Motorola Edge 60 in for review

Motorola's Edge 60 series is here, so it's time to unbox the Edge 60. But before we get to the sceneted box, a word on what's different between this green Pantone Shamrock Edge 60 and its blue Pro counterpart. The Edge 60 has the same display and camera system as the Pro, as well as the same IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance and MIL STD-810H compliance. However, the Edge 60 has a smaller 5,200mAh battery with slower charging (68W vs 90W, no wireless), a less-powerful chip (2.5GHz Dimensity 7300 vs 3.35GHz Dimensity 8350 Extreme), and one less button - the AI key on the Pro's upper left...

Honor 400 and Honor 400 Pro to feature a 200 MP main camera

The Honor 400 Lite made its debut earlier this month, and it should soon be joined by the Honor 400 and Honor 400 Pro - in May, in fact, according to a new leak from China. This also gives us some more details about the two phones. The Honor 400 is once again said to sport a 6.55" screen, smaller than its predecessor's 6.7" panel - this move was rumored before. The Honor 400's display will have "1.5K" resolution and won't be LTPO, but LTPS OLED, so the variable refresh rate won't be as flexible. Honor 400 Lite The Honor 400 Pro on the other hand will have a 6.7-inch screen with the...

Report: Samsung will be making some Snapdragon 8 Elite 2nd gen chips on a 2nm node

It seems that Qualcomm plans to dual source the 2nd generation of Snapdragon 8 Elite – Korean publication Sedaily reports that Qualcomm and Samsung have reached a deal to fab the chip on the advanced 2nm node, but also that TSMC will produce a version of the chip on a 3nm node. Samsung will be making the chips at its Hwaseong S3 factory, producing a thousand 12-inch wafers a month. These chips will be used in Galaxy devices in the second half of next year – if that is true, they will be too late for the Galaxy S26 series, so maybe the Galaxy Z Fold8 and Z Flip8 (possibly the Tab S11...

Samsung is making this Ferris wheel free for two weeks

In what may be the weirdest promo in a few weeks at least, Samsung is now advertising its Galaxy S25 series and Galaxy AI by providing everyone with a free ride on The View Ferris wheel in Brussels, Belgium, on Place Poelaert. This normally costs €10 to ride, but from May 3 until May 18, it will be free as Samsung is apparently paying for everyone's tickets. As you can see from the image above, Samsung's Galaxy AI will feature prominently on the wheel itself. The Ferris wheel lets you have a "spectacular view of the Brussels skyline", the Korean company says, and of course it...

Samsung Galaxy S21 series, Galaxy S24 FE receive One UI 7 update with Android 15

Samsung took a long time releasing the update to One UI 7, but it now finally seems to have resolved all the issues, and its rollouts are starting slightly ahead of schedule for many devices.

Samsung's One UI 8 based on Android 16 to AI summarize any online video

Samsung is currently in the process of finally rolling out One UI 7 based on Android 15 to its devices, following a months-long delay. Next up will be One UI 8, based on Android 16, which will hopefully arrive in a more timely fashion. When it does, it will have the ability to AI summarize any online video through Samsung's built-in Internet browser. This has been discovered as it's currently in testing. Once it's implemented, you will be able to AI summarize any online video you come across in Samsung's browser, and on the Galaxy S25 series the AI magic will happen entirely...

Xiaomi 16 to have the best smaller screen and biggest battery for its size

Back in March we heard that the Xiaomi 16 would have a larger screen size compared to its predecessor's 6.36-inch panel. While that rumor didn't mention a specific size for the upcoming device, now a new rumor out of China kind of contradicts it, saying the Xiaomi 16's display will be in the 6.3" range still. So that could be up to 6.39", which of course is larger than 6.36", even though by such a tiny amount that it wouldn't really be noticeable. Anyway, today's rumor goes on to claim that this will be the best and most beautiful smaller screen, coming with insanely tiny bezels and eye...

CMF Phone 2 Pro in for review

This just in - the CMF Phone 2 Pro has arrived at HQ and joining our review queue! Nothing's CMF sub-brand's first Pro phone starts at €250/£220/₹19,000 for the 8/128GB model, and you can have double the storage for €280/£250/₹21,000. The 8/256GB variant will also be available in the US for $280 via the Beta Program. Ours is the Light Green color, though we'd argue it's more of a light blue, and it ships with a USB-C cable, a transparent case, and a SIM eject tool. The phone is light for its size, it's something you'll notice right away. It's likely to do with the materials used...

OnePlus Watch 3 goes back to a reasonable price in the US

The OnePlus Watch 3's launch has been anything but smooth so far. Announced in February, it immediately went up for pre-order with a February 25 shipping date, but its release then got derailed by the "Meda in China" typo on the back. OnePlus took a few weeks to fix that error and then it started offering the watch in the US again earlier this month, but for the ridiculous new price of $499.99 (vs. $329.99 when it was announced). We assumed this was OnePlus hedging against US tariffs on Chinese goods. A few weeks have now passed and it seems like OnePlus hasn't sold too many units...

