Following up on the earlier leak showing the Galaxy S26 Ultra from all angles through a 360-degree video, Evan Blass (aka @evleaks) is now back with some very official-looking high-res renders depicting what seems to be the vanilla Galaxy S26. Of course there's a chance it's the S26+ in these images, but based on how much the camera island occupies of the total length, it's a tad more likely it's the S26. Samsung Galaxy S26 leaked renders There is, of course, nothing new here, but we are seeing the white color and all of the previously leaked features of the design are...

A report last year claimed that Apple is working on a new AI-powered Health+ service that can give suggestions based on the gathered health data and even suggest form correction during exercise via the iPhone camera. However, the latest rumor is that the company is scaling back those efforts. A few months after Apple moved its Health and Fitness teams under the Services group, led by Eddy Cue, the company is giving up on its rumored Health+ service because Cue thinks Apple isn't competitive enough. According to internal sources, Eddy Cue wanted Apple to move faster and be more...

Apple's latest entry-level iPad dates from March last year, and it comes with the A16 Bionic chip paired with 6GB of RAM. A new rumor from a usually reliable source in Japan today claims that a new entry-level iPad will be made official sometime this spring. This device will look identical to its predecessor, but will be powered by the A18 chip (first seen in the iPhone 16) and will get 8GB of RAM. That means it will support Apple Intelligence, since that RAM amount appears to be the minimum required. It seems like the SoC upgrade and the extra RAM might be the only changes made to...

Today, Oppo has revealed when it plans on launching the Find N6 in China. According to an official Weibo account, the device is coming very soon after the Chinese New Year. That falls on February 17, and given that there are holidays in China even afterwards, it's probably safe to assume that the Find N6 will most likely appear in very late February or early March. That's in line with its predecessor, which last year was unveiled on February 19 and released on February 26. Oppo is promising that the Find N6 will have an even smaller crease than the Find N5, since people responding to polls...

The barrage of Galaxy S26 leaks continues as we get a 360-degree render of the S26 Ultra in its Cobalt Violet color. The video was shared by @evleaks and shows every angle of the upcoming top-tier Galaxy.

Meanwhile, a separate report claims the phone will bring three key upgrades. According to Macwelt, citing industry sources, the iPhone 17e will be unveiled via a press release on February 19.

Last month a report uncovered an upcoming Spotify feature called Page Match, and today this has become official. It's a very nifty one, letting you sync your progress across audiobooks, e-books, and physical books. Here's how it works. If you want to sync where you are in a physical book or e-book to a Spotify audiobook, open the audiobook in Spotify, tap the Page Match button, press Scan to listen, and allow camera access. Then you simply "scan" the page you're on in the physical book or e-book (basically you're taking a photo of it). Then, Spotify will match the page to the corresponding...

Honor is unveiling the Magic V6 foldable smartphone at MWC in Barcelona in a few weeks, and ahead of that, the device has seemingly now been certified for sale in China by 3C. This process reveals two model numbers: PNM-AN10 and PNM-AN20. The former is believed to be the regular model, while the latter will offer satellite connectivity. Most intriguingly, however, this certification also reveals that the Magic V6 will support 120W wired charging. That's the fastest we've ever seen on a foldable smartphone, and should pair very well with the Magic V6's battery capacity, which is...

Yesterday, Google finally confirmed that the Pixel 10a is coming soon - on February 18, to be precise. The company showed us one colorway, but past rumors and leaks claimed there would be four in total, called Obsidian, Fog, Berry, and Lavender.

Google delighted its Pixel users last year by introducing an updated version of Quick Share that worked with Apple's AirDrop, but it has remained exclusive to the Pixel 10 series with a promise to bring it to older Pixel phones as well. Now Eric Kay, Vice President of Engineering at Google, confirmed that Quick Share compatibility with Apple's AirDrop is coming to a wider range of Android devices. Maybe the signs were there all along after Google upgraded the Quick Share Extension from a system app to a full-fledged APK that can be found on Google Play. This was a clear sign that...

According to leakster Yogesh Brar, Xiaomi will launch two of its 17-series flagships on the global market around MWC time (March 2-5) – Europe should get them just before, while the Indian launch is reportedly set for early March.

We’ve been working on our Realme P4 Power review and after a quick detour to try out its performance as a power bank, we are back to our regular tests. Without question, the 10,001mAh battery is the highlight feature of the phone, so that’s where we turn to next.

It measures 162.3 x 76.2 x 9.1mm and weighs 219g, which is pretty standard for a phone with a 6.8” display. The 10,001mAh battery...

