Infinix is unveiling the Note 60 series soon, and a week ago the RAM and storage amounts were revealed for the Note 60, Note 60 Pro, and Note 60 Ultra. Now, a pre-order link shared by Infinix's Instagram account for Nigeria outs some more details about the Note 60 Pro. The phone is confirmed to be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 SoC, as previously revealed by its FCC certification. One of the Note 60 Pro's unique selling points will undoubtedly be its dot matrix display that's part of the big camera island. This reminds us of the Nothing Phone (3), and it looks like Infinix really...

Part two, which is supposed to run "during and after Galaxy Unpacked", starts on February 25. While this isn't a 100% official...

Last year, Meta changed the WhatsApp Business Solution Terms in a way that severely limited what third-party AI chatbots are allowed to do (essentially, they were relegated to customer support). The European Commission decided to take a closer look as it sensed potential issues. The investigation is still ongoing, but the Commission feels that it can’t wait for the full investigation to conclude because the delay can cause irreparable harm to competition in the market. “AI markets are developing at rapid pace, so we also need to be swift in our action,” said Teresa Ribera, Executive...

itel quietly unveiled three new models – they have 120Hz 720p+ displays, are rated IP65 and are powered by the 4G-only Unisoc T7250 chipset. The itel City 200 is the most capable model of the trio.

Last week, Dreame held a launch event in Poland, where, alongside several home appliances, the brand showcased three smartphones. These devices are expected to receive a wider rollout across Europe and possibly other regions, though the brand has not yet confirmed any launch details or pricing. The most interesting phone of the bunch is the Dreame RS1. It’s the flagship offering and features an eerily similar spec sheet to the Nubia Z80 Ultra. Dreame RS1 (image: spidersweb.pl) In fact, Dreame’s device is said to feature the exact same key specs but with more flamboyant designs,...

Sony is finally unveiling the WF-1000XM6 earbuds on February 12, and ahead of that, a leak purports to bring us their most important specs.

The buds will get eight-hour battery life, and the case holds two additional...

Google continues to lock down YouTube features as it moves them behind the Premium subscription. First, it disabled background playback loopholes. Now it wants to charge you for song lyrics on YouTube Music. Several posts on the r/YoutubeMusic subreddit show the YouTube Music UI with a warning – “You have X views remaining, unlock lyrics with Premium”, where X starts at 5 and counts down to zero each time you hit the Lyrics tab. YouTube Music now requires a Premium subscription if you want to look at (more than a few) song lyrics This has been in the works for a while now – it...

Xperia fans may have been biting their nails after Sony put its prestigious Bravia TV brand under TCL control, but during the recent earnings call Sony Corporate Executive Officer and CFO Lin Tao said that there will be “no change in status” for the Xperia phones. Further, Japanese site S-Max did some digging and discovered the model names for the Sony Xperia 1 VIII and Xperia 10 VIII in the GSMA IMEI database. These models go in sequence, e.g. the Xperia 1 VII and 10 VII were the PM-150X-BV and PM-151X-BV, respectively (X is a digit denoting regional variants). Sony Xperia 1 VIII...

Lenovo is expected to announce the 5th-generation Lenovo Y700 gaming tablet next month and the company started teasing the device on Weibo.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the update will introduce select components of the revamped, Gemini-powered Siri. Gurman says the first iOS 26.4 beta is expected to be released to developers during the week of February 23, provided there are no further delays.

The fully revamped, chatbot-style Siri is said to be unveiled alongside iOS 27 at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference in...

The Huawei Pura X2 is expected to launch in China around March. Previous rumors have suggested that the foldable will feature larger inner and cover displays, along with a new Kirin 9030 chipset.

The Galaxy S26 Ultra is back on top of our trending chart, making it three wins before it's even officially announced. We've little doubt it will add to its tally once it goes on sale towards the end of the month. The Redmi Turbo 5 Max in second and the Galaxy A56 outgoing mid-ranger complete the podium this week. [#InlinePriceWidget, 13603, 1#] Another phone on its way out - the Galaxy S25 Ultra - sits in fourth, followed by the current Apple flagship - the iPhone 17 Pro Max.

