OpenAI's first device will be a screen-less smart speaker, according to a new report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. It will be designed to be used inside the home but will be easy to move around the house and will use a rechargeable battery. Like any other smart speaker, it will be able to control smart home appliances, play media, answer questions, respond to messages, and of course this being an OpenAI product, it will have ChatGPT built-in. The chatbot will use a more advanced version of the new ChatGPT voice mode, with which you can have a true back-and-forth conversation, interrupting...

During its yesterday's event in Malaysia, Huawei introduced the Pura 90s series along with the FreeClip 2 S and MatePad Air (2026). We had our chance to meet the devices in person, so here's a quick rundown of the updated MatePad Air for this year. MatePad Air (2026) Just like its predecessor, the MatePad Air (2026) features a 12-inch display, but instead of a plain old IPS LCD panel, the newer Air swaps it out for a brighter OLED one with a 144Hz refresh rate. What's more, the screen features Huawei's PaperMatte coating that makes it look like paper. Reflections are reduced,...

We recently saw leaked renders showing Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, and now it's time for their full specs. These have been leaked today by a usually reliable source, so let's dive right in. As you may already know, the Galaxy Z Fold8 will be the wide-style foldable that's aiming to compete with the iPhone Ultra. This will have a 7.6-inch 2448x1848 main folding screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio, and a 5.5-inch cover display with 1248x1972 resolution. Both panels will have 120Hz refresh rate. The display substrate is titanium now, which should make the crease...

Running an app store is a profitable business – one that platform makers are keen to protect. That used to be the case with Google too, but the conclusion of a 6-year legal battle with Epic Games has come to a surprise ending that will make third-party app stores that much more accessible. The story started in 2020 when Epic sued Google, alleging that Google held a monopoly in the Android app distribution market and in-app billing services. A jury sided with Epic, but this then went through an appeal process until, eventually, the two companies reached a settlement agreement in...

The best part about pre-ordering a new Samsung smartphone has, for the past few years, been that you can get a 'free' storage upgrade. Pay for one storage tier, get the higher one for no additional cost. However, a new report from Korea today claims Samsung will not be offering this perk for the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold8, Fold8 Ultra, and Flip8, which it will unveil on July 22. Instead, the company will only cover 50% of the price difference between the 256GB option and the 512GB model. So basically, you'll pay half of the difference to get the higher storage tier when you...

It used to be that all iPhones bought directly from Apple in the US came unlocked, meaning that you could use them with any carrier – even if you bought the phone with financing from another carrier. Now that’s no longer the case. Apple has updated its FAQ and it now says that iPhones bought with carrier financing are locked to that carrier until the phone is paid off. Once you complete the final payment, the phone will be unlocked and you will be free to switch to a different carrier. The updated FAQ states that you no longer get an unlocked phone with carrier financing This...

While you may very well have been underwhelmed by Apple Intelligence, at least you had access to it. That hasn't been the case for those in China so far, even as we are now 21 months after the initial launch. However, that is finally about to change. Apple Intelligence has now received the green light from the Chinese government. The service has been registered with the Chinese cyberspace regulator for use on iPhones in the country. All AI products need to undergo this step before they can be offered in China. In China, Apple Intelligence will allegedly "incorporate capabilities...

We’re surprised it took this long, but the timing makes a lot of sense given how expensive gaming hardware has gotten. GeForce Now, Nvidia’s game streaming service, is now available in India. The service first entered the country with an open beta in April, but that only offered 90-day passes. Now, it’s widely available and it offers monthly passes instead. The free ad-supported tier gets you 1080p @ 60fps streaming with gaming sessions limited to 1 hour. This is a great way to test things out (especially your Internet connection) and might work for games that are played in short...

Multiple Internet giants have found themselves under the scrutiny of lawmakers, regulators and organizations concerned with the safety of children on the web. Google and its AI Search are the latest to draw criticism. Interestingly, it may have been the success of the Chromebooks that caused this – they are very popular as school laptops. The Common Sense Media organization explains that the thing that separates Google’s AI from all the other AI services is that it is “ubiquitous on children's personal and school-issued devices.” Who needs to learn math when AI can just solve the...