Back in January, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra intended for North America ran Geekbench powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC. This was joined by the vanilla S26 destined for North America, also using the same chip. A few days ago, the Korean Galaxy S26 ran Geekbench with the Exynos 2600 SoC at the helm, and now the Korean S26 Ultra has been spotted in the benchmark's database. The good news is that even the Korean version is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. So there's a very high chance that the S26 Ultra will use that SoC across the world, unlike its siblings which...

Analysts polled by the London Stock Exchange had predicted $12.21 billion in revenue and $3.41 EPS. Net income was $3 billion or $2.78 per share.

Realme started off as an independent brand back in 2018, even though it leveraged Oppo's R&D, and at one point we even got unified software experience across all three brands - Oppo, Realme and OnePlus. Still, Realme insisted that it was an independent brand with its own R&D and service centers. However, a new report claims this is changing. Oppo and Realme announced a merger, which means Realme is moving back under the Oppo umbrella. While the changes might be a net positive for the users, since Realme isn't going anywhere as a brand, Realme's employees are getting the short end of...

After Google and Microsoft added AI-powered features to their Chrome and Edge browsers, Firefox was quick to follow and offered a handful of AI features to its users. Those include an AI tool for tab grouping, AI-powered translation and even quick access to an AI chatbot. However, not everyone is on board with the new AI push from companies, and a lot of users expressed their dissatisfaction with Mozilla's decision to shove yet another AI functionality down users' throats. That's why Firefox is adding an AI kill switch with the upcoming February 24 update. Mozilla's CEO,...

Amazon's Alexa+ AI chatbot has been available only to those enrolled in Early Access so far, but that changes today. Now, everyone in the US can access Alexa+. The catch is that those who subscribe to Amazon Prime get free and unlimited use. If you aren't a Prime member, you can either pay $19.99 per month for it, or use the Alexa+ Chat, which is " a text-based chat interface to get quick answers, plan, research, and explore new topics". This is free, but Amazon says it "will be limited based on use", without going into any further detail. Alexa+ is powered by large language models...

Google is preparing a shakeup of its operating system landscape and ChromeOS is getting the short end of the stick. According to recently surfaced court documents from the US vs. Google antitrust case obtained by The Verge, Google is planning to phase out ChromeOS completely by 2034. Why that year specifically? Well, Google’s last major ChromeOS hardware platform release was in 2023 and that means it will have to honor its ten-year support obligation through 2033-2034. The new development comes from a transcript from the case where Google lawyers confirmed that their client was looking...

The Pixel 10a is nearing its launch, and we've got yet another look at the phone. The few press renders come courtesy of Evan Blass and seemingly show the Pixel 10a in Lavender, one of the new colors. As a reminder, solid leaks suggest that the Pixel 10a will come in Lavender, Obsidian, Berry, and Fog. Those are different from the Iris, Obsidian, Peony, and Porcelain of the Pixel 9a. Colors aside, the Pixel 10a will be nearly indistinguishable from the 9a. It's said to pack the same Tensor G4 as the 9a, and not the G5 in the Pixel 10. The Tensor G4 is packaged with 8GB of RAM,...

Last year at the MWC, we got some hands-on time with a curious prototype – the Xiaomi Modular Optical System. Xiaomi described it as a research project, so its future was uncertain. However, Digital Chat Station now reports that this device is going into mass production and will be available commercially early this year (exact date is to be determined). In case you missed it, this is a detachable camera module with a 100MP micro four-thirds sensor with a 35mm f/1.4-f/11 lens and a manual focus ring. The sensor offers native 2x zoom with pixel binning. What sets this apart from previous...

The V70 Elite is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, which is rather significant since this will be the first vivo V-series handset to be powered by a Snapdragon 8-series chipset. The V70 Elite is expected to be unveiled later this month alongside the 'vanilla' V70, followed by the V70 FE at some point in the future. The V70 Elite will come in Passion Red, Sand Beige, and Authentic Black. It will...

Huawei is hosting its first product launch event of the year on February 26. The event is set to take place in Madrid, Spain and while Huawei did not specify the exact product(s) that will be unveiled at the event, all signs point to a new smartwatch. The accompanying event tagline “The race starts here” and #NowIsYourRun suggest we’ll see a new sports-focused smartwatch with an emphasis on running. This could very well be a new addition in its Watch GT Runner series which hasn’t seen a new entry since 2021’s Watch GT Runner. Huawei Watch GT Runner from 2021 Huawei...

