Honor has set aside $10 billion, which it will invest over the next five years, as it develops an intelligent phone that will "revolutionize human-to-device interaction" and bridge the AI ecosystem with consumers. The strategy also sees the release of AI-enhanced PCs, tablets, and wearables. The new ..

The Xiaomi Watch S4 has arrived on the global stage and it has some big shoes to fill - its predecessor is a hugely popular wearable. The Watch S4 ships with a fluororubber strap and a 2-pin magnetic charger. The charger still uses a USB-A plug - in 2025, we think a USB-C cable would've been better. Unboxing the Xiaomi Watch S4 Like its predecessor, the Watch S4 comes in a single 47mm case size with a 1.43-inch display. The display's brightness has grown significantly, though, from 600 nits to ..

Hot on the heels of Qualcomm announcing it will extend software support for its latest Snapdragon 8 and 7 series chipsets to eight years, Honor today has unveiled a support window expansion of its own. Starting now, all Honor Magic devices will get seven years of major Android updates and security updates. We're not sure this means seven major Android updates per device, as Honor's wording simply says "seven years of major Android OS updates", but no matter how you slice and dice it, you are at ..

Xiaomi just made the Pad 7 Pro globally available, and we have the unit in for review alongside a helping of its official accessories. In Europe, the tablet ships with just a USB-A to USB-C cable. Additionally, you can get the Focus Pen stylus for the tablet - to pair it, just place it on the magnetized edge of the slate and let the two work it out. What's in the box, the additional Focus Pen Xiaomi wants to elevate the 11-inch tablet to a full-blown personal computer and to do so has made two ..

HMD followed its Fusion X1 announcement at the MWC with a number of featurephones. The company unveiled four of those - 2660 Flip, 150 Music, 130 Music and the Barca edition of the 3210. HMD 2660 Flip Unsurprisingly the 2660 Flip is a clamshell phone available in a few fun colors ??? Twilight Violet, Raspberry Red and the more traditional Cosy Black. HMD 2660 Flip The spec sheet won't blow anybody away. The display measures 2.8 inches and sports QVGA resolution. There is a small 1.77-inch QQVGA ..

A few days after its Chinese launch, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is going global. The global version has some subtle differences, though. While the Chinese model packs a 6,000mAh battery, the global unit has a smaller 5,410mAh. The power pack still takes 90W wired and 80W wireless HyperCharge. The other difference is the choice of colors. In Europe, we get White, Black, and the special Silver Chrome edition. That means the Pine Green special edition remains exclusive to China. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra packs ..

HMD unveiled a few new devices at its event at the start of MWC 2025. The most interesting is undoubtedly the Fusion X1 , which comes with the Xplora parental control platform pre-installed. Normally, Xplora is a paid, subscription-based service that runs on the teen's phone and can send out alerts for different events, offer location tracking and history, controlled contacts, app approvals and remote screen time management. It's still unclear how long of a subscription you'll be getting for ..

The Itel Power 70 looks like a pretty nice overall package. First, let's tackle its claim to fame ??? the battery capacity. The phone has a pretty big but reasonably sized 6,000 mAh onboard battery. That allows it to maintain sensible proportions, measuring 165.92 x 77.31 x 7.98 mm and tipping the scale at 200 grams. The "trick" here is the additional 4,000 mAh charging case that Itel is throwing in as a launch gift with the phone. This extends the total battery capacity to 10,000 mAh (not ..

The Oppo Reno13 comes with a handful of upgrades this year, some resulting in measurable improvements in battery life. The battery capacity is now 5,600 mAh, up from 5,000 mAh on the Reno12 last year, and the phone runs on a supposedly more energy-efficient Dimensity 8350 SoC. The Reno13 also sports a 6.59-inch OLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate. const BATTERY_TEST_PHONE_V2 = [13515, 13133, 13262, 13219, 13585, 13328]; As is usually the case with ColorOS/OxygenOS/Realme UI-powered devices, the ..

Infinix showcased a new concept device in its Zero series. The Zero Mini tri-fold brings an interesting take on the tri-fold form factor with a flip-style outward folding design that utilizes dual hinges. The dual hinge design allows the display to fold and unfold vertically and conform to three sizes. Infinix Zero Mini tri-fold concept The concept device is built to serve multiple purposes ??? it???s a full-fledged smartphone that can also fold down to a compact camera that you attach to your ..

