Honor 20 Lite offers up three rear cameras for a budget price tag

The Honor 20 Lite has been officially announced and it's the first handset to bear the 'Honor 20' name ahead of the Chinese firm's May 21 launch event where we will see the flagship Honor 20 and Honor 20 Pro.

However, Honor has decided to give the 20 Lite its own chance at stardom by announcing it earlier than its namesakes, and it'll even go on sale before its pricier siblings have been announced.

The Honor 20 Lite release date is set for May 15, and it's priced at £249.99, which is reasonable when you consider what you're getting in return.

There's a 6.21-inch Full HD+ display, Kirin 710 chipset, 4GB of RAM, 128GB of internal storage, microSD slot, 32MP front-facing camera and Android 9 Pie (coated in EMUI 9.0). It's what's on the rear that's the real talking point though.

Snap happy

The Honor 20 Lite boasts three rear cameras, with a 48MP main sensor, 2MP depth sensor for portrait mode, blurred backgrounds and a wide-angle, 120 degree 8MP snapper allowing you to fit more of your surroundings into each shot.

That's an impressive line-up, especially when you consider its similarly placed rivals are only packing dual cameras.

There's also a rear facing fingerprint scanner, while a headphone jack joins a speaker and microUSB port on the base of the 20 Lite.

You'll be able to pick the Honor 20 Lite up from a number of retailers on May 15, including Carphone Warehouse, Amazon, John Lewis, Argos, AO.com and Very. 

It will be available in two colors - Phantom Blue and Midnight Black - with the black version exclusive to Carphone Warehouse for the first six months.

The future of Magic Leap's promising AR efforts dim after layoffs

The Magic Leap Two is now further away than ever, unfortunately. Today in a blog post the augmented reality pioneer announced major layoffs and has decided to cut up to half of its workforce, according to some reports. The original Magic Leap One was supposed to be one of the first mainstream augmented reality headsets when it launched in 2018, but a high price point and lack of interest from developers left the headset high and dry after launch. According to the blog post, Magic Leap says it will be focusing its efforts on enterprise solutions (a statement HTC has made recently as well) and shift its focus away from consumer technology… at least for the time being.  The company has been open about creating a second headset that would offer improved specs for some time, but how that work will now have to go forward without half of the team , according to some estimates, remains to be seen. Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase .

He also suggested that both the COVID-19 pandem...
