Google announced its Android developer verification program last year to make app sideloading safer for Android users. And a few months ago, Google said that Android users would have to wait 24 hours before sideloading apps from unverified developers. Now, the company has revealed the timeline for its new sideloading changes coming to Android. Starting this month, Google will roll out a new system service that will be automatically installed on most Android devices and will also be used to verify developer registration later this year. In July, Google will launch the Android...

Apple CEO Tim Cook recently said that the company could raise the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory shortage, which has led to higher memory prices. While Apple hasn't revealed how much its products will cost, a new report by The Wall Street Journal and research firm TechInsights estimates the price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro.

Following the EU and Japan, Brazil has now forced Apple to open up iOS to third-party app stores and non-Apple payment processing for developers. App developers can now use alternative app stores in Brazil to distribute their apps, and they can also process payments made for apps and games and in-app purchases outside of Apple's payment system. Just like every other time it's been forced to do something like this in the past, Apple is once again highlighting how these changes "open new avenues for malware, fraud, scams, and privacy and security risks". All alternative app stores will...

The brand has just started teasing it in China, revealing its three colorways: Green Peak, Desert Gold, and Ink Shadow. You can see all three in the official images below. iQOO Z11i official images While iQOO itself hasn't revealed any of the phone's specs, a tipster on Weibo claims this will be a rebranded vivo Y60, which launched back in April.

Fresh off its unveiling, we've got the Honor Watch 6, and it's about as easy a recommendation as a wearable could be. The watch 6 ships in either Twilight Brown or Shadow Black (our model), and it normally costs €250/£230 (€20/£20 more for the Brown model), but is €170/£150 for the first month - that's an €80/£80 discount. Gotta love Honor! In the box, you get the watch, a fluororubber strap with the Black model, a leather one with the Brown model (hence the markup), and a magnetic charger ending on USB-A. Sadly, the charger has two pins that align with the watch, not a universal wireless...

A few days ago the UK government announced a ban on social media for children under 16, and now the UAE is following suit by effectively banning social media for those under 15. The UAE is the first Arab country to introduce such a measure. Children under 15 are prohibited from creating, using, or operating personal social media accounts. They will not be able to post content, comment, share, or join public groups. Those aged 15 to 16 will be allowed on social media subject to age-appropriate content controls, restrictions on interaction with unknown users, screen-time management...

According to the latest Counterpoint report, the global smart wearable market grew 4% in Q1 2026 compared to the same period last year, which follows a steady recovery in 2025 after a rough 2024. The analysts say Apple's relatively new wearable devices fueled much of the growth, and consumers are now generally more inclined to buy premium smartwatches. The growth of the Chinese smartwatch market has also contributed quite a bit, with Huawei leading the pack domestically, followed by Imoo and Xiaomi. Shipments in the country grew 15% YoY, and Huawei seized 40% of the domestic market...

Today Spotify is launching a new feature called Reserved in the US. This basically means Spotify is holding two concert tickets for an artist's most dedicated fans, and will offer them the chance to grab said tickets before the general sale goes live. The company isn't saying exactly how it determines who to offer these tickets to, as it doesn't want to encourage strategic engagement. But it did say that eligibility is based "on a wide range of signals like streams, saves, and shares, as well as location". The location factor matters because it wants these tickets to only reach fans who...

AI hardware doesn’t use regular DDR memory – it’s too slow. Instead, the preferred format is High Bandwidth Memory or HBM. SK hynix just announced that it has started delivering samples of the latest HBM4E to its customers. HBM4E delivers 16Gbps of bandwidth per pin. For comparison, the previous HBM4 standard did 10Gbps per pin. Samsung started sampling its own HBM4E design a month ago and it claimed 14Gbps per pin. The design currently being shipped to SK hynix’s partners has 12 dies stacked on top of each other. This 12-layer design works out to 48GB of capacity – that is per...

The President of the United States confirmed in a Truth Social post that Apple and Intel have agreed to design and manufacture chips for the Cupertino-based company. Even though there's nothing official from Intel and Apple just yet, Trump's claims on his social media platform corroborate earlier rumors that Apple considers taking back Intel in its supply chain. A partnership between Intel and Apple will bring multiple benefits. Apple will diversify its chip supply chain for its iPhones, Macs and iPads since it's heavily reliant on TSMC right now, which in turn is under heavy strain,...

