Here’s to Huawei, with a real mixer for those of us who’ve been following the P20 for a while. The company put a out a brand new Huawei P20 teaser, but the camera on it is horizontal. This directly goes against so many of the leaks we’ve seen, and has really thrown me for a loop.

Xiaomi’s history of being late with Android updates is a well known fact. The company hasn’t ever really released an Android update quickly, even on their flagship devices and even on the MiA1. Which is why it’s great news to hear that the Mi Mix 2’s Android Oreo update has finally been released.