February is over and the Mobile World Congress is officially starting on Monday and Xiaomi unveiled its 15 Ultra for the Chinese market. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra is exactly what we expected - a camera beast made even scarier thanks to the addition of a 200MP 100mm f/2.6 telephoto camera, and a flagship made better thanks to the new Snapdragon 8 Elite. Xiaomi is expected to make the 15 Ultra globally available ahead of the MWC tomorrow. We obtained a list of devices that will get Samsung's Android 15 ..

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra joins the competition at the cutting edge of smartphone photography with a 200MP periscope. Unlike its rivals from vivo and Honor, the Xiaomi also has a medium-range telephoto module. Plus, the 15 Ultra equips its main camera with a 1??? sensor. Xiaomi 15 Ultra While photography is clearly this phone???s passion, it???s also an all-round flagship. It has a bright display with great image quality, the Snapdragon 8 Elite is as fast as ever while running the feature-rich ..

The Galaxy S25 Ultra is perhaps the most complete version of a smartphone you can get right now running Android, offering competent cameras, plenty of performance, solid battery life and display experience, all of the AI, and, of course, an S Pen. Not everyone needs all that, however, and if you're willing to sacrifice a feature here and there, a OnePlus 13 may be the more sensible option for you and perhaps even the better one in some ways. Let's compare. Table of Contents: Design Display ..

Apple, as the only maker of iOS phones out there, is responsible for providing entry-level models. Apple, a company that sees itself as a maker of premium products, has a hard time doing that. And the Apple iPhone 16e is a really bad entry-level model. Before we get to its qualities as a phone, however, we have to address the elephant in the room ??? its price. At $600/???700/??600/???60,000, this is well above the $400/$430 starting price of the last two generations of iPhone SE, even if it ..

Oppo unveiled the Reno13 Pro last November in China and began its international rollout in January. We shared our first impressions of the Oppo Reno13 Pro and are already working on its review.

It's iPhone 16e day and we were insistent enough to get one on launch day! Apple boldly states "Latest iPhone. Greatest price." but that proclamation works best in the States or the UK, where the phone starts from $599/??599. In Europe it's ???699 in Germany, ???719 in France, ???729 in Italy, which isn't exactly a bargain for a phone, and it's dangerously close to some 2024 Android flagships with superior specs. Apple provides a braided USB-C cable in the box and a SIM tool. The iPhone 16e is ..

Apple introduced the iPhone 16e as its new cheapest model, and today it is officially on sale. The iPhone 16e is available in 59 countries and regions, including Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, South Korea, Turkiye, the UAE, the UK, and the US.

The MWC warmup for Tecno continues with another major announcement. The company unveiled two different pairs of new smart glasses ??? AI Glasses and AI Glasses Pro, both with a built-in AI assistant. We also got confirmation that the Tecno ecosystem is getting three new Megabook laptops ??? S14, T14, and K15S - and two wearables ??? True 2 earbuds and Watch GT 1. Those will only be detailed during the MWC, though. The glasses are powered by Tecno AI, which includes voice commands with a touch ..

vivo's X-series phones came with ZEISS optics and bokeh flares, and while the upcoming X200 Ultra will also feature those, a new leak claims vivo has partnered with Japan's Fujifilm for its 2025 Ultra model. If the machine translation of the Chinese text is correct, vivo's cooperation with Fujifilm for the X200 Ultra will result in users getting a more professional image experience through improvements in image quality and color reproduction. The leak also revealed that the vivo X200 Ultra will ..

Huawei introduced the Mate 70 Pro back in November with a Kirin 9020 chipset and today the company introduced a somewhat confusing alternative version. Dubbed Premium Edition it will go on sale on March 5. The name suggests an improved version, but in reality, it has an underclocked CPU and a lower price tag on the company store Vmall. The listing did not actually mention the chip downgrade ??? we caught that in a separate Geekbench listing. The Huawei Mate 70 Pro Premium Edition has a model ..