Motorola's first book-style foldable is impressive, despite not being the best on paper. The Razr Fold isn't the lightest, doesn't have the very best chipset, nor the biggest battery. But somehow, the Razr Fold feels better than most of its rivals. Let's first unbox it. You can get the Razr Fold in 16/512GB configuration and two colors - Pantone Blackened Blue and Lily White, priced at $1,900 or as much €2,000. In the box, you'll find the phone itself, a two-piece case, and a USB-C cable. Motorola also offers the Moto Pen Ultra either as a bonus or as a separate accessory, depending on...

The OnePlus Pad 3 that was released in China at the end of 2024 is not the same tablet as the OnePlus Pad 3 that was released globally in mid-2025. More recently, there was the OnePlus Pad 4, which now serves as the basis of the newly announced Pro tablet for China.

According to a new report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is currently working on the 2nd-generation iPhone Air, which is likely to debut in the spring of 2027. The 1st-gen iPhone Air, meanwhile, was introduced in September 2025.

The Smart has a 7,700mAh battery, while the Honor 600 and 600 Pro have 7,000mAh batteries. Those have smaller 6.57” displays, though, and are thinner at 7.8mm, compared to 8.3mm for the Smart.

The Poco X8 series has been on the shelves for a while, and many of you are probably wondering whether the Xiaomi Poco X8 Pro is enough, or you need to shed a little more for the Pro Max? The price gap between the two models is about €100-120 in Europe and INR 10,000 in India at the time of writing. In mid-range terms, it's a price difference that's hard to ignore. So what does the Pro Max have that the regular Pro doesn't? For starters, the Pro Max has a more powerful SoC, a bigger display and a significantly larger battery. On the other hand, the standard Pro sports the same camera...

Several smartphone makers have already increased the prices of their devices amid rising RAM and flash storage chip costs. While companies like Apple and Samsung have so far absorbed the higher component costs, a new report claims Apple can no longer avoid the price increases. According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, based on an exclusive interview with Apple CEO Tim Cook, the company is expected to raise the prices of some of its products in the near future.

The new Honor Watch 6 has a massive 980mAh battery, which can last up to 35 days in typical usage. The watch also has a lighter and slimmer body, a brighter display and improved health and sports tracking features. The Watch 6 body is made of recycled aluminum alloy with 316L stainless steel elements. It weighs 41g and measures 10.8mm thick – this is particularly impressive when compared against something like the Honor Watch 5 Ultra, which was 11g heavier (it weighs 52g), a bit thicker (11.4mm) and has only a 480mAh battery capacity. We say “only”, but 500mAh or so is actually pretty...

vivo launched the Y500 in China last September, and now a different Y500 family is ready to become available in other markets, comprising three members. One of those is the Y500 that vivo has just started teasing in Nepal. The phone looks nothing like the Chinese Y500.

Back in August of last year, during the introduction of the Pixel 10 family, Google also teased an upcoming smart speaker. Then, it announced it as the Google Home Speaker in October. Now it's finally becoming available, ten months after the first teaser and eight months after the unveiling. The Google Home Speaker will be out on June 25 for $99.99, in four colors: Jade, Berry, Porcelain, and Hazel. Jade and Berry are "US-exclusive colors" for some reason. You can already pre-order one from the Google Store. The Google Home Speaker is powered by an unspecified quad-core CPU using...

Now, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has shared a revised launch timeline for the earbuds, along with a few additional details.

The latest publicity stunt by Nothing involves its founder and CEO, Carl Pei, releasing a video on his Instagram profile. In the video, he addresses Apple, warning the Cupertino company that Nothing is going to steal its customers, "one bored iPhone user at a time". And that's it. Does Tim Cook even know that Nothing exists? Does his successor? Probably not. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Carl Pei (@getpeid) Smaller companies do sometimes pull such stunts, name dropping much bigger competitors, in order to have people watching create an unconscious...

