Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Wide to have the same selfie camera improvement as the Fold8

A few days ago a rumor claimed that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 would have a smaller hole punch for the selfie camera on its cover display, and the difference was quite noticeable. Today, the same source claims to have confirmed the fact that the Galaxy Z Fold Wide (or whatever it ends up being called) will have a similarly small hole-punch for its cover display's selfie camera too. Both of these will apparently be the smallest hole punches Samsung's ever had on its foldables. The Galaxy Z Fold Wide is rumored to be unveiled right alongside the Fold8, most likely in July, at...

vivo Y600 Pro arrives with 10,200mAh Si-C battery and Dimensity 7300e

In just two generations, vivo has nearly doubled the battery capacity of its Y-series Pro smartphones. The Y400 Pro, which launched last June, arrived with a 5,500mAh battery, which is pretty average for midrangers these days. The Y500 Pro followed in November with a significant bump up to 7,000mAh, but the freshly announced Y600 Pro makes them both feel tiny thanks to its 10,200mAh Si-C battery. That’s a full 38Wh battery inside a smartphone, and it features fourth-generation silicon anode technology with 15% silicon content and an energy density of 886Wh/L. Judging by the...

vivo X300 Ultra (global) unboxing

Hey guys! We've already done an unboxing of the vivo X300 Ultra, but that was the Chinese model. Today, we've also got the global variant of the phone, so let's unbox it as well. The retail package is the same - you've got a color-matching case (black, in this case), a 100W charger, and a USB-C cable. Unboxing the phone Our Global unit is the black one; it's understandably identical to the Chinese model, which is the Silver one. They even have the same 6,600mAh battery, so no milliamp deduction for European users in this case, it seems. The rest of the specs are...

Google is rolling out a fully customizable Multiview in YouTube TV and testing new YouTube Live ads

Let’s start with YouTube TV first – the company’s live broadcast TV offering exclusive to the US. Users might know that the platform already has a Multiview feature that allows viewing two, three or even four channels all at once. Why? Well, besides brain-rot optimization, there are actually some practical use cases, like during a busy sports season when you want to keep an eye on multiple matches at once. Google knew that was the typical case and originally rolled out Multiview through “suggested” Multiview setups that the platform curated automatically for the user. Those are still...

Google might be doing away with the Fitbit brand

There is no doubt that Fitbit still has enormous brand recognition. Whether or not the company’s current offerings are your best option is certainly debatable, but the make carries a lot of weight. Well, who better to potentially start killing it off than Google? The company certainly has a dark track record of mishandling brands and products. The situation might not be too bad at the moment, though. We are certainly only piecing clues together, and there is no formal announcement yet. Still, people noticed that on the software side of things, in some markets (mostly European), on the...

Google Photos AI Enhance is now live for all users

Google seems to be working hard on expanding its editing options in Google Photos. We recently saw the online titan add a quick facial touch-up feature. Now another similar feature has gone live. It is a very simple and straightforward “AI Enhance” button that sits beside the Enhance and Dynamic buttons that were already present in the Auto tab in the image editor. We tried it for ourselves, and while it can restore highlights and shadows quite effectively and deal with common issues caused by bad lighting and boost colors slightly, it is nothing truly spectacular in any way....

Samsung Galaxy Buds4 Pro review

Introduction and unboxing Samsung owns Harman, which is the parent company of several high-profile audio brands, many of which make headphones. Yet you will find very few Samsung-branded headphones outside of the Galaxy Buds series. The company hasn’t even released over-ear headphones in years – in short, Samsung is betting that the Galaxy TWS buds are the only headphones that most people need. We have the new Samsung Galaxy Buds4 Pro in our ears right now – they are the best of the three-tier structure that Samsung settled on (FE, vanilla and Pro). We think these are a notable...

