A new report from China is confident that the upcoming iPhone Fold will feature a 3D printed hinge to help bring the crease on its folding display to a minimum. This is the first time that we’re seeing specific details about 3D printing used on the iPhone Fold’s hinge, which has so far been rumored to also feature liquid metal as well as dual-layer glass. Oppo Find N6 features a Titanium Flexion Hinge created using 3D Liquid Printing technology It wouldn’t exactly be a breakthrough as Oppo’s Find N6 already pioneered this approach on its second-generation Titanium Flexion hinge. Oppo...

This Sunday marks the 5-year anniversary of LG officially exiting the smartphone business. That wasn’t quite the end of the story – the company wouldn’t stop making phones until the end of May 2021. However, on April 5, 2021, the company officially confirmed that its board of directors had approved the decision to shift focus away from phones. LG sold off its remaining phone inventory with a promise to put out software updates for its final models. And it did – the LG Wing received Android 13 in April 2023 (it originally launched with Android 10). At the same time, the company announced a...

It has been just a couple of weeks since the first discounts for the Galaxy S26 series and now we’re seeing even bigger price cuts. Meanwhile, the Galaxy A57 and A37 launched earlier this week, but the Poco series is offering some stiff competition to both A and S phones. The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra with 512GB storage is now €1,185, which is €45 less than it was two weeks ago. Since then, we have published a comparison with the S25 Ultra and an S26 Ultra vs. iPhone 17 Pro Max article. Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra ...

The vivo X300 Ultra was officially unveiled on Monday with plans to ship it in China first and expand to the global markets soon after. Yes, the X Ultra is going wide for the first time. So, are you tempted? In China, the base 12/256GB model costs CNY 7,000 and started shipping on Friday. This converts to $1,020 / £775 / €885 / ₹95,000. These won’t be the actual prices of the X300 Ultra on the global markets, of course, those will be revealed later. And, again, we can’t use a previous model as context since neither the X100 Ultra nor the X200 Ultra was available globally. But a vivo...

There may be trouble brewing on the horizon for the Galaxy A57 and A37 – the results from last week’s poll are in and the consensus is that the two phones are overpriced. And that there is some serious competition in the mid-range market. Luckily, Galaxy A phones don’t stay at MSRP for long, so the first issue will correct itself soon enough. If it hasn’t already – we’re seeing deals in some markets. Zooming in on the Samsung Galaxy A57, there is interest there, but it is strongly contingent on a lower price or a good bundle deal. At least one person in the comments appreciated the thinner...

Samsung is rumored to be launching a wider form factor Galaxy Z Fold this year alongside the Galaxy Z Fold8, which will keep the taller and narrower form factor of its predecessor. The "Wide Fold" was shown in some leaked renders last month, but it doesn't have an agreed upon name yet, we've heard it referred to as Galaxy Z Fold8 Wide in the past, and today it's the Galaxy Z Wide Fold. Regardless of its name, here are some images depicting its aspect ratio when unfolded. It's 4:3, which is very far from, and much wider than, the Fold7's 1.11:1 (or 3.33:3). So here's what that actually...

We keep hearing about the RAM/chip crisis that's triggered by heavy global investments in AI data centers, which are eating up supply and making prices go up by insane amounts in the process, but what exact amounts are involved for smartphone makers? How much more are they paying? That's what Xiaomi President Lu Weibing has revealed on Weibo today. According to him, for a package of 12GB of RAM plus 512GB of storage, the company is now paying CNY 1,500 ($217) more than in the first quarter of last year (January to March). Redmi K90 Pro Max That's not $217 per RAM/storage package,...

The Samsung Galaxy A37 shares a lot of its core specs with the A57, but is €100/$100 cheaper, which isn't insignificant. Like its more expensive peer, the Galaxy A37 ships with a USB-C cable and SIM tool - no case, and no charger. What the Galaxy A37 is giving up to be cheaper than the Galaxy A57 may not matter all that much to you. The Galaxy A57 has a faster Exynos 1680 SoC, 8/12GB of RAM vs 6/8/12GB of RAM, and a nicer 12MP selfie shooter. And while the A57 gets you a metal frame and a slightly thinner and lighter body, the Galaxy A37 makes do with plastic. Samsung...

This week, Amazon UK is offering vouchers to reduce the prices of the 512GB variants of the three Galaxy S26 phones. But first, here’s an interesting situation – the Google Pixel 10 costs the same as the Galaxy S25. Look closely, though – this is for a 256GB Pixel and only a 128GB Galaxy. Of course, the Galaxy S25 is last year’s model and is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite. That still handily beats Google’s Tensor G5, though. Google Pixel 10 £150 off Read our review ...

Xiaomi launched the 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max with their unique rear screens last September, and today a new rumor purports to bring us some fresh information about their successors. According to a tipster on Weibo, both the Xiaomi 18 Pro and the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max will keep the rear display. Not just that, but an "AI-powered smart window" (machine translated from Chinese) will be available for it. We can't tell you what it will do, but it does mean Xiaomi is still investing in equipping the rear screen with more functionality, which is a good sign that it's not a one-off gimmick as some may...

vivo recently launched its high-end camera flagship, the X300 Ultra, in China. While the device is also expected to make its way to global markets, the company has yet to announce a launch date. Ahead of any official confirmation, pricing details for the EU market have now surfaced online. According to prolific tipster Roland Quandt, citing retailer information, the vivo X300 Ultra could be priced at €1,900 for the 16GB/1TB variant in Europe. The tipster also claims that bundle options with teleconverters may start at around €2,300. Additionally, the Ultra is expected to be...

