Honor Magic V3 and Magic Vs3 images leak

Honor is announcing the Magic V3 and Magic Vs3 foldable smartphones at a special event in China on July 12, as revealed by the brand itself earlier today. The Magic V3 has been teased to be even slimmer than the Magic V2, which launched in 2023 and is still the thinnest foldable smartphone. The Magic Vs3 is expected to be a more affordable version of the V3. Now images for both have leaked, showing their designs. For the V3 unfortunately all we get is part of the back, but it's enough to spot the very unique camera island shape. Of course Honor will use fake leather on at least some...

Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 image leaks

The Xiaomi Mix Fold 4 will be the new thinnest foldable on the market when it arrives, according to a rumor from May, presumably taking the crown from the Honor Magic V3 which is launching next week. Today an official-looking image leaked showing the Mix Fold 4's back, in a version with fake leather (there may be others using glass, we're not sure). Do note that this was labeled as a work in progress, so some aspects may change before now and the phone's launch.

Google Pixel 8a vs. Pixel 7a

In case you are eyeing the new Google Pixel 8a, you are probably wondering why the extra few bucks for a seemingly similar to last year's Pixel 7a phone. After all, they are both touted as perhaps the best cameraphones in their respective price ranges. And we agree for the most part. By examining the specs sheets alone, it's quite evident that the upgrades this year are rather modest. But there's more than meets the eye, as is almost always the case. Stick around to see if the €100 price difference is justified by the newer model. Table of Contents: Design Display Battery...

All four iPhone 16 models will have A18 chips

Last year Apple launched the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus with the A16 Bionic chip, and the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max with the A17 Pro, introducing even more differentiation between the Pro and non-Pro models. This wasn't very well received, and it turns out to be an especially egregious move in hindsight now, when you consider that only the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max support Apple Intelligence, precisely because of the chipset. The good news is that it seems like Apple isn't going to do the same thing this year. According to code discovered in Apple's backend, all four...

Apple Intelligence might get a paid tier

Apple's marketing this year will most likely be all about AI - aka Apple Intelligence, the suite of AI features it unveiled last month alongside iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia. Apple Intelligence will be in beta even after the full launch of these OSes this fall, but still free to use - that is, of course, if you have a compatible device like an iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max, or, presumably, one of the iPhone 16 family, while on the Mac and iPad side you need one with Apple's M-series chips. Apple Intelligence may not however stay free forever, according to a new report from...