More Oppo Reno14 images leak, offering a better look at the new camera island design

Earlier this month, a leaked render of the Oppo Reno14 Pro showed a curious-looking camera island for the phone’s triple camera – now, leakster Digital Chat Station has shared images that offer a better look at that camera island from two sides, plus some additional details about the phone. The images are of the Oppo Reno14 or maybe the Pro – we still don’t know the differences between those two. It’s possible that both will have periscope telephoto cameras. That periscope – a 50MP unit with a 3.5x lens, according to the previous leak – is positioned above the flash. From the first...

Weekly poll: would you buy a vivo X200 Ultra if you could? What about a vivo X200s?

The vivo X200 Ultra is the kind of phone that is built to cause envy in those that don’t have it – which will be almost everyone outside of China, since vivo has not announced any plans to make the Ultra available outside of its home market. We know some of you will try importing it, but most can only sigh wistfully. vivo X200 Ultra The X200 Ultra builds on the already powerful hardware of the X200 Pro with a sharper display (1440p+ vs. 1260p+) and a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset taking over from the Dimensity 9400.

Deals: Moto Razr 60 and Razr 60 Ultra go on pre-order, iPhone 16 series is £100 off

Motorola unveiled its next generation foldables earlier this week – they are the first Razrs with dust resistance (IP48 rating), which is very rare in the foldable segment. Motorola also used a proper flagship chip for the Ultra, while also improving the screen, cameras and battery.

Here's when the Motorola Edge 60 Pro is launching in India

Yesterday was a big day for Motorola, as it announced the Edge 60, Edge 60 Pro, Razr 60, and Razr 60 Ultra. The Edge 60 Pro is also headed to India, the brand has now revealed, and it will have its launch over there on April 30.

Weekly poll results: half of you are already on Android 15, but many are not so lucky

Last week we asked you whether your phone has received the Android 15 update yet. Many already have, which is encouraging to see, but it’s not all rosy. Over 40% of people who responded to our poll have Android 15 running on their phone – or rather the manufacturer’s implementation of Android 15. Around a third of voters are still waiting, even though the first updates started rolling out since October (that was for the Pixels, of course). Worryingly, 20% – one in every five voters – do not have a phone eligible for v15. Extended software support windows are a relatively new trend...

Galaxy Z Fold7 rumored to be even thinner than expected, Z Flip7 to have a larger battery

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Fold7 will be unveiled in early July. Leaks are helping us build up a picture of the new foldables, though certain details keep changing. Here is the latest report from TechManiacs. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 will be significantly thinner than its 2024 predecessor. How much thinner? Previous info suggests 4.5mm unfolded and 9.5mm folded. This latest report claims it will be even thinner – only 8.2mm folded! Take this with a grain of salt as it would mean that Samsung would leapfrog the competition – the Oppo Find N5 is 8.9mm folded for example....

Turn your MacBook trackpad into a drawing tablet with the SonarPen stylus

Last year, the SonarPen 2 launched as the most affordable iPad stylus that supports pressure sensitivity. Now the company is back with an interesting new twist – the SonarPen Driver turns your MacBook’s trackpad into a drawing tablet. Trackpads on Apple laptops are quite large these days, making this a viable idea. It’s not as comfortable as a traditional drawing tablet, but it’s cheaper and more portable – the SonarPen for USB-C costs $43 and you can tuck it into your MacBook bag. The stylus works with a new driver for macOS 11 or later. Previously, it supported iPads, Androids,...

Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip FE might not be called that after all

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip FE (sometimes referred to as the Z Flip7 FE) has been rumored for months as a cheaper flip-style foldable that may be launching alongside the Galaxy Z Flip7 in early July.

Today a new report says the more affordable Samsung flip-style foldable could end up being called Galaxy Z Flip Xe, for whatever reason. Of course nothing's confirmed yet, so do only take this as a rumor and nothing more at this point. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 We do however have to wonder, if...

Today a new report from Korea confirms that date, saying there will be a Galaxy Unpacked event for it on May 13. The phone will then go up for pre-order on May 14 and will become available on May 23.

Moto G Stylus (2025) in for review

This is the Moto G Stylus (2025) and it has the stylus-equipped midrange market in the US all to its own. The phone ships with a USB-C cable and a SIM eject tool. Ours is the Pantone Gibraltar sea version and there's a Pantone Surf the Web (yes, that's the color's name), which is a similar blueish color shade. We like this Gibraltar sea unit; it has a unique sort of petrol blue hue. Both colorways have vegan leather finish, which is grippier and more interesting than plain plastic or glass. The sides of the phone are matte and quite slippery though - this clumsy typist managed to...

Samsung Galaxy A36 vs. Samsung Galaxy A35

So, you've decided to get one of Samsung's popular A3X midrangers and are now wondering whether to spring for the new Galaxy A36 model or stick with last year's Galaxy A35? It's a fair question since the two phones offer a similar experience. In the States, the Galaxy A36 costs as much as the A35 so getting the newer model is really a no-brainer.
