Apple just unveiled the iPhone 17 Pro series, and these may very well be the most exciting new iPhones in quite some time. It all starts with an impressive new redesign that centers on a move away from titanium and back towards aluminum. Apple forged a unibody from Series 7000 aluminum for the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max that is then anodized on the outside. The aluminum comes in three colors: a refined silver, a deep blue, and a new striking cosmic orange. There's Ceramic Shield glass on both sides - a smaller portion on the back, just below the cameras, and the new...
The iPhone Air may have stolen the show at Apple's big event today with its thinness, the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max may have the best features, but the iPhone 17 also exists. It made its official debut as well, and it's actually a pretty impressive upgrade. It comes with a bigger and brighter 6.3-inch Super Retina XDR screen that, for the first time in a non-Pro iPhone, features ProMotion - adaptive refresh rate up to 120Hz. Thanks to this, you also get the Always-On display, showing the time, widgets, and Live Activities at a glance, since the refresh rate can go down to 1Hz when the...
The iPhone 17 Air brings the biggest design change in recent memory, and goes all-in on the forgotten focus of slim and light phones. At 5.6mm, it’s the thinnest iPhone to date. Apple calls it “a paradox you have to hold to believe”. It’s actually replacing the not-so-popular iPhone 16 Plus, so it gets a big 6.5-inch LTPO Super Retina OLED display with ProMotion 120Hz refresh rate. It also features the updated Ceramic Shield 2 protection and up to 3,000 nits brightness. Reaching the slim and light design required some sacrifices, and the most obvious one is around the back,...
As expected, at its big event today Apple made the AirPods Pro 3 official. These come with better bass and a wider soundstage, as well as twice the ANC performance of the AirPods Pro 2 thanks to the use of new foam ear tips (in five sizes) and improved tech. In fact, Apple boasts that they have the best ANC of any in-ear wireless headphones. And you get 8 hours of music listening on one charge with ANC on, 33% more than in the AirPods Pro 2. The transparency mode should sound more natural, and battery life is up to 10 hours in this mode. The Hearing Aid feature is now available in the UK...
The Magic V5 is doing extremely well, sales-wise, for Honor in Europe, and one of the main selling points of this phone, aside from the fact that it folds and how thin it is, has to be its battery capacity. [#InlinePriceWidget,13982,1#] At 5,820 mAh, it's much larger than a lot of non-folding phones' cells today, especially from companies that aren't Chinese, not to mention their foldables. If you're wondering just how long that battery could last you, one answer apparently is 'longer than it takes an elite speed reader to read the world's longest novel'. There's video proof, Honor...

The Oppo A6 Pro is official, and it's one tough smartphone. Rated for IP66, IP68, and IP69, it can handle 8,000KPa of hot water pressure, can soak in 1.5 meters of water for half an hour, and can be used with wet or oily hands. Oppo says that the A6 Pro can resist a drop of 2.5 meters, continuous drops from 1.5 meters, and can even last up to 1,830 times if dropped from half a meter. This rigidity is achieved by a combination of aviation-grade aluminum in the frame and the Crystal Shield glass upfront, which has a drop resistance of 160% over the previous generation. But it's...
A few days ago, leakster Digital Chat Station revealed that the vivo X300 Ultra will be the world’s first phone with two 200MP cameras, now the leakster is back with some clarifications on the cameras in question. The main module will feature the IMX09E, while the periscope will use the IMX09A. We’re not entirely sure what the differences between the E and A sensors are, but DCS goes on to detail the E version (which goes in the main cam). It will be a 1/1.12” sensor with 0.7µm pixels fabbed on a 22nm node. It will feature “Hybrid Frame HDR” technology, which seems to be a marketing...
