Oppo PBCM30 appears with Snapdragon 660 on Geekbench, will likely be called K1


Oppo is having a launch party on October 10 for a new device that we already know a lot about. The phone with the model number PBCM30 appeared on TENAA with 2 GHz CPU. We knew it shares much of its hardware with the Oppo R17 and the overall footprint of the Oppo R15, but it's only know that we learn its name and actual chipset.
The device has appeared at Geekbench over the weekend, giving us a glimpse of its performance, as well as unveiling the Snapdragon 660 chipset. According to some rumors the phone will be called Oppo K1 and will be positioned as a more affordable alternative to the Oppo R17.

The PBCM30 model has 6 GB RAM, but we already knew that from the TENAA listing that popped up last month. There will be also PBCM10 and PBCT10 versions, that will likely have different RAM and storage.
Other specs include a dual 16 MP + 2 MP camera on the back and a single 25 MP selfie shooter. There is a 6.4” AMOLED panel, suggesting a fingerprint scanner underneath it, while the resolution is 2,340 x 1,080 pixels with an extremely tall ratio of 19.5:9. It is the very same panel as the Oppo R17 Pro, but we are yet to see the size of the notch.

We still have 10 more days until the phone is unveiled, but we expect the rumor mill to keep going and eventually unveil the most crucial details - pricing and availability.

The Sony Walkman Turns 40: Gadget That Changed The Way We Enjoy Music

It has been 40 years since Sony unveiled its first Walkman. The portable cassette player from the Japanese company changed the way people listen to music. Today, almost everyone plugs in their earphones during the commute. However, things were quite different back in the 70s. Music was a luxury you could only enjoy at home or inside a car. Even the incredibly expensive compact cassette players were as big as sling bags. According to a legend, Sony’s co-founder Masaru Ibuka who traveled a lot asked the company’s Executive Deputy President Norio Ohga to develop a portable cassette player. Norio Ohga then turned to his best engineer Nobutoshi Kihara to build a prototype unit. The device turned out to be so good that the company decided to mass manufacture it. The result was the first Walkman, which enabled people to enjoy music on the go. It was such a cultural phenomenon that Walkman became a synonym for portable music players. Let’s go through the major milestones of a product that h...
