back instead of on the side, which is a first for a Sony smartphone. It’ll have a single rear camera, and it could be made official at the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show.

Moving onto the rumored Xperia XA lineup, it’s worth noting that the first XA phone was released in 2016, with the Xperia XA1 following suit in 2017. The Xperia XA2 Ultra will be the successor to the Xperia XA1 Ultra, and it’ll reportedly retain the 6-inch display size with a 16:9 aspect ratio instead of moving to an 18:9 (2:1) aspect ratio.

The Xperia XA2 Ultra is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 630. It’s said to have 4GB of RAM paired with 64GB of internal storage, and a microSD card slot seems likely. But the really interesting thing about the Xperia XA2 is that it’ll have dual front cameras, if the CAD renders are any indication. (The resolution of the front and rear cameras is currently unknown.)

The Xperia XA2, on the other hand, will be a much smaller device — it’s expected to have a 5-inch display, with dimensions of (141.6 x 70.4 x 9.6mm). It’s also expected to pack the same chipset as the Xperia XA2 Ultra, but the details about the RAM and storage aren’t known yet.

Right now, there isn’t any information regarding the pricing and release dates of the Xperia XA2 models. However, the report mentions that the launch could be as soon as February. We expect to learn more about Sony’s 2018 smartphone lineup at CES 2018.

Google Camera Port with Portrait Mode now works on Samsung Galaxy S7, S8, and Note 8 (Exynos) Popular ports of the Pixel 2’s Google Camera bring Google’s post-processing technologies to a wide range of high-end devices. It took a few iterations, but the most recent releases support lens blur, bokeh adjustment, and high-resolution video recording modes on phones such as the OnePlus 3 , the Samsung Galaxy S8 , and the LG V30 . This week, XDA Senior Member miniuser123  fixed a niggling issue with Exynos-based devices: Portrait mode. His modified Google Camera app gets portrait mode — the camera effect that blurs out your selfie’s background and brings your face into focus — to smartphones with Samsung’s in-house Exynos processors, which include the international editions of the Galaxy S7 , S8, and Note 8 . With the app installed and a few tweaks applied in the Settings menu, it’s seamless — albeit a bit slower than devices with Qualcomm Snapdragon system-on-chips. And for now, it onl

Samsung Bixby Will Soon be Able to Count Calories in Food Applications such as  MyFitnessPal and other calorie counters help people monitor what eat throughout the day, which makes it easier to see how many calories they have left in their daily allotment. But measuring food portions on the go can be tough, which is why Samsung’s updating is Bixby assistant with the ability to estimate calories from photos of food. At the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show, Samsung’s demoing Bixby’s calorie-counting feature to attendees. It’s still in development right now, and occasionally has trouble identifying foodstuff — especially when there are multiple items on a single plate. But the company showed that it can tell the difference between dishes like a margarita pizza and a steak. Since Bixby isn’t using a special sensor to analyze nutritional content, there’s a bit of a variance in the actual calorie count versus what’s reported, and Samsung’s using “generic data” for food items. Still, it’s fas

Motorola Releases Android Oreo Kernel Sources for the Moto Z2 Force When it comes to releasing kernel sources, some manufacturers have a better track record than others. Android’s use of the GPLv2 license requires that all sources be released in a timely manner, but we continue to see violations . They’re bad for the affected devices because they hinder development, but they also harm Android and the open source community’s integrity,  which is why we’ve requested multiple OEMs to comply with the GPL and release kernel sources in the past. Motorola, which is owned by Lenovo, generally releases kernel sources for its devices on time — but  the company’s occasionally slipped . The Moto Z2 Force ‘s sources were released in September, two months after its launch. It’s the company’s newest flagship phone, and the Verizon and T-Mobile variants of the device recently received an update to Android 8.0 Oreo. That necessitated another release of kernel sources, and Motorola’s compiled, publ
