Samsung Galaxy A9 Star Pro concept pic shows crazy four-camera unit on rear

-

A concept image of the Samsung Galaxy A9 Star Pro (aka A9 and A9 Pro) shows what the much-rumoured rear four-camera unit could look like.

The handset will be unveiled during a livestream of the company's A Galaxy Event on 11 October and all the clues point to the first four-camera smartphone - five if you count the front-facing snapper too.

Previous rumours have stated that the cameras will range down the top left-hand side of the phone, which you can see in the concept image. It'll make for an odd-looking device but one that could provide some excellent photos.

The image was posted by German website AllAboutSamsung. The site also claims to know the capabilities of each camera sensor.

There will be an 8-megapixel 120-degrees wide-angle camera, 24-megapixel main camera, 10-megapixel zoom camera and 5-megapixel depth camera. The purpose for each is yet to be revealed. However, bar the 10-megapixel zoom lens, the others also appear on the already-announced Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018).

That means we know the 5-megapixel camera is designed to take a depth reading for great Bokeh (the blurring effect in the background of a well-taken portrait shot, for example).

We're not sure yet what the 10-megapixel zoom camera will be used for specifically.

Other details leaked by the German site include the display spec. It will be 6.28-inches, Super AMOLED and have a FullHD+ resolution.

It is said to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 processor and come with a 3,720 mAh battery.

We'll find out for sure on 11 October.

All you’ll have to do is to plug them into the board’s RGB header and then using software like Asus Aura Sync or MSI Mystic Light Sync to control the effects. In case your board does not come with an option like that, the Strimer comes preloaded with 10 lighting presets. Sleeve cabling has always been an interesting thing to do with your PSU cables. Not only does it give it a n

Rumours suggesting the Samsung Galaxy S10 will feature an in-display fingerprint sensor are nothing new anymore. We've been hearing for a couple of years that Samsung will eventually introduce the technology but so far have yet to see anything. Now, according to a report from Korean news outlet ET News (via SamMobile ), the Galaxy S10 will finally get an in-display ultrasonic sensor, courtesy of Qualcomm.  Samsung Galaxy S10 specs, release date, news and rumours: What we know so far Apple and Samsung developing ultrasonic in-display sensors; won't appear until 2019 That last bit is a little unexpected, since a few weeks ago, another report out of Korea said that Samsung was in fact working on its own ultrasonic fingerprint sensor that it would then integrate with other non-smartphone devices, such as smart home devices and home appliances.  It's possible that Samsung either wasn't working on its own sensor at all, or it hit a few obstacles and would rather turn