Another day, another Galaxy S26 family pricing leak. This one comes from France, so if accurate, do note that these prices may only apply to that one specific market - there are usually slight variations even across the Eurozone countries due to differing levels of VAT in each one. According to this leak, the base 256GB S26 will be €40 more expensive than its predecessor, with the 512GB model going for a whopping €120 more. The 256GB S26+ will apparently cost €100 more than the S25+, and the 512GB version €90 more. The Galaxy S26 Ultra will start at the same price as the S25 Ultra,...

The iQOO 15 Ultra is now official – it is the first iQOO phone with an active cooling fan and it is the first to deserve the “Ultra” moniker (previously, “Pro” models have been the top end). The Ultra draws its power from a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, the same as the vanilla iQOO 15. However, here there is the “Ice Dome” system – a fairly large 17x17mm fan that moves 0.315 cfm (cubic feet per minute). The chipset is paired with 10,667Mbps LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1. The Qualcomm chip is paired with the Q3 gaming chip that handles resolution upscaling and frame...

AnTuTu has just published its rankings for the month of January. These take into account benchmark runs performed in January in China, and the numbers you see below are averages of all the runs. The RedMagic 11 Pro+ continues to reign supreme in the flagship smartphone category, with an average AnTuTu v11 score of 4,104,271. That said, the iQOO 15 Ultra is launching this month, and based on what the brand has said, it will very likely take the throne when February's charts are out. In second place is the Satellite Communication Edition of vivo's X300 Pro, followed by the Realme GT 8...

If you've been patiently waiting for a new Xbox, AMD may have just hinted at how much longer you still need to wait for it to show up. During AMD's earnings call, CEO Lisa Su said work is ongoing on the semi-custom SoC that will be used in the console. With AMD's current scheduling, a 2027 launch should be supported. However, Microsoft will obviously have the final say. What this most likely means is that there's almost no chance to see the next Xbox before 2027, but Microsoft could push it even further. Xbox Series X Microsoft and AMD have embarked on a strategic multi-year...

OnePlus’s upcoming Nord series smartphone, the Nord 6, was recently spotted on Geekbench, offering a glimpse at its chipset.

According to a new report from China, the upcoming Honor Magic V6 and Oppo Find N6 will feature next-gen stylus support. Leakster Smart Pikachu suggests the upcoming foldables will feature “multispectral” stylus support, but he did not go into detail about what this entails. Based on speculation, it could mean additional sensors inside the stylus for improved accuracy, the ability to sense additional levels of pressure, more angles, as well as hover detection. These next-gen styli could also feature improved precision, better palm rejection, lower latency and new AI tricks compared to...

The iQOO 15 Ultra is scheduled to be unveiled later today. The company has been teasing the new model for a couple of weeks now, but it found time for one last teaser video before the big announcement. The video hits all the key points in 2 minutes. It starts with the actively-cooled Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 – yes, iQOO is getting into the cooling fan game. There’s also a Q3 gaming chip that will deal with upscaling and frame gen. And if the RGB LED strip on the back wasn’t enough to convince you that this is a gaming phone, then the 600Hz shoulder triggers might. The phone runs on...

The Samsung Galaxy S26 series is rumored to launch on February 25, though Samsung has yet to officially confirm the date.

Apple used a square sensor for the selfie camera on the iPhone 17 series, and a new rumor suggests other brands may now follow suit. Huawei and Oppo may be the first Chinese brands to adopt the new square sensor in their upcoming phones. Tipster Digital Chat Station claims that Huawei and Oppo are testing 1:1 sensors for front-facing cameras. According to the leak, Huawei could introduce the square selfie sensor on its camera-focused mid-range smartphones, possibly the Nova 16 series. Oppo, meanwhile, is reportedly planning to use the square front camera sensor on its flagship...

While Samsung's latest flagships receive seven years of security updates (and seven major Android OS updates), that hasn't always been the case. And so, five years after their release, the Galaxy S21, S21+, and S21 Ultra are no longer going to receive any updates from this point forward. The trio launched in January of 2021, and they were each promised to receive four major Android updates and five years of security patches. Those five years are up now. So, if you own one of these three phones, perhaps now is the best time to start looking for a replacement, seeing as how you won't be...

vivo may soon expand its X300 series with a new addition, and no, it’s not the much rumored vivo X300 Ultra. According to a new report, an X300e variant has now been spotted online.

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Buds4 and Galaxy Buds4 Pro alongside the Galaxy S26 family later this month, and today some official-looking renders of the earbuds have been outed.