Realme today expanded its portfolio of Narzo Series smartphones with the unveiling of the Narzo 100x. The biggest highlight of the Realme Narzo 100x is its 8,000 mAh Titan battery, advertised to deliver up to three days of battery life on a single charge. The 8.8mm thick smartphone supports 45W charging, all-scenario bypass charging, and reverse wired charging. The Realme Narzo 100x is built around a 6.81" HD+ LCD with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1,200 nits peak brightness. Realme says the smartphone will offer consistent 60FPS smoothness in BGMI, MLBB, and Free Fire, but hasn't...

Google Images launched 25 years ago. Back then it was as simple as it gets – type in some words and get matching images as a result. The image search feature has grown considerably more capable over the intervening years and is now getting a major overhaul to celebrate its quarter century anniversary. Google Images is getting a new home page. You may not see anything different yet – it will roll out over the coming weeks starting with the desktop page in US English. But once it goes live, you will see something that looks and works kind of like Pinterest. The new Collections...

The OnePlus N6 has barely been on the market for a month, but the company is already preparing to expand the lineup. OnePlus has confirmed that a new N6 series smartphone, the OnePlus N6x, will be launching soon. Amazon India has already put up a dedicated microsite for the OnePlus N6x, although it doesn't reveal any specifications or availability details just yet. Meanwhile, a tipster claims that the upcoming smartphone will feature familiar hardware, suggesting it could share many of its specifications with the recently launched OnePlus N6. OnePlus N6 The OnePlus N6...

Motorola has expanded its Edge 70 lineup in India with the launch of the Edge 70 Max. The new smartphone features a large 6.8-inch display, a 7,100mAh battery, and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. The 6.8-inch AMOLED display offers a Quad HD+ resolution, a refresh rate of 144Hz, a claimed peak brightness of 7,000 nits, and HDR10+ support. It also comes with an in-display fingerprint scanner. It is available with up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB of UFS 4.1 storage. The phone ships with Android 16 with Motorola promising 3 OS upgrades along with 5 years of security updates. For...

Last week, some Samsung Health users reported seeing a notice when opening the app, asking them to consent to the use of their health data for AI training and modeling. While users had the option to withdraw consent, the notice stated that doing so would lead to the deletion of their health data and that they would be unable to sync it with their Samsung account. Samsung received flak from users for this and has now published an in-app notice clarifying the matter. Samsung says that the health data collected for AI training and modeling is separate from the data used to provide Samsung...

We're just a weekend away from Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event, where the company is expected to unveil its latest Galaxy Z foldables and Galaxy Watches. Ahead of it, another batch of official-looking renders showcasing the entire lineup has surfaced. The leak also reveals two online-exclusive color options for the wide Galaxy Z Fold8 and the Galaxy Z Flip8. One of the official-looking renders shows the Galaxy Z Fold8, Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Flip8 side by side. Another image, meanwhile, pairs the Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra with the Galaxy Watch9 and...

Earlier today, Redmi unveiled the Note 17 and Note 17 Pro in China. The former has the model number 26021RN18C. Meanwhile, in the latest HyperOS firmware build, references to a Poco M8 Power have been found, and this one has the model number 26021PC18I. Let's unpack that. "RN" stands for Redmi, "PC" stands for Poco. The last character in the model number denotes the region it's intended for - "C" is for China, "I" is for India. So, with all of that in mind, it certainly looks like the Poco M8 Power is headed to India at least - of course it could also be offered in other markets, but it's...

iQOO will launch the Z11 Lite on July 24. The brand previously confirmed that the Z11 Lite will support 44W charging, and it has now revealed that the smartphone will pack a 6,500 mAh battery. Additionally, iQOO said that the Z11 Lite will support reverse charging and bypass charging, with the battery retaining 80% of its health even after five years. Besides, with the Super Battery Saver Mode, the iQOO Z11 Lite will enable 30 minutes of 4G calls, 6 minutes of Google Maps use, 12 minutes of Instagram browsing, or 8 minutes of WhatsApp use with just 1% battery left. iQOO Z11 Lite...

The Galaxy Z Fold7 featured a third generation of Armor FlexHinge, which was 27% thinner and 43% lighter than the hinge inside the Z Fold6. Now the company is introducing the next innovation that will make foldable displays even tougher and slimmer while minimizing the crease – Flex Titanium. This is just a preview of what is to come on Wednesday next week. The Flex Titanium technology promises a more refined viewing experience for the new Z Folds, while making the display more resistant to external shocks and the wear and tear of being folded and unfolded hundreds of thousands of...

