Back in May, Apple was rumored to be testing a 200MP camera for an upcoming iPhone, but unfortunately no other details were shared at that point. 200MP cameras are becoming very prevalent in the Android world, so it makes sense that Apple would want to experiment with the tech and see if it fits its requirements. Today a Morgan Stanley investor note claims Apple has made up its mind and will use a 200MP camera in the iPhone 21 coming out in 2028. With regard to the naming we're using here, Apple is widely expected to go up to iPhone 20 in 2027 to mark the 20th anniversary of the launch of...

Unlike basically all of its competitors, OnePlus decided to stay out of the Pro and Ultra branding game many years ago - for smartphones at least. Its flagships have just a number and no additional suffix, but according to a new rumor from a tipster over on X, that's about to change this year. Apparently people have been asking OnePlus for a Pro or Ultra flagship device, and the company has listened, planning to deliver this with the OnePlus 16. It's still unclear if we'll get the OnePlus 16 Pro or OnePlus 16 Ultra alongside the 'vanilla' OnePlus 16, but one of them is allegedly...

It's liquid cooling, "one of the smartphone world's most advanced", according to the brand.

Just yesterday, TCL announced its latest NxtPaper smartphone – the NxtPaper 70 Pro at CES 2026. We’ve now managed to get our hands on a unit, and these are our first impressions. The headline feature on the NxtPaper 70 Pro is its massive 6.9-inch NxtPaper 4.0 display. Like all entries in the NxtPaper lineup, this is an IPS LCD panel with a matte coating that reduces glare and reflections. This makes everything from reading to watching videos much easier on the eyes. It’s kind of like an e-ink display, though you still get full 100% sRGB color gamut coverage, an adequate FHD+...
