Oppo is expected to bring the Reno13 series just six months after introducing the Reno12 phones in China. According to Digital Chat Station, the midranger lineup will be introduced on November 25, and we already said it should bring devices with increased battery capacity. Oppo launches new Reno phones every six months, so the arrival of the new lineup is not unexpected. We are likely to see a Reno13 and Reno13 Pro, and while we don't know virtually anything about the former, some specs about the latter did appear online. The new phone is said to feature a quad-curved 6.78” LTPO...

There was a series of high-profile announcements this week and even though it's going to be months before some of the phones go global everyone was paying attention. The Xiaomi 15 Pro ended up as the most popular phone in our database in week 44, just edging another Snapdragon 8 Elite newcomer - the Oneplus 13. Last week's champion, the Samsung Galaxy A55, had to settle for third, while the Galaxy S24 Ultra dropped to fourth position. [#InlinePriceWidget, 12771, 1#] The vanilla Xiaomi 15 sits in fifth ahead of the Redmi Note 13 Pro that somehow retained its sixth spot amidst...

If you are eyeing the Galaxy S24 FE, you may be wondering what makes it different from the Galaxy S24 proper and which one is the better phone to get. While these two are very different devices size-wise, we can see how somebody might look into both for the cheapest entry into the Galaxy S24 family. Of course, there are other considerations besides price to go over since, if that is the only concern, the decision is obvious – the S24 FE is still the cheaper device of the two. That said, we'll do our best to quickly and concisely go over the main comparison points between the S24 FE...

This was a week of Mac releases, kicking off with a new iMac on Monday. It has a 24” display and is powered by the M4 chip. Note that there are two chips, both called “M4” – one with 8 CPU cores and 8 GPU cores and one with 10 CPU cores and 10 GPU cores. The 24” display is the same 4.5K panel as the previous model, but now you can have it with nano-texture glass (but it’s a $200 upgrade). If you need more displays, the Thunderbolt can drive two 6K 60Hz external displays or one 8K 120Hz display. That’s on the pricier variant, anyway, which has four Thunderbolt 4 cores. The cheaper one...

Last week Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon 8 Elite and this week we got the first phones with the flagship SoC. Xiaomi, OnePlus, and Honor all unveiled phones. The OnePlus 13 has a triple 50MP Hasselblad-branded camera system and a massive 6,000mAh battery. The phone is out in China, starting at CNY 4,499 ($632) for the 12/256GB model. The Xiaomi 15 Pro has an even larger 6,100mAh battery and a 50MP Leica-branded camera system with a 5x telephoto with closeup abilities. The 15 Pro is out in China, starting at CNY 5,299 ($742) for its 12/256GB version. The vanilla Xiaomi 15 has a...

After Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon 8 Elite, multiple companies lined up to launch flagships based on the new chipset. Xiaomi did so or rather it unveiled two-thirds of its new flagship series – the vanilla and Pro models, while the expected Ultra model should arrive a few months later. The common features between the two Xiaomi models include the new chipset, of course, and the much larger battery capacity compared to the 14-series, thanks to Silicon-Carbon tech. Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro at a glance The Xiaomi 15 Pro also flaunts a new 120mm periscope (5x) for its 50MP...

Last week’s poll shows that the Oppo Find X8 series has strong potential but also several hurdles to overcome in its fight with other recent flagships. Let’s start with the more popular model. That is the Oppo Find X8 Pro, of course. Unless reviews uncover issues with this phone, it’s looking like a strong contender with half of voters expressing interest. There would be more, but the phone is a bit pricey (not surprising for a just-announced flagship). Availability is an issue (for both the Pro and vanilla models). Older Find X models are not available in Europe, not in India...

Xiaomi's Redmi K80 series is apparently inching towards a release, as it has now passed through the CQC certification authority.

Most wireless earbuds have one crucial flaw—they have a tough time staying in your ears. That’s especially annoying if you’re working out, running, or simply walking about. Enter the Nothing Ear (open), which adds clever hooks that go around your ear to secure the buds in place. As their name suggests, these are Nothing’s first open-fit earbuds. They omit the in-ear silicone tips and instead place their 14.2mm drivers next to your ear canal. Nothing developed a new Sound Seal System with directional speakers to keep sound leakage at bay. You get the now signature Nothing look...