Huawei just announced its new Pura 90s phones - the Pura 90s Pro and the Pura 90s Pro Max. Two very similar phones but for slightly different crowds. Of course, the Pro Max gives you all the top-end features while the 90s Pro comes in a more compact footprint with minimal trade-offs. We already did a detailed hands-on of the Pura 90s Pro Max showing what the camera system is capable of. Huawei Pura 90s Pro The most notable difference between the two devices is the display size. The Pura 90s Pro gets a 6.6-inch screen, but doesn't skimp on the features. Just like the Pura 90s...

Omdia released its global smartphone market share report for the second quarter of this year (April-June) yesterday, and today it's following up with the picture for the Mainland China market. Overall shipments have declined by 2% compared to Q2 2025. Despite that, both Huawei and Apple have managed to grow their shipments and market shares. As you can see below, Huawei shipped a record 15.2 million devices for a 23% market share, up from 12.2 million and 18%, respectively, in the year-ago quarter. Apple, on the other hand, shipped 12.4 million iPhones for a 19% market share, up...

Back in April a rumor from Korea claimed that Samsung was redesigning the rears of the entire Galaxy S27 family, with the camera island being moved around in order for the company to be able to finally fit magnets for wireless charging to its flagship phones. A few days later the speculative render seen below emerged, purportedly showing the design of the Galaxy S27 Ultra (which is also expected to come with only three cameras). However, today a new rumor from Korea claims that Samsung hasn't decided anything yet. This source says all of the rumored designs (including the one...

Unlike the Pixel 11 lineup, the Pixel Watch 5 hasn't been the subject of many leaks. However, details about its pricing and color options leaked recently, and now the smartwatch has surfaced in official-looking press renders ahead of its expected debut on August 12. The Tide Chart, in collaboration with OnLeaks, has shared official-looking renders of the Pixel Watch 5, showcasing the smartwatch in four case finishes and two size options. Pixel Watch 5 45mm in Dark Anthracite and Pyrite Looking at the leaked renders, the Pixel Watch 5 appears to retain a design that's largely...

Spotify is rolling out a new feature starting today. Basically, it's a built-in AI chatbot that lets you talk to Spotify both in the Home view and in Now Playing. This will only be available on mobile. You aren't limited to talking, however - you can also type your requests or questions. You can have a back-and-forth conversation with Spotify, just like you can with any other AI chatbot. You can learn more about the music you love, revisit your listening history, go deeper on podcasts and audiobooks - or just ask to hear some artists you have never heard before. Once...

Despite showcasing its Robot Phone at CES and MWC earlier this year, Honor has yet to reveal its hardware details. A new leak, however, has now revealed the upcoming phone’s key specifications. Tipster Digital Chat Station has shared the alleged specs of the Honor Robot Phone on Weibo ahead of its rumored debut next month. According to the tipster, the phone will sport a flat display with a 1.5K resolution measuring between 6.3 and 6.4 inches. It is said to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. In the camera department, the Robot Phone is tipped to feature a 200MP...

Apple went through several iOS 27 betas, but those were only for developers. Now, the company has released the first public beta of iOS 27 – as well as public betas for the related iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, macOS 27 and tvOS 27. The stable release is coming this fall. But if you want to get an early start, you can sign up for the Apple Beta Software Program and install version 27 on your device today. Which phones are supported? Apple didn’t drop compatibility, so if your phone runs version 26, it can run version 27 too. This means iPhone 11 or newer (including iPhone SE (2020) or...

Last month, the European Commission (EC) announced that it would be forcing Meta to allow third-party AI chatbots in WhatsApp for free in the European Economic Area (EEA). The decision followed Meta's ban of third-party AI chatbots in WhatsApp last November, and the company's subsequent move from March when it once again accepted third-party AI chatbots in WhatsApp, but only for a fee. As a consequence of the EC's decision, today ChatGPT is back on WhatsApp in the EEA. You can chat with it in WhatsApp at the phone number 1-800-CHATGPT, without needing to install the ChatGPT...

