Huawei Patents A Phone Design With Attachable Zoom Lens:

Huawei has been holding a number of the best camera smartphones every year since its partnership with Leica begun. The versatile optical zoom camera arrangement on this handset shows it to be one of the best within the market. Now, as per a patent filed by Huawei, it’s a greater desire to stay its lead within the smartphone zoom technology. The company has additional plans to lead during this segment because it patents a design for a unique zoom camera smartphone at European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO). Periscope lens provides optical zoom on phones by using smaller space than a standard zoom system. But it still falls behind the normal zoom technology with larger sensors and lenses. Huawei objectives to resolution this by adding support for attachable lenses just like regular cameras. This particular design patent seems to possess a triple camera arrangement involving two smaller sensors, an elongated flash module, and a larger sensor which will be used with removable lenses. Huawei will not be the first to supply an attachable camera lens as Motorola previously tried it with its unsuccessful Moto Mod. Besides, it’s not certain if this design patent will ever get the sunshine of the day like various other patents.

 

Samsung Galaxy M41 to be Launch with Massive 6800mAh Battery :

The Samsung Galaxy M40 that was released previous year was an exciting device. It had been different from its other M-Series members in several aspects. While there was a talk about a successor of the M40 since late 2019, but Samsung didn’t release another M4X device since then. The device was said to launch this year, but some reports suggested its arrival was cancelled due to some display issues. And it has been rumoured that the company could rather launch the Galaxy M51. Though, this information might not be valid anymore. Today, we‘ve come across details about a Lithium-ion battery that appears to belong to the Samsung Galaxy M41 thanks to a 3C certification document. A picture of the battery has also appeared on the Safety Korea website.

From the picture, it’s clear that the battery stands the model number EB-BM415ABY which it’s factory-made by a Chinese company called Ningde Amperex Technology Limited. Seeing this is an M-series device, the Samsung Galaxy M41 could be priced at around Rs 15,000 to Rs 20,000 in India. Hence, it will remain as of now, the only phone with such a big battery within the segment. Note that straight though the rated capacity is 6800 mAh, at launch, Samsung could market this as a 7000mAH battery.
