We hope you weren’t expecting to get your hands on Xiaomi’s upcoming Mi Mix Alpha any time soon. According to Abacus , Xiaomi has delayed its futuristic handheld, and the Chinese tech company currently doesn’t even have a release date planned. The device was initially expected to launch this month, but this delay pushes that back for an undisclosed amount of time. Xiaomi said it would release information as soon as possible, but that could mean anything. Xiaomi first confirmed the Mi Mix Alpha in September. Since then, we have seen information about the device’s triple-camera setup — which includes a 108MP shooter — and its 180.6% screen-to-body ratio. Xiaomi even showed off the physical device shortly after its announcement, and we know the device should retail for a whopping 20,000 yuan (~$2,800). We don’t exactly know what caused this delay, but given the device’s technical endeavors, there could be a million reasons Xiaomi would want to postpone the Mi Mix Alpha’s launch.

As 2019 comes to a close, we take our leave of the 2010s and enter into the 2020s. This is the first full decade that Android phones have been around, as the first Android phone didn’t pop up until 2008. As such, we thought we’d take a look back at the best Android phones of the decade, from the beginning of 2010 to the end of 2019. Below, we’ve picked the best smartphone from each year. Additionally, we also threw in some honorable mentions, as for some years it was very difficult to choose just one. Without further ado, here are the best Android phones of the decade! 2010: HTC Nexus One The HTC Nexus One wasn’t the first Android phone, but it was the first Nexus phone. It also was the first phone that Google sold in the then-unconventional manner of focusing on online direct sales of unlocked units, rather than relying on carriers. It also shipped with an easily unlockable bootloader, which made it a huge hit within the custom ROM community. Related:  Ghosts of Nexus past: Ne

According to a report from the Chinese technology site Sina Mobile , Huawei has shipped over 12 million devices from its latest line of flagships, the Huawei Mate 30 series. This would include the Mate 30, Mate 30 Pro , the 5G variants of those two devices, and the Mate 30 RS Porsche Design . Huawei revealed at an event in November that it had shipped 7 million units of the Mate 30 series after just 60 days. If this 12 million figure is true, that means Huawei shipped 5 million more Mate 3o devices within the past month. Unfortunately, Sina doesn’t divulge where Huawei shipped these devices. Considering the Mate 30 series hasn’t received any prominent global launches outside of China, it’s a safe bet to assume that the bulk of those 12 million units were shipped within Huawei’s home country.
