More manufacturers are warming up to Windows Phone. Last week, Acer announced its first Windows Phone and now a Lenovo device called the ‘S2’ has been spotted running Windows Phone 7.5. According to WinRumors, speculation about a Lenovo device has been around for about a year. We don’t yet know much about this new device, but it appears to have about a 4.3-inch screen, run Windows Phone 7.5, and it does have a front-facing camera. The overall shape of the phone is rounded and looks quite similar to Lenovo’s consumer-aimed IdeaPad K1 tablet. 

Winphonexap.com, the site that posted these pictures, claims that an Android version of the handset could be on the docket as well. We’ll post specs and availability as soon as we learn of them.

A leak has shown a schematic purported to illustrate the layout of the newly minimized notch, and it appears to be around half the width of the current notch. It follows another recent detailed leak of the iPhone 12 Pro Max based on a series of renders, which also showed the smaller notch, and an overall design reminiscent of the iPad Pro and the iPhone 5.

Android users are getting their first glimpse of a new operating system feature while using Google Maps, as the app is the first to make use of the Live Updates ability that was added for Android 16.
