The Motorola Moto G Play (2023) unveiled last December is due for a successor. Motorola hasn't divulged anything about the Moto G Play (2024) yet, but thanks to OnLeaks and SMARTmania, we know what the smartphone will look like. The Motorola Moto G Play (2024) packs a centered punch-hole display and, expectedly, has a thick chin. Around the back, it has a rectangular camera bump with two circles, but only one houses a camera since the other is for the flash. The Moto G Play (2023) had three rear cameras. The Motorola Moto G Play (2024) also has flat frames, with the volume button...
In 2023, we reviewed more than 110 phones. One of the tests we run evaluates the quality of the loudspeaker setup. Besides the output quality, we also measure sheer loudness. Curious as always, we dug into the numbers, and we present you the Top 15 loudest smartphones from the past year. Motorola smartphones have some serious presence. Apparently, the company’s phones are often tuned for loudness. Tecno also stands out for having two Phantom phones featured on the list. Loudest reviewed phones of 2023 Motorola ThinkPhone -21.6 ...

Tecno made the Spark 20C official in November, then the Spark 20 and Spark 20 Pro were unveiled earlier this month. There was always going to be a fourth member in the family, however, one that we previously thought would be fully unveiled in January. We're talking about the Tecno Spark 20 Pro+, the highest-end of the bunch, but there's a twist. It's already been listed on Tecno's official website, though not with a full list of specs. Tecno Spark 20 Pro+, from left to right, in Temporal Orbits, Lunar Frost, Radiant Starstream, Magic Skin 2.0 Green We do however get plenty...
2023 offered plenty of new TWS earbuds options at varying prices. It wasn’t easy to single out the very best earbuds that passed through our office but we believe the following options impressed us enough during our reviews to deserve a spot on the list. We only included models that were launched in 2023 and which we reviewed so you'll notice that buds from Samsung, Apple and some other big names are absent. We'd also like to hear which TWS buds impressed you in the past year, so feel free to share your opinion in the comments section. Sony WF-1000XM5 Apart from their absurdly long...
Today in China, Honor made the X50 Pro official. The phone comes with a 6.78-inch 1,200x2,652 120 Hz OLED screen, with 1,920 Hz PWM dimming and 10-bit color support and an embedded fingerprint sensor. It isn't, however, an LTPO panel, so it will only switch between 60 Hz and 120 Hz, no other steps. At the helm sits Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset, which is getting a bit long in the tooth now that the 8 Gen 3 is already out, isn't it? Anyway, on the rear we get a 108 MP primary camera with f/1.75 aperture and a 1/1.67" type sensor. There's also a decorative 2 MP sensor on the other...
Oppo announced the Reno11 and Reno11 Pro mid-rangers for the Chinese market back in November, and now it looks like the company is getting ready to unveil their global counterparts. According to a usually reliable tipster over on X, the launch for India and global markets could take place on January 11 - which, might we add, would be very fitting (Reno11, January 11, get it?). The international Reno11 is rumored to sport the MediaTek Dimensity 1080 SoC, a slightly changed camera bump compared to its Chinese counterpart, and support for 67W SuperVOOC fast wired charging. Exclusive:...
OnePlus is introducing the Buds 3 on January 4 alongside the Ace 3 smartphone. The design of the TWS earphones leaked earlier this year, and now we can confirm the leak was correct – Buds 3 will look a lot like the Buds Pro 2. The new audio wearables also claim to provide flagship-tier audio quality thanks to the dual drivers. OnePlus even posted a graph claiming the Buds 3 will be much better than an unnamed competitor across five key aspects. OnePlus Buds 3 features The dual-design solution has been part of the Buds Pro lineup, and now the non-Pro is also getting it. It...
