Soon, three major flagship smartphones will be introduced: several models of iPhones, Galaxy S10, and Pixel 3. The Galaxy S10 was expected to feature an under-display fingerprint sensor in the Galaxy S8 and later in S9, but this did not happen. Now, tech sites are saying that Samsung's new flagship will likely have this technology. According to some reports, Samsung, in collaboration with Qualcomm, plans to use ultrasonic sensors for this new model. Ultrasonic sensors are more expensive than optical models and scan fingerprints in 3D images. These sensors are safer and more flexible than current models and are not affected by skin oil and moisture. Some media had predicted that the S10 would be a 5G phone, but it has now been clarified that this is not the case. Some predict that the Note series will be the first Samsung phones to utilize 5G technology. Another expected feature of the S10 is a dual camera for selfies, and some media have reported the possibility of three cameras on the back of the S10 phones. For now, Samsung has better camera capabilities than many competitors. Samsung intends to unveil a completely new product from its flexible phones, likely named the Galaxy X. The Pixel series, developed directly by Google, has always been among the most exciting phones on the market despite their simplicity. These phones have high compatibility and speed thanks to their unique Android. The Pixel 3 will be introduced in October this year. Reports indicate that the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL will be manufactured by a Foxconn subsidiary called FIH, the same company that makes Nokia-branded phones. The Pixel 2 is produced by HTC. The Pixel 3 uses a Snapdragon 845 chip and has four gigabytes of RAM. While companies like Samsung use six gigabytes and OnePlus uses eight gigabytes of RAM, four gigabytes may be somewhat disappointing for this phone. It has been reported that the Pixel 3 will have a 5.3-inch display without a notch, while the Pixel 3 XL will have a 6.2-inch display with a notch. This phone will also not be among the first users of 5G technology. Apple is also set to unveil a new series of iPhones soon, and as usual, Apple fans are gearing up to purchase these products. The company will showcase two other models with a full-screen design and a notch alongside the successor to the iPhone X. These products will not have a home button. As usual, Apple fans are preparing to buy these products. These phones will use the company's new processor named A12. According to various company reviews, this processor will be the strongest mobile phone processor in the world by next year. The likely names for these three products are iPhone 11, 11 Plus, and SE Plus. The iPhone 11, with a 5.8-inch display, a 19-megapixel rear camera, and a 12-megapixel front camera, is priced around $900. This phone has two cameras on the back and one selfie camera on the front. The iPhone 11 Plus, with a 6.5-inch display and similar hardware specifications, has three cameras on the back and one selfie camera on the front, priced at a minimum of $1,000. The new SE Plus model will be the cheapest phone released, priced around $700, featuring a 19-megapixel rear camera and a 12-megapixel front camera. Apple uses four gigabytes of RAM for the 11 models and three gigabytes for the SE Plus model.