Google expanded the availability of Gemini inside the Chrome browser to multiple countries back in June, and today it's finally made it to one of the biggest markets that it was missing from: the UK. The rollout is starting with Chrome on desktop, and Gemini will become available in Chrome on iOS in the UK next month. Gemini in Chrome can chat with you, summarize open tabs, compare information across multiple tabs, remember context from past conversations, generate and edit images with Nano Banana 2, and much more, all without you having to leave the page you’re...

There are smartphones with e-ink displays and while they are great for reading, Android just wasn’t designed with slow refresh rate speeds in mind. What can be done about it? Well, e-ink panels are getting faster and faster, but they still aren’t “there” yet. So, Hisense had an alternative solution in mind. And so it built the Hisense A10. On its front is a 6.13” e-ink panel, similar to what you would find on a Kindle ebook reader. The solution comes in the form of a detachable LCD that you can magnetically snap on the back of the phone. Right now, the exact specifics of this add-on...

Xiaomi introduced the Redmi Note 17 series in China with much larger batteries than their predecessors (the Note 15 series) along with new chipsets. The Pro model is the small one with a 6.83” display – you read that right, this is the small display this time around. This is because the Redmi Note 17 has a massive 7” display. It is a 120Hz OLED panel with 1,080 x 2,396px resolution and it can put out 1,800 nits of peak brightness. The touchscreen can work with wet or gloved hands. You would think that such a large display would be paired with a large battery – and you’d be right!...

The iQOO 16 is rumored to launch in September, and while iQOO hasn't divulged anything about it yet, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has shared new details about the smartphone. In a post on Weibo, DCS said that a smartphone powered by the unannounced 2nm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro will feature symmetrical dual speakers (1115 series) and an X-axis motor (0916 series). While the phone's name isn't mentioned in the Weibo post, DCS is believed to be referring to the iQOO 16. The tipster also claimed that this smartphone is tested with a primary camera that uses the 50MP OmniVision...

The first details about the upcoming Redmi K100 Pro Max were outed all the way back in March, and today Digital Chat Station has shared some new information about the device on Weibo. Interestingly, in March the K100 Pro Max was said to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chipset, but now it seems like Redmi has instead opted for the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. If the original plan was to go with the next-gen SoC, then this is most likely a cost-cutting measure related to the ongoing chip shortage. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 is clearly going to be cheaper than its successor, and...

Almost exactly a month after it released the third One UI 9 beta for the Galaxy S26 devices, Samsung has today started rolling out the fourth beta. This appears to be available in India first, with the firmware version ending in ZZG4. If you are enrolled in the One UI 9 beta program, you will of course receive this as an over-the-air update soon. It comes in at around 1.25GB, so make sure you download it over a fast enough network. The changelog mentions a lot of bug fixes as you can see in the screenshots below. Problems with the clock size, Quick Panel, navigation bar, timer...

Samsung is holding its next Unpacked event on July 22 in London, and on that occasion it's going to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold8, Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Flip8, but also, according to a ton of past rumors, the Galaxy Watch Ultra2 and the Galaxy Watch9.

Samsung says the Galaxy Watch will play "a critical role as a health-first, always-on gateway for advanced, personalized AI". The company promises that...

With just hours to go until the Redmi Note 17 series goes official in China, Redmi has revealed more color options for the Note 17 and Note 17 Pro. Earlier teasers had showcased the Note 17 Pro in Clear Blue and the standard Note 17 in the Meteor Purple finish.

The company has already confirmed that the Note 17 will feature a 7-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, an 8,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging support, and a 50-megapixel primary rear...

Google will unveil the Pixel 11 series on August 12. Ahead of the launch, leaked renders have already revealed the designs of the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold. New leaks have now shed light on the lineup's US pricing and key specs. According to a report by Droid Life, citing since-deleted Amazon listings for the Pixel 11 lineup, the base Pixel 11 will start at $899 for the 256GB variant. The alleged listings suggest that Google has dropped the 128GB base storage option. Meanwhile, the 512GB variant of the Pixel 11 is listed with a price tag of...

At its event in Malaysia, Huawei announced not just its Pura 90s series flagship phones, but also the FreeClip 2 S Signature Edition and the MatePad Air (2026). Both the FreeClips and the MatePad are not entirely generational upgrades but more like a refresh. FreeClip 2 S Signature Edition Let's start with the FreeClip 2 S buds, which are still rocking dual-diaphragm drivers, three mics used for noise cancellation and up to 9 hours of playback. Throw in the case, and you get 38 hours of total listening time. What's new here is the updated Adaptive Volume algorithm. The buds...