Ever since Trump Mobile announced the T1 Phone, many of us were left wondering whether it's going to happen at all. The T1 Phone is still wrapped in mystery, and it's constantly getting delayed. However, The Verge managed to speak to two executives at the company - Don Hendrickson and Eric Thomas, who gave some extra details of the future device. First of all, the T1 Phone isn't dead. It's just that Trump Mobile is going through some hurdles, and as a result, the handset's release is constantly getting delayed. Some last minute changes to the design and hardware are the reason why....

We are now a week into February, and it's no wonder that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 lineup is dominating the news cycle. The most popular article from the past seven days is about the official teaser from Samsung, showcasing some of the camera upgrades along with a 360-degree spin of the Galaxy S26 Ultra. There are other Galaxy S26 leaks in there as well, but expect even more in the coming weeks as Samsung is gearing up to launch its flagship S series on February 25. Another interesting read for our readers was the Infinix Note 60 series leak, revealing the memory options of all...

A new listing appeared on the Wireless Power Consortium's (WPC) website, revealing an upgraded wireless charging protocol for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 trio. The model numbers listed are believed to belong to the Galaxy S26, S26 Plus and S26 Ultra. According to the document, the three phones will offer the Qi 2.2.1 wireless charging spec, which will enable 20W charging or faster. That theory aligns with an earlier rumor suggesting that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will come with 25W wireless charging support. However, that's only the good news. The bad news is that the handsets comply...

Motorola unveiled the Moto Buds+ TWS earphones in April 2024, and after almost two years, the brand will follow them up with a new pair, called Moto Buds 2 Plus. While we don't know exactly when Motorola will introduce the Moto Buds 2 Plus, thanks to leakster Evan Blass, we do know what they will look like. Blass has shared a couple of images of the Motorola Moto Buds 2 Plus, which reveal that the new pair has a vertical design, unlike the Buds+, which had a horizontal design.

At the end of January, Motorola unveiled two mid-range models, the Moto G67 and Moto G77, and two entry-level phones, the Moto G17 and G17 Power. What do you think – can one of these be your next phone or do you have another model in mind? The Motorola Moto G77 features a 6.78” 120Hz OLED display, a sharp 1,272 x 2,772px panel with 10-bit colors, HDR support and Gorilla Glass 7i protection. That’s great for multimedia, but the Dimensity 6400 chipset isn’t suitable for serious gaming. The G77’s claim to fame is the 108MP main camera with OIS that has native 3x in-sensor zoom. It can...

According to a Chinese tipster on Weibo, OpenAI is gearing up to launch its first hardware product - a pair of earbuds, of course, powered by the company's own AI model. According to the report, the company decided to scale back on its hardware efforts for the time being, likely because of the rising hardware costs. At first, OpenAI was rumored to be working on a small pendant or a pen, which is in line with the CEO Sam Altman's remarks about the device being more "peaceful and calm" than a smartphone. Especially after OpenAI hired Apple's ex-chief designer Jony Ive. Plans have...

Last week we asked you how important magnetic wireless charging is to you. For now, the majority doesn’t particularly care – at best it’s a “nice to have” feature for them but nothing vital. The argument is simple, especially now that the whole world has converged on USB-C for charging – just use a cable. It’s faster and more efficient than any form of wireless charging. There is a caveat – many of the people who reported that they use wired charging only also said that they don’t need top-ups during the day. These days, phone batteries have gotten quite huge, so finding a phone that...

There are two sayings that can’t both be true at the same time: “newer is better” and “old but gold”. Today, we’re going with the second one. Amazon dug up some left over OnePlus 13 units – only 12/256GB – and is selling them at $700. Coincidentally, that is the same price that the new OnePlus 15R sells for (to be fair, that also comes with a $100 gift card or store credit). The OnePlus 13 has the better screen (1440p+ LTPO vs. 1272p+ LTPS), better cameras (triple 50MP including a 3x/73mm periscope vs. no tele camera at all), even its chipset is better – the Snapdragon 8 Elite edges out...

Instagram introduced the Close Friends feature for Instagram Stories back in November 2018, and last September, we learned that WhatsApp was developing that same feature for its users. Now we've learnt that WhatsApp is also working on a Custom Lists feature for status updates, giving its users more privacy control. This revelation comes from the folks at WABetaInfo, who discovered this under-development Custom Lists feature in beta version 2.26.5.11 of WhatsApp for Android. As the name suggests, Custom Lists allows WhatsApp users to create lists for different audiences who can see their...