WhatsApp has started testing "view once" messages on iOS. As the name implies, these will be messages that you send and can only be viewed once by the recipient. After they viewed them once, the messages will disappear. To enable the functionality you will just need to long-tap on the Send button, which will then present you with the option to "Send as view once". Engage that and you're done. WhatsApp initially started testing this feature on Android earlier this month, and now the same is happening on iOS. The view once option is already available for photos, videos, and voice...

Sony just announced its first LOFIC image sensor, the Lytia 910. “LOFIC” stands for “Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor”. In other words, it solves the issue of photodiodes becoming saturated by too much light by placing a capacitor next to each diode – this significantly increases the full well capacity of each pixel. According to Sony, the Lytia 910 will have 100dB of dynamic range – with a single exposure! For comparison, a sensor like the Lytia 901 needs multi-frame exposure to get to 100dB. The Sony Lytia 910 supports Triple Conversion Gain (TCG) HDR. This means that each pixel...

We finally got our hands on the Motorola Razr 70 Ultra (aka Razr Ultra 2026 in North America), and it's looking quite familiar. Here it is next to its predecessor - physically, aside from the different back panel on these specific two models, there's not much of a difference. You've got mostly the same displays - 7.0-inch 165Hz on the inside, 4.0-inch cover screen; the same SoC - a now-aging Snapdragon 8 Elite; even the camera system is unchanged, on paper. The main camera has a new sensor with LOFIC technology, offering a wider dynamic range. We'll see about that in our review. The...

Quinn Nelson of Snazzy Labs is one of the first people to receive the Trump Mobile T1 Phone – and one of the funniest to review it. The video below is quite long, but it goes into great detail in examining the hardware and software of the phone. That said, the video actually starts with a 2-minute explanation of how email spam works because the Trump Mobile team had great difficulties in sending emails that don’t immediately get flagged by Gmail. And if you’re wondering whether you should get one, then we’ll just point out that the next 4 minutes of the video deal with all the difficulties...

There's been a lot of talk recently about RAM prices going through the roof because of AI data centers gobbling up the entire supply, yet OnePlus doesn't seem to have gotten the memo. The company has just started offering the 15R with more memory than before, in India only for now. [#InlinePriceWidget,14358,1#] The phone launched last year with 12GB of RAM, and you can still get it with that amount of memory with either 256GB or 512GB of storage.

However, there is also electrochromic dimming for when you want to concentrate on what’s “on...

Xiaomi's upcoming Mix Fold 5 may have just been certified for sale in China with the model number 2608BPX34C. This is interesting because the Mix Fold 5 has reached this step before any of the Xiaomi 18 family members. That could imply that the Mix Fold 5 won't launch alongside those devices in September, but will perhaps be introduced earlier. There's usually something happening in mid-August, and that sounds like a pretty good bet. Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 Unlike the Xiaomi 18 family, the Mix Fold 5 doesn't have to wait for Qualcomm to unveil the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset, since...

A factory supplying iPhone parts in India won't be shut down after all. The plant in Hosur, Tamil Nadu was under investigation by the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board (TNPCB) since December 2025, after farmers near the facility complained about factory wastewater contaminating their land and wells. The TNPCB warned of a possible forced shutdown of the facility. The factory is owned by Indian conglomerate Tata and manufactures iPhone backplates. Given Apple's recent drive to reduce its reliance on Chinese manufacturing, a quarter of iPhones sold worldwide are now made in India, with a...

According to a new rumor from Taiwan, the upcoming iPhone 18 will get 12GB of RAM. The iPhone 17, for comparison, only has 8GB. The added memory will be used to power the new Siri AI features with the most powerful on-device model, which requires a minimum of 12GB of RAM. This will give Siri more expressive voices (along with sliders to personalize them), and will also enable major accuracy improvements for system-wide dictation. The iPhone 17 will miss out on these features when they're released with iOS 27 in the fall, because of the fact that it only has 8GB of RAM. iPhone...