Ahead of the MWC, Tecno announced the world's thinnest smartphone, the Spark Slim. At only 5.75 mm thick, it features two 50 MP cameras and a powerful 5,200 mAh battery. A significant caveat in this announcement is that the phone is merely a concept ??? there's no information available regarding a launch date. While the company will have demo units at the MWC we are unlikely to see it in the market in its current form. The Spark Slim features a 6.78" AMOLED display with curved edges, offering ..

Oppo Find X8 Ultra is expected to arrive in April, and today we learn a tablet will also be unveiled at the yet-to-be-scheduled event. According to Digital Chat Station, we will see an Oppo Pad 4 Pro, which will be the first tablet with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. The leakster added that this is the very same event at which the mini phone, dubbed Oppo Find X8 Next, will also debut. OnePlus Pad 2 aka Oppo Pad 3 Pro The new tablet will arrive just six months after its predecessor, the Pad 3 ..

A teaser dropped by vivo about a couple of weeks ago suggested the vivo T4x 5G would be priced under INR15,000, but now we learn its base price will be under INR13,000 ($150/???145). This revelation comes from Indian online retailer Flipkart, which posted an image on its website confirming the vivo T4x 5G's base model will have 6GB RAM and 128GB storage onboard. It will be priced at INR12,XXX, meaning anything between INR12,001 and INR12,999. The image also gave us a better look at the vivo T4x ..

vivo made the V50 official earlier this month, and a new listing in the Google Play Console now shows it will soon be joined by the V50 Lite. As usual, this means we get an official image to look at, as well as some of the device's specs. This V50 Lite is a 4G-only model powered by Qualcomm's ancient Snapdragon 680 SoC, paired with 8GB of RAM. It has the model number V2441. There will also be a 5G version with the model number V2440. The V50 Lite 4G has a 1080x2392 resolution screen, and it ..

The recently unveiled iPhone 16e doesn't have MagSafe, and Apple has already explained that this has nothing to do with the use of its first in-house developed modem. So why did it happen? Well, Apple says it decided not to equip the iPhone 16e with MagSafe because "most people in the 16e's target audience exclusively charge their phones by plugging them into a charging cable". This statement allegedly comes from unnamed "Apple representatives" speaking to Daring Fireball's John Gruber. Those ..

At its Unpacked event in January, where it unveiled the rest of the Galaxy S25 family, Samsung teased the Galaxy S25 Edge, and even let us go eyes-on with it. But nothing more than that. In case you've been wondering when to expect it to be fully unveiled, a new report from Korea today gives us an actual date: April 16. Since time zones exist, do note that it could actually happen on April 15 in some places. Either way, Samsung seems to have settled on mid-April to fully launch the thinnest ..

Apple recently overhauled its more affordable iPhone line, getting rid of the SE designation entirely and launching the iPhone 16e. According to a new report from research firm Consumer Intelligence Research Partners, Apple is also changing the release schedule for its new "e" line of cheaper iPhones. Unlike the SEs, which launched every two years before being ignored for three most recently, the "e" models will come every year. So, the iPhone 17e will land in 2026, a year after the iPhone 16e. ..

The Honor Magic7 RSR Porsche Design is a special edition phone born out of the cooperation between Honor and Porsche Design. However, beyond the tweaks to hardware and software design, there are a couple of intriguing differences in the camera hardware that can potentially elevate the image quality even further than the great level that the regular Honor Magic7 Pro already provides. Originally, we didn't spend too much time examining the image quality in our Honor Magic7 RSR review because we ..

The vivo Y-series welcomed its latest member with the Y04. The budget 4G smartphone was silently listed by the brand???s Egyptian branch. It features a 6.74-inch IPS LCD with HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate.

Samsung is making new A series devices official on March 2, and we're expecting at least the Galaxy A56 and A36, if not the A26 too. Yesterday the Korean company finally announced the unveiling date, and today the pre-order benefits have already been revealed. That's because Samsung partners in Nigeria have already listed the A36 and A56 (and not the A26, so that could still be a ways off). The listings tell us that you'll get a free travel charger, a free Galaxy Fit3, and a premium cover. ..

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra launch was certainly the highlight of today???s Xiaomi event, but the company is also bringing exciting new TWS buds and a powerful 16??? laptop that shouldn???t be overlooked.

That???s enough for 48kHz/24-bit lossless audio. But when paired with the Xiaomi 15 Ultra, these buds have a new trick up their ..
