Realme’s GT series has emerged as one of the best value-for-money flagships in recent years – challenging even OnePlus, which held that title for a long time. The GT 7 Pro had a good run as one of the more affordable Snapdragon 8 Elite phones out there. Now, its successor promises even more value. [#InlinePriceWidget, 14245, 1#] The Realme GT 8 Pro uses the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and that is not the only upgrade over the GT 7 Pro. The screen is sharper (6.79” 1440p+, 144Hz vs. 6.78” 1264p+, 120Hz), the battery is bigger (7,000mAh vs. 6,500mAh) and the camera is...
Technological progress is irreversible – or is it? The OnePlus 15 has found itself in the midst of a controversy because several of its components are seen as downgrades compared to the OnePlus 13. Just compare the reception in the OnePlus 13 poll from last year - the hype was tangible. The screen? 1272p+ instead of 1440p+. The camera? Smaller sensors in the main (1/1.56” vs. 1/1.43”) and the telephoto module (1/2.76” vs. 1/1.95”). The price? Basically the same. And that is the central point of the argument – the OnePlus 15 costs about as much as a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra right...
Oppo unveiled the K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro in China in July and later introduced them in India. We haven't heard from Oppo about the launch of the K15 series yet, but reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has shared key specs of an unannounced smartphone that could be the Oppo K15 Turbo Pro. According to DCS, this unannounced mid-range smartphone, featuring a "waterproof" and "theoretically dustproof" cooling fan for active cooling, is powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC. That's why many believe it's the K15 Turbo Pro since the K13 Turbo Pro also had a cooling fan. Oppo...
The focus during Black Friday shopping is mostly on new stuff – but some old, refurbished gadgets deserve some love too. Here are some refurbished iPhones (some of them in good enough condition for the renewed premium label). The iPhone 15 Pro is a couple of generations old, but it still offers modern features like an LTPO display, USB-C charging, satellite connectivity and UWB. It’s before the switch to high resolution telephoto and ultra-wide cameras, though, both modules are 12MP. On the plus side, the 48MP main has a large 1/1.28” sensor. ...
OnePlus launched the OnePlus Ace 6 in China last month, and we'll soon see the brand unveil the OnePlus Ace 6T. We don't have the OnePlus Ace 6T's launch date yet, but thanks to reliable leakster Evan Blass, we know what this smartphone will look like. Blass shared two official-looking renders of the OnePlus Ace 6T on X, revealing the phone's design. It has a punch-hole display on the front, a dual-camera setup on the rear, and a power key on the right side of the frame, accompanied by a volume rocker. On the left side is what's likely the customizable Plus Key we saw on the OnePlus 15 and...
There's been a lot of talk surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra's battery size. Some rumors claimed the S26 Ultra's battery will be larger than the Galaxy S25 Ultra's, which is 5,000 mAh, while others said it will be the same. Now, a new leak from China claims the Galaxy S26 Ultra will pack a slightly larger battery. According to the source, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will pack a 5,200 mAh battery. That's hardly an upgrade, but it's a step in the right direction since the past few Ultra models shipped with a 5,000 mAh battery under the hood. Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra's leaked...

According to a new research note by analyst Jeff Pu, Apple's upcoming iPhone 17e will come with a camera upgrade. Specifically, it will get the same 18MP selfie camera as the rest of the iPhone 17 family. This was introduced with the iPhone 17 series, so it's both great and rather surprising to see Apple extending it to the cheapest model in the lineup so quickly - it's not often the company does something like this. The new camera uses a square sensor, which lets you take vertical or horizontal selfies without needing to move the phone. Pu says the iPhone 17e will arrive "in...