Commodore is making a phone that isn't a full-on smartphone, nor is it a dumbphone. It straddles the line in a very obviously nostalgia-baiting fashion. Before we talk about the new Commodore Callback 8020, let's get something out of the way first. Commodore International Corporation (CIC), which now owns the brand, was established last year by Christian Simpson, a tech YouTuber who is the CEO. He's brought on some ex-employees of the original company, but this isn't the Commodore of old rising from the ashes like a Phoenix. It's an entirely different company which bought the rights to the...

Yesterday, reports claimed that the foldable iPhone Ultra will be delayed until early next year – however, leakster Fixed Focus Digital believes these reports are false. According to FFD’s sources, production capacity is limited, but that doesn’t mean that the announcement has been delayed. Instead, the Ultra will be unveiled alongside the iPhone 18 Pro models in September as originally planned. The actual release of the foldable may be delayed, but only by a month at most, claims the leakster. As we mentioned yesterday, something like this has happened before – the iPhone X was...

OpenAI's ChatGPT had an early start in the AI chatbot race, which cemented its dominant position that it's held for years. However, that is now eroding. For the first time ever, ChatGPT now has less than 50% of the AI chatbot pie, as its competitors have made massive strides lately. By May, ChatGPT's market share was down to 46.4%, followed most closely by Gemini (27.7%) and Claude (10.3%). 46% market share is still impressive, but ChatGPT started at 100% all those years ago, let's not forget. On the other hand, more and more people are using AI chatbots, with ChatGPT going over the...

There was a time when many Twitter alternatives popped up, and Meta couldn't resist throwing its hat in this game too, with Threads. Threads may have started as a way to capture people leaving Twitter after Elon Musk bought it, but it's now all grown up, it seems. The service has reached 500 million monthly active users, having added about 100 million since last August. Undoubtedly, its ties with Instagram have made it easier to jump to than other Twitter wannabes. But Meta says the recently launched communities feature has been driving a lot of the growth. To celebrate the...

Apple is working on iOS 27, but this doesn’t mean that work on the current iOS 26 version has stopped. In fact, iOS 26.5 came out a month ago, which was followed by 26.5.1 to fix a charging issue. Now there is iOS 26.6 on the way too. Currently, Apple is seeding the second developer beta for iOS 26.6 (build number 23G5043d), iPadOS (23G5043d), watchOS (23U5040d) and macOS (25G5043d). The release notes don’t mention any new features, so this appears to be just a round of polish. iOS 26.6 developer beta 1 included a security upgrade for Apple Maps. Also, it added a warning in the Contacts...

The FCC recently approved a $1 billion deal between Verizon and UScellular. The former purchased several cellular spectrums, which help the carrier strengthen its coverage in rural areas. The deal includes AWS-1, AWS-3 and PCS spectrum licenses covering roughly 8% of the US population. However, some people in the industry are opposing the deal and are asking the FCC to review its decision.

According to a new rumor from Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the OnePlus 16's screen will have a 185Hz refresh rate. The company was previously rumored to be testing going up to 240Hz, but it allegedly cancelled those plans as such a high refresh rate "could affect the display" and "may not be feasible for widespread adoption" (both phrases machine translated from Chinese, so there might be some accuracy issues). The display panel itself has already been ordered from China's BOE, and it will be a 6.78-inch size with "1.5K" resolution. Compared to the OnePlus 15's screen, it has higher...

Huawei was the first brand to launch a tri-fold smartphone with its Mate XT Ultimate back in 2024, and it seems it is looking to expand the tri-fold design to the flip-foldable segment. A new patent shared by xleaks7 x PostFast showcases a vertical tri-fold design, which is something we’ve yet to see from any brand in the market. While this is just a mockup of what might eventually make its way to Huawei’s Pura lineup, the concept is quite impressive. Just like the Mate XT Ultimate, the vertical tri-fold features two hinges that help it retract to a neatly compact form...

The Redmi Turbo 5 is now available in India following its launch in China earlier this year. It features a 7,540mAh battery in a compact body and is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8500-Ultra chipset.

It sports a 6.59-inch flat AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 120Hz, 3,500 nits peak brightness, and 1.5K resolution. The Dimensity 8500-Ultra SoC is kept cool with the help of a 3D ice-loop...

