Week 24 in review: OnePlus 3 is finally here, Apple announces iOS 10
There are weeks when the attention gets shared between various smartphones and then there are weeks when a single one stands in the spotlight. Well, the latter was the case these past few days, and it was the OnePlus 3 that took center stage. Final leaks leading up to the launch, official announcement and then initial impressions - you were eager to read it all.
Despite all the clamor around the 3, though, the announcement of iOS 10 didn't go unnoticed. Updated interface, new Siri features, improved keyboard, the list goes on.
A few other announcements took place over the last week - a bunch of LG phones, some of which we've already seen, yet others that only come out now with barely any official specs. Not as mysterious, the Xiaomi Redmi 3s got unveiled, and so did the Meizu m3s.
As for rumors, it's the usual suspects there - the iPhone 7 might have a capacitive home key, while the Galaxy Note7 has been seemingly confirmed to sport a dual-edged display. Additionally, Samsung's high-end phablet is due to be announced on August 2, if a leaked event poster is the real deal.
