Dreame has unveiled the F20 air fryer in China, expanding its growing range of smart home appliances. The new model focuses on family-sized cooking and introduces features such as dual heat source cooking, a metal inner cavity, and a transparent viewing window designed to make monitoring food preparation easier.

Dreame F20 air fryer specifications and features

The Dreame F20 air fryer comes with a 6-litre cooking basket aimed at households that prepare larger portions in a single cycle. It features a 1700W heating setup with upper and lower heat sources that work together to cook food evenly. According to the company, the design allows 360-degree hot air circulation to reduce the need for manually flipping food while cooking.

The appliance also includes an 11-blade high-speed fan and a curved air duct structure to improve airflow movement inside the chamber. Dreame says this setup helps food cook evenly from multiple directions, especially for dishes such as roasted chicken and grilled snacks. The fryer supports temperatures ranging from 40 to 200 degrees Celsius, allowing it to handle baking, roasting, reheating, and air frying tasks.

Another notable addition is the all-metal inner cavity paired with a titanium ceramic non-stick coating. The company claims the coating can withstand high temperatures up to 400 degrees Celsius and is designed for improved scratch resistance.

A transparent viewing window has also been added so users can check cooking progress without opening the basket. The F20 further includes eight preset cooking modes, touchscreen controls, support for 1 to 60-minute timers, and a 45-minute automatic keep-warm function.

Dreame F20 air fryer price and availability

Dreame has launched the F20 air fryer in China at a price of 299 Yuan (~$45) and is currently listed on JD.com. The details regarding availability in other markets have not been confirmed yet.

Redmi is reportedly working on the Redmi K100 and Redmi K100 Pro Max smartphones, which are expected to debut in China in October this year. Last month, tipster Digital Chat Station claimed that the Pro Max edition would arrive with a significant price increase. Now, in a new Weibo post, the tipster has also hinted at what to expect from the Redmi K100’s pricing.

Redmi K100 chipset, price tipped

A couple of weeks ago, DCS claimed that the 12GB+256GB variants of the Redmi K100 Pro Max, iQOO 16, and OnePlus 16 could see a significant price hike to around 5,000 Yuan (~$730). These devices are said to feature Qualcomm’s next-generation Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset.

Now, the tipster has also shared details about the Redmi K100. According to DCS, the device may arrive with Qualcomm’s previous-generation flagship chip, likely the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The tipster added that smartphones in this segment could start in the “4K” price range in China, which likely refers to around 4,000 Yuan (~$585). This price could apply to the base model, which may feature a 12GB+256GB configuration.

For comparison, the Redmi K90 launched last year at 2,599 Yuan (~$365) for the 12GB+256GB variant. If the rumored pricing turns out to be accurate, the Redmi K100 could see a price increase of nearly 54 percent compared to its predecessor. Such a jump would push the K-series further into flagship pricing territory, moving away from its traditional affordable flagship positioning.

The rest of the Redmi K100 series specifications are yet to be revealed. However, the Redmi K100 Pro Max is expected to feature a 200-megapixel primary camera, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera, according to previous leaks. Readers are advised to wait for newer reports to learn more about these upcoming flagship phones.

Like the Redmi K90 series, the K100 lineup may remain exclusive to the Chinese market. However, rebranded versions of these devices could launch globally as the Poco F9 Pro and Poco F9 Ultra in the first quarter of 2027.

Honor and ARRI announced their collaboration at Mobile World Congress 2026 earlier this year. The upcoming Honor Robot Phone, which is expected to launch in China in August, will be the first phone to feature cinema-grade video recording capabilities developed through this partnership.

The tipster claims that the Honor Magic 9 series will become the first regular smartphone lineup to feature ARRI imaging technology. The series is expected to include multiple models, all of which may feature flat displays.

The tipster further revealed that the lineup will adopt a refreshed design language with a more youthful appearance while retaining its business-oriented identity.

While these devices are expected to launch in China in October, the X10 Ultra may break cover in the first half of 2027. Today, tipsters Digital Chat Station and Smart Pikachu revealed key details about the standard X10.