Earlier this year, Huawei unveiled the Pura 90 Pro and 90 Pro Max for the Chinese market. Now the company is introducing a pair of “90s” models which have largely the same hardware but will be available on the global market. The two Pura 90s Pro models share a lot of the same hardware. The main differences between them are the screen size – 6.6” for the Pura 90s Pro and 6.9” for the Pro Max – plus things like charging speed and telephoto cameras. Huawei Pura 90s Pro Max The Huawei Pura 90s Pro Max stands out with the first 200MP RYYB sensor in the industry – Huawei has a...

Back in April, we learned that WhatsApp was developing a feature that would let its Android users back up their WhatsApp chats on its own encrypted cloud storage. Now we hear that the Meta-owned company is testing this feature on iOS as well. This revelation comes from the folks at WABetaInfo, who discovered this development on beta version 26.28.10.16 of WhatsApp for iOS. Right now, Android users can back up their chats to Google Drive, while iOS users can back up theirs to iCloud. This new feature allows Android and iOS users to choose between Google Drive/iCloud and WhatsApp's cloud...

HMD launched the Fusion smartphone with a modular design back in September of 2024, and a Fusion 2 was rumored in October of last year. However, it hasn't arrived yet, and now a new rumor from a usually reliable source of HMD-related information purports to explain why. [#InlinePriceWidget,13304,1#] Apparently HMD may have canceled the project altogether, leaving the original Fusion as its only modular smartphone. The cancelation "hasn't been confirmed yet", but if it does go through, it would be due to "high manufacturing costs and profitability issues". That makes sense since...

Sony has launched its LinkBuds Clip model in the Indian market. They are priced at INR 18,990, and will be available starting July 13 on online as well as offline retailers. The LinkBuds Clip are an open-ear earbuds in the clip-style design that is currently in vogue.

Like other clip-style earbuds, the LinkBuds Clip feature a flexible clip that can adjust to your ear size and shape, along with a pair of what Sony calls Air Fitting Cushions that...

The writing has been on the wall for months, but this week may finally bring the moment of truth. If the latest rumors prove accurate, OnePlus could be about to shut down its global operations, bringing one of Android's most recognizable brands to an abrupt end. OnePlus started off as an independent brand. Then, in the past few years, Oppo's influence over it grew from an open secret for those in the know to a very obvious fact. OnePlus' transition into oblivion may be finalized later this week, according to a new report from a usually reliable source. Oppo and OnePlus are allegedly...

Google is announcing the Pixel 11 family on August 12, and we've already seen the Pixel 11 in CAD-based renders a while back. Now, three new renders have surfaced seemingly depicting the device in three different colors. These have been found on Amazon as part of listings that appear to be placeholders or drafts for the upcoming device. The listings in question are sold and shipped by Amazon itself and show as part of the Google Store on the platform. Google Pixel 11 renders However, the names of these colors don't quite match what has been leaked so far. They are called...

The European Commission will propose new rules limiting children's access to social media across the EU later this year, per Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The move follows recommendations from an expert panel tasked with finding ways to better protect minors from online harms. Under the recommendations, children under 13 would only be allowed limited, supervised access to social media. Restrictions would gradually ease as they get older, however. The panel also called for platforms to prove they're safe for young users before granting access, shifting more responsibility...

A Chinese company you may have never heard of has just announced that it's making a smartphone - or at least sourcing one from an ODM. But wait, this is no regular smartphone; it's the world's first AI agentic phone. And guess what, it's being hyped before OpenAI got a chance to hype up its own rumored smartphone. The company in question is called StepFun - it was founded in 2023 by former Microsoft employees in Shanghai, and the phone they are teasing today is called the StepX Neo. StepFun is no stranger to on-device AI, but they've so far provided service integrations to manufacturers...