Spotify has been incredibly busy over the past couple of days. After officially launching Page Match, it's introducing About the Song, which it bills as "a new way to explore the stories behind music". This new feature puts short, swipeable story cards in your Now Playing view, which "explore the meaning behind the music you're hearing". The stories are summarized from third-party sources "to surface interesting details and behind-the-scenes moments", the official press release states. To see this, you need to open the Now Playing view and scroll down to find the About the Song...

The Honor 500 launched back in November, but Honor is already allegedly working on its successor. Now some details about the Honor 600 got outed in China. The phone will allegedly have a 6.57-inch screen. That would be marginally bigger than the Honor 500's 6.55" panel. Perhaps more importantly, the Honor 600 is now being tested with a 9,000 mAh battery. Honor 500 That's 1,000 mAh bigger than its predecessor's, and for a smartphone of this size, it would be record-breaking. Unfortunately, no other details about the Honor 600 have been leaked just yet, but stay tuned and we'll let...

This week we will revisit some old (and some not so old) offers since the prices have been revised even further down. A couple of weeks ago, the Redmi Note 15 Pro was €350 for a 12/512GB unit. Now there is a €30 voucher, which brings the final price down to €320. An 8/256GB version is also available, though since it’s only €20 cheaper, we recommend getting the version with more RAM and double the storage. The Redmi Note 15 Pro has a 6.83” 12-bit 120Hz OLED display and a Dimensity 7300 Ultra chipset. The phone boasts a 200MP main camera (1/1.4” sensor, OIS), but the ultra-wide (8MP) and...

The vivo Y21 launched in 2021, and now the brand is working on the Y21 5G. Weird, we know, but apparently vivo couldn't help but reuse this name, despite there being an infinite number of other options. The Y21 5G will come with a 6,355 mAh rated battery in India and Malaysia, and a 5,090 mAh rated battery elsewhere. These capacities will probably end up advertised as typical 6,500 mAh and 5,250 mAh, respectively. vivo Y21 5G EPREL labels We know all this because the phone has two model numbers for its two versions: V2553, already certified for sale in India and Malaysia by BIS...

Samsung unveiled the Galaxy A56 last March, but it's rumored to introduce the Galaxy A57 5G early, that is, in the second week of this month, meaning next week. While there's no word yet from Samsung on the Galaxy A57 5G, we expect the smartphone to go official soon, as it has been certified by the Bluetooth SIG, bringing it a step closer to launch. Bluetooth SIG has listed multiple models of the Samsung Galaxy A57 5G, which are all region-specific versions, with the one bearing model designation SM-A576S expected to be released exclusively through SK Telecom in South Korea. Leaked...

We get a ton of leaks and rumors about upcoming devices as you probably know, but this one is something special. It's not actually a leak. Instead, someone in charge of Poco's official website for Belgium mistakenly uploaded pricing information for the yet-unannounced Poco X8 Pro and Poco X8 Pro Max. The images in question (which you can see below) were quickly taken down, but the Internet is forever, so there's no hiding now. Let's start with the Poco X8 Pro. It will go for €399.90 in its base configuration with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. The model with 512GB of space will be priced...

Oppo is launching the K14x in India next week, and it's also working on the K14 Turbo and K14 Turbo Pro for China. There will, however, also be a 'vanilla' Oppo K14. This has been revealed through its certification by the Bluetooth SIG. It has the model number CPH2869, whereas the K14x (which was also certified by the same authority) has the model number CPH2871. No other details are known about the K14 yet, but its model number reveals that it's headed to international markets outside of China. We'll let you know when we find out more about it. Via

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...

Brave is a new company headquartered in India – no, it has nothing to do with the browser – that just launched its first device, a large Android tablet.

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. At first glance, the S26 Ultra’s design is reminiscent of the S25 Ultra, though a closer look shows slightly more rounded corners on the upcoming phone. The back of the S26 Ultra also gets a Galaxy Z Fold7 style camera island, replacing the S25 Ultra's individual camera rings. The S26 Ultra is expected to be slightly slimmer than its predecessor, measuring 7.9mm...

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...

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...