New batch of Sony Xperia 1 VIII renders detail its dimensions

We’ve got a new batch of renders for the upcoming Xperia 1 VIII, and they are our best look at the device yet. According to MyMobiles, we’re looking at the finalized design, and the source assures us they are based on the same CAD data used by Sony suppliers. They depict a familiar design upfront with a tall and narrow-looking display with the front-facing camera integrated inside the top bezel next to the earpiece. Earlier renders suggested we might see a punch-hole cutout approach, but it seems that’s not going to be the case. The new renders suggest the bezel width will be unchanged...

iPhone 18 now rumored to get one key upgrade after all

The iPhone 18 was recently rumored to come with some downgrades to keep costs low, including a display material first used in the iPhone 14 Pro in 2022. However, it's not all bad news for the iPhone 18, apparently. According to a new report, the device will come fitted with 12GB of RAM. That's up from 8GB on its predecessor, so it's quite a jump, especially seeing as how we're currently in the middle of a RAM pricing crisis thanks to AI data centers using up all of the production capacity. The iPhone 18 is said to be powered by Apple's upcoming A20 chipset, made on a 2nm process by...

OPPO Find X9 Ultra Hasselblad Earth Explorer Kit hands-on

This is the OPPO Find X9 Ultra Hasselblad Earth Explorer Kit, a fancy name for the Find X9 Ultra's photography kit. But a fancy name is fitting for such a fancy product. While vivo's X300 Ultra photography kit attaches either a 200mm or a 400mm teleconverter lens to the phone, the Oppo Hasselblad kit has a single option that sits in between - a 300mm lens. But it's a longer lens that gets longer still if you use the provided lens hood. Here's what's in the box. You get a case for the phone with a very compact built-in grip; the lens with a body cap, a lens cap, and a lens hood; a...

Samsung Galaxy Book6 Edge with Snapdragon X2 Elite chip leaks

Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Book6 series of laptops at CES in January – those were powered by Intel’s new 18A Core Ultra Series 3 processors. There is an Edge model coming too – “Edge” is what Samsung calls its ARM-powered laptops. We know this because German retailer Cyberport jumped the gun and published the Samsung Galaxy Book6 Edge page on its online store. This appears to be the base 16” model with 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. The whole kit costs a hefty €2,200. The laptop is powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite, specifically the X2E-88-100 variant.

Samsung's mobile division may be facing its first-ever annual loss because of crazy memory prices

Samsung’s MX division (which builds its smartphones) may be facing its first-ever annual loss – meanwhile, the folks over at Device Solutions (where the memory business is housed) posted guidance for a record-breaking Q1. You have already figured out that there is a single cause for these two events. To spell it out, the soaring prices of DRAM and NAND memory are eating into the margins. According to the analysts at Counterpoint, the bill of materials (BoM) for a flagship phone ($800+) is predicted to rise by $100-$150. Memory makes up the most with 23% of the total going towards RAM and...

Honor 600 in for review

Now that we've unboxed the Honor 600 Pro, it's time to do the same with the Honor 600. Just like the Pro, the Honor 600 ships with a USB cable and nothing more. You'd need to supply your own case and charger. So, how does the Honor 600 differ from its sibling? Well, from the outside, it doesn't really. The only telltale sign is the missing third camera lens on the back for the zoom camera - the Honor 600 only has a wide-angle and an ultrawide. On the upside, the 200MP main camera and the 12MP ultrawide are the same as those on the Pro. In the hand, the Honor 600 feels just as...

Oppo Watch X3 Mini arrives with a smaller footprint than the Watch X3

Oppo launched the Watch X3 in China last month, and now it's unveiled the Watch X3 Mini to go along with it. As the name implies, this is smaller, and it probably won't surprise you to see that its design seems to be more blingy since that's usually what smartwatch makers assume will appeal more to women. We're not sure if that's true or not, but given the smaller size, that alone might make this a much better option for women than the 47mm Watch X3. The Watch X3 Mini has a 1.32-inch AMOLED screen with 466x466 resolution, 1,000-nit peak brightness, and a sapphire crystal on top. The watch...

Samsung to retire old LPDDR4 RAM and move production to LPDDR5

Reports from people familiar with the DRAM market say that Samsung is accepting last orders for the LPDDR4 and LPDDR4X memory chips. Production will likely continue throughout 2026 in order to fulfill all orders. Once LPDDR4 and LPDDR4X modules are phased out, Samsung will convert the existing production lines to LPDDR5 manufacturing in the first quarter of 2027. It's no surprise that Samsung is shifting its efforts toward the newer DRAM generation, given the memory semiconductor supercycle that's upon us. This will secure Samsung higher revenue in the coming year as DRAM prices...
