The next best smartphones in 2020

2019 is coming to an end. A whole year of innovation has passed in the entire technology sector, including smartphones. We've seen loads of revolutionary devices and technologies, as well as impressive growth of important brands.

We have even started collecting information about the upcoming smartphones in 2020. This year leaves us with a lot of rumors and leaks about the upcoming devices from the most important brands.

 That is why we decided to collect the most important information in a dedicated post. Here you will find the next best smartphones in 2020 with everything we know about them. The top obviously includes only devices for which we already have some details. Note that a lot of the information is based only on rumors, so take it all with a pinch of salt.



 


OnePlus will be holding a special event at CES 2020 (Consumer Electronics Show) that will kick off in Las Vegas on January 7 and will run through January 10.


CEO Pete Lau has revealed that we will see something special at this event. Later, Pete Lau confirmed that the company would unveil a new smartphone at CES 2020. It would be the first OnePlus concept phone.


Indeed, the company called it OnePlus Concept One. Unfortunately, we don't know anything about the new concept phone: the company hasn't released any details.


Concept phones are usually very innovative so expect something revolutionary to happen. According to the assumptions, OnePlus may reveal its first foldable phone. But there are those who believe that the company will either show a mid-range smartphone (not a single phone since the OnePlus X) or a pair of true wireless earbuds. What do you think?


A few days ago, Xiaomi officially announced the Redmi K30 and K30 5G. Contrary to a lot of people who thought, the new lineup didn't include a first-class variant but only a mid-range variant.


Even the K30 5G model that supports 5G connectivity is a mid-ranger as it is powered by the Snapdragon 765G chipset (Qualcomm's first mid-range chipset with 5G).


But that does not mean that there will be no flagship in the Redmi K30 series. According to the latest report from a known leak, the Redmi K30 Pro will be launched in March 2020 and it will be amazing. It will be powered by the recently announced Snapdragon 865 chipset: Qualcomm flagship SoC that will be in several flagships in 2020.


The chipset will offer an integrated 5G modem: Snapdragon X55 with support from SA and NSA standards. Previous rumors indicated that the Redmi K30 Pro will have a refresh rate of 120 Hz just like the vanilla version, as well as a 6.67-inch panel with Full HD + resolution and a punch-hole design. The camera section will include a 64MP Sony IMX686 sensor,


It is supported by an ultra-high resolution 13MP lens, 8MP telephoto lens, and a 2MP depth sensor. The front camera located in the hole punch is said to contain a 32-megapixel sensor and a secondary 3D sensor. The Redmi K30 Pro is rumored to have a 4,500mAh battery supported by 30W fast charging technology.


Xiaomi Mi 10


We talked about the possibility of the Redmi K30 Pro arriving in March with the Snapdragon 865 chipset. But it seems that the Redmi K30 Pro will not be the first Xiaomi phone with the Snapdragon 865. At Lincom, the co-founder of Qualcomm Snapdragon Tech Summit, Bin Bin announced that the Xiaomi Mi 10 will be One of the first smartphones to be powered by the Snapdragon 865 mobile platform.


We also know that there will be a Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro as officially confirmed by Lin Bin. The alleged Xiaomi Mi 10 was recently certified by 3C with fast charging at 30W, and we know that it will debut with MIUI 11 based on Android 10. We also expect it to come with a 108MP main camera and 5G support. Other than that, nothing is known about the specifications of Xiaomi Mi 10 and 10 Pro.ريدمي 9


Not only the flagship: we got information even about an affordable smartphone in 2020. According to a report, Redmi 9 will be launched in early 2020 and will initially debut in China, and then expand to the Indian market later. The Redmi 9 is said to come with a 6.6-inch screen and a waterdrop notch.


It looks like it will be powered by MediaTek's Helio G70 chipset: a curve version of the Helio G90T is present on the Redmi Note 8 Pro, but still offers high graphics performance. The SoC is expected to be paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage in the base configuration. Obviously, there will be other variants. Redmi 9 could debut with MIUI 11 and Android 10 just out of the box as Xiaomi Mi 10.


OnePlus 8 series


OnePlus will officially launch the new OnePlus 8 series in Q2 2020, but many details have already emerged about it. For the first time in a year, the next series of smartphones will consist of three models and will include an affordable variant. Thanks to the cabriolet, we even know the rumored specifications of the phones. The OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro are said to feature 6.4 and 6.7-inch screens respectively, with S-AMOLED E3 technology and curved sides.


It will be a dual-hole display with 120Hz refresh rate, Quad HD + resolution with 1440 x 3140 pixels, and more. The OnePlus 8 Lite is rumored to come with a 6.4-inch S-AMOLED E2 display with a 90Hz refresh rate and Full HD + resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. They will all include an in-screen fingerprint scanner.


OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro will be equipped with the Snapdragon 865 chipset, paired with 8 or 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 128 or 256 GB of UFS 3.0 internal storage depending on the configuration chosen. The OnePlus 8 Lite may contain the Dimension 1000 SoC package by MediaTek, 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128 or 256 GB of internal storage (UFS 3.0).


OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro may have a dual front camera with a 32MP sensor and a 3D TOF sensor, while the OnePlus 8 Lite is said to come with a 16MP front camera. On OnePlus 8 Lite,


There may also be a triple camera with a 48MP main sensor, a 16MP high-resolution sensor, and a 12MP telephoto lens (OIS and EIS included). The OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro are said to be better than camera phones with a 64MP main sensor, a 20MP high-resolution sensor, and a 12MP telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom support and a 3D (TOF) sensor.


The battery may have 4,000 mAh in the OnePlus 8 and 8 Lite, while the OnePlus 8 Pro is said to have a 4,500 mAh battery with 35W fast charging. We should see stereo speakers and a glass back with Gorilla Glass 5 and 6 protec
