Our first look at Samsung’s Galaxy S9 design .

Samsung prepares to launch its next flagship handset. The phone should come in two versions, just like every Galaxy S phone since the S6 series, and recent rumors said it’ll be similar to last year’s Galaxy S8. The same reports said the rear panel should see some major design changes though, including the inevitable addition of a dual-lens camera. Now, for the first time, a set of images supposedly show the Galaxy S9’s updated design.

Posted over on SlashLeaks but originally found on Weibo, the CAD drawings supposedly belong to the Galaxy S9. We’re looking at an all-screen phone with top and bottom bezels that appear to be far slimmer than the Galaxy S8’s. There’s no way to prove this is a Samsung phone, but the handset does have curved edges, which is a signature feature for Samsung’s flagship handsets.

On the back, there’s a dual camera module that has a vertical orientation rather than a horizontal one, as found on the Galaxy Note 8. Various rumors claimed that the Galaxy S8 will feature a dual lens camera setup, which was first introduced on this year’s Note handset after having been popularized by Apple’s iPhone 7 Plus.

What’s also different is the location of the fingerprint sensor, which is positioned beneath the cameras in a more accessible spot. Samsung was criticized before for the awkward placement of the fingerprint sensor on the Galaxy S8 and Note 8.

That said, this is just a leak and should be treated accordingly. It could always be a fake, and we’ll probably see more Galaxy S9 leaks in the coming months. A leaker on Twitter by the name of @OnLeaks, who often contests other people’s leaks, says that these new CAD images are fake or perhaps outdated.

The same leaker, however, tweeted renders a few weeks ago that featured the purported design of Samsung’s Galaxy A5 and Galaxy A7 mid-range handsets. In them, we can clearly see a vertical camera and fingerprint sensor arrangement positioned on the back of the phones. If Samsung is doing that for its cheaper handsets, it could certainly also be planning similar designs for the Galaxy S9 and Note 9.

Floyd Mayweather Baby Mama Sues for $20 Mil ... He's a Despicable Liar

Floyd Mayweather could lose tens of millions of dollars from his big payday if his baby mama gets her way ... because she's just filed a lawsuit claiming he ruined her with lies to save his own ass. Josie Harris, who has 3 kids with Floyd, claims he lied through his teeth in an interview with Katie Couric just 2 weeks before the big fight ... when he claimed Josie was in a drug-fueled rage and he had to "restrain" her during their infamous 2010 domestic violence incident. Point of fact ... Floyd was convicted of domestic violence and spent two months in jail. Josie recounts her terror in the lawsuit, explaining how she and Floyd had broken up ... but he flew into a jealous rage that night, broke into her home and viciously attacked her while she was sleeping on her couch ... and her kids saw part of the beating. Harris says she is now labeled a drug addict thanks to Mayweather's lies -- and was embarrassed and humiliated on a global scale.   Her lawyer, Dan Friedl...

Dangerous sex Positions For Men

The most common cause of pĂ©nile injury is found among the variety of potentially dangerous positions used for sĂ©xual intercourse. The most popular is the ‘woman-on-top’. This type of position can result in an impact between the pĂ©nis against the female pelvis or perineum that can easily traumatize the pĂ©nile cylinders. A pĂ©nis becomes Ă©rect when the lining of the cylinder within it is engorged with blood.  A pĂ©nis fracture can occur when there is trauma to the erĂ©ct pĂ©nis, resulting in a rupture of the cylinder lining. This very painful injury is often accompanied by an abrupt, distressing cracking noise that is immediately followed by dark bruising of the pĂ©nis due to blood escaping the cylinder. In ten to 30% of pĂ©nis fractures, the urethra is damaged and blood may be visible at the urinary opening. Given these signs, an injury should be relatively simple to diagnose, right? You would be surprised, even with the unsettling sounds of a fracture occurring, many men...

Google, harder to search for results from other countries

For a long time, there was an easy way to conduct a Google search in a country other than the one you’re in. If you wanted to get results specific to Japan, for instance, you would visit www.google.co.jp; to get Australian results you would visit www.google.com.au — but this trick no longer works. Google has announced that it will now always serve up results that are relevant to the country that you’re in, regardless of the country code top level domain names (ccTLD) you use. The reason given is a little bizarre. The search giant says that the change has been introduced because of the way people are using the search engine these days. It says: “around one in five searches on Google is related to location, so providing locally relevant search results is an essential part of serving you the most accurate information.” The argument seems counterintuitive, however. Anyone who has changed the ccTLD has done so consciously, and for a reason — for Google to override this decision is strange...
