[#InlinePriceWidget,14320,1#] As always, the entry point is from the back, after heating up the adhesive holding the back glass in place. The display connector can only be accessed through the back, which means you can't just replace the screen - you basically have to disassemble the whole phone just to get to the screen's connector. Samsung's battery release mechanism is praised, and is even...
OnePlus India today announced that the OnePlus Nord 6 will be launching in the Indian market on April 7. The OnePlus Nord 6 is a rebranded OnePlus Turbo 6 that was launched in the Chinese market earlier this year. It is largely a gaming-focused device, as that seems to be the general direction OnePlus is heading towards these days. The phone runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, and has a 165Hz display, a first for the segment. Having said that, as we have seen with previous OnePlus devices, refresh rates above 120Hz will only be accessible in select games. Other features...

The company says it's "an interactive way to follow the connections...
Things are not looking bright for the OnePlus India branch.

After a lengthy teaser campaign, the OnePlus 15T has finally made its debut in China. It arrives as the direct successor to last year’s OnePlus 13T with upgrades across the board, including the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, and an even larger 7,500mAh Si-C battery with speedier 100W wired and 50W wireless charging.

The Samsung Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 will be made official in less than 24 hours, but some stores can’t wait that long. Yesterday, we saw the two models listed in South Africa and today they have surfaced at a store in Kenya. The Galaxy A37 shows three memory configurations: 6/128GB, 8/128GB and 8/256GB. The store only lists a pricing range instead of individual prices, KES 39,000 to KES 57,000. This converts to $300 to $440, but each region shows different prices since there are different local taxes. Anyway, this range presumably covers the lowest and highest spec, which leaves only the...
