The smartphone comes in a black-colored box - which is smaller than the more expensive iQOO 9 lineup's package - and includes a protective case, some paperwork, a SIM card...

The Samsung Galaxy Watch5 Pro will not have a rotating bezel, leakster says

According to leaks, Samsung is working on three smartwatch models for the Galaxy Watch5 generation – their code names are Heart-S, Heart-L and Heart-Pro. As you may imagine, these probably refer to the 40mm and 44mm sizes of a vanilla model plus a Pro model. But no Classic version this time. Does that mean no rotating bezel? Only the Watch4 Classic had it, the vanilla didn’t. There was always the hope that the new Galaxy Watch5 Pro model will carry on this style, but leakster Ice Universe just extinguished that hope. Some previous Samsung watches tried to emulate this hardware feature...

There were many leaks about a sensor called “Sony IMX800”, which was supposed to be huge and was going to be featured in multiple flagships.

In some regions dual-SIM models are quite popular, though in recent years eSIM (embedded SIM) has started taking over from the secondary slot for an external card.