Oppo Find X10 key details tipped

A new leak from Digital Chat Station has revealed early camera details about what appears to be the upcoming Oppo Find X10 powered by a next-generation MediaTek Dimensity 9-series chipset.

According to the tipster, the latest engineering prototype is currently being tested with a 200-megapixel primary camera featuring a large 1/1.4-inch sensor. The device is also said to be undergoing A/B testing for its 3x periscope telephoto camera setup.

One version reportedly uses a 200-megapixel periscope camera with a 1/1.56-inch sensor, while another variant is testing a new 64-megapixel periscope solution with a 1/2-inch sensor. The tipster added that the large-sensor 200-megapixel periscope setup is based on an older Samsung HP5 solution currently under evaluation, whereas the 64-megapixel option is described as a newer solution being tested internally.

The leak suggests that Oppo is still deciding between a dual 200-megapixel camera approach or a newer single 200-megapixel camera setup for the final hardware configuration.

At the same time, Smart Pikachu has claimed that the Oppo Find X10 will feature a flat display with a 165Hz refresh rate and support for 1.5K resolution. It is also expected to pack a battery with around 8,000mAh capacity.

While the tipster claims that the device will feature dual 200-megapixel cameras, this information appears to be slightly outdated, according to Digital Chat Station. As mentioned above, the rear camera setup may include a 200-megapixel primary camera, either a 200-megapixel or 64-megapixel periscope telephoto camera, and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera.

Previous reports have revealed that the device could be powered by the upcoming 3nm Dimensity 9500+ chipset and may feature a 6.59-inch display. The device is also expected to run Android 17 with ColorOS 17 on top.

The rumor mill is actively leaking details about upcoming flagship phones expected to launch in China from September onward. A fresh leak from popular tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed new details about what is believed to be an upcoming Xiaomi 18 series phone. The leak suggests that the device will arrive with several notable upgrades.

Xiaomi 18 key details tipped

According to the tipster, the engineering prototype of the device is currently in development and could arrive as the only compact flagship phone in its segment to feature both a next-generation 2nm flagship chipset, which appears to be the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, and dual 200-megapixel cameras backed by large image sensors in its rear camera setup.

The leak further claims that the device may pack a battery capacity starting with “7,” suggesting a battery in the 7,000mAh range with improvements over previous generations. Despite the large battery and advanced camera hardware, Xiaomi is reportedly working on a slim and compact design with a flat display featuring ultra-narrow symmetrical bezels enabled by new LIPO packaging technology. While he has not specified the screen size, it may feature a display of around 6.3 inches.

It remains unclear whether the tipster is referring to the standard Xiaomi 18 or the Xiaomi 18 Pro. However, it appears more likely to be the Pro model, as a previous leak from the same source suggested that the 18 Pro would feature dual 200-megapixel cameras, whereas the standard model would include a single 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera in its rear setup.

Xiaomi has launched its flagship phones in September for the past few years. This year as well, the Xiaomi 18 series, which is expected to include the Xiaomi 18, 18 Pro, and 18 Pro Max, may debut in the same month. At present, there is no clarity on the global launch timeframe for these devices.

The latest leak to surface suggests that the rumored X500 Pro Max variant could arrive with a major improvement in the display department. Here’s a look at what to expect from the device.

Vivo X500 Pro Max display resolution tipped

According to tipster Smart Pikachu, the Vivo X500 Pro Max is currently being tested with a 2K resolution display. This would be a significant upgrade, as the Vivo X300 and X300 Pro, which launched last year, featured 1.5K resolution displays. Previous reports have also suggested that the device may feature a massive 6.9-inch display.

Moving to the optics, earlier reports have claimed that the Vivo X500 Pro Max may include a 50-megapixel Sony LYTIA-838 primary sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. Reports indicate that the primary camera may adopt LOFIC sensor technology, which is designed to improve dynamic range by preserving highlight details in high-contrast scenes.

