OnePlus 6T

OnePlus generally release a T version (T= Turbo version) around fall so if OnePlus follow the same rythm as last year and the OnePlus 5T, the 6T should be announced anytime soon.  Why do we care about the OnePlus 6T ? simply because the 6 was everything an Android gamer could have hope for.

ONEPLUS 6

The « T » version usually gets a boost in performance, however, we might not see the new Snapdragon 855 CPU but more changes on the design side and camera. So far, the latest leaks indicate:

• New teardrop notch design
• In-Display Fingerprint
• No more 3.5 mm headphone jack

OnePlus and Oppo belong to the same manufacturer, hence you can have a look at the Oppo R17 to have an idea of what could the OnePlus 6t looks like.

Pixel 3

We all have high expectations about the Pixel 3, considering that the Pixel 2 was considered by a lot of people as the best Android experience out there, and it was indeed a great phone, powerful enough the run the most demanding Android games available on the Google Play. This year, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL should boast a Snapdragon 845 along with 4gb RAM, which some of you could consider a bit low considering that the Android high market seems to have 6gb as a norm now.  Android Pie 9.0 should be the very least we would get, and most likely a 9.1 would be released at the same time of the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL release.

a Snapdragon 845, 4GB RAM and the last version of Android should be able to handle any types of Android games, even the most hardcore and ressource hungry such as PUBG. Thanks to some Russian leaks, we even have plenty of Pixel 3 photos.

Razer Phone 2

The first Razer Phone has been a very good surprise considering it was Razer first shot into the Smartphone world. Razer builds and sells powerful gaming laptop and some accessories, so it was normal to see a phone built for gamers. To live up to the expectations, the Razer phone boasted features such as an impressive 2560 x 1440 pixels screen with a refresh rate of 120 Hz, which was a particularly nice addition if you like to play MOBA games on your android phone, as well as impressive dual speakers.
