Apple iPhone 7 Plus Camera Review And Image Test
Apple
Apple is expected to bring a major upgrade to its 2017 flagships. The iPhone 8 has already been the centre of many leaks, with some reports suggesting the upcoming iPhone will finally get an OLED display.
Apple might also do away with the aluminium casing in favour of an all-glass body, similar to iPhone 4/4s series.

An iPhone 8 with a bezel-less display and no actual physical home button is also rumoured. The 2017 iPhone could also bring wireless charging to the mix, a feature that has been long awaited.
Samsung
Following the untimely demise of the Galaxy Note 7, Samsung’s next flagship will be closely watched. The Galaxy S8 will make an appearance in February 2017, though some reports suggest April, and it is likely to be the first smartphone to have Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 835 chipset.

Latest rumours suggest Galaxy S8 have a 6-inch display version packed with 8GB of RAM. Samsung is expected to do away with the 3.5mm headphone jack and introduce a USB Type-C port for chargE
A tipster from Weibo has hinted at the S8 getting a dual (13MP + 12MP) camera setup, but conflicts with most reports which suggests that Samsung will not be introducing this. We can also expect Samsung to launch the Galaxy Note 8 next year.

Nokia-branded smartphones
Nokia plans to jump right back into the smartphone market in 2017, following the expiry of a non-compete clause it signed with Microsoft when the latter acquired its mobile business. Once a dominant and well established brand, Nokia will re-enter the market with new Android devices which will be manufactured by HMD Global using the Nokia brand.
Nokia D1C is expected to be the first smartphone to be launched by the company in 2017
Nokia D1C is expected to be one of the first phones to be out next year at MWC 2017. The Android OS based smartphone is expected to come in two variants – 2GB/3GB RAM, priced at roughly Rs 10,000 and Rs 13,000 respectively. According to leaks on NokiaPowerUser, D1C will be powered by a Snapdragon 430 processor, and will come in two display sizes; a 5-inch and 5.5-inch version along with a 13MP rear camera and an 8MP front camera.
Nokia P smartphone is another device expected to launch in 2017, and is rumoured to sport Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 835 chipset and feature 6GB RAM. The phone is likely to feature a 23MP rear camera fitted with Carl Zeiss optics and will have a Quad HD resolution display. Nokia P is expected in the second half of 2017.
BlackBerry
BlackBerry is no longer making smartphones in-house, but instead will partner with China’s TCL; the latter will manufacture and distribute BlackBerry-branded phones. TCL is expected to announce BlackBerry-branded smartphones at CES 2017 and BlackBerry Mercury could be revealed at the show.
BlackBerry Mercury is reported to be featuring a Snapdragon 625 processor and come with 3GB RAM.
