This week we found some huge discounts on foldable phones that go up to $500 off. Don’t worry, though, there are plenty of bar phones to go around if you are not a fan of foldables. The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is $300 off at the moment, which makes it cheaper than the Samsung foldable at equal storage levels. The Pixel is down on performance (Tensor G5 vs. Snapdragon 8 Elite), but it does have more RAM than most Z Fold7 configurations (only the 1TB model has 16GB of RAM). The main 48MP camera on the Pixel 10 Pro Fold has a disappointingly small 1/2.0” sensor, which looks insufficient...

Samsung is reportedly working on a wide Galaxy Z Fold, and last year, some speculative renders showed us what this foldable smartphone could look like. However, thanks to One UI 9, we are now getting our best look yet at the wide Galaxy Z Fold. One UI 9 test builds for Samsung's unannounced Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Flip8 recently popped up, and those included a couple of animations, giving us our first sort of official look at the wide Galaxy Z Fold. These animations don't reveal much, but their presence in the One UI 9 builds confirms that Samsung is working on a wide Galaxy Z...

Google is set to unveil the Pixel 10a on February 18, and it has already shown us the phone's design. Not that we didn't know what the Pixel 10a would look like, but it's still good to have an official confirmation ahead of its unveiling. What Google hasn't revealed, though, is the Pixel 10a's specs sheet. While rumors claimed the Pixel 10a would just be a Pixel 9a in different colors, a new leak suggests that won't be the case entirely. German blog WinFuture claims to have retailer data that reveals the Google Pixel 10a will be almost identical to the Pixel 9a, with the Pixel 10a's...

A few days ago, Google said it would soon release the first Android 17 beta, and it did, but it was also quick to halt the release without any explanation. Well, the good news is that Google has resumed releasing Android 17 Beta 1, and it's now available for Pixel devices. Google says this build continues its work for more adaptable Android apps and brings significant enhancements to camera and media capabilities. Additionally, the Android 17 build includes expanded profiles for companion devices and new tools to optimize connectivity. Google has also replaced Developer Previews...

The global version of Honor's Magic7 Pro is finally being blessed with an update to MagicOS 10, the company's skin based on Android 16. Sure, it comes eight months after Google released Android 16, but better late than never, right? [#InlinePriceWidget,13480,1#] The update is MagicOS 10.0.0.121, and it arrives over-the-air as a 3.27GB download, so it's best grabbed over a fast enough network. You of course also need to make sure you have plenty of free space for it to download, extract, and install. The rollout is most likely happening in batches, as is always the case, so if you...

GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu has come out with a new research note, and in it he's outlined five upgrades coming to the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max later this year. First, the Dynamic Island will be smaller, since the flood illuminator used for Face ID will be moved under the display. Next, the 48MP main camera will come with variable aperture. iPhone 18 Pro rumored colors Pu also details three chips coming to the Pro series. The A20 Pro will be powering the devices, and it will be made using TSMC's first-gen 2nm process and a new packaging design. The N2 chip will be the...

A new Poco smartphone, the C81 Pro, is on the way. This was revealed because it was just certified for sale in Thailand by NBTC. It has the model number 25128PC17G, and the certification confirms that it's going to lack 5G support. That and the fact that it's a member of Poco's entry-level C-series means we should expect a low-end device. It was also certified in January by SDPPI in Indonesia, but at the time it was identified as the Poco C81. In the meantime, it seems to have gained the Pro suffix - this is the same device. It's also expected to be sold in some markets as the Redmi A7...

The Honor Pad X8 was announced in 2022, and now the Honor Pad X8b has quietly been launched in Saudi Arabia. We won't even try to make sense of the naming scheme and why, three and a half years after the X8, the X8b has arrived. The new tablet has an 11-inch 1920x1200 IPS LCD screen with a 90Hz refresh rate, a 5MP rear camera, a 5MP front camera, and a 10,100 mAh battery.

Let’s take a closer look at what comes with the LinkBuds Clip. They are packaged in the typical recycled cardboard box that you get with all recent Sony headphones and earbuds. You’re greeted by the charging/carrying case, which...

Apple is obviously facing significant hurdles with the development of its own AI-powered Apple Intelligence and the upgraded virtual assistant Siri. The company first announced Apple Intelligence during WWDC 2024, but failed to deliver. On top of that, Mark Gurman reported that the upgraded Siri won't make it into the iOS 26.4 update later this year, due to issues that came out during internal testing. However, that story was based on an internal report by one of Apple's employees. A company executive was asked about this by CNBC and the answer was simple yet reassuring: "Still on...

Sony has introduced a new color for its flagship wireless WH-1000XM6 headphones. Not to be confused with the recently launched WF-1000XM6, which are the in-ear model. The WH-1000XM6 will now be available in Sand Pink. This is a very light, pastel shade of pink that really challenges the notion of what pink really is. You get the same soft-touch matte texture all over with a fine speckled finish when viewed up close. Completing the look are rose gold highlights around the hinges. The Sand Pink is the fourth color option for these headphones, which were previously...

Samsung's Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 are now listed in the Google Play Console, a sure sign that their official launch is very near. The listings confirm that the Galaxy A37 is powered by Samsung's Exynos 1480 SoC, paired with 6GB of RAM in one variant (though more will undoubtedly be offered).

Apple’s new affordable iPhone is rumored to launch later this month, with one leak pointing to a February 19 announcement. While nothing has been confirmed, YouTuber Jon Prosser has shared what appears to be the first look at the upcoming iPhone 17e. The video shared by the YouTuber showcases the iPhone 17e with a Dynamic Island and MagSafe charging support. However, most recent leaks and reports have suggested that Apple won’t be including the Dynamic Island on the upcoming iPhone. Instead, it’s likely to stick to the notch present on the iPhone 16e. In terms of design, the...

Chinese smartphone makers' obsession with Apple and 'emulating' the Cupertino company's designs shows no sign of stopping. Today a new render leaked in China, purportedly showing us the Xiaomi 18, which is only due to be unveiled in September. There's still a very long time to go until then, which is why you should take this with a grain of salt, but anyway, here it is: the iPhone 16 Pro in all its glory. Sorry, we meant the Xiaomi 18. Take a look: The comparison with Apple's device from 2024 is pretty much inevitable. The design of the camera island is very close, even though...

The fact that it might actually be nothing more than a re-released Pixel 9a hasn't stopped Google's upcoming Pixel 10a from leaking like crazy in the past few weeks, ahead of its full unveiling that's taking place on February 18. Today we've already seen the Pixel 10a's EU Energy Label revealing its IP68 dust and water resistance rating, A rating for drops, B rating for repairability, and the fact that its battery will charge for 1,000 cycles before losing more than 20% of its initial capacity.

The Note 60 Ultra is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8400 SoC, which is a bit of a shame since the Dimensity 8500 was made official recently.

More specifically, people looking to buy certain custom MacBook Pro configurations, Apple TV, iPad Air and iPhone 16e are facing delays or trouble finding units at Apple's physical stores. This, in turn, could mean one thing in Apple's world - an upgrade is coming. This corroborates Mark Gurman's earlier reports that the company is gearing up to announce a new iPhone 17e and upgrade the iPad Air. Of course, low inventory doesn't always mean that, but the iPhone 16e was launched exactly a year...

HBM4 chips are fabbed on a 6th generation of a 10nm-class DRAM process called “1c”. Note that DRAM isn’t like a CPU core, so the nodes aren’t comparable.

This surpasses the industry standard, which is set at 8Gbps, by 46%. Since there are 2,048 pins the total bandwidth is a massive 3.3 terabytes...