Honor has launched a couple of phones powered by 10,000mAh batteries, and Vivo recently unveiled the Vivo Y600 Pro with a 10,200mAh battery in China. Other brands are also expected to introduce devices with even larger batteries, with Redmi reportedly considering a smartphone equipped with a massive 12,000mAh battery. Here’s a look at which Redmi device could arrive with such an enormous battery capacity.

Redmi could be working on a 12,000mAh battery phone

A recent leak from Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station suggests that Redmi is internally testing a next-generation smartphone equipped with a massive 12,000mAh-class battery. According to the tipster, the device is said to feature new single-cell high-silicon battery technology, which could help achieve higher energy density without significantly increasing the phone’s thickness.

The tipster also revealed that Redmi’s research labs are experimenting with even larger battery capacities using a newly customized material system. While the exact device name has not been mentioned, the leak suggests that the company is exploring major advancements in battery technology for its upcoming smartphones.

In the comments section of the post, the tipster further hinted that the device will be powered by a high-performance chipset, suggesting that Redmi may not limit such large battery capacities to entry-level or low-end devices.

While the tipster did not mention the name of the device, Redmi fans are speculating that it could be the Redmi Turbo 6 Max. The reason behind this speculation is that the current Redmi Turbo 5 Max already packs the largest battery ever seen on a Xiaomi or Redmi phone, featuring a 9,000mAh unit.

In the coming months, Redmi is expected to announce the Redmi Note 17 series in China. Among the lineup, the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max is rumored to feature a 10,000mAh battery. Later this year, Redmi may also unveil the Redmi K100 and K100 Pro Max in October. These flagship phones are expected to pack large batteries, but their capacities may not exceed the 10,000mAh mark.

Therefore, the Redmi Turbo 6 Max appears to be the ideal candidate to feature a 12,000mAh battery. As for the launch timeline, the device is expected to debut in Q1 2027. However, it is advisable to wait for additional reports to get a clearer picture of the final specifications and launch plans.

The tablet is also tipped to feature an eight-speaker setup for an enhanced multimedia experience. The leak mentions that the device may be offered in multiple color options, including Man Dao, Grey Crystal, and Silver Wing editions.

iQOO Neo 11 series in the works

In addition, the tipster hinted that the iQOO Neo 11 series may arrive later than the iQOO 15T. While specific details about the Neo 11 lineup remain under wraps, the leak suggests that the series could bring minor iterative upgrades over its predecessor. There is a possibility that this device could feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, a 6.83-inch 2K LTPS display with support for a 165Hz refresh rate, and an approximately 8,000mAh battery.

The rumor mill is gradually revealing details about the Vivo X500 series, which is expected to launch in China in September this year. Ahead of the launch, a reliable tipster has claimed that the lineup will comprise three models. The same leak also appears to reveal details about the X500 Pro variant.

Alleged Vivo X500 Pro’s key details tipped

According to Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station, an upcoming next-generation flagship smartphone series may include a new “Pro Mini”-positioned model. While the tipster did not explicitly mention the brand name, the device could belong to the upcoming Vivo X500 lineup.

The tipster claims the alleged device could feature a next-generation 2nm flagship chipset along with a new 50-megapixel LOFIC ultra-large primary camera sensor and an upgraded periscope telephoto camera. The chipset being referred to appears to be the upcoming Dimensity 9600.

In the comments section of the post, a user asked whether the “mini” model could feature a 6.5-inch display instead of a smaller screen. In response, Digital Chat Station reportedly stated that the lineup may include small-screen, medium-sized, and large-screen variants. Therefore, it appears that the compact flagship may feature a 6.4-inch display, which is generally expected from a compact smartphone.

Speculating on the Vivo X500 series lineup

Considering that the above-mentioned flagship is expected to feature the Dimensity 9600 chipset, it is possible that this device could launch as the Vivo X500 Pro. Previous reports suggest that the standard X500 variant may feature the forthcoming 3nm Dimensity 9500 Plus chipset, while the large-screen variant could be called the X500 Pro Max.

