Right at the end of last year, Honor introduced the “Play” series in China with an entry-level 5G phone, the Play 60A. Now a nearly identical device has appeared in a store in the United Arab Emirates as the X6d. And that’s not the end of the story. The Honor X6d is very similar to the Play 60A – the main difference is the upgraded 50MP f/2.0 camera (the 60A only has a 13MP f/2.2 camera).

Samsung expects that demand for its memory chips will remain high not just this year, but also in 2027. Song Jai-hyuk, the CTO of Samsung’s Device Solutions (which makes chips), spoke at Semicon Korea and revealed some interesting details.
