Google Chrome on desktop is getting two long-awaited features. These included vertical tabs as well as a new immersive reading mode. Both of these features have been available on other browsers for a while now so Chrome is late to the party as usual, but better late than never. The vertical tabs feature is exactly what it sounds like. Instead of having all tabs appear in a row at the top of the browser, they appear in a vertical stack on the side. This allows you to see a lot more tabs at once than what can fit in a horizontal row, and the column can be collapsed to take less...

The Edge 70 Pro is one of three Edge 70 devices still left to be launched according to a recent rumor, and today a couple of purported marketing images showing it have been outed by a tipster over on X. As you can see, the tagline for the device is going to be "seize the night", which makes us think Motorola will heavily market its camera abilities, especially for nighttime photography. The handset will be offered in three colorways, depicted in the image above, though these don't match up with what was recently leaked, so as always don't forget to take any rumor (including this...

Xiaomi is expected to unveil the 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max in September, one year after their predecessors. According to a new rumor from a tipster on X, both upcoming devices will use the same 200MP periscope telephoto camera. The interesting thing is that it will have an 85mm focal length, which is way less than the 115mm focal length of the 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max's 50MP periscope telephoto camera. Thus, the output on the 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max will probably be marketed 3x or 3.5x instead of 5x like on the current generation. Xiaomi 17 Pro Max With the higher-res sensor used, Xiaomi...

The Honor Win launched in December and according to a new leak from China the brand is already busy working on its successor. We will tentatively call this the Honor Win 2. It will allegedly be powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 SoC, but the 'normal' version, not the Pro - Qualcomm is rumored to be releasing two options this year, with the Pro being the proper successor to the 8 Elite Gen 5.

Today a video surfaced showing that the Find X9s Pro will get an optional Hasselblad co-branded teleconverter to take zooming to another level.

Xiaomi President Lu Weibing has just confirmed on Weibo that Redmi is launching the K90 Max later this month.

In the market for a big-screen Android flagship? If so, it's nearly impossible not to come across the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra or the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL. The newly announced Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL are two different worlds, or just the two opposite ends of the spectrum called Android, if you wish. One represents a philosophy built around heavy customizations and heaps upon heaps of features (S26 Ultra), while the other represents Google's take on the Android experience (Pixel 10 Pro XL). That doesn't mean there are no proprietary features on the Pixel, but...

We have some great news. The much-anticipated vivo X300 Ultra has just arrived for review. We're fans of vivo's Ultra, because it always pushes the envelope when it comes to imaging innovation.

The iPhone Fold (or Ultra) has widely been reported to finally become official this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.

Another source claimed it might only be released in December. However, Apple seems to be doing all it can to have the iPhone Fold's arrival fully...

Limited editions are all the rage in many different fields, and Google apparently wants to play this game too. So it's preparing a Pixel phone that will be limited to only one market - it's not limited in the number of units available (that we know of), but will only be sold in Japan. What is this mystery device? Google's official X account for Japan has released the teaser image you can see below. And while it doesn't outright say what device this is, we're going to go ahead and assume it's just a colorway for an existing phone, a hue that won't be available elsewhere. Since...
