WhatsApp Group Audio and Video Call Feature now LIVE for some Android users

Just few weeks after Facebook announced the coming of new features to WhatsApp during the annual F8 developer conference, they are now here!

Now, audio and video calling on WhatsApp group has started making its way to some Android users of the platform. AndroidPolice reports that many WhatsApp users are now seeing the group calls option on their devices. In addition, the same group calling features have been rolling out to iOS devices for a few days now.

Alternatively, Android users can also enjoy this new group calls function on the latest WhatsApp beta 2.18.162. However, not everyone using the latest version of WhatsApp beta is seeing the feature, thus, it seems Facebook is pushing it via a server-side update. It will take some time for the new feature to reach all Android users. Incase you don't know, the WhatsApp group calling will allow you talk to up to four people on the same call and at the same time.

For the Samsung Galaxy A9 Star, the Korean manufacturer didn't go for its usual design in the hope of capturing the interest of Chinese consumers. Now, an angular dual camera setup is positioned vertically in the top-left corner on the rear just like the iPhone X and Huawei P20. Below it can be found a dual-tone LED flash and a much-squarer fingerprint sensor which has been moved further up the of the phone.

On the front, there is a large 6.3-inch FullView Display with tiny bezels wrapping around it. A 16-megapixel front-facing camera and in-ear speaker occupies the top bezel, and to cap it off, the upper-midrange smartphone will likely feature a dedicated Bixby button, much like Samsung’s recent Galaxy S9 lineup.

In terms of performance, the processor to be used is not yet known, but it will be coupled with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage according to recent TEENA listing. Also, the dual rear camera has been revealed to feature a main 24-megapixel lens and a secondary 16-megapixel sensor. To keep the lights on, the Samsung Galaxy A9 Star is expected to use 3,700mAh battery while running Android 8.0 Oreo out of the box.

Like I earlier stated, the release date for this handset hasn't be revealed yet, but it may be available exclusively in China. These images also suggest at least two color variants of black and white.

Google is currently working on the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL, and now a photo allegedly showing the screen protectors for both smartphones has sutfaced online – revealing some interesting information in the process.

Still looking at the image, the number of cutouts on the screen protectors suggests the upcoming flagship Pixel devices will feature dual front-facing cameras. Both models will also have a speaker below the display as seen from the cutouts on the screen protectors.In addition, the pair will come with the reigning 18:9 aspect ratio display, although the Pixel 3 XL screen will be larger than the one on the Pixel 3.

Before last year's Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL were unveiled, there were rumours that LG will be responsible for both third-generation Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL models. HTC produced the Pixel 2 while LG manufactured the Pixel 2 XL. We haven't heard anything since the initial report that would back this up, so for now we simply don't know if this is true.

The source of the image was originally discovered on Weibo, so take the details above with a pinch pf salt while we await official confirmations from Google. Meanwhile, it may take another four to five months before the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL gets launched, and before then a lot can be changed.

Samsung is working on the Galaxy Note 9 which is set to launch in the coming months.

This next Samsung flagship device is expected to come with 64GB of internal storage and 6GB of RAM. But acording to a well-known tipster with accurate track record, another variant with 8GB of RAM and a whooping 512GB of native storage is in line. This is two times higher that amount of internal storage Samsung offers for its Galaxy S9 series – 256GB. This model will also have a microSD card slot for expanded memory, but it may be available exclusively to China .

In terms of performance, Samsung Galaxy Note 9 will likely be powered with Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 over in the US while remaining markets will receive the Exynos 9810 chip, which may actually be speedier than the Qualcomm variant. For image and video duties, a variable aperture main camera is expected to be included alongside a secondary telephoto lens, much like the recent Galaxy S9+. However, it’s unclear if any major upgrades will be included.

To cap it off, this upcoming device will run Android 8.1 Oreo based on the latest Samsung Experience UI. The Galaxy Note 9 is rumoured to be unveiled and released by late-July and mid-August, which means that the final version of Android P would still not be publicly available. The South Korean company may however release the new software in a future update.
