Nubia Red Magic 5G Live Image Leaked Showing off Back Design

A live image of what’s said to be the Nubia Red Magic 5G gaming smartphone, seems to show-off some of the key design aspects on the back of the device. It reveals a vertical triple-camera module at the top and a prominent ‘Red Magic’ logo lit up with what seems to be LED lights. Interestingly, it also shows off a POGO connector on the edge, which could be for connecting accessories, or might even be a magnetic charging connector similar to the Black Shark 3.

The phone also has a ‘5G’ branding to emphasize its support for the latest technology in cellular connectivity, as well as air vents on the side for thermal management. The image was posted by GameBench, which offers performance-monitoring tools and services for OEMs and developers.

Originally scheduled to be unveiled at the MWC 2020, the Nubia Red Magic 5G is now expected to be announced next month after the annual mobile expo in Barcelona had to be cancelled because of the coronavirus outbreak. Several key aspects about the device have already been either confirmed by the company through a steady stream of teasers over the past several days, or revealed via an official listing on the website of China’s electronics certification agency, TENAA.

According to official teasers from Nubia, the Red Magic 5G will ship with a 144Hz display panel, possibly making it the first mainstream consumer smartphone with a refresh-rate that high. The company has also confirmed that the phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 865. It might also support 80W fast charging, which should make it the fastest-charging production smartphone.

Meanwhile, the TENAA listing revealed that the device will have a 6.65-inch display and up to 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM, although, the device used by GameBench, however, had only 12GB of RAM. The device will also ship with 256GB of storage, a 5,000mAh battery and Android 10 out-of-the-box, all of which should make it a worthy competitor against other upcoming gaming-centric smartphones like the Black Shark 3, which will launch on March 5.

Twitter Wants to Build an ‘Open and Decentralized’ Social Media Platform

In an attempt to create a Facebook competitor, which everyone flocks to, Twitter became increasingly centralized over the years. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey believes that’s the case and has now tweeted a lengthy plan to fund research to build an open and decentralized standard for social media platforms. It will “ultimately become a standard” that Twitter’s client will be based upon. Dubbed Bluesky, this project will see a team of up to five researchers , which could include open-source architects, engineers, and designers, being on-boarded in the near future. Currently, Bluesky has no team members but Dorsey tweeted that Twitter’s CTO Parag Agrawal has been tasked with finding a lead. The folks over at Firefox have already extended a helping hand, saying how the non-profit has contributed to decentralization. Enough jibber-jabber, but what exactly is Bluesky? And what does it intend to achieve? Dorsey, in his tweetstorm , states that the challenges being faced by centralized social...