This is the OnePlus Nord 6, the company's latest mid-range smartphone and successor to last year's Nord 5. It's a variant of the OnePlus Turbo 6 that launched in China earlier this year, and India is currently the only market slated to receive this device. Today, we will be doing an unboxing as well as looking at a few basic specifications of the device. The OnePlus Nord 6 comes in newly designed packaging this year that retains the blue Nord color scheme but does away with the large triple Nord logos that have been a mainstay since the original Nord release in 2020.

That will change later this month, however, with the brand now starting its local teaser campaign for the device by revealing its active matrix Nothing-inspired rear display. Infinix promises it will reveal another feature on April 4 at 12 PM local time, but this phone is already official elsewhere, so the specs aren't a mystery.

The vivo T5 Pro first surfaced in February in an IMEI database, then in March we got two separate spec leaks, and today the brand is finally acknowledging that this phone exists and is coming soon. vivo's official X account for India shared the post you can see below, calling the T5 Pro "the ultimate powerhouse". That tagline is, of course, ridiculous - this isn't a top of the line device, so it's definitely not an ultimate anything. We wonder what the vivo X300 Ultra thinks about this marketing direction. The ultimate powerhouse.. Loading….vivo T5 Pro coming soon.Search now on Flipkart...

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 FE is now listed in the Geekbench online database, as someone in possession of a prototype has run the benchmark (version 6.2.2 to be precise). The phone managed a single-core score of 2,426 and a multi-core score of 8,004, as you can see from the screenshot below. The prototype in question has 8GB of RAM and runs Android 17. It's powered by the Exynos 2500 SoC. The Android version tells us the S26 FE isn't launching anytime soon, since Android 17 hasn't even been released by Google. So it might be a few months away still, which isn't surprising...

The Galaxy A57 is here, and it's an easy pick to be one of Samsung's hottest prospects of the year.

Oppo’s weird obsession with the A6 series is about to turn a new page soon with an international version of the Oppo A6c, which had previously launched in China.

Oppo is set to launch its top-tier Find X9 Ultra later this month in China, and we finally have a live look at it thanks to a live image which appeared on Chinese social media. We can see the design is similar to the previous leaks, but this version has a faux leather back. It’s clearly inspired by traditional cameras and features prominent Hasselblad branding. The substantially large camera island appears to house four cameras, and the markings show it will be able to cover a whopping 14-230mm focal range.

With the release today of CAD-based renders showing the upcoming Google Pixel 11 Pro XL, we now have the full family covered. First it was the Pixel 11 Pro Fold, then came the Pixel 11, most recently the Pixel 11 Pro, and now the Pro XL. Obviously, this looks just like the rest of the non-folding family, adopting the standout feature too - we're talking about the redesigned camera island. It's still oval-shaped and still takes up most of the phone's width, but now has an all-black look from one side to the other. The Pixel 11 Pro XL is said to sport a 6.8-inch screen, just like...

The rising cost of memory chips in the last year or so has forced manufacturers of electronic goods to come up with various strategies to offset the burden, especially smartphone makers that have a portfolio of low-end to mid-range devices. Bumping up the price of more affordable devices could potentially spell trouble. This doesn't necessarily apply to the high-end smartphones, where manufacturers are more inclined to shift the cost to consumers. A report from a Korean publication DealSite suggests that Samsung swapped out its homemade OLED panels in some of its mid-range models,...

In late March, Honor started teasing the upcoming 600 series in Malaysia, and today the brand is continuing the teaser campaign on its global X account. The post associated with the images you can see below reads "get ready for an epic upgrade", which makes us think we should expect the 600 series to be well above the 500 series. Honor 600 series new teasers As you can see, Honor promises a new ultra-thin design, long-lasting endurance, and an "entirely fluid experience". Camera-wise, we're apparently getting "flagship-level details" at night, and this is all powered by a...

If you've been waiting for the AI Inbox in Gmail to become more widely available, today's the day. This was initially only usable by "trusted testers" in January, but has now started rolling out for anyone in the US. There is, however, a gigantic caveat. It's currently only available with the Google AI Ultra subscription, which is a whopping $249.99 per month. There's also the smaller caveat that this is labeled as beta, but then again Gmail itself was in beta for many years, so that's probably less relevant. As you can see from the screenshot above, the AI Inbox isn't really an...

The Redmi K90 Ultra has now received its compulsory 3C certification in China ahead of its launch, following a specs leak from February. The device is confirmed to support 100W fast wired charging. The Redmi K90 Ultra is believed to rock the model number 2604FRK1EC.

The phone will allegedly launch in three colors: Pantone Sparkling Green, Pantone Hematite, and a pink hue that will most likely also get a Pantone color name.

Motorola Razr 60 The Razr 70 has a 6.9-inch...

This is the Tecno Pova Curve 2 and its key asset is its massive 8,000mAh battery. But there's more to it so let's have a look. The phone just launched in India and is available in Mystic Purple, Melting Silver (ours), and Storm Titanium, and in either 8/128GB or 8/256GB options. It starts from INR 27,999 (€258 and £221, converted) and ships with a case, 45W charger, and a USB-A to USB-C cable. Tecno Pova Curve 2 So about that battery. It's truly impressively sized, right? What's more, it's not silicon-carbon chemistry. And then, the phone is under 8 millimeters thick...

Motorola's Edge 70 family is going to get bigger in the near future, according to a new leak from the legendary Evan Blass. The company has already made the Edge 70, Edge 70 Fusion, and Edge 70 Fusion+ official, and the Signature too (which is an honorary member of the family since it was initially rumored to be called Edge 70 Ultra). However, three more devices are allegedly going to join these. We're talking about the Edge 70 Pro, the Edge 70 Pro+, and the Edge 70 Pro Lite.