Sony barely bothers to make phones anymore, but there is another Japanese company that routinely comes out with new models – meet the Sharp Aquos R11. A sequel to the Aquos R10, this phone adds a telephoto camera, upgrades to a higher tier chipset, offers a mixed bag of display and camera improvements and removes the microSD slot. Okay, that sentence started strong, but didn’t end on a high note. The R11 has a 6.5” Pro IGZO OLED display (1,080 x 2,340px resolution) with 1-240Hz refresh rate. With 3,600 nits peak brightness, it is the brightest display on an Aquos phone yet, beating the R10...

The Osmo Pocket 4P's main rival is the recently announced Insta360 Luna Ultra, another dual-camera pocket gimbal.

Redmi apparently has a very interesting plan to make its upcoming K90 Ultra viably compete with much more expensive flagship smartphones, specifically those equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC. According to a new rumor from the prolific Digital Chat Station on Weibo, the Redmi K90 Ultra will pair the older Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset with an active cooling fan. The fan will ensure sustained performance that will allegedly rival that of devices that don't have a fan, but are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. Redmi K90 Max Additionally, the K90 Ultra is said...

With the higher than usual amount of leaks about the iPhone foldable, it seemed like a done deal that the iPhone Ultra/Fold/whatever-it-gets-called will finally launch this autumn. But maybe it won’t. Companies from the Apple supply chain are now indicating that the launch has been pushed back to early next year: Largan Precision CEO Lin En-ping said (machine translation): “the fourth quarter of this year will be busier than in previous years due to customer new product scheduling factors, with some new products expected to be launched in the third quarter and others postponed to early...

According to a report from last week, Samsung will use ultra-thin glass (UTG) of different thicknesses on the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold8 (wide) and Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra. Both foldables are expected to debut in July alongside the Galaxy Z Flip8. Ultra-thin glass forms the top protective layer of a foldable phone's flexible AMOLED display. It helps reduce the crease while protecting the screen from drops. According to the report, the Galaxy Z Fold8 (wide) will feature a 60μm-thick UTG.

The smartphone world never gets boring – we’ve been covering it for 26 years now and we hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Yes, it’s that time of year again, GSMArena.com is having a birthday party! The last twelve months had their ups and downs – foldables were improving at a rapid pace, the first phones with 10,000mAh batteries were announced and we witnessed the potentially short-lived trend of super-slim phones trying to get off the ground. Also, the EU forced makers to display informative energy labels that also list durability and repairability stats. It was all...

Today Fox Corporation has announced that it's entered a definitive agreement with Roku to purchase it for $160 per share, of which $96 will be cash and the rest will be Fox shares. This transaction values Roku at $22 billion, but it's actually unclear how much Fox is paying. For what it's worth, it says it has obtained $12 billion of fully committed bridge financing from Morgan Stanley for the transaction, so that's probably the ballpark. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of next year, after securing all of the necessary regulatory approvals. This acquisition pairs the...

Today, the UK government has announced that it's going to ban the use of social media for children under 16. The ban will include Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and X, but won't include messaging apps like WhatsApp and Signal.

These restrictions will apply to a wider range of online services, not just social media - gaming sites are included, for example. These restrictions will apply to those under 17.

It was a busy week over at Cupertino, California – the annual WWDC introduced the latest versions of Apple’s key operating systems. Let’s focus in on iOS – what did you think about its new features and improvements? If you need a refresher or you missed the announcement altogether, here’s what’s new in iOS 27. The headlining feature this week – not just for iOS but the whole WWDC – is the new Siri AI. This and the next generation of Apple Intelligence. iOS 27 But there were other changes too, like Apple trying to polish the maligned Liquid Glass design language. Also, iPhones...

Like with other book-style foldables, Motorola Razr Fold’s biggest flaw is its price – indeed, in last week’s poll, the biggest group of voters was the one that gave the price tag a thumbs down. To put it in concrete terms, the Fold has an MSRP of EUR 2,000 / GBP 1,800 / INR 150,000 / USD 1,900 / CAD 2,700. That’s not the only problem, but the high cost of the device amplifies its other issues. For one, Motorola promises 7 years of OS updates and security patches. That’s on par with what other manufacturers promise and better than most other Motorolas. However, Moto just doesn’t have the...

