We start year 2024 with a brand-new leader in our trending chart and one that might stay there for a while longer. The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will only become official on January 17, but it's already the most popular phone in our database. Behind that we have the Redmi Note 13 Pro and Redmi Note 13 Pro+, which just made their debut in India and will go global on January 15. Long-time favorite Galaxy A54 is in fourth, ahead of the outgoing Galaxy S23 Ultra. We then have another member of Samsung's upcoming trio, the vanilla Galaxy S24, in sixth. The Redmi Note 13 and Redmi Note 12...

Hi there, I’m Hristo, the lead news editor here at GSMArena and I have the honor of wrapping up this year’s installment of the "My top 5" series. Being arguably the biggest foldables fan at the office I don’t share the sentiment expressed by some of my colleagues that the year was boring. Granted, the bar phones have been a bit meh for a good while, but incremental upgrades are what you get in a mature market. The foldable space, on the other hand was booming and I’m loving every bit of it. I couldn’t quite fit within the 5 phones required by the format, so I’ll begin with a couple...

Samsung’s latest flagship tablets are powerful – but pricey. The good news is that the Galaxy Tab S9 series prices are already starting to fall. The FE models are cheaper but less capable too and sometimes you need the extra grunt of that Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. The smallest tablet of Tab S9 trio has an 11” display (2,560 x 1,600px) and an 8,400mAh battery. Unlike the other two, the base configuration here has 8GB of RAM and 128GB storage. Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Wi-Fi £120 off Read...

A little less than a year later the OnePlus Ace 3 arrives to replace its predecessor. Comparing the two shows only a few upgrades, but they are important ones. OnePlus Ace 3 The Ace series picks a performant but reasonably priced chipset, pairs it with a large OLED display and a fast-charging battery and keeps the price to mid-range levels. Last year’s Ace 2 had a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, this year the Ace 3 gets the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. OnePlus waited a few months to a year after these chips first launched to get a better price on them. And that’s a solid strategy, old flagship...

Maybe it’s time to try something new in the new year – how about a foldable phone? If you always feel like you need a larger display, something like the OnePlus Open will give you a tablet-sized 7.82” inner display to work with. And it’s a high-quality LTPO panel with 120Hz maximum refresh rate and 10-bit colors with Dolby Vision and 2,800 nits peak brightness. The outer display is pretty good too, a 6.31” panel with sightly above FHD+ resolution (20:9 aspect ratio). It’s the same type of LTPO 120Hz 10-bit panel with 2,800 nits peak brightness. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen...

It’s not too pricey, it’s not too big and there are few that are better specced than it – but the nubia Z60 Ultra still needs to prove itself in reviews, judging by last week’s poll. We spotted some concerns in the comments, so let’s clear those up first. The phone does have stereo speakers with the earpiece doubling as the second channel. This has been confirmed by people who received their phones early (shipping is supposed to start on January 15, but some pre-orders were sent out early). The engineers managed to fit this in despite the razor thin bezel on top and the lack of a...
