A new Poco smartphone, the C81 Pro, is on the way. This was revealed because it was just certified for sale in Thailand by NBTC. It has the model number 25128PC17G, and the certification confirms that it's going to lack 5G support. That and the fact that it's a member of Poco's entry-level C-series means we should expect a low-end device. It was also certified in January by SDPPI in Indonesia, but at the time it was identified as the Poco C81. In the meantime, it seems to have gained the Pro suffix - this is the same device. It's also expected to be sold in some markets as the Redmi A7...

Apple is obviously facing significant hurdles with the development of its own AI-powered Apple Intelligence and the upgraded virtual assistant Siri. The company first announced Apple Intelligence during WWDC 2024, but failed to deliver. On top of that, Mark Gurman reported that the upgraded Siri won't make it into the iOS 26.4 update later this year, due to issues that came out during internal testing. However, that story was based on an internal report by one of Apple's employees. A company executive was asked about this by CNBC and the answer was simple yet reassuring: "Still on...
Sony has introduced a new color for its flagship wireless WH-1000XM6 headphones. Not to be confused with the recently launched WF-1000XM6, which are the in-ear model. The WH-1000XM6 will now be available in Sand Pink. This is a very light, pastel shade of pink that really challenges the notion of what pink really is. You get the same soft-touch matte texture all over with a fine speckled finish when viewed up close. Completing the look are rose gold highlights around the hinges. The Sand Pink is the fourth color option for these headphones, which were previously...