According to a new report by Omdia, global smartphone shipments fell 4% in the second quarter of this year (April-June) compared to the same period last year. Obviously, the ongoing memory crisis is to blame, pushing up component costs and making devices more expensive. However, both Samsung and Apple managed to grow their market shares - the former from 20% to 22%, and the latter from 16% to 20%. Meanwhile, Xiaomi's market share fell from 15% to 11%, Oppo's from 12% to 10%, and vivo's from 9% to 8%. As you can see, Samsung still leads the pack and Apple is now a close second....

According to a new report from China, Google's Tensor G6 chipset that will be in the Pixel 11 series will be the first smartphone chip to use TSMC’s 2nm process, beating Qualcomm and its Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, MediaTek's Dimensity 9600, and Apple's A20 Pro to the punch. This makes sense as those three SoCs are only expected to be inside devices that are going to be announced in September, while Google has already confirmed that it's unveiling the Pixel 11 family on August 12. An FCC filing for the Pixel 11 Pro Fold has revealed what has been rumored in the past, namely that...

Rising component prices forced Samsung to increase the prices of some of its phones in several regions. But the effects of the current market conditions reach further than that – repair costs are going up as well. In its home country of South Korea, Samsung has raised the price of repair materials for smartphones by an average of 5%, reports The Chosun. Other segments are affected as well – e.g. materials for home appliance repair now cost 9% more on average. To put this in monetary terms, the average smartphone repair job became KRW 11,000 more expensive – this converts to $7.37 /...

We are less than two weeks away from Samsung's next Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22, when we expect to see not just the new Galaxy foldables, but the next-generation Galaxy Watches, too. And we've already seen quite a few leaks in the past few weeks, so we have a good idea of what to expect from the upcoming Galaxy Watch9 and Watch Ultra2. However, while the previous reports were mostly about looks and straps, the one coming from WinFuture talks about the hardware, and judging by the hardware upgrades, they may be used to justify the sudden price hike. The most notable change with...

Update: Ice Universe is convinced that the video actually shows a Galaxy Z Fold7 and not the Z Fold8 Ultra. Among other clues, Ice points out that the Z Fold8 generation is supposed to introduce an anti-reflective film and the device in the video is showing a lot of reflections. Also, the punch hole for the selfie camera is bigger than it is supposed to be - this is something that Ice has been keeping a close eye on. At CES, Samsung showcased a foldable display with no visible crease. We all knew this was a teaser for the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra and now we have proof – someone from...

Xiaomi recently revealed that the Redmi Note 17 will have a 7” screen – once upon a time this would have been a tablet, not a phone. The company also confirmed that the phone will have an 8,000mAh battery, which isn’t small, but it is smaller than the 9,000mAh battery of the Redmi Note 17 Pro. Display card with Redmi Note 17 details Someone took a photo of a display card (shared by Android Treasure) – this card revealed some additional details. For starters, the phone will support 45W wired charging and 22.5W reverse charging. For comparison, the Pro model will do 67W...

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold8 series and the Galaxy Z Flip8 at its Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22. Ahead of the launch, a new leak has revealed new details about the Galaxy Z Flip8’s weight and thickness. According to tipster Ice Universe, the Galaxy Z Flip8 will weigh around 180 grams, making it 8 grams lighter than the Galaxy Z Flip7, which weighs 188 grams. Leaked Galaxy Z Flip8 render While the difference may seem minor on paper, the reduced weight could make the Galaxy Z Flip8 feel more comfortable to use. The tipster also reiterated that the Galaxy Z...

The Insta360 X6 appears to be nearing its official debut. Ahead of the expected launch, WinFuture's Roland Quandt has shared the action camera's marketing images, key specifications, and expected European pricing. The leaked marketing images suggest that the Insta360 X6 will arrive with a noticeably more compact design, although its overall look remains largely in line with the Insta360 X5. Like its predecessor, the camera features a fisheye lens on both the front and the back. The display now sits directly below the rear camera, while the power and record buttons, as well as the...

Google is expected to unveil the Pixel 11 Pro Fold alongside the rest of the Pixel 11 lineup at its Made by Google event on August 12. Ahead of the launch, a new leak has surfaced, giving us a look at the foldable in a new color option. The latest leak, courtesy of Mystic Leaks, gives us a look at the Pixel 11 Pro Fold in a new Pine colorway, which appears to be a light shade of green. The image also gives us another look at the phone's light gold frame and redesigned rear camera module. The camera cutouts now house both the LED flash and the microphone. Earlier leaked renders...