This week saw the annual WWDC from Apple. The week before, it was Google I/O – both are software-focused events, so there wasn’t any new hardware. So, we turn to older models instead. The Samsung Galaxy S26+ is not going to win any popularity contests, but it’s a solid middle-of-the-road smartphone that offers a good balance of features, support and price. Right now, the 512GB model is down to $900 – that’s the same price as the 256GB version, but note that only the Black units have such a deep cut. The Cobalt Violet is the second best at $1,020, which is a rather large gap. If you don’t...

Samsung's Galaxy-branded smartphones and tablets have been lacking a feature that many other Android devices, especially from Chinese brands, had for years. We are talking about the real-time network speed indicator displayed in the status bar, now available for Galaxy users via the QuickStar module in Samsung's Good Lock customization app. Samsung users could get a real-time network speed indicator on their Galaxy phone, but it required a third-party app or enabling a firmware flag if the device was rooted. But that's not needed now if your device is running the Android 17-based One UI 9,...

Camera company Insta360 launched the Luna Ultra three days ago. On the same day, DJI sued Insta360 in the US for how similar the Luna Ultra is to its upcoming Osmo Pocket 4P. Now, Insta360 has filed two countersuits against DJI in the US, asserting DJI infringed its patents related to gimbal and 360° camera tech. Insta360 says the patents infringed by DJI relate to gimbal stabilization, gimbal directional control, camera smooth stabilization, telemetry overlay, and panoramic video stabilization tech, all incorporated into several DJI products, including the Osmo Pocket series, Ronin/RS...

Honor launched the X7e 4G earlier this month, and if you've been wondering whether this phone would get a 5G option, the answer seems to be "yes, kind of". The Honor X7e Plus 5G has now been certified for sale in the UAE by TDRA and it's also been spotted in the SGS database. We're not sure exactly what makes this a "Plus" aside from the 5G connectivity, so we can't be sure how similar it is to the already launched X7e 4G. But based on the SGS certification, we can assume the X7e Plus 5G will be offered in the EU and Saudi Arabia too. Honor X7e Plus 5G...

A couple of days ago, Insta360 made its DJI Osmo Pocket 4P competitor official in the Luna Ultra, and now DJI is launching not one but two lawsuits against Insta360 alleging patent violations. The lawsuits were filed in the US, presumably because DJI feels like it has a better chance of winning over there. In its first lawsuit, DJI accuses Insta360 of infringing its design patents by producing and selling the Luna series, which DJI says closely copies its own designs for the Osmo Pocket line. The resemblance is obvious from a mile away, but whether it's enough to get DJI its coveted...

Today at its developer conference in China, Huawei has taken the wraps off HarmonyOS 7. It comes with an Apple-inspired Liquid Glass-like UI, and a lot of talk about AI because it's 2026 and that's apparently inescapable. HarmonyOS 7 is coming to Huawei's smartphones, tablets, computers, wearables, and IoT devices. It can turn any scene into a 3D effect, presenting it on your screen - this is most obvious on the lock screen. System UI elements, like sliders and buttons, are more glassy, and of course "agentic AI" is built right into its assistant. This now supports more in-app...

Last December, we heard that Waze - a crowd-sourced GPS navigation app - started testing a feature that showed traffic lights to users. Waze - owned by Google - has continued rolling out this feature to more users in multiple countries over the past few months, and a new Reddit thread reveals that it's still gradually rolling it out to users across different regions. The comments under different Reddit threads about Waze's traffic lights feature suggest it's rolling out randomly to users, confirming the company is still testing it before beginning a wider rollout. That explains why there's...

The upcoming Honor X80 Pro Max will not only have the brand's biggest battery so far at 11,000 mAh, but according to a new rumor from Digital Chat Station on Weibo, this device is also likely to break the peak brightness record. According to DCS, it will be advertised to have 10,000-nit peak brightness, which is on another level. It's not very useful, however, since it can technically only apply to one pixel somewhere on the screen, but it's definitely the biggest such number we've seen so far. Thankfully, DCS says the full-screen brightness will also be very high, providing...