The X500 Pro Max is also expected to feature a 6.9-inch (or 6.85-inch) display, a Dimensity 9600 Pro chip, and a triple-camera setup consisting of a 50-megapixel LOFIC primary sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.

The post Best Apple Watch Ultra 3 Alternatives appeared first on Gizmochina.

The premium Android tablet space has started seeing more meaningful upgrades lately, and the OnePlus Pad 4 appears to be part of that transition. Ahead of its official launch, the tablet has surfaced with flagship-grade hardware, a slimmer body, and a stronger focus on productivity. After spending some time with the device, the OnePlus Pad 4 gives the impression of a tablet that wants to do far more than basic entertainment and casual browsing.

A slimmer design that feels premium

One of the first things noticeable about the OnePlus Pad 4 is its thin profile. Measuring under 6mm, the tablet feels impressively slim despite carrying a large display and battery. The metal unibody construction adds a premium touch, while the overall weight distribution makes it comfortable to hold during extended use. The Dune Glow color variant seen on our unit has a soft bronze-like finish with a satin texture that looks elegant without appearing overly flashy. However, the rear panel does attract fingerprints quite easily during daily handling.

The camera module has been positioned in the top-right corner when used in landscape orientation. While the module slightly protrudes, it does not create too much wobbling when placed on a flat surface. OnePlus has also included pogo pins for connecting the optional keyboard accessory.

Large display leaves a strong first impression

The OnePlus Pad 4 features a 13.2-inch LCD screen with a 3.4K resolution and a 144Hz adaptive refresh rate. Early impressions of the panel are largely positive. Colours appear vibrant, text looks sharp, and the slim bezels help create a more immersive viewing experience. The display also supports Dolby Vision and reaches up to 1,000 nits brightness in high brightness mode.

The large screen size paired with the 7:5 aspect ratio gives the tablet a more comfortable layout for reading, editing documents, and multitasking. Indoor visibility has been good during initial usage, although direct sunlight does affect readability to some extent.

Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 powers the experience

Powering the tablet is the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset paired with up to 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB UFS 4.1 storage. During early testing, the tablet handled multitasking smoothly, with apps opening quickly and split-screen usage remaining fluid. OnePlus has also included a larger vapour chamber cooling system, which could help maintain performance during demanding tasks and gaming sessions.

While short-term performance appears promising, the real picture regarding thermal management and sustained performance will become clearer after extended testing. Still, the hardware combination suggests that the OnePlus Pad 4 is targeting power users alongside casual consumers.

OxygenOS 16 focuses on productivity

The tablet runs OxygenOS 16, which includes several features designed specifically for larger screens. Multi-window functionality has been improved, allowing users to work across multiple floating apps more comfortably. File management tools have also been redesigned for easier navigation, while cross-device connectivity features aim to create a smoother workflow between smartphones, tablets, and PCs.

OnePlus is also introducing the new OnePlus Stylo Pro alongside the tablet. The stylus supports 16,000 levels of pressure sensitivity and comes with interchangeable tips designed for different use cases. The Writing Tip uses a high-friction material that is said to absorb up to 90 per cent of writing impact for a more paper-like feel, while the Drawing Tip uses a low-friction material aimed at smoother sketching movements. The stylus also supports gesture controls such as pinch, double-tap, and swipe gestures, adding extra shortcuts for productivity and creative tasks. The company is clearly positioning the tablet as a device that can handle both entertainment and productivity-focused workflows.

Large battery could be a key advantage

The OnePlus Pad 4 packs a 13,380mAh battery with support for 80W fast charging. On paper, this could become one of the tablet’s strongest selling points, especially for users who spend long hours streaming content, attending meetings, or working on the move. Actual battery endurance and charging speeds will need deeper testing, but the combination of a large battery and powerful internals looks promising so far.

Based on initial impressions, the OnePlus Pad 4 feels like OnePlus’ most refined tablet yet. Its slim design, large high-refresh-rate display, flagship hardware, and productivity-focused software help it stand out in the premium Android tablet segment. The bigger question now is whether the overall experience can consistently deliver during long-term use. What do you find most interesting about the OnePlus Pad 4?
