This week, Fujifilm announced a new digital half-frame compact camera called the X Half. Like half-frame film cameras, the X Half shoots vertical frames, but records to an 18-megapixel sensor instead. The X Half looks like a combination of Fujifilm's popular X100VI and an old Rollie 35 film camera. The X Half is also designed to be fun rather than a “serious” camera (whatever that means). OnePlus is keeping things chugging along with the OnePlus Pad 3—its predecessor is our favorite Android tablet, so there are high expectations for this slate.
